Chapter 123: Chapter 123- Have I ever been high profile
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Zhou Zhongmao recognized who it was right away .
They fought before .
Lin Fan didn’t recognize him and had never seen him before, “Cousin, who is he?”
That was a little impossible .
Since cousin knew who it was, then why didn’t he know .
Zhou Zhongmao said, “Cousin, he is a bandit from Wolf Brigade, last time he ran away, and I stole his weapon . ”
“Oh . ” Lin Fan nodded his head .
The person walked out of the darkness . He was muscular; the knife wound on his face was really terrifying .
However, Lin Fan felt that his person wasn’t in a good mental state .
“You are asking for it yourself, so I will just take you down . ” Zhou Zhongmao clenched his fists and was prepared to attack . He could ensure that this time, he could capture that person .
“Wait . ”
Lin Fan raised his hands to tell his cousin not to be rash .
Wasn’t Wolf Brigade already wiped out by Chen Family, then why did this bandit come to find him?
What was going on?
“You are from Wolf Brigade? Why did you come to Martial Path Mountain?” Lin Fan asked .
I wanted revenge; one should take revenge .
Your Wolf Brigade was wiped out by Chen Family, so even if he wanted to take revenge, he should head to Chen Family .
Why did he come to Martial Path Mountain?
“I am the Leader of the Wolf Brigade; I came here to discuss working together with you . ” The Leader’s voice was a horse; he wasn’t as powerful and free as before .
His will was really heavy; there were no emotions in his eyes .
Lin Fan’s mind moved really quickly .
He immediately guessed the reason why that fellow came to find him .
“I am sorry, I don’t lack any partners here, you can find other people .
” Lin Fan said .
He had a peaceful life .
He didn’t want to cause too much trouble temporarily .
Wolf Brigade was wiped out, and the Leader was still alive and wanted to work with him? He definitely wanted revenge; if he wanted, he would have to go all out towards the Chen Family . They were totally unrelated and even fought a few days ago .
There was no reason for them to work together .
Zhou Zhongmao said, “My cousin said that we wouldn’t work together, leave . If not, don’t blame me for taking you down . ”
“100 thousand, help me . ” The Leader said word by word .
He didn’t know who to find for help .
Chen Family couldn’t be offended .
He fled from the cliff, and after a few hours when his cultivation recovered, he realizes that the Wolf Brigade fortress was riddled in holes . The rage in his heart couldn’t be extinguished, and he only wanted revenge .
In the end, he thought about Martial Path Mountain .
Martial Path Mountain extorted him for him to use the money to redeem people . That meant that they needed money .
At the same time, they also had conflicts with the Chen Family .

That was why he wanted to work with Martial Path Mountain .
“En . ” Lin Fan didn’t want to deal with this, but the 100 thousand was really ear-piercing such that one couldn’t accept it .
“100 thousand, this isn’t money or not, the key is…”
Pa!
The Leader threw his bag onto the ground, in it, were stacks of cash .
He hid this money somewhere for the future when he was tired, so he would bring his brothers to enjoy . Who knew that before they could enjoy anything, they were all gone .
There was no use to keep the money too .
The Leader said, “As long as you help me, I will give you the 100 thousand . Martial Path Mountain and Chen Family have problems too . Our Wolf Brigade wanted to come and wipe out Martial Path Mountain, which was on orders from Chen Family . Now that Wolf Brigade was gone, Chen Family won’t let this rest, and one day they would trample over Martial Path Mountain too . ”
His words made sense .
Lin Fan pondered, his gaze occasionally glanced at the notes .
This huge sum was really tough to earn .
He was a person of principle .
He personally brought silver here, if he really wanted to steal it, he would ask Cousin to attack . He was definitely not his match .
However, he had morals .
Could he do such a thing?
Definitely not .
He met that old man in the morning, and he felt really annoyed . He looked like a bad person and spoke with a hidden undertone .
He just felt like he was bad news .
Lin Fan said, “Your words make sense . You want to kill Chen Family Young Master or Old Master Chen or the entire Chen Family?”
He had to make things clear .
He hadn’t gotten enough rage points, his strength wasn’t at his peak, so if he fought, things would be a little tough .
Although a hundred thousand silver was good, they had to consider their own strength .
“Kill Chen Daoyun . ” The Leader said solemnly .
Hearing his voice,
One could hear how deep the hatred was .
Either I would live, or you would die . Only that would solve the problem .
Lin Fan said, “Do you know how strong Old Master Chen is? Is there an expert in their manor?”
The Leader said, “He is slightly stronger than me and should be peak Martial Path Grade Nine . I do not know if there are experts or not, but there should be . ”
Damn!
This was a huge problem .
Martial Path Grade Nine Peak .
Cousin had just entered Martial Path Grade Nine .
Two Martial Path Grade Nine, one Martial Path Grade Eight peak,
With the three of them attacking together, who knew if it was tough or not?
The key was if Old Master Chen had experts around him .
With just the three of them, they would all be wiped out . His head really hurt; he wasn’t easy to deal with .
Zhou Zhongmao said softly, “Cousin, maybe we can try it . The silver isn’t important, but today I felt that Old Master Chen has killing intent towards us . Why not use the chance to kill him?”

