Chapter 1536 - 1535: Venomous Heart
"With my mind wrapped around so many turns, you still don't know who I am? Who am I, do you really not know?"Wang Han drew out a long whip, and with a crack on the ground, it created a slightly deep crevice.
Goodness, if that whip really hit the body, just imagining the pain made them shudder involuntarily.
"Madam, it's not that we don't want you to go in, but Boss Geng said that everyone else with invitation cards can enter, except you, so as not to disturb the Vice Sect Leader's rest. Boss Geng is worried that if the Vice Sect Leader sees you, his emotions might become unstable, causing trouble. We ask for your understanding, Madam."
The Gatekeeper was a clever person, realizing that a small fry like him was no match for the opponent, quickly bringing up those above him.
Now it was beyond their capabilities. If those higher up didn't intervene, given Wang Han's temperament, half of Zijing City would be turned upside down by her.
"I wondered who could be so bold. Turns out it's your legendary Boss Geng. How about it—last time, I spared his life, and he still feels uneasy, doesn't he? Fine, since he doesn't want me to see the people inside, surely I can at least meet your Boss Geng?"
Wang Han named Geng Bucuo directly. At this moment, she needed to see Geng Bucuo first. Only by teaching him a lesson would he understand what it means for power to be superior, what it means for fists to rule.
"But, but Boss Geng is handling matters outside Zijing City and won't be back anytime soon. How about you wait until Boss Geng returns, and then we can send you a message?"
The gatekeepers couldn't even straighten their tongues as they spoke. In Wang Han's intimidating presence, even breathing felt like a luxury.
The chill that ran down their spines made them think talking to Wang Han any longer might cost them their lives.
"So with your Boss Geng not here, I, as the Family Head's wife, cannot even go in to check on Tang Rao's warriors?"
Wang Han said this casually, her manner and tone as if she were merely asking if they had taken a nap at noon or wanted some afternoon tea.
When the warriors relaxed their hearts, thinking Wang Han had listened to everything they said, she suddenly unleashed all her hostility toward them: "So Geng Bucuo is your master, and the Family Head's words don't count anymore, do they?"
Her authority shocked the entire Kao Shan Sect.
The gatekeepers who had been holding steadfastly to Geng Bucuo's orders were now all collapsed on the ground, coughing up blood, yet not fatally wounded.
Before making a move, Wang Han had already decided to only teach these blind people a lesson, never intending to take their lives.
"Since you are so blind, after suffering once, you should learn some sense—now get lost!"
Wang Han couldn't help but shake her head at the sight of these people.
If this was Tang Rao's Kao Shan Sect, Wang Han indeed felt a bit disappointed.
Seeing that Geng Bucuo was not back yet, the gatekeepers realized that if they clashed head-on, it would be like an egg against a stone. It was better to withdraw now and wait for Geng Bucuo to return to seek a resolution, rather than die under Wang Han's whip.
Despite having five or six gatekeepers, with one scare from Wang Han, now not a single one was visible—they had vanished without a trace.
"Miss, the last time we caused trouble, if we cause trouble again this time, we really can't stay in Zijing City anymore. Miss, you must think thrice."
Jin Qiao was bold, but Wang Han was even bolder. She hadn't thought about where she could go if she really couldn't stay in Zijing City anymore. At that moment, her mind was filled with thoughts about whether Tang Rao would ever prioritize brotherhood over everything else, and what future the Kao Shan Sect could possibly have.
Thinking of this, Wang Han's foot had already stepped into the floral hall.
"Didn't manage to kill me last time? Here to continue your revenge?"
Wang Han was arrogant, and Xiao Yue was not someone who could be easily pushed around either.
Since a near-death experience at Ghost Gate, Xiao Yue had become much more resilient than before.
"It's not really about revenge, just checking how well your wounds have healed, and whether you need any more finishing touches."
Although Wang Han and Xiao Yue both wore smiles on their faces, it was clear to any observant person that there was no warmth in those smiles—they had fought hard to maintain them for this long.
"I thought since you entered Kao Shan Sect until now, we've never met, and there's no grudge between us. Why are you picking on me? Did I offend you somehow?"
Xiao Yue's voice was calm; during her rest in the room, she had contemplated many possibilities of why Wang Han held a grudge against her. But none of them stood. She even wanted to personally ask Wang Han to release the resentment she couldn't swallow. Yet, before she had the chance, Wang Han came to her.
"It's not that you offended me. It's just that as the new Madam entering the house, one needs to establish some authority. You are just my target. Beating you to establish authority wasn't too difficult, making my entry smooth! Now that I've beaten you, you should wise up and let bygones be bygones. But you and your lover keep bearing a grudge against me. Even after establishing authority, I still want to trouble you. What, do you have a problem with that?"
Wang Han laughed out loud.
She wasn't just laughing at Xiao Yue but also at Tang Rao.
Laughing at his attempt to expand Kao Shan Sect, thinking only of himself and brotherhood without considering the hierarchy, everyone acting independently, like loose sand, nobody usable in crucial times.
"There are plenty of Madams in the house. When did the Family Head give you the privilege to discipline us? Why does the Family Head treat us with respect, and yet as soon as you arrive, it's either a beating or criticism? I also want to ask who exactly gave you the power to freely beat the warriors?"
Xiao Yue, sitting in the Vice Sect Leader position, never worried that her words or actions might upset Tang Rao. Of course, to them, if Tang Rao were truly tyrannical, they wouldn't have followed him for so long.
"Xiao Yue, put away that little thought of yours!"
Wang Han didn't answer Xiao Yue's previous question but gave her a warning that she could barely comprehend.
"Do you think that when I first came to Kao Shan Sect, why didn't I trouble others, but chose you? Because your hostility toward me was so apparent that even a blind person could see it. If I guess correctly, you probably also fancy Tang Rao, right?"
If she didn't like Tang Rao, Xiao Yue wouldn't have looked at Wang Han with the eyes of a rival from the very beginning.
