C1578 Shock
At first, when Zhou Hao stood out, many people were unsatisfied with him. After all, it was already a bit against the rules for an outsider like him to interfere in the internal affairs of Devil Cult.
It was as Zhou Hao had said, when an elder stood up and clamored, they did not speak. They all chose to not fight against the Third Martial Uncle for their own benefits, and looked at the situation from one side;
Even though the current Devil Cult was not as great as it used to be, those rules and regulations had long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. No matter what, they were still Devil Cult disciples, and now that Devil Cult Elders had rebelled, if they did not say a word, they would always feel guilty in their hearts.
This Zhou Hao was indeed not an ordinary person, but he did not take it to heart. After all, this was not a business negotiation, but a change of sect heads. What he needed was not a mouth of words, but a strong fighting force.
He knew that Zhou Hao was a Stock God of Hong Kong, and also a wealthy merchant of the continent, even to the extent of having an ambiguous relationship with the Central Committee. It was impossible for him to take care of Zhou Hao, or else, even if he really took the position of Sect Leader, or escaped today, Zhou Hao's faction would pressure him and he would not be able to stand up for them in China, much less in Macau.
Thinking about that, the Third Martial Uncle turned to Zhou Hao and said solemnly: "Mr. Zhou Hao, right now, it is just the internal affairs of our Devil Cult, I am grateful that you helped us out with the crisis of our Devil Cult, but right now, we have to solve our internal problems, I hope that you can watch from the side and do not interfere."
Zhou Hao smiled, and very casually looked around, then looked towards the Third Martial Uncle and said: "Third Martial Uncle, logically speaking, I should not interfere with your internal problems, but I am Xiao Zhao's guest, and can be considered her friend. Since you are making things difficult for her master, I might be able to ask about it."
Third Martial Uncle was thinking that this brat really wanted Xiao Zhao's beauty, or else he wouldn't have forced himself to come forward today. After muttering to himself for a moment, he said, "Mr. Zhou Hao, according to what you said, do you really have to intervene in today's matter?"
"Of course, since I have stood out, I must intervene in this matter. Since you two do not want to interfere, I can only fight on the side of fairness. Let's not talk about the matter between you and He Hongsen, about your disrespect for the Sect Leader, based on my understanding of Devil Cult, I should be able to cure your crimes." Zhou Hao nodded.
Although Zhou Hao was a little unreasonable, according to the Devil Cult Rules, the Sect Leader was the biggest existence in the sect, and the disrespect he had towards his senior sister was enough for him to be convicted. It was just that the sect master's faction was no longer that powerful, otherwise, he wouldn't dare act in such a way.
It was not only him, but the rest of the people were also muttering to themselves, whether or not this Zhou Hao was just an idiot. Although they knew that all of this was against the rules, the current Sect Leader was not strong enough, so it was reasonable for him to be looked down upon. Furthermore, Zhou Hao was an outsider, so it did not seem like he had any authority to say it.
Zhou Hao did not think that he had said too much, and continued to speak: "Third Martial Uncle, not only are you, the two Protectors are also the same. As the protectors, although I do not know how much authority you have, but I believe that the intention of the Protector is to ensure that the Sect Leader's orders are carried out smoothly.
No one would have thought that Zhou Hao would suddenly change the topic and change the topic to the two protectors. Third Martial Uncle couldn't help but be stunned, thinking that this brat must have gone crazy, the two protectors were both quasi-Supreme Expert, and even though the Sect Leader wanted to make them pay, Zhou Hao took the initiative to provoke them.
Only the Master of Devil Cult and Xiao Zhao knew that, whether it was the Elder Master Uncle or the Third Martial Uncle, the main reason why they were so arrogant was because they had the backing of two protectors. If there was no support from behind the scenes, the two forces would have to be wary of the Sect Leader's existence.
Now that they heard Zhou Hao's words, Left Protector was the first to speak: "Mr Zhou is cautious, our duty as Protectors is to protect and continue to protect the Holy Sect, and not a tool for Sect Leader to bully and suppress our people."
As soon as he said those words, Master of Devil Cult's face became ugly. His words denied the Sect Leader's previous order, and he did not conceal his relationship with the Third Martial Uncle at all. Since it was already an open secret, then he might as well say everything.
Although the Right Protector didn't say anything, he was silent, giving off the feeling that he was following the lead of the Left Protector. There was no need to ask to know what he meant by that.
Zhou Hao chuckled, as if he had already anticipated this, he quickly said: "Since that's the case, based on your strengths and statuses, not only can't you guarantee that the Sect Leader's powers will be carried out, you even have to reverse the situation. Then, I want to ask, in your Devil Cult, who exactly decides the decision, whether it's the Sect Leader, or the Protector, or perhaps ?" Pausing, he looked at Third Martial Uncle and Third Martial Uncle and asked: "Does elder have the final say?"
After he finished speaking, he subconsciously let go of his aura. Although he didn't use any inner force, his long-term magical strength and killing intent also gave everyone a formless pressure. Even the four people at the top couldn't bear it.
No one dared to look down on Zhou Hao now, as they suddenly realized that they had never seen him before. Although this young man did not possess the aura of a Martial Arts Master, it was obvious that he was not a merciful and lenient person.
Left Protector said in a deep voice: "Mr. Zhou Hao, we are very grateful that you took action in the face of our Devil Cult's crisis. However, if you continue to spout nonsense, don't blame us for not being courteous, this is a meeting of our Devil Cult, and outsiders can't easily cause trouble."
Zhou Hao laughed heartily and said, "Left Protector, do you think that the words I have spoken stabbed into your heart? It's a little hard to accept." Then he stopped laughing and said in a deep voice, "I really want to know how you are going to be rude to me. Do you want to use force against me? Just like how you won't obey the sect leader's orders."
