C273 The Road to Success Was Full of Twists and Turns
After a while, the Leng Family's people walked out from the Residence. The one in the lead was a middle-aged man with black hair. He wore black and gold clothes, and his expression was heavy as he looked at the people in front of him.
"Patriarch Wang, Elder Ye, Patriarch He, the City Lord has just fallen, and you're already here to support this brat? Isn't this a bit too shameful?" The middle-aged man with black hair said coldly.
The three people who were called were the leaders of the twelve families in Black Iron City. At this moment, they looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.
In fact, none of them had seen this young man in front of them. They only knew that he was the one who killed the city lord after hearing the report from their family's spies.
Ding Hao's eyes swept across the three people behind him. Being stared at by this young man made them feel uneasy. It was as if they were being stared at by a fierce tiger, and their lives would be in danger at any moment.
When the black-haired middle-aged man saw the three of them remain silent, he knew that they had no choice but to do this. He heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.
After all, the strength of these people in front of him wasn't much different from his. If they swarmed forward, then the Leng Family would only face one outcome - extinction.
However, if it was only this young man, even though the spies reported that this person was the one who killed the City Lord, it was hard to say whether the City Lord was careless and fell for this fellow's trick. Hence, there was still a chance to take a gamble.
Right at this moment, Ding Hao glanced at the two people in the crowd from the corner of his eye. When they noticed him, they quickly disappeared into the crowd.
However, Ding Hao didn't take any measures. Instead, a faint smile appeared on his face. He didn't put these two shrimps in his eyes.
"Fellow Daoists, I know that you have been threatened by this person more or less. However, don't all of you feel ashamed to listen to his orders? He is alone, and we have more than ten experts at the late Houtian realm and above. If we work together, he won't be able to escape from us. " The black-haired middle-aged man said loudly.
When the people in front of the door heard the black-haired middle-aged man's words, some people began to stir. After all, even the city lord couldn't defeat everyone here by himself.
Although this young man in front of them had killed the City Lord, it was impossible for anyone below the Xiantian realm to kill everyone here.
When the black-haired middle-aged man saw that everyone was hesitating, he said again, "Moreover, he killed the City Lord of Black Iron City, who was personally appointed by His Majesty. He will definitely be wanted by the Imperial Family. I believe that an Innate Stage Expert will come and kill him soon. If we capture him... Perhaps, we will be rewarded handsomely."
" Patriarch Leng is right. Let's not be fooled by this man. Even if he has the strength of a peak Houtian warrior, with so many of us here, do we still need to be afraid of him alone? " At this time, a patriarch said.
When the black-haired middle-aged man saw that someone had changed sides, a smile appeared on his face. It seemed like the Leng Family would be able to survive today.
Ding Hao's eyes coldly swept across the person who spoke and said indifferently, "Is there anyone else who has the same thought as him?"
Everyone started discussing in low voices once again. A few more people walked out and stood beside the Leng Family's Patriarch, facing Ding Hao.
After a while, there were only three people standing behind Ding Hao. One of them was the white-haired old man from before.
"Elder Ye, Patriarch Yi, Patriarch Liang, what are you all hesitating for? Now that the situation is over, if you don't come over, you will all be hated by the royal family. Perhaps, you will all be annihilated." The black-haired middle-aged man tried to persuade them again.
The remaining three people were the most conservative among this group of people, causing their hearts to still wander, not knowing where to go.
"The Feng Family of Black Iron City has come to the Leng Family to give them a hand."
"The Yang family of Black Iron City has come to help the Leng family."
...
Suddenly, two groups of people rushed over from not far away. They were the Feng family of the Alchemy family and the Yang family of the Talisman making family.
A strange expression appeared on the faces of the onlookers. They originally thought that this young man had quite a background. It should be the Leng Family's people who provoked him. Only then did they lead the leaders of the various families to come and assist. However, it seemed like something was wrong with the plot.
When the Leng Family Patriarch and the others saw that the other two families' Patriarchs had come to help, they felt even more confident in their hearts. One after another, they went forward to welcome the two families' Patriarchs.
At this moment, how could the three people behind Ding Hao remain calm? Immediately, two of them walked forward and stood opposite of Ding Hao.
"Humph, you arrogant brat. I wonder what kind of evil cultivation technique you have cultivated. Your Cultivation has broken through so quickly, I'm sure you must have many flaws. Today will be the day you die." The patriarch of the Leng Family said with a disdainful look in his eyes.
A helpless expression appeared on Ding Hao's face. He spread his hands and said, "Since you all want to die, I'll grant your wish."
"Don't think so highly of yourself. We have eleven late Houtian experts and above on our side. You think you can kill us all by yourself? You must be dreaming." The patriarch of the Leng Family said.
In the eyes of the crowd, this young man with endless glory would die without a doubt. Those who knew that this young man had killed the City Lord also sighed. His bright future would be ruined today.
"Elder Ye, what are you hesitating for? Come here!" The Leng Family Patriarch shouted.
After a moment of hesitation, Ye Qingliu showed a solemn expression. Just as he made up his mind to move forward and walk forward, a powerful aura suddenly swept over, making him freeze on the spot.
"I am here. How would these rats dare to trouble young master to make a move? Leave them all to me." A loud shout rang out.
A middle-aged man wearing a grey shirt jumped out from the crowd and stood next to Ding Hao.
Among this group of people, only Elder Ye was the most experienced. When he saw the person who came, his pupils shrank and his face revealed a shocked expression. He exclaimed, "Thousand Hand Butcher Wang Xu! I didn't expect you to still be alive."
"Thousand Hand Butcher? It's actually him. It turns out that this youth has his backing. No wonder he dares to stand here without fear. " A patriarch recalled something and suddenly said loudly.
Ye Qingliu stood there dumbstruck. He was glad that he didn't take that step. This middle-aged man was a butcher who killed without blinking his eyes. The scariest thing was that his Cultivation had already reached the Xiantian realm. His strength was unfathomable, and none of these people were worth mentioning in his eyes.
The Leng Family Patriarch and the others were all shocked. Some of them even began to regret standing next to the Leng Family Patriarch. The middle-aged man in front of them was an Innate Stage Expert, and Wang Xu had already become famous when he was young. They were no match for this man.
"Leng Wufeng, we've been badly hurt by you." Someone complained.
Wang Xu's eyes swept across the crowd coldly. A powerful Qi pressed down on them, making them feel like they couldn't breathe.
After that, Wang Xu turned to Ding Hao and said respectfully with one knee on the ground, "Young Master Ding, I came uninvited. Please forgive me. I, Wang Xu, do not wish to have any status in young master. I just want to stay by young master's side. Please accept my kindness."
When everyone heard Wang Xu's words, they had a strange expression on their faces. A dignified Innate Stage Expert had actually knelt down in front of this young man, begging him to stay by his side.
This scene puzzled many people. One should know that in the Rising Sun Country, even an Innate Stage Expert would have some respect for his majesty.
"What is the identity of this young man? Even the Thousand Hand Butcher is so respectful?" Someone murmured.
