Chapter 839 - 840: Are You Guys Really That Poor?
"I've told you countless times not to be so impulsive! You realize your mistake now, don't you?" Seductive Snake saw Yun Hao almost causing another big misunderstanding again. Her shrewish nature immediately came out as she put one hand on her hip and used the other to grab Yun Hao's ear and started lecturing him!"Ouch, little Mei Mei, it wasn't impulsive, I was just joking around!"
"Are you saying I wronged you?"
"How could that be? Little Mei Mei, let's talk this through, could you let go first, please?"
"You think I should let go just because you say so?"
"Then I'll have to use family rules!" Yun Hao saw Seductive Snake refusing to release his ear, so he immediately grabbed her long legs with both hands and carried her on his shoulder, then slapped her on the butt!
As the slap echoed, Seductive Snake yelped in pain, couldn't care less about grabbing Yun Hao's ear, her little hands waving frantically, her face turning a deep blush!
"Will you dare be so uncivilized with me again?" This time, it was Yun Hao's turn to question Seductive Snake!
"I won't, I won't, Yun Hao, please let me go, there are so many people watching!" Seductive Snake spoke while her face was almost red enough to squeeze out blood!
Getting her butt smacked by Yun Hao was one thing, but the key point was that there were so many people around, even her elders were here. This... this was simply too embarrassing!
After hearing Seductive Snake's words, Yun Hao suddenly remembered that there were quite a few outsiders here. He then put Seductive Snake down.
"Ahem, why exactly did you come looking for me? Surely not just to watch me flirt with my woman, right?" Yun Hao coughed awkwardly, then calmly looked at the crowd!
Xiao Dahai and his people were dumbfounded, what the heck is going on?
The audacious Yun Hao was being yanked by Xiao Mei by his ear?
This news was truly shocking!
But aside from being shocked, the three brothers of Xiao Dahai felt secretly happy. What did this mean?
This meant Yun Hao really loved Xiao Mei, otherwise, how could someone so formidable allow Xiao Mei to tug at his ear?
And behind the three brothers, Xiao Tian had a distressed expression; Xiao Mei was his goddess, yet Yun Hao smacked her butt, and she even pleaded for mercy. It was truly heartbreaking!
But in front of Yun Hao's absolute power, he couldn't do anything, which was truly a sad thing!
"It's like this, our father instructed the three of us brothers to follow you, Mr. Yun, to leave the Xiao Family and explore the outside world. Rest assured, Mr. Yun, we also have our own business in Nanjiang City, it's not large, but enough to support over forty people, so you needn't worry.
We're just waiting for one day when, if you have time, you could lend a hand when we rebuild our home!"
Xiao Dahai relayed Xiao Zhenye's instructions verbatim, without any concealment!
Because Xiao Zhenye had advised them to be honest in front of Yun Hao, even if Yun Hao might become dissatisfied; it was far better than lying and playing tricks, which would make Yun Hao even more upset!
"You guys are really... straightforward!" Yun Hao didn't expect them to be so direct when speaking, and for a moment, he didn't know what to say!
"However, I don't want to take you along; I want to go see Old Man Xiao!" Yun Hao thought for a moment, then spoke to Xiao Dahai and his people, before grabbing Seductive Snake's hand and heading to Xiao Zhenye's courtyard!
Seeing this, Xiao Dahai and the others hurriedly followed!
Arriving outside Xiao Zhenye's courtyard, Yun Hao pulled Seductive Snake inside, followed by the three brothers, while the rest stayed outside. It wasn't that they didn't want to enter, but they weren't qualified!
"Yun Hao..." Xiao Zhenye saw Yun Hao arrive, just about to say something but Yun Hao stopped him, speaking instead.
"Old Master Xiao, I understand your thoughts, but there's no need to worry; even if people from the Hua Family and Huang Family come, I have ways to deal with them!"
"Yun Hao, I know you have some mysterious abilities, but this time I've received word that Old Freak Huang and Old Freak Hua are bringing people here, and they should arrive by noon. Neither of them is weaker than me, and I can only manage to hold one of them off. Besides, their Fifth Grade experts combined are twice the size of what we have in the Xiao Family!
You have talent, but you have even more potential; after cultivating for a few more years, it's not too late for you to help me and other Xiao Family members exact revenge. You're the son of a benefactor; I can't let you risk danger!"
Xiao Zhenye spoke earnestly to Yun Hao with a grave expression.
"Old Master Xiao, rest assured, I won't do anything I'm unsure of. Let me ask you, are your three families very poor? Are you severely lacking in cultivation resources?"
Yun Hao chuckled indifferently and then asked Xiao Zhenye.
"That's indeed the case; not just our three families, but the Li Family is quite poor too, otherwise why would the four families crowd together in the nearby hills?" Xiao Zhenye felt a bit awkward at Yun Hao's direct question but answered honestly!
There's no choice since Yun Hao spoke the truth, after all; the poverty was real!
Moreover, not just their four families, many hidden families of their kind are like this. The bigger ones are better off; the medium-sized, like theirs, are terribly impoverished, and many smaller ones have already joined the world!
Large families with deep roots never really fall because they have powerful city foundations supporting them!
"What if I give them money?" Yun Hao's confidence surged upon hearing Xiao Zhenye's affirmative response; as long as the opposite party lacks money, it's not an issue because besides talent and handsome looks, Yun Hao has money he can't finish spending!
"Giving them money? Yun Hao, you might not understand; our families may be small, but we need a lot of money. I know you might be very wealthy, but... it would likely take a vast sum to stop their two families from taking action!"
Xiao Zhenye glanced at Yun Hao, hesitated for a moment, then spoke!
"A vast sum? How much? There has to be some figure, right?" Yun Hao asked nonchalantly.
"I estimate it would take a hundred million!" Xiao Zhenye considered for a moment and slowly extended a finger!
A hundred million?
Oh my, these guys are really asking for the stars!
With a hundred million, I could wipe out their two families several times over!
"Well, I could also provide you with cultivation resources; I have medicinal herbs!" Yun Hao continued.
"That could work!" Xiao Zhenye nodded thoughtfully!
Just then, a commotion erupted outside, and Xiao Zhenye's expression turned sour as he headed towards the gate!
Yun Hao and the others hurriedly followed!
