Ghost Catching System-Chapter 671 - 670: I am Arrogant, What Can You Do to Me_1

Everyone was stupefied and speechless.

Chu Hao was actually walking on water!

Someone rubbed their eyes in shock, saying, "How, how did he do that?"

The distant college students also rubbed their eyes forcefully, but no matter how hard they rubbed, Chu Hao remained standing on the lake's surface. He didn't fall in.

Wang Junshu frowned and said, "There are fish and shrimp under his feet."

Those with sharp eyes saw that beneath Chu Hao's feet, fish and shrimp were spread out on the lake's surface, acting as stepping stones.

"Do, do all the fish and shrimp here obey his commands?" the crowd exclaimed in shock.

What kind of ability was this? It had never been heard of before. It was too fantastical, yet with the evidence right before their eyes, they couldn't help but believe.

The college students' side immediately exploded with activity. Someone took out their phone to frantically take pictures and record videos.

"Whoa! We've encountered a god!"

"Is this a magic trick? Does Longquan Villa have this performance, too?"

"Quick, take a look at what he looks like."

"Can't capture it; it's too far away."

Chu Hao quickly reached the shore from a hundred meters away and climbed up to the Tinglou Pavilion, where there were many people, each with their eyes wide open.

After Chu Hao came ashore, he swept his gaze over all those present and said to a stunned waiter, "Get a towel. My sister got wet. Send it to her."

The waiter was dumbfounded for three seconds before reacting and hurriedly said, "Yes, sir."

The waiter promptly went to find a towel to bring to Luo Yan, who hadn't yet come ashore.

Chu Hao poured a cup of wine and drank it in one gulp, saying, "What are you looking at me for? Continue with what you were doing."

The scene went silent for a moment, and the crowd felt a mix of complex emotions.

He was Chu Hao. The reality of his presence instilled a sense of dread deep inside everyone, especially after the display of him walking on the lake, which had truly been heart-stirring.

Those who had been clamorous before now shut their mouths. They were not fools; it was one thing to enjoy a bit of verbal frivolity when Chu Hao wasn't around, but with him present, it was best to keep quiet and behave. After all, the man before them was an Inborn Expert, someone who could stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the Taoist Priests.

Chu Hao felt he had aced this round of showing off. Baxia, that fellow, turned out to be useful after all. Being a dragon-turtle of the sea, he had command over all the fish and shrimp in the lake.

Chu Hao saw Wang Junshu and Zhang Chenfeng and said cheerily, "You two, long time no see."

The crowd was surprised. Chu Hao knew the two Taoist Priests?

Chu Hao especially looked at Wang Junshu and exclaimed in surprise, "You actually came out of Fengdu."

Wang Junshu's mouth twitched. Could they not mention that?

Fengdu!

Wasn't that the Ghost City of the Underworld?

Chu Hao turned to Zhang Chenfeng and said, "You're here too? Weren't you taught enough of a lesson last time?"

If looks could kill, Zhang Chenfeng would have slain Chu Hao hundreds of times by now.

The crowd grew even more curious. What exactly had transpired among these three?

Wang Junshu laughed and said, "It seems Young friend Chu has a history with Taoist Priest Zhang."

Zhang Chenfeng gave Wang Junshu a glare, then turning to Chu Hao, he demanded, "Chu Hao, did you really come to this gathering? Let me ask you, did you kill my Taoist senior uncle from Longhu Mountain, Zhang Chengshan?"

There it was, the moment had arrived to denounce Chu Hao.

The crowd was excited, having formed the Censure Alliance over this very issue, unwilling to let Taoism be disrespected.

Chu Hao responded indifferently, "Yes, I killed him."

Upon this declaration, everyone exploded into an uproar. Immediately, someone stood up and shouted angrily, "Chu Hao, you despicable and shameless villain!"

"Chu Hao, you are utterly shameless!" another person added. "How could you dare to ambush such esteemed seniors? You owe us an explanation for this matter!"

"That's right!" someone else affirmed.

At this moment, Zhang Chenfeng had no chance to speak as many people began to run their mouths.

After the crowd had spoken for a while, they noticed that Chu Hao remained very calm, still slowly drinking his wine.

Suddenly, everyone fell silent.

Chu Hao said, "Are you all done?"

The crowd frowned. It had indeed been noisy. Given Chu Hao's imposing presence, everyone had spoken up and then fallen silent almost in unison.

Wang Junshu frowned and said, "You must give an account to Mao Mountain for this matter."

Chu Hao replied, "I killed them, but it was justified. They wanted to join forces against me, and I merely killed them in self-defense. That's my account."

Join forces against him? And he killed them in self-defense? Why doesn't he just claim he can ascend to heaven while he's at it?

"Nonsense! Those seniors are not just anybody. It must have been some despicable and shameless means you used to kill them," someone exclaimed with agitation.

Chu Hao turned to look at this person. This person was neither a disciple of Longhu Mountain nor Mao Mountain. He said coldly, "What's it to you? Are you from Longhu Mountain or Mao Mountain? You talk too much."

That person sneered, "I'm neither from Mao Mountain nor Longhu Mountain, but I am a person of Taoism. You are vile for killing two great masters of Taoism. Where is the dignity of our order!"

Chu Hao replied, "Didn't you hear what I said? Those people wanted to gang up on me, but I killed them in self-defense."

"Where's the evidence?" someone challenged.

Chu Hao put down his wine glass and said, "I have no evidence."

A disciple from Longhu Mountain said, "Without evidence, your claims are nonsense, distorting right and wrong."

Chu Hao responded, "Then where is your evidence for calling me despicable and shameless, accusing me of ambush and foul play?"

At these words, everyone was at a loss for a response.

Someone said, "The words of Senior Su Huansheng are the evidence."

Chu Hao scoffed, "So his words are evidence, but mine are not?"

That person had nothing more to say.

Helplessly, the crowd found Chu Hao's words to be faultless. Yet, they were frustrated with his demeanor; he had obviously killed those men but was acting as if it had nothing to do with him.

Zhang Chenfeng said coldly, "Regardless, you killed them, and you need to give us an explanation."

Chu Hao's expression also turned grim as he said, "What kind of explanation do you want? If I had been the one to die, who would have given me an explanation!"

Zhang Chenfeng snorted, "But you are not dead. You owe us a reason."

By this time, Luo Yan had come ashore. She was drying herself with a towel, but her eyes were fixed on Chu Hao, filled with surprise.

Chu Hao knew this was a Hongmen Banquet, so why did he still come? She couldn't understand.

Chu Hao, with his hands behind his back and a profound gaze, said, "Ridiculous. I did not die because I have the right to live. They tried to frame me and got themselves killed instead. It's because they were weak. That is the reason."

DING... Host arrogantly boasts, obtaining 3,000 Pretentiousness Points.

The expressions of the crowd turned ugly. Chu Hao's words were undeniably true; the Yin and Yang Realm was indeed a place where the strong ruled.

Zhang Chenfeng was utterly infuriated and, pointing at Chu Hao's nose, said, "Don't be too arrogant."

Chu Hao looked tranquil and said indifferently, "I am naturally arrogant. What can you do to me?"

Chu Hao's gaze swept over everyone present, especially Zhang Chenfeng and Wang Junshu. The True Qi within him slowly released, and the oppressive atmosphere instantly intensified.

Some people subconsciously felt a chill. Inborn Experts were rare, and having encountered one today, they realized what true oppression felt like.
