The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 567: Chapter 567: Mei Ruyan’s Origins

”Your cultivation technique is very similar to our family’s, and even more remarkable is that you also practice ancient medicine, even better than Mr. Zhao Xuefeng. You are the most suitable person to treat my father!” Miaoqiu said, her eyes welling up again.

”Looks like you’ve been investigating me for quite some time.” Lin Tian said.

”I’m very sorry. I really have no other options.” Miaoqiu said.

”I see you not only investigated me, but also many others, right?”

”Yes.”

”What kind of people did you investigate?”

”There’s no specific direction, but a lot. I’ve been investigating for five years, and besides some big figures in Kanyue City, I’ve looked into anyone with some reputation.” Miaoqiu said.

”All to find someone to cure your father?”

”Exactly. As long as there’s a shred of hope, I can’t give up.”

”There’s no issue with treating your father; I’m happy to help. But I have one condition.”

”What is it?” Miaoqiu blinked, then looked at Lin Tian very seriously.

”Copy the information you have on others for me, and make sure it’s complete.”

Miaoqiu nodded almost without thinking and said, ”No problem, those things hold no value for me.”

The information indeed held no use for Miaoqiu, but it was invaluable to Lin Tian.

With this information, Pang Yu and their intelligence network could expand much faster. This is something money can’t buy.

Of course, Miaoqiu’s father’s life could not be bought with money either.

Lin Tian said, ”Treating your father’s illness is one thing, but stealing from the family auction... let’s forget it. I don’t think I’m qualified at all; I’m afraid I’ll die before even seeing those items.”

”No! You can do it! I heard you fought with Wang Yi on the rooftop. Even he wasn’t your match; the people at the auction won’t be our match. Besides, we’re going to steal; we won’t be discovered.” Miaoqiu said earnestly.

”You know nothing. I couldn’t beat Wang Yi; if I hadn’t pulled out my gun at the end, I would have been the one losing.” Lin Tian said in an annoyed tone.

”Wang Yi isn’t the most formidable, right? When we encounter someone more powerful, we won’t be able to escape.”

”With those experts around, I’m afraid I’ll be discovered when I approach those herbs, and you still want to steal?”

Lin Tian really didn’t know how to talk sense into her. How could she still be so naive at her age, like a little girl?

”You don’t need to fear those experts; have you forgotten about our Xu Family’s abilities?”

”What do you mean?”

”Our Xu Family’s Inner Power Heart Method can confuse people’s minds. At that time, our family will deploy more than twenty experts to support you, so rest assured, those family experts won’t detect us. Also, with me assisting you, even if someone more formidable than Wang Yi comes along, you’ll definitely be able to defeat them.”

Lin Tian thought to himself that she seemed to make some sense.

He had witnessed Miaoqiu’s captivating skills. Even her everyday actions were charming enough; one look into her eyes and you’d become her puppet.

This was a terrifying ability. With her assistance, it could be said to be unstoppable.

”Moreover, we can also bring guns. Although guns can’t cause them direct harm, they can still be effective in surprise situations.” Miaoqiu added.

”Seems like you’ve been planning this for a long time.” Lin Tian chuckled.

”Yes, just missing someone to act.”

”Then you can still find someone else, right?”

”...”

Miaoqiu’s eyes were almost burning with anger, how could this guy be so unyielding! After all those words, he was still unmoved!

”Are you a pig! I’ve told you before, I don’t trust others. In the ancient martial arts family, there’s no one worth trusting.”

”So you trust me?” Lin Tian pointed to his own nose, ”Although I’m handsome, that’s not a reason, right?”

”What if I say... I’m Ruyan’s biological elder sister, my father is also Ruyan’s father. Would you help me then?”

”What? You’re Ruyan’s biological elder sister?”

Lin Tian’s eyes widened, his mouth opened wide in shock, looking at her in disbelief.

”That’s the truth.”

”Doesn’t make sense... Since Ruyan is your biological sister, she’s part of the Ancient Martial Xu Family. Doesn’t your family’s Inner Power Heart Method have a charming effect? How come she’s like an ice block? And her skills don’t seem great either.”

”The matters here are complicated, not something I can explain in just a few words. In any case, she is my biological sister, she has never practiced our family’s Heart Method. Due to certain past events, her personality turned cold.” Miaoqiu said with a sigh.

”Then why is her surname Mei? Shouldn’t it be Xu?” Lin Tian grew more curious, eager to figure things out.

”Mei is our mother’s surname, she follows our mother’s last name.”

”Then why didn’t I see you at Xianglong Tea House?”

”Because she doesn’t like me; if I visit Xianglong Tea House to find her, I might be thrown out by her. So we rarely meet, but I always keep an eye on her whereabouts.”

Miaoqiu felt a bit dry in her mouth, how could this guy have so many questions, like they’d never end?

”So, for Ruyan, will you do me this favor?” Miaoqiu asked again.

The matter involved Mei Ruyan, Lin Tian started to feel overwhelmed.

Agreeing meant it involved Mei Ruyan’s father; declining seemed against loyalty.

Rejecting it carried the risk of his own life. Her father’s life is one life, I’m also one life.

”How about... I discuss this with Ruyan?” Lin Tian tentatively asked.

”No way! Ruyan absolutely cannot know about this!”

”Why?”

”Because... she definitely wouldn’t agree to you going?”

Lin Tian found it even more incomprehensible, ”Isn’t he her father?”

”But she hates her father, can’t wait for him to die.” Miaoqiu replied with a sense of loss.

Lin Tian stared at her charming face, so beautiful it was breathtaking. Upon closer inspection, Lin Tian could find no resemblance between her and Mei Ruyan.

The only commonalities between them were probably: they are both beauties, have fantastic figures, and dislike wearing leggings.

”Why does she hate her own father?”

Miaoqiu didn’t want to answer anymore; was this guy a walking encyclopedia? Why did he have so many questions?

She sighed softly, shook her head, and said, ”These things, you should let her tell you. If I tell you, I might become her enemy too.”

”Alright.” Lin Tian nodded.

”Then about stealing the medicine...”

”I can’t give you an answer right now, let me consider it for a while.” Lin Tian said somewhat indecisively.

”...” What else could Miaoqiu say? She could only nod in response, Lin Tian hadn’t outright refused, which was already a glimmer of hope.
