Chapter Fifty-Four: One Against Thirty

  Days passed, and Leng Xiao Yao gradually integrated into the life of the Western House. However, after that morning's conflict, the two brothers, Leng Mo, surprisingly never came to cause trouble again. This strange phenomenon made Leng Xiao Yao feel puzzled, as if in his impression, these two brothers were not so well-behaved. Was there another conspiracy brewing behind the scenes?

  "Master, you're awake. Come and wash your face." Little Feng pushed open the door to Leng Xiao's room, holding a basin of clear water in his hand.

  "En." Leng Xiao Yao nodded, and after washing his face, he walked out of the room alone, breathing in the clear morning air.

  "Hmm" Leng Xiao Yao saw from afar that in the western courtyard's plaza, Wang Fu's thirty guards were actually practicing drills. Curiosity arose in his heart, and he walked towards the plaza.

  "Hah, hah, hah," Wang Fu's thirty guards were practicing one-on-one drills, coming and going, each covered in sweat.

  Standing quietly at the edge of the square, he gazed at the thirty guards practicing on the square, and couldn't help but shake his head. The combat skills in this space were indeed rotten to the core, all relying on brute force, completely wasting their internal energy.

  Wang Fu actually felt it when Leng Xiao Yao appeared in the square, but he had a habit of not being distracted by other things during his training, so he had today's skills. However, when he saw his young master shaking his head, he suddenly felt that his self-esteem had been severely hit.

  "Why is Master shaking his head?" Wang Fu suddenly asked, and he had already arrived beside Leng Xiao Yao.

  "It's just an empty shell." Leng Xiao Yao responded indifferently.

  Wang Fu and the others heard this sentence from Leng Xiao Yao, each of their faces changed color. Wang Fu was also filled with anger in his heart, but he still suppressed the anger in his heart and said calmly: "Oh! Since Young Master says we are empty shelves, please don't hesitate to teach us how?"

  "Hehe" Leng Xiao Yao smiled and said: "Alright then, I'll show you a few tricks."

  "Thank you, Young Master." Wang Fu's face revealed a cold smile as he gazed at Leng Xiao Yao standing in the center.

  After stretching his body, he extended his fingers and beckoned to the thirty guards in front of him: "Come on, all of you!"

  "Ah!" Wang Fu and the others were taken aback, they had seen arrogance before, but not to this extent. The other guards' eyes all turned to Wang Fu, after all he was their leader, and in front of them was the young master of the Leng family. If they accidentally injured the young master during a test of strength, these guards would be in trouble.

  Leng Xiao Yao saw the expressions of the guards and immediately understood what they were thinking. He smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about anything, let's go up together! If you can hurt me, each of you will be rewarded with 100 gold coins."

  As soon as the words fell, Wang Fu's thirty guards' eyes lit up one after another. One hundred gold coins! This is enough for a common family on the Maya continent to live a rich life for ten years! (Note: The currencies used on the Maya continent are: purple crystal coin, gold coin, silver coin, and copper coin. One purple crystal coin is equal to one hundred gold coins, one gold coin is equal to one hundred silver coins, and so on.)

  "Is this true, young master?" Wang Fu's face showed a look of surprise as he asked.

  "Are you afraid I'll say something wrong?" asked Leng Xiao Yao with a smile.

  Wang Fu heard what Leng Xiao Yao said, his face turned serious and he clasped his fists: "Since the young master has made up his mind, then we will obey!"

  "Come on!" Lan Xiang Yao crooked his finger.

  "Be careful, don't hurt the young master." Wang Fu instructed his companions with concern.

  "Yes, Wang Tou." The other twenty-nine guards responded in unison, each of them with a joyful expression on their face, as if they had already gotten the one hundred gold coins.

  "Laugh now! Laugh now! Let's see if you can cry later!" Leng Xiao Yao said with a cold smile in his heart.

  "Up."

  One of the guards took the lead and swung his fist towards where Leng Xiang was standing, creating a whooshing sound as the air vibrated from the force.

