Chapter 227: Chapter 227: The Remnant Chrysanthemum
This!
Many people could not bear to watch anymore; a tragedy was about to unfold.
Lu Xing, of course, noticed too, but he had already kicked out, and being in mid-air, how could he dodge?
He was not afraid either. He took a deep breath and clenched his buttocks, ensuring his anus was tightly closed. With his four-step Soul Nurturing cultivation, he could naturally make it as firm as a fortified pass.
Pfft!
Spot on, as he collided, the tip of the umbrella immediately ended up against his anus, and then, he immediately turned a ghastly pale.
The tip of the umbrella was like a sword, as if it were a divine weapon, invincible.
“Ah!” He immediately let out a scream as at least half of the bamboo umbrella vanished from sight.
Boom, Lu Xing fell to the ground, and unfortunately, he landed on his buttocks. Under the force of the impact, the bamboo umbrella slipped in even further.
“Mommy!” Lu Xing bounced up again, then fell face down on the ground with a heavy thud.
His tears instantly streamed out; his hands frantically reached behind, as if trying to pull the umbrella out, yet seemingly lacking the courage. Even when he touched it, he didn’t dare to pull, leaving him in utter turmoil.
This sight made everyone else gasp in shock.
Although they couldn’t empathize, just thinking about it was painfully awkward.
How long was the bamboo umbrella? Now, it had penetrated halfway, halfway!
This, even a master like Lu Xing could be considered ruined in such a manner.
Tip-tap tip-tap, for a moment, there were only the sounds of raindrops falling and Lu Xing’s mournful screams.
Shi Hao glanced at the handle of the umbrella still swaying on Lu Xing’s buttocks and decisively gave up on the idea of taking it back.
“Who are you?” Amidst the drizzle, Luo Qicai asked Shi Hao in a deep voice.
He was no pampered rich kid otherwise he would not have been trusted with such a responsibility, to be sent here to manage such a large city.
But being a martial arts genius did not mean one was omnipotent, at least not in management where he was terrible, and a high martial arts talent did not mean he was without flaws, such as his strong vanity and greed for beauty.
Shi Hao replied with a slight smile, “Don’t you want to be the king among the younger generation? I am just a challenger.”
“Hmph, you think you’re worthy of challenging Young Master Luo?” Someone else jumped out.
This time it was a member of the Ceng Family, named Ceng Cheng.
“I can defeat you!” Ceng Cheng charged at Shi Hao.
His strength was slightly greater than Lu Xing’s, so by logic, Lu Xing was not a match, and he should have been approached with caution.
However, he believed that Lu Xing’s defeat was due to carelessness, and additionally, with the depth of the opponent unknown, using such techniques and being caught out by Shi Hao was normal.
He was different, though; he would absolutely not make such a mistake.
“Let’s see what you really look like,” he said coldly.
Shi Hao smiled, “If you can remove my bamboo hat, consider it your win.”
“Hmph, easy as pie!” Ceng Cheng threw a punch.
Shi Hao dodged, avoiding the blow.
Ceng Cheng pursued him, delivering punch after punch towards Shi Hao.
As Shi Hao retreated, Ceng Cheng pressed forward step by step. Observing the scene, Ceng Cheng seemed to have the upper hand.
“Haha, just surrender already!” Ceng Cheng laughed loudly, feeling everything was under his control.
Shi Hao, dodging all the way, had reached the side of Lu Xing.
At this point, Lu Xing had fainted from the pain, and no one had bothered to carry him off. He lay there in the rain, with a bamboo umbrella still stuck in his buttocks.
——Although the Lu Family had fallen, this sight was indeed quite pitiable.
Shi Hao shook his head, grabbed the handle of the umbrella, and with a “pfft,” pulled it out, causing a stream of blood to shoot into the air.
“Ah!” Lu Xing woke up instantly from the intense pain, and like a fish out of water, he wiggled intensely and managed to leap a good three feet up into the air.
Ceng Cheng was startled all of a sudden, and before he could regain his senses, he saw Shi Hao gliding swiftly, and he had already circled to his back, as quick as a ghost.
Not good!
He instantly had a bad feeling and hurriedly gathered strength in his lower stance, clamping shut his sphincter.
Pfft!
Shi Hao casually thrust, and half of his bamboo umbrella suddenly disappeared, piercing into Ceng Cheng’s body.
— He had wrapped his forceful energy around the bamboo umbrella, making it comparable to fine iron for a brief time.
Only someone capable of using Dark Force like him could extend forceful energy so far out of his body.
“Ah!” Ceng Cheng also screamed, joining the ranks of Lu Xing.
Suddenly, the sound of sharp intakes of breath rose from the crowd.
This kind of contestant is unbearable!
Luo Qicai’s face looked even worse; this was his coronation day. The heavens were unkind, and a drizzle began, something he couldn’t control, but the appearance of Shi Hao, that was different.
“Tian Hua, take him down!” he huffed.
“Yes, Young Master Luo!” Tian Hua nodded and stood out.
Although his left shoulder still throbbed from the hit and would definitely affect his combat power, there was no helping it. Luo Qicai had spoken. Could he refuse?
Shi Hao smiled. “What, do you want to end up like them as well?”
Tian Hua couldn’t help but twitch at the corner of his mouth, his sphincter tightening.
“Hmph, you will reap what you sow,” he immediately regained his composure.
He was nine steps, and from the momentum Shi Hao was emitting, it seemed the latter was also at the Soul Nurturing stage and had not set foot on the Other Shore.
To take a step back, the experts on the Other Shore were few, and all concentrated within the Lu, Ceng, and Tian families. How could someone possibly come out and stand against Luo Qicai?
Thus, he was naturally full of confidence.
“I have no grievance or grudge against you, so, I’ll give you a chance,” Shi Hao said with a smile. “Step down on your own.”
Tian Hua couldn’t help but laugh. He was at nine steps, and he also possessed the ability to fight above two levels, so if someone wasn’t just at nine steps in the Soul Nurturing realm, then he could be considered an eleven-step expert.
Of course, if one could break the nine-step limit and step into the ten-step domain, that kind of advancement could by no means be compared to skipping just two levels.
“You really are arrogant!” He dashed forward with an explosive stride, palms flying. Instantly, the sky filled with palm prints.
Shi Hao too felt a hint of interest.
Tian Hua had the reputation of a genius, and his combat power was definitely much higher than that of an average nine-step practitioner. Such an opponent was worth the fight.
He let out a long howl, and with a thrust of his fists, took the hits head on.
Bang bang bang, in an instant, the two exchanged more than a dozen blows, terrifying bursts of forceful energy rippling, even shredding the fine rain further.
Tian Hua stopped in surprise, his eyes filled with unstoppable shock.
Logically, he should have no equals in the Soul Nurturing realm because he wasn’t just any common Nine Islands practitioner.
But now, Shi Hao proved to be his equal.
— Since when did Sanyuan City produce such a genius?
If Shi Hao hadn’t already been crippled, and if his cultivation didn’t mismatch, he would definitely suspect that the person in front of him was that unfathomably talented genius.
But he could not, and would not, lose!
Tian Hua attacked again, his palm technique unfolding, attacking like mercury pouring out, finding every gap.

Clang!
A bolt of lightning streaked across, followed by the rumble of thunder, turning the misty drizzle into a pouring rain, large raindrops pelting the ground, splashing high.
Those with umbrellas quickly opened them to continue watching the battle.
To think someone could match Tian Hua blow for blow!
