86: The head of the Hai family cut off the legs of his three sons
"Take me to your Hai Family!"
Yu Xiu glanced at the dead young man, then looked up at the middle-aged man and said.
"Please, sir!"
The middle-aged man no longer dared to be arrogant, having clearly guessed that Yu Xiu and his group were not people the Hai Family could provoke.
Combined with the discussions from people on the street, he finally realized the seriousness of the situation.
Death Warriors!
To possess so many Death Warriors, and for them to be so powerful, even a fool would know that Yu Xiu absolutely could not be provoked.
One must know!
Death Warriors who could reach the Great Grandmaster Realm by overdrawing their potential were definitely Prodigies.
An ordinary Family would absolutely be unwilling to let such Prodigies overdraw their potential prematurely.
Such Prodigies, if they progressed steadily, could potentially become Martial Venerables in the future, or even beyond Martial Venerables.
Once their potential was overdrawn, they would be stuck in that Realm for life, unable to advance an inch.
Therefore, an ordinary Family would absolutely not have such courage; only a Great Family would.
If he knew that the Two Hundred Death Warriors behind Yu Xiu were all Great Grandmasters, then Fourth Master Hai would only become more terrified.
Moreover, he only guessed that the Death Warrior who attacked earlier was stronger than him, possibly a Martial Venerable expert.
If he knew that the person was not only a Martial Venerable Death Warrior, but also that Yu Xiu had four other Martial Venerable Death Warriors behind him, he would probably be scared into paralysis.
"Please come in, sir!"
Soon after, Fourth Master Hai led Yu Xiu to the center of Qiusuo Town, to a manor enclosed by stone brick walls.
It was called a manor, but it was only large in area; its decorations were not as luxurious as a typical manor.
However, in this western Qiusuo Town, the Hai Family's residence was already considered a mansion.
Four-meter-high walls, paths paved with gravel, and even surrounding flowers, plants, and an artificial lake.
In this barren western region, it was indeed a huge expenditure.
"Fourth Master!"
Meeting a Hai Family guard at the entrance, Fourth Master Hai quickly said, "Go quickly and inform my father and the others to come out and welcome the distinguished guests."
Fourth Master Hai was now completely sober.
He couldn't discern their strength, which clearly meant they were of a higher Realm than him.
Now that it was confirmed these people were Death Warriors, he no longer dared to look down on them based on age.
Furthermore, Yu Xiu had Old Master Deng by his side, and Fourth Master Hai guessed that the other party's strength was definitely stronger than his father's.
...
At the Hai Family residence, in a courtyard, a guard rushed over to report Fourth Master Hai's words.
This immediately made him frown deeply.
"Didn't Fourth Master go to deal with those unruly people who refused to pay the entrance fee?"
"Why is he suddenly sending such a message now?"
The Hai Family Head, who looked to be in his seventies, asked with a puzzled expression to the middle-aged man beside him.
"Although Fourth Master acts impulsively, he would never send such a message without reason."
"It's clear that these newcomers are not simple; perhaps even the Hai Family cannot afford to provoke them."
Thinking of this, the Hai Family Head immediately stood up and said, "Follow me to welcome them."
"Father, is it really that serious?"
"Qiusuo Town is our territory; even those Great Family Young Masters who came before had to be polite to us."
"Exactly. I guess these people are here for nothing more than the Qiusuo Realm."
"There's no need to bother with them."
"Shut up!" the Hai Family Head reprimanded, "The reason our Hai Family has been able to reside in Qiusuo Town for so many years and remain safe is primarily because I, your father, handle matters smoothly, am pragmatic, and never act arrogantly."
"You must know that this western region is full of hidden Dragons and crouching tigers, and the hidden forces of those Secret Realm Cities are extremely terrifying."
"If those people wanted to destroy the Hai Family, they would only need to lift a finger; destroying our Hai Family would be easier than crushing an ant."
"I warn you, be honest later. If you offend the distinguished guests, don't blame me for disregarding our father-son relationship."
