Martial Arts Master in the City

Chapter 1198: I'm Not the Savior (Third Update)



"Where is the ancient scroll now?" Ye Xiao asked Li Jian seriously.

Li Jian knew that the ancient scroll was definitely a treasure, so he had always hidden it deeply. Now that Ye Xiao asked, he thought for a moment and immediately said to Ye Xiao, "It's not in Bird City."

"I need that ancient scroll!" Ye Xiao said.

Li Jian said, "You need it?"

Ye Xiao smiled and said, "Or rather, that scroll could save your life."

"Ah?" Li Jian was so scared he broke out in a cold sweat, quickly saying, "Okay, okay, I'll give it to you."

Ye Xiao reached out to help Li Jian up and said, "If you're willing, I can take you as an apprentice, or rather, have you join the Qiu Mountain Sect."

"Ah?" Li Jian had just been scared into a cold sweat, and now he was shocked into another cold sweat.

At this moment, Li Jian's mind was completely in a whirl. The reversal was too great! Just moments ago, they were going to kill him, but now he could join the Qiu Mountain Sect?

Although Li Jian didn't know much about martial arts sects, he did know about the Qiu Mountain Sect.

But at this moment, the most surprised was not Li Jian but Ye Ziyan.

Ye Ziyan couldn't understand what was going on with Ye Xiao. He just said he would show no mercy to beasts, but now...

Though Ye Ziyan couldn't figure it out, she knew that Ye Xiao always had a plan in whatever he did.

Li Jian looked at Ye Xiao and said, "Are you serious? You... you're not tricking me, are you?"

"Haha, why would I trick you? Besides, whether you have the scroll is another matter," Ye Xiao said laughingly. "I'll give you five days to bring the scroll to me. If there's a delay, someone will take your life. If it proves useful to me when you bring it, you'll be rewarded, and joining the Qiu Mountain Sect will just be extra."

Li Jian looked at Ye Xiao and quickly said, "Yes, yes, I'll definitely get the scroll."

Ye Xiao said, "Bring the scroll, and it'll count as redeeming yourself, so I won't kill you. Also, when you return, take some money to bring out those women you played with from those entertainment places, give them substantial compensation. As for the future, whether you follow me or not, don't let it happen again, or you'll surely die."

Li Jian kept nodding in agreement as he listened to Ye Xiao's words.

After Ye Xiao finished speaking, he turned and walked towards the Porsche, with Ye Ziyan naturally following closely behind.

Li Jian suddenly lifted his head and looked at Ye Xiao, saying, "May I ask... who exactly are you?"

"Ye Xiao!" After saying that, Ye Xiao opened the car door and got into the Porsche!

This car of Han Lichong's, he could borrow it for now.

"Ye Xiao!" Li Jian mumbled, then felt a wave of dizziness. At this moment, his two subordinates quickly came over to support him. Li Jian felt a great deal of heartache, not for Han Lichong but for that ancient scroll.

He really regretted it now; he had accidentally revealed the scroll out of fear. He knew the scroll was a priceless treasure.

But if he didn't get it, it seemed this person called Ye Xiao wouldn't be easy to deal with.

Moreover, Ye Xiao just promised he could join the Qiu Mountain Sect.

Li Jian had always wandered the world like a lost soul, with some strength but no sect.

The story splits into two parts!

In the Porsche, Ye Ziyan was frowning.

Ye Xiao was so clever, although he was driving, he couldn't help but glance at Ye Ziyan from time to time. He knew Ye Ziyan was really angry now.

"Ziyan, are you mad at your brother?" Ye Xiao said with a smile.

Hearing this, Ye Ziyan turned to look at Ye Xiao, angrily saying, "Brother, what's wrong with you? How can you let that fat jerk go? He deserves to die."

Ye Xiao said, "We're not saviors either."

Seeing Ye Xiao's casual words, Ye Ziyan said again, "But what he's done is like a beast."

"I know, didn't I just tell him not to do that again?" Ye Xiao said.

"How is that right?" Ye Ziyan immediately said angrily, "Brother, before you met that fat jerk, you weren't saying that."

Listening to Ye Ziyan, Ye Xiao was momentarily at a loss for words.

"Brother, what happened? Tell me? What is that ancient scroll? Do you want it that badly?"

Faced with Ye Ziyan's questions, Ye Xiao was a bit helpless. After thinking for a moment, he said, "In your opinion, how is Li Jian's skill, not considering his character?"

"So-so," Ye Ziyan said casually.

"That's right, indeed so-so, but have you considered that his so-so skills are actually at the mid-stage Xuan rank."

"So what?" Ye Ziyan said disdainfully, "Do you think yours is less?"

"But did you know, he didn't have a master to guide him. He only reached this level by comprehending from an incomplete ancient scroll," Ye Xiao said.

After hearing Ye Xiao's words, Ye Ziyan immediately frowned and said, "Are you saying this fat jerk is exceptionally talented?"

"I'm not sure yet since I haven't seen that scroll. If it's not that Li Jian is exceptionally talented, then the scroll contains rare secret techniques, so I want to get that secret technique," Ye Xiao said.

"Are you saying that once you have the scroll, you'll kill him?"

"It depends. If the scroll's secret technique is indeed rare, creating Li Jian, then he becomes useless, and killing him would be the easiest solution. But if the scroll is indeed without a head or tail, then Li Jian cannot be killed!" Ye Xiao said seriously while driving.

"Why can't he be killed?" Ye Ziyan asked.

Ye Xiao said, "If the scroll is incomplete, it proves Li Jian isn't an ordinary person but a talented martial artist worth cultivating, with great potential use in the future."

"What's the use of such a person? He's just a lecherous scoundrel; keeping him around will only cause harm!" Ye Ziyan looked at Ye Xiao and said, "Brother, do you really want to keep such a scumbag?"

Ye Xiao didn't look at Ye Ziyan, his eyes on the road ahead, seriously saying, "I'm not a savior, and I have no obligation to do good for others. I'm just Ye Xiao. I have many enemies, so I need many helpers. If Li Jian can be of use to me, why shouldn't I use him? Everyone has flaws, just different ones."

Listening to Ye Xiao, Ye Ziyan was a bit surprised, but at the same time, she sobered up a bit!

Yes, she's not a savior either; there are too many injustices in the world, and she can't manage them all.
