Urban God-level Youth

Zhao Fenghai was clearly threatening him while also intimidating the Yunv Sect.

The Zhao Family knew Qin Hao was the protector of the Yunv Sect, so they made it clear beforehand: if the Yunv Sect dared to protect Qin Hao, the Zhao Family would definitely clash with the Yunv Sect.

Although Qin Hao was a top young talent, compared to the Zhao Family, Zhao Fenghai thought that if the Yunv Sect was smart, they would abandon Qin Hao.

At this moment, Lan Manshuang spoke up: "Qin Hao is the protector of the Yunv Sect, and I won't allow the Zhao Family to kill him easily. Mr. Qin and Mr. Zhao had a fair duel to the death, and everyone present can attest to this. Your Mr. Zhao was no match for him, and his death is deserved!"

Upon hearing Lan Manshuang's words, Zhao Fenghai's face turned grim. Was the Yunv Sect standing up for Qin Hao?

They were willing to offend our entire Zhao Family for a young man? They have some nerve. Our Zhao Family has remained hidden for tens of thousands of years, and it seems the world has forgotten our power and prestige.

"Your Yunv Sect is quite bold, do you think the Zhao Family is easy to bully?" Zhao Fenghai's tone was grim and icy.

At this moment, an old voice came from deep within Heaven and Earth Academy: "Who dares to make noise at Heaven and Earth Academy?"

Then an elder appeared above Heaven and Earth Academy; it was Hou Changfeng, the director of the academy.

Upon seeing Hou Changfeng, Zhao Fenghai's tone became smoother: "Mr. Hou, I came today to capture Qin Hao. He killed Mr. Zhao, and if we don't kill him, the Zhao Family will have no face to stand on the Southern Continent."

Hou Changfeng replied indifferently: "Qin Hao and Zhao Yichen had a fair duel; the death can't be blamed on anyone else. The way your Zhao Family is acting seems quite petty. Qin Hao is my junior brother; if I let the Zhao Family take him, how could I explain to my eighth uncle?"

These words caused an uproar.

"What? Did I hear wrong? Qin Hao is the junior brother of Mr. Hou? What the hell is going on?"

Whether they were students of Heaven and Earth Academy or outsiders, everyone was dumbstruck and petrified.

Is Qin Hao actually of the same generation as Mr. Hou? Is this a joke?

Nangong Yuya and Lan Manshuang were also stunned, looking up at Qin Hao in the air. He... he is Mr. Hou's junior brother? Then who is his master?

Inside the academy, Zhou Danqing couldn't believe her eyes looking at Mr. Hou in the sky. She wondered if she heard incorrectly: Qin Hao is his junior brother??

Then Qin Hao is also my father's junior brother; if ranked by seniority, shouldn't I call him 'little uncle'???

What the hell is going on??

Zhao Fenghai was also dumbfounded, staring at Hou Changfeng: "Mr. Hou, you said Qin Hao is your junior brother?"

Hou Changfeng nodded with a calm expression: "That's right, these are matters between two young people, us old folks shouldn't interfere."

Zhao Fenghai swallowed hard, his heart was in turmoil - is Qin Hao's background that significant? He's actually Hou Changfeng's junior brother. Why the hell was there no such news before?

Moreover, from what Hou Changfeng just said, Qin Hao seems to be the disciple of Hou Changfeng's eighth uncle. Hou Changfeng ranks among the top Supreme Realm experts, his uncle must be an even more terrifying figure.

Thinking of this, Zhao Fenghai's expression fluctuated wildly; having come with such fanfare, should he leave dejectedly?

Then the Zhao Family would only be mocked more?

But if he doesn't leave dejectedly, what can he do? Just one Hou Changfeng could annihilate him, let alone the monster behind him.

After a long pause, Zhao Fenghai spoke: "I will report this truthfully to the Family Head and let him decide."

With these words, he quickly left with his people.

The crowd watched Zhao Fenghai leave, knowing he was truly afraid. Heaven and Earth Academy's heritage and strength surpass even those top forces, and those top forces are very aware of Heaven and Earth Academy's terror; every old monster there is an extremely fearsome existence, wiping out top forces wouldn't be too much effort.

After the Zhao Family left, the surrounding crowd also dispersed, but today they got another piece of news - Qin Hao is Heaven and Earth Academy's Mr. Hou's junior brother, with an immensely terrifying old monster backing him.

Previously, people thought Qin Hao lacked background, which was his biggest flaw; but now no one says that anymore because Qin Hao's background is not lower than anyone else's, even more terrifying.

...

"Junior brother Qin, come to my palace sometime," Hou Changfeng's voice sounded in Qin Hao's mind.

Qin Hao descended from the air, Nangong Yuya and Lan Manshuang both staring at him with their beautiful eyes: "When did you become of the same generation with Mr. Hou?"

"This is a long story. I'll tell you when I come back; Mr. Hou is asking for me," Qin Hao replied.

Lan Manshuang nodded: "Alright, since Mr. Hou is looking for you, you should go quickly."

Qin Hao left Hidden Dragon Peak and arrived at the last few mountain peaks behind Heaven and Earth Academy, where usually the director, deputy director, various elders, protectors, and tutors reside. No students live here.

Eventually, Qin Hao arrived at the peak of one of the mountains; on this summit were several simple courtyards, each containing wooden houses and pavilions.

This was Hou Changfeng's residence on the mountain, and the central wooden pavilion was where he usually trained and contemplated.

Qin Hao came to the pavilion door and knocked; inside Hou Changfeng's voice sounded: "Junior brother Qin, just come in!"

Qin Hao pushed the door open and walked in. In the main hall were several people: Hou Changfeng, Zhou Wantong, Zhou Danqing, and several academy tutors, who were disciples of Hou Changfeng and Zhou Wantong.

Seeing Qin Hao, Zhou Danqing's eyes were somewhat complicated. This jerk suddenly became my little uncle? This left Zhou Danqing confused.

What the hell is going on?

Hou Changfeng looked at Qin Hao with a big smile and said: "Junior brother Qin, don't be formal, have a seat."

Qin Hao glanced around; besides Hou Changfeng and Zhou Wantong, everyone else was standing, and he sat down on the chair next to Zhou Wantong.

Hou Changfeng spoke: "Junior brother Qin, let me introduce you. Wantong is a disciple of my second uncle, and I am a disciple of the Grand Elder. These are all Wantong and my disciples, by seniority they should call you uncle."

The tutors respectfully said: "Greetings, little uncle!"

Qin Hao gave a wry smile: "No need to be formal, I can't really deserve this..."

Hou Changfeng's expression became solemn: "Junior brother Qin, don't be too modest. In our Heaven and Earth Sect, everything must follow our sect rules. Them calling you uncle is appropriate; other uncles have disciples too, but they aren't in the academy. I'll tell them about your identity in the future."

With curiosity and doubt, Qin Hao asked: "Senior brother Hou, what is the Heaven and Earth Sect?"

...

Inside, everyone's expression froze, staring at him; don't you freaking know the Heaven and Earth Sect??? Then how did you become the disciple of the eighth uncle?

Qin Hao awkwardly explained: "When my master accepted me as his disciple, he didn't say anything and left immediately after. I didn't have time to ask, and I've only seen my master twice."
