In the world of martial arts, grind your skill level to become a saint.

After arranging all this, Su Hao sat in the front hall, drinking tea and waiting.

However, before long, hurried footsteps came from behind.

Just then, Zhou Zhengtang strode over, and when he saw Su Hao leisurely drinking tea, his eyes widened in surprise!

"Damn it! You're getting worse and worse, letting your buddy say he's in big trouble?"

Zhou Zhengtang ran over, snatched the teapot from Su Hao's hand, and poured himself a cup as well. "Looking at you, you don't seem to be in any big trouble at all!"

Zhou Zhengtang rolled his eyes, picked up the teacup, and drank it all in one gulp!

"Hehe. Sorry, Brother Zhou, for interrupting your time alone. But it's urgent, and I have something important to tell you. You should think it over carefully, is that right..."

Su Hao smiled slightly, then put down the teacup in his hand. His tone became somewhat solemn, and his smile faded.

"What's going on? Why are you making such a fuss?"

Zhou Zhengtang looked at Su Hao with some suspicion.

Whenever the other person shows this expression, it's usually not a good thing, nor is it a trivial matter.

Without further ado, Su Hao told Zhou Zhengtang what he had heard at the blacksmith shop that day about the Zhou and Ren families in Qingzhi Valley.

"Brother Su, you're saying... this news was given to you by the Rice Gang?"

Zhou Zhengtang looked at Su Hao with some doubt.

I never expected that Su Hao would have some connection with the Rice Gang.

"Yes! However, the other party did not tell you this news personally, which must be because they have some concerns, so I cannot reveal his name..." Su Hao nodded and said.

"Brother Zhou, how true do you think this news is?"

Su Hao asked again.

Although he often had access to information, he always felt that Yang Lu had no reason to lie to him.

"I'm not sure either, but this isn't the first time Qingzhi Valley has been seen. The reason we want to take this place is because the valley is rich in a precious medicinal herb called Qinglingzhi. This herb seems to be effective against the epidemic that has been spreading around Yanshan City recently. Logically speaking, such a small amount of value shouldn't attract the covetousness of major forces..."

Zhou Zhengtang was also making uncertain guesses.

His previous analysis was basically based on the current situation.

Moreover, without the support of pharmacological knowledge, ordinary people would not find it very useful even if they obtained Ganoderma lucidum, let alone use it to deal with epidemics.

Therefore, in Yanshan City, the number of forces capable of using the Green Lingzhi to develop medicinal materials, and the major forces that could threaten the combined forces of the Zhou and Ren families, quickly shrank.

Su Hao nodded upon hearing this.

"In short, Zhou Ge and the others, be careful. Remember what that person said: get out in time and cut your losses. It should be in time, but of course... that still requires your judgment."

Su Hao then added.

He had no ability to get involved in the Zhou family's affairs, nor was it his place to interfere.

Being able to deliver the message now is enough to fulfill my duty to the best of my ability.

"Yes! Thank you for the news, Brother Zhou. I will discuss this with my father later!"

Zhou Zhengtang nodded, a smile returning to his face.

Although the news Su Hao brought felt very urgent, after some thought, I felt that the possibility of that situation was very low.

However, he remained vigilant and decided to report the matter to his father later.

My father has a wider and more extensive network of connections, so he should be able to find out some information.

"Oh, Brother Zhou, I'd also like to ask you about the Lin family in Ishibashi-cho. Do you know anything about them?"

Su Hao then steered the conversation toward the Lin family.

This is one of the reasons he came here.

"The Lin family?"

Zhou Zhengtang was taken aback. "Could it be that Brother Zhou has some grudge against them?"

"After a minor incident, I wanted to ask about the strength of their guard."

Su Hao didn't hide anything and immediately admitted his past grievances with the Lin family.

Moreover, they explained the whole story clearly.

Zhou Zhengtang, after hearing the whole story, looked at Su Hao with a strange expression.

"You mean, Lin Hong, along with his two bodyguards in tin mirrors, were all taken by you alone...?"

Zhou Zhengtang crossed his hands in front of him, making an X shape.

"Well! There might have been an element of luck involved, but in the end, they were indeed forced to leave."

Su Hao nodded.

"Tsk tsk... I remember you broke through not long ago, right?"

When Zhou Zhengtang heard Su Hao confirm it, he also felt something was wrong.

He knew that Su Hao was quite capable, skilled in both literature and martial arts, but he never imagined that this guy, who had only broken through less than half a month ago, could now fight three people at once.

And there were three tin-glasses?

He knew Lin Hong's strength. Although he had reached the Iron Skin Mirror realm, it was only through the use of many supplements and drugs that he had achieved it. To be honest, his strength was somewhat of a sham.

Even a slightly stronger martial artist with ten leather mirrors could probably exchange a few blows with him.

But what's different is that the other party also called two bodyguards with iron-plated mirrors, which makes things different.

It's important to know that those who become guards for these wealthy families are selected through a rigorous process.

If you don't have any skills, no one will even look at you. These wealthy families are so shrewd that no one is willing to spend a lot of money every year to support a good-for-nothing.

So if those two guards in the iron-glasses suit weren't useless, yet they were still forced to leave by Su Hao, then what is Su Hao's strength now?

"Brother, how many blood vortexes have you condensed on your body now?"

Although Zhou Zhengtang knew it was abrupt to ask this question, he couldn't help but inquire about Su Hao's situation.

If the opponent truly relied on their own abilities to fight three opponents at once, and even knocked one of them unconscious, then...

Then even Tang Huang can't compare to the other party's talent!

"I?"

Su Hao was taken aback, then laughed. "I haven't even condensed a single one. I only recently broke through, where would I get a blood vortex?"

After Su Hao finished speaking, he felt that his words did not match his battle record, so he added: "Actually, those three guys were all good-for-nothings. I just went all out, and my fist was only slightly sore when they got scared and let me punch Lin Hong."

Do I look like an idiot to you?

Zhou Zhengtang shook his head, deeply impressed by Su Hao's ability to spout nonsense anytime, anywhere.

"But you offended Lin Hong and even knocked him unconscious yourself. Knowing Lin Hong's character, he will definitely not let this go so easily..."

Zhou Zhengtang rubbed his chin, and soon an idea came to him. "How about this, I will send someone to the Lin family to explain the situation to Master Lin. Although Lin Hong is a good-for-nothing playboy, Master Lin has always been easy to talk to. He has his own decision on this matter."

Moreover, you are now a disciple favored by Master Liu, so they wouldn't dare to touch you casually. If I inform Master Liu of your feat of fighting three opponents single-handedly, their negotiations will likely proceed more smoothly! Master Liu will probably even personally participate in the negotiations!

Given Liu's status, there shouldn't be any major problems at that time.
