Chapter 325: Chapter 325
"Do you want to kill me? I'm telling you, even if I die, you won't survive either." That Cao family young master was still so stubborn, not realizing that if he died, whether the other party died or not would be meaningless to himself.
"If you die, I'll still live very well. But don't worry, I won't kill you." Xiaoyao looked at the Cao family young master with a smiling expression.
"Haha, scared now? I'm telling you, offending our Cao family will make you die miserably." That Cao family young master began getting smug. He seemed to have misunderstood—this wasn't fear from Xiaoyao, but that he had other plans.
Xiaoyao shook his head and said, "You're truly hopeless. Let me explain the situation. First, I'm not killing you because you're useful, not because I'm afraid of your Cao family. In my eyes, your Cao family is completely insignificant."
"Bullshit, you're talking bullshit..." That Cao family young master began shouting. He felt Xiaoyao was insulting his family, which he wouldn't allow.
Xiaoyao didn't pay attention to the Cao family young master's shouting and continued, "Second, I also don't want to kill you. For people like you, I'm afraid others will say I'm bullying the mentally disabled."
"What are you saying? I'm going to kill you. Attack, everyone attack. Kill him." The Cao family young master went crazy and began shouting loudly. He seemed to have forgotten that his subordinates had basically been completely defeated by Xiaoyao. Now no one dared go up, at least not until new subordinates arrived.
Unless someone could risk their life to follow his orders, but this was impossible. He simply didn't have the charisma to make people do this. His subordinates only gathered around him for money or power—not many would risk their lives for this. It wasn't worth it.
"I'm going to use hidden weapons, okay? If you don't leave, you might get selected by me." Xiaoyao spread his hands with a slight smile, but this smile made the Cao family people feel afraid because they didn't know if Xiaoyao was just talking.
"Ten..." Xiaoyao spoke.
At this moment, everyone didn't understand, but the next moment everyone understood. Xiaoyao's meaning was—
Damn, wasn't this a countdown? Did this mean that after counting down, he would launch hidden weapons?
Some Cao family people began backing away, though they didn't seem intent on fleeing. Because if they fled, they might face retaliation from the Cao family, so they didn't leave—they just let others be in front of them. If anything happened, others would bear it first while they could assess the situation.
As for some others, they didn't retreat. Their reasoning was similar—they didn't want to show they wanted to retreat, didn't want the Cao family young master to see they had retreating intentions, which might make them targets of resentment.
At this moment, no one thought Xiaoyao really dared to do anything. Killing the Cao family young master was still something they felt couldn't possibly happen. This was also their habitual thinking from so long—they hadn't thought much about other things.
Therefore, they felt the Cao family young master could still settle accounts afterward. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ NoveI(F)ire.net
It was because of this that some people even stepped forward. This was to show their loyalty, believing they would get better positions in the Cao family in the future.
They felt that if they didn't advance, Xiaoyao probably wouldn't attack them—this was just a gesture. But if they were told to charge up now, they wouldn't dare.
This was also a little cleverness they played. However, sometimes those who play clever tricks die faster than others.
When Xiaoyao counted to one, the situation didn't change much, because no one thought he dared make a move. But soon this thought would no longer exist.
"I'll fulfill your wishes."
Xiaoyao said four words, and these four words were like death warrants. Those Cao family people standing in front fell down—silently, without any warning, just like that expert before.
Everyone's hearts were filled only with shock. They had been staring at Xiaoyao the whole time—his hand only moved slightly. How could this kill martial artists with martial power? This method of killing invisibly was inherently difficult to accept.
If it were just one person that would be difficult to accept, then the current situation was impossible to accept. What fell wasn't one martial artist, but a row of martial artists. All those who had stepped forward were now lying on the ground.
Even for ordinary people, making so many people fall simultaneously wasn't easy, let alone Xiaoyao doing it with just a slight movement. This was even more difficult. If it hadn't happened before their eyes, no one would believe this.
Xiaoyao said indifferently, "What 'what'? Since they wanted to die, I fulfilled their wish. I'll give you another chance. Three..."
Three? Three what? Could it be...
Damn, it really was like that. Quick, dodge.
This time, no one dared stay nearby. Everyone ran desperately, so fast it was somewhat jaw-dropping. When Xiaoyao counted to one, those people had already run over a hundred meters away.
