Eps. 236 — Lun Zhi
"Do you want to take this further, if you do, I don't mind meddling in the fight against you..." Jian Chen said coldly.
Wu Yi laughed. "You seem to have enough power to fight me judging by your confidence?"
"You can try it and I'm sure your life is the bet."
Wu Yi clenched his hands hard, he could feel Jian Chen provoking him but Wu Yi tried to remain calm. "Ah, our fight is a bit of a distraction today, Lun Zhi. Do you mind fighting another time?"
Lun Zhi snorted in annoyance, from the start he was unwilling to fight Wu Yi but the situation forced him to do so.
Lun Zhi was not afraid of Wu Yi but rather he could not fight in the crowd like this.
Wu Yi then sheathed his sword before turning around and was about to leave, yet only a few steps of his feet moved Jian Chen's voice again sounded. "You want to go, what about the restaurant damage you've made?"
Wu Yi stopped his steps before turning to the area around the restaurant, there were a lot of broken objects covering the wall or table.
"I don't care!"
"You have to replace it, it's your responsibility to damage the restaurant's facilities."
"And what if I refuse?" Wu Yi looked at Jian Chen cynically.
Jian Chen chuckled slightly before leaping high from his desk and landing in front of the restaurant entrance, blocking Lun Zhi out.
"You're gonna deal with me!" Jian Chen grinned widely.
Wu Yi's forehead shriveled, "Do you want to bring this matter to violence again?"
"I'm not asking you that, I just want you to compensate for this restaurant."
All the customers who were watching since then became tense even a little afraid, they were worried that the fight would happen again while Lun Zhi did not speak any further, he concentrated on standing in front of the customers to ensure their safety from Wu Yi's sudden attack.
"Of course you can turn it down if you don't have money, you can sell it with your heirloom." Jian Chen smiled mockingly.
Wu Yi almost lost control and a little emotion yet he tried not to attack Jian Chen.
Wu Yi was not stupid enough to realize the situation right now, if Jian Chen moved with Lun Zhi simultaneously then Wu Yi had no chance to compensate they might even lose.
"There's been a long time that someone has made me this helpless position..." Wu Yi laughed out loud while shaking his head.
He then took out a pouch of money in his space ring and threw it at one of the restaurant's waiters. The money contained gold coins, more than enough to repair the damage to even make the restaurant building come back.
Wu Yi continued his steps leaving the restaurant and when his footsteps were beside Jian Chen, he whispered softly. "Hope that you don't see me again"
Jian Chen smiled sinisterly in reply. "Hopefully hope you don't get killed at our next meeting."
Wu Yi clenched his hands but did not answer any further but laughed as he continued his steps, the disciples behind him followed him later.
The atmosphere of the restaurant was suddenly awkward, no sound came out until Lun Zhi bowed respectfully to Jian Chen. "Thank you, the swordsman has helped me in a difficult situation and sent him away."
"No need to hesitate Senior Lun, it's an honor to also meet you." Jian Chen paid his respects as well.
Jian Chen knew Lun Zhi and probably almost everyone of the Empire knew his name, the swordsman who was often referred to as the Golden Scepter was one of the heroes that belonged to the ten strongest warriors in the Empire.
Lun Zhi felt Jian Chen was a man of his age excluding his so young face, Lun Zhi thought Jian Chen was using a certain technique to make himself younger than his age.
"Ehm! Did the warrior also come here because of the same intention, looking for the book?" Lun Zhi opened the topic of conversation.
"I just happened to be here for a trip, about the book of the sky I just found out that was at the restaurant earlier."
"Did the swordsman go after him?"
Jian Chen frowned, slightly clueless. "Is that something Senior is forbidden from?"
Lun Zhi let out a long sigh while rubbing her tired-looking face, "Actually the book is a treasure belonging to the Mayor, I came here not having the same intention but to guard the book..."
Frankly Lun Zhi explained that he had just come here a few hours ago before going to the restaurant, the reason he went to Anshan City was because the Mayor sent him a letter.
In the letter, the Mayor said that Anshan City was in danger, there was someone who dared to break through to the mayor area openly two days ago, the man said that the city would be attacked soon.
Until now it is still a question mark how the secret book owned by the Mayor can leak into the outside world.
The problem is that the book can bring disaster if it is known by many people.
"Attacking City in the Imperial Province, who's crazy enough to do that?" Jian Chen was surprised when Lun Zhi explained so.
A criminal would think twice looking for trouble in the territory of the Fire Dragon Province, the closer to the area of the Empire the supposed crime was to decrease.
"Executor, I agree with what you said and I think there is only one organization that can arbitrarily be in the Imperial government. I'm sure they're the Organization of the 12 Shio Hunters."
Jian Chen frowned, if thought back it was true what Lun Zhi said.
You could say that the Shio Hunter Organization does not know fear of the government, they only focus on the goal, whatever it is that gets in the way they will get rid of it including destroying even one city.
Lun Zhi then took Jian Chen to the Mayor's residence if he wanted to find out more details about the matter. He could see Jian Chen was not a bad person.
Moreover Jian Chen exuded a powerful aura on his body, although not too sure yet Lun Zhi felt that Jian Chen could defeat him if the two fought.
"It looks like you're going to interfere with their problems, right?" Lily asked inside Jian Chen's mind.
"Lilly?! You're awake!" Jian Chen was surprised enthusiastically.
Lily nodded slowly, the reason she had just spoken to Jian Chen again was because a few days ago she had to fall asleep after absorbing Xin Tian and Yun Luo's cultivation.
Why was that so because now that Lily had already reached the Sky Realm realm, it was at least what she had told Jian Chen.
"If I ignore this matter then there are hundreds of thousands of people living in this city who are affected by the enemy's attack." Jian Chen stated that in the future Anshan city had already become a dead city due to this attack.
"I don't want to stop you or anything like that, you could say I don't care." Lily shrugged her shoulders.
Jian Chen smiled awkwardly, he thought Lily was worried about his safety as usual, yet it seemed like he had misjudged.
In the end Jian Chen agreed to go to the Mayor's residence with Lun Zhi, Jian Chen wanted to ascertain something that made him curious, and that he wanted to try to do in this second life.
