Martial Arts Master in the City

[Chapter 1391]

No one knows how long it's been, but the day has cooled.

Ye Xiao can also feel that morning has come.

Perhaps because the Nine Yang True Qi was excessively exhausted, Ye Xiao unexpectedly plunged into a sea of True Qi when he began to circulate energy for healing, indulging in an exhilarating cultivation he hadn't experienced for a long time, a feeling that's hard to describe.

Ye Xiao slowly opened his eyes, and at this moment, his eyes emitted a flame-like glow, not particularly bright but carrying a faint golden elegance.

And his gaze at this moment focused on a person.

Inside the room, about half a meter away from the bed, there was a wooden stool, and on that stool sat a person, currently asleep leaning over the bedside cabinet.

She was none other than Wang Luoxin, whom Ye Xiao rescued last night.

Wang Luoxin had originally been watching Ye Xiao with her eyes open, but because her wounds hadn't fully healed, she leaned against the bedside cabinet and fell asleep.

Ye Xiao understood Wang Luoxin's worries, gently got off the bed, then took off his jacket and draped it over Wang Luoxin's shoulders.

Wang Luoxin was barely asleep, so she immediately opened her eyes upon feeling the movement.

When she saw Ye Xiao looking at her with a serious expression, Wang Luoxin queried in surprise, "Ye Xiao, have you finished your cultivation?"

Ye Xiao nodded slightly.

"How do you feel now?" Wang Luoxin noticed Ye Xiao's complexion had improved significantly but still couldn't help but worry.

Ye Xiao smiled faintly, helped Wang Luoxin up, and said, "You've stayed up all night, making me worry. Now, listen to me, lie down and rest well."

Wang Luoxin was indeed obedient, recognizing her physical condition.

"Ye Xiao, there's something I've been thinking about for a long time that needs to be done soon," Wang Luoxin said, sitting at the bedside while Ye Xiao helped her take off her shoes.

Ye Xiao didn't raise his head but removed Wang Luoxin's shoes and said, "What's so serious that requires such long consideration?"

"We can't stay here long," Wang Luoxin looked at Ye Xiao seriously.

Ye Xiao hearing this, also looked seriously at Wang Luoxin.

Ye Xiao wasn't a fool, even if he hadn't thought of it earlier, with Wang Luoxin saying so, he could also guess.

"You're talking about Linghuo Sect!" Ye Xiao said.

Wang Luoxin nodded and said, "Yesterday you crippled Huo Wensong. This may not be a big deal for you, but it's a significant event for the entire Linghuo Sect and even the whole Martial Arts World in the Northern Territory. If I'm guessing right, Linghuo Sect's Huo Qinglong is currently searching for you like a mad dog all over Han City."

Ye Xiao listened to Wang Luoxin's words, nodded slightly, and sighed, saying, "I'll handle whatever comes my way, don't worry too much, it's all on me."

Ye Xiao helped Wang Luoxin lie down and covered her with a blanket.

Wang Luoxin heard this, nodded, and didn't say anything further.

Then Ye Xiao said to Wang Luoxin, "Close your eyes, rest well, and once you're better, I'll check your wounds again."

Wang Luoxin said, "Okay."

Subsequently, Ye Xiao left the room.

At this point, it was about eight o'clock in the morning, outside in the corridor sat several people on stools found somewhere. They had been there for quite some time now.

When Ye Xiao stepped out, these people immediately stood up.

"Boss!" Zhou Hao and others immediately gathered around Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao looked at them and said, "You've worked hard."

Ye Xiao knew these people had likely been here all night; it must have been exhausting.

"Boss, how's Miss Wang?" Zhou Hao looked at Ye Xiao.

Last night, Ye Xiao hurried into Wang Luoxin's room because her injuries had worsened, and everyone was concerned about her. Little did they know, later that night, Ye Xiao himself almost encountered danger.

Ye Xiao said, "She's alright now, just needs more rest, what about Huo Feng?"

"Brother Xiao!"

At this moment, Huo Feng walked over to Ye Xiao and the others, accompanied by two other women, clearly Blood Eagle Guards.

Ye Xiao looked at Huo Feng and said, "You've just returned from outside?"

Huo Feng nodded slightly and said, "Brother Xiao, things outside aren't looking good!"

"It's about Linghuo Sect, right?" Ye Xiao guessed hearing Huo Feng's words.

Huo Feng quickly confessed, "Yes, Linghuo Sect's Huo Qinglong is serious this time, the sect disciples of Linghuo Sect have dispatched at least a third to Han City, claiming they will search high and low to find you, Brother Xiao. Furthermore, Huo Qinglong issued a bounty in the Northern Territory Martial Arts World centered on Han City, offering..."

Huo Feng paused here, lowering her head instead of continuing.

Ye Xiao didn't know what Huo Qinglong might say, but he was sure it wouldn't be anything good, so he chuckled quietly and said, "Speak, the sky isn't falling."

Huo Feng nodded slightly and continued, "Huo Qinglong said that anyone who kills you, Brother Xiao, will be rewarded with a hundred Earth Rank pills, or anything of equal value, plus one Earth Rank secret manual. Anyone who captures you alive, Brother Xiao, will be rewarded with three hundred Earth Rank pills, or anything of equal value, plus three Earth Rank secret manuals."

After Huo Feng spoke, those present were immediately filled with rage.

"This Huo Qinglong truly spares no expense," Tang Heng said angrily, "But doesn't he consider what reward someone might receive for killing him instead?"

Zhou Hao looked at Ye Xiao and said, "Boss, we need a long-term plan."

Ye Xiao glanced at Zhou Hao, his face unchanged, showing no expression.

"It seems Huo Qinglong is truly angered," Ye Xiao chuckled unexpectedly and said, "But his reactions are understandable, right? After all, losing a son never puts anyone in a cheerful mood, wouldn't you say?"

"Brother Xiao, how do we handle this?" Lu Liang looked at Ye Xiao and said, "Now we face two enemies."

Lu Liang was right, everyone present knew Ye Xiao and his companions now faced not just Linghuo Sect or Soul Sect, but both sects combined.

Previously, Soul Sect posed the greatest threat to Ye Xiao, but yesterday Max was seriously injured and fled, clearly unable to attack immediately. For now, it's Linghuo Sect that's the pressing issue.

However, when Ye Xiao heard Lu Liang's words, he merely chuckled and said, "I never claimed the enemy was just one."