"Follow me to welcome them!"
As the Hai Family Head finished speaking, he immediately walked out of the courtyard and headed towards the front yard.
His three sons, however, who followed behind him, still had disdainful expressions on their faces.
Clearly, they hadn't taken their father's words to heart.
"Sir, those are my father and my three elder brothers."
Fourth Master Hai saw his father walking quickly from a distance and immediately explained respectfully.
Yu Xiu nodded, and as he looked towards the Hai Family Head, the Hai Family Head also looked over.
He was a Three-Star Martial Venerable expert.
Neither his insight nor his experience could be compared to Fourth Master Hai's.
When he saw the Two Hundred Death Warriors behind Yu Xiu, his heart was immediately greatly shocked.
He instinctively gasped.
Because he had already seen that the strength of these Death Warriors was all Nine-Star Grandmasters.
Moreover, there were even a few Auras among them that were not inferior to his own.
Especially Yu Xiu!
He actually felt a sense of crisis.
So young?
Presumed to be a Martial Venerable expert.
And not a Death Warrior.
The Hai Family Head already had a preliminary guess in his mind: the Family behind Yu Xiu was probably terrifyingly powerful, beyond his social stratum.
Otherwise, an ordinary Family would absolutely not have the resources to cultivate someone of Yu Xiu's age into a Martial Venerable expert.
"Hai Dongqing of the Hai Family greets Young Master."
The Hai Family Head came before Yu Xiu and immediately greeted him respectfully.
As for his three sons behind him, although they disdained Yu Xiu, they did not dare to disobey their father's wishes.
They also greeted him casually.
Boom!
The attitude of the Hai Family Third Son was also seen by Old Master Deng.
He narrowed his eyes, and his entire Aura erupted at that moment.
At the same time.
Qingshan and the others behind him also unleashed their Auras at this moment.
Although the Two Hundred Death Warriors did not do so, they simply stood there quietly, yet no one dared to ignore them.
Seeing this situation!
Not only did the Hai Family Head's expression change drastically, revealing a look of horror.
Fourth Master Hai suddenly knelt on the ground, kowtowing to Yu Xiu, saying, "Please forgive me, sir. I apologize on behalf of my three elder brothers, and I hope you, sir, can be magnanimous."
Seeing his Fourth Master's actions, the Hai Family Head also immediately reacted.
He backhanded his three sons, knocking them to the ground, their heads bleeding profusely.
At this moment.
The Hai Family Third Son was dumbfounded.
They never expected their father to suddenly strike so heavily.
And their Fourth Brother was actually so scared that he knelt on the spot, kowtowing in apology.
"Young Master, please calm your anger!"
"It's all my fault for not properly raising my sons."
Yu Xiu listened silently, without speaking a word.
But this attitude alone made the Hai Family Head's cold sweat pour down, his heart in a panic.
The atmosphere on the scene became increasingly oppressive; one could vaguely hear the sound of heartbeats.
After a long while!
Yu Xiu suddenly smiled faintly and said, "Hai Family Head, there's no need for such ceremony. Since it's a matter of not properly raising your sons, just breaking two legs to teach them a lesson is enough; there's no need to make a big fuss."
The Hai Family Head nodded repeatedly.
Then, with a cold face, he turned around, raised his foot, and forcefully broke his three sons' legs.
He acted with great decisiveness.
Regarding this.
Yu Xiu no longer dwelled on it, but instead said, "I came to the Hai Family this time because I have some questions for the Hai Family Head."
"Young Master and your group have traveled a long and arduous journey. I will immediately arrange a banquet. At that time, whatever Young Master wishes to ask, I will tell you everything I know."
Yu Xiu nodded and said, "Very well!"
Indeed, having rushed all the way from the 7th Secret Realm City, although they hadn't suffered hardships and the food prepared by the Huangquan Tower Manager was abundant, it was ultimately not as palatable as home-cooked meals.
