Chapter 124 Purpose! News!

"Oh?" Su Hao was slightly taken aback, looking at the very serious Zhou Zhengtang with a hint of helplessness. "To be honest, I really can't see how much value I have right now..."

"Since you can't see it, let me explain it to you, taking Mu Qianqian's case as an example."

Zhou Zhengtang nodded, moved slightly closer, and then whispered, "Actually, Mu Qianqian's family has recently encountered trouble. In order to deal with the family's troubles, the Mu family decided to arrange a marriage for Mu Qianqian. However, normally there's nothing wrong with that, it's just that the person she's marrying isn't a normal person..."

Zhou Zhengtang stopped there and didn't continue.

Because he knew that Su Hao must have guessed the reason behind it all.

"Could it be... a ghost marriage?" Su Hao asked with a solemn expression and a serious nod.

He had heard of this thing before, but he never thought it existed in this world.

"What the hell!?"

Zhou Zhengtang immediately raised his neck and shrieked, "That guy from Lianyan is mentally unstable; to put it bluntly, he's an idiot!"

Zhou Zhengtang was speechless.

I don't know what's wrong with Su Hao's brain; how could he even think of something like a ghost marriage?

That's truly an imaginative mind.

"I see..." Su Hao suddenly realized, "But what does this have to do with me?"

Su Hao asked again, puzzled.

"Of course it's related, and it's very relevant!"

Zhou Zhengtang said, "Now that Tang Huang has been expelled from the sect, and you are the most talented in recent years, and have also gained Master Liu's approval, you are allowed to accompany him in public. This shows how highly they regard you!"

"Mu Qianqian naturally also saw this point. She didn't want to marry a fool, so she had to find a suitable backer who could solve her problems and give her confidence. And that person was naturally Master Liu."

"But of course she can't marry Master Liu, so she found you because of your potential. You might be highly valued by Master Liu in the future and inherit his mantle. If we can get you on board, it's the same as getting Master Liu on board!"

"The value of a Bone Forging Realm martial artist is far greater than you imagine!"

Su Hao frowned slightly upon hearing this.

I never expected there to be so many twists and turns involved.

As expected, there's no such thing as a free lunch, and no beautiful woman will willingly throw herself into your arms; it's all about self-interest.

"But I haven't received Liu Shi's approval either, have I? Isn't she afraid of wasting her efforts?"

Su Hao was puzzled again.

In truth, she was merely sitting with Master Liu at Zhou Zhengtang's wedding banquet.

But Liu Shi never said what he would do in the future.

So, it's really not accurate to say that he was highly regarded by Master Liu.

Because he received treatment that was even less than what Tang Huang used to receive in a single day.

How can we talk about valuing or respecting them?

"So, opportunity favors the prepared. Wouldn't it be different to try and curry favor after you've already made it big?"

Zhou Zhengtang shook his head, feeling helpless at Su Hao's words. "Besides, the only loss she suffers from trying to get close to you is occasionally showing off her figure. If she can keep you hooked like a sly smile, wouldn't she be the biggest beneficiary if you really become successful in the future?"

"Okay... women will only slow down my punching speed..."

Su Hao shrugged.

Although it's unclear how much of what Senior Brother Zhou predicted was true or false.

However, it's true that Mu Qianqian is materialistic.

Because I got close to Zhou Zhengtang back then, he said a lot of unpleasant things about me behind my back.

Therefore, this person's nature is such that they are two-faced, neither in public nor in private, making them unsuitable as a friend, let alone a wife.

"Speaking of which, after Tang Huang left, I heard he went to the Ironclad Martial Arts School in Ishibashi Town. That school happens to be an enemy of our school's leader. That guy is truly a scoundrel!"

Zhou Zhengtang regretted not taking more drastic measures that night when he thought about Tang Huang's matter.

Moreover, he had already roughly found out the whole story.

The reason Liu Jun appeared near the Zhou residence that night was because Tang Huang informed him, with the aim of taking down Su Hao.

As for why they wanted to take down Su Hao, Zhou Zhengtang couldn't figure out the logic of these two people and couldn't understand it for a while.

Even Su Hao, who was directly involved, couldn't understand it.

"Ironclad Martial Arts School?"

Su Hao was also slightly taken aback.

I didn't expect that Tang Huang would find a new job so quickly after only a short time away?

Moreover, the Ironclad Martial Arts School is also a top-tier martial arts school in Ishibashi Town. Its headmaster has also reached the Bone Forging Realm. Although its reputation is not as good as Master Liu's, its strength should not be underestimated.

"What I'm telling you today is to warn you to be extra careful in the future. After all, Tang Huang was expelled from the sect, and he must hate you to the core. So he'll definitely be waiting for an opportunity in the shadows."

Zhou Zhengtang solemnly instructed.

"Besides, with his talent, even if he joins the Ironclad Boxing Gym, he'll quickly stand out. And given his vengeful nature, he'll definitely come looking for trouble!"

Zhou Zhengtang looked around and then spoke.

"Okay! I understand, thank you, Brother Zhou!" Su Hao nodded in thanks.

"Thank me for what?" Zhou Zhengtang shook his head. "Actually, I should be thanking you. The information you gave me last time helped me a lot. Luckily, we responded in time, otherwise we would have been in big trouble."

"Oh? Did something happen in Qingzhi Valley?"

Upon hearing this, Su Hao's gaze immediately sharpened.

"Yes! The imperial decree has arrived. From now on, Qingzhi Valley will be taken over by our Ren family. You have no idea how much effort we put into raising money to secure this position!"

Zhou Zhengtang also felt somewhat emotional.

At that time, Su Hao sent them a message that after discussions between the Zhou and Ren families, they decided that they must take over Qingzhi Valley.

The news from the Rice Gang may have some truth to it, but it is most likely just a provocation by hostile forces.

The purpose, of course, is to make them give up.

However, the Zhou and Ren families have been hiding their strength for so many years for the sake of Qingzhi Valley and this opportunity, and it is finally time for them to unleash their power and do something big.

"It's good that you got it..."

Su Hao breathed a sigh of relief.

However, I had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

As for what was wrong, he had a feeling that there was something fishy about the whole thing.

Judging from Zhou Zhengtang's description, it seems that this official document was obtained far too easily.

"Is Yang Lu really just spreading alarmist rumors? Or is there some kind of conspiracy within the Rice Gang?"

Su Hao thought to himself.

But in any case, at least the matter is now resolved.

With official documents in hand, the Zhou family, at least in Qingzhi Valley, is a place that no force, large or small, in the city dares to easily covet.
