Chapter 1665 — A Gift of a Villa
Blue Hair's heart could barely take it anymore—he was furious and full of regret. If he had believed this thing just a little sooner, he would not have been so foolish as to take the Vacuum Wave Fist head-on, and now look at him: badly wounded, while Wei Zhao seemed completely untouched.
And even if Blue Hair had not been injured, against Wei Zhao's bizarre martial techniques he still had no confidence of certain victory. So by now he had already given up any thought of fighting Wei Zhao head-on. Looking at Wei Zhao, he said, "Impressive skills. But the world turns and the wheel spins—there will be plenty of time, and we shall meet again!"
"No need for a reunion—today you are not leaving!" Wei Zhao said, and walked toward Blue Hair. In Wei Zhao's eyes, this Blue Hair was absolutely a major threat. And as for what his martial techniques really were, Wei Zhao knew better than anyone: what martial techniques? They were nothing but inventions.
It was entirely possible that once Blue Hair got back and thought through the key points, he would come seeking revenge. How could Wei Zhao give him that chance?
This one was not like Leader Yu. Leader Yu had been frightened into submission by him, but this one—from what he said, he intended to come back and settle the score later. So how could Wei Zhao let him go?
Strike while the iron is hot, and finish him while he is down. If this one were released, the Hidden You Family—a family well versed in medicine and alchemy—might have him patched up in no time, and then he would come back to make trouble. So Wei Zhao had no intention at all of letting him go back.
As for the others, they were not the principals involved. Watching from the sidelines as they were, they simply could not have grasped his true depths. Even if they went back and told people that he knew the Rising Dragon Fist and the Wave Fist, people would only find it bizarre—they would never figure out Wei Zhao's real trump card.
"Kid, I am from the Hidden You Family, and a honored guest of the Hidden Tang Family. You had better think clearly before you act—do not bring trouble on yourself!" Blue Hair had not expected that Wei Zhao seemed to have no intention of letting him off, and was suddenly afraid.
He knew his own injuries. In his current state, to fight Wei Zhao head-on would be a road to certain death, and as for Yellow Hair and the others, they were simply of no help at all. So a wise man does not take a loss when the odds are against him—Blue Hair had no choice but to threaten Wei Zhao.
But Wei Zhao happened to be exactly the sort who was not afraid of threats. The Hidden You Family might be powerful in Wei Zhao's eyes, but it was not nearly enough to make him tremble with fear! He had already provoked the Hidden Zhao Family, the Hidden Pi Family, and the Hidden Yu Family, and there was also the Golden Bell Sect—he had even struck down their sect master. Did he fear one Hidden You Family now?
Though the Hidden You Family had more muscle, Blue Hair was nothing but one of their hangers-on. Wei Zhao was afraid that once he figured out the key points he would come make trouble, so it was better to make trouble for him right now.
"Oh, then for the sake of the fact that we are all here to offer birthday congratulations to the Hidden Tang Family Elder, I will not put you to death. But while death may be pardoned, hard punishment is hard to escape!" Wei Zhao said mildly. "If I just let you walk away like this, where would I put my face?"
Hearing Wei Zhao's words, Blue Hair actually felt relieved. So long as he was not killed on the spot, there was no problem—the Hidden You Family had many highly skilled physicians, and once he got back he could simply nurse his injuries at leisure. So he was no longer tense, and said, "How about I break off one of my own arms?"
"No need for so much trouble!" Wei Zhao had already come to stand before Blue Hair. All at once he reached out and pressed his palm over Blue Hair's crown, and a compressed true qi entered Blue Hair's head...
Blue Hair heard a muffled boom like a thunderclap beside his ear, and after that he knew nothing at all...
Wei Zhao had merely shattered the nerves and meridians in Blue Hair's brain. Unless someone like Wei Zhao were there to repair them, Blue Hair was bound to be an idiot for the rest of his life!
Young Master You did not yet know that Blue Hair had become an idiot, but at this moment he was glaring at Wei Zhao with utter venom, his eyes full of unwillingness and rage! Three times—three times in a row he had suffered a crushing loss at this thing's hands, and Young Master You's heart was filled with unbearable frustration!
What was more, that pretty girl beside Wei Zhao made his heart itch unbearably! Young Master You was no stranger to the world, but a pure and beautiful girl like Tang Yun he had never seen. Even if he had seen women of comparable looks, their bearing was far inferior.
How could the painted women of the pleasure quarters compare with Tang Yun? So while Young Master You secretly swore to teach Wei Zhao a lesson, he also secretly swore that he absolutely must get Tang Yun for himself!
Wei Zhao led Tang Yun and Feng Xiaoxiao into the tavern, while Blue Hair still stood there stock-still, dazed and unmoving.
Yellow Hair helped Young Master You up, and another one, Purple Hair, said to Blue Hair, "What are you still standing around here for? Young Master You has already left—hurry up and come on?"
But Blue Hair remained utterly motionless.
Purple Hair frowned and gave Blue Hair a push, and Blue Hair toppled straight to the ground. This gave Purple Hair a great fright: "What... what is this? Young Master You, Blue Hair, he..."
With that, Purple Hair hurriedly checked Blue Hair's breath, and found that it was still normal. He was at once perplexed, unable to tell what had happened to Blue Hair.
If you said Blue Hair had fainted, well, his eyes were still open; but if you said he had not fainted, he said nothing and did not move at all!
"Never mind what is wrong with him—just carry him back quickly, before we make a spectacle of ourselves here!" Young Master You looked at the people passing by nearby and felt his face burn. He was, after all, the second young master of the Hidden You Family, and now he had suffered such a great loss—it was nothing short of a humiliating disgrace!
"Yes!" Purple Hair hurriedly joined the others in dragging and hauling Blue Hair onto the business van, then rushed Young Master You back to the Hidden Tang Family in a fluster.
But at this moment the Hidden Tang Family was holding a family banquet, and Young Master You's eldest uncle was in the banquet hall. Though Young Master You was anxious to pour out his grievances, he could only wait in the guest room for his uncle and aunt to return.
Tang Jucheng and Wang Yujie sat beside Xiaoming, looking quite stiff and constrained. It was their first time at an occasion like this—when had they ever dined in the banquet hall of such a great family before?
Seeing that both Tang Jucheng and Mother Tang had the air of ordinary small-town folk, Elder Tang actually felt relieved. People like this should be easy to deal with and easy to satisfy, so he hurriedly shot Leader Tang a meaningful glance.
"Haha, Brother Jucheng, by seniority I ought to call you a clansman junior. This is the first time I, as your elder brother, have met you, and I have nothing to give you—here is a set of keys to a villa, right near our Hidden Tang Family. Consider it a welcome gift!" Leader Tang brought out the prepared villa keys and a file folder and handed them to Mother Tang: "Here are the purchase contract and the receipts for the house. The property certificate has not been processed yet—you can handle that yourselves!"
