The School Beauty’s Super Rogue

"Wei Qingtian was defeated by Qin Hao..." Tao Yunqing spoke with a slight tremor.

At this moment, he fully understood why Wei Qingtian knew spiritual techniques and dared to openly kill in the Outer Courtyard.

All the mysteries have been revealed.

He is Senior Brother Wei’s man!

"Qin Hao? The person who just left?"

Senior Brother Wei fixed his gaze on Tao Yunqing’s face.

"Yes!"

Tao Yunqing, whose face was almost disfigured, lowered his head, not daring to meet Senior Brother Wei’s eyes.

"Tell me about his situation."

Senior Brother Wei spoke with an undeniable tone.

"That Qin Hao... is a newcomer who appeared out of nowhere..."

After Tao Yunqing’s explanation, Senior Brother Wei understood, and a trace of surprise appeared on his stern face: "So Vice Sect Leader Kong is so angry because of that Qin Hao’s trickery?"

"However, he managed to extort a Void Storage Ring from the Vice Sect Leader Kong’s hands? That’s practically unheard of in history!"

Senior Brother Wei was very surprised, as Tao Yunqing had not mentioned anything about Elder Ji’s Jade Pendant.

It wasn’t that Tao Yunqing deliberately omitted it, but he didn’t know the key to this matter either.

When you hear things secondhand, there’s always something left out.

"Senior Brother Wei..." At this moment, a tall, lean disciple nearby showed a sly expression: "I heard not long ago that Su Lingfeng is tempted by the Void Storage Ring. It seems the so-called Void Storage Ring must be in that brat Qin Hao’s hands."

"Hmm." Senior Brother Wei nodded slightly, his face cold: "That Su Lingfeng’s sudden rise and rapid advancement are already dismissing us. This time, I must seize that Void Storage Ring before him, to show him that I, Wei Zhongxun, am not so easy to bully!"

As he spoke, the sound of the wind drifted from the distance in the night.

The wind was faint, but it did not escape Wei Zhongxun’s ears.

He turned his head to look, seeing shadows approaching in the night, one of which looked very familiar.

"Su Lingfeng is here!"

Wei Zhongxun raised an eyebrow, his face filled with restrained anger: "You go stop Su Lingfeng, I’ll go capture that Qin Hao right now!"

"Yes!"

The other Inner Sect disciples dared not linger. After responding, they all strode forward to intercept Su Lingfeng and his party.

"Tao Yunqing, make sure to handle Wei Qingtian properly; if he dies, I’ll hold you responsible!"

Wei Zhongxun left a harsh warning and then instantly disappeared from sight.

Tao Yunqing looked at Wei Qingtian on the ground, feeling bitter and unspoken frustration.

I’m not sure what to do myself, and you’re asking me to handle the situation for you?

...

The night was vast.

Wei Zhongxun was dashing down the street at an extreme pace, appearing only as a shadow that people couldn’t clearly see.

From Tao Yunqing’s earlier account, Wei Zhongxun knew where Qin Hao was staying.

Before long, he stood in front of the Wang Mansion and shouted, "Qin Hao, get out here!"

This voice was like a thunderclap, shattering the night.

Some nearby bricks and glass shattered with a clang at this shout!

The street was littered with shards of glass and bricks.

A nearby door opened, revealing a puzzled head: "Who is causing a ruckus here so late at night?"

Seeing the mess on the ground, the person’s expression changed.

Coincidentally, they saw Wei Zhongxun looking over.

Just one glance.

The disciple closed the door with a scream, filled with dread.

This small episode displeased Wei Zhongxun, and he shouted again at the Wang Mansion ahead: "Qin Hao. If you don’t come out, I’ll start a massacre!"

After his words, five seconds passed, with no movement from Wang Mansion.

"Still pretending to be dead?"

Wei Zhongxun’s face darkened as he walked up.

Bam!

The tightly shut door flew open as he approached.

Wei Zhongxun quickly walked into the hall, ears perked to catch every sound.

In the span of a breath, he heard nothing, and his brows furrowed: "Why is there no sound? Could this house be empty?"

As a powerful figure at the Innate Realm, Wei Zhongxun had absolute confidence in his hearing.

If there was no sound, then indeed, the house was empty.

"Where could Qin Hao have gone?"

Wei Zhongxun’s brow was tightly knit, evident of his impatience.

"Forget it, this Outer Courtyard isn’t that big. I’ll just find some disciples and ask around, there’s bound to be some clue of their whereabouts!"

As he finished speaking, Wei Zhongxun left the Wang Mansion with large strides.

...

At the same time.

In the cellar of the Wang Mansion.

Black stones were laid on the ground, emitting a pure white light.

The light formed walls, enclosing the entire space.

Qin Hao was leaning close to the glow, seemingly listening intently.

He shook his head at this moment, revealing a relaxed smile: "He’s gone."

"That was close!"

Nearby, Wang Tu, Jin Kui, and others all sighed in relief.

Soon after, Jin Ni’Er, still shaken, asked, "Brother, who was that guy just now? Why did he want to catch us?"

"I don’t know, just some petty thief coveting my Void Storage Ring." Qin Hao replied indifferently.

He had a bad feeling earlier, suspecting that the Inner Sect disciples might come after him, using Wei Qingtian’s injury as a pretext.

Their goal was nothing but the Void Storage Ring.

Unexpectedly, his guess was spot on.

Fortunately, he had prepared ahead, and with Wang Tu’s help, they all hid in the cellar.

It happened that the cellar contained some Spirit Array Foundation Stones, which he used to set up a Sound Insulation Array, thus deceiving the aggressive Wei Zhongxun.

"Boss, are the Inner Sect disciples really that powerful? We’re all hiding from them in a big group?" Jin Kui asked with some doubt.

Qin Hao squinted his eyes: "They are indeed powerful, likely much stronger than Wei Qingtian."

Upon hearing this, the others were all taken aback. Wei Qingtian was already very strong; being much stronger than him meant this person was terrifying!

Qin Hao smiled silently, but he actually had more to say.

If he were willing to go all out, he wouldn’t necessarily be inferior to Wei Zhongxun.

But for now, being in the Outer Courtyard and having no support in the Huashan Sect, it wouldn’t be beneficial for future growth to clash with Wei Zhongxun.

So, he chose to endure for the time being.

"Boss, maybe Wei Zhongxun is still lurking around. It’s not safe to go out now, what should we do?"

Wang Tu was a bit anxious, feeling cornered at his own doorstep was quite vexing.

"No worries." Qin Hao waved his hand nonchalantly, retrieving a tripod furnace, firewood, and other items from the Void Storage Ring.

Poom!

The flames surged, and Qin Hao took out some herbs, precisely the ones for refining Gathering Essence Pills.

"Boss, are you planning to do alchemy here?" Instantly, everyone widened their eyes; despite the timing, the boss seemed to have the leisure to perform alchemy?

Qin Hao, controlling the flames in the furnace, said calmly, "Jin Kui, Wang Tu, Ni’Er... you are all very close to the Innate Realm. If you take the Gathering Essence Pill and do a full sprint, you should be able to successfully converge spiritual qi and advance to the Innate Realm."
