What Do You Call a Benevolent and Reasonable Person in Xianxia? An Impossibility! (BTTH) Chapter 94: Helping You Remember

While everyone present was stunned by the negative emotions emanating from Xiao Yan, he suddenly let out a sigh of relief, and the negative emotions on his body quietly dissipated, making everyone think that the overwhelming sensation they had just experienced was an illusion.

Xiao Yan glanced lightly at Mu Li, his eyes calm and unperturbed.

Mu Li was already on his hit list, and Xiao Yan definitely intended to kill him. However, not now.

Mu Lis father, Mu She, was here, and Xiao Yan couldnt match the strength of a Da Dou Shi (Battle Grandmaster, 4th Level).

Besides, his purpose for coming today was not to kill Mu Li, but to resolve another, more important matter. He couldnt afford to mix up priorities.

Xiao Yan put the Heavy Black Ruler back on his back and then clasped his hands together, bowing to Mu She.

Junior Xiao Yan, pays respect to Commander Mu.

Regardless of whether the rumors were spread by Mu Shes orders or not, Xiao Yan would show courtesy to Mu She. This was just basic manners.

Of course, the extent of respect in his gesture depended entirely on Mu Shes perspective.

Xiao Yan

Mu She recited Xiao Yans na coldly, unable to comprehend how all the negative emotions emanating from Xiao Yan had suddenly vanished, and now he was showing such courtesy.

What exactly is he thinking?

Mu She couldnt fathom Xiao Yans thoughts, and just as he was pondering, Xiao Yan spoke again.

Commander Mu, may I ask how much the gate of your fortress cost to make?

Huh? The gate?

Xiao Yans inquiry left Mu She montarily stunned.

In his mind, he had imagined several possible actions and words that Xiao Yan might do or say, including but not limited to reprimanding his son Mu Li and criticizing the rumor, though there was no evidence, that they had spread.

However, Mu She never expected that Xiao Yans first question would be about the cost of their fortresss gate.

Mu Shes mind was truly blank for a mont.

After a while, he slightly regained his senses, but perhaps his mind was still sowhat muddled. He turned his head to ask a nearby rcenary, Hey, how much did that gate cost?

R- Right, Commander. The gate cost around five thousand

What? Just five thousand? Hearing the answer, Mu She seed to have just realized the price, glaring at the rcenary. What is this gate? Its the face of the Wolf Head rcenary Company! Why was so little money spent on it?

Well this gate has been there since you first established the rcenary corps in Qingshan Town. At that ti, the Wolf Head rcenary Company had just been established and was strapped for cash. So, wherever they could save money in the fortress, they did. Moreover, the gate hasnt broken in so many years, so it wasnt replaced

The rcenarys words ca to an abrupt stop as he noticed Mu Shes gaze shifting behind him. Mu She also followed his gaze and saw the deep dent on the side of the gate.

Without a doubt, it was caused by Xiao Yans strike with the Heavy Black Ruler just now.

Apologies, I made too much noise when knocking on the door. I hope Commander Mu can forgive .

Xiao Yan spoke like this and took out a gold coin card from his Storage Ring, tossing it to Mu She. Mu She caught it steadily, his eyebrows slightly furrowing.

Whats this?

This gold coin card contains sixty thousand gold coins. Fifty thousand are for compensating the loss of the gate, and the remaining ten thousand are for the labor cost of replacing the gate. Please accept it.

Xiao Yans answer left Mu She completely stunned, staring blankly at Xiao Yan, who had a serious expression.

To be honest, ever since Xiao Yan killed mbers of the Wolf Head rcenary Company, there had been no room for reconciliation between the two of them.

As a rcenary corps commander, if his subordinates were killed, and he couldnt even avenge them, who would follow him? Moreover, the person who killed his subordinates was just a small Dou Zhe (Battle Practitioner, 2nd Level), Mu She had no reason not to seek revenge for his subordinates.

In other words, Xiao Yan and Mu Shes positions were fundantally opposed.

But Mu She couldnt understand why Xiao Yan, with his current attitude, seed to have no understanding of the extent of the conflict between them. Was it really necessary for him to compensate for the damage to the gate?

Mu She couldnt comprehend it, really couldnt.

If Xiao Yan really gave out these sixty thousand for the purpose of compensating for the gate, then Mu She was even more puzzled.

What exactly are you doing?

Just as Mu She was puzzling over it, Xiao Yan spoke again.

Theres one more thing, I ca here specifically to inform you.

However, this ti his voice was not just directed at Mu She but was loud enough for all the onlookers behind him to hear clearly.

Your rcenaries, Im the one who killed all of them.

!

!

!

Xiao Yans words startled everyone present. Xiao Yixian wanted to rush out to say sothing, but she was stopped by Boss Yao, who covered her mouth, allowing her to struggle while looking apologetically at Xiao Yan.

Perhaps the only way to break the rumors was for Xiao Yan to do this.

Mu She also looked at Xiao Yan in astonishnt. He never expected that Xiao Yan would dare to announce in front of the entire town that he was responsible for killing those people.

No thats not right.

Xiao Yan wasnt taking responsibility for their deaths; he was rely stating the truth.

In fact, Xiao Yixian was the one taking responsibility for their deaths, but because of her reputation in Qingshan Town, Mu She had to pin it on her. That was an unavoidable situation.

As previously ntioned, it was much easier to slander Xiao Yan than Xiao Yixian, but similarly, once Xiao Yixian spoke in defense of Xiao Yan, the slander would dissipate.

So he had to slander Xiao Yixian.

But that Xiao Yan would co forward and admit it was sothing Mu She never expected.

However, Mu She still wanted to struggle a bit.

At least within Qingshan Town, toppling the Myriad dicines Hall was much more important than dealing with Xiao Yan.

Is that so? Mu She pretended to be surprised and glanced indifferently at Mu Li. But what my son told was that Xiao Yixian killed my subordinates in order to seize their treasures, and my son was lucky enough to escape.

Right! Right! Mu Li reacted and glared fiercely at Xiao Yan while saying, It was Xiao Yixian who killed them! I saw it with my own eyes!

Mu Lis words left the onlookers unsure of what to believe.

And that was the problem.

Yesterday, the only mber of the Wolf Head rcenary Company that returned with Xiao Yixian was Mu Li. The rest of them had all disappeared.

As for what happened yesterday, only those who were present at the ti would know. No matter how much others speculated, it would only be speculation.

Xiao Yan coldly looked at Mu Li and then spoke again in a calm voice.

Mu Li, you keep saying that Xiao Yixian killed them. So, tell , how did she kill them?

Huh? Xiao Yans question left Mu Li montarily stunned, and he panicked before saying, It was poison! She used poison to take the treasures from us!

Given Xiao Yixians delicate appearance, it was impossible for her to kill so many rcenaries through brute force. Therefore, the only possibility was poison.

But that was an unfillable loophole.

But in my mory, I killed them, smashing their heads one by one like they were grapes.

Xiao Yan stared closely at Mu Li, his eyes flashing with a fierce light.

Their remaining bodies are buried near the cliff. Although I dont want to disturb the dead, if your mory is truly confused due to fear, I can take you there to have a look.

Or

Xiao Yan slowly touched the Heavy Black Ruler, and the killing intent in his heart once again emanated out, causing Mu Li, who was full of fear, to tremble. Xiao Yan squinted his eyes slightly and said calmly, I can help you rember right now.
