Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The challenge between Wu Wei and Nie Shujun came to an end just like that.
After the dust settled, the referee, Li Ru, and the others wanted to get close to Wu Wei to check on him.
After all, Wu Wei’s injury looked quite serious.
However, before they could get close, they were stopped by the little elf and the little mouse.
These two little fellows looked like they would bite anyone who dared to approach them, successfully scaring everyone away.
In the end, Li Ru managed to get to Wu Wei’s side because he was familiar with the two kids. After checking Wu Wei’s injuries, Li Ru took out a Level 51 Rare Grade Pill and fed it to Wu Wei.
Then, he picked Wu Wei up from the pool of blood.
“Teachers, Li Ru still has something to do today, so he’ll take his leave first!”
Li Ru picked up Wu Wei and bowed to the teachers. Then, she looked at Yuan Chu, who was acting shamelessly with Old Chun.
The cold gaze made Yuan Chu tremble. He subconsciously turned his head and saw that the gaze was from Li Ru.
As their eyes met, Li Ru said coldly, “I will definitely repay you for what you have given me today!”
After saying that, Li Ru turned around and left, not caring that Yuan Chu was still confused.
On Yuan Chu’s side, he looked at Li Ru’s back and fell into deep thought.
It wasn’t that he couldn’t understand what Li Ru meant.
What Yuan Chu couldn’t understand was why Li Ru would say this.
Did he really think that Wu Wei and Nie Shujun’s battle was his doing, which was why he said such harsh words?
But this wasn’t the Li Ru he knew!
According to Yuan Chu’s information on Li Ru, he didn’t sound like someone who would say such things. He was the kind of person who would hide his suspicions in his heart and silently look for an opportunity to kill you.
Such a direct style was closer to Dong Hu’s.
Also, Yuan Chu thought about it carefully. Li Ru’s actions these few days did not seem like his doing.
Was it because Wu Wei was too important to Xiliang? Li Ru’s concern made her confused?
Yuan Chu couldn’t figure it out!
Before he had a clue, Old Chun pushed him from behind.
“My Lord, you’ve schemed against us again? Did you instigate this battle today?”
Yuan Chu turned around and rolled his eyes at him.
“Don’t you know if I did it?”
“What are you saying? When have you ever schemed to bring me along? You always think I’m stupid and don’t bring me along to play!
Let me tell you, I’m actually quite smart!
If you hadn’t cheated just now, you would have lost!
He must have suspected you, but he didn’t have any evidence. Otherwise, he would have sued you directly. Why would he just threaten you like that?
In my opinion, if it really wasn’t for you, you would have to explain to someone…”
“What did you say?”
Yuan Chu was getting impatient with Old Chun’s nagging. He suddenly raised his eyebrows and interrupted Old Chun. Then, he narrowed his eyes. “Yes, we should indeed explain it to them!”
At this, moment, Yuan Chu seemed to understand what Li Ru meant.
On the other side, Li Ru carried Wu Wei back to Xiliang’s grocery store.
Li Ru was exhausted from the journey. He was a Warlock himself, and a Warlock who leaned towards magic. His Strength and Constitution were not high.
As for Wu Wei, although he looked quite thin, he had a physique limit of three. His weight was still very terrifying.
Li Ru was still panting when he carried her. If it wasn’t for Wu Wei who couldn’t stand it anymore and asked the little elf to help, Li Ru wouldn’t have been able to hold on to the Xiliang grocery store.
But even with the little elf’s help, Li Ru was still drenched in sweat when he arrived at Xiliang’s grocery store.
As for Wu Wei, he stopped pretending to be dead the moment he arrived at Western Liang. He got up and teased Li Ru, “Brother Li Ru, your body is not good enough. You have to train more. If you get close to someone during the battle, you can use your staff to hit them!”
Li Ru panted and rolled his eyes, “Have you seen that Mage fight in melee with his staff?”
“You have to train because you don’t have much talent. Think about it, if you train your muscles, in the future, if someone comes to you and thinks that they can kill you with a knife, you can directly explode your clothes and burst out with muscles.
In that situation, you didn’t even need to hit him. Just scaring him would scare him to death!”
Wu Wei had always liked this contrast.
Li Ru, who was panting, expressed that he would not comment on Wu Wei’s bad taste.
Wu Wei did not insist on this topic. Instead, he asked about something that he was more curious about. “Brother Li Ru, do you really suspect that Nie Shujun is backed by the Yuan family?”
“No!”
Li Ru shook his head without hesitation.
“Then what were you doing just now?”
Wu Wei wanted to ask why he said those harsh words to Yuan Chu, but halfway through his sentence, he narrowed his eyes. “I think I understand a little!”
“Oh?”
Li Ru raised his eyebrows.”
“There must be someone behind Nie Shujun’s insistence on me, and the person behind this is either for me or for Western Liang.
And you saw Nie Shujun’s final burst of power. He wanted to take me with him.
This meant that Nie Shujun and the people behind him didn’t care about my life or death. They even said that they wanted to kill me. In that case, it didn’t seem like they were doing it for me, but for the Western Liang grocery store.
“Because I didn’t offend anyone. It’s for my sake and my ability to create talismans. If I go for the money, I won’t be hurt. However, if I go for Xiliang, the situation might not be the same..”
