Chapter 29 - They Have Nothing to Do With Me

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Seeing Wu Hao’s change in attitude, everyone looked at each other and felt that their brains were no longer functioning.

‘Wu Hao actually apologized to Ye Xuan?

‘Wu Hao addressed Ye Xuan as Master Ye?

‘Was he hallucinating?’

Whether it was his classmates or the group of lackeys that Wu Hao had brought, everyone was in disbelief. They could not figure out what was going on. How could Wu Hao’s attitude change so much all of a sudden?

Ye Xuan looked at Wu Hao in confusion. “I guess you know Wu Hongniang?”

Wu Hao hurriedly nodded, “Master Ye, I’m one of Miss Wu’s men. I had the honor of seeing you once from afar when Miss Wu met you previously. Later on, I wanted to visit you alone, but Miss Wu said you did not like to be disturbed and did not allow me to do so. I did not expect to see you here, especially under the circumstances like this. This was nothing more than an unpleasant misunderstanding. I’m really sorry. I apologize to you.”

Zhao Feng, Zhou Fei, and the others’ expressions froze again.

Wu Hao apologized again?

What kind of terrifying identity did this Ye Xuan have?

“Then can I leave now?” Ye Xuan nodded and did not intend to continue the conversation with Wu Hao.

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Hao’s entire body trembled violently. Ye Xuan was someone that even Wu Hongniang, a top-notch assassin, respects greatly. Wu Hao would not dare to continue making things difficult for Ye Xuan.

“Master Ye, please do as you please.” Wu Hao bowed. His body bent 90 degrees, but he did not dare stand up straight.

Seeing that Ye Xuan was about to leave, Zhao Feng’s eyes were wide open. At this moment, he felt a burning pain on his face. Only now did he understand, the man from the hotel earlier was indeed Liu Haozhi. Ye Xuan truly has such a terrifying identity.

At this moment, Zhou Fei, lying on the ground, suddenly roared. He looked at Ye Xuan desperately. 

“Ye Xuan, save me! It was wrong of me to target you before. Please speak up and tell Brother Hao to let me go!”

Hearing Zhou Fei’s words, the surrounding students also reacted. It seemed that only Ye Xuan could save all of them now.

“Right, Ye Xuan, quickly tell Brother Hao that this is all a misunderstanding.”

“That’s right. We didn’t do anything at all.”

“Let me go. It has nothing to do with me.”

Ye Xuan glanced at the people who spoke, then looked at Zhou Fei on the ground and said with a smile, “Why should I help you?”

Zhou Fei’s face flushed with excitement, thinking that Ye Xuan was giving him a chance. He hurriedly said, “You are Lin Ruoshi’s man. Ruoshi and I are classmates. You should help me because we are friends.”

“Friends?” Ye Xuan glanced at Zhou Fei and said with a smile, “You didn’t seem to treat me like your friend.”

Saying this, Ye Xuan shook his head and held Lin Ruoshi’s hand. “Ruoshi, let’s go.”

Ye Xuan suddenly stopped at the door. He turned to Wu Hao and said softly, “Feel free to take your revenge. The people here have nothing to do with me.”

With that, he took Lin Ruoshi and left without looking back.

Wu Hao understood what Ye Xuan meant. He immediately turned his head and stared at Zhou Fei darkly, “I was worried that I wouldn’t have the chance to meet Master Ye. I didn’t expect that you bunch of trash would give me this opportunity. Don’t worry. I’ll take care of you one by one and record a video for Master Ye to watch.”

Wu Hao’s sinister words immediately scared everyone until their faces turned pale.

…

At this moment, Ye Xuan had already walked out of the club with Lin Ruoshi. Looking at her, his expression was a little gloomy. “What’s wrong?”

Lin Ruoshi raised her head and looked at Ye Xuan. “I’m sorry. If I knew this would happen, I wouldn’t have come to this reunion.”

Ye Xuan smiled and said, “It’s nothing. I won’t hold it against you.”

Lin Ruoshi pursed her lips. “It’s all because of me that these despicable people gave you a hard time. I feel bad.”

Ye Xuan gently rubbed Lin Ruoshi’s head. “Silly woman, it’s not your fault. Let’s go home!”

The two sat on the Maybach. Ye Xuan sent Lin Ruoshi home but did not go inside her house. Although he had already given her a betrothal gift and Lin Ruoshi was already his fiancée, he is yet to consider himself part of the Lin family.

As soon as Ye Xuan returned to his manor, his phone rang. Wu Hongniang’s voice was heard speaking. 

“Master, there’s an auction tonight. I’ve auctioned the Xiao Huandan. Are you interested in taking a look?”

Ye Xuan shook his head. “What’s so interesting about a pill?”

The Rejuvenation Pill is a pill taken by warriors of the Hidden God Sect. It could assist in their cultivation and was very effective. However, it was not a pill exclusive to the Hidden God Sect alone. Though it was desirable to other cultivators, Ye Xuan was not interested in it.

“Of course, it won’t interest you. I auctioned it to see if there are any other warriors here. I wanted to lure these people out and observe them carefully. I want to choose some people who can be used to serve you.” Wu Hongniang said with a cunning voice.

“Our Sect doesn’t lack warriors. What’s the use of these warriors in the secular world?” Ye Xuan asked disdainfully.

“Master, although our Hidden God Sect is powerful, there are plenty of events in this secular world which makes it tricky for us to send our own warriors. With the help of warriors from this secular world, we will have people who can be mobilized at any time. By then, it will be easier to do things.” Wu Hongniang said faintly.

Ye Xuan thought about it and felt that it made some sense, “Your idea is excellent. Let’s do as you say. I will go and take a look at this auction. Coincidentally, I also need to find some medicinal herbs. We will gather at the Lin family and bring Lin Ruoshi along.”

When Ye Xuan arrived at the Lin family’s residence, Wu Hongniang was already waiting in her car. Lin Ruoshi did not show any surprise when she saw her. She still had a strong impression of the woman.

After getting into the car, Lin Ruoshi asked in confusion, “Ye Xuan, where are we going?”

Ye Xuan smiled and said, “To participate in an auction. President Lin, do you want to become a warrior yourself?”

Lin Ruoshi listened to Ye Xuan’s question, and her expression was slightly dull. Although the Lin family was not very powerful, they knew about the existence of warriors. The Lin family also hoped to train a warrior of their own, just like other prominent families did.

If the Lin family could have their own personal warrior, their status would immediately rise, and they would have some say in Suzhou City.

Lin Ruoshi came back to her senses and asked excitedly, “Ye Xuan, can I become a warrior? My grandfather planned to send my cousin to the warrior academy to practice. Still, they said that girls are not talented, so they didn’t plan to send me.”

Ye Xuan smiled and said, “As long as you are willing, I can make you a powerful warrior, at least with a certain degree of self-protection..”
