I Am Born With A Silver Spoon novel Chapter 767

Everyone was dumbfounded by the gruesome scene before them.

“Master Chen!”

Some heads of the families bowed in respect and awe. Following their actions, the remaining family heads bowed down as well. Suddenly, a tremendous cheer of ‘Master Chen’ echoed throughout the entire Underground square.

At the same time, Li Feilong signaled for the stunned Li Shaozong—who was still standing on the stage—to leave with him immediately. Li Shaozong noticed the hint and started moving away slowy.

“Xiao Cangsheng, I’ve asked you before, and I’ll ask you again. I can spare your life, but you must give me one good reason why I shouldn’t kill you!” Chen Hao said plainly.

“I… I’m willing to be your servant and serve you forever!” Xiao Cangsheng swallowed nervously before replying promptly. What happened to Gui Shiliu is truly horrific; I’d rather be a lowly servant than end up like him! Xiao Cangsheng thought to himself.

“Very well then, I suppose you know what to do next!” Chen Hao said duly while glancing at the father and son of the Li Family. He then put both of his hands behind his back.

“You have dug your own grave by offending Master Chen!” Xiao Cangsheng bellowed and charged at the duo.

Li Feilong had previously signaled Gui Shiliu to kill Chen Hao. Unfortunately, little did he know that this little act was the cause of his untimely death. Xiao Cangsheng finished off the duo, swiftly killing Li Feilong and Li Shaozong on the spot.

“If no one is against it, I suppose that the entire underworld is under my control now?” asked Chen Hao.

“Certainly, Master Chen. You are much more fitted to be our leader than the Wan Family!”

“Yes, Master Chen! Your ability is truly exceptional and brilliant. We, the Yang Family, shall serve you as our leader for generations to come. You must not underestimate us; the Yang Family owns one-third of the properties here in Ji Province!” The head of the Yang Family came forward to praise and appeal to Chen Hao.

The rest of the heads came up with different ideas to praise Chen Hao and get into his good books, all except for Wan Yaozong. He was overwhelmed by the situation and his complicated feelings. Damn it! How did I not notice such a powerful expert right in front of my eyes? I even looked down on him! At this very moment, he did not dare utter a single word to Chen Hao just in case he ended up like the Li Family, for he knew that he had offended him several times before this. However, Chen Hao did not even pay any attention to him at all from the beginning.

“Regarding the magical relics from Mount Taiwu, I’ll only have one of them. The rest will be shared equally among the rest of you!” Chen Hao said curtly.

“What? Thank you very much, Master Chen!” Everyone was touched by Chen Hao’s generosity.

As Wan Xue gazed at Chen Hao, who was at the center of attention, her heart pounded rapidly. It’s him! At this moment, she finally realized that the one she had been waiting for was not Li Shaozong, but Chen Hao instead. She felt happy for Chen Hao from the bottom of her heart, and hoped that he could take a look at her for once. Unfortunately, he vanished without a trace after delegating some tasks to Shen Piaopiao, who was Chen Hao’s disciple. She would be in charge of all matters relating to profit distribution among the families, which saddened and disappointed Wan Xue.

……

The dynamics of Ji Province changed abruptly after the Underground Ceremony. Ever since then, all families of ancient martial arts, Hidden Tribes, and even rich families with unusual affiliations were under the full control of Master Chen Hao. Besides, a lot of rogue cultivators who used to work for the rich families came to serve Chen Hao too. These cultivators, like Lin Jiu, learned cultivation by themselves and were unaffiliated with any organizations; they were more than happy to serve under such a powerful cultivator as Chen Hao. Almost instantly, about twenty-seven rogue cultivators turned to serve under him. Most of them were First Tier Cultivators, while only a handful of them were Second Tier Cultivators. Among these cultivators, Xiao Cangsheng was the strongest one of them all. Nevertheless, Chen Hao did not reject their wish to serve under him since he was in desperate need of their services. Naturally, as Chen Hao’s first disciple, Shen Piaopiao had full control in almost everything even though she was rather weak in her cultivation.
