Chapter 406 - Each of Them Had Their Own Schemes and Their Goals Were Achieved
Although Uncle Hai and his group didn't provide much assistance this time, Jiang Hao was not one to hold a grudge. He personally prepared medicinal meals for them, boosting their martial cultivator levels significantly. After a few rounds of these special dishes, they all experienced a notable increase in their abilities: Uncle Hai ascended to the fourth level, Song Wen to the third, and the remaining three reached the second level.
The uproar from these events was impossible to ignore. The Hsu Family's lackeys, initially sent to apprehend Jiang's parents and Jiang Zixuan, were left in a pitiable state after Jiang Hao subjected them to a diluted form of the Ten Days Heartbroken Powder. To the uninformed, it seemed like a mysterious contagious disease was sweeping through the tranquil city, causing panic and fear among the populace.
The significant actions taken by Jia Renjie and Soong Wanzhong that day did not go unnoticed. Moreover, the Hsu Family's peculiar activities, along with their young master's attempt to seize Jiang Hao's family, were exposed by those with vested interests.
The outcome was as clear as day: the Hsu Family provoked Jiang Hao, who then made his appearance, leading to their downfall. Now fragmented and under pressure from both the Jia and Soong families, the once great martial arts household of Tianhee City faced ruin once again.
Yet, this was merely the tip of the iceberg. The Seclusion Family, the Lv Family, long coveting the Baiqi Killing Sword, finally realized the gravity of the situation. They recognized the presence of a formidable entity in Tianhee City that was beyond their reach.
Since Lv Yingyu's unsuccessful attempt to claim the Baiqi Killing Sword from Jiang Hao, the Lv Family had been acutely aware of him. Despite Lv Yingyu's cautionary advice about Jiang Hao's inscrutable strength and the Lv Family's inability to contend with him, they refused to be intimidated by mere words. Nevertheless, they couldn't help but exercise greater caution, even if they believed Lv Yingyu's assessment of Jiang Hao to be somewhat overstated.
Moreover, they were well aware that the Nether King's Hall wouldn't just let things slide. So, they remained hidden in the shadows, silently observing everything that unfolded.
The Nether King's Hall was a test of Jiang Hao's mettle.
They were already privy to the fact that the Fifth, Seventh, and Eighth Elders had previously coerced the Soong family.
They had assumed this would be the opportunity to gauge Jiang Hao's capabilities, but to their surprise, the Fifth and Seventh Elders had been forced to retreat in defeat!
This turn of events forced them to finally acknowledge Jiang Hao's power.
This time, the Nether King's Hall had dispatched a hall master, along with nine great elders, to back the Hsu Family in capturing Jiang Hao's relatives, thereby pressuring Jiang Hao into action.
While this move shocked them, it also highlighted the Nether King's Hall's regard for Jiang Hao.
Reluctantly, they recognized that Jiang Hao possessed the strength to severely damage, or even annihilate, the Lv Family.
They were convinced that Jiang Hao was facing certain death.
That was the consensus among them all.
However, as they wore grave expressions and mourned for Jiang Hao in advance, the ultimate outcome defied their predictions once again.
Jiang Hao emerged unscathed, the Hsu Family was decimated, and the Nether King's Hall's hall master, along with the nine great elders, vanished without a trace.
Shortly after Jiang Hao's departure, someone stealthily entered the Hsu Family's residence, only to leave moments later, their face etched with horror.
From that moment on, Tianhee City became a no-go zone.
Intelligence agents from all quarters disseminated the news far and wide.
No one could afford to overlook Jiang Hao anymore, nor did any power dare to reach out against him recklessly.
Jiang Hao had cemented his fearsome reputation with the blood of his foes.
His strategy of making an example out of one to warn others had indeed paid off.
With no further disturbances, Jiang Hao's vacation life resumed its tranquil course.
He spent his days helping his family members enhance their strength, and now, there was a new addition to his circle of pupils—Soong Wan.
