C13 (1/2)

Early morning. The sun shined brightly on the land.

It was another new day, the beginning.

In the early morning, there were plenty of people at the Wu manor's huge competition arena. Many people had already arrived at the competition arena, which was nearly a hundred meters in front of the audience, and had taken up the best viewing seats.

They were all here to watch a good show.

They didn't think that Wu Hao was able to reverse the reputation of being a trash. Just after he issued his challenge yesterday, there was a small rumor spreading around that Wu Yu's cultivation had broken through to the Houtian fifth heaven realm while trash Wu Hao was still at the First Sky of the Nascent Realm.

Although he was no longer trash and was finally able to cultivate inner strength, there was more than a gap between them.

Time trickled by, and soon, more and more people from the Wu Family were gathered on the stage. At this time, the crowd became restless, and then automatically split into two sides. Under the support of over a dozen Wu Family servants, Wu Yu slowly walked towards the round stage s that were over thirty meters wide with both of his hands behind his back.

Behind him, Jiao Ruhua was also accompanied by a middle-aged man dressed in black, his face gloomy and cold. Behind him were her middle-aged manager and a few servants.

A discerning person could tell that he was not a kind-hearted person, but actually one of the experts that Jiao Ruhua had transferred over from the Cloud Palace's side recently.

To be exact, it was an assassin.

”Eldest Miss, there's no need to be so aggressive. If you don't want him to live until tomorrow, you can order your subordinate to assassinate him!” The cold middle-aged man whispered into her ear.

”Sunset, I know that you were an assassin before and your power was not bad, but I did not dare determine if that trash Wu Hao had any experts protecting him, which was why I used this plan!” A cold light flashed in Jiao Ruhua's eyes as she replied him.

Secondly, I want you to observe in secret, to see if there are any experts around who are intentionally protecting Wu Hao. If Yu Er were to attack later, you have to stop him.

”So that's how it is. Subordinate understands. I will do my best in a while!” The other party was suddenly enlightened and nodded as he replied.

Sunset, a copper brand assassin in the Soul Breaker's Organization. However, he had made a wrong judgement during one of the missions, which resulted in him failing the mission and being expelled.

This person was sinister and bloodthirsty, just like his killer code name.

The sun was setting in the west, and the sky was long and dark without any sign of daylight!

As long as it was someone he had his eyes on, he would never see the sun on the second day.

This time, Jiao Ruhua was determined to kill Wu Hao, so it would be hard for him to escape, unless a miracle happened.

The crowd became restless once again, and the indifferent Wu Hao, accompanied by the old servant Mu Qian and maidservant Xiao Cui, slowly walked towards the stage.

Compared to Wu Hao's bland face, the two people beside him were actually more worried.

They were not sure if Wu Hao would be able to hold on in this round, if Wu Yu decided to go all out, who would be able to make the decision for him?

Walking in the crowd, the surrounding people started to look at him strangely, Wu Hao only glanced at them once, then shifted his gaze to a young maiden.

The young woman looked to be about twenty-five to twenty-six years old. Her temperament was extremely otherworldly and she had the elegance of a lady from a noble family.

Beside her stood a cute little girl who looked to be about two or three years old. Her eyes were wide open as she looked at him, who was advancing forward, with a curious expression on her face.

The young woman was none other than the one who Wu Haoran had accepted as his wife a few years ago, while the little girl beside her was her daughter, Wu Peiqi.

Gu Siya was born from a rich family, and her family's background was not any worse than Jiao Ruhua's family. Usually in Wu manor, he would be extremely gentle, attracting a lot of people's hearts.

Due to her family's background and the fact that she only had a daughter, she did not pose a threat to Wu Yu. Hence, at the moment, she was the only one Jiao Ruhua did not dare to offend.

Their gazes met, and Gu Siya nodded to him as a form of greeting.

Wu Hao merely smiled at her.

There was no change in his expression, but deep down he knew that his rise in power had already garnered the attention of the other party.

After Wu Hao appeared, it immediately attracted everyone's attention, and all of a sudden, they all revealed different expressions towards him.

There was contempt, there was pity, there was schadenfreude, there was heartache, and there was hardly any worry about him.

”Bitch, next year will be the day of your sacrifice!”

Jiao Ruhua turned and stared at Wu Hao, a cruel look flashing across her eyes that was very obscure.

Meanwhile, the black-clothed, gloomy middle-aged man by her side, Setting Sun, only narrowed his eyes and sized him up for a moment, and only for a short moment, he revealed a trace of a sneer.
