Before dawn,
Tang San was already awake.
This was a good habit he had developed.
Moreover, it was because he needed the first ray of purple qi in the morning to cultivate his Purple Demon Eye.
If the timing was right, he could reach that small hill half an hour before the purple qi appeared.
However, just as Tang San walked out of the village, he sensed someone watching him in the dark.
"Who!"
"Come out!"
Tang San's eyes narrowed.
He suddenly looked at a spot behind him.
At this time, the visibility was very dim.
But for Tang San, who possessed the Purple Demon Eye, it was no problem at all.
"Hehehe, Brother Tang, don't be nervous, it's me!"
Luo Hao said with a chuckle.
"Luo Hao, why is it you!"
Tang San's expression softened considerably when he saw Luo Hao, but his face was filled with extreme speechlessness.
"I want to be the King of the Kids in the village, so of course, I have to defeat you!" Luo Hao declared proudly.
Tang San:
"Alright, alright, I admit you're the King of the Kids, okay? I have urgent business and no time to play with you," Tang San said dismissively, waving his hand.
After all, his true age was already over 30.
He really had nothing in common with a little brat like Luo Hao.
It was just a useless, empty title.
Since he wanted it, he might as well acknowledge his claim.
As long as Luo Hao didn't disturb his cultivation, it was fine.
"Tsk tsk, that won't do~"
"The title of 'King of the Kids' is something I'll earn through battle, not by your mere acknowledgment."
"Aren't you just afraid of a humiliating defeat? There's no one here right now."
"Come on, let's have a duel."
"Even if you lose, no one will laugh at you!" Luo Hao said proudly, with his hands behind his back.
Tang San:
He didn't even know how many times he had been speechless by now.
Why would such a peculiar person appear in a perfectly normal Holy Spirit Village?
"Hehe, I see you go to the mountain to meditate every morning."
"Although I don't know what it's for, it must be very important to you, right?"
"If you don't accept my challenge today, I'll keep blocking you. Let's see what you'll do!" Luo Hao said, acting like he had caught Tang San's weakness and starting to act like a rogue.
Hearing Luo Hao's words, Tang San noticed the sky was getting brighter and felt a sense of urgency.
Purple Demon Eye was currently the only cultivation method where he could see progress.
Every opportunity to cultivate was extremely precious to him.
If he was disturbed by this guy, he might really miss the timing for cultivation.
And looking at Luo Hao's roguish demeanor, it was clear he was determined to get his way.
"Alright, I agree," Tang San's eyes flickered. After a brief consideration, he still chose to agree to Luo Hao's request.
"Since this Luo Hao is so ignorant, teaching him a small lesson and making him retreat in the face of difficulty, Grandpa Jack probably won't blame me," Tang San thought to himself.
"Good!"
"Then if you lose, you'll have to call me boss from now on!" Luo Hao's eyes gleamed brightly, and he said excitedly.
"Fine!"
"If I win, you're never to bother me again!" Tang San declared.
"Naturally."
Luo Hao said this verbally, but inwardly, he was disdainful.
"Damn, if it weren't for the system's mission, who the hell would want to bother you?"
At a grassy area by the village.
"Come on, I'll give you a chance. You can make the first move," Luo Hao provoked Tang San, beckoning with his hand.
"No, I'm afraid I'll hurt you. You go first," Tang San said, with his hands behind his back, acting like a little adult.
He had been in this world for so long that he naturally understood the combat power of humans in this world.
He was just a little brat who hadn't cultivated at all.
It was nothing more than a few street fighting moves.
What kind of ability could he possibly have?
"Alright, you said it!"
"Take this!" Luo Hao shouted, swinging his fist and charging towards Tang San.
The fist quickly arrived in front of Tang San.
"Heh~" Tang San chuckled softly.
Tang San gently extended his hand, preparing to catch Luo Hao's punch and use his momentum to throw him to the ground, making him lose convincingly.
But just as Tang San's hand touched Luo Hao's fist, his pupils sharply contracted.
Because the force transmitted to his hand was simply too great.
"How is this possible?!" Tang San exclaimed.
But by then, it was too late for him to change his move.
"Hehe~" Luo Hao chuckled softly.
Taking advantage of his initial move, he suddenly crashed his body into Tang San.
Tang San felt as if he had been struck by an ancient giant beast.
His own figure seemed so small in the face of such immense power.
"Bang—"
With a dull thud, the two figures collided.
Tang San was directly knocked to the ground by Luo Hao.
Tang San felt as if he had been trampled by some ancient giant beast, and all the bones in his body seemed to be falling apart.
Luo Hao seized this opportunity, gripping Tang San's neck with one hand and pressing him to the ground.
With his other hand, he firmly pinned Tang San's hands behind his back.
Luo Hao knew that Tang San was very cunning, and the hidden sleeves in his hands were even poisoned.
Although he didn't know if Tang San had prepared his sleeve darts, Luo Hao still took precautions, not giving Tang San any chance.
"Hehe, how about it, little brother? Do you surrender?" Luo Hao chuckled.
"No! This is impossible!"
"Who exactly are you?!"
"A child can't possibly have such great strength!" Tang San struggled desperately, veins bulging on his forehead, like a tiger trapped in a cage, letting out an angry roar.
"I am Luo Hao~"
"I am Luo Hao, blessed by the heavens with innate divine strength~"
"If I didn't have some ability, why would I be your boss~" Luo Hao laughed.
"How about it, do you submit?"
"Call me boss, let me hear it~" Luo Hao said with a grin.
"Ah!!!" Tang San struggled for a bit, but ultimately, he was helpless.
Because he realized that Luo Hao was simply a monster.
At the same age, Luo Hao's strength was many times greater than his own, even with his cultivation of Mysterious Heaven Skill.
This almost exceeded his understanding!
Finally, Tang San decided to surrender.
This was his own problem.
"I give up."
Tang San ceased his struggle.
The position he was in offered no chance of turning the tables.
It was also because he had been careless, losing the initiative.
This was what led to his defeat.
"Hehe, alright, from now on, I'm your boss."
Luo Hao released Tang San.
He patted Tang San's shoulder and said with a smile.
"Okay, boss."
Tang San breathed a sigh of relief, then softly called out, 'Boss'.
He was a man who kept his word.
Defeated meant defeated.
Carelessness was no excuse.
And he wasn't someone who couldn't accept a loss.
"By the way, boss, why is your strength so great?" Tang San asked directly.
Being defeated by Luo Hao.
It was just one failure.
This couldn't break his spirit.
More than that.
What he was more curious about was.
Why Luo Hao possessed such powerful strength.
Tang San's quick transition into the role of a subordinate.
Was somewhat beyond Luo Hao's expectations.
Luo Hao pondered for a moment, then raised an eyebrow at Tang San.
He smiled and said:
"Want to learn?"
"I'll teach you?"
