Chapter 523
The thought of it caused Haymitch''s tone to turn sour. He looked at Fade and said, "Kid, I didn''t do
anything to you because of Edgar. Don''t be an ungrateful b*stard and try to get more than you
deserve!"
When Edgar heard this, he immediately looked embarrassed. He quickly went over to Haymitch and
began tofort him, "Young Master Haymitch, don''t be angry. This was just an ident and no
one expected for such a thing to happen. Let me tell Fade and everything will be fine."
Edgar''s words gave Haymitch a way to step down and subtly resolve the situation.
"You got lucky!" Haymitch snorted, then turned around to leave, the group of people behind him
following him closely like chicks following a hen.
Seeing this, Edgar could not help but let out a sigh of relief. He turned around and saw Fade who
was ready to chase after him. Immediately, Edgar rushed over to grab him and say, "Don''t be
impulsive. If you offend Haymitch, you won''t end up well either way."
"Offend?" Fade questioned coldly, "I''m not the one offending here. To be clear, he was the one who
almost killed me, was he not? Not even a word of apology, does that mean that I''m supposed to
bow down to him just like that?"
Edgar was at a loss for words and he tried to calm Fade down, "I, I didn''t mean that. It''s just that
Young Master Haymitch is no ordinary person. You can''t win against him."
Fade remarked coldly with determination, "Who knows. If we never try, we''ll never know."
With that, Fade shook free of Edgar''s grasp and walked towards them.
Seeing this, Edgar hurried and caught up with him before admitting, "Fade, I''ll just tell you the truth.
The gap between your status and ours is just too big. We are not of the same level at all. It''s
impossible for you to retaliate here because nothing cane of it."
"Oh really?" Fade sneered, then picked up the bow and arrow which Haymitch had left behind. He
positioned himself and drew the bow and arrow, aiming in the direction which Haymitch and the
others had left.
Upon seeing this, Edgar turned pale with fright and dashed towards Fade.
After all, Haymitch and the others were walking together at this moment. If Fade were to shoot at
any one of them, it would be equally troublesome.
"Fade, don''t be impulsive. Put down the arrow." Edgar yelled in a hurry.
Fade said, "Don''t worry. This was my own idea. It has nothing to do with you, so I won''t get you into
trouble."
With that, Fade stamped his foot and released a st of energy which sent Edgar sprawling on the
ground.
In the interval, Fade narrowed his eyes to aim at Haymitch and the others and released the arrow
towards them.
Instantaneously, the sound of the arrow whizzing in the air could be heard as it shot towards
Haymitch with great momentum.
Haymitch and the others had no idea and were chatting away happily as usual. Suddenly, they
heard a sharp whistling sound behind them, and could not help but turn around curiously.
They witnessed Fade release the arrow in a swift motion, and could only watch as the sharp arrow
headed towards their way. They were all dumbstruck as they witnessed the scene in disbelief.
Then, they tried to escape from the arrow and scampered around like mice, terror filing their gazes.
However, Fade''s arrow was so fast that it was already in front of them in a blink. It glided past
Haymitch''s head urately.
The lingering force of the wind that apanied the arrow was as sharp as a knife. Haymitch could
feel it scraping past his scalp, as though it had peeled away the skin from the top of his head along
with it.
Then, with a loud thump, the sharp arrow was nailed firmly onto a wooden pir on the side of the
road. The gleaming tip of the arrow was no longer seen as it was buried deep into the wood, only a
small bunch of ck hair barely visible.
Seeing this, Haymitch could not help himself but attempt to feel the top of his head just to check if it
was still intact. His head was still in one piece, but he could feel an unusual bald spot on the crown
of his head. His eyes widened as he furiously fished for a mirror. Upon seeing his reflection, he was
in disbelief as he saw that the arrow had cleanly shaved through his beloved hair, leaving what
looked like an ugly gutter behind.
Immediately, Haymitch shuddered in anger and shame. His head pounded from the blood and his
whole body shook feverishly, the mirror in his hand almost falling to the ground.
The rich youngsters around him also came to their senses and they got up from the ground in a
panic one by one. All of them were shocked to see Haymitch''s condition, and soon they began to
reprimand Fade.
"Kid, you''re too bold. How dare you shoot an arrow at Young Master Haymitch?"
"Catch that kid!"
"Get over here, kneel down and apologize to Young Master Haymitch."
Haymitch overheard the seemingly distant roars of anger and barely managed to regain his
composure. His eyes were fuming with anger as he red at Fade. If looks could kill, Fade would
definitely be dead now. Gritting his teeth, he roared, "How dare you shoot an arrow at me?"
Edgar was also scared out of his wits at the moment, and his expression was so ghastly that he
could not speak at all. He got up and hurried over, trying to exin the whole situation to an
enraged Haymitch, "Young Master Haymitch, this -"
But Haymitch did not give him a chance to exin things over. He snapped coldly, "Shut up. He
must give me an exnation for this..."
Edgar''s face darkened and he shot a look at Fade, motioning for him toe over and apologize.
However, Fadepletely ignored Edgar''s gesture. Holding the bow and arrow, he ambled over
slowly. As he turned to look at the arrow on the wooden pir, he looked somewhat disappointed as
hemented snarkily, "Oh, what a pity. I missed my target. It seems that I have to practice my
skills more in the future!"
Hearing Fade''s words, Haymitch looked even more exasperated. He shouted angrily, "Fade Chen,
you''d better give a good exnation for this. Otherwise, you''re finished."
Instead, Fade looked at Haymitch with a puzzled look and said, "Exin? What exnation do you
need?"
"How dare you shoot an arrow at me?" Haymitch snarled coldly.

Fade said, "Young Master Haymitch, you''ve misunderstood. I didn''t mean to shoot you, but I saw a
fly flying above your head. I was aiming for it, but I didn''t expect that I''d miss the shot because of
my subservient archery skills."
His visiblyme exnation managed to provoke Haymitch perfectly. He red at Fade and said,
"You -"
The rich youngsters around him also started to shout angrily at Fade.
"Fade, you obviously shot an arrow at Young Master Haymitch from behind. How dare you try to talk
your way out cleverly?"
"You ungrateful b*stard! Kneel down and admit your mistakes right now!"
"Young Master Haymitch, call the police to arrest him and lock him up for a few years."
Seeing this, Fade fished for some money in his pocket with a polite smile and said, "As I''ve said, I
wasn''t shooting at you, Young Master Haymitch. However, my archery skills certainly needed more
practice, and there were indeed risks involved. Therefore, I''ll give this money to you as
compensation, Young Master Haymitch."
Haymitch looked at the small change scattered in Fade''s hand, which amounted to less than 100
yuan. He was so angry that his eyes almost popped out from their sockets as he gritted his teeth
and said, "Fade Chen, you''re messing with me, aren''t you! You''re dead meat."
Fade tut-tutted and said, "Look, I''ve alreadypensated you, but you''re the one who doesn''t want
to ept the payment. It''s none of my business here already."
Adding on to his words, Fade''s tone was solemn as he said to Haymitch, "Besides, aren''t you fine
anyways? If you continue to make a fuss, you''ll be taking advantage of the situation and getting
more than you deserve!"
Fade had managed to perfectly return what they had just said to him.
His words irritated Haymitch a lot. Haymitch could no longer hold himself back as he shouted, "Beat
him up, beat him up hard, I want him dead."
In an instant, the group of rich young men charged at Fade and were going to encircle and attack
him together.
