Chapter 347: Chapter 345 Hero Saves the Beauty
Xiao Jintian knew he hadn’t done anything wrong, other than not killing Qin Hao, and imdiately a sense of disdain rose in his heart.
His family’s ancestor seed to be getting more timid and fearful of things as he got older. The Qin Family had been destroyed on a whim, so what was there to worry about with a re Qin Hao, an abandoned son of the Qin Family?
The Xiao Family was now a dominant presence in the entire Provincial Governnt, would they fear a re Qin Hao?
However, no matter how disrespectful Xiao Jintian felt in his heart, he dared not show any of it in front of Xiao Lingtian. He once again bowed deeply, filled with trepidation, and then said:
“I’m sorry, Ancestor, it was my incompetence, please punish !”
Xiao Lingtian snorted from his nose and then said, “Hmph! What use is there in punishing you now?”
“Since what’s done is done, from now on, go all out for
and resolve Qin Hao quickly. Do you understand?”
“Yes, I will arrange it imdiately.”
After Xiao Jintian respectfully finished his words, Xiao Lingtian waved his hand, signaling them to leave for now.
The study returned to its quiet state, and Xiao Lingtian felt even more emotional inside.
Nightmare was pressing in on all fronts, almost sparking a world-shaking battle with Huaxia’s guardians. His Blade Team mbers had been on full alert these past days, only relaxing after they withdrew.
The influence of Qin Hao alone already shook the entire Huaxia.
This made Xiao Lingtian feel a deep dread, and his gaze out the window gradually turned steely.
No matter what, this Qin Hao must not be allowed to remain!

An afternoon passed with Qin Hao recuperating from his injuries.
He had completed an entire course of dicine brewed in the ho of an old man with white hair. The main task now was to ensure he rested quietly every day, allowing the dicine’s effects to be fully absorbed and act on his body.
The injuries on Qin Hao’s body were primarily due to the shock and damage to his internal organs, with his organs facing collapse and failure at the most severe points, caused by him forcing himself to fight repeatedly after getting injured.
After this period of convalescence, his injuries have completely stabilized, but his physical condition remains extrely weak. In this situation that affected his foundation, he can only wait for ti to heal, allowing his body to slowly recover.
As night fell, Qin Hao got up, washed and tidied up a bit, then left the small inn to find sothing to eat.
The area he lived in was an older part of the city, with a variety of street food night markets and street vendors lining up along the streets as soon as night fell, with colorful and intricate displays, overwhelming to the eyes.
Of course, bustling crowds often also an chaos in the shadows. As Qin Hao walked aimlessly down the street, he witnessed no fewer than five cases of habitual thieves pilfering belongings.
These habitual thieves were local thugs, working in gangs to commit cris together. Even if ordinary people wanted to be brave and righteous, they’d only invite endless retaliation from these gangs.
With Qin Hao’s current weakened state, not much different from an ordinary person, he naturally had little interest in getting involved. He turned a corner and suddenly saw a porridge shop sign shining not far ahead.
At this mont, what Qin Hao missed the most was the bowl of hot, fragrant at porridge he drank at the Qin Family. Seeing this porridge shop, a mory instantly surfaced in his mind of Qin Ling gently feeding him a spoonful of porridge while he was bedridden with serious injuries.
The scene seed as if it happened just yesterday, but now, he and Qin Ling would forever be separated by life and death.
He stood there in a daze for a long ti, then quietly muttered to himself:
“Just as well, I’ll go over and have a bowl of porridge.”
He said this and then walked toward the small alley.
The location of the porridge shop was quite secluded, and it had a small storefront. Qin Hao turned inside, finding the alley dark except for the dim light from the porridge shop’s sign.
He frowned lightly and continued forward, but after a few steps, a commotion suddenly erupted not far ahead.
“Kid, don’t ddle in other people’s business!”
“Exactly, Brother Hei Mao fancies this woman, it’s her blessing, you all better scram!”
A gang of thugs ahead was surrounding two n and two won, continually harassing them, and as they spoke, they were also pulling and pawing one of the won.
The three companions at her side wanted to help her, but they were too frightened by the small blades the thugs pulled out to make a move.
At this point, the two groups were at a standoff. Those few people didn’t dare to fight the thugs, nor could they let the girl be bullied by them, so they just stood there dazedly.
And Qin Hao happened to enter the alley right when both sides were at an impasse. When the thugs saw Qin Hao, they imdiately shouted.
“Oh, you’ve got the guts to call for help, let’s see what kind of backup you’ve got!”
Hearing this, Qin Hao couldn’t help but be a bit speechless. He had no interest in ddling in this ss, but the thugs were convinced he was the backup called for the girl, which now made things troubleso.
He gently lifted his head, only now using the alley’s dim lighting to take a closer look.
The group being surrounded consisted of two n and two won. The n were fair-skinned and effeminate, one standing there with a worried expression, and the girl’s appearance was quite ordinary, while the girl getting harassed was facing away from Qin Hao, though from her silhouette, she appeared gentle and kind.
The gang surrounding them totalled seven people, all with colorful hair. One thug had even approached Qin Hao, brandishing a knife arrogantly.
“Hey, I’m talking to you, trying to play hero? Do you even know your own worth? Look at you, weak and frail, I could easily take care of a bunch of cowards like you!”
He arrogantly yelled while waving the knife in front of Qin Hao.
Qin Hao furrowed his brow, swiftly reaching out like lightning to grab the thug’s wrist.
“Children shouldn’t play with knives, it’s dangerous.”
He said, then gently applied force with his hand, causing the thug to cry out in pain and drop his knife with a clatter.
“Oww, it hurts, it hurts!!”
Grimacing with pain, Qin Hao let go of his hand. By then, the rest of the group had also surrounded them with unfriendly expressions.
A wave of weakness surged through Qin Hao’s body, and he sighed softly, smiling wryly inside. It seed there was no avoiding this trouble again.
Had he been in his pri, the thug’s wrist would have been shattered, leaving no chance for him to cry out in pain like this.
But now, he was like a tiger fallen from grace…
Yet, he was by no ans prey for wild dogs!
