Martial Arts Master in the City

Chapter 767: Good Intentions Gone Wrong (Four Updates)


Watching Han Ruoxi leave in a fury, Ye Xiao stood still, somewhat stupefied.

He wasn't normally one to do good deeds, but why did doing one this time earn him such great displeasure from Han Ruoxi? Could it be that he had said something wrong? He had just been stating the facts, after all. Why was Han Ruoxi so unhappy? Could it be that what she wanted to hear was not this? But he really hadn't had dinner with Han Ruoxi. What's more, he had sworn to heaven, wasn't that sincere enough?

Ye Xiao was full of doubts in his heart, unable to comprehend what was going on.

"Brother Xiao, when did you and Doctor Han get involved? Doctor Han is as beautiful as a flower, and you and her would truly be a perfect match," Yan Luo said to Ye Xiao with a naive smile.

Hearing Yan Luo's words, Ye Xiao became even more puzzled. Looking at Yan Luo, he said, "Don't talk nonsense, I don't have any relationship with Han Ruoxi."

"Really, none?" Yan Luo obviously didn't believe it.

Seeing the expression on Yan Luo's face, Ye Xiao immediately laughed and said, "Of course not. Why would you even ask?"

Yan Luo chuckled and said, "Brother Xiao, you don't have to hide it from me. I can keep your secret."

"Come on, what are you talking about? I really don't have any relationship with her," Ye Xiao said, looking very serious this time.

Yan Luo seemed to notice the seriousness in Ye Xiao's expression, and so he immediately probed a bit, "Brother Xiao, do you really have no relationship with Doctor Han?"

"None!"

"Then why did you say that just now?" Yan Luo asked curiously.

Ye Xiao found Yan Luo's words even stranger, saying, "I just swore to heaven to prove his innocence. What more do you want me to do? Those two nurses were clearly causing trouble on purpose."

"So what you said just now was all literal, not sarcastic?" Yan Luo finally understood after hearing Ye Xiao's words.

"What do you mean by literal and sarcastic?" Ye Xiao was genuinely confused, but after hearing all this, it seemed like something clicked, "Wait a minute, did you all think that when I finished speaking, I was implying that I had a relationship with Han Ruoxi?"

"Not just a relationship, but a very intimate one," Yan Luo told Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao finally understood after hearing Yan Luo's words. Fate was playing tricks on him. He had only wanted to prove Han Ruoxi's innocence, but who could have thought that after his attempt to do so, Han Ruoxi would seem even less innocent?

Ye Xiao sighed and said, "Forget it, anyway, Han Ruoxi and I have nothing to do with each other. Time will dilute everything."

Yan Luo immediately smiled faintly.

Ye Xiao then looked at Yan Luo and said with a smile, "Yan Luo, what are your plans for the future?"

"To follow Brother Xiao," said Yan Luo.

"Follow me? Doing what? You know, I am a driver now. Do you want to be an assistant driver?" Ye Xiao joked with Yan Luo.

Hearing Ye Xiao's words, Yan Luo instantly gave a wry smile. An assistant to a driver? Did drivers have assistants?

"This..." Yan Luo suddenly didn't know what to do. He just felt that he should follow Ye Xiao, but what for? He didn't know.

"Would you dare to do something against the law?" Ye Xiao saw that Yan Luo was a bit embarrassed and immediately said to him cheerfully.

Yan Luo looked at Ye Xiao, unsure of what Ye Xiao meant, but he had already decided that whatever Ye Xiao would do in the future, his role was to be Ye Xiao's loyal follower, that's all. Naturally, it meant wherever Ye Xiao pointed, he would strike.

"All it takes is a word from Brother Xiao, and Yan Luo would go through fire and water," Yan Luo said earnestly.

Ye Xiao placed a hand on Yan Luo's shoulder and then gave a slight push.

Yan Luo felt his shoulder being clamped down like it was caught in a vise, the pain intense; moreover, he didn't know why, but in that instant, it felt as if insects were scurrying all over his body, though it was only for a moment.

"Not bad!" Ye Xiao withdrew his hand, saying cheerfully.

Hearing Ye Xiao's "Not bad," Yan Luo immediately looked at him in confusion and said, "Brother Xiao, what's not bad?"

"Nothing!" Ye Xiao still smiled heartily.

In the instant that Ye Xiao laid his hand on Yan Luo's shoulder, he had actually used Nine Yang True Qi to rapidly check Yan Luo's body. He found that Yan Luo's physical constitution was not bad; if put into Martial Arts cultivation, he would qualify as having average talent.

Ye Xiao said, "I have a simple Qigong chant. Would you like to learn it? It will be very helpful for you in fights later on."

Qigong chant!

Clearly, Ye Xiao didn't plan to immediately tell Yan Luo about the matters of Martial Artists, so he claimed it was a Qigong chant.

Yan Luo said, "If Brother Xiao asks me to learn, I'll learn."

