"You won't let me go? Don't even mention not letting me go, even if you did, I wouldn't let you off. How dare you lay hands on my people, you must not know how to spell 'death'!"
Xu Hao's voice was cold as he said, "Tell me now who is behind you, and perhaps I'll spare your life. Whoever tells me, I will spare."
But, not a single person responded.
Xu Hao knew that these people had undergone strict training and getting them to betray their power was indeed difficult.
So he said coldly, "Since you aren't willing to speak now, I will take you away. Rest assured, you absolutely won't withstand my interrogation."
Ruyue was astonished at Xu Hao's speed, her eyes flickered, and she quickly asked, "Do you know Zhou Shuran?"
"Hmm? I know her, why do you bring her up?" Xu Hao responded with confusion.
"That's right, Su Yi, the Xu Hao you mentioned and the Xu Hao I'm talking about are actually the same person!" Ruyue stated with confidence.
Xu Hao kicked the four black-clad people closer together, then out of nowhere produced a rope and tied them all up.
Ruyue explained, "I am a disciple from Xuanmen, and so is Zhou Shuran. She is extremely talented and was taken as a personal disciple by the Seventh Elders, holding a very high position in the sect. I heard she came to the sect to learn after being humiliated by a man named Xu Hao in the secular world, wishing to seek revenge.
I originally thought that the Xu Hao Su Yi knew wasn't at Grandmaster Strength and couldn't be you, but it turns out the world is so small, that Xu Hao is you!"
Xu Hao was suddenly stunned, then chuckled, "No wonder I haven't seen Zhou Shuran around. I thought she'd become reclusive after I beat her, but turns out she went to learn martial arts. Regardless of how much she learns, she can't beat me anyways. She actually knows I've reached Grandmaster Level, seems like the members of the Zhou Family told her. That old man Zhou Talang looks harmless, but I didn't expect him to actually plot against me."
"Why do you say Zhou Shuran's grandfather plotted against you?" Ruyue asked, puzzled.
"Well, it's because Zhou Shuran's personality is such that she definitely wouldn't like cultivation. She used to be the pampered young mistress of the Zhou Family, with no worries or responsibilities—why would she need to cultivate? But Zhou Talang must've known about Zhou Shuran's great talent, so he wanted her to cultivate.
The best way to get someone who doesn't like to cultivate to start is to fill them with hatred. But who in Huadu would dare provoke Zhou Shuran? Even Wu Mengchong, the former top young master of Huadu, probably wouldn't dare. So, Zhou Talang needed an outsider. Nоtе: Chесk М_VLЕМРY_R fоr аny соrrесtiоns.
At that time, I was beginning to make a name for myself and had run into some conflict with Young Master Zhou, Zhou Huasheng. That's when Zhou Talang noticed me and arranged for Zhou Shuran to 'coincidentally' meet me. Everyone knows what happened after that, but Zhou Talang probably never imagined I would spank his dear granddaughter's behind," Xu Hao said with a smile, recounting the past events.
"Humph! You just like spanking girls' behinds!" Chen Suyi tossed her hair and snorted arrogantly.
Suddenly, Xu Hao stretched out his right hand, his expression became extremely serious and cold as he said, "I haven't settled accounts with you yet. Why aren't you staying put at home instead of running out to hold a concert? Couldn't you have let me know? If I hadn't arrived in time today, you all would've been dead. How am I supposed to explain this to Elder Chen? You deserve to be spanked!"
Then, under the dumbfounded stares of everyone and in the heartbroken gaze of Chen Suyi's fans, Xu Hao's right palm shot out with a "smack"!
That fierce slap landed squarely on Chen Suyi's behind, causing her intense pain and making tears wheel in her eyes.
By now, Chen Suyi's rear must have swelled up from Xu Hao's slap.
Xu Hao didn't hold back in the slightest; he had really and truly smacked Chen Suyi's behind, almost bringing tears to the ordinarily tough Chen Suyi.
Seeing that she couldn't stand steadily, Xu Hao disregarded her resistance and directly scooped her into his arms. Then, holding the rope in his left hand, he said to the still dazed Ruyue, "Let's go, we're heading back."
"Ah? Oh," Ruyue finally snapped out of her daze, then followed Xu Hao as he took his leave.
As Xu Hao held her in his arms, Chen Suyi felt terribly uncomfortable and awkward. She slapped at Xu Hao's arm while shouting, "Let me go! Let go of me, you filthy hoodlum! I can walk on my own!"
Xu Hao simply ignored her. With her in such a state from his beating, if she didn't get treatment after they returned, she definitely wouldn't recover in a week. Yet, she thought she could walk by herself?
Does she no longer care for her own body?!
It wasn't until Xu Hao and the others had left the scene, their backs gradually disappearing, that the Fusang people started to come around slowly.
They looked at each other, all somewhat at a loss.
They had never encountered such an inconceivable scene; it was all like a dream!
