"Oh my, what happened here, why did a fight break out? Can’t we talk things over nicely? There’s no fun in getting physical like this. Shi San, what’s going on?"

As Shi San was internally reeling from the physical and mental assault, he looked at Xiao Yi with an incredulous gaze. Suddenly, a flirtatious voice resounded from nearby. A woman, dressed in gaudy clothes, walked out from the inside, her charming eyes flashing with surprise as she looked at the aftermath of the recent fight, yet her face was adorned with a sweet smile as she looked at Shi San and Xiao Yi.

This woman was none other than Sun Hao’s lover, Hua Qingqing. Of course, Qingqing was merely her professional name. Since she set foot in the demimonde, she had forgotten her real name and even remade her identity card with the name Qingqing.

After she met Sun Hao, she left the demimonde to become his lover and quickly became his favorite. She could almost be considered Sun Hao’s only lover. The reason she attained such a position wasn’t just because of her beauty but also her intelligence. She liked to use her brain, and she understood very well that in this world, beauty alone was not enough. Men nowadays had high requirements; beauty alone couldn’t meet their demands, especially after the popularization and spread of cosmetic surgery.

That’s why, whether in the demimonde or as a lover, she took her role seriously, almost treating it as a career. Before long, she got everything she wanted. She successfully climbed up to and secured Sun Hao, a man who was much more than what met the eye. She even earned Sun Hao’s trust, respect, and reliance.

She was just flirting with Sun Hao in a corner and didn’t notice the commotion here until the consecutive screams alerted her. After a brief moment of astonishment at the scene, she promptly volunteered to come over and inquire about the situation.

As she arrived, she was thoroughly shocked. Not only were the thugs on the ground all beaten down, but even Shi San, whom Sun Hao heavily relied on, seemed to have been injured. She had heard from Sun Hao that Shi San had reached the realm of a legendary master, rumored to be only one or two levels below Lord Hong!

Did this young man really do all this?

"He... is a... Bone Tempering... Middle Tier master, go... call Lord Hong!"

Upon hearing Hua Qingqing’s voice, Shi San finally snapped back to reality from the pain, his pupils constricted sharply as he looked at Xiao Yi and uttered the words with difficulty.

"Who are you? Call Sun Hao out. If he doesn’t show, I’ll start smashing this bar."

Xiao Yi glanced at the woman and frowned at her seductive smile and garish outfit, a flash of disgust crossing his eyes.

"Young man, why so hot-tempered? Let’s talk nicely. What business have you got with Brother Hao?"

Hua Qingqing’s face changed drastically as she heard Shi San’s words. Although she didn’t know what it meant to be a Bone Tempering Middle Tier master, she understood Shi San’s instruction to call Lord Hong, which meant the pretty boy in front of her was a master of the same caliber as Lord Hong! After hearing Xiao Yi’s words, she quickly composed herself and faced Xiao Yi with an incredibly enchanting smile, giving him a sultry look and laughingly said.

"Don’t smile like that, it’s revolting. Also, I have no interest whatsoever in your kind of woman. Don’t throw such nauseating looks at me, or I will make sure you never smile again in your life. Cut the crap and call Sun Hao out right now."

Xiao Yi’s face showed undisguised disgust as he said coldly.

"You..."

Hua Qingqing could never have imagined that her usually foolproof tactics would have such an effect in front of Xiao Yi. Upon hearing Xiao Yi’s words and seeing his undisguised look of contempt and disdain, she suddenly found herself gasping for air, her delicate face turning deathly pale, her lips cyanotic, as she pointed a finger at Xiao Yi but couldn’t utter a single word.

When had Hua Qingqing ever heard such impolite words? Even though she was a woman of the night, and those foul men might look down on her in their hearts, they would still compliment her to her face, acting obsequious, but ever since she followed Sun Hao and became one of his trusted people, no matter where she went, everyone had to respectfully call her Sister Hua.

"Don’t point your hand recklessly, or I won’t be polite even if you are a woman."

Xiao Yi casually swatted the woman’s hand away, speaking coldly, "If by the time I count to three for the last time, Mr. Sun still hasn’t appeared, tonight, this bar is done for, one..."

"Friend, may I know what matter you have with Mr. Sun?"

Just as Xiao Yi began to count, a man’s voice came from nearby.

"Are you Sun Hao? The owner of this bar?"

Xiao Yi turned around and sized up the speaker. The man appeared to be around forty years old and exuded a refined aura. Beside him stood another man who was both skinny and short, and from his appearance alone, it was difficult to discern his age.

"Indeed, my name carries the character Hao, and I own this bar. However, I don’t recall being acquainted with you, young man. What do you need from me? As long as it’s within my power, I will do my utmost to oblige," said the man who approached. He was Sun Hao. When Hua Qingqing had come over, he hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he couldn’t rest easy and followed her. Before coming over, he had also called for Lord Hong.

The moment he arrived, he saw Xiao Yi brush away Hua Qingqing’s hand and speak to her. Anger immediately rose in his heart. The entirety of G City knew the identity of the person behind him; even the people from the Four Great Families—Zhao, Han, Li, and Zeng—would show him some respect. When had someone dared to be so brazen in front of him?

But he still suppressed his anger. Compared to Hua Qingqing, he was more aware of what the Bone Tempering Period meant for Shi San. Before Shi San had entered the Bone Tempering Period, Sun Hao was already very aware of Shi San’s strength. Most of the difficult tasks were carried out by Shi San, and the night Shi San entered the Bone Tempering Period, he had demonstrated his power to Sun Hao by shattering a solid Giant Rock with one punch, sending it splintering into pieces. That Energy, he remembered it vividly to this day.

What did it mean for this young man to have made Shi San take a loss?

It meant that, at a minimum, his strength was even greater than his own!
