Chapter 201: Return of the Leung's

It was a struggle to keep Loa under control while in the city but somehow Haru managed to keep him from attacking anyone else. He didn't know beforehand but it was a hassle to walk around with Lao, Lao's looks were rather feminine so he got approached by both men and women who wanted to talk to him.

Haru on the other hand was trying to guide Lao around with minimal stress so he grabbed his arm and pulled him around most of the time which only added more problems. Not only were people trying to approach Lao but now they were looking at Haru as well.

After they had sat down and eaten he decided it would be best to get a taxi home instead of walking and only gathering more attention. So he called a taxi for the both of them while he waited for Lao to finish in the bathroom.

Lao complained about not knowing how to use a toilet but that was one thing that Haru swore he would never help him with. He described how it functioned as best as he could and then waited outside for him.

A few minutes went by before a car horn beeped and headlights flashed in the parking lot outside.

"Lao, Hurry up. The taxi is here." Haru knocked on the door to the bathroom but got no reply. He then opened the door to make sure that Lao could hear him. But just as he was about to shout for him he noticed Lao was standing in the corner next to the sink.

"What are you doing? Hurry up." Haru asked Lao who seemed to be looking down at something.

"I can't right now… Just leave me I will be out in a minute" Lao said suspiciously as he fiddled with something in his hand.

"Listen, We don't have time for this. Hurry up…" Haru said before looking down to a shallow stream of water pooling at his feet and flowing from where Lao was standing.

"Ew, you're disgusting," Haru said as he looked down at the liquid flowing from Lao feet.

"Just hurry up and meet me outside. I will go tell the driver to wait." Haru stated, disgusted by what he had just seen. He didn't know what to think about it but for all, he knew maybe it was normal for dragons to urinate all over themselves.

Haru walked outside into the parking lot to see that the car that had beeped its horn wasn't the taxi. He looked at it for a few moments before seeing five people through the window. Two of them were sitting in the front and the other 3 were sitting in the back. But that wasn't what caught Haru's eye.

It was the fact that all of them were wearing jackets with the hoods over their heads and were laughing at something.

One of them looked directly at Haru just before the sounds of tires screeching sounded out and he felt something impact him from the side followed by the sounds of metal scraping the ground and the blaring of a car horn.

"The fuck?" Haru said aloud before turning to see that a car had driven on to the sidewalk and hit him. Luckily for him, the car was going under forty miles per hour and didn't carry enough force to move him let alone injure him.

Haru looked at the car that had stopped like it had hit a brick wall as it made contact with him and saw that there were five people in that car too.

Both the driver and passenger were bleeding from their faces as their heads hit the dashboard. They must have expected that they would have carried on driving. But the sudden stop caused them all to be injured by their plan.

Haru stood there for a few moments as he tried to piece things together in his mind.

'Just who did I piss off this time? They were clearly targeting me… I think whoever planned this seriously underestimated me. So it shouldn't be anything too personal. I think…' Haru was at a loss for words.

He didn't have the slightest clue who would have planned something like this. But whoever did would surely pay for it in blood. Haru looked up at the car that was still sitting in the parking lot where all five of them were all looking at him in shock.

The door to the car that had just stuck Haru popped open and the sound of footsteps could be heard stumbling before a teenage boy, no older than seventeen fell to the ground with blood covering his face.

"Perfect, I can get some answers now," Haru said as a crowd began to form and film what was going on. Haru made sure to keep his back to the crowd of people filming so they wouldn't see his face and then grabbed the boy by his arm as Lao stepped through the crowd, covered in water.

"What's happening?" Lao asked Haru but got no reply.

"We're leaving. Follow me." Haru said without even looking back and then began to float up into the air before flying away as fast as he could while still holding the boy by his arm.

Lao looked at everyone with their phones pointed at Haru before pulling the hood of his jacket back over his head and joining him in the sky, matching his pace with ease.

They flew for a few minutes before Haru spotted a construction site in the distance where a new building was being built. After reincarnating and watching movies as a kid there was always one thing that he wanted to do.

And he planned to do that now. He flew over to the top floor of the unfinished skyscraper and dropped the boy on to the roof before floating down gently on his own. He wanted to make sure the boy was scared enough that he would answer all of the questions that Haru had for him.

Lao landed next to Haru a few seconds later and stayed quiet. After all, Haru had told him to ignore anything that people did.

The boy looked up at them both with blood still covering his face as he faded in and out of consciousness before suddenly he was brought back around by Haru squeezing the sides of his neck with his fingers and showing him the edge of the rooftop.

"Get off me! It wasn't my fault!" The boy shouted before thrashing his legs a little bit in panic unaware of the situation he was in.

"Are you sure you want to move so much?" Haru asked. The boy took a minute to assess his surroundings and noticed that he was on the edge of a rooftop, looking down at a busy intersection below them.

"B-but… How did I get here! I was just…" The boy strained his neck to look at Haru.

"You… You should be dead! I hit you with my car! How are you!?" The boy asked before Haru kicked his legs and held him out with one arm over the edge of the cliff.

"AHHH!! WHAT ARE YOU!!" He yelled as he thought that his death was going to follow when the ground vanished beneath him.

"I don't want to make this long. Tell me who sent you and I will let you go. If you don't tell me I will drop you." Haru said, frustrated by what had just happened.

Not only did he find out that someone wanted him dead, But he also just exposed himself in front of a bunch of people. He just hoped that none of them captured his face. He wouldn't be able to go back to university if they did and it would also cause him trouble in day to day life if everyone knew he was a cultivator. He would become an instant celebrity.

"Okay! I will tell you! Please just don't drop me!!!" The boy shouted.

Haru was surprised. Usually, people in the business of assassination were a lot more resilient to threats like this. Haru was well prepared to throw him over the edge and catch him to give him a taste of what it's like to die. But this was so much better than expected.

"Okay then…" Haru brought the boy back over from the edge and put him down on the rooftop. As soon as he let go the boy dropped down to the ground and began to kiss it.

"Oh thank god!! I hate heights so much!" He said while worshipping the stable foundation beneath him.

"Urm… Are you going to tell me who sent you or are you going to leave me guessing?" Haru asked, reminding him that he was still in a dangerous situation.

"Sorry! I'm sorry! It was a man named Leung Li! He hired my friends and me to teach you a lesson for putting his cousin in hospital but the leader of our gang wanted to please him so he planned to put you in hospital.

Please! You have to believe me! It's not my fault sir! Please don't kill me!" The boy shouted and begged Haru.

"Leung, you say? Hm…" Haru looked down at the boy with a face that said he was contemplating something. And the boy looked back with fear. To him, it looked like he was deciding if he should let him live or not.

"Okay, Well don't do it again. Or something like that. Go get a real job and don't join gangs." Haru said casually before walking over to Lao.

"Can you take us home?" He asked.

"Home? You're letting him live?" Lao asked.

"Yeah, he is just a dumb kid. I'm not going to take it too personally. I will just go and visit the one who sent him later." Haru said and as soon as he did. Lao placed his hand on his shoulder and they vanished into thin air. Leaving the boy stranded on the roof for the construction team to find him in the morning.
