"Perhaps, but that's only within the Eastern European Kingdom. On the continent, your horses are very ordinary. You should go out and see the outside world, though you probably won't have that chance anymore." Xiaoyao was already full of helplessness toward this Cao family young master and could only describe him with four words—
"Are you mocking ? Trying to say I'm a frog at the bottom of a well?" That Cao family young master said coldly.
"Oh, you're not completely hopeless after all—at least you have self-awareness." Xiaoyao seed to have an expression like discovering a new continent, making everyone on scene feel speechless. You're being way too obvious with your sarcasm.
"Who exactly is hopeless? Haha, I was just buying ti. Look, my people are here." That Cao family young master let out wild laughter. At this ti, outside the plaza, quite a few people and horses seed to have arrived. These people definitely wouldn't be here to help Xiaoyao, because Xiaoyao was a lone figure here without such forces.
"Little divine doctor, you should leave quickly. We'll hold them off here."
There were people to help Xiaoyao—they were all here, the small mountain village villagers. They could disregard life and death just now, and they could do so now too. However, they felt it would be better for Xiaoyao to leave first, because the other side had quite a few people.
One could imagine that with the Cao family young master in trouble, East Sea City would definitely bring their strongest violent organizations. Although they didn't have that many experts, they had much greater numbers.
In these villagers' eyes, even if one expert could defeat ten people, they still felt those ten people were sowhat more powerful, let alone when this ratio was even higher.
...
"It's fine. It's normal for them to bring reinforcents—I expected it. I'm just waiting here for them." Xiaoyao said unconcernedly.
"Stop pretending to be a prophet. If you want to escape, do it now—there might still be a chance to get away." That Cao family young master said. He seed to have forgotten his own predicant.
Xiaoyao was too lazy to discuss these issues with him and just smiled at him, saying, "Tell , if I kill you now, can they arrive in ti to save you?"
"..." The Cao family young master fell silent.
Not to ntion Xiaoyao's terrifying hidden weapon abilities, just Xiaoyao's General Level strength alone could easily kill the Cao family young master more than ten tis before those reinforcents arrived.
Therefore, if Xiaoyao wanted to kill him, it had no causal relationship with whether those reinforcents ca or not—it depended on Xiaoyao's own intentions.
"Don't worry, I don't want to kill you yet, because you're still sowhat useful." Xiaoyao said indifferently, calmly waiting for those people to co over.
"What do you want to do?" The Cao family young master asked. He seed to sense sothing frightening. Xiaoyao's attitude looked like he was really waiting for people to co. If that were the case, wouldn't that an he was really waiting here?
If so, then what did he want to do...
"You'll know very soon." Xiaoyao smiled and didn't answer the Cao family young master's question. Instead, he turned to the old man's son and said, "I'll have to trouble you later."
"??" The old man's son felt confused. Why was Xiaoyao suddenly saying this?
Could it be that he wanted him to help block them? If so, he would do it without hesitation—after all, he had saved his father.
The old man's son wasn't afraid of this and stood calmly in place.
"Bold bandit. Quickly release our young master."
After those reinforcents arrived, soone seed to be shouting from behind. This person was from the Cao family, but at this mont, they all seed to be behind those reinforcents—not one person stood in front.
Because they were afraid—afraid that Xiaoyao would wave his hand and make all of them accompany those previous people to hell.
However, afraid as they were, they still had to make a gesture to let the Cao family young master know they hadn't really fled but had made a strategic retreat.
At the sa ti, Xiaoyao had now been categorized as a bandit.
"Don't co over, or I'll kill him." As Xiaoyao spoke, he also stepped on that Cao family young master, making him cry out miserably to warn those reinforcents.
"You're already surrounded. Quickly release our young master—this way you still have a way to live." Those Cao family people shouted, but still remained only in the back.
"Release him and you'll have no scruples. Don't say these aningless things. However, you got one thing right—I am indeed a bandit, and I'm going to kidnap your young master." Xiaoyao said with a smile, placing that Cao family young master on the thousand-li horse that had caused this incident.
Of course, the Cao family young master already had no ability to move and was like a dead dog. Except for being able to speak, he had almost no capabilities. This was because Xiaoyao had temporarily sealed all his mobility, making him seem paralyzed.
This was only temporary, but if necessary, Xiaoyao would make this condition permanent. This was certainly sothing the Cao family young master wouldn't want to see, but he wouldn't know about this situation because he still felt he would be rescued.
