Li Xiang the Immortal
54 - Following

By the time it was almost afternoon, Li Xiang returned back to the restaurant. He had enough fun today with his cat. "The restaurant closed early?" He said as he looked at Cao Fang who was currently sitting on one of the buyer's seats.

Cao Fang raised his bowed face, "Young Master?!" He immediately approached Li Xiang.

Li Xiang raised next to his brows, "You look worried. What's up?"

"Master and Miss.." Cao Fang now began to tell me about the incident this afternoon. He said that Xiao Xing Fu and Bai Nuan were taken by people from the sky sword sect. "They seemed to be saying about the matchmaking and Miss Bai confessed in front of the person that you were her lover. Not long after, they brought Master and Miss Bai along. I heard they were going to take him before their Patriarch."

"Gosh.." Li Xiang sighed. "Then, I'll catch up with–"

Braakkk

The door opened hard from the outside. Some people go inside. The person at the very front was the son of the Mayor, Yan Fai.

"Where is he?!" Said Yan Fai loudly while staring at Cao Fang.

"Young Master Yan.." Cao Fang was surprised. He thought, Yan Fai is not going to this restaurant anymore to drive his Master out of the city. But it turns out he was wrong.

Li Xiang turned his body around to look at the person who had just entered the restaurant, "Why did you guys enter arrive? The restaurant is closed. Don't you see the writing outside?"

Yan Fai immediately looked at the teenager, "Be quiet! Don't interfere in my business! I'm here to find the owner of this restaurant!"

"Why are you looking for my brother?"

"You're his sister?" Yan Fai looked at Li Xiang from top to bottom, "You don't resemble him at all."

"Sister and sister should have the same face? You think we're twins?" Said Li Xiang lazily.

"Cih, tell me where your brother is?! I have business with him!"

Li Xiang glanced at Cao Fang, as if asking what the matter was. "Um. earlier Master expelled Young Master Yan because Master felt Young Master Yan had already demeaned Miss Bai."

"My brother's not here right now. He's gone. You better get out of here." Ketus Li Xiang's.

Yan Fai became furious, "How dare you kick me out! You must have hidden it! All of you, search this place and find the man with blue eyes!"

However, the person behind Yan Fai did not move either. They just shut up. Yan Fai immediately looked back because his person did not move as well. "What's wrong with you guys?! Quickly search all over this place and find him!"

"We-we just back off. No matter how much you pay us, we don't want to." Said one of the five people hired by Yan Fai.

"What do you mean?! Why are you guys being such cowards?! I've paid you! So follow my orders!" Angry Yan Fai.

The five people behind him remained silent. They seem to be afraid of someone.

Li Xiang smiled sinisterly, "Your subordinates are not following what you want. Now what are you gonna do?" He lifted his chin, as if to show his arrogance.

"Currently, you are useless! Then I'll be the one looking for him!"

As Yan Fai was about to make a move, Li Xiang extended his one hand to the side as if blocking Yan Fai from getting inside. "You think I'm just gonna let you in?" Li Xiang smiled. He also glanced at the five people who were subordinates of Yan Fai. "I just remembered. You were robbers who wanted to rob me and threaten me then. Why are you guys here? Any business with me?" He widens the smile.

"T-no, no. We have no intention of finding trouble with you. Really am. We're gonna go. J-so please forgive us." Say the fifth while prostrating.

"Keep away from me! Don't block me!" Yan Fai held Li Xiang's hand for the teenager to step aside. However, Li Xiang simply stayed in place.

"I'll forgive you if you take this man away and you should teach him a lesson for harassing me. And one more thing, you never set foot in this restaurant again if you still want to live." Said Li Xiang flatly.

"Hell right! We'll do it soon, thank you Young Master!" The five people immediately restrained Yan Fai's body and pulled him out.

"Hey, what are you doing?! Unhand me! Why did you obey the boy?! I paid you guys! You're supposed to obey my words, not the boy's!" Annoyed Yan Fai. He tried to rebel. But he was even beaten.

Bugh

"Shut up!" Say one of the five. They dragged Yan Fai though the fat man continued to rebel to escape.

Cao Fang who had since noticed was astonished by what had happened. It should have been him and Li Xiang who were beaten up completely by Yan Fai's subordinates. However it turned out that Yan Fai was beaten by his own subordinates. "Young Master.. This.. what happened? How could they obey Young Master's words?"

Li Xiang turned to look at Cao Fang and smiled childishly, "I only gave them my money when they robbed me. So they now want to return the favor."

