Shenwu Yutianlei
Chapter 12 Rescue
"Old man, I think you are not going to accept my toast and want to be punished, right? You want ten thousand taels of silver for this broken sword of yours?" The lackey beside Wu Qinghao said with an unhappy look on his face.
"Hmph, if you want to buy the knife in my hand, leave the spirit stone. If you don't want to buy it, leave quickly. I don't want to get entangled with you." The old man Li Xiangyuan might have some concerns, and his words did not sound like a Foundation Establishment Realm expert at all.
"Li Xiangyuan, don't make a mistake." A middle-aged man walked out from Wu Qinghao's side. From the aura he exuded, it was not difficult to tell that he was another ninth-level Qi Refining Realm expert. "Do you think you are still the Foundation Establishment expert you were before? It's an honor for you that our young master likes your broken sword. If you know what's good for you, leave the sword and go. Otherwise..."
"What else can I do? Although I am no longer as brave as I used to be, I am still not someone you rats can bully at will." Li Xiangyuan obviously also has a temper, and the dignity of the strong cannot be trampled upon.
"Wait a minute, do it!"
Just when the situation was about to break out and the two sides were about to fight, a voice came from the crowd.
Shen Yun walked out of the restaurant and saw Li Xiangyuan surrounded by Wu family's eldest son Wu Qinghao and others, so he quickly spoke out to stop them.
Li Xiangyuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this voice. He was not afraid of fighting with others, but he was seriously injured and it was not appropriate to fight to avoid aggravating his injuries.
Wu Qinghao also relaxed when he heard this voice. Although they had shouted fiercely just now, they were facing Li Xiangyuan, a former foundation-building expert. If they really started fighting, if Li Xiangyuan suddenly attacked them and stabbed them, it would be a loss.
"Who are you? How dare you interfere in my affairs?" Wu Qinghao asked.
Shen Yun glanced at Wu Qinghao, smiled slightly, and decided to win people over with virtue. He said softly: "I am Shen Yun from the Shen family, and my father is Shen Batian, who is at the middle stage of foundation building."
"What Shen Yun? I've never heard of him. Get out of my way, otherwise..." Before Wu Qinghao could finish his words, the guard beside him quickly covered his mouth with his hand and whispered a few words to him.
Wu Qinghao's eyes widened after hearing this, and he quickly changed his expression, saying with a full smile: "So it was Young Master Shen Yun who came to my face. I am so rude."
"Young Master Wu is so majestic!" Shen Yun looked at Wu Qinghao with a smile, a hint of teasing in his eyes.
"I dare not, I dare not, what can Master Shen do here?" Wu Qinghao, who had already reacted at this moment, hurriedly showed weakness. Although he was a little annoyed, he quickly put on a smile. Although Shen Yun was just a waste in the Shen family, his father Shen Batian was a strong man in the middle stage of the foundation building realm, more powerful than the ancestor of the Wu family. If you provoke his son, isn't that courting death? Although Wu Qinghao was stubborn, he was not stupid. In this world where the strong are respected, he still knew who he could provoke and who he couldn't.
"This person has some connection with me. I don't know how he has offended Young Master Wu, so that Young Master Wu has to send so many people to surround him." Shen Yun went straight to the point.
Wu Qinghao was also a smart man. After he learned that Shen Yun intended to intervene in the matter, he decisively chose to admit his mistake, "It's a misunderstanding. It's really a flood that has washed away the Dragon King Temple. Mr. Shen, look at this. It's all my fault for not being sensible. I will come to your house to apologize someday."
"There's no need to apologize. Fortunately, it didn't cause too much trouble. How about just letting it go?" Shen Yun gave Wu Qinghao a way out.
Wu Qinghao quickly took the opportunity and said, "Yes, yes, Mr. Shen said exactly what I was thinking. Oh, by the way, I suddenly remembered that my mother is waiting for me to go home for dinner, so I won't disturb Mr. Shen for now, and I'll take my leave now."
Shen Yun nodded slightly and said, "Master Wu, please do as you please."
Then, Wu Qinghao left with his men in disgrace.
Li Xiangyuan looked at Shen Yun gratefully and said, "Thank you, Mr. Shen, for helping me out. If it weren't for you, I would have suffered a great loss today."
Shen Yun smiled and shook his head, saying, "Senior, you are too polite. I have heard a little about your deeds. Since I am lucky enough to meet you today, I should sit down and have a few drinks."
Li Xiangyuan laughed and said, "In that case, I will respectfully obey your command."
At this time, Zhao Cheng just emerged from the crowd, biting a big chicken leg in his mouth, muttering incoherently, "Master, don't run so fast, I can't catch up with you."
Shen Yun looked at Zhao Cheng's funny appearance and couldn't help laughing: "You are a foodie, you only know how to eat."
"Senior, please."
"Mr. Shen, please."
Then the three of them returned to the food pavilion again. This time, instead of sitting in the lobby, Shen Yun directly asked for a private room.
After three rounds of drinking, Li Xiangyuan told Shen Yun about the conflict with the eldest son of the Wu family.
Since Li Xiangyuan was infected with the fire poison five years ago, he has spent all his savings to buy high-level spiritual medicines in the past few years, hoping to remove the fire poison. Unfortunately, he has not been able to achieve his wish even after spending all his wealth. Not only that, in order to suppress the fire poison, his cultivation has been reduced to one tenth of what it was, and now he has only the strength of the peak of the ninth level of Qi Refining Realm.
In order to slow down the spread of the poisonous fire, Li Xiangyun tried not to fight with anyone. After several years, he had nothing left except this damaged second-grade inferior long sword in his hand.
He wanted to sell it today to get some money to buy pills to suppress the poisonous fire in his body, but he encountered the eldest son of the Wu family who wanted to bully others and steal the long sword. If Shen Yun hadn't appeared in time to rescue him, he would have had to fight with the eldest son of the Wu family today. However, afterward, I am afraid that the poisonous fire in his body will spread faster.
After saying this, Li Xiangyuan poured another glass of wine into his mouth.
"I have to thank Mr. Shen for helping me out today." Li Xiangyuan offered a glass of wine to Shen Yun.
"You are too polite, Senior. As cultivators, we should help those who are injustice when we see them. You don't have to take it to heart."
Good man, this is what Li Xiangyuan thinks of Shen Yun at this moment.
"Now that this matter has been resolved, I wonder what your plans are next?" Shen Yun drank the wine in the glass and asked casually.
"Hahaha, for a useless person like me, it makes no difference whether I have cultivation or not. Plus, I need pills every month to suppress the poisonous fire in my body. No one would be willing to take me in even if I work as a housekeeper. Fortunately, I have no worries in my life. As for the future, I'll just take it one day at a time." Li Xiangyuan picked up the wine jug and poured it straight into his mouth.
A feeling of hero's old age arose spontaneously. Shen Yun could feel that Li Xiangyuan was unwilling to accept this, but he could do nothing about it.
Li Xiangyuan drank up the wine in the pot and sat down quietly again. He was unwilling to give in.
"If you don't mind, how about coming to my Shen family?"
