Chapter 159: Do You Have the Capital to Be Arrogant? [1/13 #2]
"What are you supposed to be?"
George said coldly, "So what if I am an experiment? You are just a plaything that he could discard at any time!"
"Hah, I had to do this to save my grandfather, but you, George, have willingly degraded yourself!"
Louise snorted coldly and strode away.
But before she left, she still looked in the direction where Xu Hao had disappeared. Dear Xu, if I can't get your help, then I really have no choice but to ask that devil for help.
Watching her leave, George felt an incredibly restless power surging within him, almost beyond his control. He was slightly shaken and forcefully suppressed it before quickly vanishing into the night.
...
In the car.
Xu Hao frowned slightly; he sensed a force in George that definitely didn't belong to him alone. It was erratic, fierce, and one Xu Hao had never encountered before.
Yet, he didn't think much of it, considering George's intellect wasn't the best; nothing else seemed amiss.
But just as he was deep in thought, he suddenly saw a dark figure standing in the middle of the road ahead.
Xu Hao was speechless—did they really want to scare someone to death standing in the middle of the road late at night?
However, as he got a bit closer, to his shock, he realized this person bore some resemblance to the ninjas from the Island Country!
An enemy!
Moreover, he was far more powerful than those he had encountered before; Xu Hao even felt a tinge of danger himself!
Xu Hao immediately became alert; he abruptly parked the car by the roadside and called Wang Zhong, "Protect Liu Ruyan and the others; I'll handle the rest!"
Wang Zhong promptly responded. Xu Hao was unaware that a highly skilled old man had always been following him closely.
Liu Ruyan and Qin Yao also saw the person blocking the way. Hearing Xu Hao's somewhat serious words, they quickly asked, "What's wrong? Does the other party have hostility towards us?"
Xu Hao reassured, "The person is from the Island Country; his intentions might not be good, but don't worry. Stay safe inside the car while I go take him down!"
"Be careful," the two women said in unison.
"Mhm."
Xu Hao nodded, picked up the "Feng Yi" short sword, and got out of the car.
The Island Country ninja was watching intently. As soon as he saw Xu Hao, he immediately shouted, "Fool! Hand over that item, and I might spare your life!"
Xu Hao chuckled, "You Islanders are indeed ubiquitous. You were the ones bidding at the auction, weren't you? But I didn't expect you to be so shameless! Everyone knows the auction is a fair game where the highest bidder wins.
You didn't have enough money and couldn't buy it, so now you plan to rob, just like a hundred years ago when you came to steal treasures from Huaya. So many years have passed, they say you Islanders have changed for the better, but it seems you are just as disgraceful as your ancestors!"
"Nonsense!"
The ninja retorted angrily, "You fool, I'm an esteemed Upper Ninja of the Island Country Kameda Family, Kameda Juuzou! You fool, kneel down and beg for a quick death!"
"Pfft!"
Even Liu Ruyan and Qin Yao inside the car were amused by his words.
Kameda Juuzou turned to look at Liu Ruyan and Qin Yao, his eyes gleaming as he burst out laughing, "Hahaha! Girl Hua doing work! Both, I want them all!"
Xu Hao chuckled coldly, "Quite arrogant. I like it, but even arrogance needs a foundation! A mere Islander daring to strut around on my Huaya soil!"
Kameda Juuzou roared, "Nonsense! I will kill you in a minute! Die!"
He raised his long sword and slashed towards Xu Hao.
Xu Hao mocked, "I've been holding that 'Feng Yi' gifted ancient sword, yet I've never used it. Today, it's time to let the sword taste some blood."
"Whoosh!"
The Three Foot Green Blade flashed out of its sheath!
A cold gleam flashed, causing Kameda Juuzou's eyes to dazzle.
In that moment, Xu Hao struck with his sword.
"Psh!"
The long sword, made of some unknown but immensely sharp material, cleaved through iron as if it were mud. Even though Kameda Juuzou was highly experienced in combat, he was still nicked by the sword tip, a cut over an inch long and half an inch deep appeared on his arm!
What astonished Xu Hao was that the sword had not even a single bloodstain on it!
"Haha! Good sword!"
Xu Hao laughed loudly as he swung the sword again, showcasing the swordsmanship inherited from his training.
"Nonsense!"
Kameda Juuzou, seeing that he had been wounded by a Huaya youth, was incensed beyond measure, a total disgrace for him!
He swung his long sword again, the force tremendous, almost piercing through the air.
He sneered, "Boy, I'm a Quasi Jonin, equivalent to a Great Perfection Mastery level warrior in your Huaya! Lasting a minute against me is enough for you to be proud!"
Xu Hao retorted cheekily, "In your Island Country, being merely Great Perfection Mastery level makes you a warrior? In our place, that's just a nonentity."
"Shut up! I will cleave you in one stroke!"
As a highly esteemed Quasi Jonin of the Island Country, Kameda Juuzou was incredibly proud, and seeing that he couldn't swiftly defeat Xu Hao, his rage intensified even more.
