Chapter 1301 - 1300: Genuine Fireball
"I go to school every day, never late, love studying, love working hard, when I grow up, I want to serve the people and make a contribution."Singing a happy tune, Tang Rao walked with a brisk and light step to the entrance of the Gentle Hometown.
This was the "school" Tang Rao referred to. In this university of society, Tang Rao could learn a lot of knowledge he wouldn't be able to acquire elsewhere.
"Hello, Boss."
"Hello, Boss."
As soon as Tang Rao entered the door, the girls greeted him collectively. Most of their impressions of Tang Rao came from Bai Xiaotong's words.
From the first day at work, Bai Xiaotong had told the girls that Tang Rao was their true boss. Whatever Tang Rao said was final. Here, they could be disrespectful to anyone, except for Tang Rao.
Looking at the corporate culture Bai Xiaotong had painstakingly trained into the girls in a short time, Tang Rao nodded with satisfaction.
He even thought how great it would be if the girls could really follow his commands as their boss.
"Where's Bai Xiaotong?"
Tang Rao called Bai Xiaotong's name directly. The girls were already accustomed to it and pointed to one of the rooms. When they looked at the door, they seemed a bit hesitant.
"Boss, be careful, the people inside can be troublesome."
Looks like Bai Xiaotong was in trouble?
Tang Rao immediately grasped the situation.
"I'll go take a look, see who dares to mess with her."
Tang Rao, singing a social shake, directly proceeded upstairs and kicked open the door. Bai Xiaotong was smiling as she toasted the person inside, but unfortunately, the person didn't appreciate it.
The people inside were startled by the sudden intrusion.
These people were really wild, hardly saying a few words before they started attacking Tang Rao directly.
"Tang Rao, watch out."
Bai Xiaotong hadn't expected Tang Rao to appear in such a place.
She put down her cup and moved to a place she thought was relatively safe, leaving the battlefield open for Tang Rao.
A few underlings were instantly defeated by Tang Rao.
In the blink of an eye, they were all lying on the ground. Tang Rao clapped his hands, kicking away the guy lying like a dead dog at his feet.
"Zhou Yong, you've come again?"
Tang Rao immediately recognized the man in front of him.
At the opening, Tang Rao had taught this guy a lesson, thinking he wouldn't show up for a while. But no, before the slap even settled, he was back for more.
"Even without Liu Yu, you've found your way to death, impressive."
Tang Rao gave Zhou Yong a thumbs up.
"Average, average. Last time I didn't deal with you, this time see how I do it."
Tang Rao took a deep breath, shocked by Zhou Yong's bravado.
"Come on then, I want to see how you'll deal with me."
As soon as the words left his mouth, Tang Rao punched Zhou Yong in the nose, causing Zhou Hao to cover his nose in pain, unable to regain his senses for a long time.
"Did it feel good? Just tell me, did it feel good?"
Zhou Yong's nose was directly broken, how could it possibly feel good?
"Weren't you going to do something to me? Let's see what you can do to me?"
Messing with Tang Rao, why doesn't he just fly to the moon?
"Tang Rao, is this how you do business?"
If all businesses were as violent as Tang Rao's, customers would definitely leave in anger.
"Yeah, that's my style. If you don't like it, you don't have to look, you can turn a blind eye."
You don't have to come either. Gentle Hometown only serves those with manners; someone like Zhou Yong should be added to the blacklist.
"Tang Rao, you think I'm the only one causing trouble at Gentle Hometown? Hahaha, take a look downstairs, isn't it already chaos?"
This was Zhou Yong's "friendly" reminder to Tang Rao.
Just as Tang Rao entered, Zhou Yong's men also arrived.
They came fully prepared today, aiming to make a statement. Zhou Yong seeking revenge, while his subordinates aimed to seize the lucrative Gentle Hometown.
As Zhou Yong finished speaking, chaos erupted downstairs.
The wailing sounds were transmitted from below.
Tang Rao had hired quite a few mid-level middle gods to guard Gentle Hometown, yet there's audacity among those who came, proving they weren't weak.
"Zhou Yong, you'd better pray my people downstairs aren't in any big trouble, or I'll rip your skin off."
Tang Rao pushed the door open and left Zhou Yong there holding his nose, laughing out loud.
Outside, Huo Zun and Huo Qi, the father and son duo, thoroughly cleansed Gentle Hometown from the literal doorstep.
These two were ruthless; while sparing women, they beat all diners and patrons inside and threw them out.
This father-son pair was somewhat clever; after Zhou Yong scoped out that there wasn't anyone particularly strong dining within, they came in, wary of encountering someone formidable, that might get rid of them before a fight broke out.
"Huo Zun, all healed up? Look at your dad, he's been loitering outside my door for ages, still breathing!"
Tang Rao chose the most provoking words. Huo Zun and Huo Qi's father and son were infuriated, glaring and feeling complex inside.
"Tang Rao, let's see how long your arrogance lasts today!"
This was Huo Zun's retort, given his more fiery and easily provoked nature compared to Huo Zun.
"I can't be overly arrogant, only able to make sure you die."
Before heading out, Tang Rao considered when he'd use his Quenching Fire Palm; then it struck him — wasn't Huo Zun the perfect target for practice?
"Oh, what bold words, I must see how you make me..."
...I must see how he'll kill me.
Before the sentence finished, Tang Rao's Quenching Fire Palm struck Huo Zun.
How powerful was the Quenching Fire Palm?
Tang Rao didn't know.
Being the first to test this, Tang Rao could only say, after delivering that palm, he felt almost ethereal, close to floating up to life's pinnacle.
Huo Zun was struck out from the doorway, turning into a fireball the moment the palm hit him. He was engulfed in flames, with the Wind Martial Technique amplifying the fire, and soon, Huo Zun was burned to ash on the ground.
"Sorry about that, your son just begged me to give it a try; I couldn't refuse his wish. How about a test yourself?"
Tang Rao smirked sideways, appearing more like a street punk.
Huo Zun was mid-level during the middle of divine, Huo Zun in the late phase; their father-son strength gap wasn't significantly large. Middle phase spins out alright, late phase naturally wouldn't present substantial issues either.
He fights beyond his level, useful previously, and still presumably worthwhile now.
"Tang Rao, you killed Zun Er, you just killed my son!"
Huo Qi was furious beyond measure.
The one who transformed into a fireball just now was indeed Huo Qi's son; he couldn't believe he'd have to witness his son die like this in front of him in his lifetime.
"Yes, I did. You saw it with your own eyes."
