The Underwear King’s Renown Chapter 74: What Does It Mean to Go Too Far
What exactly is the relationship between those two? Are they really just partners? Are they planning to get married? Is my sister going to leave me? How can this be? No! Absolutely not! I won't allow it!
“No! I—I won’t allow it!” After imagining countless scenarios, unable to bear the weight, Hua Lingluo finally couldn't hold back and shouted out loud.
“I won’t allow the two of you to be together!”
The outburst startled everyone present. This single declaration successfully fanned the flames of gossip in everyone’s heart. In that instant, many people’s faces lit up with sudden understanding.
No wonder Elder Hua Manman of the Warm Fragrance Pavilion had put in so much effort to help the Supreme Qi Induction Sect. It turns out it wasn’t for mere worldly riches, but because she had taken a liking to someone from the Supreme Qi Induction Sect.
Although the young man’s aura seemed rather ordinary, and he didn’t look particularly formidable, his striking good looks were hard to ignore. Many female cultivators, upon seeing the handsome Luo Xingchen, couldn't help but be moved. Their eyes shone with longing, as if they wished to abandon restraint and immediately experience a night of passion with him.
Even some male cultivators, with certain particular tastes, felt their hearts stir.
Luo Twelve, on the other hand, felt only admiration for his ancestral master. The ancestral master was indeed extraordinary. Even when concealing his true strength, he was still so dazzling!
He just wondered whether Hua Manman was truly worthy of the ancestral master.
As for Hua Manman herself, her heart was left with nothing but endless bitterness. I would love to become Dao companions with someone so powerful, but how could such a person ever notice me?
Hua Lingluo was still fuming. More accurately, it was jealousy! It was hatred! He simply couldn't accept another man being so close to his sister!
“You brat, you—”
“Brother!”
Hua Lingluo had barely uttered three words, not even managing to vent his anger at Luo Xingchen, when Hua Manman cut him off.
In an instant, all of Hua Lingluo’s anger dissipated without a trace.
“He’s my boss. You can’t be angry with him,” Hua Manman said earnestly.
“All right, all right. Whatever you say, I’ll listen to you,” Hua Lingluo replied, immediately replacing his furious expression with a wide grin.
If people didn’t know about their relationship, they’d surely think Hua Lingluo was nothing more than Hua Manman’s sycophant.
But now that the truth was out, why did it feel even more... exciting?
Only then did Hua Manman appear somewhat satisfied. She turned to Luo Xingchen. “Boss, whatever you plan to do next, I will support you unconditionally!”
The crowd’s expressions grew stranger. Why did Hua Manman’s attitude toward Luo Xingchen feel exactly the same as Hua Lingluo’s attitude toward Hua Manman?
Hua Lingluo’s heart broke even more. Unfortunately, he had promised his sister he wouldn’t lose his temper at Luo Xingchen. So he couldn’t.
He held it in. He endured. It was agony. Excruciating. But he simply couldn't let it out!
No, he had to vent. He couldn't keep it bottled up! If he couldn’t lash out at Luo Xingchen, then he’d vent his anger elsewhere!
Not waiting for Luo Xingchen to speak, Hua Lingluo, still seething, suddenly fixed his gaze on Fang Wuhen, the Third Elder of the Hidden Night Holy Land.
“You wretch! My sister has already announced that our Warm Fragrance Pavilion is allied with the Supreme Qi Induction Sect, and yet you still dare to attack them? Clearly, you have no respect for us at all!”
Bang! As he spoke, Hua Lingluo landed a solid punch on Fang Wuhen.
Confronted with the terrifying might of someone at the peak of the Tribulation Crossing Realm, Fang Wuhen, who had only recently broken through to the early stage of that same realm, was utterly defenseless.
He was sent flying with a single blow.
His body was hurled high into the air, and before he even hit the ground, blood gushed from his mouth as if it were limitless.
By the time he crashed down after a long arc, his aura was so weak that he seemed on the verge of death at any moment.
Inside, Fang Wuhen was beside himself with grievance.
Damn it! When I led my people to attack the Supreme Qi Induction Sect, your sister hadn’t even announced the alliance yet! Besides, I wasn’t the only one about to attack—there’s the First and Second Elders as well! Why don’t you hit them?
And it’s not just our Hidden Night Holy Land—other factions are here too. Why don’t you hit them?
Why single me out!?
He was filled with frustration and indignation.
Hua Lingluo, on the other hand, felt a bit better after landing that punch.
Yi Han, the First Elder of Hidden Night Holy Land, now wore a thoroughly dark expression. He had already contacted the Holy Master, who was on the way.
At this point, he felt no more fear toward the other side.
“Pavilion Master Hua, you’ve gone too far!” Yi Han said coldly.
After venting some anger with that punch, Hua Lingluo was still far from satisfied. In fact, he was like a firecracker—one spark would set him off, and once lit, he’d explode!
Upon hearing Yi Han’s words, his expression darkened further.
“Elder Yi Han, how have I gone too far?”
“Our Warm Fragrance Pavilion is considered a major power in the Northern Xuan Province, wouldn’t you say?”
“My sister has already announced our alliance with the Supreme Qi Induction Sect. Under such circumstances, your Hidden Night Holy Land people still want to attack them. Clearly, you hold our Warm Fragrance Pavilion in no regard!”
“As the Pavilion Master, isn’t it perfectly reasonable for me to teach a lesson to those among you with eyes above their heads and no respect for others?”
“Elder Yi Han, please explain to me—what exactly do you mean by ‘too far’?”
“Come on, explain it to me. I’m listening. Tell me, what the hell does ‘too far’ even mean?!”
Hua Lingluo rattled off these words in rapid succession, venting his anger once more.
Yi Han was so furious he couldn’t speak, his whole body trembling.
He had never in his life encountered someone so shameless.
Especially since he would never have imagined that the dignified Pavilion Master of the Warm Fragrance Pavilion could be such a brazen fellow.
Many onlookers shared this thought, feeling that the Pavilion Master was not at all what they had expected.
Much like Luo Twelve and the others, who had just been arguing moments before.
Only Luo Xingchen watched Hua Lingluo with admiration, thinking the young man had finally shown a glimmer of his own spirit.
“Pavilion Master Hua!” After finally calming himself a little, Yi Han spoke with a stern face. “Given the situation, I’ll speak plainly. Your Warm Fragrance Pavilion’s intentions couldn’t be clearer, even to my toes! You’re only pretending to ally with the Supreme Qi Induction Sect so you can devour them from within—a soft approach after the hard one fails.”
Some among the crowd looked enlightened upon hearing this.
But Luo Twelve remained unperturbed. With the ancestral master present, he had nothing to fear.
Yi Han’s words, however, ignited a fresh wave of fury in Hua Lingluo.
“Who are you calling soft!? You dare call me soft? Courting death!”
Furious, Hua Lingluo attacked Yi Han on the spot!