This time, even if it was anyone else who was watching the show from the Devil Cult, they would not be able to watch it any longer. This young man was indeed not steady enough, he actually relied on his wealth and power, and did not put anyone from Devil Cult in his eyes. The people present were no ordinary people, any one of them could kill him ten times over.
Both Third Martial Uncle and Elder Master Uncle looked at Zhou Hao without speaking, and they too did not know why Zhou Hao was doing this, it was simply courting death. Amongst the Devil Cult, the two protectors had the highest level of martial arts, and it was also because they had been living on the island for a long time and were not very well-informed about the situation outside, they would not be as afraid of Zhou Hao as the two of them.
Zhou Hao glared at the Left Protector, as if he did not know that he had angered the two Protectors, and a cold smile appeared on his face, even though he did not say anything.
Protector Zuo was an expert in the first place, and in the Devil Cult, he was more than ten thousand under one person, but now, he was provoked by such a young man, and in front of so many people at that. If he retreated, not to mention protecting his nephew, he would lose all his face.
"Zhou Hao, you are truly a fearsome junior. It's just that I don't know if you have the guts or not, and whether you really have the qualifications or not. Do you know what our Devil Cult is based off?" The Left Protector's voice was low, and anyone could hear his anger.
However, Zhou Hao seemed to not have heard it, and laughed: "Isn't it just using force? Although your martial arts are quite good, it is only slightly better than these people. They are simply unconventional. Don't think that just because you have a method that is slightly stronger than ordinary people, you are considered to be extraordinary. "
Previously, they thought that Zhou Hao had relied on his status and wealth to be overconfident, and now that everyone saw him, they simply did not know what life and death situation was. They knew that the two protectors' martial arts were not weak, but they said that they were not harmful, could it be that your martial arts are stronger?
Other than Master of Devil Cult and Xiao Zhao, everyone, including Elder Master Uncle and Third Martial Uncle, were looking at Zhou Hao as if sshe were a fool. This brat definitely could not be the Supreme Expert, he could even be counted with one hand by the entire Martial Forest Supreme Expert, and all of them were those old monsters that had cultivated for many years. Even though there were hidden experts present, they did not believe that this person was Zhou Hao, he was simply too young.
Zhou Hao also knew that they definitely did not believe his strength. Today, his goal was to show off his might and not hide his strength, so he laughed out loud. "You still think that I'm spouting nonsense? Since an ordinary person dares to speak like that to you, you can give it a try."1
Crazy! Too arrogant! This was how everyone felt, Zhou Hao was simply provoking them, if Left Protector did not dare to make a move, then it would truly be a loss of face for them, at this time he did not care about Zhou Hao's background, anyway he only wanted to capture Han Geng and kill him, to vent the hatred in his heart.
Protector Zuo was initially standing not far from Master of Devil Cult, and was at least ten meters away from Zhou Hao. Raging flames in his heart, he bent down and attacked downwards, as though the distance between the two of them had disappeared. It was as if Protector Zuo had instantly arrived in front of Zhou Hao.
Let alone facing an ordinary person, even if it was a first-rate expert, they would have to be extremely cautious facing a quasi-pinnacle attack. However, no one saw Zhou Hao's nervousness, nor did they see Master of Devil Cult's worry.
Just when everyone wanted to see how Zhou Hao was dealt with by the Left Protector, Zhou Hao's body suddenly moved. He used a slow motion that everyone could see, as if he was walking normally, and suddenly moved backwards. With the lift of his right foot, anyone familiar with football would know that it was a soccer move.
It was just that, in regards to such child's play, no one would think that it was child's play if it were to happen. The Left Protector, whose body was at the peak, was not touched by Zhou Hao's body, but instead was kicked in the chest by Zhou Hao, directly throwing him more than ten meters away.
Everyone could clearly see all of Zhou Hao's movements, it was as if a single person could dodge his kick, and yet, the person that flew out was the Left Protector. This kind of strange feeling made people feel uncomfortable, and some people even suspected that Zhou Hao had used some kind of evil technique.
Fortunately, Zhou Hao didn't plan to kill Left Protector in public and didn't use too much inner energy. His goal was to just let Left Protector fly out and make him lose face, and even then, Left Protector only recovered for half a day after landing back down.
He was not injured, but this had affected the shock that Zhou Hao had caused. Those spectators, because of Zhou Hao's strange performance, could not understand what was going on at all, but as Left Protector was one of them, they naturally knew what the situation was at that time. As for how powerful Zhou Hao was, he could also understand it best.
He knew that the reason was because he was in the air, but most importantly, he could not dodge it at all. Even if he was not in the air, he could not dodge it, which meant that Zhou Hao's kick was extremely fast.
"Supreme Expert? You are the Supreme Expert. " Protector Zuo was terrified in his heart, and the gaze he used to look at Zhou Hao became respectful as well.
Everyone present at the scene were all people who had cultivated martial arts since childhood. Even though there were only three people who had reached the Left Protector Realm, all the first-rate experts knew that the realm of martial arts cultivators would continue to increase. And the person who knew that the martial arts cultivation was the highest among all the martial arts cultivators, was known as the Supreme Expert.
However, they never would have thought that this youth, Zhou Hao, was actually a Supreme Expert. Other than the Master of Devil Cult who knew about the inside information, everyone was looking at Zhou Hao in disbelief, but everyone knew about Left Protector's identity, and naturally everyone knew about her strength. If he asked about this, no one would doubt him.
Zhou Hao did not display any extraordinary aura, and lightly laughed: "Left Protector does not have bad eyesight, no wonder you can reach the peak of your lifespan, you are indeed a smart person." He then looked around at everyone present and said with certainty: "According to what you have said, I am just a Supreme Expert. Anyone who has any objections to my meddling today, can just come out."
