Chapter Seventy: The Frustrated Bohu

  "Exactly! It's you, Master Shibo." The white-haired old man had a completely serious expression, without any hint of pretence.

  The bizarre scene made everyone present feel like their brains were unable to think quickly enough, and Bo Hu was shocked to walk forward and shout: "Father! Why did you call this little boy Shifu Zu?"

  "Nonsense! He is my uncle's master. You'd better behave yourself and never be disrespectful to your uncle's master." The white-haired old man glared at Bo Hu fiercely, his eyes flashing with sharp gaze.

  These words finally made the swordsmen present understand the identity of this white-haired old man, who was the former head of the Shimida family and the father of the current head, Bohu, as well as the current elder, Tuo Ka!

  After being scolded by Toka, Bogu's eyes were extremely shocked. He couldn't understand why the young man in front of him, who wasn't even a sword master, had suddenly become his father's uncle and ancestor, with a seniority that surpassed his own by four generations!

  His head was a bit dizzy, and Bo suddenly realized that his brain wasn't enough to think about it. He pressed the temple and took a deep breath before continuing to ask: "Father, you're not mistaken, are you? Is this kid really your master's uncle?"

  "Nonsense! How could Master Bei be wrong?" Toka glared at Bohu fiercely.

  Everyone was stunned and wondered how another Shifu had appeared.

  The sea and sky were also dizzy, just now it was still the enemy of the Sumida family, but suddenly the generation gap had shrunk so much: "Who is Shibo?"

  "It's me!" The voice had barely fallen when a familiar sound came from behind Toka.

  Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and found that its owner was unexpectedly Wei He, who had just followed Tuo Ka over.

  "What's going on here? How did I suddenly become his great aunt?" Hai Tian was full of doubts, and it seemed that only Wei He could clear things up.

  Wei He smiled and said, "Master uncle, didn't I tell you? I know the real person in power of the Xumi Da family, that is Tuoka. He's my junior! In terms of generation, you should be called Master Uncle Ancestor."

  After hearing this, Hai Tian finally understood. He didn't expect that Toka was actually the disciple of Lao Gui's grandson. He remembered that Lao Gui only had two disciples, one was Wei He whom he had heard of, and the other he hadn't heard of before.

  It's even more unnecessary to mention his descendant, and it's no wonder he doesn't know Toka.

  It was just that the object of being surrounded and eliminated had suddenly become a high-ranking Shifu, which made Haitian feel somewhat unaccustomed. However, he understood in his heart that they were now completely safe.

  "What's going on here?! Bao Hu! You come and explain, why are there so many people surrounding Shifu Zu?" Toka saw the numerous guards from the Xiumida family surrounding Haitian and the others, and immediately loudly shouted.

  In the Xumi Da family, although Tuo Ka often closed himself off and handed over all family matters to Bo Hu for handling, as a true emperor, when he spoke, Bo Hu did not dare not listen.

  Facing Toka's inquiry, Bogu's smile had long since disappeared from his face, replaced by a look of embarrassment. He really didn't know how to explain himself, and he certainly couldn't tell Toka that he was planning to kill his own Taishifu ancestor.

  Just thinking about this terrifying generation gap, Bo Hu's head spun and his heart felt stifled.

  Jian Bo Hu remained silent, and Tuo Ka's face looked increasingly ugly.

  It turned out that Haitian suddenly smiled and said, "Toka, don't blame Bogu, he's still young and doesn't understand things. Bringing so many people to surround us is mainly to test the combat effectiveness of my brothers. Bogu, isn't that right?"

  "Is that really so?" Toka asked with a skeptical tone, his experience not hard to discern the true situation here, just to make the atmosphere no longer awkward, and also happy to let Bo Hu follow Hai Tian's lead.

  "Yes, yes, of course." What else could Bo Hu say after Hai Tian spoke up for himself? He nodded and bowed repeatedly, but what he heard was that Hai Tian said he was young and didn't understand things, which made him even more depressed.

  If it were his father's generation that said so, he could have let it go, but Ha Tian was just a young man who looked even younger than him, which made him feel extremely awkward.

  But he didn't dare refute it now, and had to swallow all the depression into his stomach, not to mention how uncomfortable it was.

  The swordsmen around also saw Bo Hu's stiff face, their stomachs ached with laughter, but they all endured. They didn't have Hai Tian's high status after all.

  The atmosphere on the scene became extremely strange, and Wei He was the first to break the deadlock: "Master, you must be tired from that intense battle just now. Why don't we take a rest?"

  "Ah, ah, ah, Master Shifu, you've come to our Mieda family, it's our honor. You must stay here for a while, let me play the host properly." Taka immediately came to his senses and hastily tried to curry favor.

  "It's possible, but these brothers of mine..." Hai Tian hesitated for a moment.

  Tuo Ka immediately replied, "No problem, I'll let them all move in. Our Midah family has plenty of houses anyway. Even if there are twice as many people, they can still be accommodated. Bo Hu, this matter is now entrusted to you. You must arrange everything well for the brothers of our Shifu's uncle and satisfy all their requirements."

