Chapter 343: Easy Does It.
Hao Ren stood in the void with his arms crossed before his chest. The old man looked at him with infinite rage contained in his eyes. He raised his arm and punched at Hao Ren. Multiple fist phantoms of red energy were condensed in the void behind him, as the old man said, "Berserker Fist."
The phantoms hit Hao Ren and the impact was hard, it caused a huge shockwave to erupt in the surroundings. Yang raised his arm to protect himself from the impact, however, the impact did not cause Hao Ren to even flinch. The old man looked at Hao Ren in shock, they were in the same realm even if the attack was weak it should have had some sort of an impact.
Hao Ren gestured for the old man to attack once more. In the distance, Elder Tark was watching the scene with a shocked face. He did not expect Hao Ren to be this strong.
The old man in beast clothing took out a machete from his space ring and slashed it at Hao Ren as he yelled, "The butcher's slash."
The slash contained a terrifying slashing intent and the attack hit Hao Ren strongly. The young man took a deep breath as the attack hit his skin. Behind him, even the high stone mountain was split in two. Hao Ren though, he only had a white mark on his face, which also vanished quickly.
The young man looked at the stunned old man and asked, "I know I told you to take three moves in advance, but if this is all that you can do, its not enough and you should buzz off."
The old man clenched his fist and said, "My grandfather fought with those beasts to take this land. I will not give it up easily."
Hao Ren asked, "What about your clan then? In this wilderness if they do not have any elder like you to keep the beasts away, do you think they will survive? Do you think that the way your elders slaughtered the Nagas who did not do anything to them, what for? Because they were strong, I am stronger than you, and so, I am doing the same. Now, leave, or I will not spare any living being in your clan."
The old man felt his butthole clench. Hao Ren's aura had changed from goofy to aloof, and the cold radiating from his voice was real. The old man clenched his fist and said, "Kill me if you can, but my clan will not leave here."
Hao Ren flickered from his position and appeared behind the old man with his hand placed on the shoulder of the old man. He said, "Then go in peace."
Before the old man could react his body began to change into ash. The old man did not even have the time to figure out what was happening to him, before the Phoenix Flames sniffed out life from his body. Hao Ren then said, "Yang, the immortal soul is left for you."
The child opened his mouth wide and sucked in the running Immortal Soul, before he took a deep breath and Hao Ren said, "Go deal with the people in there. Practice your sword, also spare the children if there are any, and also the ones who are willing to surrender."
Yang nodded and took out his saber as he vanished from the spot, and then he appeared on the ground of the city where many people were gathered together. There were two planet shattering realm experts but Yang was not scared. He said, "We do not wish to kill you indiscriminately, we are not animals. I will give you all a chance to protect yourself. You are strong people, surrender to us and you can continue living."
One of the two elders who were standing at the forefront saw how the strongest of them all was killed with ease. He asked, "This youngster, can you tell us where will we live if we move from here?"
Yang thought for a bit and looked at Hao Ren who was floating in the void and after exchanging a few messages back and forth. He said, "If your people are willing to pledge loyalty to us, we will make suitable and arrangements worth your pledge. Your new home might not be as cold as this place. So, I will give you all an the time it takes to burn one joss stick."
Then he held his saber in his hands and stood quietly. He could sense the warmth coming from the central hall in this small city. The place was very well arranged, and he was somewhat surprised as to how this clan that seems to be a variant of barbarians came up with these plans.
After the time was up, Yang asked, "So, elder what have you decided?"
The old man sighed and said, "We don't have much of an option for ourselves."
That said, he asked, "What oath you want us to take?"

Hao Ren relayed the words to Yang and things were settled. Earlier Hao Ren did not use his hypnotism skill because the old man was at the same realm as he was, and Hao Ren was sure that the enemy held a richer experience of life and thus his chances of success were not much.
The oaths were made quickly and Hao Ren counted a total of two hundred people. There were only a dozen children and they belonged to the houses that were very comparatively weaker than the rest of the people.
Hao Ren then looked towards the direction where Tark was standing and said, "It is settled, you can call them all over, I will send these people to the camp."
...
While Hao Ren was acquiring forces, the messenger who was left alive at Han Lingshi's hands arrived the city, and he banged at the metal doors.
Bang! Bang!
"Open the door, I have an important message for the Family Head. Open the fucking door."
He was still scared shitless. As soon as the door opened he dashed through the gap and made a beeline to the Hao Family house.
There were guards on the entrance, all strong, but when they saw the man, they tried to stop him, but the next moment the man moved his hand and yelled, "Fuck off, I will kill whoever stops me from seeing the Family Head."