  "Too bad." Leng Xiangyao saw more than a dozen flaws in the guard's attack as he struck, and his figure flashed by.

  With a "thud", the attack sent Coldly Arrogant's guard tumbling to the ground, clutching his stomach and groaning.

  "Ah!" Wang Fu's eyes lit up as he witnessed this scene, his originally smiling face suddenly turning solemn. To think that the guard who had attacked first was a high-level warrior, one rank higher than himself, an intermediate swordsman. If it were him, he wouldn't have been able to take down such an opponent with just one move.

  "Come." Lan Xiang continued to beckon to Wang Fu and others with a wave of his hand.

  Wang Fu's face turned solemn as he instructed, "Everyone get on, be careful."

  "Up!" Wang Fu and the other twenty-nine people rushed towards Leng Xiao Yao together, this time none of them were careless, every single guard had their nerves stretched tight, they didn't want to be knocked down by Young Master with just one move, how embarrassing would that be!

  "Bang! Bang! Bang!" The sound of impact rang out, and with each impact, one of Wang Fu's guards fell to the ground, losing their combat effectiveness. Meanwhile, Leng Xiao Yao was like a fish in water, moving freely among the many guards, occasionally extending his fist to punch someone.

  Three minutes later, thirty figures lay on the ground, moaning incessantly.

  "Not interesting, too weak." Lan Xiang Yao muttered to himself, then turned around with a smile on his face and walked towards the direction of the wing room, humming an unknown tune along the way.

  Thirty guards lying on the ground looked at the departing figure of Leng Xiao Yao, and their eyes had changed from initial disdain to respect. This is the reason why the strong are respected.

  "Wang Tou, didn't you say that our young master used to be...?" a guard asked Wang Fu tentatively.

  A sharp glint flashed in Wang Fu's eyes, and then he solemnly said to his companions: "These shouldn't be things we know about, so don't ask so many questions. Just do your job well. Look at you guys, I always tell them to train more, now look what happened! You've lost face!"

  "King's head, it seems like you were also beaten to the ground by Young Master!" A guard whispered after being scolded by Wang Fu.

  "What are you muttering about, you little stinker?" Wang Fu stretched out his finger and tapped the guard's skull, then shouted to the surrounding partners who had stood up: "What are you looking at? Today we'll increase the training intensity by a factor of two!"

  "No! King's head!" The guards cried out in unison.

  "Let's get started! Anyone who can't keep up with me today, be careful I'll make you practice alone. Move!" Wang Fu shouted loudly and took the lead in running.

  Just after lunch, Wang Fu knocked on the door and walked to Leng Xiao Yao's side, saying: "Young Master, I don't know what you called me for?"

  "It's Wang Dage! Come, sit down." Leng Xiao Yao smiled and extended his hand in a gesture for him to take a seat.

  Wang Fu saw Leng Xiao Yao's actions and his face revealed a surprised and flattered expression. He hastily waved his hand, saying: "I'm not worthy, I'm not worthy, it's fine for me to stand and speak, if there's anything, please instruct me, sir, I'll do my best."

  Leng Xiao Yao saw Wang Fu's expression and knew that if he was any more polite, he might scare him off. So he spoke up: "It's like this, Big Brother Wang, I want you to go out of the mansion this afternoon to help me buy some things."

  "What can I do for you, sir?"

  Leng Xiao Yao picked up a white paper full of writing from the desktop and handed it to Wang Fu Dao: "The things I want are all on this list, buy them back according to the list."

  "Yes, young master." Wang Fu took over the paper handed by Leng Xiao and asked: "Is there anything else you'd like to instruct?"

  Leng Xiao Yao thought for a moment if he had forgotten anything, and after recalling, he found that he hadn't forgotten anything. He then waved his hand and said, "That's all, you go buy these things back first."

  "Yes, young master, I'll withdraw first." Wang Fu bowed and then exited the room.

  Thank you for the rewards from Huo Yan and Wu Li Fei Hua, I still need recommendations, collections and evaluation votes.