Li Xiang waved his right hand at chest level, "Of course not. I was just playing. But they just believe what I say. They're stupid. So I can lie to them easily."

"Then..how about Master and Miss Bai, Young Master?"

Li Xiang gave the cat in his hand to Cao Fang, "I leave my cat to you. Take good care of him. I'll catch up with them. They're in the sky sword sect aren't they?"

Cao Fang received the cat that Li Xiang gave him, "Yes, Young Master. But what is the sky sword sect close to this city? How will Young Master get there? Does Young Master know the place?"

Meoww

Li Xiang stroked the head of the cat that was in Cao Fang's hands at the moment. The cat poked its head against Li Xiang's hand, as if it did not want to be left behind. "Sorry, you should be with Fang now. Because I have to catch up with my brother. I'll be back later."

Meoww

Li Xiang looked back at Cao Fang, "I'll ask the person where it is. So you don't have to worry. Anyway, I have money. Since when was my brother taken by them?"

"Since this afternoon, Young Master. Not long after we opened the restaurant back."

"alright. Well, then, you keep this restaurant as long as I'm gone. You can stay in this place. You don't have to open a restaurant. Just need to take care of him. You can stay in this place for a while too. There's money under my bed. You can use it. No need to return it." Li Xiang walked away to the door.

"Then be careful, Young Master and thank you. I'll also keep your cat as good as possible."

"Good."

Meoww

The black cat in Cao Fang's hand could only stare at Li Xiang's departure.

Elsewhere, in the neutral flow sect, the sky sword. Xiao Xing Fu was currently sitting under a shady tree near the training field. Her clothes looked a little dusty and there were slight patches of blood on some of her clothes. He had just finished fighting with some cultivators from this sect. He did it by force. Bai Nuan had already asked her for help to pretend to be her lover.

Xiao Xing Fu was able to arrive at this sect quickly because the people who brought him had teleportation papers and because of that, they could arrive at the sect in the blink of an eye.

"I'm sorry for dragging you into my troubles." Said Bai Nuan sitting beside him. He lowered his head because he felt guilty. Moreover, Xiao Xing Fu had to fight with many cultivators in his sect.

Initially when they came, they were brought before the Patriarch or could be said to be the father of Bai Nuan. Bai Nuan himself admitted that Xiao Xing Fu was his lover. So he told his father not to marry him to his private student.

Every time Xiao Xing Fu wanted to reject what Bai Nuan said, the girl cut her words. So he could just shut up and listen to all the conversations to find out what was going on. After that, he understood. Bai Nuan's father wanted to marry Bai Nuan to his private disciple. Bai Nuan was only 17 years old and she did not want to get married.

Then Bai Nuan's father wanted to test Xiao Xing Fu's strength by making him fight against the many disciples in the sect. Then the result, he could defeat all of them despite getting some injuries.

Bai Nuan's father was greatly amazed by Xiao Xing Fu's strength. But he said he wanted the young man to fight with his private disciple whom he wanted to marry Bai Nuan. So he gave time for Xiao Xing Fu to rest for now before fighting with his student on the match field.

Bai Nuan's father had already given Xiao Xing Fu a room to rest. But the young man refused and preferred to rest near the field where he fought earlier.

"I just don't want to get married now. And also, I don't love my father's students even if he's a good man." Said Bai Nuan with his head bowed.

Xiao Xing Fu sighed, "You are indeed very annoying. Well then, I won't lose to that man lest you be forced to marry him." He said with a slightly irregular breath.

Bai Nuan was surprised. He lifted his head back, "Why do you want to help me?"

"I don't want to help you. I just want to help your father's student so he doesn't marry you. After all, he would definitely have a hard time facing such a stubborn and shameless woman like you." Xiao Xing Fu said lightly.

Bai Nuan was now expression irritated. He directly hit Xiao Xing Fu on the head, "You are indeed annoying!"

Xiao Xing Fu stroked his bumpy head, "Don't hit me! I just fought and I got hurt. Then you add it!"

Bai Nuan threw an annoyed face, "Leave it. It's your fault too!"

Hii! Sorry if there are so many mistakes in this book. Moreover, the typo problem that may always be in every chapter and make you uncomfortable🙏

Maybe some think this novel is like not connecting or boring because the plot is just straight like a highway without any problems like in other novels. The author actually makes the conflict in the middle and near the end of the story. But starting from here the 'maybe' conflict will start. Hope you can be entertained by the novel the author created. Although the story is not as good as the other novels🙂and the slow plot+boring. Soviet~
