Eternal Life Starts as a Hunter-Chapter 92 - 83: Reputation

Chapter 92: Chapter 83: Reputation
Afterwards, they were discovered, and they needed to kill Li Yuan, to silence the Blood Saber Sect disciples.
If it wasn’t for Li Yuan and that Zhou Jia by his side, those Blood Saber Sect disciples might have already been silenced by them!
Can this also be a cause for trouble?
Want me to cause trouble?
He suddenly stood up and kicked the one who was shouting the loudest earlier, saying: "Are you trying to get me killed?"
"Join the Sun Family?
Do you take the Sun Family for fools?
If it really is Li Yuan who is at fault, and Blood Saber Sect is protective, then it might be possible.
Now? Join them for nothing!"
The room went silent immediately.
Soon, another tributor spoke: "Brother Blood, who knows if it’s true or false, they killed people, yet Chang Kui and Ruan Ahfei can’t say they made the first move..."
Blood Scissors sneered: "What’s true and what’s false? Have you mixed with the social world? The truth doesn’t matter, what matters is... what’s being said outside, what people believe. And if Chang Kui and Ruan Ahfei hadn’t provoked Li Yuan, would this have happened?"
Another tributor suggested: "Why don’t we... capture a Blood Saber Sect disciple, force them and make them change their statement, make them say the truth we want.
Hehehe... the more chaotic Shanbao County gets, the more benefits for us.
If Sun Family, Wei Family, and Blood Saber Sect wear each other out, wouldn’t Shanbao County be ours? Hehehe..."
Blood Scissors said: "You go capture one."
The tributor laughed awkwardly: "Let’s all think of a way together."
Blood Scissors asked: "So, are you going or not? Who else is willing to go? Step forward?"
No one spoke immediately.
Everyone wanted to enjoy the ready-made benefits, no one would be crazy enough to kidnap a Blood Saber Sect disciple.
If discovered, firstly Blood Saber Sect wouldn’t tolerate you, secondly, "taking money but not delivering, and even betraying the employer," would ruin one’s reputation.
There’s honor among thieves, unless one wants to give up completely, would one do such an unprincipled deal.
Blood Scissors said: "Let’s just drop it, Silver Creek Square is a major stronghold for Blood Saber Sect, and Li Yuan isn’t so simple. Next time keep your eyes sharper.
As for Shanbao County... heh..."
The man revealed a teasing smile, lowered his voice, sounding like a sinister whisper of a fierce beast, and said meaningfully: "Who knows who it will belong to in the end?"
...
...
On the other side, at Blood Fury Hall.
Tie Sha was holding his forehead, troubled over the constant anxiety.
One part was due to the stalemate with Sun Family and Wei Family, the other was the severed connection with Blood Saber Sect’s upper management.
Without that connection, the "Life Atlas" couldn’t be viewed.
The atlas holds the secret of advancing Blood Saber Sect to Sixth Grade.
And Sixth Grade is a complete transformation, advancing further, granting lengthy life, no longer a realm of ordinary people.
Thus, this realm is named Life-Changing Realm.
Who doesn’t want to reach it?
But without that Life Atlas containing the author’s essence, no matter how much you speculate, it’s nearly impossible. Tie Sha has spent a whole decade without deciphering it. He urgently seeks another look at the atlas, hoping to verify, comprehend, and breakthrough.
At this moment, hurried footsteps approached from outside, a short man rushed in, exactly the short one from the "Fat Thin Tall Short" group that Tie Sha often leads.
The short man approached Tie Sha and whispered a few words.
Tie Sha’s eyebrows slightly relaxed and said: "The Demon Dog tracked the scent, killed two Eighth Grade Honored Guests, was unscathed, and wiped his tracks clean..."
He clicked his tongue for a while before finally saying: "Tell Li Yuan to come see me."
A leader of a sect, like an emperor, doesn’t easily go to meet one of his subordinates, otherwise it would send odd signals.
This is why Tie Sha, despite favoring Li Yuan, hadn’t met him all this time.
But this time, he made up his mind.
Li Yuan is a genius, so what if he sends a friendly signal?
...
At this moment...
Li Yuan was sitting behind a screen in the backyard of Hengwu Restaurant.
In front of the screen, quite a number were lined up, applying for the guarding position at Hengwu Restaurant.
Li Yuan glanced over, most of these applicants had a "1~2" score, while a few "2~3" ones stood out significantly.
However, this "2~3" score is indeed decent among ordinary people.
So he called Steward Wu and pointed out a few "2~3" ones from behind the screen.
At the upper section of the backyard, two distinctively beautiful women gazed down, not watching Li Yuan recruit, but observing the busy street and chatting with each other.
These were Yan Yu and Xue Ning.
With a capable man, they lived comfortable lives as well.
Xue Ning managed the family business, handling the accounts.
While Lady Yan couldn’t manage the restaurant nor understand ways to earn money, she was good at socializing.
Now unable to nurture Shadow Blood, she intended to help her husband in other ways... she began to engage semi-actively with various distinguished ladies and mistresses.
Today she arranged a meeting with the proprietress of Brocade and Silk Shop, First Madam of Baoji Ruddy Workshop, First Madam of Yunxing Escort Agency, and the wife of Young Master from the neighboring Wutong Square Lion Wind Martial Arts Academy, planning to have drinks at Full Moon Tea House and then stroll through the busy market, go boating in Silver Creek Lake.
That Young Master’s wife from Lion Wind Martial Arts Academy was Zuo Xiuxiu, previously saved by Li Yuan. Now the head of the academy and the young master had reconciled, and this daughter-in-law was reluctantly accepted.
Knowing Li Yuan’s connection to Hengwu Restaurant, Zuo Xiuxiu tried persistently to get involved, and finally connected with Lady Yan. Now she affectionately calls her Sister Yan.
Firstly, Zuo Xiuxiu wanted to get close to a powerful figure, secondly, she always felt grateful for Li Yuan’s rescue, hence she became Lady Yan’s little follower, agreeing to whatever Lady Yan said, never opposing.
