Cultivator in the Last Days-Chapter 150: Argue (2)

Mu Ting Ye looked at Yu Shi Lan seriously.

"It’s jus a defensive counterattack and I won’t let them disturb you, Yu Shi Lan," Mu Ting Ye said slowly.

It was not her fault and there was no need for her to be involved in these things.

"They’re targeting me and I can’t just stay silent." Yu Shi Lan frowned in response. She knew very well that the people behind them would not give up so easily. As for their true identity, she guessed that they should be from either the Ping Family or the Lian Family.

But knowing this matter wouldn’t exactly help her in her situation.

And Yu Shi Lan knew about it very well.

Once she was done with her family’s matter, she will come and pay them a visit just to handle this matter.

Even if she had to offend a lot of people... Yu Shi Lan felt that it would be fine.

This wouldn’t be the first time.

"I know." Mu Ting Ye looked at Yu Shi Lan calmly.

"Then..."

"But I don’t need you to be noticed by more people in this area. People from the martial arts world are not particularly restricted by the existing laws, but they are monitored in a different kind of manner," Mu Ting Ye said slowly.

When he first became a martial artist, he never understood this matter.

Only after his father came to explain him did he realize that there were actually heavy surveillance placed on everyone who become martial artist. The reason was because these people all had strong fighting abilities.

If they were left unchecked, they might become potential danger for the country.

While Mu Ting Ye was not very happy about the surveillance, he chose to ignore this matter. Because he knew that his parents were worried and his family members didn’t want to be out of touch with them, so he agreed with it.

But other people who studied under the same master didn’t have the same treatment as him.

If their background was not good enough, they would be under strict supervision once they have done something bad. His senior brother and sister originally didn’t attract much attention.

And after that incident happened, they seemed to be the center of attention of many people.

Mu Ting Ye didn’t like it.

He felt that Yu Shi Lan wouldn’t want it either.

As long as she remained ’innocent’ on the surface like Mu Ting Ye or Lin Yuan, most people would not actually pay that much attention. At most, they took note about their abilities but would not question too much.

With the current situation, who would be willing to pay so much attention to them?

No one would be so stupid.

But if Yu Shi Lan were to enter their eyes through this case, Mu Ting Ye couldn’t say the same for sure.

He didn’t want it to happen.

"Uh..." Yu Shi Lan was stunned and after a moment, she realized that Mu Ting Ye was right.

Since the existence of the martial artist had been found out by the officials, how could they possibly let them be so free and unrestrained all the time?

That’s impossible.

Because Yu Shi Lan had never been exposed to these things in her previous life, she had never thought about it at all.

But...

’I’m going to leave the base in a few days, so it’s unnecessary to worry so much, right?’

Mu Ting Ye seemed to be able to guess what Yu Shi Lan was thinking as he added, "Moreover, they will investigate your entire life. After all, it’s pretty easy to trace a person’s history in our country and many things that you do didn’t really need high confidentiality level..."

Yu Shi Lan: "..."

Thinking about her past life experience, she wanted to face palm very badly.

Because Yu Shi Lan knew very well that she was nothing more than a timid girl in the past and her changes only occurred one day before the earthquake occurred. Even though she tried her best to act normal, Yu Shi Lan was not entirely sure that she managed to escape from the countless surveillance cameras.

Her act of coming to the civil office could be regarded as her being fed up with her foster parent’s treatment.

But how about what happened afterwards?

Going to several stores in the middle of the night to buy some food, going to the park and spend her time there for hours without anyone knowing, and so on.

Just thinking about what she had done so far, Yu Shi Lan felt a rare touch of embarrassment.

It seemed...

She really couldn’t explain it.

Mu Ting Ye saw the changing expression on Yu Shi Lan’s face and guessed that she might have done something that was hard to explain on the surface. For some reasons, he was not suspicious of her and even trusted her quite a bit.

He himself was not sure of the reason either.

What he knew was that he wanted to believe this girl in front of him wholeheartedly.

It was a bit odd.

Mu Ting Ye didn’t dwell on this feeling as he had other things that he wanted to say, "In short, you just have to stay low and I’ll take care of this matter..."

"No." Yu Shi Lan looked at Mu Ting Ye. "If you’re the one who break the law, how are the Mu Family going to treat you?"

She had seen the Mu Family’s interaction before.

Even though it was somewhat tense and all, but she could see that it all stemmed from their care to Mu Ting Ye.

He had such a loving family members, something that Yu Shi Lan genuinely envied.

And she didn’t want him to lose it all just to help her get out of this small trouble.

"They’ll understand..."

"No, I said no. And Mu Ting Ye, don’t think of taking this matter into your hand like this... just pretend that you know nothing."
