Chapter 1116: He Brought it on Itself

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

Jianwen was a smart man- he saw Goudan kill his man and leave the arena, but he didn’t get anyone to stop him. Fighter Li was a Mystic mid phase peak physical practitioner, and even he couldn’t do anything to this Goudan person. Who else in this arena could?

Stopping him would mean death!

“Master Wen, what do we do now?” Scorpion was panicking,”With Fighter Li dead, the arena isn’t protected anymore!”

“That’s a small matter- what matters the way we should explain this? As long as they’re fine with it, they’ll send us a new fighter very soon!” Jianwen wasn’t sad at all. So be it if he died, they weren’t really on good terms in the first place. The problem was that it would be hard to explain this to the Firewolves!

“Master Wen, it’s actually quite easy to explain this!” Scorpion had already thought about it. It was true that if the Firewolves wanted the arena to continue earning them money, they’d send another fghter – the problem was how they were supposed to get the news across. But Scorpion had an idea.

“Oh? Tell me!” Jianwen quickly said.

“Master Wen, we’ll just tell the truth- it’s all Fighter LI’s fault, he brought it on himself. He had an interest in a common house’s girl, but didn’t expect that the girl has a guy this strong backing her up- he came here for revenge and killed him with one shot!” Scorpion said, “Master Wen, you still need to push him down when you report this to the top, you should say that Fighter Li didn’t listen to your advice, you have to complain to them that you told him not to go snatch some common girl! And now it was his fault that he got killed!”

“Not bad, Scorpion! Smart!” Jianwen nodded, “Alright, I’l make the phone call!”

“Heh, thank you, Master Wen!” Scorpion grinned, “It’s all thanks to your teaching.

“Yeah- you go down first,” Jianwen waved his hand, telling Scorpion to leave first. He never let anyone listento his conversations with the Firewolves as well as those with his father.

He called his father, An Mingyue, once Scorpion left.

“Hello? Jianwen, why are you calling at this hour?” Mingyue was currently eating with the second-in-command of the Firewolves’ north branch.

“Dad, there’s been an accident! Fighter Li was killed!” Jianwen said.

“What? Fighter Li was killed? What happened, how could this have happened?” Mingyue frownned intensely.

This meal today with the second-in-command was in the name of the leader of the north branch- it meant that they were pleased with Jianwen’s results these days. He had earned a couple billion from such a small amount of time, he was like a giant money sponge!

Jianwen’s speed was the fastest in the history of the Firewolves, and the north branch was about to give Jianwen benefits- Mingyue was very happy about it, but something had to have happened just then!

The second-in-command heard Mingyue’s words, his face turning dark, “Mingyue, what’s wrong? How did Fighter Li die?”

“I… I’m not sure yet, let me ask the details…” Mingyue started breaking out in cold sweat. Firewolves were powerful, but this was a Mystic mid phase peak physical practitioner- this was a big deal already, he couldn’t just die! This wasn’t something they’d just let slip!

“Give me the phone- I’ll talk to An Jianwen mjyself and see what happened!” The second leader said as he asked for the phone directly. This Fighter Li’s strength was very important to the north branch Firewolves- he couldn’t just die like that!

“Alright…” Mingyue had no choice, he had to listen to the second leader. He was worried that Jianwen would get punished, but he couldn’t say no to him. He was even regretting coming here for dinner today, he could’ve discussed this with his son first and lowered the damage!

“Helo? An Jianwen? What happened? Fighter Li is a master from our north branch, how come he’s now dead after transferring to your place? How did this happen?” Second leader said right after taking the phone.

“Hello, is this the second leader?” Jianwen was tense- this was his first titmetalking to the upper echeleon of the Firewolves, but he still managed to be humble and respectful.

“It’s me. How did Fighter Li die, give me the details!”

“Second leader, I finally found a boss to complain to!” Jianwen said, as if he had been frustrated the whole time, “Second leader, that Fighter Li didn’t listen to me at all, always causing trouble and kicking things around- and now he’s dead because someone came to our doorstep to kill him! You need stand up for me, second leader! This whole thing is messing up the arena’s business!”

“Oh?” The second-in-command blinked. This tone coming from Jianwen made it sound like it wasn’t his fault that Fighter Li died? He still expected for Jianwen to be apologizing, he didn’t think that he would be complaining about Fighter Li! He frowned, a little unhappy, “An Jianwen, why do you seem quite happy after Fighter Li got killed? Are you aware that a Firewolves master’s death on your hands is partly your responsibility?”

“My responsibility? That can’t be!” Jianwen said, frustrated, “Second leader, it’s him who went to cause this trouble, it has nothing to do with me! He went and hit on a girl from a common house, and her man came and killed him with one shot, what was I supposed to do to stop this? Fortunately for us her man was reasonable, knowing to deal his revenge to the one who caused the feud- otherwise, he’d tear down my entire arena, and I’d be at a huge loss!”

“What? That was what happened?” The second leader paused, not expecting that Fighter Li was the one who caused all this trouble, and that Jianwen had nothing to do with it! Jianwen actually almost got pulled into this entire mess, too! He couldn’t really give him a scolding or anything at this point, “Why didn’t you stop him from harrassing the girl? Our underground arena is an illegal business in the first place, we have to lay low!”
