When they saw Zhang Tian collapsing weakly to the ground, everyone was stunned.

Xu Hao actually killed him in public!

Not giving Tu Zhengfei any face at all!

Tu Zhengfei lightly flipped his right hand, checked Zhang Tian's breath, and sighed, "He's no longer breathing; even a Daluo Golden Immortal couldn't save him now."

With these words, Zhang Tian's death was pronounced.

The members of the Zhang family cried out in grief. The illustrious Eldest Young Master Zhang was slain right before their eyes, and they were helpless against the killer!

The Zhang Family Old Master angrily exclaimed, "Xu Hao, you... how dare you be so brutal!"

Xu Hao calmly replied, "He's allowed to insult me, but I'm not allowed to kill him? I don't like to talk too much; I prefer to act."

He scanned the crowd and snorted coldly, "Who else wants to try my fist? Those who wish to curse, start cursing now, and for each curse, I will give a punch."

The crowd fell dead silent.

Even the commoners who had sided with the Wu and Zhang families didn't dare to make a sound.

If even the distinguished Eldest Young Master Zhang could be killed by Xu Hao without the Zhang family being able to do anything about it, what could they, mere minions, possibly do?

Tu Zhengfei frowned deeply and snorted coldly, "Xu Xiao You, you are so tyrannical, I fear you might incur divine wrath!"

"Divine wrath? What is that? If you are capable, let the divine wrath come and punish me," Xu Hao retorted disdainfully.

"You allow yourselves to loot and kill commoners, yet we can't resist? When we resist, you say we are slaughtering too much and will incur divine wrath, but when you massacre commoners, why don't you talk of divine punishment? If there really is divine wrath, it should strike you beasts first!"

Xiao Lan chimed in from the side, "Exactly! If divine thunder punishes us but not you, then it lacks fairness; it might as well not exist!"

"RUMBLE!"

A sudden peal of thunder shocked everyone.

Xu Hao looked up at the sky, smacked his lips silently, and whispered, "Xiao Lan, be careful of getting struck by lightning."

"Pfft! I'm not afraid. I am the electro girl!" Xiao Lan clenched her fist, pointing towards the sky and declared with great emotion.

"You've been watching too much 'Electro Boy,' haven't you?"

Xu Hao tapped Xiao Lan's head and laughed.

After the thunder, the sky showed no change.

Someone laughed and said, "It must have been just a groundless thunder, nothing odd about that."

"Exactly, it just made us all paranoid earlier, but how could a few words trigger thunder, right? It's all just a coincidence."

The crowd buzzed with discussions, dispelling their fears, yet many still cast nervous glances at Xiao Lan.

Tu Zhengfei glanced at Xiao Lan, pondered for a moment, seemingly unable to figure it out, then decided not to think further and said to Xu Hao, "See? There are divine beings above us; you have to be cautious with your words and actions!"

Xu Hao disdainfully replied, "Divine beings above us? Yet, how come these divine beings don't punish the scoundrels within these noble families? I merely killed a degenerate disciple of the Zhang family, and you speak of divine punishment? That's utterly ridiculous! If the so-called divine beings above only protect noble families, then what use do I have for such divine beings? Better off without them!"

"How dare you! The spirits of the divine cannot tolerate such insults,"

Tu Zhengfei seemingly didn't want to argue with Xu Hao on this matter anymore and changed the subject, "I don't know what wrongs those descendants have committed, but that's no reason for you to execute them!

"There are national laws and family rules. If a family has unworthy descendants, the families will deal with them themselves, but outsiders should not gossip or interfere!"

Xu Hao sneered, "Family rules? What use are your rules? If they were effective, would there be so many degenerate descendants? Since your rules are ineffective, let me help you educate these scoundrels!"

"Xu Xiao You, you're just in your twenties, yet you stand on a moral high ground and lecture me, isn't that too arrogant? Don't you know to respect the old and love the young?" Tu Zhengfei, unable to argue with Xu Hao, tried to use age to pressure him.

But Xu Hao replied, "Respect the old? Do you know I am a generation above you? Come on, call me 'Uncle' and let's hear it!"

"Ah—! There is a limit to what one can endure! You've insulted me time and again; today, don't blame me for striking you hard!" Tu Zhengfei said angrily.

"Don't worry, I know you did one good thing twenty years ago, so today I will spare your life," Xu Hao said with a smile.

"This old man needs no mercy from your hands!" Enjoying the story? Find more at *.

It was deeply humiliating for Tu Zhengfei to be belittled by a man in his twenties, and he charged toward Xu Hao.

Xu Hao's eyes flickered, and he rushed at Tu Zhengfei like an arrow released from a bow, without fear.

They slightly misaligned, and their right fists collided.

"BANG!"

The powerful impact sent shockwaves in all directions, even knocking the surrounding members of the Zhang family off their feet!
