Chapter 346: Trade & Info.
Hao Ren stood tall as he watched the black cloaked man stand up from the ground. The young man looked at Han Lingshi and said, "Help the rest, I will handle him."
Stay updated through empire
Han Lingshi sensed a chill in his voice and she nodded before retreating. The black cloaked man was not stable in his steps, he was wobbling all over the place. This could have been a good time to attack the enemy, but Hao Ren did not hurry.
He said, "Can you stop acting like a weakling, cuntface? I didn't even use my full strength at that time."
His calm words echoed in the ears of the enemy, and he regained his balance, and said, "Who are you?"
Hao Ren did not answer, he stood silently. The reason Kage asked this question was because earlier when he was punched, he could not detect an ounce of spiritual energy in the move. Hao Ren had been forced to use his physical strength only because the punch was made when the young man was still crossing the spatial portal.
Hao Ren waved at the man in a taunting gesture. Kage was an assassin and he had his own pride, being taunted and underestimated by the young man before him set off flames in his heart and he moved.
Kage used his refraction theory, but Hao Ren only stood on his spot, he watched as the crystal sword flickered and it slashed against his body. However, the gash and the pressurized discharge of blood that Kage was expecting, did not happen. On the contrary, Hao Ren grabbed the blade with his right hand and slapped out with his left.
The impact of the slap was so strong that it forced Kage to materialize and the palm landed directly across his face.
Splat!
Kage was sent flying and even the mask on his face was destroyed. It was torn to shreds, and Hao Ren said, "Is that all that you can do? Ant."
Kage was shocked, he could not understand how this young man was so strong. He stood up with a bleeding mouth and questioned, "Who the fuck are you?"
Hao Ren could sense the indignation in his voice, but he did not say anything. The Wandering Dragon vanished from his spot and then he appeared before Kage. He did not say much and directly punched him in the gut.
Kage keeled over and coughed up blood. He could see a few pieces of his internal organs mixed with the blood. Hao Ren directly destroyed his cultivation and also his organs. The young man stepped back and watched Kage looking at him in desperation and disbelief. He couldn't believe how cruel this guy was.
Hao Ren then slapped the man again, and dislocated his jaw directly. He then stabbed his body with his fingers and then said, "Uncle, can you take him to the side, I have to deal with a few things now."
Han Xinlong reacted quickly. To be honest he was shocked that Hao Ren could deal with this guy at such ease, he could tell that something about his nephew was not normal.
Hao Ren turned around and then appeared next to the injured people. His mood was very calm, he used his medical skills and then used his spiritual energy to push the enemy's dark energy outside their bodies.
Then he looked at Hao Mei and asked, "Do you know that you almost caused a tragedy?"
At this moment, he was not holding back, and Hao Mei also did not make any excuse. She nodded and said, "I know, I apologize and will never make such a mistake."
Hao Ren glanced her for a prolonged second before he said, "Go back to the tent, I have to bring back Agnee from the Naga camp. There will be a few people coming over. Keep the strong ones here, and send back the weaker ones and the children to the south. Then we will plan to move."
Han Lingshi nodded and Hao Ren vanished inside a spatial portal. The four people were silent for a bit. Ye Si sighed and said, "Is it me or is he really holding back a lot of anger?"
Ye Jian gulped and said, "It's not you. Young Master is pissed off."
The other two also nodded and Han Lingshi said, "Let us return to the camp first. Let us see what sort of people are coming over."
...
On the other side, Hao Ren travelled back to the Naga city, and he found Ulupi gazing blankly at Agnee. He sat down beside Agnee and asked, "What are you looking at?"
Ulupi said, "This kid has been meditating for so long and yet she has not even flinched, so I am thinking if she is a genius."
Hao Ren shook his head and did not comment anything. He said, "You have provided me with enough people to put up a force, but now, can you tell me more about Blood Tower? I think one of their silver assassin attacked my family camp."
Ulupi opened her eyes wide, and Hao Ren said, "It has been handled, can you tell me more about them?"
The Naga Queen nodded and said, "Well, you can join the Order Knight Association. They are a force that overtly or covertly oppose the blood tower. However, they have a lot of boundations and strict rules. You can also work as a bounty hunter. They let you stay free, you can kill and submit the heads of the people listed there to earn money and fame."
Hao Ren nodded and they began to talk more. Agnee opened her eyes when the sky turned dark, Hao Ren took out a spirit fruit and gave it to her. He asked, "The recipe of the Snake Wine, out with it."
Ulupi hesitated, and Hao Ren sighed as he said, "I knew you were trying to buy time earlier. Well, let us do this, how about establishing a trade connection with me? How often can you spare some wine and trade with me? What are the things that you need?"
Ulupi thought for a moment and said, "If you can get us...."
After she finished listing the things, began a round of cruel negotiation and Hao Ren came out victorious after the price was settled upon in his favor.
