Last year during the Rakshasa Festival, after the disturbance in Tongling had ceased, Zhan Taiqing requested the Hou Clan send aid to continue the assault on Xuzhou. At that time, Zhan Taiqing was the one in need of him, so Hou Yuxiao just waited calmly for her to offer the Hou Clan a good deal, yet Zhan Taiqing responded with a slap to his face.
This time, he merely didn't visit her first upon arriving at Huilong Pass, and this woman, without saying a word, gave him another slap-- the second one now!
Though the expression on Hou Yuxiao's face was one of sincere fright at this moment, his heart was filled with coldness.
This woman, she really doesn't take him seriously at all!
Since the Hou Clan was part of the Demon Path, Hou Yuxiao's heart truly adhered to the law of the jungle, the survival of the fittest. From the earliest Zhaoyang Disturbance, through Tongling, Wanyang County, and a series of events in Hexi, it wasn't the first or second time he had bowed his head.
