"Hahaha, what do you have to say now, Third Master Huang?"
Hou Tianbao was so pleased he almost pounded his chest and stamped his feet in delight.
Seeing his smug look, Xia Ruqing could only think about slapping him across the face. But, with the Master present, it wouldn't be proper for her to act rashly.
Zhao Junyao rubbed his nose, observing Hou Tianbao's antics with the amused gaze one reserves for a clown. When Hou Tianbao saw Zhao Junyao remain silent, he thought Zhao Junyao was afraid and approached him.
With a lecherous glint in his eyes, he ogled Xia Ruqing. "This girl... truly exquisite, a true gem of Jiangnan!"
With that, he reached out to touch her.
Just then, Zhao Junyao's hand shot out with lightning speed.
A CRACK echoed—the sound of bone and joint.
A scream like a stuck pig followed immediately.
"AH!!... AH!" The cries resonated through the air, lingering for a long time.
