Chapter 399 - Retorting the Seniors

“Junior Han, what is the meaning of this?” one of the girls demanded.

“It’s exactly as I said. Goodbye.” Han Wu waved his hands, and two slaves stepped forward to escort the trio away.

The other girl shoved the slaves to the ground. “Han Wu, I’m trying to preserve your reputation by calling you junior. Don’t get cocky!”

Han Wu gestured for the slaves to back away. “I don’t need you to preserve my reputation. One must uphold it themself. Also, it can be lost through one’s own shameless actions, just like what you are doing now.”

“Who are you calling shameless?” the two girls shrieked in unison.

They had always seen themselves as fairies above everyone else and had never before faced an insult.

Meanwhile, Wei En’s face tightened with displeasure. The two girls were her club mates, and Han Wu was blatantly insulting them. She interpreted his behavior as provocation.

“Junior Han, I will not ignore your words. You must give me a proper explanation, or I will not let you go!” Wei En’s words emboldened the two girls, who flaunted their arrogance and waited for Han Wu to apologize.

Han Wu sniggered. “What’s wrong? Can’t get it by begging, and now you’re trying to rob me?”

“Bullshit. Who’s begging for anything? How could we do something so shameless?” one of the girls barked.

Han Wu snickered. “Are you sure? Who told me to give each of you a lesser golem? We’ve only just met, and you already expect me to hand over such a precious gift? How shameless can you get?”

“You are a man. What’s wrong with giving us things? Besides, those were supposed to be apology gifts. Ten minutes of our time are very precious,” she argued.

Han Wu’s grin widened. “I should give you gifts just because I’m a man? What kind of logic is that? Do you think I have never seen a girl before? And why should I apologize to you? You didn’t even inform me in advance before coming here. Shouldn’t you be the ones apologizing?”

The trio attempted to gaslight and guilt-trip him.

“

Haiya,

you are already an adult man,” one of them said. “Stop nitpicking us girls and try to be more courteous. It’s not as if you’ll die just from making a small sacrifice for us.”

Han Wu rolled his eyes. “Sure, I won’t die, but I will feel disgusted. What’s so good about any of you? Honestly, there’s barely any difference between men and women, no?”

He stared at the trio pointedly.

“You lecherous bastard! Shameful brat! Once I get back to the college, I will spread the news of how you insulted and belittled us. Every single girl there will know your true face!” one of the girls shouted hysterically.

The other pointed at Qin Shuang. “Junior Qin Shuang, now do you see him for what he really is? He’s a despicable, bastard wolf in sheep’s clothing. He doesn’t deserve your love. Leave him now, and we of the Saintess Club will help you find a better man.”

Qin Shuang shook her head. “Seniors, please do not accuse someone without proof. Han Wu may speak a little aggressively, but he hasn’t insulted you to the point of verbal abuse.”

“Junior Qin, he must have fooled you. We are all girls here and wouldn’t lie to you. He’s definitely unreliable. You have to trust us.” One of them reached out, trying to pull Qin Shuang toward them.

Han Wu reacted instantly and slapped her hand away. “Keep your filthy hands to yourself.”

The girl was infuriated. She looked every bit the unbearable girl scolding someone in public as she shouted, “You dirty bastard. How dare you touch me in public and even slap my hand away? What kind of man are you?”

The other girl snapped, “Don’t think you can touch us just because you’re a man. You’ve picked the wrong people to mess with today. Junior Qin, if you are truly a woman, you should be standing with us. Don’t let him fool you.”

Qin Shuang shook her head adamantly, her anger rising. “Seniors, if you keep accusing Han Wu of things he didn’t do, then I’ll be angry too.”

“Qin Shuang, how could you forgo the bonds of our womanhood for one man’s sake? You are one of those foolish women that would let the man sell you and still help him count the money.”

Han Wu’s expression darkened at her words. He had no desire to continue arguing with them and brandished his weapon. “If your goal today is to disgust me, then congratulations. Now leave. Get out of my place.”

Wei En frowned. “I hate it when someone points their weapon at me. Junior Han, hand us the lesser golems, and I might forgive you.”

Han Wu scoffed. “I hate letting people like you walk away. Kill your clone here, and I will consider carving a nice gravestone for you.”

Furious at his provocation, Wei En lunged with her own weapon. Han Wu countered immediately without hesitation. Both were inhabiting their clones and had roughly equal total stats, so it was hard to predict the winner.

Wei En decided to reveal her full strength and activated her powerful Divine Power: Martial Goddess. In that instant, a halo of golden light enveloped her, and she exuded a crushing pressure.

Han Wu felt the incoming force and immediately summoned his 5-Star God armor set, Abyss, to protect himself. He also activated his True Demon King Transformation, and his body swelled to ten times its normal size.

Gripping his 6-Star God weapon, Ju Que, he channeled Wind Energy through his Swordwind Arms and summoned a razor-sharp wind blade that was 100 meters long.

Wei En stared in disbelief. She didn’t even possess 5- or 6-Star God equipment, yet Han Wu was blatantly wielding them. That was when she realized that he must have obtained a golden chest.

A surge of envy erupted deep within her mind.

How can he get a golden chest, and I can’t? Is it because he’s a man and I’m a woman? This is unfair!

Her envy intensified and heavily influenced her Martial Goddess. It started transforming into another Divine Power that the Saintess Club’s members called Asuri. The golden light enveloping her body now shimmered with purple flower engravings, each new blossom amplifying her strength.

Han Wu wouldn’t wait for her transformation to finish and swung Ju Que down with a sharp cry. “Steelcutter!”

The huge wind blade cleaved Wei En’s transforming body clean in half, and yet she didn’t die. Her two halves began to slowly knit themselves back together.

The other two girls froze in horror at Han Wu’s display of strength. Each grabbed one half of Wei En’s body and fled, moving with such speed, it seemed they had rehearsed it numerous times.

Han Wu abandoned the pursuit as they were far too fast. Evidently, they had pulled this move many times before.
