Chapter 500: Chapter 500
The silvery-white Thunder Snake flashed, illuminating half of the sky.
Outside the window, a black shadow eerily stood there.
"Ah! A ghost!" the four girls, Zhao Ling’er included, screamed in terror.
Frightened, they once again hid behind Zhang Xiaohao.
"Do you take my intelligence for a negative number? Those two fierce ghosts were just slain, how could there be any evil spirits?" Zhang Xiaohao said irritably.
His brow suddenly furrowed.
Turning his body, he gazed coldly towards the window.
The black figure flashed and disappeared into the night.
"Hmm? Who could it be? To approach me so silently?" Zhang Xiaohao pondered with concern.
"Husband, what should we do now?" Zhao Ling’er asked.
"I’ll escort you all back first," Zhang Xiaohao replied.
"Okay," the four girls, including Zhao Ling’er, nodded in agreement.
"How did you get here?" Zhang Xiaohao inquired.
"We came by car. After we arrived here, the taxi left," Zhao Ling’er explained.
"Each of you find something to cover up with, we’re leaving right now," Zhang Xiaohao said.
"Husband, no need to look for anything, a little wind and rain is nothing," one of them said.
"Yeah, Brother Zhang, a bit of wind and rain won’t stop us," the four girls rushed to say.
They couldn’t stand to stay there a moment longer.
"Alright," Zhang Xiaohao agreed.
Having said that, he led the four of them as they opened the door and walked outside.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
Bean-sized raindrops fell crazily from the sky, pelting down on Zhang Xiaohao and his group.
If it had been a normal day, given the four girls’ pampered dispositions, they would have been unable to resist complaining loudly.
Having been frightened by the recent events, the girls were somewhat excited to face the raindrops falling from the sky. Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs novel•fire.net
Zhang Xiaohao’s brows knitted together, feeling as if something was following them from behind.
Soul Power flowed from within his body, sweeping outwards from around him as the center.
"Just as I thought!" Zhang Xiaohao’s eyes narrowed as he thought.
"Whoever you are, since you want to play, then I’ll be sure to keep you company," Zhang Xiaohao thought, his desire to fight boiling within him.
Having left the desolate area, Zhang Xiaohao hailed a taxi by the roadside and had the four girls get in.
"Husband, aren’t you coming in?" Zhao Ling’er asked.
"You four listen closely, if you don’t study hard from now on, next time I’ll make sure you learn your lesson," Zhang Xiaohao warned.
"You can rest assured, husband. Once we’re back at school, we’ll definitely study hard," they said.
"Brother Zhang, you can rest assured, we won’t dare to do it again," the four girls chimed in.
Zhang Xiaohao nodded, he then addressed the taxi driver.
"Master, please take these four to Nanhua First Middle School."
As he spoke, he took out five hundred yuan and handed it over.
"Big brother, rest assured, I’ll make sure to deliver these four girls to Nanhua First Middle School safe and sound," the taxi driver said with a smile.
Inwardly scoffing, he shook his head. The youth these days really knew how to enjoy themselves! In the midst of a storm, they’d even bring four young girls for a bit of wild fun! Ah, to be young!
"Thank you," Zhang Xiaohao nodded.
Looking at the departing taxi, Zhang Xiaohao withdrew his gaze.
He turned around, his eyes cold and indifferent as he looked in the direction behind him.
"You’ve been following for quite some time, come out!" Zhang Xiaohao said indifferently.
Steady footsteps resounded as a fierce-looking man in a black suit appeared, his body exuding murderous intent, especially his eyes, which were cold and ruthless, as detached as an iceberg.
The raindrops in the sky hadn’t even hit him before they were distorted by a powerful field.
"Who are you? Why are you following me?" Zhang Xiaohao asked.
Without saying a word, the man in black used his foot to push off the ground, transforming into a meteor and dashing into the night.
With just a few flashes, he had disappeared from sight.
"Thinking of leaving? Did you ask for my permission?" Zhang Xiaohao sneered.
Though he knew something was amiss, he had to follow and investigate.
If this person, with such formidable skills, decided to do something from the shadows, it might not be a problem for him, but Cheng Tianxue and the others would likely have a hard time guarding against it.
With a light tap of his foot on the ground, he moved as lightly as a swallow, following the Twelve Heavenly Steps, and turned into a flash of lightning, quickly catching up after several leaps.
The man in black stopped in a small grove outside a city.
"Not running anymore?" Zhang Xiaohao mocked.
With a flash, he landed three steps away from the man in black.
"Two months ago, Holy Angel Bar, the third young master of the John family, John Sharo, was he killed by you?" the man in black asked forthrightly.
"Are you from M country?" Zhang Xiaohao asked with a frown.
"It seems like it was indeed you!" the man in black said coldly.
"I’m curious, since you were already here, why didn’t you take action just now?" Zhang Xiaohao asked again.
"A brat from the Hundred Veins Realm, dead or alive, the result is the same! You must die tonight," the man in black said arrogantly.
"Is that right? I’m quite curious as to who gave you such confidence to be so arrogant," said Zhang Xiaohao with a cold laugh.
"Don’t try to probe me! I, Wolf God, don’t condescend to join forces with a brat to take you down! Just these two words, Wolf God, are more than enough," the man in black said confidently.
"You’re the Wolf God, ranked twelfth in the mercenary world of Jianghu?" Zhang Xiaohao’s gaze sharpened.
"Eh! Didn’t expect that you’ve actually heard of my name, seems like your own identity is not so simple either," Wolf God sneered.
"War God," Zhang Xiaohao said each word with gravity.
In the night sky, a bolt of silver-white lightning, as thick as an arm, struck down.
It split a giant tree, thick enough to be embraced by an adult, into ashes.
"You’re War God? That’s impossible!" Wolf God exclaimed.
"Why is it impossible?" Zhang Xiaohao countered.
"Humph! I may have never seen War God’s face, but the killing intent you exude is too weak, and your age is not right, it simply cannot be him!" Wolf God said with grave certainty.
"Is that so?" Zhang Xiaohao sneered.
With a flip of his hand, he took out the "War God" mask and put it on his face.
"How about now? Do you still doubt me?" Zhang Xiaohao said playfully.
Looking at the familiar War God mask on Zhang Xiaohao’s face, the most wanted figure on the assassin leaderboard, with a bounty that was classified as SSSSS-grade - a sky-high contract for assassination.
For the first time, Wolf God felt that this matter was not as simple and easy as he thought.
"I’ve long heard the great name of War God but never had the chance to meet him. I didn’t expect that tonight, in such a small place, I would encounter a big fish," Wolf God said.
"I also didn’t expect that tonight I would run into Wolf God, infamous in the underground world of M country," Zhang Xiaohao said.
"Haha!" Wolf God suddenly burst into a roar of laughter.
The laughter subsided, and his eyes radiated an overwhelming battle intent.
"War God, come on! I’ve wanted to fight you for a long time, not for anything else! Just for the title ’War God,’ I want to see for myself what tactics you have to dare claim such a title!"
