Chapter 560: Be Kind to Others
Ah Xing and Ah Wang thought Su Hao was joking, so they just smiled and talked about the recruitment by Luo Wang.
Ah Xing and Ah Wang wanted to go out on a mission, but Su Hao wasn’t interested in this Luo Wang.
The key point is that this Luo Wang is actually just a small and insignificant royal, only having some say in his Mingchuan City. Outside of Mingchuan City, he’s nothing.
But he did monopolize some assets and is really rich.
So, in the end, the team unanimously decided: thank Luo Wang for his appreciation, but they don’t want to leave Huai Shui Town, so they can only reluctantly refuse and hope Luo Wang can understand.
Then they all walked towards the Mage Association Hall.
President Gu Yin mediated in the middle, and the appointed meeting time for them was ready, so it was just right to go over.
Originally, Su Hao didn’t want to go. Couldn’t they just send a representative?
But Ah Xing believed that Luo Wang personally coming to invite them to Huai Shui Town was a sign of respect, so the “Fengshan Yangwangxing Team” should also show corresponding etiquette and all participate in the meeting, giving the other party the respect they deserve.
Since it wouldn’t waste much time, Su Hao nodded in agreement.
Thinking that if they had a good conversation later, they could directly ask that Luo Wang if he had any secret information, and they could borrow it later.
But Yashan’s eyebrows raised, his expression becoming very strange. He thought to himself, “Let Veidahu, this true god, go to meet the prince? Ah Xing really comes up with strange ideas. I hope that prince doesn’t act too high-profile, otherwise, I can bury people again.”
He hadn’t done something like this in a long time, and he was itching to do it.
…
In the highest meeting hall of the Association Hall, a heavy and dignified stone table was filled with exquisite snacks.
Luo Wang and Su Hao and others gathered here.
“Beside me, this person is the newly appointed 49th generation royal, Luo Wang Jianxuan of Mingchuan City, also the director of the Mingchuan City Supervision Bureau…”
There were eight people in Luo Wang’s entourage, each dressed meticulously, both flashy and dignified, like eight noble roosters, looking down with a scrutinizing gaze at Su Hao and his team.
They wanted to see what the team worth Luo Wang personally coming over looked like and what they were capable of!
Among these eight people, two were powerful senior source mages, with strength comparable to that of President Gu Yin, responsible for security work.
Two were professional carriage drivers and caretakers from the royal mansion, responsible for taking care of casual horses.
And there were two beautiful maids dedicated to taking care of Luo Wang’s daily life.
Adding Luo Wang and the driver Xiao Hezi, there were a total of eight people. Each of them exuded an extraordinary aura, both inside and out, revealing a noble air.
After President Gu Yin introduced Luo Wang and the others one by one, he briefly introduced Su Hao and the others.
At this moment, Luo Wang, wearing a top hat, slightly furrowed his noble brows, adjusted the position of his nostrils slightly downward, and then looked at Su Hao and the others with sharp eyes.
Driver Xiao Hezi’s ability to observe and understand people’s expressions was top-notch. He immediately noticed the displeasure of his own king and quickly signaled to Ah Xing and the others, solemnly saying, “Since you’ve seen Luo Wang in person, why haven’t you mages come forward to pay your respects?”
Ah Xing and Ah Wang suddenly realized and immediately stepped forward, placing their hands over their chests in salute.
Su Hao and the other two stood indifferently in the back.
What a joke, who are these arrogant guys? Each one acting so proud, and they still expect Su Hao to show respect?
Yashan had already asked in the group chat, “Wei Lao, should we take the opportunity to get rid of them? How dare they look at you with such eyes! I don’t like it.”
Feng Cheng immediately replied, adding fuel to the fire, “I don’t like it either. That kind of look is like how we look at the rats in the laboratory.”
Su Hao smiled faintly and replied, “Don’t be so angry all the time, always thinking about fighting and killing. After so many years, haven’t you learned to be kind to others?”
At this moment, Luo Wang turned his gaze towards Su Hao and the others, his brows furrowing even deeper.
Driver Xiao Hezi said, “You three, why haven’t you paid your respects to Luo Wang?”
Su Hao said, “Luo Wang? Heh, we’ve seen him, so why don’t you just tell us why you’re looking for us? I’m usually busy, so let’s quickly get to the point, solve the problem, and then everyone can go about their own business.”
Gu Yin and Ah Xing and Ah Wang looked at Su Hao in surprise. This kid, has he lost all sense of propriety? He dares to speak to a king like this.
Xiao Hezi was taken aback and immediately jumped up, his expression angry. “How dare you speak to Luo Wang like that? Don’t you kneel down and apologize immediately?”
