Chapter 329: Chapter 329

"What’s all this to me?" Zhang Xiaohao said, lounging with one leg propped over the other.

"You bastard!" Ouyang Yu exclaimed angrily.

"Hey! You need to get this straight, it wasn’t me who asked you to talk, you did it on your own. Am I to blame?" Zhang Xiaohao shrugged his shoulders.

"You, how can I persuade you to help rescue our Miss Guan?" Ouyang Yu pleaded urgently.

Zhang Xiaohao didn’t make a sound and continued to sip his red wine.

"You bastard!" Ouyang Yu said, seething with rage.

"Say whatever you like, but I just don’t feel like saving her!" Zhang Xiaohao declared.

"Don’t you have any interest in the ancient ruins?" Ouyang Yu asked.

"Are you out of your mind? Didn’t you just say that? It takes seven pieces of the map for it to appear. Now, I have one piece, and whoever has the remaining six can’t bypass me! To open the ancient ruins, they must come to me!" Zhang Xiaohao said with a commanding presence.

"You’re shameless!" Ouyang Yu exclaimed, frustrated.

"Look at my teeth, do I look like a toothless person to you?" Zhang Xiaohao said with a laugh.

"Go to hell!" Ouyang Yu snapped, her anger unabated.

She grabbed two wine glasses from the table and hurled them at Zhang Xiaohao.

Zhang Xiaohao sidestepped, easily dodging them.

"I’m tired, you can play here by yourself!" Zhang Xiaohao said.

After speaking, he stood up and walked towards the bedroom.

"You asshole, stop right there!" Ouyang Yu burst out, incensed.

On the verge of exploding with rage, she sprang up from the couch and chased after Zhang Xiaohao.

With a flick of his body, Zhang Xiaohao was already at the bedroom door.

The door shut, blocking Ouyang Yu outside.

"Bastard! Open the door and let me in!" Ouyang Yu roared.

"Tch! We’re not doing the deed. Why should I open the door and let you in?" Zhang Xiaohao muttered, touching his nose.

The vast world is no match for my cultivation.

As long as the Guan Family’s second house hasn’t acquired the iron piece from Guan Qingxue, they wouldn’t dare lay a hand on her.

At most, they would put her and her brother under house arrest.

They might go hungry a few times, but nobody would die.

He opened the window.

With a light tap of his foot, Zhang Xiaohao leaped down from the upper floor.

From the height of a dozen stories.

As the ground drew nearer, Zhang Xiaohao tapped his foot again and, after a few quick moves, landed lightly on the ground.

Turning into a shadow, he vanished into the night.

At the power distribution room of the Mountain and Water Hotel.

As Bai Xiaosheng’s stronghold in Beijing, there would be guards, hidden and overt, in other places.

But here, there was no one on watch.

Zhang Xiaohao slipped in without anyone noticing.

He closed the door and looked at the huge power distribution room before him.

"Hmm, not bad! Though it’s smaller than the power room in the Heavenly Life Villa District, it will have to do." Zhang Xiaohao muttered to himself.

He took out two Body Refinement Elixirs and swallowed them, then opened the door of the electric box.

With the experience of the previous two times, he feared being reckless again, causing a huge disturbance.

Zhang Xiaohao only took a red wire and jabbed it into his own body.

Sparks flew as countless silver snakes furiously poured into Zhang Xiaohao’s body, seemingly bent on completely destroying him.

But with the experience of the last two cultivation sessions, the current high voltage electricity was only passable, way too weak!

He executed the first level technique of Netherworld Demon Body to absorb the high voltage electricity inside his body, forging his flesh and bones.

Under Zhang Xiaohao’s deliberate control, streams of electricity crazily flowed into his body.

The kind of incident from last time did not happen again.

In the Heavenly Life Villa District.

Security Guard A, "Do you think that electricity thief will come again tonight?"

Security Guard B, "He hasn’t shown up for several nights in a row; I think he must be scared off!"

Security Guard A, "Yeah! Such incidents have happened twice in a row, and it has totally riled up the manager. With the manager in a fury, over a hundred security guards plus the experts from Chen Martial Arts Hall standing by, I bet that electricity thief is probably frightened away!"

Zhang Xiaohao had no idea what happened in the Heavenly Life Villa District after he left.

If he did know, he would definitely say with composure,

"I came lightly and left lightly, not taking away a single cloud."

Zhang Xiaohao opened his eyes.

Two sharp glints shot out from his eyes.

He glanced at the red wire in his hand and put it away properly.

He took a moment to feel his condition after cultivating all night.

Although it wasn’t as explosive as the first two times, this session was longer, and the Netherworld Demon Body’s first layer of Body Refinement technique advanced two more steps.

Just a few more times, and he would be able to completely master the first layer of the technique.

With a thought, he activated the Netherworld Demon Body, and a black luster appeared on the surface of his skin.

"Still too slow!" Zhang Xiaohao sighed.

Smelling the body odor coming off him, the impurities in his body were cleansed out some more under the forging of high-voltage electricity.

With a light tap of his foot, he dashed toward his room.

Zhang Xiaohao took a warm shower and changed into a black Versace suit.

He opened the door and walked out.

"Ah! You jerk, when did you come out?" Ouyang Yu exclaimed.

She suddenly stood up from the sofa, her eyes still groggy.

"Stop making a fuss, okay? This is my room; do I need to report to you when I come out?" Zhang Xiaohao rolled his eyes and said.

"Hmph! I’ve decided, if you don’t agree to help rescue Miss Guan, I’ll follow you wherever you go!" Ouyang Yu said.

"Hehe." Zhang Xiaohao chuckled.

He picked up the phone and dialed the front desk, asking them to send up some breakfast.

Soon, the front desk delivered the breakfast.

Zhang Xiaohao sat on the sofa and started eating directly.

Ouyang Yu’s stomach also grumbled.

"Hmph!" Seeing Zhang Xiaohao looking over, Ouyang Yu snorted and started eating the breakfast without any courtesy.

After finishing breakfast, Zhang Xiaohao lay back on the sofa.

"I might consider helping you, but it’s not impossible!" Zhang Xiaohao said playfully.

"Ah! You’re willing to agree to help?" Ouyang Yu cried out in surprise.

"Don’t make such a fuss; I haven’t even finished talking." Zhang Xiaohao said.

"You have to agree to a demand of mine!" Zhang Xiaohao said.

"Okay! I agree!" Ouyang Yu agreed without hesitation.

"Aren’t you going to ask me what for?" Zhang Xiaohao teased.

"With my head under somebody else’s roof, do I have any other choice right now?" Ouyang Yu said.

"Straightforward! Give me the metal piece, and I’ll go rescue her right away." Zhang Xiaohao said.

"Take it!" Ouyang Yu threw the metal piece over.

Catching the metal piece, Zhang Xiaohao tucked it into his pocket, actually storing it inside the Shennong Ring.

"Let’s go! To rescue your miss." Zhang Xiaohao said.

"Okay." Ouyang Yu responded.

Leading Zhang Xiaohao, they walked outside.
