ys should suffice." Xiao Yaobu took the silver and counted it, keeping ten liang for himself before returning the rest to Miss Eldest."Alright, I'll find you again in ten days!!" The young miss didn't...Chapter 295: Not Worth a Second Look 2
Simpler said than done! If it were that simple, I'd cut off my head for you to kick around!
Xiaoyao didn't know what the matter was all about, but from how the elder patiently set up this stall and had people learn "Laugh at the Vast Sea," he knew it must be a very important matter. Such matters are often not simple; they might even involve danger.
"Young Brother, only you can help me with this matter. Let's discuss it!" The elder sounded as though he was begging, but his eyes didn't show any such emotion.
"Only I can help doesn’t mean that I will necessarily do so. No need to商量, I'm busy and don't want to get involved in this trouble," Xiaoyao shook his head and replied.
“Why do you think it’s troublesome It's a very simple matter!” The elder said with a smile.
"If it were that simple, why would you be setting up your stall here for over a year, rain or shine" Xiaoyao asked the people around him since he didn't know how long exactly.
“About a year and a half, very long time indeed! He's out every day without fail!” One of them rushed to answer as in their eyes, Xiaoyao was now an extraordinary figure they adored.
"Over a year, rain or shine. I think this matter is more troublesome than what I imagined! What makes you so persistent Anyone would want it and it definitely isn't simple at all!! Also, the fact that you keep saying help without mentioning anything specific means you’re deliberately concealing something about its difficulty!"
Xiaoyao continued: "The most important point is that you're an Imperial Warrior. To disguise yourself as a commoner and do this kind of thing… I think this matter is even more complex than it appears to be!"
When Xiaoyao said the elder was an Imperial Warrior, his expression changed. He wasn't friendly anymore; he looked at Xiaoyao with cold eyes.
The elder didn’t quite understand how this youth could perceive his strength when he had hidden it so well that even a peer couldn't detect him. Yet this kid managed to see through it
"Very good, you're smart. Then you should know no matter what your answer is, I will make sure you do this task for me, regardless of the means!" The elder said coldly and was ready to take action.
“I knew it would be like that but I advise you not to take any actions,” Xiaoyao smiled without paying him any mind. Even if he were an Imperial Warrior didn't matter to him.
"Why"
"The reason is simple: your presence as an Imperial Warrior here isn’t worth a second look," Xiaoyao said with a smile.
What!
The youth actually said that his power wasn't impressive enough! An Imperial Warrior, in any major nation, would be invincible and top-notch even among empires. Yet the one before him didn’t seem like an Imperial Warrior at all, let alone a powerhouse.
"You think you can defeat me Your strength is merely Knight level; to last more than one move against me already shows great skill. But I won't kill you, I will take you somewhere!" the elder said as he looked at Xiaoyao.
“I might not be able to beat you but there's someone here who can defeat you. Qingyun City is hers, and she’s its most powerful; you’re nowhere near her league!” Xiaoyao replied with a smile.
"Humph, don't toy with me! Have her come out or follow me!" The elder said coldly, not believing his words.
Xiaoyao shouted back: "Miss, come help me; someone wants to kidnap me."
“Hehe, boy, how did you know I’m here” Miss's voice rang out. “Make way in front or else!”
"Ah! Mo Yu!"
The crowd was stirred again and a path opened up for the three to appear before everyone!
“This isn’t good,” he thought.
The elder realized that Xiaoyao wasn't playing him since he knew who was coming. In Qingyun City, these two were his biggest fears; with both now on Xiaoyao's side, the matter seemed difficult indeed.
First, capture him, and then everything would be fine!
The elder decided to take advantage of their distance and strike first!
To think about whether Xiaoyao could cause any trouble, he didn't. He felt such considerations unnecessary!
Thus, the elder moved; reaching out to grab Xiaoyao.
"Shit!"
The moment she saw him move, Miss leaped up and curled her legs while Nangong Xuxin immediately hit her feet with a palm.
The Young Lady added more force to her feet, concentrating the power of both individuals and firing them towards the old man like a cannonball. This series of actions was completed in an instant.
This kind of默契配合doesn't require any conversation or even eye contact between them; as long as one person makes a move, the other will know what to do.
