Chapter 310: Choice (2)
He fell from nearly a thousand meters in the air. Now it seemed that the physique of a transcendent body was extraordinarily strong.
From such a height, not only did he not break his arms or legs, he did not even suffer any internal injuries.
He had appeared in the unknown room. Clearly, he had been saved.
The person who saved him was most likely the young woman downstairs.
Mm, it could be considered as saving his life.
If the transcendent body was left in the wild, he wouldn’t be afraid of being exposed to the elements. What he was afraid of was bad luck. If he was struck by a powerful move and bumped into a Savage Beast that was passing by, his transcendent body defense might not be able to defend against it.
The ripping power of some Savage Beasts was extremely terrifying. It was not impossible for them to break through the transcendent body.
Su Jingxing was very grateful that he could avoid these troubles.
As he was thinking, a commotion suddenly came from downstairs.
Su Jingxing listened for a moment and smiled. What a coincidence.
Immediately, he turned around, walked to the door, opened it, and walked down the stairs.
In such street buildings, the second levels were used as lodging while the first levels held shops.
When Su Jingxing came down, the first thing he saw was a supermarket. It was medium-sized, but there were no customers at all.
The commotion came from the entrance of the supermarket, where the cashier was.
Su Jingxing walked over slowly. Soon, he saw seven burly men surrounding a young woman who looked delicate, gentle, but tired. They were shouting non-stop.
“Let me tell you, there’s a limit to Master Nine’s patience. If you still don’t return the money, you can dream on about continuing to run this supermarket!”
“Little girl, don’t think that just because you’re pretty, you can keep owing money.”
“Hehe, it’s fine if you don’t want to return the money. Master Nine said that as long as you’re willing to be his lover, he’ll write off the loan.”
“…”
They were either threatening, teasing, or provoking.
A group of people surrounded the young woman. All they had yet to do was get physical.
The young woman’s face alternated between flushed and pale. Her body trembled slightly and her eyes were red.
The people watching from the shops on the left and right secretly sized them up, but no one came forward to help.
Firstly, they were deterred by the group’s might. Secondly, they were being wise for personal survival.
Not many people were willing to interfere in such matters.
Su Jingxing didn’t make much noise when he walked over, but he still attracted the attention of a few people.
“Ha, someone still dares to buy things here?” A man with a buzz cut cocked his head and surveyed Su Jingxing. As he spoke, he took a few steps forward, wanting to push him. “Id*ot, you’re quite bold…”
Pa!
The slap was loud and clear, echoing in the supermarket.
The man with the buzz-cut stopped talking abruptly. He spun on the spot twice and fell to the ground with a thud, unconscious.
Even so, half of his face became swollen like a pig’s head.
Silence fell inside and outside the supermarket. Everyone’s gazes fell on Su Jingxing.
Mm, Su Jingxing did not change his appearance. Ever since he came to the southwest, he had become a yellow-faced burly man and took on the alias, Li Jing.
At this moment, he had not used his full strength when he attacked.
Even though there was a 99% chance that the young woman was his savior, Su Jingxing would always hold back before he was 100% sure.
“Uncle, you’re awake?”
In the silence, the young woman was the first to speak.
She looked at Su Jingxing with joy and surprise.
“How many days are there until the Martial Sage’s meeting on Giant Shark Island?” Su Jingxing responded with another question.
“Huh?” The young woman was stunned. Then she thought of something and replied, “It’s tomorrow.”
“Tomorrow?”
Su Jingxing nodded and continued, “Did you save me?”
Su Jingxing ignored the others and looked at the young woman.
“Well… not really. My elder brother and I just saw you fall down the mountain and fall into a coma. Then, we brought you home.
“By the way, my name is Lu Xinyan. My brother is Lu Xincheng,” introduced the young woman. “Uncle, are you alright?”
“Alright? He hit one of ours, he’s dead meat!”
A bald burly man chimed in with a sinister smile. “I thought he was bold enough to come here to buy something. Turns out that you siblings had saved a b*stard who doesn’t what’s good for…”
Before he could finish his sentence.
Pak!
Another crisp sound reverberated through the supermarket.
The bald man was sent flying out of the supermarket and landed on the street. His limbs were bent and he passed out from the pain immediately.
