A Valiant Life

Right now, Zhao Xuan wasn’t the only one stunned. Even the martial arts experts were stunned as they wondered what the f*ck was going on. Meanwhile, Zhao Xuan was cursing in his heart.

Is he trying to screw me over?

If I knew it was Master Lin, I wouldn’t come here even if I were beaten to death.

But isn’t Master Lin in Shanghai? Why is he suddenly in Haojiang?

This is completely f*cked up!

“Hey, what are you guys trying to do?” Lin Fan put down his chopsticks and turned over. “Are you trying to pick a fight?”

He didn’t recognize these people but he could tell from one look that they were skilled in Kung Fu. However, he hadn’t expected them to be someone’s thugs.

One of the big men immediately waved his hand as he said, “We wouldn’t dare! Master Lin, this is a misunderstanding. We really aren’t trying to do anything.”

He was dumbfounded right now. Pick a fight?

How brave must someone be to dare to pick a fight with Master Lin? One must have a death wish to do that!

Back then, they had been there at Kunlun Mountain. Master Lin’s performance on stage had left them mesmerized. That scene would even float up in their minds if they were to close their eyes right now.

If they were to fight Master Lin, they would probably end up in the hospital.

But the most important part was that if Master Lin were to expose this incident to the public, they could forget about living anymore.

They would probably get flamed to death by the other martial artists.

After all, Master Lin was recognized as the best in the world; the chief of the martial arts circles.

Now, there were constantly people travelling to Shanghai to request Master Lin’s help to complete their martial arts. In martial arts, this was considered a great favor and they would never be able to repay it.

Looking at the situation, Zhao Xuan was completely stunned. He didn’t even know what to do anymore.

However, he felt that it might be a pretty good idea to run away now.

“What are you doing? Don’t go.”

Just as Zhao Xuan began to move, the opposite party told him to stop.

“What do you want?” Zhao Xuan looked at Lin Fan. “Am I not allowed to leave?”

Lin Fan shook his head. “You are very problemsome. You cannot leave.”

“What does me leaving have to do with you?” Zhao Xuan didn’t heed Lin Fan’s words. Instead, he wanted to leave anyway. If he stayed any longer, who knew what would happen?

However, just as he moved his feet, the big men that he had brought here stopped him.

“Master Lin didn’t let you leave, so you cannot leave.” The big man who was trained in Hong Quan held onto Zhao Xuan, not letting him go.

“F*ck. Let go of me. Let me go!”

Zhao Xuan struggled as he yelled. He wanted to leave but his skinny and frail body was no match for these big men. He had no choice but to be kept there.

“What the f*ck is going on?” In the distance, Ma Shao Hao was dumbfounded. That arrogant guy from before had been suppressed by his own men. It didn’t make any f*cking sense.

He wanted to see that Lin get beaten up but he hadn’t expected Zhao Xuan’s own men to turn against him. This made him a little disappointed in Zhao Xuan.

He felt that this guy was quite pathetic.

Jin Meng was astonished as well. She could see a sense of reverence in those big men’s eyes.

She knew that Master Lin was powerful but she hadn’t expected that these big, strong men would feel reverence towards him. There was definitely some kind of story behind this.

“You’re a Hong Quan practitioner?”

That big man nodded. “Master Lin, you have great vision. I am indeed a Hong Quan practitioner.”

“Why are you working together with this kind of person?” asked Lin Fan. Martial artists these days would usually earn money by doing performances. Otherwise, they would become bodyguards or private thugs for tycoons.

Just look at Fraud Tian. He was so proficient in Ba Gua Zhang, but it was useless. He still had to become a fortune-teller in the end.

If one were lucky enough to become the bodyguard of a tycoon, it would be a pretty good choice.

There were some martial artists who didn’t have very impressive physiques. Even if they wanted to become bodyguards of celebrities, they might not be wanted. Those celebrities only wanted bodyguards with intimidating physiques. After all, those people with frail-looking bodies wouldn’t be able to fend off waves of crazy fans.

“I’m just working to earn a living,” said the big man helplessly. Sometimes, he really felt that these days were pathetic.

They were strong fighters. To some evil-minded people, they were pretty useful.

“I’ll talk to you guys later.” Lin Fan didn’t question him any further. Instead, he turned to Zhao Xuan. “You’re from Hong Kong, aren’t you?”

“Let me go.”

Zhao Xuan struggled so much that his face was beet red. He hadn’t expected this to happen.

“Xue Yao, you have to be wary of this person,” said Lin Fan.

Xue Yao was startled and she couldn’t quite understand. But since Brother Lin had spoken, she would naturally take note of it.

“Ma Shao Hao.”

At that moment, Jin Meng saw that figure in the distance and instantly understood what was going on. She yelled his name.

Ma Shao Hao, who had wanted to retreat, heard her voice. Then, his expression changed. He hadn’t expected to be revealed.

Yun Xue Yao took a deep breath, then shouted, “Ma Shao Hao, I’ll call your father.”

“F*ck!”

When Ma Shao Hao heard that, he instantly panicked. The feeling was as if he had done badly on a school exam and his parents were being called.

“Hey, Yun Xue Yao, is there a need to call my father? If there’s something to talk about, let’s talk nicely.”

“I admit that this was my fault. I was wrong. This Zhao Xuan is here to help me as well. Handsome brother, I apologize. I’ll pretend that nothing happened, is that alright?”

He was genuinely afraid now. If Yun Xue Yao were to call his father, he would probably be yelled at. More importantly, he couldn’t let his father find out about his collaboration with Zhao Xuan.

It was a secret.

Lin Fan said, “Xue Yao, I think you should call his father. This situation is a little complicated.”

“Alright, Brother Lin.” Yun Xue Yao nodded and immediately dialled the number on her phone.

“Don’t call him.” When Ma Shao Hao saw this, his face turned completely pale. If she were to really call his father, he would be f*cked. He immediately tried to snatch the phone over.

However, that big man next to him grabbed Ma Shao Hao.

“Don’t move. Otherwise, I’ll beat you.”

Ma Shao Hao growled, “F*ck! Do you know who I am? You dare to hit me?”

But at that moment, the call went through.

“Hello, Uncle Ma, this is Xue Yao. Ma Shao Hao is causing trouble here and things have gotten a little complicated. I’m not too clear about the situation, but Master Lin knows.”

“Yes, it’s Master Lin of Shanghai.”

“Alright, we’ll wait for you then.”

When Ma Shao Hao heard that conversation, he suddenly felt weak. Then, he glared at Yun Xue Yao.

“You’ve gone overboard. This is between us. Was there a need to tell my father?”