"Very good. It's not too late for you to be sensible now." Xiaoyao smiled, then looked at the already stunned Cao family young master. Now no one was around him—a vacuum zone had formed around him, making him very, very prominent at this moment. Of course, he was already one of the focal points, prominent enough.
"What do you want to do? I'm the young master of the Cao family." The Cao family young master still maintained his clamoring attitude, obviously somewhat unaware of the situation.
"You're truly pitiful. I've already killed so many of your people—do you think I really care about your Cao family?" Xiaoyao looked at that Cao family young master with pitying eyes. Such a simple principle needed to be spoken—truly hopeless.
"Who are you." The Cao family young master somewhat wanted to retreat. It wasn't that he was afraid of Xiaoyao—he just didn't want to suffer a loss at this moment. When his people came, he would still get it back.
"I'm a kidnapper." Xiaoyao said with a smile. "Also, I warn you—don't think about leaving. Otherwise, I'll also launch hidden weapons at you. But I won't kill you—at most I'll make you unable to walk."
Unable to walk—that would be crippling your legs...
"You... I don't believe it. I'm leaving—let's see what you can do to me." As someone who had always oppressed others, this Cao family young master had never been threatened by anyone in these ten-odd twenty years. Even if there were any, they had been dealt with by him. Therefore, he wouldn't acknowledge this.
The Cao family young master turned and left...
The Cao family young master fell to the ground, letting out a miserable cry. His legs were convulsing—obviously, what he didn't believe had become fact. Xiaoyao had crippled his legs.
"How dare you do this to me. You're dead. You're dead." The Cao family young master cried out in pain. While in pain, he let out cries of hatred.
The current situation had already numbed everyone. They no longer believed in the Cao family's power and influence, because someone was trampling on it—trampling fiercely, mercilessly.
"Yes, I'm dead in a hundred years." Xiaoyao's voice rang out from beside the Cao family young master. No one knew how he suddenly appeared beside the Cao family young master—they only saw him kick the Cao family young master once, making him face him directly.
"No, you must die today. No one can save you." The Cao family young master's resentful fury continued rushing toward Xiaoyao. Of course, this would be directly ignored by Xiaoyao.
"I'm very curious how you've managed to live until today. But this isn't very important either. I'm more interested in asking where exactly I provoked you. Was it just because I passed you?" Xiaoyao didn't discuss with that Cao family young master about who would die or who needed saving. He was too lazy to discuss this because this matter wasn't important to him.
As for why this Cao family young master was pursuing him relentlessly, this was what he was more interested in. If it really was as he thought—just for passing their convoy on the road—then this Cao family young master was too extreme.
"Yes, but there's also another reason. I want your horse. Such a peerless treasure horse is wasted in your hands—you shouldn't possess it." That Cao family young master said through gritted teeth. Even at this point, he still didn't feel there was anything wrong with his behavior—he just felt this was temporary and could be gotten back sooner or later.
"Peerless treasure horse? Although this horse is a decent thousand-li horse, it's far from being a peerless treasure horse. It can barely even be called a treasure horse." Xiaoyao shook his head. Although the horse in his possession was given by the prince of Greedy Wolf Empire, he hadn't chosen the best one—just selected a relatively ordinary one. Of course, this ordinary was only relative.
After Xiaoyao's feeding and training, this horse's quality had also improved considerably, but it still couldn't reach the level of a peerless treasure horse. At most, it was just a relatively good thousand-li horse.
"Stop pretending here. That horse is faster than my treasure horse—it's definitely a peerless treasure horse." The Cao family young master said. For him, his own things were already the best. If something was better than his, then it would be a peerless masterpiece.
"That's because your horse is relatively ordinary." Xiaoyao replied directly. Just ordinary—couldn't say poor, because these weren't considered poor.
"What? My horse is ordinary? Look around the Eastern European Kingdom—can you find anything better than mine?" That Cao family young master seemed to forget his pain and was very displeased with Xiaoyao's statement.
Xiaoyao thought about it and shook his head, saying, "I haven't seen any." After entering the Eastern European Kingdom, the best horses he had seen were indeed those Cao family horses from before. He hadn't seen others.