  "Father..." Bo Hu called out in a wronged tone. If it were Hai Tian, that would be one thing, but it was actually Ba Lu and the others. He had just been their enemy, and now he was supposed to become their babysitter. The frustration in his heart could be imagined.

  "What are you still doing standing there? Hurry up and go!" Toka shouted with her eyes wide open.

  The cold shout scared Bo Hu into lowering his head and leaving. In the entire Wushan province, Bo Hu was known as a "smiling tiger", always wearing a faint smile on his face, but today, or perhaps for a while afterwards, his smile would probably never appear again.

  Who said this was Toka's order? You know, Toka is not only his father but also the great elder of the Shumi family with the right to appoint the head of the clan. More importantly, Toka is also the first strongman of the Shumi family and one of the two strongest in the Wushan province, along with Tansen of Jianlan Sect, known as the Jiuxing Sword Emperor!

  "Thanks for arranging this, Toka," Haitian said with a polite smile.

  "It's nothing, it's what we should do. Master Uncle and Master Aunt, follow me from here, I'll take you to the room." Toka chuckled with a smile, not looking like a strong person at all.

  The strong, that is in relation to the weak.

  Toka faced Haitian and Weihuo, perhaps temporarily becoming the strong, but Toka knew that whether it was their potential or the fierce sword god behind them, they were enough to make him maintain his respect for them.

  Soon, Toka personally arranged rooms for Haitian, Xiaoyu and Weihuo, all of which were the best in the guest house.

  "Master Uncle, Master Bo, and this one..." Toka paused, he really didn't know what to call Xiaoyu. In terms of generation, Xiaoyu was Haitian's younger brother, so Toka should also be called Master Uncle, but this generation was a bit too terrifying. Even Weihuo felt a bit awkward.

  Let them respect the ocean and sky, that's their own will, but to make them equally respectfully address a small rain is a bit too much.

  Haitian also noticed the awkwardness between the two and smiled slightly: "Just call him Xiaoyu, Weihuo, you're the same."

  Upon hearing this, both Toka and Weihuo let out a sigh of relief. Toka continued to smile and said: "The bath water has been prepared, you can now go clean up the dirt on your bodies. Tonight, I will specially prepare a wine feast for Master Shu and Master Bo."

  "Thanks a lot then." To be honest, the continuous battles and killings over the past few days had left Haitian truly exhausted. Moreover, he hadn't taken a bath in a long time, and his clothes were stained with blood and dust, so it was really time for a change.

  "My brothers are all due for a bath, so I'll trouble you with that. Thinking of Baru and the others, Hai Tian's face couldn't help but reveal a hint of comfort. At his most difficult time, Baru and the others had not abandoned him."

  As long as Baru and the others were willing, they could have left at any time, but they all gave up that option. They would rather risk their lives to protect Haitian than give up. This is something that ordinary people can't do.

  After taking a bath, Haitian immediately came to Xiaoyu's room. At this time, Xiaoyu had just finished bathing and was dressing up.

  "Xiao Yu." Hai Tian called out with a smile, this time he was able to safely rescue Xiao Yu, making him feel extremely relieved. His own brother had finally been rescued by himself from the tiger's lair.

  "Brother Tian, you're here? I was just about to go look for you." Xiaoyu's face lit up with joy upon seeing Haitian's arrival. He had thought he would never see Haitian again. The two separations made him miss Haitian even more, otherwise he wouldn't have risked his own life, and even if it meant death, he wanted to be with Haitian together.

  "Ah, Xiao Yu, previously the time was too tight, I didn't have a chance to ask you, how did you end up in Chaoyang Town?" Haitian's heart was eager to know about his family's whereabouts.

  When Hai Tian mentioned this, Xiao Yu did not immediately respond, but slowly lowered her head.

  "Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu, what's wrong?" Hai Tian grasped Xiao Yu's hand and asked anxiously.

  "Brother Tian!" Xiaoyu raised her head, her eyes filled with tears. "Brother Tian, you must definitely rescue my uncle and father!"

  "Xiao Yu, don't worry, I will definitely rescue them. You quickly tell me what's going on?" As for what happened that night, Hai Tian had only heard a little news from several other channels.

  He knew nothing about the real situation. Now that Xiaoyu was here, he could ask her clearly.

  "Brother Tian, not long after you were taken away to Jianlan Mountain, a group of mysterious black-clad men came to our Hai family and wanted us to follow them. Uncle refused, and then a battle broke out. Brother Tian, after receiving the Xuanjie swords you sent, our Hai family's combat strength increased greatly. But that group was too strong, and in an instant they subdued Uncle and threatened us, saying if we didn't follow them, they would kill us all." Xiaoyu said slowly, her eyes welling up with tears.

  "Damn the Jiuxiao Temple!" Haotian clenched his fists tightly, secretly vowing in his heart that one day he would completely destroy the Jiuxiao Temple.

  Right after that, Hai Tian furrowed his brow, why did the Ninth Calamity Hall come to capture them instead of killing them all directly?

  With the power of Jiuxiao Hall, it should be easy to completely eliminate the Hai family, but why didn't they do so and just took them all away?

  With doubts in her mind, Haitian continued to ask: "Xiaoyu, what happened later?"
