Eric hadn't expected this guy to be so scared and decisive in running away. He thought that after all that happened he would at least put up a fight before escaping.
But he had clearly underestimated Master Huo Tie's scaring power, and thus overestimated the guy's courage. This person was the perfect example of bullying the weak and fearing the strong.
While this escape changed his plans a little bit, the end result was still the same. So, he wasn't much disappointed with what happened.
The three Masters inside that room were in truly bad shape, as they had yet to recover from the torture and even more after they suffered the desperate attempts of Young Master Cui Tao.
Their actions before Young Master Cui Tao escaped were mere bluffing accompanied by their strong aura and desire for revenge.
It was impossible for someone to actually recuperate from their tortured state, into their prime conditions in just a few mere minutes, even if they were actually given high-quality health potions.
Well, the good thing was that their gamble had been won, and they had made their target run with his tail between his legs.
At the same time, Eric wasn't too worried about this guy's escape, as he had already another rabbit in his trap.
Even though the value was quite lower than the one that escaped, he would still be a good chess piece against the Cui family, or to be more exact those idiots that thought of acting against Cui Xie.
After this failed attempt, he was extremely sure that the Cui family would actually come and recognize the siblings once again, in order to get their hands on the Potions deal.
It was something that no family, Clan, or power could easily neglect. And the Cui family even more so, as the one at the center of the deal was none other than one of their descendants.
Unable to keep their selves standing the three Masters had no other choice but to fall down on the ground, to take a breather, as they looked around for any possible danger.
They didn't need to speak in order to understand each other's thoughts, as the most important part was the identity of the person that had saved them or at least the reason for doing so.
"Master, I have a feeling that you are here with us and are able to hear us! Can you tell us why you saved us, and why didn't you act when that brat tried to escape?"
Huo Tie was truly a figure who couldn't be underestimated, even at such a moment he was still able to feel his presence. That made Eric evaluate him even more, as he said,
"I only saved you due to my disciple's good karma with you, and his request! While I could have killed that brat when he run away, I don't want to intervene in my disciple's karma.
His path and his debtors need to be cleaned by himself! Make sure to tell him these words of mine!"
With that, the three Masters could only feel a slight breeze run through the room, and then the feeling of someone watching them disappeared.
The three of them looked at each other with weird expressions for a moment, before seeming to arrive at the same conclusion.
Leaving the room that the three Masters were resting, Eric run in the direction of the escaping Young Master Cui Tao.
More than actually following him to beat him up, or kill him, he wanted to make sure that he didn't return. If he did, then Eric would have to fight him himself, as the three Masters were useless.
Still, even after some careful searching, he found no print of Young Master Cui Tao, so he once again returned to the residence.
By now, the whole place had fallen down, as the numbers of the Longgang City forces, were beyond the expectations, and capabilities of the forces that the Young Masters of the Cui family had brought.
When the local forces finally broke through, the three Masters had stood up joined with their forces, while Young Master Cui Xie seemed to have given a break to the guy he was torturing inside.
Once the four of them came together, Cui Xie looked solemnly at the three Masters and said,
"When he attempted to assassinate me and take my life, I took your advice and didn't act in anger, or rage!
Now, not only me but even you have been involved in this and should understand that there is no path in which that bastard and I coexist!
So, are you going to help me wipe him out, or will you just apply the advice that you gave to me?
Either way, Gao Jixie will die tonight!"
The three Masters looked at each other in the eye before sighing and saying,
"Sigh~! It's not that we don't want to get rid of that bastard little brother, but he has a strong backing behind him, the Li family of Wenzhou!
One Gao Jixie isn't even worth a damn bug to us, but not even 100 of us could face the Li family!"
"Li family of Wenzhou? I don't care even if the Jade Emperor wants to protect him! Tonight, Gao Jixie needs to die!"
His words surprised and startled the three Masters as they hadn't expected Cui Xie to react like that, so decisive and overbearing.
It looked like he was overestimating himself, and acting in rage, but there was a surprising self-confidence in his words that made him look like his victory was assured.
But just what was this kid relying upon to actually be fearless even in front of something as the Li family of Wenzhou. When they remembered the words of the Master that had saved them.
Could it be that the disciple he was talking about was Cui Xie? Just what was the background and strength of that Master?
The three of them felt that it was quite difficult to estimate. Furthermore, that guy had given them some wondrous medicine that had helped them recover so fast.
For certain, the medicine that he had given to them, should be of a higher grade than the health potions that they were about to produce.
Just thinking about that, and the fact that it was Cui Xie who brought the formulae of the potions to them, they couldn't help but get even more convinced of the fact that Cui Xie was that Master's disciple.
Right after saying those words, Cui Xie walked towards his people and said,
"Prepare for a night of blood, we will go hack Weng Hao, and Gao Jixie tonight!"
'Rawwwrrr, rawwwrrr~!'
The men in front of him were similar to wolves who were starving for blood. The moment that they received the order their aura's changed immediately.
Cui Xie didn't linger much in that place, as he knew that the later he reached the bigger were the chances of those guys escaping or running away.
Even though he would love to make Gao Jixie his first victim, he knew that it was a bit difficult to attack the Gao's Mansion.
After all, Li YunMu was there, and the Li family wouldn't allow anything to happen to her. So he would have to target Weng Hao first.
The three Master could only sight once again, and follow behind, as they thought that things would get even more difficult for them from now on.
Following behind Cui Xie's caravan of people though, they were shocked to discover that he wasn't attacking Gao Jixie's Mansion, but Weng Hao's Mansion and the Weng family's place.
The three fogies couldn't help but look at each other with bewilderment, as their brains were working over capacity, but they were unable to make a certain connection.
In no time, Cui Xie's caravan reached the entrance of Weng family's Mansion, as he got out of his car, and started saying out loud,
"Weng Hao you piece of trash, come out and receive your judgment! To think that you would actually conspire with outsiders against your friends and partners!"
It wasn't that the three Masters behind hadn't thought it was weird that the three of them were the only ones targeted by the newcomers.
But they didn't have proof to confront Weng Hao and Gao Jixie. Even if they had, Weng Hao was an easy target but Gao Jixie was another matter altogether.
Just what was this young man trying to do?
"Blasphemy! How dare you call our Family Head on his name!? You are looking for death!"
All of a sudden a white-bearded old man appeared from behind the gate, and immediately launched a surprise attack on Cui Xie.
It was clear that the old man wanted to kill Cui Xie as soon as possible, and then try to pressure and dissipate the crowd.
In fact, if things went according to his wishes, he could even turn the situation around and force these guys in front of him into subjugation.
As long as he was able to poison them with his special poison and made them swear blood loyalty to his Weng family, then his Weng family would become the overlords of this Longgang City.
That was the reason why the Weng family was willing to help Gao Jixie, they wanted to use this opportunity to clear all the others and become the overlords.
As a matter of fact, they were even thinking of killing Gao Jixie and then putting the blame on Cui Xie, and the others.
Their centuries-old wishes were about to get fulfilled tonight, only for something unexpected to happen and freeze.
Still, it wasn't like they didn't have another option, they could still fight. As long as this worked out, they had a chance…
