Chapter 556

"I don't know about this either..." Ms. An's tone was low, "Although I was a senior executive of the branch, the headquarters didn't notify me in advance, nor did they give a reason. To this day, I still don't know the reason for it."

"I see." Xu Tian smiled apologetically, "Sorry, I shouldn't have asked so much."

"It's okay." An Hui Xian smiled, "I should be the one apologizing, pulling you to talk about so many unrelated things for no reason."

"No, I am also curious about Wuji Island and the Wuji Martial Arts Association, and I should thank Ms. An for broadening my horizons."

A place where experts are everywhere, which martial artist wouldn't yearn for it?

An Hui Xian had been silently observing Xu Tian's expression, and seeing that he was indeed ignorant and didn't look like he was deliberately hiding it, the last glimmer of hope in her heart also vanished.

"If Mr. Xu wants to know about Wuji Island, I can tell you in detail when I have the chance in the future."

"Thank you, Ms. An."

"You're welcome." An Hui Xian waved her hand affably, "Then I'll take my leave first."

After leaving the Lu family martial arts hall, Xu Tian took the six secret guards back to his villa in the suburbs.

Tang Bingyan was still at the company and hadn't finished work. Xu Tian let the secret guards wait for A Wei to return and arrange subsequent tasks, then went upstairs straight to Yun Moting's bedroom.

The six secret guards watched Xu Tian go upstairs, and only after they couldn't see his figure did they relax and surround each other to whisper.

"I really didn't expect Mr. Xu to look frail, but he's actually so powerful when he really makes a move."

"When I was chatting with those old secret guard members, I did hear them say that Mr. Xu has extraordinary skills..."

"I've heard of it too! And I heard that seniors Shi Yi and Su Jinchen were able to win at the last trial assembly because of his guidance."

"I've heard of it too, but I didn't believe it. I thought they wanted to flatter the family head's man and deliberately held back in the arena tournament."

"Before, Gu Xiansheng was recognized as the most talented in their circle. If he had a fight with Mr. Xu, who do you think would win?"

"I bet Mr. Xu wins."

"I also think Mr. Xu can win. Earlier, both Gu Xiansheng and Mr. Lu didn't beat that Easterner, but Mr. Xu cleaned them up obediently in two or three moves!"

The few people became more and more excited as they talked, not noticing at all that Tang Bingyan and A Wei had walked into the villa.

A Wei heard the discussion of those few secret guards, his mouth twitched, and a bad premonition arose in his heart.

How did they know Mr. Xu had good skills? Could it be that Mr. Xu personally went on stage to compete in the arena tournament?

He clearly remembered that Mr. Xu had promised his eldest lady that he wouldn't casually make a move against others.

"Hmph! Tanaka, that arrogant Easterner, didn't take us seriously before, but in the end, wasn't he beaten black and blue by Mr. Xu? If it weren't for the scruple of not signing a life-death contract, Mr. Xu could probably have beaten him to death directly!"

And just as he wanted to stop these few people from talking nonsense, they had already started to reminisce about the scene of Xu Tian beating Tanaka Saburo with great relish.

A Wei was shocked, and it was too late to stop them.

He carefully observed Tang Bingyan's expression, and at the same time, the endless discussion of the secret guards not far away came over again.

"Not just that Easterner, but also the Lu family successor Lu Feifan. Look at his arrogant appearance, as if he is the most powerful in the world and doesn't take anyone seriously. But what's the use of him being so crazy? Wasn't he still beaten by our Mr. Xu with no power to fight back?"

A Wei listened in fear and broke into a cold sweat, and Tang Bingyan's expression also sank.

She should have stopped Xu Tian and not let him go to the scene.

A Wei watched helplessly as the cold air emitted from Tang Bingyan's body became more and more intense. Just as he was about to speak to stop those few secret guards from continuing to court death, he was stopped by a look from Tang Bingyan.

A Wei had no choice but to silently retreat behind Tang Bingyan, while mourning for Mr. Xu and these few secret guards who hadn't realized the danger at all.

Tang Bingyan also took a step back. She and A Wei stood at the entrance. If you didn't turn your head specifically, you couldn't see them from the direction of the living room.

And the six secret guards were discussing how wonderful the arena tournament just now was, not realizing at all that Tang Bingyan had returned.

"But I can't figure it out, since Mr. Xu is so powerful, why didn't he make a move at the beginning?"

"It's understandable, after all, compared to him, everyone else is too weak. I guess Mr. Xu felt that this kind of completely crushing duel was boring."

"This is also understandable. With Mr. Xu's strength, fighting in the arena with those people is simply a max-level boss bullying the novice village. No wonder he didn't go on stage no matter how Lu Feifan provoked him at the beginning."

"But since Mr. Xu had already made up his mind not to make a move, he could have directly forfeited even if he went on stage, and he didn't intend to go on stage even when the Easterner asked him to go on stage several times, then why did he change his mind later?"

The few secret guards recalled the situation at the scene. At that time, Xu Tian had clearly intended to take them away, and didn't intend to make a move against Tanaka Saburo when he was blocked, but later...

They recalled that at that time, Tanaka Saburo kept provoking him and said many unpleasant things. Even so, Xu Tian didn't intend to make a move at the beginning.

A Wei heard the conversation of those few people and roughly figured out what happened at the arena tournament. It seems that Mr. Xu made a move for a reason this time. Originally, he was going to abide by the agreement with the eldest lady not to go on the arena.

A Wei touched his heart that was beating restlessly and breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Mr. Xu violated the agreement with the eldest lady, this could be considered excusable. Even if the eldest lady was angry, it shouldn't lead to a quarrel.

"I remember now, at the beginning, Tanaka Saburo insulted Mr. Xu, but Mr. Xu didn't even frown, and didn't take those arrogant words to heart at all." One of the secret guards said, "But later, that Easterner seemed to have spoken ill of the family head."

"Yes, yes, yes!" The secret guard beside him immediately echoed, "I remember now too. Could it be that Mr. Xu made a move because Tanaka Saburo spoke ill of the family head?"

The six secret guards looked at each other, suddenly realizing that they seemed to have accidentally spoken the truth.

It turns out that Mr. Xu, who looks gentle and low-key, is actually a wife-protecting maniac. It's truly not judging a book by its cover.

"Actually, I think Mr. Xu might still not want the Easterners to belittle our Huaxia martial artists." Li Xiaodao, who had no presence since the discussion started, said weakly.

He would rather believe that Xu Tian made a move to maintain the dignity of Huaxia martial artists.
