1491 Be My Guard! (2/2)

'No, if he is a member of a monster clan, he wouldn't be this clever!'

”Why so shocked? I said it. There are truth and evidence. It isn't difficult to dig deep enough to what is hidden behind the scene. Think about it. If you didn't succeed in the improvement, you wouldn't come to the City of Chaos so hastily, and you wouldn't give up so much just to get the rare metal.”

Ye Xiao said, ”Because you have too many things to care about, so you have to be powerful. You won't spend the money like you did if you don't have to. There are two possible reasons that you would do that. First, you can't fix the Farewell Sword by yourself. Second, the sword does not fit you anymore. It is full of flaws after you reached a new level.”

”If the Farewell Sword didn't get damaged, you might be able to improve it by refining it with

your own energy. However, it must be quite badly damaged. What you did could just recover it from the damage, but it didn't fit you in the fight anymore… It is difficult to use its true power now. Hmm. You are so desperate, because you can't use your Saint Origin Stage power on the sword, and it was going to break soon! Once you pour too much energy into the sword, it will break into pieces. The connection between the weapon and the owner was the most important.”

”The Farewell Sword has been fighting with you for so many years, and it fits you so well… You don't want to give it up. That's why you came.”

”You want to fix the Farewell Sword.”

”But you got disappointed. You didn't get what you want! ”You don't have enough money!”

”You didn't get the two rare metals because of Master Xiao, who also desperately needs the metals. You were angry about it. You knew that it was almost impossible to have the chance to get another Feather Bronze or Brocade Steel again. You were angry, and also in despair…”

”It looked like you were teasing Master Xiao, but the truth was… Master Xiao was so wealthy that he was definitely going to have the thing that you needed… Neither of you has done anything wrong. You both just wanted to get the things you needed! However, what you did brought you a horrible enemy! Master Xiao! He is just a vertical bamboo flute player, but in fact, he is unfathomable.”

”I wouldn't bother to guess what happened tonight because it was obvious. The guardians came out because of a fight in the city. You were in the fight for sure, and you were fighting against the people of Master Xiao.”

”You came to this city and didn't get what you wanted, but messed with a man who turned out to be so powerful. You have plunged yourself into big trouble.”

Ye Xiao's cold eyes stared at Bu Xiangfeng, and he said, ”You don't want to die, so you are here… It is such a coincidence, but I never like it this way.”

”Don't stare at me like that. I have thought through everything. I don't fear what you might do to me in the City of Chaos. I don't fear, so I do whatever I want to do.”

Ye Xiao smiled and said, ”There are always accidents, no matter how confident I am. To make sure I will be safe, I did what I did. I realized that you really did not want to die. You fear death more than I do… You have a reason not to die. Even if you know that I won't shout, you don't want to take the risk. You will stop me! You will beg me! You will get down before me.”

Ye Xiao blandly looked at Bu Xiangfeng and said, ”Why would I fear you? Especially when

everything is on the table, why would I fear? You should think about how to ask me for a chance to live!”

Bu Xiangfeng sat down on the chair.

He had gathered a strong murderous qi on him, but the murderous qi was weakened bit by bit. Now there was none left. Bu Xiangfeng was frustrated.

”I have never thought that there is actually somebody who can make such a conjecture with only a few traces… This is impressive…” Bu Xiangfeng made a long sigh. ”You are just a young man.”

”I am impressed.” He meant it.

”Impressed? I believe you truly mean it. However, when this is over, you will kill us. Won't you?” Ye Xiao said with a smile.

”Of course, I will.” Bu Xiangfeng took a breath and said, ”I really don't want to kill you if I have a choice, but you have to die.”

”Because you showed your face to us, and we have seen the disgraceful side of you? Because I know your secret? As long as we are alive, you won't feel safe. I think that is a fair reason. I would do the same if I were you!” Ye Xiao said.

”It is good that you understand.” Bu Xiangfeng humphed and coldly said, ”Living in the world, one has to do many things. No matter what he has done, he should do it for the first desire that is unchanged!”

”That's honest.” Ye Xiao thought for a while and then nodded. ”My first choice is to shout as loudly as I can to draw over the guardians, who will kill you immediately. It will get me and my man killed, but you will die too. That is at least what I can do. What do you think? Do I dare?”

Bu Xiangfeng seemed to be quite upset, and he said, ”It is truly your best choice. Otherwise, you will only have peace for one night. After tonight, I will hunt you down and kill you. It is better to die while killing the enemy, rather than to wait for death! I can understand it! If I were you, I would make the same choice!”

”It is difficult to be friends, but it is also difficult to be enemies. I think that is exactly what we are!” Ye Xiao smiled.

”How can you smile? I, Bu Xiangfeng never admired anybody, but I have to admit that I do

admire you. If you can live, maybe you will stir some great disturbance in the world someday!

What a shame!” Bu Xiangfeng said in a deep voice.

It meant he had made up his mind to kill Ye Xiao after the crisis was over. No matter what Ye Xiao did, no matter he would call for the guardians or not, Bu Xiangfeng would kill him. In other words, Ye Xiao was dead! Bu Xiangfeng might escape the guardians, but Ye Xiao was surely going to die!

Ye Xiao suddenly said, ”I know you are not a man without a conscience. I know you won't twist the truth. You are quite humble to me, so I guess I should give you a chance.”

