Supremely Talented Tyrant-Chapter 551 - Conflict
"Ye Wenxi, back off! Don't forget who's leading this time!" Bai Suqin shouted angrily, yet with an exasperated look.
Higher-ups repeatedly instructed her to ensure that Hao Jian would join Yanbo Mansion, even if he couldn't become one of them, they must not make an enemy of him.
A person who could easily annihilate a Silver Level force was naturally terrifying beyond words.
Only then did Ye Wenxi reluctantly step back, but still fiercely glared at Hao Jian.
"Hao Jian, we've come with sincerity, hoping you would consider cooperating with our Yanbo Mansion!" Bai Suqin stated their purpose directly.
"Cooperate with you? Team up against Three Souls Hall? No, thanks. I don't want to be embroiled in your conflict!" Hao Jian outright rejected Bai Suqin's proposal, jokingly thinking, You want to use me as a pawn, do you think I'm a fool?
"Do you think you have a choice? You annihilated the Gathering Qi Sect, do you think Three Souls Hall will spare you? Let me tell you, Three Souls Hall is nothing like the Gathering Qi Sect, killing you would be as easy as slaughtering a dog! Without the support of our Yanbo Mansion, you're as good as dead!" Another handsome man spoke coldly, laughing. His name was Zhao Wuheng, and like Ye Wenxi, he was a prodigy of Yanbo Mansion.
Yanbo Mansion's upper echelons highly valued Hao Jian, but he was dismissive of it. In his view, it wasn't necessarily Hao Jian who had destroyed the Gathering Qi Sect. They had investigated Hao Jian's background and origin; he was just an ordinary person. It was impossible for him to annihilate a Silver Level force alone, something even Yanbo Mansion couldn't achieve, let alone him.
In his opinion, the downfall of the Gathering Qi Sect was definitely due to provoking some super-powerful force, like a Diamond Level force, and had nothing to do with Hao Jian.
To make Hao Jian submit, he should rightfully kneel and kowtow, giving thousands of thanks. Yet, he dared to show such an arrogant attitude, which was simply courting death!
"That's my business. What does it have to do with you?" Hao Jian scoffed.
Ye Wenxi's eyelids flashed with a fierce color as he sneered, "Do you know that people who are too arrogant usually don't live long?"
"I'm arrogant because I have the right to be. Why don't you try annihilating a Silver Level force and see?" Hao Jian sneered, finding it distasteful to deal with a kid who milked behind his ears thinking he was invincible.
"You are arrogant, but it's not a good thing. If you don't submit to our Yanbo Mansion, then you will be our enemy, and perhaps we will even join hands with Three Souls Hall. Are you sure you can withstand the attack of two Gold Level forces?" Zhao Wuheng asked sharply, his expression defiant.
"You can try!" Hao Jian, also angered, stared coldly at Ye Wenxi and Zhao Wuheng with a murderous look, daring them to threaten him on his own turf.
"Both of you, shut up!" Bai Suqin was angry, regretting bringing these two along, as they only seemed to cause trouble.
Before coming here, her master had specifically told her not to provoke Hao Jian, yet these two were doing just that.
Bai Suqin was speechless at the idiocy of these two. If it was really Hao Jian who had annihilated the Gathering Qi Sect, it meant his power had reached a terrifying level. He could erase the three of them in a blink, yet these fools were still provoking him. They were the ones truly courting death.
"Senior Sister, we need not bother with this haughty guy. If he doesn't join our Yanbo Mansion, he will surely be killed by Three Souls Hall!" Zhao Wuheng scoffed with contempt.
Bai Suqin repeatedly rolled her eyes, really at a loss for words.
"Are you done talking? If so, get out quickly and don't disturb us while we're eating." Hao Jian said rudely, issuing a direct order to leave to Bai Suqin and the others.
Bai Suqin wore a troubled look; having offended Hao Jian upon arrival, recruiting him was not going to be an easy task.
Upon hearing this, a fierce look instantly appeared in Ye Wenxi's eyes, and then a cold gleam shot out from his sleeve, slicing through the dining table in front of Hao Jian. The breakfast fell to the ground, and the bowls shattered, making a clattering noise.
"Attack then. I want to see if you're as formidable as my master says!" Ye Wenxi, holding a silver short sword, aimed it directly at Hao Jian's throat.
Hao Jian's casual demeanor irritated him; he wanted to see if Hao Jian really had the ability to annihilate the Gathering Qi Sect on his own.
"Ye Wenxi, have you lost your mind?" Bai Suqin was terrified; such provocation could incite any man of blood to retaliate, and this time they had completely turned Hao Jian into an enemy.
"Wow!" Tongtong was directly frightened into crying; she had just been enjoying her favorite egg pouch, which was knocked onto the floor by Ye Wenxi's sword.
"What are you doing?" Ruo Lan quickly held Tongtong, glaring angrily at Ye Wenxi. These people were really going too far; just because Hao Jian did not agree to their demands, they had resorted to smashing things in his house.
