Omnipotent Husband System

Salt Wind City was not like the usual. There were many people who were being captured and then sent into interrogation to find out who killed the Young Master of the City Palace. The City Lord was so angry these past few days, that even if someone was passing by, they would be dripping with cold sweat.

Liang Ding loved his son, as he only had one child. His wife had been distressed and dispelled her cultivation in grief. The City Palace was shrouded in gloom. Meanwhile, in the city everyone was laying low. The brothels had been closed down and even the restaurants were shut down for fifteen days.

Hao Ren did not mind, he was using this time to cultivate. In the past week, Yan had been busy carving complex symbols on the walls of the courtyard. Hao Ren did not ask her what she wanted to do, he seemed to have become a boulder, sitting under the tree with cultivation being his only task.

In the past few days he woke up only three times. Those three times happened to be the moments when he was taking to Han Lingshi. However, last night when they were talking, Han Lingshi apologized to him saying that she would be entering seclusion.

This was a good thing for Hao Ren, he could also dedicate his time into cultivation whole heartedly. He opened his eyes as he sensed the heat coming from the east. In the past week, he has been absorbing the strong Yang energy regularly and his vigor was improving at a visible pace.

Hao Ren circulated his cultivation technique, but suddenly the yang energy was attributed by Wan, who was sitting cross legged on the beam of the roof. Hao Ren frowned and he looked in the direction of the man. These past few days, this man had been cultivating and absorbing the Yang Energy as well, but today, he absorbed all of it.

Yan noticed this and frowned, she wanted to say something when she saw Hao Ren stand up. His body emitted crackling sounds. The young man flexed his neck and said, "I have come to understand that one needs to fight with the people who are in the same camp for resources."

His voice was calm, but the coldness was evident. Yan was surprised, she did not expect that the Young Master had such a temper. This was obviously heard by Wan, and he raised a brow before he jumped down in the courtyard and said, "What you said is true, one does need to fight for the resources, after all, there is only so much of them."

Hao Ren nodded and said, "Wan, how about a fight? The winner call dibs on the Yang Energy."

As soon as he said this, Wan froze, Yan was shocked, and she wanted to dissuade Hao Ren, but the Nascent Realm man erupted in laughter. He was so loud that it was disrespectful and insulting to Hao Ren.

Yan glared at Wan, and the latter acted as if he did not see and said, "Young Master, you are too young and inexperienced to understand the depth of a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator's capabilities. Please be mindful of the realm gap."

Hao Ren replied, "It is not me that is out of his depth here, Wan. I call you Wan, because I think of you like that, a man with a shallow character who does not beget respect. You are superficial, and more than that, do you really think someone as pretentious as you can win over my sister? Pathetic."

He did not hold back when it came to showing the people there places. Wan was stunned, he clenched his fist and Hao Ren said, "You are strong because you were born early, and if I am not wrong, my sister saved you. You think you are worthy of holding the hand that fed you? Hmph, don't joke with yourself."

Wan was shivering in rage, Yan quickly came to stand beside Hao Ren, she was ready to defend the young man if the former attacked him. She said, "Young Master, I will talk to him. Please, let us not escalate this situation."

Hao Ren waved his hand and said, "Senior Yan, I do not like entitled people. These days, you all have been doing your own thing and never did I say anything about it. However, for the last one week, this guy has been eating the food I made, and also snatching the energy that is vital for me. I have tolerated all of it, even the lecherous emotion that I see in his eyes whenever someone mentions Mei.

I thought it was my sister's matter, so she should handle it, and I did not want to trample on his dignity, but watching him these days, I don't think he has any left. So, I would rather settle it fair and square."

Yan could see determination and rage in his calm eyes. She could not understand how, Hao Ren was able to keep his calm even when so much rage was coursing his body. Wan, on the other side, had been gnashing his teeth so hard, that despite being a Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator, a tint of red could be seen leaking from the corner of his lips.