Bu Xiangfeng coldly humphed and said, ”I can easily kill you. What makes you think that I need you to give me a chance? You have only one last second to make a choice! I am going to kill you now!”

”Wait!” Ye Xiao pointed two fingers up and said, ”The longer it takes, the better situation it is to you. You know that, don't you? As long as the guardians are gone, there is nothing I can do to hurt you. Since I don't hurry, why do you? You don't have to send us both to hell so soon!”

Bu Xiangfeng was shocked, and he said, ”What do you mean? Are you going to give up the only chance that can get me killed? Will you wait for tomorrow and let me kill you?”

Ye Xiao smiled and said, ”You are not the only one who wants to live a long life. I am too. I don't want to do it now, because I am trying to figure out a solution that can save both of us!”

Bu Xiangfeng was shocked. He automatically withdrew the murderous qi. Apparently, he did want to have a solution to save both sides as well.

After all, he wasn't in full power, so he was not sure he could escape the guardians after killing

Ye Xiao!

At the very least, even if Ye Xiao was just playing tricks, the longer it took, the better it was for

Bu Xiangfeng. No matter what happened next, Bu Xiangfeng could surely accept it.

Ye Xiao didn't hesitate, so he said, ”There is a simple way that can solve this problem. Just don't kill me! Don't think that I am bragging. I am not powerful, but I am rich. I can move. I can move to wherever I want to live. I can go and live around the guardians.

”I think you understand this. Money doesn't mean anything, but sometimes money solves all problems. I can get somewhere to live under the protection of the guardians, and trust me, it won't be difficult. You won't get to kill me, but I may become the biggest problem that tortures you in your heart. You can't kill me.”

Bu Xiangfeng was shocked.

After a while, he gritted his teeth and said, ”You are terrible! Money does solve many things!”

”I don't think I have a choice. I have to do it to save my life. Other than this, I can't think of

another way. Your life doesn't mean anything to me, so I won't exchange my life just for your death. That is such a stupid deal for me!”

Ye Xiao put down one of his two fingers that were pointing up, and said, ”Of course, it is not quite a satisfying solution for you. You may still want to kill me first. I can give you one thing in return if you keep me alive… I can give you one thing that you want.”

Bu Xiangfeng was shocked. He looked at Ye Xiao and said, ”What? What could you give me?” ”You want a perfect Farewell Sword, don't you? I can fix it, and I can enhance it! It will become

the true divine weapon.” Ye Xiao sounded indifferent, but what he just said was explosive.

”…” Bu Xiangfeng started to breathe heavily.

He stared at Ye Xiao and couldn't believe what the man just said.

”You don't believe me, because you don't think I have the power. Do you know why I am rich?” Ye Xiao blandly said, ”Simple. The five rare metals that were sold in the auction of the Brotherhood Alliance's salesroom belonged to me… I got all my money from the five metals!”

Bu Xiangfeng widely opened his eyes in shock and said, ”You? Was it you?”

”Yes, I am the owner!” Ye Xiao smiled and said, ”I got the rare metals, which means I know how to get more. We were enemies, and our lives are both in danger at the moment. I don't need to lie. I hate liars, and I am definitely not one.”

Ye Xiao looked at Bu Xiangfeng with confidence. When he talked, he sounded so proud and certain.

Bu Xiangfeng was shocked again. This must be a special day for him because he was shocked so many times.

”What do you think you can do for me?” Bu Xiangfeng stayed quiet for a while and asked.

When Ye Xiao started talking, the Dark Evil Spirit started to have a weird expression on his

eyes.

It was admiration… It was obedience…

As the Dark Evil Spirit looked at Bu Xiangfeng, the expression changed too.

When Ye Xiao started to talk, the Dark Evil Spirit started to feel relieved when he looked at Bu Xiangfeng.

'Just listen… Just keep listening to the young master… Listen to him, and we will all be safe…'

When Ye Xiao said half of the words, the Dark Evil Spirit felt totally relieved. When he looked at

Bu Xiangfeng, he thought, 'We are safe now. What a horrible man!'

When Bu Xiangfeng showed his murderous qi, the Dark Evil Spirit was surprised. 'How is this possible? The young master is good at persuasion. How could he fail this time? Was he too playful?'

When Ye Xiao started to talk about enhancing the Farewell Sword, the Dark Evil Spirit was thrilled up.

He thought, 'He still got the great persuasion technique! He is invincible! This is not an exception! This man is going to be fooled! This is it…'

When he heard Bu Xiangfeng asked what Ye Xiao could do for him, the Dark Evil Spirit already thought that Bu Xiangfeng was not an enemy anymore. 'Well, he is with us now. Boss Bu, please do take care of me…'

”It is easy to do this, but I need your word… and I need protection. Well, I need a guard.” Ye Xiao seriously looked at Bu Xiangfeng and sincerely said, ”After what just happened, I realized I am insecure.”

”You…” Bu Xiangfeng jumped up and pointed at his own nose and said with uncertainty, ”You… You… You young man… You… You are only at level three of the Faery Origin Stage! How dare you want me, the Farewell Sword, Bu Xiangfeng, to be your guard? Are you sure? Are you out of your mind? What is wrong with you?”

He seemed to be utterly humiliated and started to desperately fly into a rage.
