Chapter 716: Chapter 716

The children were all stunned.

When had they ever witnessed such a scene?

A nearly transparent Qi Energy sword zigzagged past every muscular man.

Every time it passed a muscular man, it would sever an arm.

Those who were exceedingly arrogant just moments earlier now resembled lambs waiting for the slaughter, utterly devoid of any resistance; they didn't even have the courage to flee.

Wu Wei's courage shattered instantly, and he ran away without looking back.

He hadn't gone far when he tumbled to the ground, but instead of stopping, he desperately crawled further away.

The scene was extremely cruel, yet many of the boys found it immensely satisfying.

This is what a real man looks like!

A nearly transparent Qi Energy sword had scared everyone present, and those dozen fierce and evil-looking muscular men forgot even to run.

In less than half a minute, all of the muscular men's left arms were severed.

Xu Hao looked coldly toward the not-so-distant place where Wu Wei was crawling away for his life.

Xu Hao said coldly, "Wu Wei, feeling scared now? Too bad it's too late!"

Wu Wei hurriedly looked back, his hands covering his head, begging, "Don't kill me! Don't kill me! Please don't kill me! I'll give you everything I have!"

In a panic, he pulled out everything from his pockets, including a cell phone, bank cards, a wallet, and even a box of condoms.

Xu Hao said coldly, "I don't want your stuff. All I know is that you almost killed Xiao Lan, and I'm going to avenge her. That's it! In your next life, don't bully others just because you think you can!"

Before Wu Wei could say another word, Xu Hao propelled the Qi Energy sword directly across his throat.

Wu Wei clutched at his throat in extreme pain, eyes full of resentment as he looked at Xu Hao, and after struggling for a moment, he became completely immobile and collapsed powerlessly on the ground.

The children were all shocked at witnessing Xu Hao killing Wu Wei, but not a single one of them was scared; instead, they were incredibly happy.

The villain finally got the punishment he deserved!

Xu Hao looked around and asked, "Where are the two older sisters who helped with the cooking and laundry?"

Xiao Bao and the other children all shook their heads repeatedly, "We haven't seen them at all just now, we don't know where they've gone."

Xu Hao nodded and said, "They should be safe for now; no need to worry about them. I'll put Xiao Lan in a room, and the older children should clean up the courtyard."

The children began cleaning the courtyard very obediently, even the few who usually liked to play pranks were exceptionally well-behaved.

Xu Hao's actions had terrified them; who would dare misbehave now?

They didn't dare to gamble whether Xu Hao would lay a hand on them.

Xu Hao entered Xiao Lan's room, closed the door, and gently placed her on the bed.

He had already searched through the Inherited Memories but found no same or similar Energy presence. So, this was an unknown type of energy.

However, what it was exactly, Xu Hao was also unclear; he only knew it was related to Xiao Lan's own physical condition. Now they could only wait for her to gradually wake up.

Xiao Lan's physical condition seemed normal, and Xu Hao wasn't too worried about her. He also reported safety to Qin Yao, telling her everything was fine here, but that he couldn't return for the time being.

Upon hearing Xu Hao's words, Qin Yao replied sourly: out of sight, out of mind...

Xu Hao quickly said a lot of nice things and also promised to take Qin Yao to tour the countryside attractions for a few days to relax, finally managing to appease her.

Xu Hao thought of Qin Yao acting spoiled and couldn't help but find it amusing. Still, he realized that he had indeed neglected her and Ruyan's feelings during this time. Although Jing'an City and Huadu were not far from each other, they were both busy and hardly had time to go out and have fun. Your support on * keeps this series going.

Perhaps, once he'd properly settled the matters here, he really should take some time to accompany them.

Xu Hao had someone from the company find people to repair the orphanage and replace the gate with a new one.

By six or seven o'clock in the evening, the orphanage was fully repaired, and Xiao Lan woke up in a daze.

As she opened her eyes, she saw Xu Hao meditating on the bed.

Seeing Xu Hao there, she immediately felt relieved, knowing the children must all be alright.

Yet, she remembered being hit by the gate, but when she checked her body, she saw no wounds. Had Xu Hao already healed her injuries?

But surely, many of her wounds must have been all over her body, right? Did that mean he undressed her to treat her wounds?

Suddenly, she felt extremely shy and quickly checked her clothes, finding no sign they had been tampered with.

She was momentarily dumbfounded.

How could she be uninjured?

This was too unbelievable, right?

Unable to figure it out, she stopped thinking about it and turned her gaze to Xu Hao.

Seeing Xu Hao in meditation, she rolled her eyes, slowly leaned in close to Xu Hao's face, pursed her lips, and with apprehension began to move closer.
