Chapter 640: Chapter 640
Xu Hao spread his hands and put on a helpless look, saying, "See, I am indeed a rogue, quirky and disrespectful to women, you should give up the idea of marrying me. When you go back, ask those old guys who wanted you to marry me, did they forget to bring their brains with them when they left the house?"
"Hmph! What do I care! Those old geezers who are close to kicking the bucket and stubbornly refuse to die have already annoyed the hell out of me!"
The woman was obviously extremely impatient with the old geezers she mentioned, clearly because they were too controlling of her, which annoyed her immensely.
But this also indirectly confirmed that she was indeed the daughter of a major power, otherwise, she wouldn't speak so impolitely.
The woman suddenly said with a cold voice, "I think you're quite good, able to catch the hairpin I tossed out randomly. Your strength is indeed strong; you must be one of the better ones among the younger generation, right? If you can beat me within three years, I will agree to marry you. Otherwise, I'll personally cripple you... Forget it, I won't kill you. Maiming will suffice."
Everyone was extremely speechless, what kind of talk was that?
Beat you, and she will marry, but if not, she'll cripple Xu Hao?
Could she possibly be the Black Widow?
Xu Hao smiled faintly, "Do you really think you have me cornered? Unfortunately, I will neither challenge you nor let you cripple me, because you are simply not my match."
"Pfft! Stubborn until the end, don't worry, I will come to find you for some fun soon, and by then, don't cry when I beat you!"
The woman smiled playfully and then slowly walked towards the outside.
Just as she reached the doorway, everyone suddenly realized in shock that she had disappeared into thin air!
It was as though she had merged directly into the night.
This scene left everyone stunned. How did she manage that?
Elder Xie sighed softly at this moment and said, "Here goes another monster! This era, indeed as prophesied, is full of them, such chaotic times!"
Everyone was confused and impressed, sensing that Elder Xie was lamenting something, but they did not quite understand what he was referring to, even Tu Yilong and Xu Hao were bewildered. Thistextwasacquiredfrom*.
But when someone was about to ask, Elder Xie stood up and left the hall without giving them a chance to inquire.
Just as he was walking out the door, he paused briefly, suddenly turned his head, and said, "Xu Hao, among those present, there are many outstanding individuals, but I think that only you and that woman will make it to the final contest..."
Tu Yilong snorted and said, "Are your words definitive? You are not a Fortune Teller! I, Tu Yilong, am extraordinarily talented and immensely strong; do I not qualify to participate in that final contest?"
Elder Xie looked at him, then suddenly smiled and said, "You... are still lacking a bit... Of course, I am merely speculating. Everything needs time to verify. Enough said for today, it seems you know something, but that's about it. Xu Hao, I'm leaving. Take care of yourself. This world is not as simple as we imagine!"
Elder Xie slowly walked out of the hall, gradually disappearing into the night.
Watching Elder Xie's retreating figure, Xu Hao's expression grew solemn.
Such a respected and esteemed person as Elder Xie would not speak without basis. Since he spoke out, the so-called final contest might very well exist.
But what exactly is this final contest?
Tu Yilong glanced at Xu Hao, noticed he was somewhat distracted, and snorted coldly, "A mongrel with no proper schooling really can't compare with us, the descendants of great families. You don't even know what the final contest is, but don't dream about it. I won't tell you. Tomorrow morning, on the fighting stage, that will be your death date!"
Tu Yilong left the hall with his sleeves flapping arrogantly, and the Wu Family members followed him out.
Xu Hao smiled and seeing Anna looking anxious, he said with a smile, "Don't worry, whatever this final contest is, it might just be a rumor spread by some people."
Anna still looked worried and said, "But... but Elder Xie is so powerful, he surely wouldn't lie, would he?"
Xu Hao held her small hand, saying, "Really, it's okay, don't worry. I've faced danger since I started learning martial arts, but haven't I always turned danger into safety? Don't worry, I can handle all sorts of difficulties. In life, why should we fear this so-called final contest?"
Ruyue suddenly said, "There are some things I know, but now is not the time to discuss them. When you are able to know, you will naturally understand. For now, just focus on improving your strength. The kind of battle that is for the true geniuses, don't think Tu Yilong is so arrogant now; his talent... really seems a bit lacking."
Xu Hao laughed, "My talent is also average, right? Why would Elder Xie pay special attention to me? Could it be because I am too handsome?"
Chen Suyi rolled her eyes, thinking that even at this moment, the big jerk couldn't stop being narcissistic.
