Upon hearing Hua XiYi’s words, Thunderbolt Man was even more perplexed.
He had wanted to slap Luo yang earlier but didn’t succeed. Now, seeing his goal within reach, he was stopped by the two beauties, leaving Thunderbolt Man quite unwilling.
"Xiao Xiao Niu, you don’t recognize ?" Thunderbolt Man said angrily.
"Haha! Long browed Monster! I’m not afraid of anyone!" Hua XiYi replied firmly.
Seeing the two about to resort to violence, Aunt Thirteen and Lan Ya stepped in to diate.
"Old Thunderbolt, wait till we’re done with him, then it’s your turn," Aunt Thirteen said.
"Thirteenth little Sister! I’m determined to beat him up!" Thunderbolt Man declared.
As he spoke, he moved forward again.
But Aunt Thirteen and Hua XiYi both stepped in front of him to block his way.
Lan Ya also used her body to block, urging, "Uncle Long Eyebrow, please calm down. Let’s settle things one at a ti."
With three beauties supporting Luo yang, Thunderbolt Man was furious.
If he simultaneously battled Aunt Thirteen and Hua XiYi, it would an offending Jiuyang Hall and Shi Sheng Palace.
Thinking it over, Thunderbolt Man reluctantly said, "Fine! I’ll let you deal with him first, and then it’ll be my turn!"
However, Hua XiYi and Aunt Thirteen both disagreed.
The two won made it clear that they wouldn’t let Thunderbolt Man bully Luo yang, which deeply hurt Thunderbolt Man.
To forcibly engage would an fighting Aunt Thirteen and Hua XiYi, and that’s sothing Thunderbolt Man didn’t want to see.
Just then, Lan Ya persuaded, "Uncle Long Eyebrow, deal with him later. Right now, we still have to handle Ban Pi."
Hearing Lan Ya’s words, Thunderbolt Man found a way to step back and coldly said, "Young man! For their sake, I’ll let things slide for tonight, but I’ll settle this with you later!"
After Thunderbolt Man’s disturbance, Hua XiYi and Aunt Thirteen released their hold on Luo yang’s arms, much to his advantage.
"Thirteenth little Sister, are you okay after being poisoned?" Thunderbolt Man asked, looking at Aunt Thirteen’s leg.
"I’m fine," Aunt Thirteen replied.
Upon further inquiry, learning that it was Luo yang’s antidote that cured her, Thunderbolt Man was surprised as he sized up Luo yang.
"Young man, mixing with a demon like Ban Pi at such a young age will get you in big trouble. Now tell us about your dealings with Skull Fortress!" Thunderbolt Man demanded in a commanding tone.
He thought Luo yang would obediently confess.
Instead, Luo yang said, "Things aren’t as you think. If you want to know the truth, you’ll have to wait. I’m leaving now."
Thunderbolt Man angrily said, "I haven’t agreed yet, and you think you can leave?"
He prepared to make a move.
However, Hua XiYi and Aunt Thirteen blocked his way again. By now, everyone was agitated. If they stayed together, it would only lead to an argunt, so they allowed Luo yang to leave first.
If Thunderbolt Man dared to pursue, Luo yang wasn’t afraid of him.
Returning to the car, Sasha asked, "What happened?"
Luo yang said, "It’s a long story."
Driving far away, he didn’t see Thunderbolt Man following.
Only then did Luo yang call Ban Pi. The call connected, and he said, "Mr. Ban Pi, I’m really sorry about tonight."
There was no response from the other end.
Luo yang had to add, "Mr. Ban Pi, do you think I set you up?"
He heard Ban Pi coldly reply, "Wasn’t it you?"
For the mont, Luo yang found it hard to explain.
"Mr. Ban Pi, I assure you, I have no intention to harm you. I lack the courage," Luo yang said.
"Explain yourself to Lord Bao!" Ban Pi said coldly.
With that, he hung up.
If Ban Pi decided to secretly target Shuiyue and Jinghua, it would be tricky.
As the saying goes: an open attack is easy to guard against, a hidden one is hard to avoid.
Luo yang imdiately called Lord Bao.
He connected, saying, "Lord Bao, sothing’s happened."
Presumably, Lord Bao already knew about the siege on Ban Pi.
"You actually brought people to kill him?" Lord Bao’s words carried anger.
"Madam Teng, people from Shi Sheng Palace were following , I didn’t bring them," Luo yang said.
Luckily, having ntioned it to Lord Bao earlier, this excuse was still plausible now.
"Bring Aunt Thirteen’s head to prove it! Then I’ll believe you," Lord Bao responded coldly.
"Alright! But give so ti. Aunt Thirteen is quite suspicious of ; killing her isn’t easy. But I have a way to deal with her," Luo yang said.
If he failed to promise Aunt Thirteen’s head, Lord Bao might order Luo yang to et her imdiately.
With no other options, a quick lie was the only way to pacify Lord Bao.
But how long he could stall was uncertain.
"How long will it take?" Lord Bao asked.
"Madam Teng, I can’t guarantee, but it won’t be too long," Luo yang replied.
Getting a delay of ten days or so would be good.
A couple of months would be perfect.
While Luo yang was making his plans, he heard Lord Bao say, "I’ll give you one day!"
Hearing this, Luo yang felt that things weren’t looking good.
What could be done in one day?
Moreover, Luo yang didn’t truly intend to kill Aunt Thirteen; he just wanted more ti to cultivate Ferocious Power and the Flying Sword Technique.
If he mastered the Flying Sword Technique, even if Lord Bao ca in person, Luo yang wouldn’t be afraid.
Unfortunately, Blood Devil was still trapped inside the Chaos Orb. Without Blood Devil, Luo yang had no sword to use.
These vexing issues put Luo yang in a bind on all sides.
"Madam Teng, I can’t manage it in such a short ti," Luo yang said.
"Then you must die!" Lord Bao coldly replied.
It was clear she wasn’t joking.
Luo yang said, "Madam Teng, I’m helping you with your illness and finding Blood Devil. Now you want to deal with Aunt Thirteen, give a little leeway, about a week, how about it?"
The other end of the line went silent.
If not for waiting on Luo yang’s treatnt, Lord Bao would’ve likely sent soone to kill him already.
Seizing the indecision, Luo yang quickly added, "Madam Teng, when I bring Aunt Thirteen’s head to you, I should also have the cure for your illness. Allow to live a few more days, alright? If I’m lying to you, would you lose anything by killing later?"
Having said this much, Lord Bao replied, "Then I’ll give you a few more days! If you fail the task, bring your own head to !"
Finally having cald Lord Bao down, Luo yang was just about to breathe a sigh of relief.
Then he heard Lord Bao say, "Tonight, hand Shuiyue and Jinghua to Ban Pi, and let him bring their heads back to !"
On hearing this, Luo yang’s heart sank.
"Madam Teng, I’m telling you. I’m still being tracked by Shi Sheng Palace, aside from them, Liu Dao Mansion has also set their sights on . If I et Ban Pi again, those people will kill ," Luo yang said.
The other end of the line fell silent again.
Luo yang continued pressing his advantage: "Madam Teng, Sister Yue and Sister Jing have already taken your poison; they won’t live long. Are you still afraid they won’t die? If you force to see Ban Pi, I won’t be able to kill Aunt Thirteen. Once I kill Aunt Thirteen, I’ll then take Shuiyue and Jinghua to Ban Pi, how about that?"
Luo yang thought this condition would be acceptable to Lord Bao.
However, Lord Bao said, "No way! Tonight you must hand them over to Ban Pi! Contact him by phone, no need to et!"
