The poorest rich man novel (Chen Hao)

Chapter 758 The Third Tier Cultivator, Xiao Cangsheng

“May I know who you are?” asked Chen Hao. He couldn’t help staring at the man when he looked up

and saw the latter’s wicked expression.

The man emanated the aura of a cultivator, and his cultivation base appeared to be much higher than

Lin Jiu, prompting Chen Hao to pay him some attention.

In fact, Chen Hao had sensed a cultivator’s presence nearby as soon as he left the Wan Family’s

premise, but he decided to keep silent as long as the man did not show himself. After all, many

cultivators were joining the Underground Ceremony, and this man might simply be one of them.

It was only until just now when the man released his vital energy to lure Chen Hao over that Chen Hao

decided to find out what the man had up his sleeve.

“Hahahaha… Little did I expect to find such a gifted young lad today. You’re much stronger than that Li

Shaozong. Luck must be on my side!”

Instead of answering Chen Hao’s question, the elder laughed incessantly.

His laughter frustrated Chen Hao, who asked as he began to lose his patience, “Who are you exactly?”

“Hahahaha… My daunting voice could quake the Earth. Listen carefully, young lad, before you die. I’m

Xiao Cangsheng, the cultivator who quakes the Earth with my laughter! Hahaha…” The elder

introduced himself before raising his head and laughing again, but this time, his laughter stirred up

billows of dust that rolled around them at once.

“Sorry, but I don’t know you,” replied Chen Hao while shaking his head.

“Hmm?” Xiao Cangsheng finally stopped laughing and glared at Chen Hao with an angry face. “Well,

young lad, you sure are bolder than I took you for. For every single cultivator on Earth—”

Having lost his patience, Chen Hao cut Xiao Cangsheng off before the latter could finish his sentence.

“Alright, that’s enough. Since you said ‘before you die’ just now, do you mean that you lured me over to

kill me?”

Xiao Cangsheng was infuriated by Chen Hao’s proud demeanor; he had always been both deeply

revered and feared by every cultivator whenever they met him, yet this young lad showed him such

blatant disrespect. But never mind, he thought to himself, because this young lad is going to pay the

price very soon.

With that in mind, he held his anger inside him and sneered, “That’s smart of you, though of course, it’s

also foolish of you to stay this composed because of your ignorance regarding the existence in front of

you that is on the level of a demon king. Since you haven’t heard of me, I might as well shed some light

on you before you die shortly! Hahaha…”

With that, he let out a deafening laugh that shook the earth, rupturing the surrounding trees at once

while causing the river to churn turbulently; it was as if an explosion had happened.

“Sh*t, he’s laughing again!” Chen Hao was almost driven mad by the elder’s laughter; if it weren’t for

the intimidating aura emanating from him, Chen Hao might have even assumed that the elder was an

escapee from a psychiatric hospital!

“I, Xiao Cangsheng, have joined the ranks of the cultivators since my early years. I have been

cultivating by feeding on one’s vital energy and lifeblood. It can thus be said that I’m many cultivators’

nightmare, and now I’ll be your nightmare too, of course… Hahaha!” said Xiao Cangsheng while staring

at Chen Hao with a greedy and malicious smile on his face.

“I get it now,” said Chen Hao as he understood it at last. “Since you cultivate by feeding on the vital

energy and lifeblood of others, knowing that many cultivators are joining the Underground Ceremony, I

suppose you must have been lurking in the shadows, then you target cultivators who are alone and

feed on their vital energy and lifeblood. Am I right about that?”

“What a clever boy you are. To be honest, my target was Li Shaozong, not you. But after a while, I

found that your natural gift and the purity of your lifeblood is so extraordinary that he can’t hold a candle

to you. You’re the crème de la crème—my cultivation base shall improve tremendously after I feed on

your vital energy and lifeblood!” Xiao Cangsheng laughed smugly again before continuing, “No worries

though, little boy. I am not a cold-blooded person, so I shall stupefy you with my laughter before feeding

on you. After all, a stupefied man doesn’t feel any pain!”

