My Brilliant CEO Wife

Chapter 1052 - 1055: The Price of Going Back on One's Word

"Forget it. If this were in the past, I might have thought a Fifth Grade was a master, but now... I can't even protect myself. However, this makes me even more determined to leave Dragon Scale and follow Yun Hao in battle!"The expression on Black Tortoise's face darkened slightly. Compared to the initial excitement, there was now a trace of gloominess!

Hearing Black Tortoise's words, White Tiger also let out a heavy sigh. Indeed, in front of a monster like Yun Hao, not to mention a Fifth Grade Martial Artist, even a Sixth Grade could be wiped out with just a wave of the hand!

White Tiger and Black Tortoise instinctively glanced at A-Jiao over there, their expressions rekindling with fighting spirit once again!

A long time ago, the two had already sensed A-Jiao's identity, but Tang Rou had warned them to pretend they didn't know. Since A-Jiao had chosen a new life, let her live it!

A-Jiao's previous strength couldn't even be compared to theirs, but now? They've long since been left far behind, and they even suspect that Tang Rou might not be A-Jiao's match anymore!

Bang!

Just as the two were lost in thought, a dull sound rang out, and they quickly focused their eyes.

They saw Yun Hao and Situ Lei's trembling figures finally separate, each taking several steps back before stabilizing themselves!

Compared to Yun Hao's current expressionless face, Situ Lei looked somewhat disheveled. His once neat attire was now riddled with holes, and blood trickled from the corner of his mouth!

It was very clear that in this brief but intense exchange, Situ Lei was slightly weaker than Yun Hao!

Wow!

The audience was in an uproar. Not only White Tiger and Black Tortoise saw this, but everyone with eyes in the venue also saw that Situ Lei, the ancestor of the Situ Family, was at a disadvantage in a fight with Yun Hao?

This... this was indeed beyond their expectations!

Especially Yang Kainan, who was responsible for binding Chu Tian, was so frightened that his face turned ashen, his eyes wide open!

How could Yun Hao be so strong? If Situ Lei fell into a disadvantage, doesn't that mean Yun Hao would come after him first if Situ Lei were defeated?

Though he was one of the four young masters of Beijing, accustomed to arrogance, he felt that compared to Yun Hao at this moment, he was nothing more than an ant!

No, there's the ancestor!

Thinking of this, Yang Kainan hurriedly turned to look at Yang Ye, seeing Yang Ye sitting calmly and serenely without any expression of worry, Yang Kainan's panic gradually subsided!

The ancestor's insight must be superior to his, and the ancestor's calmness indicated there wasn't any danger to life.

Besides, the ancestor returned from the Upper Realm, his strength must certainly surpass Situ Lei's!

No matter how shocked others were, no one was more affected than Situ Lei himself!

In the fight with Yun Hao just now, he used all his strength, but still got suppressed by Yun Hao, even sustaining internal injuries, which was something he couldn't possibly have imagined.

After all, the last time they met, Yun Hao had needed Bai Lang to come to his rescue. How much time had passed? How could his strength have increased so rapidly?

Could it be... last time with the Situ Family, Yun Hao didn't use his full strength?

Yes, it must be, otherwise, there's no reasonable explanation!

"Kid, just now this old man didn't use full strength, which is why you got a slight advantage. Everyone knows I'm best with the longsword, so, out of respect for you, I've decided to bring out my treasure sword and fight you with all my might!"

Situ Lei, after a quick thought, decided to draw his weapon. Though doing so contradicted his earlier words, essentially slapping his own face, compared to face, life was more important!

As long as he was the final victor, who would dare to say he was inconsistent?

Listening to Situ Lei's sanctimonious words, Yun Hao couldn't help but let out a mocking laugh, shaking his head in mirth, "Is the Situ Family always this shameless? If so, once you're dead, the Situ Family will become my Asura's slaves, as the price for you, the ancestor of the Situ Family, going back on your word!"

Once you're dead, the Situ Family becomes my slaves?

Boom!

Everyone was shocked to the core. This Yun Hao... such arrogant words, daring to enslave the entire Situ Family!

It should be known that the Situ Family is even more dominant than the Yang Family, akin to a colossal overlord in all of Huaxia. How could such a family be enslaved at someone's whim?

And they also heard Yun Hao boldly claim he'd kill Situ Lei!

Arrogance!

Tyranny!

Such were everyone's true thoughts about Yun Hao at this moment.

Even the Yang Family members were bewildered, wanting to cheer but finding themselves unable to voice the words!

"Arrogant! Today I'll show you what it means to face the Slaughter Sword Demon!" As Situ Lei spoke, a treasure sword emitting a chilling gleam appeared in his hand!

Upon its appearance, the sword exuded a dense killing intent, so overwhelming it felt like an unprecedented oppression!

Especially to the Yang Family members without cultivation or with weak cultivation, they couldn't help but step back, trying to lessen the pressure emanating from the treasure sword.

Slaughter Sword Demon?

Hearing this from Situ Lei, White Tiger and Black Tortoise were taken aback; this was a legendary figure from the last century!

If not for records in the Dragon Scale database, even they wouldn't have known.

Last century, in the international assassin realm, there was an exceptionally fierce individual, who, with a single sword, shattered the European assassin alliance and eradicated dozens to hundreds of mercenary corps on the African Continent, each with at least five hundred members!

The first person in the assassin realm to complete an SSS Level mission was this Slaughter Sword Demon, who supposedly killed without caring for the price, only their mood!

Numerous organizations sent experts to kill the Slaughter Sword Demon, but none ever returned alive, all perishing at their hands.

The last international news about the Slaughter Sword Demon was twenty years ago, in Huaxia, where they supposedly faced an unknown opponent, with the outcome remaining a mystery!

Since then, the legend of the Slaughter Sword Demon disappeared from the world!

Hence, many speculated that in that duel, the Slaughter Sword Demon was killed, or that both fighters perished together!
