Asura Emperor Venerable

"You, all of you, kneel!" Miao Hua commanded, his voice cold and severe.

He had killed more than one person, so his deep, commanding shout naturally carried an imposing force, causing several fledgling students who hadn't managed to leave the academy to shiver uncontrollably.

People like Bu Yufeng were well aware that Miao Hua, the owner of Shuangyun Restaurant, was a trusted lieutenant under Wu Shibai, the head of Hailing Martial Hall, with his hands drenched in blood. Merely mentioning his name could silence a crying child at midnight.

Miao Hua, known as the Butcher!

"Boss Miao, this has nothing to do with us!" Bu Yufeng hurriedly passed the buck, pointing at Shi Hao, "It's all him, he was the one who beat up Young Master An, it has nothing to do with us!"

Feng Shishi and Wu Wenjun also nodded their heads hastily, their faces drained of color.

At such times, being beautiful was not as important as their own lives. They had heard that such gangs killed without blinking an eye, afterwards they would take the bodies to the mountains to bury in a pit, effectively making them vanish from the face of the earth.

Ma Dai'er was also hesitant, silent and undecided.

"Young Master An?" Miao Hua looked towards Yang Shi'an.

Yang Shi'an was now sober from the alcohol and of course couldn't act as rashly as before. Students from Starwind Academy still held a certain amount of deterrent power. If it turned into a real fight, the City Lord's Mansion would definitely conduct a strict investigation.

He gritted his teeth, not in a rush, there would be other days. Now that he knew about a beauty like Ma Dai'er at Starwind Academy, with his means, he would eventually be able to press such a pretty girl under himself on the bed.

"Everyone except these two, get out!" He pointed at Shi Hao and Liu Mang.

Hearing this, Bu Yufeng and the others were naturally overjoyed, quickly thanking Yang Shi'an and fleeing without looking back.

Only Ma Dai'er was unwilling to leave, continuously looking at Shi Hao with a worried expression.

"Dai'er!" Bu Yufeng quickly reminded her with a call.

Ma Dai'er shivered, realizing some of the stories behind Shuangyun Restaurant and what it would mean if she fell into the hands of Hailing Martial Hall… it was unthinkable!

Having thought this through, she showed a decisive look, no longer gazing at Shi Hao, and turned on her heel to leave.

Seeing this, Liu Mang couldn't help showing a look of disappointment.

"Stone, I've been dumped," he said.

He and Shi Hao had stepped forward for this girl's sake, but Ma Dai'er had chosen to protect herself, abandoning them. Naturally, this left him disappointed.

Shi Hao patted his shoulder, "No worries, what great man lacks a wife! Trust me, women will be lining up for you in the future."

"Haha, Stone, you really don't know how to console people!" the fatty laughed bitterly. He wasn't bad-looking, but he was too fat and lacked the determination to diet, getting married would be good enough for him.

Shi Hao smiled, with his support, it wouldn't take long for the fatty to become a great master, and in Hua Yuan Nation, strength was the most important thing.

Why was the Chu Family the Royal Family today?

It was because their ancestors had established their rule with blood and corpses.

With strength, you possessed everything.

"Today, I will make you two shed a layer of skin!" Yang Shi'an said through gritted teeth, he still didn't dare to kill — openly murdering a disciple of Starwind Academy would mean even the Yang Family couldn't protect him.

"Fat Lord's skin is thick and flesh is stout, I'm not scared of you!" The fatty was ready to go all out, defiant to the end.

"Get them," Miao Hua ordered without further ado, directing his men.

"Yes." Immediately, six burly men stepped forward, each one a martial disciple at the Primary Level Peak.

The fatty naturally stepped forward to shield Shi Hao, "Stone, when the fight starts, jump out the window and run!"

Although it was the third floor, with their ability, jumping down would certainly not be fatal.

"You still want to run?" The six burly men were already charging over.

Liu Mang closed his eyes, spread his arms wide, and braced himself to take the hits, as he had enough flesh to absorb the beating.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The sounds of collision came, followed by a crash; a window broke, someone screamed and quickly faded away.

Had Stone escaped?

Liu Mang opened his eyes, huh, Shi Hao had appeared in front of him at some point, while the burly men from before were nowhere to be seen.

What had happened?

Shi Hao dusted off his hands, he had naturally thrown the six burly men neatly out of the window.

Miao Hua couldn't help but frown. Was this really a student from Starwind Academy?

"Are you Gao Feng?" he asked. There should only be one person in Starwind Academy with such formidable strength, the genius Gao Feng.

"No," Shi Hao shook his head.

"Not?" Miao Hua was astonished. Could it be that besides Gao Feng, Starwind Academy had produced another genius?

"Stop wasting words with him, just take him down!" Yang Shi'an shouted, his forehead veins throbbing.

Miao Hua swept him a disdainful glance—such a waste! If they were to compare, their Hailing Martial Hall was much stronger than the Yang Family, and naturally, he wouldn't take a spoiled young master seriously.

Intimidated by his fierce gaze, Yang Shi'an immediately fell silent.

"I'll meet you," Miao Hua stepped forward, limbering up his body as he walked. His bones kept emitting crackling sounds like that of frying beans.

"Stone!" Liu Mang showed a worried expression. He already knew that great changes had taken place in his young friend, but his opponent was Hailing Martial Hall's Miao Hua.

"Don't worry," Shi Hao smiled and said.

"How audacious!" Miao Hua charged forward in an arrow step, throwing a punch at Shi Hao.

Shi Hao reached out his hand and with a light pluck, he had already grasped Miao Hua's wrist.

What!

Miao Hua struggled hard, but the grip on his wrist felt not like a human hand but an iron shackle, immovable.

How was that possible?

His face filled with shock. It was already unbelievable that someone had grabbed his wrist, but the sheer strength in Shi Hao's grip was beyond his belief.

"Get lost!" With a flick of his hand, Shi Hao sent Miao Hua flying, who slammed heavily against the wall, rebounded, and fell to the floor.

He couldn't help spitting out blood, feeling as if all his internal organs were about to be ejected.

Without a second glance, Shi Hao strode toward Yang Shi'an.

A chill rose in Yang Shi'an's heart. The opponent was clearly just a sixteen or seventeen-year-old youth, yet he seemed like a demon god who had killed countless people, exerting an indescribable oppressive force on him.

Boom! Boom!

Just then, heavy footsteps approached, and the floor trembled with each step.

"Big Brother!" Miao Hua's face lit up with joy, "Quick, help me!"

The newcomer was the second-in-command of the Hailing Martial Hall, Iron King!

Thud thud thud, the Iron King took large strides toward Miao Hua.

"Big Brother, I'm fine, just help me—"

Slap!

Miao Hua was stunned because Iron King had come over and slapped him across the face so hard that his teeth nearly came loose.

Why?

"Big Brother, why did you hit me?" he said dumbfounded. When had his brother become blind?

"Idiot!" Iron King kicked him again, "Have you eaten the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard to disrespect Young Master Shi?"

Shi, Young Master Shi?

At first, Miao Hua was taken aback, then it dawned on him—their newly emerged boss's boss, wasn't his last name Shi?

He had only heard the name, never expecting to meet under such circumstances.

He had not heard little of Shi Hao's story from Iron King. That was not only a powerful person but also decisive in killing.

"Paying respects to Young Master Shi!" he quickly knelt and bowed to Shi Hao.

Damn it, what the hell?

Yang Shi'an was annoyed.
