Top-notch Urban Evil Cultivator

Lin Xuan looked at her.

"For some reason, ever since your accident, they all know that you are a successor of ancient martial arts."

Ye Jin frowned, her fingers unconsciously tapping the tree trunk.

"The news from the Ancient Martial Arts Alliance spread very quickly. I originally wanted to wait until you were a little better before telling you, but I didn't expect Xia Yu to come to us so soon."

Lin Xuan frowned:

"Them? All of them?"

Ye Jin nodded: "Yes, as I told you last time, there are very few inheritors of ancient martial arts in Jiangzhou, only four in total. Of course, that doesn't include you and Wang Dali."

"Originally, only I found out about your situation by accident, but now, the rest of them know!"

"So I suspect someone is deliberately targeting you."

Lin Xuan understood immediately.

He was a "wild" ancient martial arts practitioner, not belonging to any of the eight major lineages, with no master, no background, and no powerful backer.

Such people are so rare! And so eye-catching!

After all, Wang Dali once said that in today's world, there is almost no one like him!

That's how it works!

Everyone is interested in being an oddball!

Those they want to recruit, those they want to test, those they want to eliminate, those they want to study...

There are all kinds of people.

"So!" Ye Jin nodded solemnly, "Your best course of action right now is to join a faction! Don't make yourself so...special!"

She paused, then added, "Among the eight lineages, some are quite powerful and have a good reputation. For example, Wang Dali's lineage, or the lineage behind me."

"As long as you join one of their lineages, have a master and a legitimate status, those people won't dare to easily harm you. This is currently the best option."

"Of course, I'd love to have you join us! If you're willing, I'll figure something out!"

Join a faction...

Lin Xuan remained silent for a few seconds.

"Officer Ye, thank you."

Lin Xuan did not respond.

Joining a faction was not a simple matter for him.

He didn't know where his skills came from, what his lineage was, or how those so-called "orthodox" people would view him as an outcast.

After all, his lineage didn't seem to follow any proper path.

What dual cultivation, evil intentions, burning blood...?

Who practices these methods authentically?

Whether rushing to deliver something to someone's door will bring good fortune or misfortune is anyone's guess.

So he needs to think about it carefully.

Seeing his expression, Ye Jin knew he was hesitant, so she didn't try to persuade him further.

She nodded: "Since you and Wang Dali have a good relationship, and he's looking out for you over there, there shouldn't be any major problems for now, so I won't say any more."

"If you need any help, feel free to contact me next time. Whether it's for sparring or finding someone, it's all good. Of course, if you want to join, I'd be more than happy to!"

Lin Xuan nodded: "Okay, thank you."

The two returned to Su Yurou's side.

.

Half an hour later.

Lin Xuan carried Su Yurou out of the deep mountains.

Su Yurou lay on his back, her arms wrapped around his neck.

Although she was still a little weak, she was in much better condition than before.

She closed her eyes, enjoying this rare "private car service," a faint smile playing on her lips.

The moment Su Yurou saw the sunlight, she felt as if she had been transported to another world.

The darkness and cold of the deep mountains, those terrible memories, were all scattered by the sunlight in that instant.

The warm sunlight shone on me, dispelling the chill that seeped into my bones.

Her eyes involuntarily reddened.

Freedom is wonderful.

The two men arrived at her car.

The red sports car was surrounded by a bunch of police cars, and it was particularly dazzling in the sunlight.

But soon, she stopped laughing.

The car door was smashed open, the windows were shattered, and glass shards were scattered everywhere, glittering in the sunlight.

There were footprints on the seat, indicating that it had been ransacked.

She was stunned for a moment, then exploded.

"Who the hell smashed my car?!"

She jumped off Lin Xuan's back, staggered to the front of the car, looked at the broken glass all over the ground, and felt like crying.

She crouched down, picked up a piece of car glass, her hands trembling.

"You're insane! You're a pervert! Kidnapping me is one thing, but then you smashed my car!"

She got angrier and angrier as she talked, and tears started to come out of her eyes.

"Waaah... I just bought this car... I haven't even driven it much... It cost millions... I saved up for two years to buy it..."

Lin Xuan silently shut his mouth.

He recalled that he might have... used too much force while searching for clues.

Yeah, I can't say, I'll definitely get scolded if I do.

Not long after, Ye Jin and her group came out, and the two of them helped her complete the procedures.

Lin Xuan was told that he could take Su Yurou back to Jiangzhou.

The car started and began its journey back.

On the way, Su Yurou leaned against the passenger seat, watching the scenery rushing past the window, and suddenly spoke.

"Lin Xuan, can you tell me now? What exactly happened?"

Lin Xuan was silent for a few seconds, then began to explain to her.

It all started with the story of the ancient martial arts lineage, then moved on to the Eight Veins tradition, to the fact that he was being targeted, to Xia Yu, and finally to Tian Youcai being used as a pawn...

Lin Xuan did not hide anything.

Because she encountered an accident herself, she has the right to know the truth.

But the more Su Yurou listened, the more outrageous it seemed.

Isn't this all stuff from novels?

But then he thought about that mysterious thing that happened between him and An Lan.

Two people were inexplicably admitted to the ICU, and both were even in life-threatening condition.

Only then did I slowly begin to believe it.

So, it turns out, such things really do exist in the world.

She remained silent for a while, processing this information.

After a long while, she suddenly turned her head and looked at Lin Xuan with bright eyes.

"So, can you scale walls and rooftops?"

Lin Xuan was stunned for a moment:

"...No, I'm just a little bit better at fighting than the average person."

"Can you see through walls?"

"...No, I can't either, I'm not a god."

"Can you predict tomorrow's lottery numbers?"

"...No...I can't. If I could predict the future, I would have quit my job long ago and just buy lottery tickets every day."

Lin Xuan was speechless.

This woman's thought process is a bit different from normal people! She just went through a kidnapping, and now she's concerned about these things?

Su Yurou looked disappointed: "That's still not a good idea!"

She leaned back in her chair, frowning as she thought. But after a while, she turned her head again, her eyes brightening.

"Then... can I be like you? Become Superman!"

Lin Xuan subconsciously wanted to shake his head and say no.

But then he suddenly remembered Zhao Xueli's recent changes.

She said she has been feeling refreshed lately, not only has she stopped having migraines, but her skin has also improved, her sleep quality has increased, and her work efficiency has also improved significantly.

He looked several years younger.

This... seems to be a change as well.

He paused, then changed his words:

"Well... well... it's not entirely impossible."

Upon hearing this, Su Yurou's eyes widened.

"Really?!"

She leaned in close, her face beaming with excitement, and almost pounced on Lin Xuan from the passenger seat.