“Wait a minute—” said Chen Hao immediately.

However, before Chen Hao could finish his sentence, Xiao Cangsheng lifted his head and laughed

suddenly. This time, his laughter was evidently more intense than before. “Hahahaha!!!!”

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The river erupted as if explosives had been planted in advance, while the ground surrounding them

quaked forcefully, ripping the trees apart; the entire forest instantly echoed with Xiao Cangsheng’s

laughter, which would shake anyone’s soul.

After a while, Xiao Cangsheng, who had his arms wide open, ceased laughing contentedly, ready to

feed on the food before him.

In the next second, however, his whole body shook at once.

He had assumed his Roaring Laughter Technique would stupefy the young lad with its ferocity, yet after

their surroundings had fallen dead silent, the young lad was still standing perfectly fine before him with

his hands in his pockets!

“How could you…?” He was in disbelief.

“Please hold your laugh for now, Master Xiao Cangsheng. May I ask—” Chen Hao stared at him

helplessly; he then attempted to voice his question again.

“Hahaha!”

However, Xiao Cangsheng raised his head and laughed again, this time with much stronger intensity

than before.

“This man is f*cking crazy!” Chen Hao was really enraged. Without another word, he casted a spell

between his fingers and flicked it toward Xiao Cangsheng, sending out a fast-moving beam of light that

enveloped Xiao Cangsheng in an instant.

Bam!

Xiao Cangsheng’s laughter was stopped abruptly under the powerful beam of light.

It was already too late when he came to his senses and attempted to ward off the blow. With a loud

bang, the beam of light hit Xiao Cangsheng and shot him down from the tree. After landing on the

ground with a thump, Xiao Cangsheng looked at Chen Hao again, this time with a much more terrified

expression.

“W-What a strong attack!” He was taken aback by Chen Hao’s strength.

In fact, Chen Hao had used merely less than one-thousandth of his strength since he struck for the sole

purpose of interrupting Xiao Cangsheng. He then hastened to stop Xiao Cangsheng from laughing

again by asking curiously, “Please wait a minute. May I know if your constant laughing just now is some

sort of technique similar to the Lion Roar Technique?”

“Yes it is!” Xiao Cangsheng clutched his chest while looking at Chen Hao up and down in fear.

“I see. No wonder you were constantly laughing foolishly like a lunatic. I didn’t realize that you were

trying to stupefy me with your laughter.” Chen Hao nodded his head as though he had understood.

Then, he looked at Xiao Cangsheng again and asked, “By the way, which tier are you in the cultivation

world?”

“I am a Third Tier Cultivator, and I am known as the Laughing Cultivator. Which tier are you in then?”

asked Xiao Cangsheng warily.

The single blow just now was powerful enough to show that the young lad before him was a strong

cultivator, whose skills were not the slightest bit weaker than his. Furthermore, his calm and relaxed

demeanor made Xiao Cangsheng grow more fearful of him.

“I have no idea, to be honest. But since you’re a Third Tier Cultivator, you might as well be one of the

masters within the ranks of the cultivators, aren’t you?” asked Chen Hao curiously.

“M-Might as well be?” Xiao Cangsheng’s heart was thumping wildly at Chen Hao’s words; of course he

was a master within the ranks of the cultivators. Otherwise, why would the Laughing Cultivator be well- Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

known as the other cultivators’ nightmare?

But who was this young man anyway? Xiao Cangsheng couldn’t shake off the feeling that there was

something way off about Chen Hao. Even so, he could never accept the notion of fleeing the scene,

especially since the person in front of him was such a young brat.

Chen Hao was still absorbed in thought about what Lin Jiu had told him of the Third Tier Cultivators

being the most powerful among the cultivators, when Xiao Cangsheng suddenly had his face cloaked

in a veil of darkness and his eyes turned fiery red. In hopes of catching Chen Hao unprepared, Xiao

Cangsheng bellowed and charged immediately toward Chen Hao again…
