Chapter 124: Chapter 124 Curtain Falls
2001, August 18th.
The Xu Family was exterminated.
A colossal entity, thunderously collapsing. Despite the efforts to keep it very, very low-profile, it was a matter difficult to keep hidden.
Ordinary people knew little of this, but many important figures were aware that all the direct relatives of the Xu Family were wiped out.
Not a single survivor!
Zou Tianyu, returning from a business trip, was horrified upon hearing this news.
He hadn’t expected Lin Hao to really do it.
He was somewhat familiar with the Xu Family; their strength was evident to all, and honestly, very few in Binhai could touch their family.
Even as the top leader in Binhai, Zou Tianyu would find it extremely difficult to move against such a family.
He had thought that Lin Hao would kill one or two people and leave.
He never anticipated that Lin Hao would do what he said and exterminate their entire family.
"Who exactly is this guy?"
Zou Tianyu’s heart was overwhelmed by surging waves. He felt fortunate that his keen intuition had told him from the start that he shouldn’t get involved.
It seems he was right once again.
Otherwise, who knows what his fate would have been.
In exterminating the Xu Family, Zou Tianyu did not help much, but to curry favor with Lin Hao upon his return to Binhai, he immediately took charge personally to suppress the matter.
Aside from the Yu Family and himself, no one else knew the true cause of the Xu Family’s extinction.
What people could understand was only one thing.
The entire Xu Family was wiped out by two individuals, and several of the Xu Family’s leaders died by the hand of one person!
Even someone from a major sect died among them.
Even this news alone shocked countless people, and unknowingly, many major families and corporations began conducting themselves more discreetly, afraid to provoke the person who exterminated the Xu Family.
Many closely associated with the Xu Family were trembling with fear, scared to even step outside their doors.
Hai Long Banquet Villa.
Two days had passed since the extermination of the Xu Family.
That night, Lin Hao’s villa suddenly emitted waves of fluctuations.
If one observed carefully, one could even see faint ripples forming in the air.
The source of this energy came from Lan Xiyue’s room.
After three days of seclusion, her long-stalled realm finally began to shift on this day.
Her strength was steadily increasing.
As dawn began to break, the ripples in the empty space invisibly dissipated.
Inside the room, Lan Xiyue opened her eyes.
Her eyes brimmed with joy and excitement.
The realm she had been stuck in for over a year had finally been broken through.
Now she had truly become a Martial Artist!
A real Martial Artist!
"Is this the power of a Martial Artist?" Feeling the vigorous power within her, Lan Xiyue’s face flushed with emotion.
At this moment, she understood the gap between a Martial Artist and Transcend Mortality.
The two, one in the heavens, the other on earth.
"In Transcend Mortality Ninth Layer, the strength is only about three thousand kilograms, but now, the strength of one hand alone is already five thousand kilograms."
Lans Xiyue felt emotional, Lin Hao’s icy face involuntarily surfaced in her mind.
"Go away, why think of him." Lan Xiyue waved her hand as if to dismiss that face, yet it lingered stubbornly.
"I wonder how he is doing, whether he has become a Martial Artist."
Lan Xiyue’s lips curved into a slight smile: "You made me a Martial Artist, if you’re still stuck in the Transcend Mortality Realm, don’t blame me for being unkind."
After changing into a long dress and carefully getting ready, Lan Xiyue picked up the Ru Yuan Sword and stepped out of her room.
She went downstairs and immediately saw Lin Hao performing horse stance training in the courtyard.
"Clang!"
Without any hesitation or warning, Lan Xiyue drew the Ru Yuan, and the Three-foot Green Blade, swift as lightning, stabbed towards Lin Hao from behind.
"This time, you should be hit by my sword," Lan Xiyue confidently stated. She didn’t intend to hurt Lin Hao but to scare him and let him know her capability.
However.
The next second.
Her rising confidence was immediately doused by the bloody reality.
She saw Lin Hao casually turn around, stretch out two fingers, and effortlessly pinch the tip of the sword.
Then, with a light flick of his fingers.
"Buzz!"
Instantly, the blade trembled violently, a tremendous force surged from the tip into Lan Xiyue’s arm.
Lan Xiyue’s arm felt numb, and her hand involuntarily released the sword.
The Ru Yuan Sword clattered to the ground.
"With your level, you still want to fight me?" Lin Hao raised his eyebrow, "I advise you not to recklessly test the limits of seeking abuse."
Lan Xiyue’s beautiful face was full of emotions, staring intensely at Lin Hao.
Terrifyingly, she discovered his aura was even more formidable than it was three days ago.
"Have you... become a Martial Artist?" Lan Xiyue tentatively asked.
"Mm, I put in a whole two hours of effort and barely managed to reach the Martial Artist Ninth Layer," Lin Hao sincerely responded, "Is there a problem?"
Lan Xiyue slightly moved, her lips parted as if she wanted to say something but said nothing.
Inside her, a wild beast was roaring.
Two hours!
Effort?!
Effort your grandma, it took me over a year, and I still haven’t become a Martial Artist.
You claim to have put in effort after two hours?!
Lan Xiyue’s expression was complex.
Is this what a genius is?
No, this isn’t just a genius, it’s a monster!
"No... no problems..." After a while, Lan Xiyue finally digested this fact, deeply struck.
She originally thought she could fight Lin Hao as a Martial Artist.
Now, it seems their distance is only growing further apart.
"No problems then what are you waiting for, go and cook?" Lin Hao casually glanced at her.
"I... Okay!"
Lan Xiyue, absent-mindedly, picked up the Ru Yuan Sword and entered the kitchen.
After breakfast, they headed straight to Binhai University.
Today was the day they had agreed with Tang Guodong to participate in the assessment of the Inner Courtyard.
Just arriving at the school, they were informed by the security guard that the principal was waiting for them, and the two directly went to Tang Guodong’s office.
In the office, the first person Tang Guodong saw was Lan Xiyue.
The moment he saw the girl, his expression became slightly stunned.
"She really made a breakthrough?"
Seemingly doubting his own judgment, Tang Guodong took another careful look and couldn’t help but exclaim:
"Genius really is genius, I didn’t expect a real breakthrough in just three days..."
"Not really." Lan Xiyue’s pretty face looked somewhat gloomy.
What kind of genius is she compared to the guy behind her? Probably just a speck of dust.
She wondered what Tang Guodong’s expression would be when he saw Lin Hao.
While she was lost in thought, Lin Hao leisurely walked into the office from outside, smiling, "Good morning, Mr. Tang..."
"You too..." Tang Guodong was just about to symbolically greet him when he suddenly sprang up from his office chair, his old eyes wide open.
"Holy cow!"
He quickly stepped up to Lin Hao, looking him up and down, left and right as if beholding a treasure.
This left Lin Hao completely baffled, "Mr. Tang, what are you doing?"
"Martial Artist, Martial Artist Ninth... Ninth Layer Heaven?" Tang Guodong’s face turned red, disbelieving, "You, you, you’re already a Martial Artist at the Ninth Layer Heaven?!!"
Lin Hao helplessly frowned, "Yes, is there a problem?"