The old man wanted to outpace them, and even when he saw the Young Lady's action, he didn’t stop but instead sped up to grab Xianyao. However, he overestimated the speed of the Young Lady; by the time his hand reached Xianyao, the Young Lady had already slashed at him!
If the old man did not evade this attack, he would definitely be hit. Even if he managed to grab Xianyao, it wouldn’t matter because he must give up now!
"Are you okay" The Young Lady asked as she stood in front of Xianyao. At this moment, Nan Gong Suxin had also arrived beside him; the old man now had no chance to grab Xianyao.
The old man was very frustrated at this point: Who exactly is this kid How can he have these two genius girls backing him up It seems both of them are very concerned about this guy.
"I'm okay, but you were just a bit late. Why did you need to show off" Xianyao accused the Young Lady without any conscience, shocking everyone watching.
What is going on here This kid actually dares to speak to the tyrant of Qingyun City like this—does he want to die
At that moment they thought Xianyao would definitely have a tragic ending, but the outcome was beyond their expectations!
"I'm sorry. Next time I will come straight away and not show off!" The Young Lady said weakly.
No way! Did I see this wrong Is this still Miss Mo Yu No, it’s impossible!!
The old man bullied you; I’ll help take revenge for you. Do you want to die or be crippled" The Young Lady was a bit angry and gave him two choices, but both outcomes were not good.
Everyone broke out in cold sweat. If they offended this Miss Mo Yu, the consequences would be severe—no matter if one is an Emperor-level martial artist!
Furthermore, I should keep my distance; otherwise, when they start fighting, I might get caught in the crossfire and suffer.
The onlookers quickly dispersed to a safe distance. In the middle were Xianyao and four others plus that old man!
The reason why the Young Lady was slightly angry this time wasn’t because of Xianyao’s blame, but seeing someone wanting to kidnap and harm him. She had just shown off by slowly arriving; if anything happened at that moment, she would have hated herself.
Indeed, some of her anger was directed towards herself.
This man is my brother; whoever wants to lay a finger on him will face me in battle!
The night wind gently blew. Occasionally, a shooting star flashed across the night sky...
The night in Qingyun State and the night markets of Qingyun City were both quiet; however, their situations differed—the former was peaceful while the latter was calm before a storm.
Everyone remained silent at this moment, wanting to see how the storm would unfold but dared not make any sound for fear of attracting it upon themselves!
The entire Qingyun City didn’t want to offend this "tyrant" who burned someone else’s restaurant just days after returning. Anyone who tried to cause trouble was met with tragedy; no one in Tian Feng Country dared to provoke him.
Forget about Tian Feng Country, even across the whole continent, there were not many people willing to challenge him!
The old man also didn’t dare to provoke him, especially when he had such powerful backup. Provoking her would be inviting death!
If he had a choice, he wouldn't have attempted to grab this youth even knowing it was him. At that moment, he only wanted to take a chance and offend the other party regardless of the consequences.
However, he didn’t expect that even so, he failed and brought upon himself such a big trouble!
"Miss Mo Yu, Misses Nan Gong, may I ask what your relationship is with him" The old man試探性地問道，態度依然保持良好。
If their relationship wasn't particularly deep, he could offer some conditions to exchange. If it was very deep—then he would raise the stakes even higher!
At this moment, there was no way for him to deal with the two people in front of him; he had either to give up or make an exchange. Giving up wasn’t a possibility—he didn’t know how much time he spent waiting for this day, and after losing this opportunity, whether he would have another chance to wait again. Therefore, he wouldn't give up.
"He I just a servant. How about you Do you have any last words that need to be said" The Young Lady said indifferently.
“Servant!”
The old man didn’t hear the rest of what she was saying, only staring blankly at this word. He couldn't believe that with Xianyao's abilities, he would be a servant and also couldn't believe how much Miss Mo Yu cared about such a low-ranking person—it doesn't make sense! It makes no sense at all!
Not just the old man but even the onlookers didn’t believe it. Although some people had seen Xianyao before, finding him familiar, he was always very low-key and didn’t leave much of an impression over time; therefore, despite such a significant hint, no one could recall who he was.(To be continued)rd to guard against hidden ones.