"What? Scared to fight?" Seeing Hao Jian remain silent, Ye Wenxi immediately sneered provocatively.
"Even unable to protect your own daughter and woman, it seems the rumors are false! I think someone else must have annihilated Gathering Qi Sect and killed Nangong Fenglin, not this kid!" Zhao Wuheng also burst into laughter.
Hao Jian still held the pose of picking up food, stunned for a few seconds before he finally put his hand down, then shook his head with a smile, "You really shouldn't act like this."
At this, Bai Suqin suddenly gasped. Was Hao Jian about to lash out?
"What? Finally planning to fight back? I thought you'd keep playing the weakling!" Ye Wenxi sneered derisively.
Hao Jian looked at Ye Wenxi, smiling enigmatically, "Is your sword very sharp?"
"In Yanbo Mansion, my swordsmanship is number one!" Ye Wenxi boasted proudly, as he was pinned with high hopes and destined to be a master someday.
His swordsmanship was so superior even his master felt inferior, and as a result, Ye Wenxi was quite pleased with himself.
"Is that so? Then try using your left hand to wield the sword from now on!" Hao Jian said indifferently.
"Seeking death!" Ye Wenxi, in a fit of rage, thrust his sword directly at Hao Jian's head.
At that moment, Hao Jian simply raised his hand and extended two fingers.
Clang!
With just two fingers, he firmly clamped Ye Wenxi's sword blade, making what seemed like a fierce strike appear powerless before Hao Jian.
Seeing this, Ye Wenxi and the other two were dumbfounded. It was already impressive to disarm a blade with bare hands, but Hao Jian did it with just two fingers, which was even more astonishing!
Bai Suqin was extremely shocked. She thought Hao Jian was terrifying enough, but only now, seeing this display, did she realize he was much more horrifying than she had imagined.
Ye Wenxi struggled to pull out his sword, but Hao Jian's hand was like a pair of iron tongs, unmoved no matter how hard he tried.
Hao Jian then pulled away Ye Wenxi's sword blade with his fingers and grabbed his throat with one hand, dragging him over.
"Hao Jian, don't!" Bai Suqin urgently shouted. This Ye Wenxi was a disciple of a highly respected Elder from Yanbo Mansion, and if Hao Jian really disabled him, there would be serious trouble.
"Take Tongtong out," Hao Jian said, ignoring Bai Suqin, speaking to Ruo Lan.
Ruo Lan, without speaking, immediately took Tongtong and left.
Hao Jian grabbed Ye Wenxi as if catching a dog. At that moment, Ye Wenxi's body hair stood on end, and he finally realized how foolish his mistake was; this man was not someone he could provoke.

"Be smarter in the future; don't think you're great just because you learned some mediocre Kung Fu," Hao Jian said coldly.
Ye Wenxi's face turned red. He was known as a genius disciple, and his strength was considered upper tier among martial artists. Yet, Hao Jian called his skills mediocre?
To others, Ye Wenxi was indeed strong, but in front of Hao Jian, it was just mediocre Kung Fu.
"Crack!"
Hao Jian directly crushed Ye Wenxi's arm. He didn't just break it; he chose to crush it completely, a wound not even a Daluo Golden Immortal could cure if they descended from the heavens.
"Ow!"
Ye Wenxi immediately screamed in pain, writhing on the ground, his forehead covered in cold sweat as he cried, "My hand, my hand!"
Without his right hand, how could he wield a sword?
"Next time, don't recklessly ruin someone's breakfast. Such behavior is truly impolite! This time I've only disabled one of your hands; next time I'll take your life!" Hao Jian looked down at Ye Wenxi, his demeanor very cold.
Bai Suqin also sighed, knowing that this was unlikely to end well. They had come hoping to win Hao Jian over, but had directly turned into deadly enemies instead.
"How dare you attack a genius from Yanbo Mansion? Yanbo Mansion won't let you get away with this!"
"Scram!"
Hao Jian rebuked harshly, his eyes sharply fixed on Zhao Wuheng. If Zhao Wuheng dared to speak another useless word, he would disable him as well.
Zhao Wuheng immediately swallowed his saliva, not daring to speak further. He didn't want to end up like Ye Wenxi. He could tell that Hao Jian was a madman and would not spare him simply because he was a disciple of Yanbo Mansion. Ye Wenxi was a clear example.
"Hao Jian, this incident was truly not my intention. I hope you can forgive me!" Bai Suqin hastily explained, not wanting to become hostile with Hao Jian.
"No need to say more, I won't cooperate with you or Yanbo Mansion!" Hao Jian said coldly.
"Why?" Bai Suqin couldn't help but ask.
"I and Ye Heavenly Mansion are sworn enemies. Can your Yanbo Mansion protect me?" Hao Jian scoffed coldly.
At this, Bai Suqin couldn't speak and just stared at Hao Jian, her mouth slightly agape in shock.
She had not expected Hao Jian to have a grudge against Ye Heavenly Mansion, which was a Diamond Level power, unequaled even by their own forces.
