"One 'father,' one 'many'? Isn't that character supposed to be 'dad'?"
"Yes!"
"No mistake!"
Hearing their replies, Hu Xiaobei nodded and excitedly said, "Yes, it's , my sons! You finally rember ! It must have been tough for you to still rember after being apart for so many years. It seems that blood is indeed thicker than water!"
Pfft!
Hearing Hu Xiaobei speak so excitedly, Bai ngng laughed...
So did everyone else...
In their eyes, Hu Xiaobei's tactic was simply too clever, playing them all like applauding clowns...
"You... you're playing ?"
As they heard the laughter from Bai ngng and the others, they gradually ca back to reality.
"Ah, you just figured that out!"
Hu Xiaobei looked at them, his face full of contempt...
Hu Xiaobei knew that it wasn't possible to beco friends with the other party now.
Naturally, there was no need to be too polite with them anymore...
"Fine! Fine! Fine! You... you're asking for death!"
Hearing such a furious response, Hu Xiaobei lazily waved his hand, "No need for the nonsense, it's pointless! If you've got the ability, then break my Array and make kneel and apologize! But pity for you, you don't have that ability!"
"You..."
They, flustered and exasperated, prepared to retort, but just as they opened their mouths, they saw Shao He step forward first.
They furrowed their brows slightly and then temporarily shut their mouths.
"My young Array Master friend, I am the Shao Family Head, Shao He! I think there must be so misunderstanding between us. So, as long as you're willing to back out of the fight between and the Bai Family, I'm willing to offer a generous gift. What do you say?"
After saying this, Shao He quietly waited for Hu Xiaobei's response...
Just now, Shao He had been observing Hu Xiaobei carefully from behind for a while, and he realized he had absolutely no recollection of Hu Xiaobei.
This discovery excited him.
He knew that if he had no recollection of him, then this person was not from the Bai Family...
In his view, since the other party was not from the Bai Family, there was definitely room for negotiation...
After all, people die for wealth, and birds die for food...
Hearing Shao He's enticing words, Hu Xiaobei smiled and asked with interest, "A generous gift? What might that be?"
Hearing Hu Xiaobei's interested question, Shao He laughed out loud and quickly said, "Whatever you want, we can discuss it! My sincerity is truly abundant."
"In that case, I want to be the Family Head of the Shao Family. What do you think? Of course, don't worry about taking over the entire Shao Family; once I beco the Family Head, I can give you a position as Vice Family Head."
As his smile faded, he looked at Hu Xiaobei darkly, and soon, he asked coldly, "Are you making fun of ?"
Feeling his annoyance, Hu Xiaobei spoke softly, "Oh, you can't say it like that! Didn't you say just now that any terms can be discussed? What now? You're turning your face already? That was quite the quick turnaround!"
"You..."
"Alright, if you can't agree to my request, then let's stop wasting words!"
"Fine! Fine! Fine! Just wait, I'll soon make you regret your current choice."
After making such a chilling statent, Shao He looked towards Bai Xuening and said coldly, "Bai Family Head, I believe you don't want to see a battle ensue, right? So, as long as you surrender completely, I can spare your entire family. How does that sound?"
Everyone fears death!
Shao He thought that Bai Xuening feared death as well, so she would give his proposal serious consideration for the sake of her entire family...
Thinking this, he heard Bai Xuening speak up softly, "To ask to surrender isn't impossible!"
"Really? Possible?"
"Yes! But I have one condition. You must agree to it!"
"Ha! As long as you agree, even a hundred conditions would be fine."
"Well... then I'll say it."
"Yes! You say it!"
"Alright! After our families rge, the Family Head told to take charge! Of course, I can offer you a position as Vice Family Head."
The smile gradually faded away...
Shao He, who had been full of smiles, found his grin ebbing away bit by bit at Bai Xuening's words...
At that mont, he realized that Bai Xuening, just like Hu Xiaobei, was mocking him!
Unacceptable!
Having been toyed with twice in a row, Shao He couldn't accept it...
It wasn't just Shao He who couldn't accept it—the younger mbers of the Shao Family couldn't either...
Seeing their Family Head humiliated, they wanted to rush forward and exact revenge, but they dared not act, knowing full well the terrifying power of Hu Xiaobei; in their eyes, no matter how many of them went up, it would be utterly aningless.
...
"You four, get up there, get up there, get up there! I want them dead, everyone dead."
In a complete loss of composure, Shao He hysterically scread...
The Xie Family mbers heard the blunt order and frowned deeply...
They knew they were rely collaborators with him—he had no authority to command them.
But seeing him in a fit of rage, they refrained from saying anything, expressionlessly preparing to attack...
They knew the opponent this ti was no easy target, so they were preparing to give it their all.
The man in black closest to Hu Xiaobei glanced at him and spoke coldly, "Originally, we planned to take you on one by one, but given your arrogance now, we've abandoned the idea of a fair fight."
Hearing this aningless drivel, Hu Xiaobei responded with disdain, "What a joke! If you all want to gang up, then co at ; you really think I would be afraid if four of you co together?"
"What dominance!"
Hu Xiaobei's confident retort led the Bai Family to praise him wholeheartedly...
...
"One against four? Since you're asking for it, we'll indulge you!"
Accepting the challenge, the four swiftly began to move their hands...
Instantly, all four of them aid their palms straight at Hu Xiaobei...
...
"They're starting to form an Array; this ti, Hu Xiaobei is definitely dood!"
Seeing the four simultaneously undertaking the Array, Shao He laughed excitedly from behind...
"Hm? This looks rather interesting!"
Narrowing his eyes, Hu Xiaobei turned to Bai Xuening and the others, whispering, "You guys stay back for now; I want to see just how good they really are!"
As Shao He was exhilarated, Hu Xiaobei turned to Bai ngng and the rest, speaking softly.
Hu Xiaobei knew that now he had to have them stay back further so that he could fight without any distractions.
Hearing Hu Xiaobei speak, Bai Xuening nodded...
"Okay, Xiaobei, you... you must be careful."
"Exactly! Big brother Xiaobei, you have to be careful."
Sensing Bai ngng's anxiety, Hu Xiaobei looked at her, chuckled lightly, and said, "Rest assured, ngng, I'll definitely be careful because I still have unfinished business. Later, I'll need your help to be my wingman."
"Wingman? What... What is that?"
The pure-hearted Bai ngng had never heard of the term 'wingman' before, so she was utterly confused at this mont.
Knowing it would be troubleso to explain, Hu Xiaobei directly passed the problem to Bai Xuening, "Regarding the wingman... just ask your mother later!"
"Oh!"
Having agreed, Bai ngng and the others retreated quite a distance...
After settling back, Bai ngng turned to Bai Xuening and asked, "Mom, can you tell , what is a 'wingman'?"
