Chapter 20 - Anger

The next morning.

During the Wang Family's collective training, Wang Tao and Wang Hao's absence became the first example of the group training in the past ten years.

Moreover, it just so happens to be our Commander Wang's rotating teaching.

"Humph, these two brats are too daring, do they have any clan rules in their eyes?"

Wang Jingshan flew into a rage on the spot, and asked everyone: "Does anyone know where these two went?"

"Reporting to the commander, Wang Tao did not come back last night, did something happen?"

Although he did not know what Wang Tao went out for last night, even Wang Hao had not appeared. Just by thinking about it, he knew that there was a connection between the two of them.

If something were to happen to the two of them, Wang Yu didn't dare imagine what would happen to the Wang family.

"What?"

Wang Jingshan glared and asked forcibly, "Wang Tao, that brat actually dares to not return at night. Then, what about Wang Hao, did he also get taken out by Wang Tao?"

When he thought about the conflict between Wang Tao and himself, Wang Jingshan had a bad premonition. He was afraid that Wang Tao would use any means at his disposal to take revenge against Wang Hao.

He was afraid that the Fourth Elder would secretly take care of Wang Hao. With Wang Hao's talent, growing up would definitely threaten Wang Yi's position in the Wang family.

"I'm not sure about this Wang Hao thing!" Wang Yu said while trembling.

However, it was obvious that many people did not believe him because of the conflict between Wang Tao and himself and because he, Wang Yu, was Wang Tao's follower. Now that neither of them had come to the collective training, everyone could guess the reason why.

"You two train yourselves first, I will go to Wang Hao's room to take a look!" Wang Jingshan was worried, and did not dare to delay for even a moment.

The layout of Wang Hao's room was simple, it was obvious at a glance. Wang Jingshan ran quickly and arrived, so naturally he did not see the figure, but he did discover the slip of paper that appeared under his pillow. When he took it out and took a look, his expression immediately changed, and he ran to the Patriarch as fast as possible.

"Damn it, this damned Wang Tao, he is truly bold! Mount Jing, gather all the guards and search inside the town while the rest of them head towards the forest outside the town!"

When Wang Liancheng saw the contents of the paper slip, he immediately scolded angrily and then ordered Wang Jingshan to send people to look for it.

"Yes sir!" Wang Jingshan left after hearing that, as it was related to Wang Hao's safety, Wang Jingshan was more anxious than anyone else.

Wang Liancheng did not go out with them. He was not sure if something was wrong right now, but a Patriarch like him ran out to find someone.

However, Wang Liancheng was not anxious at all. Instead, he went to find the Fourth Elder in a fluster and scolded him, leaving behind some severe warnings.

"Fourth Elder, look at your good nephew. Let me tell you, if anything happens to Wang Hao, even if he dies, nothing bad can happen to him, he is the hope of our Wang Family, so long as Wang Hao is injured, I will kill him for sure. If I find out, you will die a horrible death, even if Wang Yi reaches the Innate Realm, I will not be able to protect you."

It was not Wang Liancheng's fault for being so nervous, as only the three of them knew how high Wang Hao's talent was. It could be said that, to the Wang Family, Wang Hao's importance was above his as a Patriarch.

As the Patriarch, Wang Liancheng naturally knew what the four elders were thinking. Wang Hao's talent was bound to be feared and he was a threat to Wang Yi's position.

Therefore, there was a high chance that the Fourth Elder would borrow Wang Tao's power to deal with Wang Hao, or even eliminate him.

Wang Liancheng had to be on guard, he was extremely regretful now. If he had known earlier, he would have warned the Fourth Elder on the day of the announcement, but who would have thought that something like this would happen in just a few days?

The Fourth Elder was scolded to the point that he was stupefied. He never thought that Wang Tao would be so audacious.

But then, he thought, looking at Wang Liancheng's figure that was leaving, the Fourth Clan Elder sneered in his heart, "If I let you take Wang Hao seriously, after he dies, there will be no one that can threaten Yi'er's position anymore."

The Wang Family guards reacted quickly, when Wang Liancheng finished instructing the Fourth Elder and returned back to his own house, there were people reporting everything.

Unfortunately, it was not good news.

There were no traces of Wang Tao and Wang Hao in the Luoyang Town, but they did know that there were people missing from other families. First, the Zhou and Zhao Families discovered someone missing during their training in the morning.

Then, when the other families heard the news that the three molesters had disappeared, they quickly checked the people in their families who were often mixed up with the three molesters.

In the end, there was no exception. Within the ten clans such as the Four Small Families, there was one person missing, and all of them were the top disciples of the younger generation.

Luo Yang, San Mo and his bunch of dog friends, a total of thirteen people, plus Wang Hao, these fourteen people.

In one night, the group disappeared, and the people disappeared.

An hour later, Wang Jingshan joined the other families of the missing and carefully searched the small forest outside of the town.

In the end, they only found some traces of fighting and bloodstains. However, they didn't find any shadow of a person or any hair at all.

Not a living person, not a corpse.

The only possibility was that everyone had fallen into the abyss, because near the abyss, there were many traces of blood and fighting.

Bang!

In the elders' meeting, Wang Liancheng smashed the table in front of the Fourth Elder with a palm strike, pointed at the Fourth Elder's nose, and cursed angrily:

"You f * cking still have the face to sit here, Wang Hao is missing, and was forced out by that beast Wang Tao to disappear, you damned thing, and allowed your nephew to cause trouble, normally everyone would just shut their eyes, but now you actually dare to scheme against Wang Hao, do you know how gifted Wang Hao is, do you really think that he will publicly reveal that little bit of talent?"

"This daddy will tell you right now, he's eleven years old and his Body refining fifth level is at the fifth layer! "Not only at the fourth stage, but the sixth stage, not the third stage. Do you understand what this means? Do you understand?"

Wang Liancheng was furious, his eyes blazing with fire as he roared at the Fourth Elder, almost to the point of swallowing it whole.

All the elders present were silent, not daring to make a sound.

When they heard Wang Hao's "true" cultivation, all of them stood up in shock.

Then, without any exception, everyone looked at the fourth elder with unfriendly eyes. If the patriarch had not been cursing, they would not have been stingy with their saliva. Each of them would have drowned the fourth elder to death.

Clan leader, please calm your anger, Wang Hao's cultivation is not low, my nephew and the rest might not be able to do anything to him, maybe they just ran far away, and returned by themselves.

The Fourth Elder was also frightened to the point that he had no way to refute it. He could only dream about it, trembling in fear as he spoke.

At this moment, although he wished that Wang Hao was dead in his heart, he could not show it on his face.

Just then, Wang Jingshan rushed into the palace.

In an emergency, he could no longer bother with etiquette. Moreover, with his status and strength, under the Patriarch's permission, the other elders would not blame him.

"Jingshan, how is the rope preparation going?"

Wang Liancheng let go of the Fourth Elder for the moment and asked Wang Jingshan.

"I'll have someone connect the existing rope. It's about 300 feet now, so we can send someone down to take a look first. If it's not enough, we can connect." Wang Jingshan said.

"Alright, let's go immediately!"

Wang Liancheng ordered, then looked coldly at the Fourth Elder, "Fourth Elder, I'll leave it up to you to take credit for your crimes, you can look for someone else!"
