Archaeology is archaeology, why dig me up?

Chapter 51 Unrivaled Shamelessness

Gu Lingchen stepped forward and replied calmly, "If I wanted to kill you, you would have been dead the moment you stepped into Villa No. 1."

"I just think you're a pretty interesting person."

"Thick-skinned, inexplicably confident, and his skills are just so-so."

"I happen to be lacking someone with decent skills around me right now."

"Stay as my dog, or die. Choose one."

"If it weren't for the eldest brother, did I even have a choice?"

"I can stay, but I won't be a dog."

"Besides, I'm a member of Dark Rain's group. Are you sure you dare to accept me?"

Jian Wudi was in a state of utter confusion.

From the age of three, Jian Wudi, still wearing open-crotch pants, was taken to a secret deserted island in Dark Rain to begin training in killing skills.

He was a true warrior who emerged from mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

Having lived for over twenty years, Jian Wudi believed he could challenge any strong person in the world, and even if he couldn't defeat them, he wouldn't be unable to escape.

But Gu Lingchen gave him more than just the feeling of strength.

Rather, it was so strong that he saw no hope whatsoever.

Jian Wudi longed to escape Anyu, but once you enter Anyu, you're in Anyu for life.

Only the dead can escape the dark rain.

Upon hearing this, Gu Lingchen coldly replied, "There's probably nothing in this world that I wouldn't dare to do."

"Since you've agreed to follow me, from this day forward, your life is mine."

"Whoosh~"

A streak of azure light silently entered Jian Wudi's mind. With this mark, as long as Gu Lingchen had a single thought, Jian Wudi would immediately explode and die, no matter where he was.

"Alright, big brother, from now on I, Jian Wudi, will follow you."

"Let me make this clear first, I'm not your dog."

"At most, I'll be your underling."

"You're stronger than me, so you're my older brother."

Gu Lingchen replied indifferently, "Whatever, the form of address is not important to me."

"Take this medicine and heal your injuries properly. I don't keep useless people around me."

After saying that, Gu Lingchen tossed out a dark red pill that hovered in front of Jian Wudi.

Looking at the pill-shaped sword in front of him, Invincible's throat bobbed.

"Brother, are you sure this isn't poison?"

"That's right, if my brother wants to kill me, why go through all this trouble?"

He took the pill and swallowed it in one gulp.

Boom!

In an instant, his true energy erupted within him, leaving nothing but barren land within a ten-meter radius, and destroying all the trees.

"This... is terrifying power."

Jian Wudi was greatly alarmed and quickly mobilized this power to repair his injured body.

A few minutes later, Jian Wudi stood up in shock and stretched his body.

"Brother, this elixir is amazing!"

"My injury is mostly healed, and I can feel my internal energy becoming more and more abundant."

"If this kind of pill were put up for auction, it would definitely fetch an astronomical price, right?"

"Thank you so much, brother. From now on, you will be my brother for life."

"If you tell me to go east, I will never go west."

"Wait, if I call you 'Big Brother,' what should you call me?"

"I can't exactly call him 'little brother' in front of strangers, can I? That would be so embarrassing."

"Big brother, from now on you can call me Jianjian, or Little Jian, okay?"

Hearing this, Gu Lingchen was speechless: "I'll just call you by your full name."

"Invincible Sword".

"Your name, like you, is quite interesting."

"Hehe, big brother, of course. Sword Invincible is not only my name, but also my lifelong goal."

"OK."

"Let's go back to the villa. Find a room on the first floor to stay in."

"Just tell the housekeeper if you need anything."

In the courtyard, Zhou Nan, Su Qianxue, and the others were still waiting for Gu Lingchen to return.

Chu Yue was among them.

The next second, two dark figures flashed by, and Gu Lingchen, accompanied by Jian Wudi, was already standing in front of them.

"Bitch?"

"You're still alive?"

After seeing Jian Wudi, Zhou Nan took out a baton and stood in front of Su Qianxue and Tang Xiaoxiao.

"A bastard? Him?"

"Sister Zhou Nan, why did you call him a slut?"

"Sister Qianxue, because he said his name is Jian Wudi (meaning 'invincible')."

"what?"

"Incomparably shameless?"

"Pfft~"

Su Qianxue and Tang Xiaoxiao couldn't help but laugh, wondering how anyone could have such a name.

But Chu Yue's heart began to race upon hearing the name, and she quietly placed her right hand on the hilt of her sword.

It was obvious that Chu Yue had heard of Jian Wudi.

At this moment, Jian Wudi stood next to Gu Lingchen with a confident smile. He tossed his hair and laughed, "See? Two more people have been charmed by my name. They're both smiling."

"Hey you, you're one of the Dragon Shadow Guards, right?"

"I advise you to take your hand off the hilt of your sword, otherwise, if this were anywhere else, I would have killed you before you could even draw your sword."

"I, Jian Wudi, have always been a man of chivalry and tenderness, but only if you don't draw your sword against me."

"Damn it, whoosh!"

The next second, Chu Yue instantly drew her longsword and stood in front of Su Qianxue and the others, saying warily, "Everyone be careful, he is the Dark Rain Six-Star Assassin, Sword Invincible."

"His strength is terrifying."

"He's a guy our Dragon Shadow Guard has been hunting for a long time; he's extremely cunning."

"Instructor Gu, how come you're with him?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Lingchen stepped forward, pressed down the long sword in Chu Yue's hand, and said calmly, "From now on, Jian Wudi is mine."

"Responsible for protecting everyone's safety."

"Alright, if there's nothing else, go back and get some rest."

"What? Your people?"

"Instructor Gu, you mean...?"

Chu Yue's heart raced. Even Jian Wudi had been subdued?

Chu Yue had dealt with many people from An Yu, but this was the first time she had ever heard of anyone from An Yu daring to betray them.

"Gu Lingchen, is he an assassin?"

"Are you alright?"

Su Qianxue, Tang Xiaoxiao, Zhou Nan, and the others all stepped forward to show their concern for Gu Lingchen.

This made Jian Wudi, who was truly injured, feel extremely unbalanced.

"Hey, ladies, why aren't you asking if I'm hurt?"

"I was the one who just got beaten up."

"You bitch, you deserve it."

"Who gave you permission to become an assassin?"

"Gu Lingchen should have killed you."

"Swordman? That title sounds weird to me."

Jian Wudi watched Zhou Nan's uneven eyes swirling in their sockets, lost in thought.

Soon after, only Gu Lingchen and Chu Yue remained in the villa garden.

"Speak, what do you want from me?"

Chu Yue stepped forward and quickly replied, "Instructor Gu, it's like this."

"Japan has suddenly initiated martial arts exchanges with the Chinese martial arts community."

"They sent many powerful individuals this time."

"The most famous one among them is Sato Masao. He is a national treasure-level warrior of the younger generation in Japan, and his strength is unfathomable."

"He is also the senior disciple of the Sato lineage in Japan."

"We suspect that Japan's decision to initiate martial arts exchanges with China at this time is not for pure purposes."

"The Situ family is also very likely to make a big move at this time."

"But if we do not accept this martial arts exchange, the prestige of the Chinese martial arts community on the international stage will definitely be affected."
