322 It’s Over
Even Xiao Mingyan’s biological parents didn’t care about him. But Ye Xuan, a person he’d only met once, took the initiative to come personally to help him. He was already very touched.
Not wanting to be a burden to Ye Xuan, Xiao Mingyan said coldly, “No matter what, I still have to thank you. You guys can go.”
After saying that, he lay back on the ground and closed his eyes as if he didn’t want to talk anymore.
“Don’t you believe me?”
Xiao Mingyan’s eyes dimmed. “Even if there’s a panacea, it can’t heal the wound in my heart since my root bone is gone. It can only heal the wounds on my body at most.”
He was very clear about his situation. The current him was no different from a cripple. Even if he had a panacea, it could not restore his foundation. At most, it would only make him like an ordinary person. However, it also meant that he would have no fate with cultivation.
Unless he grew another root bone, but it was impossible. How could a root bone grow so easily? Otherwise, Xiao Wuyou wouldn’t have gone through so much trouble and even resorted to unscrupulous means to obtain the supreme dragon bone.
Even if Xiao Mingyan had been reduced to this state, he did not want to be trampled on and bullied like an ordinary person. He would rather die to preserve his last bit of dignity.
“You can leave.”
Seeing Xiao Mingyan’s stubborn attitude, Ye Xuan was just about to say something when he sensed something. “I’m afraid I can’t leave even if I want to.”
An old voice suddenly sounded, “You have a good eye, kid.”
There was no one else around them, but the voice suddenly came out. A’tian couldn’t help but reveal a look of fear and looked around vigilantly.
“Who? Who’s talking?”
A wind blade silently attacked A’tian’s back. If it hit, he would be crippled even if he didn’t die.
A golden light surrounded A’tian, blocking the attack from the dark. Ye Xuan slowly retracted his hand. “Since you’re here, show yourself. It’s beneath you to sneak an attack.”
There was a distorted wave in the air, and four figures appeared in front of Ye Xuan. They all looked to be in their forties or fifties, but they looked kind. “You’re skillful, young man.”
The leader looked the oldest. He sized up Ye Xuan with a sharp aura and didn’t look like a good person.
The commotion attracted Xiao Mingyan’s attention. He frowned and said, “You guys are from the Zhao clan. What are you doing here?”
These people were the Zhao clan’s protectors. They had high status and they were all in the sky rank.
Zhao Qing and the others were originally ordered by Zhao Huaifeng to chase after Ye Xuan. At first, they thought that Zhao Huaifeng was making a mountain out of a molehill. It was just a young man who didn’t know his status. There was no need to send the four of them.
However, he did not expect to meet Xiao Mingyan here.
“So the news was true. Xiao Mingyan’s supreme dragon bone was taken away and he was even driven out of the Xiao clan. If we bring him back, he might be of use to the patriarch. This is a pleasant surprise.”
Xiao Mingyan was a good-for-nothing, so he wasn’t a threat to them. Naturally, they didn’t need to worry about him. They only needed to deal with Ye Xuan.
“Apart from Xiao Mingyan, the young master said to bring the two heads for him.”
They were here for Ye Xuan and A’tian! Xiao Mingyan was a little anxious. Zhao Huaifeng must have sent people to deal with them because he wanted to take revenge for the smallest grievance. He didn’t expect that he would send the four protectors of the Zhao clan here.
He might not be able to escape unscathed even if he wasn’t injured, let alone in this situation.
“I’ll go with you. Don’t make things difficult for them,” said Xiao Mingyan through gritted teeth.
Zhao Qing smiled sarcastically. “Young Master Xiao, you can’t even protect yourself. How can you care about others? This kid is someone our young master wants to kill.”
Xiao Mingyan knew that if they fell into the Zhao clan’s hands, they would not have a good ending. In any case, he was a person who was about to die. There was nothing to pity about having a cheap life. It was just that he had implicated Ye Xuan as well.
While he was frantically thinking about how to deal with this, Ye Xuan’s face was indifferent as if the matter had nothing to do with him. He ordered A’tian, “You help Xiao Mingyan to stand further away.”
It wouldn’t be good if the fight affected the two of them.
Zhao Qing and the others looked on coldly and let A’tian do what he wanted. They didn’t stop him. One of them had no cultivation, and the other was trash. It was easy to deal with them.
“Alright, you guys make your moves.”
Zhao Qing looked at Ye Xuan’s calm expression and was certain that he was pretending to be calm. “You’ve got guts, kid. Don’t say that we’re bullying you with numbers. Any one of us can deal with you easily.”
If the four of them attacked together, they would become a laughingstock. There was no need to use a sledgehammer to crack a nut. Zhao Qing would not do something that would lower his status.
After saying that, he gave the others a look. “Go and play with him.”
A middle-aged man in a green robe came forward. His brows and eyes were sharp. Even the air had a sharp edge as he walked.
Xiao Mingyan and A’tian were extremely worried.
“The four protectors of the Zhao clan are not to be trifled with. They each cultivate secret techniques and are extremely powerful. If Ye Xuan goes up against them, I’m afraid…”
Before he could finish, A’tian understood what he meant. “What are the chances of Young Master Ye winning?”
Xiao Mingyan’s expression was a little unsightly. He stretched out his hand to wave.
“Only half?”
Xiao Mingyan sighed, thinking that A’tian was too naive. “You’re thinking too much. Ye Xuan doesn’t even have a chance of winning against the one in front of him.”
He had not seen Ye Xuan’s true strength in the forest, so he did not know his strength.
It was too late for Ye Xuan to escape now. Zhao Qing and the others were not to be trifled with. He could only pray for a miracle to happen.
