===052 It’s All a Misunderstanding===
After Su Hao stabbed the large assassin with a single blow, he turned around and chased after the remaining four assassins.
No matter how they hid in the grass, Su Hao could quickly find them and kill them with a single slash using the “Sliding Shadow Step.”
In less than thirty seconds, the brilliant lives of the four assassins all ended under Su Hao’s blade.
“There are still two left!” Su Hao flicked the blood off his knife.
At this point, Dan Liqin and his son had already run far away, beyond a distance of 200 meters, and disappeared from sight.
Su Hao immediately mobilized his blood energy and strengthened his radar according to the rune route, expanding the radar’s search range to a kilometer.
Found them, Dan Liqin and his son had already run several hundred meters away.
“Running fast with such a burden!” Su Hao immediately chased after them with all his strength. He got closer and closer, and in just a moment, he could see the figures of Dan Liqin and his son.
Dan Liqin was pulling on Dan Sui’s collar, running with all his might, raising a trail of dust along the way, occasionally looking back to see if Su Hao was catching up.
When Su Hao saw him, he also saw Su Hao and was immediately scared out of his wits.
Seeing that Su Hao was about to catch up, he immediately shouted, “Wait, young friend, let’s talk! It was all a misunderstanding before. My foolish son did something wrong. Whatever amount of money you need for an apology, just say it, and I will definitely make it happen.”
As he spoke, he ran for his life without daring to slow down.
Dan Sui, who was being lifted off the ground, was already crying in fear, his hedgehog-like head drooping down. He exclaimed, “Dad, run faster, Dad! He’s about to catch up! Once he catches up, we’re done for!”
“Shut up!” Dan Liqin was quickly infuriated by his foolish son. If it weren’t inconvenient now, he would immediately beat the idiot son’s mouth to a pulp. What kind of thing did he raise!
Seeing that Su Hao didn’t respond, he got anxious and said again, “We came here this time with no other intentions than to personally bring my foolish son to apologize to you. It was all a misunderstanding!”
Apologize with a group of killers? Who do they think is a fool! Su Hao didn’t say anything and ran faster under his feet. It would only take a few seconds for him to catch up and solve it with a single blow.
Dan Liqin anxiously said, “I have Beast Patterns! Spare me a way out, and I’ll give you the Beast Patterns!”
At this point, Su Hao spoke, “I do want the Beast Patterns, but I don’t want to spare you a way out. Just go in peace, and if we have a chance, we’ll meet again in next life!”
Su Hao approached, the knife in his hand raised, and he swung it fiercely.
Dan Liqin threw Dan Sui back in a crisis.
“Splash!”
“Ah!”
A cry of misery, it was Dan Sui’s painful cry. From Dan Sui’s chest to his stomach, Su Hao cut open with a knife, falling to the ground. For a while, he didn’t die, rolling on the ground in terrified agony, desperately trying to close the huge wound with his hands.
Su Hao didn’t say a word and continued to chase.
Seeing that he couldn’t escape, Dan Liqin’s face suddenly turned fierce, and he suddenly turned around and attacked Su Hao.
“Horizontal slash!” Dan Liqin’s momentum surged, his face grim, the long knife in his hand slashed horizontally towards Su Hao like lightning.
“Slippery Shadow Step!” Su Hao’s figure shifted, flashing past Dan Liqin, his long knife flashing and disappearing.
Dan Liqin’s head flew high in the sky, taking two steps forward without a body, and fell weakly in front of his son Dan Su, blood spraying and splashing Dan Sui’s face.
At this moment, Dan Sui stared blankly at the rolling head on the side, seemingly unable to believe that his powerful father had died like this, or that his father had actually thrown him out to block the knife.
He no longer screamed in pain, and after a moment, the light in his eyes went out.
In Su Hao’s radar range, only Wu Yuntian and others were left, and they were also quickly approaching.
At this moment, Su Hao couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He held the blood-stained long knife in his right hand, trembling slightly. The emotions in his heart seemed not as calm as they appeared on the surface.
Su Hao squatted down, wiped the blood off the blade on the corpse, and sheathed the knife.
After Wu Yuntian and the other five arrived, they looked at the scene and for a moment, no one said anything.
Dead bodies, Fatty and He Qingqing had also seen a lot because several soldiers in the Chashan outpost were bitten to death by ferocious beasts in the wilderness every year. They were used to seeing corpses, but they still felt slightly uncomfortable when they saw such a bloody scene and hid behind.
…
After Su Hao voluntarily explained the cause and effect of the incident, including Wu Yuntian, everyone looked at him with strange eyes.
He Jianyong glanced at He Qingqing and asked Su Hao again, “So you’re saying, that Dan Sui bullied Qingqing, and you kicked his eggs and flipped the entire third level trainee?”
Su Hao nodded, “That’s right. At that time, I was already a high-ranking elite warrior, dealing with some kids was easy.”
He Jianyong and Old Li looked at each other speechlessly.
Old Li pointed at the corpse on the ground and said, “These are all high-ranking elite warriors, right? So, you really advanced to Grandmaster?”
Su Hao nodded again, “Just advanced, by luck.”
He Jianyong and Old Li looked at the dumbfounded Fatty, then turned to Wu Yuntian and asked, “Old San, is this your son’s teaching? Let my son, Cunzhi, worship you as his master! Just teach him a few moves, that’s enough.”
Wu Yuntian waved his hand and said, “No need, I’m not good at teaching others. Xiaowu can handle himself, it has nothing to do with me.”
Old Li patted Fatty’s head and said regretfully, “Cunzhi, your destiny hasn’t come yet!”
He Jianyong then said directly, “This is not the place to talk. Let’s discuss it back at the outpost. Also, today’s events are only known to us few, so don’t mention it to anyone else.”
Everyone nodded.
He Jianyong continued, “Let’s work together to clean up the surroundings and handle these bodies.”
Wu Yuntian and the three adults were experienced in this matter, so there was no need for Su Hao and the other three young boys to do anything. In just a short while, they buried all the bodies without leaving any traces.
“We found some money, a total of forty-three silver coin.” Old Li carried a few money bags.
He Jianyong immediately said, “Give it to Xiangwu, it’s his.”
Old Li handed it over to Su Hao without hesitation, saying, “Take it!”
Su Hao accepted it without any politeness.
Su Hao specifically searched Dan Liqin’s body, thinking he might have the beast pattern, but he found nothing.
Indeed, who would carry such valuable items with them?
Su Hao didn’t mind, as there was still plenty of time in the future to have opportunities for runes.
After tidying up, everyone set off again, their footsteps faster. After this incident, they had no more leisure to go sightseeing. They just wanted to go back home and digest the news of “Wu Xiangwu’s breakthrough to Grandmaster”.
During this time, Fatty and He Qingqing secretly approached. Fatty tugged on Su Hao’s clothes and said, “Xiangwu, how did you become a Grandmaster? Aren’t you even more powerful than my father?”
Su Hao casually replied, “It’s not that impressive, we’re all about the same.”
He Qingqing wrinkled her nose and said, “Trying to lie again? Do you still think we’re kids?”
Su Hao forcibly swallowed the words “Yes” that almost slipped out and said instead, “It was just luck. Don’t worry, as long as you study hard, you’ll surpass me soon!”
Fatty then asked, “Xiangwu, how powerful are you now?”
Su Hao smiled and said, “I’m not sure, but I should be able to defeat both of you with just one hand.”
Fatty nodded seriously and said, “That’s really impressive!”
“Hmph!”
He Qingqing gave Su Hao a fierce glare as if to say: don’t treat us like children and try to fool us!
