Leo asked back without changing his expression, making the middle-aged man’s eyes twitch in irritation. A vein popped up on his temple. A green energy seeped out of his body, visible to naked eyes.
From the density alone, one could see that this person was at least 5 Stars martial artists.
"Listen, kid. We aren’t here to play gas. I will ask you one more ti, what is your na?" The middle-aged man said impatiently while trying to intimidate Leo by releasing his aura toward him.
Anya seed unfazed by it as she bit the bone of the at she ate without even glancing at them. She licked it clean and suddenly a clawed gauntlet covered her right hand. It touched the middle-aged man’s neck easily, piercing through the Qi defense covering his body.
"Look, man. My Leader is asking your na kindly and you threaten him. And you called him a kid too. Don’t you see that you have done enough disrespect here? I think you should be taught a lesson, yeah?" She moved her wrist playfully, causing blood to drip from the small wound she inflicted.
"How did-" The middle-aged man looked surprised as he tried to grab Anya’s hand. But he couldn’t.
Her hand moved fast and disappeared in an instant as if it was never there in the first place. Only a thin trail of blood could be seen dripping from her claw.
"Now, Anya. Let him speak." Leo gestured at her to step back before facing the Tang Clan’s mbers with a smile.
Looking at the fact they sent 5 Stars martial artists to et him ant they weren’t sent by Tang Jiuyang but soone higher than the young man.
’Now this is interesting. The killing intent directed to us was also gone when they entered the second floor as if they were just testing us. Martial artists really love those kinds of things. Are they not afraid that people could attack them imdiately?’
He mused before arriving at an answer himself. ’I guess not. They are from a large clan.’
Being a part of a large clan guaranteed power and respect. No one wanted to be their enemies, so no one attacked them in their territory.
"As I said, my na isn’t Thunder God but Leo. May I know your na now? And please pull back your Qi. I must be tiring to use it for this long."
The middle-aged man coughed before closing his eyes to calm down. With a frown, he retracted his aura and opened his eyes while giving Leo a glance as he introduced himself.
"My na is He Junyu, Tang Clan’s guard captain and currently the second Young Master Tang Yao’s protector. We have been ordered to send an invitation letter to you as soon as possible." He pulled out a brown envelope from his pocket and placed it on the table. "With that, our business is done. Let’s go, n."
"Wait." Leo called him before he turned away. "You forgot sothing."
He Junyu stopped and turned to Leo with a confused look on his face. "What did we forget?"
"The way to apologize." Leo replied casually. "Did you think you could just get away after being rude and showing off your Qi? Imagine if our position is reversed. I know you will try to kill for showing off like that. But because I am a kind and lenient person, I just need to hear your apology."
Silence surrounded the area as He Junyu’s face darkened and gritted his teeth angrily before regaining his composure and glaring at Leo with murderous gaze.
"I apologize for my rude attitude earlier."
Veins were visible on his forehead as he tried to suppress his anger from erupting while apologizing to Leo.
"We also apologize for interrupting your al ti with your friend."
Leo waved his hand while tilting his head with a grin on his face.
"No, it’s not a problem. Good work at delivering the letter."
After that, he didn’t speak anymore and observed them walking down the stairs slowly. Their stiff and rigid steps as well as the fact that so of them had a nervous expression showed how bad their mood was after being humiliated in public like that.
"Leader, you’re so evil~ You humiliate them in public. They must be really embarrassed. His face turned as red as a tomato!"
"Not as much as you." He chuckled lightly and took the envelope on the table before ripping it open. A letter with Tang Clan’s family symbol was inside. Leo read its content silently before sighing and saying, "There’s only one thing left to do now."
***
Leo looked at the luxurious Tang Clan’s manor with an indifferent expression on his face, yet at the sa ti he seed bored because he didn’t care about what was going on around him.
He returned again the next day due to the letter given by the second Young Master of Tang Clan, Tang Yao. He and Anya were invited to a party that was held before the tournant tomorrow.
Apparently, it was a way to apologize for the third Young Master’s rudeness against a strong martial artist. That was the pretense written in the letter.
Of course, it wasn’t as simple as that. Inviting soone who just humiliated their family, right in their manor, was just plain stupidity. There must be sothing in this party, or else Tang Clan would lose face in the future when Leo tells this story to others.
’I know that this is going to be troubleso.’
Entering through the front gate, the atmosphere seed different from yesterday as if sothing changed within the manor. Tang Clan’s guards were doubled than usual, and there were a lot of martial artists staying at the side.
They looked at Leo with a mix of curiosity and caution as he passed by them before whispering sothing among themselves. They must have heard about his action yesterday as well as what he did to Tang Jiuyang.
Fear and respect were shown on their faces. So, Leo acted like nothing happened.
As they got closer to the main hall, servants dressed in Tang Clan’s uniform ca out to guide Leo and Anya into the manor while bowing deeply to them with polite greetings on their lips.
"Welco to Tang Clan’s manor."
"Young Master Tang Yao and Young Miss Tang Soso are waiting for you in the main hall."
