Asura Emperor Venerable-Chapter 50 - : The Ten Great Families Strike
Chapter 50: Chapter 50: The Ten Great Families Strike
Shi Hao was just here to grab a free meal.
Now that the fight had broken out, and he hadn’t even had his meal yet, what was he supposed to do?
So they moved to another private room, where fine wine and dishes were served.
This had been personally approved by Chang Xun; he wanted to see just how Shi Hao would kick the bucket.
“It’s sad to watch while standing, why don’t you sit down and join me?” Shi Hao said to Chang Xun.
Chang Xun shook his head stiffly; he wasn’t a foodie.
You are!
Watching Shi Hao wolf down the food like he hadn’t eaten for days, ferocious and ruthless, Chang Xun felt utmost contempt. Besides, even if he wanted to eat, he wouldn’t dare sit; Shi Hao’s ravenous eating was too dangerous to compete with.
I better just watch.
Although Lin Yuyue was sitting with him, she had little appetite and only occasionally moved her chopsticks.
“Senior Sister, are you worried about me?” Shi Hao asked.
Looking at his face, so handsome it made one go weak, Lin Yuyue couldn’t help but blush, and petulantly said, “Like I would worry about you!”
“Oh.” Shi Hao buried his head and continued to eat his fill.
Lin Yuyue trembled with irritation, how could someone be like this?
Chang Xun secretly sighed as well, are you even good at flirting? If not, then don’t bother; what’s with starting to flirt and then bailing out?

He couldn’t help but grumble to himself; this pair was like a match made in heaven, delightful to the eyes. Why was Shi Hao so clueless about romance?
After eating his fill, Shi Hao finally dealt with his hunger. Looking at the leftover food on the table, he waved his hand: “Pack it up for me!”
This made Chang Xun grit his teeth once more.
Your heart is truly too big, with the ten great clans possibly arriving at any moment, and you’re still thinking of taking food to go?
Do you even have a next meal?
Yet, he didn’t dare go against Shi Hao’s wishes and solemnly said, “Pack it up for Young Master Shi.”
—Was this not the most domineering use of the phrase “to-go” in history?
Soon, two huge to-go bags were ready.
Shi Hao was very satisfied; now Fatso and Bai Hua wouldn’t go hungry.
See, isn’t he truly not the type to forget his friends over a beauty?
At that moment, finally, the anticipated noise emerged from outside.
“They’ve finally arrived.” Chang Xun breathed a sigh of relief. If Shi Hao took this opportunity to escape, although he could shoulder the responsibility, he would inevitably face complaints from the ten great clans. Now, with the murderer here, they could deal with it themselves.
Shi Hao opened the window and glanced outside; the street was empty, with over a hundred figures appearing, dressed in various colors. It was clearly visible that there were ten different styles represented.
Indeed, the ten great clans had arrived.
“If they hadn’t come soon, I wouldn’t have waited.” Shi Hao smiled; he had waited before simply because he hadn’t yet eaten. Now that he was full, he was not in the mood to just sit and wait.
Alright, time to resolve the issue, then go home to sleep.
“Bold Madman, how dare you kill a member of the Jing Family!”
“Hmph, do you think you can just mess with the Wan Family?”
“…”
Chattering and babbling, the crowd below had much to say, but the message was the same: Shi Hao was audacious, and his end was nigh, blah blah blah.
Shi Hao let out a faint smile, and suddenly leaped from the third-floor window.
Bang!
He landed on the ground, hands clasped behind his back, and looked at the crowd.
Upstairs, both Chang Xun and Lin Yuyue stood by the window watching.
If they captured this girl, could they threaten Shi Hao?
This thought briefly crossed Chang Xun’s mind, and he couldn’t help but turn to look at Lin Yuyue. Unexpectedly, Lin Yuyue was also looking back at him, her eyes clear, untainted by any impurity.
But a chill suddenly rose in Chang Xun, and he quickly shook his head, dismissing the thought from his mind.
Downstairs, upon seeing Shi Hao descend by himself, the crowd’s emotions surged even higher.
“A life for a life, today I shall let your blood splatter on the street!” the Man Family patriarch said, stepping forward as the first to approach.
Shi Hao smiled broadly, “Those subordinates of yours, pretending to be upright, are nothing but a bunch of thieves and prostitutes. Doing business and still taking kickbacks, I’ve dealt with these parasites for you. Shouldn’t you be grateful to me?”
Fuck gratitude!
“Madman, accept your death!” The Man Family patriarch leaped at him to attack. He was a mid-level martial master, and the explosive force generated by his jump propelled him fifteen zhang into the air. Descending from above, he swung his long saber towards Shi Hao.
—How strong Shi Hao was had already been explained by Chang Xun when he sent someone to report, so the Man Family patriarch understood that despite the appearance of this exceedingly handsome youth of only sixteen years, his strength was that of a mid-level martial master.
Under the watchful eyes of the public, he could not tolerate the slightest mistake. He needed to take down this youth cleanly and quickly, or else the Man Family’s reputation would suffer.
Therefore, he used his most adept “Seven Illusions Saber Technique” right from the start.
“You brat—” Urgh!
Bang!
Shi Hao threw a punch, easily knocking down the Man Family patriarch and casually stepping on his face as he spoke, “What were you trying to say again?”
“Mmm mmm mmm—” The Man Family patriarch could only make indistinct noises.
“Oh, you’re saying you want to give me ten thousand taels of silver as thanks?” Shi Hao “understood” him.
Fuck that!
The members of the other families cursed internally, with you pinning down his mouth, what can the Man Family patriarch possibly say?
Nevertheless, they were also filled with awe.
Heavens, the Man Family patriarch couldn’t withstand a single move from Shi Hao?
A venerable mid-level martial master was just knocked down like that?
—Who said this kid was a mid-level martial master?
His mother’s mid-level martial master!
“A high-level martial master!” They looked at each other and disbelievingly voiced the same realization.
Aside from a high-level martial master, how could he be so strong?
A Martial Sect?
Are you joking? There’s only one Martial Sect in the entire Sea King Territory!
But being a high-level martial master was badass enough; in the County Town, one could vie for a formidable position and establish a vast family enterprise. As long as one did not oppose the Hua Yuan Nation or the Commandery Prince, even the biggest trouble could be resolved.
The strong are respected, and this isn’t just talk.
They looked at each other, all rising to the same question: to fight or to make peace?
Meanwhile, upstairs, Chang Xun was completely dumbstruck.
He had only thought Shi Hao was a mid-level martial master, so he had been smirking all along, thinking once the people from the ten great families arrived, this guy would be doomed.
But he never imagined that Shi Hao was actually a high-level martial master!
This changed everything. Even if he was outnumbered, wouldn’t it be easy for him to flee?
—The man wasn’t reckless nor losing his head in youthful pride; he had absolute strength!
Good heavens, how could there be such a young high-level martial master.
Just as the various family heads were hesitating, Shi Hao made his move.
He charged forward with the speed of an arrow, even faster than a black panther.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
He struck without mercy, and instantly, figures scattered in the air.
This left the family patriarchs dumbfounded, we’re still considering whether to fight or make peace, why have you started attacking?
Don’t you have any concerns at all?
Keep in mind, there were ten mid-level martial masters among them, and counting those stationed in the families, fielding twenty mid-level martial masters would not be a problem.
So many mid-level martial masters working together could definitely grind a high-level martial master into the ground, how dare you—ouch, that hurts!
