Boom.
The words struck Master Hao like a thunderbolt, blackening his vision and whitening his face like paper, as beads of sweat fell from him like rain.
Because he knew all too well that within Lingnan, the Yu Family was not to be provoked, yet this man before him was ten times more formidable than the Yu Family.
However, Cui Que seemed to have his senses clouded by pain, and scornfully said, “Boy, is it your turn to interrupt when Master Hao speaks? You better…”
Before Cui Que could finish his words, he sensed a powerful force coming from behind and was thrown to the ground; turning his head, he discovered it was the furiously kicking Master Hao himself.
“Master Hao, you…”
Master Hao said nothing, his punches and kicks falling like rain.
Cui Que screamed like a ghost tormented by wolves.
The onlookers were all stunned by this scene.
What’s going on?
Why did this man’s mere words strike such terror in Master Hao?
After a while, Master Hao stopped. By then, Cui Que looked utterly wretched, with one arm broken and all his teeth shattered by Master Hao’s blows.
Then Master Hao cautiously looked at Xue An, bowed reverently, and said, “Mr. Xue… I was blind not to recognize Mount Tai. I deserve to die, I…”
Xue An gestured with his hand, and Master Hao immediately closed his mouth.
Then Xue An turned back to Ma Cheng and motioned for him to come over.
Confused, Ma Cheng approached, and Xue An pointed to Cui Qi on the ground.
“How did he bully you back then?”
Ma Cheng shuddered, his voice timid, “He… he…”
Cui Qi was trembling all over at this time.
Because he too recalled a rumor.
Only that person in the rumors, who was treated with such respect by Miss Yu and caused Master Hao to tremble in fear upon hearing his name.
Before Ma Cheng could even speak, Cui Qi had already flipped over and knelt on the ground, banging his head in kowtow.
“Manager Ma, no… Sir Ma, I was wrong – I deserve to die. I didn’t know you knew Mr. Xue. Please spare my life; the money I owed you will be repaid double, no! Tenfold!”
Ma Cheng was dumbfounded. He hadn’t even uttered a word, yet Cui Qi was already so fearful.
And even if Cui Que was slow to catch on, he too sensed something was terribly amiss. However, after the beating he received, he was injured all over and couldn’t move, only able to look at Xue An with utter fear as a foul smell wafted from below him.
He had been scared into wetting himself.
The scene silenced everyone.
Many had already started to discreetly retreat.
Because they too had guessed Xue An’s identity.
Besides Mr. Xue, who single-handedly annihilated the Sword Immortal and held sway over all the powerful noble families of Lingnan…
Who else could command such authority?
Xue An looked on, his face neither sad nor happy, and then addressed Ma Cheng, “Do you accept his proposal?”
Ma Cheng hesitated just a moment.
Cui Qi hurriedly said, “Sir Ma, rest assured, after tonight, all the markets in Lingnan will be yours. I will roll out of Lingnan immediately and never come back!”
It was a wise choice.
Because Cui Qi had offended both the Yu Family and Xue An.
He had no ground left to stand on in Lingnan.
Ma Cheng nodded, “Fine… alright.”
Cui Qi looked at Xue An with hopeful eyes,
Xue An waved his hand, and like receiving an imperial pardon, Cui Qi kowtowed several more times to Xue An, then got up and turned to leave.
He didn’t even bother with his cousin Cui Que lying on the ground.
And then Xue An looked towards Master Hao, who had remained bowed low, a faint smile playing on his lips as he slowly approached.
Each footstep caused Master Hao’s muscles to quiver.
