"I've been scolded, now I'm actually being scolded by an ant!"

Hearing the mockery coming through the receiver, his eyelids twitched as he howled in wild fury!

Before, he had been scolded, but it was always by important figures.

Now, being scolded by an ant like Hu Xiaobei was something he couldn't accept, which is why he furiously cursed at Hu Xiaobei…

As he was cursing like this, he viciously cursed those four who had been sent on the mission hundreds of times in his heart!

In his opinion, those four were the trash of trash.

Otherwise, how could they lose in a fight with one against four…

…

"Not talking anymore? Are you completely ashamed now?"

Just as he was cursing those four pieces of trash over and over, he heard Xiaobei's even colder mockery coming through the receiver.

Taking a deep breath, he said coldly, "Hu Xiaobei, you dare talk to me like this, do you know who I am?"

In his eyes, Xiaobei must not have known his own strength, which is why he dared to curse at him.

Once he understood his strength, he wouldn't dare to even raise his voice when talking to him, let alone curse at him!

Thinking this way, he heard a lazy response from the receiver, "Who are you? You're just a piece of trash who only dares to shoot from behind!"

"Trash? Good! Good! Good! Hu Xiaobei, you've completely angered me. I will kill you very soon, I promise!"

"Big words, anyone can say them!"

"This time it's not big words because I am really angry!"

"Okay, then! Oh, and I hope this time, you can really send some experts. Also, I hope you won't continue hiding in the back like a turtle. Otherwise, it'd be really boring, you know?"

"Fine! I'll come personally and watch you kneel before me begging for mercy."

"I'll be waiting for you!"

Hearing Xiaobei's calm response, he wanted to say something more, but just as he opened his mouth, he heard the 'beep beep' of an engaged tone!

Disconnected!

Knowing that Hu Xiaobei had hung up on him, he was stunned for a moment, then cried out in hysterical fury, "Hu Xiaobei, Hu Xiaobei, Hu Xiaobei, I will make you die, I will make you die, I must make you die!"

Before, he had never hated someone like he did now…

In his eyes, only by completely shredding Hu Xiaobei to pieces could he truly release his hatred…

Thinking coldly like this, the mobile phone clenched in his hand suddenly vibrated again!

"Dammit, you're calling again! Aren't you done? You really think I'm easy to bully?"

Thinking it was Hu Xiaobei calling, he answered the phone without hesitation and immediately started cursing.

After the cursing, he heard an absolutely icy voice.

"You've got quite the temper, daring to curse at me!"

"President, I..."

Hearing it was the president's voice, his face changed, and he quickly tried to explain!

But as soon as he opened his mouth, he was directly interrupted by Tanaka Nanten, "Enough with the nonsense, come see me now!"

"Yes! I'll be right there!"

After agreeing like this, he stretched out his hand and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead!

He knew he had some status and strength on his side.

But when it really came to comparing with Tanaka Nanten, he was nothing…

…

Over at Xiaohe Village, Hu Xiaobei, unaware of his current frustration, had thrown the phone away after hanging up.

After that, Hu Xiaobei watched as the four obediently followed Hei and Xiaobai away...

Before, Hu Xiaobei had planned to finish them off because he knew they could cause trouble, but after knowing Hei and Xiaobai had broken through, Hu Xiaobei knew he didn't need to finish them off!

Because after the breakthrough, Hei and Xiaobai were incredibly powerful, so if these guys had any other ideas now, it would truly mean seeking death…

Thinking this, Hu Xiaobei turned his head and glanced at the green vines in the distance.

Afterward, Hu Xiaobei softly snapped his fingers.

At that instant, the once restless vines completely calmed down...

"Thank you for just now!"

After expressing his gratitude, Hu Xiaobei left the area...

The deeper he delved into cultivation, the more Hu Xiaobei understood plants and gradually, he felt that all plants were alive.

Because he understood they were all living beings, Hu Xiaobei would thus sincerely express his thanks.

He knew, even without the help of those plants, he would have won against them, but it certainly wouldn't have been as easy as it was now...

...

As Hu Xiaobei left, the person who had been scolded by Hu Xiaobei over the phone arrived outside Tanaka Nanten's room.

After nervously taking a deep breath, he gently knocked on the door...

Soon, he heard Tanaka Nanten's deep voice, "Come in!"

"Yes!"

He answered and pushed the door open!

After entering, he glanced at Tanaka Nanten.

Immediately after that, he knelt down swiftly.

Once kneeling properly, he spoke respectfully, "President!"

Having said that, he heard a chilling voice command, "Slap yourself!"

Stunned for a moment, his eyelid twitched, "President, you..."

"What? Can't you understand what I'm saying?"

"Yes! I'll slap myself right away!"

Sensing Tanaka Nanten's real anger, he quickly raised his hand, and soon, he started hitting his own face frantically...

It hurt!

After striking his face wildly, he felt great pain, but he dared not stop!

And so, he ended up swelling his face...

It was then he heard the faint voice say, "Stop!"

"Yes!"

He responded with the corners of his mouth twitching slightly...

At this moment, his cheeks were swollen, and his teeth felt loose; in short, he was utterly disheveled.

Seeing his absolutely wretched state, Tanaka Nanten said coldly, "Aso, do you know why I asked you to hit yourself this time?"

Hearing Tanaka Nanten's question, Aso carefully glanced at him and said, "It's because I insulted you over the phone earlier, but at that time, I..."

After glancing at Aso, Tanaka Nanten said coldly, "I am not that petty! If it were just that minor matter, I wouldn't have asked you to slap yourself. The reason I'm angry now is because you previously disobeyed my orders! I had instructed you to send all of the Bright Department's ninjas after Hu Xiaobei, yet what did you do?"

Feeling the irritation, Aso's eyelid twitched, and he quickly shrank his neck in fear, "President, you... You know!"

Tanaka Nanten let out a cold laugh and coldly said, "Nonsense! I had already told you that this Hu Xiaobei was not simple and to send more men, yet what did you do? You only sent four men! Now, not only did you fail to complete the task, but you've also caused me to lose four men for nothing. Tell me, what do you plan to do?"

Feeling Tanaka Nanten's murderous intent, Aso suddenly felt an urge to wet his pants and, taking a deep breath, he hastily said, "President, this time I realize I was wrong, truly wrong. Please spare me this time, don't force me to commit seppuku, please no seppuku."

Fear of death!

Ordinary people are afraid to die, and someone in his position even more so.

He knew that once he died, everything would be over for good...

Hearing Aso plead so pitifully, Tanaka Nanten slightly frowned...

Sensing Tanaka Nanten's hesitation, Aso's eyes lit up as he hastily said, "President, I know that I caused this issue. I'll resolve it properly now. I'll take charge and personally lead a team to Huaxia to capture him and rescue the young master!"

Hearing him volunteer, Tanaka Nanten said coldly, "Aso, you've been with me for a long time. I also can't bear to have you commit seppuku directly! So, I'm giving you one last chance. Remember, this is your final opportunity. If you mess up again, you're dead!"

"Yes! Yes! Yes! President, I guarantee to eliminate Hu Xiaobei!"

"Fine! Get lost!"

"Yes!"

Having agreed, Aso ran out from there in an utterly disheveled state...
