Chapter 1166: Trying to Escape?
Mao Ping had already declared the Mao Family's surrender once again and expressed a willingness to compensate Xu Hao for all his demands. This information quickly spread across the forums.
On the forums, a group of people under the influence of the well-known influencer "Groundhog" seemed to see the Mao Family admitting their mistakes as a show of courage. They somehow failed to notice the fact that a Mao Family member had stolen Xu Liu Group's trade secrets, which came as quite a shock to others.
But even more bizarre was the increasing number of people jumping on this bandwagon, as if by saying these things, they could demonstrate a unique perspective on the issue, perceiving aspects that ordinary people couldn't see.
Inside the Mao Family, at this moment, Bidimi was expressing his thoughts: "Xu Hao's medical skills are so advanced that simple medical techniques won't make him falter. This is the time to use the Jiangtou Technique I learned to compete with him."
Upon hearing that Bidimi planned to use Jiangtou on Xu Hao, Lü Yuanbin frowned immediately and said, "Thinking you can curse him might be wishful thinking. With his strength, can he not withstand such simple sorcery? Forget him; even I can easily block the curses you people cast. After all, your strength is far inferior to mine. We who cultivate the Right Path techniques aren't afraid of demon cultivators, let alone some trivial Jiangtou Technique?"
Lü Yuanbin clearly held hostility towards Xu Hao, but he showed even more disdain for these sorcery techniques.
In his eyes, such techniques as Jiangtou were merely minor arts.
Seeing Lü Yuanbin holding such contempt for Jiangtou, Bidimi snorted coldly and ignored Lü Yuanbin, saying, "I know Jiangtou is nothing to Xu Hao, but are all the people around him experts? If I randomly curse his woman, it will catch Xu Hao off guard, leaving him clueless on how to respond, as he's never encountered Jiangtou before."
Mao Ping heard his words and said, "Mr. Bidimi makes a valid point. Grandmaster Yuanbin, why not let Mr. Bidimi give it a try first?"
Bidimi felt a bit displeased inside, but couldn't say much. This was Huaya's territory, and he couldn't be too arrogant, or with his limited power, if someone found him displeasing, he could end up dead without knowing how.
Lü Yuanbin pondered for a moment and said, "It's not impossible, but don't alert the enemy. If Xu Hao intends to kill you, I won't come to your rescue."
Lü Yuanbin spoke straightforwardly, knowing full well he wasn't a match for Xu Hao. He wouldn't risk his life to save Bidimi; that was absolutely out of the question.
Bidimi snorted coldly, "No need to trouble Grandmaster Lü for help."
...
Xu Hao wasn't fully aware of the happenings on the Mao Family's side.
At this moment, he was busy making protective bracelets for the women.
The recent invasion by the Gushen Sect had served as a reminder that even though he had become very powerful, those around him lacked the ability to protect themselves.
This was a big concern.
So, he had obtained some high-quality jade bracelets from his Zhu family's Jade Store, engraving formations on them and sealing some of his Qi Force inside.
Each bracelet could only withstand one attack below Grandmaster Level, but that was already excellent. Even a Grandmaster Level expert wouldn't be willing to expend so much Qi Force to craft these bracelets.
Worn over time, with the embedded formation, they could absorb the surrounding Spiritual Energy, ensuring fresh air around the wearer, prolonging life and vitality.
If auctioned to the wealthy, each could easily be worth ten million!
But now, Xu Hao was giving them all to Liu Ruyan and the women.
If those wealthy people saw this, they'd probably scramble to grab them.
The new tuberculosis cure was being produced in an orderly manner. Due to previous promotions and the sudden involvement and competition from the Mao Family, the medicine now enjoyed immense fame across Quan Huaya, even exceeding the reputation of the Xu Liu Group itself, eliminating the need for additional advertising.
Meanwhile, in a hotel in Huadu City, Zhai Guang and Lu Ziwen were scheming something.
Lu Ziwen expressed her concerns, saying, "We almost ruined Xu Hao's plans. Will he come after us? Shouldn't we hurry and escape?"
Zhai Guang, with a cold gaze towards the Xu Liu Group's direction, filled with anger and malice, spoke in a chilly tone, "Xu Hao is up on high; he may not concern himself with us small fry. But the worry is that his lackeys might come looking for trouble with us."
Lu Ziwen quickly asked, "So what do you plan to do?"
Zhai Guang let out a sinister laugh and said, "Naturally, we leave here! I've already notified my distant uncle, and he's promised to secretly send someone to Huadu to get me out."
"Then take me too! I don't want to be caught by Xu Hao's people!" Lu Ziwen said hurriedly.
"Hahaha! That's a given!" Zhai Guang replied with a cold laugh.