As soon as Hao Ren stopped speaking, Wan vanished from his spot. Yan raised her hand and cast an energy shield around Hao Ren. However, Wan did not attack Hao Ren, instead, he targeted Yan.

The lady was caught off guard. She raised her arms to block the blow, but the impact still sent her flying a few meters.

Hao Ren on the other side, extered strength under his feet, and decisively gave up the protection of the shield. He clenched his fist and appeared next to Wan. The confrontation had become a three-way battle.

The ruckus alerted Reni and Xi who were playing chess inside the house. They also came out and were shocked to see the scene. Hao Ren punched at Wan's head. However, the gap of two realms was was something that could be crossed because of strong intentions. Wan sneered and swung his left arm to deliver a back hand slap at Hao Ren.

He knew that killing this young man would not do him any good, so he was going to teach him a lesson.

Hao Ren could also see an arm lashing out like a whip against him, however, he did not dodge, but shifted the aim of his punch. The two blows collided, and while Hao Ren's charge came to a stop.

Wan was sent retreating for seven steps, with a visibly broken arm. He was shocked by the strong strength Hao Ren had. This much force was enough to kill a person in the golden core realm with just one blow. However, he could tell that the young man had not used his best punch, because he had to change the trajectory of the blow at the last moment.

Hao Ren paused but he had no intention to stop, he dashed one more time, and punched Wan again. The latter did not take it lightly and cast an energy shield around him. Hao Ren waited for the moment when his punch landed on the shield. He saw Wan relax a bit, but then he waved his left hand and cast a flame ring around Wang.

This shocked the audience and the target completely. Yan reacted, "Young Master, what is the meaning of this?"

They did not expect Hao Ren to have such a skill, and they did not expect that he would use it to kill Wan either. They agreed to the fact that this guy had not been at his best behavior, but killing him was not good.

At this moment, a calm and cold voice echoed, "Did you not notice the killing intent Wan had just now?"

The four people froze, they did not expect to hear this voice. Hao Mei appeared in the void and landed beside Hao Ren. The young lady patted her brother on his shoulder and said, "You did good, but you are still lacking, he has a lot of room to flee."

Hao Ren nodded and took back his flames as he said, "I need to advance in order to control the flames better."

Hao Mei nodded and said, "Xi, go with him to the wilderness. His realm is about to advance, protect him."

Xi sighed and replied, "Yes, my lady."

She and Hao Ren left the house.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Wan stood frozen before Hao Mei, as the young lady looked at him with deadpan eyes. Yan gulped from the tension, recalling the battle, she found that Wan did radiate the intention to kill Hao Ren after the first punch but it was just fleeting.

She wanted to say something when Reni's voice echoed in her mind, 'Don't, that would be for the best. Miss is angry."

Yan shook off her compassionate emotions and noticed a subtle white mist around Hao Mei. The lady said, "When I sent you here, I gave you one task, that was to look after my brother. However, there was another reason I sent you here."

The trio all had different expressions, Reni was curious, Yan was surprised and Wan lost all blood from his face. Hao Mei said, "You have been in the Glimmer City for ten years, and you have killed one hundred and twenty prostitutes. All of them tortured and raped on the full moon nights. One for every month. Did you think that no one will notice? Or that no one will care about them?

One of the people you killed was not a prostitute, but the bronze mask who was there on my instructions. She sent me a transmission before her death and told me about your occult inclination."

The women were surprised, and Wan suddenly turned around to leap in the void, trying to flee. However, his held was pressed upon by Hao Mei. The young lady said, "Hmmm, your death would be easy to justify now."

Wan froze into an ice sculpture at a visible pace. Then Hao Mei waved her hand and the sculpture scattered on the side like fine powder. She looked at Yan, and said, "Come here, Xiao Yan."

The latter was scared but moved forward.

...

Xi led Hao Ren to the wilderness, and said, "Young master, you can cultivate here, I will maintain the order for you."

Hao Ren thanked her and sat down before the system pinged in his mind, *DING: Explore more adventures at empire
