Chapter 1141: Forced to Seek Help
Kidd glanced at Xu Hao, who had already entered the banquet hall, and said coldly, "It must be Xu Hao who did something behind the scenes. These two are more like they can't speak rather than choosing not to, like mutes."
You Jin Hong thought about the scene just now, feeling a chill in his heart. It did seem to be the case. If Xu Hao hadn't done anything, why couldn't the two of them speak?
"But how exactly did Xu Hao make them unable to speak?" You Jin Hong couldn't help but ask.
"Acupuncture point sealing technique." Kidd remembered that the information on Xu Hao indicated he was skilled in this. Now, it seemed only Xu Hao's acupuncture point sealing could explain it.
"This..." You Jin Hong was somewhat helpless. Who would have thought Xu Hao would do something like this?
The key is that no one here can restrain Xu Hao, so they can only let him do as he pleases.
Kidd walked into the banquet hall very reluctantly and found Xu Hao sitting at the last row of tables, resting with his eyes closed.
However, many people were watching around Xu Hao, but none dared to approach his table.
Kidd wanted to question Xu Hao, but after thinking about it, he gave up.
He didn't want to fall out with Xu Hao at this time.
And at that moment, Xu Hao, who seemed to be resting his eyes, was actually absorbing the two ability inheritance factors he just received.
Xu Hao had never heard of these things, and there was no mention of them in inherited memories, so he came up with this name himself.
Although Xu Hao could not yet visualize internally, he could sense the two ability inheritance factors in his lower dantian releasing some peculiar energy into his body.
Gradually, Xu Hao felt he had mastered Jerry's ability to become invisible, and with a thought, he immediately used it.
Jiang Xuezhun lay there holding Xu Hao's arm. She seemed to sense something, and when she turned her head, she was astonished to find that Xu Hao had disappeared!
But she was clearly still holding Xu Hao's arm!
Just as Jiang Xuezhun was about to cry out in shock, Xu Hao's figure suddenly appeared, and he covered her mouth, smiling, "Don't be afraid. I'm just testing a new ability."
Jiang Xuezhun said in amazement, "Honey, it seems like you've gained the ability of the person who can become invisible?"
"Smart indeed."
Xu Hao patted her little head, smiling, "That's right, and I've also mastered the ability of the water element user."
As he spoke, a trickle of running water appeared in Xu Hao's palm, with the motion of the water generating a breeze that blew Jiang Xuezhun's hair, leaving her completely stunned.
Sure enough, Xu Hao had mastered the ability of the water element user!
But weren't those people with abilities all supposed to inherit them?
How did Xu Hao manage to gain their powers?
Xu Hao was very pleased with this.
Devouring the Immortal Bone, capable of devouring all things, was indeed not just talk.
Moreover, the Immortal Bone was quite selective, only devouring good things unless Xu Hao actively used it.
The banquet continued as usual, but You Jin Hong was clearly not in a very happy mood, and it soon dispersed.
Xu Hao led Jiang Xuezhun out of You Jin Hong's place and drove towards a certain location.
"Honey, where are we going?" Jiang Xuezhun asked.
"To find some people to play with," Xu Hao replied with a smile.
...
In the secluded mansion in Dong Jiang City.
The red-haired man said angrily, "Damn it! Who on earth managed to leave Jerry and Casey behind!"
"Big brother, should we report this and ask for help from above?"
"Yeah, the opponent's strength is too formidable. I fear we won't be able to snatch the coin ourselves."
"Honestly, this task is beyond us. We're going up against the Biel Family. They're so wealthy, they could easily hire someone strong, and we wouldn't stand a chance."
"Quiet, all of you!"
The red-haired man said angrily, "It was just one failure! Before getting captured, Casey sent me a message saying the opponent has a super strong fighter, a Huaya person, at least a late-stage Grandmaster level. This is valuable information. The association can send someone based on this, but the benefits we'll get will be minimal."
"Big brother, as long as we survive, I don't even care about the benefits. The opponent is so strong; we just need to catch some scraps."
Seeing his brothers all losing their morale, the red-haired man was somewhat helpless, but also powerless. Facing such a strong opponent, he dared not confront them himself.
So, seeking help from the association became the best way to resolve the issue.
He reluctantly dialed the association's higher-ups, relaying the situation.
At that moment, their door was suddenly kicked open!
"Bang!"
The door was kicked down to the ground, startling everyone inside the house.