Su Hao furrowed his brows. “Can’t we have a civilized conversation?”
Except for Yashan and Feng Cheng, everyone present was inwardly screaming, “It’s clearly you who didn’t speak properly first!”
Xiao Hezi pointed at Su Hao and shouted, “You bold troublemaker! Now I’ll pardon your ignorance. Apologize to Luo Wang immediately, or I’ll charge you with contempt of the royal family and you’ll be imprisoned forever in the black cell, never to see the light of day.”
Luo Wang looked at Su Hao with a cold gaze, a hint of a smile playing at the corner of his mouth. It seemed he was already contemplating how to deal with Su Hao and the others.
But he showed great demeanor, raised his hand to stop Xiao Hezi from continuing, smiled, seeming not to mind at all, and said, “Hehe, it’s okay, it’s quite normal for young mages not to have heard of my name. I came here this time after hearing about the heroic deeds of you mages, and I sincerely invite you to join the Luo Wang Mansion of Mingchuan, to jointly resist all kinds of disasters and protect the people of one side. I can meet all the needs of you mages, and from now on, become heroes to the people, living an unimaginable life…
I wonder what you mages think?”
After Su Hao listened attentively to his words, he simply refused, “What you said is not what I want, so I reject your invitation.”
Gu Yin’s face changed, calling out, “Ziyang…”
She wanted to say something, but nothing came out. If she had known that Su Hao was so straightforward and inflexible, she should have informed him in advance. Now, it was too late to say anything. Her brain quickly worked, thinking of a solution to break this stiff atmosphere.
Luo Wang felt a strong sense of humiliation from Su Hao’s words, as if he looked down on everything he could offer, looked down on the Luo Wang Mansion, looked down on him…
As a Luo Wang who couldn’t be smaller, what he hated most was others looking down on him. After all the grievances he had suffered along the way, he couldn’t help but erupt at this moment.
His voice became cold. “You reject so decisively, do you know the consequences?”
Su Hao said, “Oh? What consequences?”
Luo Wang revealed his sharp teeth. “You don’t want to know, believe me, it’s something a small source mage like you can’t bear. So, your only choice is to join us.”
Ah Xing and Ah Wang’s faces turned ugly upon hearing this.
It seemed that they had been too optimistic before. Their team had no room to refuse at all. Once they were targeted, they could only go and serve as dogs for the nobles.
Su Hao smiled and said to Luo Wang, “Since you’re not saying anything, then forget it. There’s nothing urgent right now, so I’ll leave first!”
He turned to President Gu Yin and said, “President Gu Yin, it seems your banquet has been ruined, but I don’t like eating with these people, so I’ll leave it at that! I’ll invite you next time.”
With that, he turned and left.
Yashan and Feng Cheng smiled at Luo Wang and the others, their eyes as cold as if they were looking at dead people.
These people who dared to threaten Wei Lao were doomed!
Su Hao then sent a message in the group: “These people are beyond redemption. Let’s bury them!”
Yashan: “Okay, Wei Lao! Burying people is something I’m good at.”
Feng Cheng: “Hehe, Yashan Lao, I’ll go with you. I want to learn more too.”
The direction and speed of the situation’s development exceeded the imagination of others. They never expected that a well-intentioned invitation would end up in such a disastrous and almost irreparable situation.
Gu Yin had a question in her mind: “What should we do?”
Ah Xing and Ah Wang looked at each other, gritted their teeth, apologized to President Gu Yin, and also left.
Gu Yin glanced at Luo Wang and the others, reluctantly forced a smile, and explained, “It’s all a misunderstanding! Ziyang grew up in these mountains and is used to the wild. He lacks a sense of propriety. Who would have thought that he would offend Your Excellency Luo today? I hope Your Excellency Luo won’t be angry with this child.”
Luo Wang took a deep breath and then smiled, “Of course not.”
…
Ah Xing and Ah Wang chased after them, mourning and saying, “Ah Yang! We’ve offended the royal family, it’s a disaster!”
Su Hao said, “I didn’t expect Ah Xing, who’s not even afraid of mysterious disasters, to be afraid of this.”
Ah Xing shook his head and said, “I only have one life, not worth lamenting over, but I’m worried about implicating the entire Huai Shui Town!”
Yashan grinned, “What are you afraid of? Can they slaughter the entire town?”
Ah Wang muttered, “Provoking the nobles, they can really do anything.”
Yashan shrugged, “Ah Wang, are you being naive? If you provoke them, you must strike first! How can you wait for others to make the first move?”
Ah Xing and Ah Wang were both stunned. “You…”
Yashan said, “I didn’t say anything. You two shouldn’t speculate recklessly.”
