Chapter 758: Is there really something wrong with that person?

~8 min read 1,448 words

Speaking of which, that girl Zhong Yu is really bold. How dare she ask for so much money? Isn't she afraid that Qiao Jing Tian will recognize her and make her unable to return?

In this wilderness, you could even find a place to bury a body on the spot.

However, according to Qiao Jing Tian's style of doing things, as long as Zhong Yu wasn't from an ancient family, then it was estimated that as long as she didn't provoke Qiao Jing Tian, she should be safe.

"Sit wherever you want." Qiao Jing Tian leaned crookedly on the sofa again and closed his eyes, without any self-awareness as the owner.

Xu Tian saw that the only sofa in the living room was occupied by Qiao Jing Tian, searched around, and couldn't find a place to sit.

He simply didn't sit anymore; anyway, he didn't come to visit today.

"Mr. Qiao, I have another matter to find you for." He was worried that Qiao Jing Tian would fall asleep directly, so he raised his volume.

"Do you have any relationship with that Thorn Emperor?"

"No relationship." Qiao Jing Tian answered crisply.

"Really no relationship?" Xu Tian confirmed uneasily. "There are rumors that you are brothers..."

Qiao Jing Tian spoke again: "I have no brothers or sisters."

"Then I can rest assured..." Xu Tian whispered.

"What?"

"Nothing, it's just that the Thorn Emperor doesn't seem to take you seriously." Xu Tian still felt that with Qiao Jing Tian coming forward, his chances of winning would be greater.

"Now everyone outside says he is the strongest martial artist on Wuji Island. Don't you want to teach him a lesson?"

"I don't want to." Qiao Jing Tian answered crisply. "I have no interest in empty fame."

"Is this a question of empty fame? It's fine if others think so, but the most important thing is that the Thorn Emperor doesn't take you seriously either, and even said that your strength is not as exaggerated as rumored, and is not even one-tenth of his. If you two were to fight, he could kill you in two moves..."

"Mr. Qiao, he looks down on you so much, don't you mind at all?"

"It just so happens that he is attending a public event this afternoon. If it's not convenient for you to come forward, Mr. Qiao, I can go warn him on your behalf..."

Xu Tian knew that this method seemed a bit despicable, but he really wasn't sure he could handle the Thorn Emperor alone.

As long as Qiao Jing Tian nodded, even if he didn't come forward, he would have an excuse when the time came.

However, Qiao Jing Tian remained unmoved by his provocation.

"No need."

Xu Tian:...

So calm, why not just become a monk?

Xu Tian

had previously heard Yun Shuying and the others say that Qiao Jing Tian only took action against ancient families. For other forces or individuals, as long as it didn't touch his bottom line, he was generally too lazy to pay attention.

However, he didn't expect the other party to be so Buddhist to this extent.

"Mr. Qiao, you really don't want to teach those who disrespect you a lesson?"

"I don't want to." Qiao Jing Tian paused and added, "However, I would very much like to teach the people of the ancient families a lesson. If you know the whereabouts of one of their elders, just tell me directly."

Xu Tian looked up at the sky speechlessly.

How could he know the whereabouts of those old guys? And even if he did, he couldn't tell Qiao Jing Tian.

Otherwise, those ancient families would be the first to come to him to settle accounts, and along with Qiao Jing Tian's account, it would all be counted on him.

The atmosphere in the villa was once very awkward.

"Do you want to drink?" Qiao Jing Tian suddenly said again. "I improved the formula this time."

"Wine?" Xu Tian was stunned for two seconds before reacting. The other party should be talking about the fruit juice he prepared. "Give me a glass."

Qiao Jing Tian got up and went to the kitchen to take out a strange, slender bottle.

"This bottle is all for you. Don't drink it all at once; this wine has a very high alcohol content."

Xu Tian thought to himself, no matter how high the alcohol content of the wine you mix is, how high can it be? He didn't take it seriously.

This liquid, which was basically no different from fruit juice, wasn't even qualified to quench thirst.

But he didn't want to spoil the fun, so he said casually: "Such good wine, I have to go back and make a few dishes before drinking it."

"Hmm, then go back. I'm going to sleep." Qiao Jing Tian issued an order to evict the guest.

"Bye." Xu Tian was about to walk out with the bottle when Qiao Jing Tian suddenly spoke again.

"Wait!"

"What else?" Xu Tian paused. "Do you want to teach the Thorn Emperor a lesson again?"

"No." Qiao Jing Tian sat up from the sofa. "I took on an apprentice. His name is Yun Moting, and he is a child of the Yun family, one of the three great families on Wuji Island."

"Yun Moting?" Xu Tian was startled.

Mo Mo was actually the Sissy's apprentice?

What kind of evil fate is this!

But why did the other party suddenly mention his apprentice to him? Could it be that he wanted to introduce them to each other?

He stared at Qiao Jing Tian silently, waiting for the other party to continue.

"He was just born when his parents sent him back to the Yun family. He had never seen them. But some time ago, his biological father

came back, but he felt that the man didn't look like his father, so he wanted me to investigate the man's true identity for him."

Xu Tian understood.

Mo Mo had always regarded him as his biological father and had a repulsive emotion toward his biological father. Originally, he thought this repulsive emotion would slowly fade with time.

But if that so-called biological father really had a problem, it wouldn't be strange for the little guy's clever brain to notice it.

It was just that Qiao Jing Tian had actually taken Yun Moting as an apprentice; this news was indeed a bit shocking to him.

Since arriving on Wuji Island, Xu Tian had been as low-key as possible, hoping only to find Tang Bingyan as soon as possible and then take her back to Huaxia. He didn't want to have any relationship with any other forces or families.

But the current situation didn't seem to be under his control.

"Then Mr. Qiao, have you investigated for him?" Xu Tian asked.

"No." Qiao Jing Tian shook his head. "It's not convenient for me to come forward."

"Not convenient?"

"Hmm, my principle is not to participate in the grievances between any forces or families other than ancient families. You usually do business, and your channels for inquiring about news should be quite broad, so I want to ask you to help me check."

Xu Tian didn't respond immediately.

His identity seemed even less suitable for interfering in this matter.

After all, Mo Mo had always regarded him as his biological father, which led to Madam Yun and the young master of the Yun family being hostile to him.

If he went to investigate the situation of Mo Mo's biological father, it would inevitably be thought that he was inciting Mo Mo not to recognize his biological father, or even having other motives.

But if that person was really a fake, then for Mo Mo, it was equivalent to having a time bomb by his side.

Lacking the companionship of fatherly love was always better than being used and hurt by someone with ulterior motives. Therefore, although his situation was awkward, if it was for Mo Mo, he was still willing to investigate carefully.

"Mr. Qiao, is there really something wrong with that person?" Xu Tian pondered for a moment and asked.

"I don't know about that either." Qiao Jing Tian answered truthfully. "Actually, apart from those ancient families, I don't know much about other families and forces on Wuji Island. As for that Young Master Yun, I basically don't know him at all, let alone know what's wrong with him."

"And it is precisely because of this that I want to ask Mr. Xu to check for me. After all, you usually do business, and you know more people than I do, so it's convenient to investigate." ===== CHAPTER 759 =====