Whether to say he had confidence or was pitiably ignorant.
"Give up on this idea. We won't let you kidnap the young master."
"Oh, won't let kidnap him? That's fine too—I'll just kill him now." A gleaming dagger appeared in Xiaoyao's hand, and he directly slashed the Cao family young master's body.
"Ah."
The Cao family young master let out a miserable scream. He hadn't expected Xiaoyao would directly attack, giving him no chance to say Xiaoyao wouldn't dare, because Xiaoyao had already proven he dared to do this.
Xiaoyao just didn't want to waste words. He knew these people would definitely say he wouldn't dare, that the Cao family wouldn't let him go, and similar words. Rather than waste saliva, it was better to let this Cao family young master bleed a little—after all, it wasn't his own blood.
"Ah, you actually dare..."
Xiaoyao directly interrupted the other party's words, playing with the dagger and saying, "If you continue wasting words, I'll poke a hole in him. Also, let remind you—if a person bleeds too much, they'll still die."
"..."
"You useless fools, quickly co save . My blood isn't as cheap as yours. And you—I won't let you go." The Cao family young master clamored.
"..." Xiaoyao fell silent. This Cao family young master was truly an extre case—he actually still dared to clamor. Should he continue letting so blood?
Think it and do it—what was there to wait for...
"Ah."
The Cao family young master cried out miserably again, and another wound appeared on his body, blood flowing directly.
"You..."
"I forgot to explain sothing to you. Although I don't want you to die, if you insist on seeking death, I don't mind sending you on your way." Xiaoyao said indifferently. This imdiately silenced the Cao family young master. Even the most idiotic person would know to shut up in such circumstances, or there would be more wounds and more blood flowing.
Xiaoyao wanted to achieve a goal through the Cao family young master, but this goal could still be achieved even if he killed this Cao family young master—the effect would just be sowhat worse.
"Stop. What do you want? Just say it—don't hurt our young master anymore." The Cao family people were now afraid. This kid before them simply didn't care about that bastard young master's life or death. Although they also wanted him dead, if he died, they would be in disaster.
"What do I want? Didn't I just say—I'm kidnapping him. Tell your master that if he wants him to live, prepare the ransom." Xiaoyao said.
After those people were silent for a while and confird what they heard was real, they said, "How much ransom do you want?"
In their hearts, there seed to be more words they wanted to tell Xiaoyao—they wanted to tell him he probably wouldn't have the life to take the ransom when the ti ca. Of course, they didn't say this out loud because Xiaoyao's recent actions made them afraid he would really take action.
In their eyes, Xiaoyao was a madman. If he wasn't a madman, how could he target the Cao family? How could he do such crazy things?
"Not much—just a hundred thousand taels of silver will be enough." Xiaoyao said casually.
"A hundred thousand taels? Why don't you just rob people." That Cao family young master couldn't help saying.
"Are you an idiot? I'm robbing right now." Xiaoyao replied.
"..."
"This hundred thousand taels of silver—isn't that too much? I think even if the family head wanted to pay, he couldn't co up with this amount." Those Cao family people frowned slightly.
A hundred thousand taels was an astronomical figure for commoners, and also an astronomical figure for great families. Even great families couldn't casually co up with this amount.
"If he can't co up with it, then let him co collect the corpse." Xiaoyao said. "Also, I want silver—actual silver, not any bank notes. There also can't be any markings."
"This..."
"What 'this'? Just tell my father—let him think of a way." That Cao family young master roared. He wanted to resolve this matter quickly—not because he was afraid of Xiaoyao, but because his blood kept flowing and he already felt his life force seed to be ebbing away. This was what made him feel afraid and anxious.
What he ant by "think of a way" wasn't just thinking of ways to raise money, but also thinking of ways to save him and kill Xiaoyao...
"Yes, yes, I'll tell the master. Um, what should we call you?" Those Cao family people asked Xiaoyao's na. However, they weren't trying to show respect to Xiaoyao but wanted to know more clues. A na would naturally be the biggest clue.
"I'm called Xiaoyao. If you're interested in investigating, go ahead. By the ti you've investigated thoroughly, your young master will probably already be dead." Xiaoyao waved his hand, not very concerned about them investigating him, directly telling them his na.
In fact, what did it matter if he told them this na? Although not many people used the na Xiaoyao, there weren't few either. To investigate all of them clearly, they probably couldn't do it in this lifeti, let alone before paying the ransom.
