Chapter 943: Everyone Wants to Be the Martial Arts Alliance Leader
In a Jin Yuedao family villa, a man with a straight posture stood tall, his head held high. He closed his eyes and wholeheartedly felt the nature of the world around him, listening to the howling wind, tuning into every movement of all things.
In an instant, the man’s hand moved like lightning, pinching a leaf that flew past him, and then he opened his eyes and couldn’t help but laugh.
At his side, Jin Yi raised his arm and shouted with joy, "This is great, Master, it looks like you’ve recovered quite well."
In response, Jian Shen nodded, "Yes, I should be mostly recovered, and it won’t be necessary for you to protect me anymore." After speaking, Jian Shen glanced at Lin Xi, who was smiling contentedly.
Lu Bei was also delighted, "That’s wonderful, the election for the new Martial Arts leader is coming up soon, and we’ll be just in time."
"No, I’m not interested in becoming the Martial Arts leader. What I’m worried about is another group of vampires from the West." Jian Shen’s gaze was resolute. In fact, he was haunted daily by the arrogant visage of Xue Lang, who claimed there was another group of vampires coming, one that would be even stronger than Xue Lang’s group.
Lu Bei persuaded, "Big brother, how can you deal with those vampires alone? In my opinion, you should become the Martial Arts leader, then rally the whole Martial Arts community. Only by gathering the power of everyone can we potentially defeat those vampires."
"Right? That’s a good suggestion, but..." Jian Shen looked at Lin Xi beside him, showing a hint of difficulty. He had been thinking about leading a peaceful life away from the world with Lin Xi. If he were to become the Martial Arts leader, there would be many responsibilities. And the role of Martial Arts leader isn’t one you can simply walk away from; accepting the position means taking responsibility through to the end.
Seeing Jian Shen show hesitation, Lin Xi guessed what he was thinking. She smiled slightly, "Alright, let’s focus on dealing with what’s in front of us now, and don’t forget your promise to your master. Also, don’t let down the expectations your teacher had for you. Defeat those vampires completely, and then we can have peaceful days ahead. Otherwise, living in hiding won’t bring us peace of mind."