Ye Xiao immediately said, "The way you say that... I'm not forcing you to learn. If you want to learn, you must learn willingly. If you don't want to learn, naturally you won't. However, I can assure you that practicing this Qigong chant will increase your strength, your speed will grow, and if now you can fight three people at once, eventually you'll be able to take on ten by yourself. Consider it."

Yan Luo was startled and excited upon hearing Ye Xiao's words. Currently, if he got into a fight, handling three people shouldn't be a problem, but ten was indeed hazardous. Of course, if it were a group of weaklings, there might be a chance of victory, but Yan Luo believed that the ten Ye Xiao referred to were certainly not weaklings, so this was very tempting to him.

"Brother Xiao, I'm willing to learn!" Yan Luo said earnestly to Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao, seeing the readiness on Yan Luo's face, showed a pleased smile and then said, "If you're willing to learn, then it's quite simple. First, you need to acknowledge me as your master. Of course, we'll skip the traditional formalities. You just need to recognize me as your master."

What Ye Xiao intended to impart was naturally the Qiu Mountain Positive Yang Skill of the Qiu Mountain Sect. After all, he could never reveal the Nine Yang Divine Skill that he practiced. It wasn't that he was being stingy, but if the Nine Yang Divine Skill became known to others, Ye Xiao really had no idea how many people would want to kill him. Therefore, imparting the Qiu Mountain Positive Yang Skill required following the Qiu Mountain Sect's rules, which forbid passing on the skills to non-sect members, the same situation when teaching Zhan Bo and the others.

"Brother Xiao, if you become my master, how should I address you afterwards?" Yan Luo asked Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao said, "Of course you can't call me 'Master' in public. It's better to stick to the same as before, but I must tell you that I already have three disciples. You are the fourth, so when you meet them, you must treat them with respect, addressing them as 'Eldest Senior Brother,' 'Second Senior Brother,' and 'Third Senior Brother.' You could also call them 'Eldest Brother,' 'Second Brother,' 'Third Brother.' Unless they betray my teaching, you must treat them this way. Regardless of their age, I can tell you that they are younger than you."

Yan Luo was prepared to do whatever Ye Xiao said. Upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, he immediately nodded and said, "I will follow Master's command!"

Ye Xiao, hearing Yan Luo's response, nodded slowly and said with a smile, "Find a secluded place, and I'll teach you the chant. Make sure to memorize it well."

Yan Luo nodded again in agreement.

Then, Ye Xiao and Yan Luo found a quiet spot, and Ye Xiao began to teach the first layer of the Qiu Mountain Positive Yang Skill to Yan Luo.

"Brother Xiao, this chant seems different from typical Qigong. It's somewhat like the Inner Strength mentioned in martial arts TV dramas," Yan Luo asked curiously after memorizing the Qiu Mountain Positive Yang Skill's chant.

Ye Xiao, hearing Yan Luo's comment, chuckled silently, this guy wasn't so dense after all, and quickly said, "Don't think too much, just practice it well. Remember, be sure to practice at night undisturbed. At the beginning, some waste may be expelled from your body; don't worry, it's all normal. Another benefit of this chant is tempering the body, making it even stronger."

Yan Luo listened and once more nodded in agreement.

Ye Xiao then told Yan Luo some additional matters to be cautious of and left the hospital.

After leaving the hospital, Ye Xiao immediately pulled out his cellphone and dialed a number.

It wasn't long before Zhou Hao's voice came through the phone.

Indeed, Ye Xiao was calling Zhou Hao.

"Who is it?" Zhou Hao asked.

Ye Xiao said, "It's me!"

Ye Xiao only said a single word, yet Zhou Hao instantly recognized Ye Xiao's voice and quickly spoke with excitement, "Boss, is that you? How do you find Bird City?"

Ye Xiao said, "Not bad, how's everything at home?"

"Everything's normal. Oh, and there's some good news," Zhou Hao told Ye Xiao. "Zhan Bo, that guy, true to being your eldest disciple, has become the first to reach the Middle Stage of the Yellow Rank with the help of the Source Life Liquid."

Ye Xiao, upon hearing Zhou Hao's words, was somewhat overjoyed, after all, Zhan Bo was his brother and also his eldest disciple.

People generally have high hopes for their firstborn or their first disciple, and Ye Xiao, being a normal person, hoped that Zhan Bo, as his eldest disciple, would set a good example for the others. Now, the facts proved that Zhan Bo had not disappointed him.

Ye Xiao said with a smile, "Good, what about the brothers from the Blood Blade?"

"The brothers we selected are all practicing. Although their fighting abilities are quite decent, the way of Martial Arts Cultivation still requires talent and comprehension, so their progress isn't rapid. However, with the aid of the Source Life Liquid, their growth is decent enough," Zhou Hao said.

Ye Xiao, satisfied, said, "Good work with everything in Bird City."

"Boss, you're being too formal, we're brothers!" Zhou Hao laughed heartily and added, "By the way, Boss, the female comrades like Ling Shuya miss you a lot. Should I give them your number?"