He had fainted, and his entire face had turned into a pig’s head. His mouth was full of blood, and his teeth were all over the ground.
The supermarket fell into silence again.
Compared to the buzz-cut man, the bald man’s tragic state was even more shocking.
No one saw Su Jingxing take action, but the bald burly man was sent flying.
The slap threw him ten meters out. His limbs were bent and he fainted on the spot.
What realm was this martial artist in?
An expert!
No matter what grade he was in, he was an expert!
At this moment, Lu Xinyan was dumbfounded.
The remaining five men were also left agape and terrified.
The people in the shops on the left and right, and opposite were all stunned silent.
A furious shout broke the silence.
“Stop! You b*stards, get out!”
A muscular young man dashed down the street. He looked furious as he shouted angrily at the five people at the entrance of the supermarket. “D*mned b*stards, if you dare to touch my sister, even if I die, I… I will…”
His words trailed off.
This young man who ran over was a little dumbfounded. He looked at the bald burly man lying on the ground, then at the buzz-cut man. Finally, he turned around and his gaze landed on Su Jingxing. He was bewildered.
“What… what’s going on with them?”
“Brother, Uncle is awake.” Lu Xinyan came back to her senses and said excitedly, “These two people were… knocked out by Uncle.”
“Um, is he really a martial arts expert?”
The young man, Lu Xincheng, looked at Su Jingxing and blurted out subconsciously.
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly realized what he had said and lowered his head to look away.
Lu Xinyan blushed as well, not daring to look at Su Jingxing again.
Their reaction clearly told Su Jingxing that they had a motive for saving him.
He fell down the mountain yet he did not sustain any injuries, and his body was still faintly glowing.
He was most likely a martial arts expert.
Saving a martial arts expert would definitely pay handsomely.
Of course, if Su Jingxing was a wanted criminal, Lu Xinyan and her brother might get implicated if they saved him.
However, such matters were filled with luck to begin with. Whether it was a blessing or a curse, both had an equal chance.
Especially with the trouble they were currently in, it was worth a gamble.
From the looks of it, they had won the bet!
…
Su Jingxing took in their reactions, but he wasn’t angry.
It was even better if he had a motive for saving him.
Glancing at the remaining five fellows who were so frightened that they were frozen, Su Jingxing asked calmly, “Do you owe them a lot of money?”
“Y-Yes.”
Lu Xinyan swallowed and replied, “Mas… Master Nine tricked my father and got him addicted to gambling. In less than a week, he lost five million dollars. My father couldn’t take it anymore and committed s*icide by jumping off a building. Master Nine wants us to repay the debt, and he wanted this supermarket as well. The deadline is a month. If we can’t repay the money within a month…”
Lu Xinyan did not finish her sentence, but everyone knew what the consequences would be.
The supermarket being taken away was secondary. The problem was whether the siblings could continue to live in good condition.
This was also why Lu Xinyan and her brother decided to take a gamble when they saw Su Jingxing falling down the mountain without any injuries on their way back from the functional town where they went to borrow money from relatives.
Master Nine was a local despot and was quite powerful. He was in the seventh-grade.
Su Jingxing’s realm was clearly way above the seventh-grade. If Su Jingxing was willing to help, then the trouble Master Nine had given them would no longer be trouble.
On this point, the Lu siblings were filled with anxiety.
Su Jingxing remained calm and said coolly, “Five million Great Yu dollars, is it? I’ll pay for it for you.”
“Huh?” Lu Xincheng opened his mouth wide and stuttered happily, “Re… really?”
“Of course.”
Su Jingxing said calmly, “It’s a fact that you saved me. I’ll help you resolve your troubles and we’ll call it even afterward. But…”
“But what is it? Feel free to speak,” said Lu Xincheng quickly. “As long as we can do it, we will definitely do our best.”
“Brother…”
“Shut up.” Lu Xincheng reached out and interrupted Lu Xinyan.
Seeing this, Su Jingxing smiled. “Don’t be nervous. I don’t have any other conditions. I just want to tell you that I can also help you guys take care of that Master Nine.
“Pay off the five million dollars or take care of Master Nine. Which one do you choose?”