“Do you have confidence if we fight head-on?” Lin Fan asked .
Zhou Zhongmao wasn’t sure, but if he was peak Martial Path Grade Nine, then he was still a little confident .
“60% . ”
Lin Fan thought about it .
It wasn’t easy money .
The Leader didn’t force him but just waited on quietly .
He didn’t have any helpers anymore .
Even if he used 100 thousand to find experts, maybe the moment he passed it to them, they would work with the Chen Family to kill him .
Which was why he would rather find Martial Path Mountain than anyone else,
If Zhang Tianxian knew about this, he would have exclaimed .
A huge deal, this was a huge deal .
Why did Martial Path Mountain go bankrupt? They had no business and no silver income .
After some time,
The Leader didn’t study .
Or rather only 4th Brother studied in the entire Wolf Brigade and had some slight knowledge .
Thinking about 4th Brother, he wanted to cry .
This sadness turned into a rage that was all aimed at Old Master Chen .
If this rage was towards Lin Fan, it would be an explosive amount .
“Great . ” Leader nodded .
“Before I am sure, just stay deep in Martial Path Mountain . Don’t come out and walkabout . If other people see you, I won’t be able to help you . ”
“Also, I have a habit when working with people who were accepting fees first . ”
Lin Fan reached out; his meaning was clear, which was for money to be given first .
He didn’t accept being paid after doing the task .
His brain was filled with all sorts of possibilities .
For example, when a battle occurs, the Leader will head forwards and die against Old Master Chen . However, he didn’t pay him any money, and when he asked him where it was, just as the Leader wanted to tell him, he died .
If that really happened .
He wouldn’t even know who to cry to .
Lin Fan said, “Don’t worry, I am a morally upright person and won’t cheat people . ”
He really was such a person .
Like a while ago, when Wolf Brigade sent money to redeem people, didn’t he keep to his word?
No .
He released them and allowed them to leave Martial Path Mountain .
However, the moment they were out of Martial Path Mountain, they had nothing to do with him . Bandits did so many bad things, as a good male, how could he allow them to roam around Martial Path Mountain . He could only send his cousin to kill them .
The Leader passed the bag to Lin Fan and raised his head, “I hope you can keep to your promise . If not, even if I become a ghost, I won’t let you go . ”
“Yeah, you can be a human, so why don’t you want to, why be a ghost? Do I look like such a person?” Lin Fan waved his hand .
The Leader was really sad and was in no mood to joke .
If this happened before, he would have dissed him heavily .
He really looked like such a person .
After this, he called Gou’zi over for him to arrange a far place for Leader to say such that others wouldn’t see him .
If someone recognized him, they would definitely report it to the Chen Family .
That would be a huge problem .
Within the room,
“Cousin, honestly, do you have the confidence or not?” Lin Fan asked .
Zhou Zhongmao said seriously, “Cousin, yes . If I attack together with that fellow, we have a 60% chance of killing Old Master Chen . ”
“60% isn’t high; it is just half . What about with me?” Lin Fan said .
“Ah?” Zhou Zhongmao found it weird and then asked, “Cousin don’t risk it . If not, I would have to protect you . Then I would have no confidence at all . ”
Instantly .
Lin Fan grabbed his hand; huge internal strength surged towards Cousin like he was about to battle internal strength with him .
Zhou Zhongmao was shocked; he was filled with disbelief .
Oh my god .
When did cousin become so strong?
If Uncle found out, he would be delighted .
“What about now?” Lin Fan asked .
Zhou Zhongmao said, “Above 70% . ”
“However, cousin, you…”
Lin Fan didn’t allow him to continue speaking, patting his shoulder and smiling, “Low profile . ”
Had he showed his strength before?
No .
He had never been arrogant before .
Did he tell anyone before about his strength?
No .
What was the point of being strong?
Truly strong is being able to lead a good life .
This Wolf Brigade Leader was strong, but his life was so tough . His home was wiped out . Why? He was too high profile .
Low profile now was paving the way to be high profile in the future .
Everyone take a look
Once his strength reached the peak, look at how high profile he would be .
He told himself in his heart .
Lin Fan felt really good .
He had to hide this 100 thousand in a safe place . If not, if Zhang Tianxian saw it, it would be dangerous .
It was tough to defend against a thief in your own home .
Even if they used their personality to ensure they won’t steal it, he wouldn’t believe them . He would even ask them if they even had morals?
Money had corrupted them .
Seeing so much money, they would go crazy . Only he could keep calm and not be tempted .
In the end, He hid the silver under the bed . He told Cousin to pay attention to this place .
He would start investigating Chen Family tomorrow .
Only after understanding the situation,
Would he have a chance of succeeding?
The Leader was arranged to stay in a room at the periphery . This place was abandoned, so no one came usually .
The Leader laid there and found it hard to sleep .
The moment he closed his eyes, he thought about what happened that night .
In the past, an old monk told him .
To kill less .
The world worked in cycles, and there was karma .

The Way Ahead
What do you do when you don't fit in? Edwin never really felt many connections to other people, but as a physics student, that was fine. He didn't really need it, anyway. He was content to peel back the mysteries of the universe... not that there were many left to find. Modern-day research was just too well-established, too well-trodden for any single enthusiast to make any significant headway. But that doesn't apply to other worlds. Not ones where magic and Skills run rampant, where well-defined roles and Classes dominate much of society with little room for novel experimentation from its residents. That kind of world would be perfect for an overeager, newly-minted Alchemist to make his mark. Things are never that easy, though. The Way Ahead is a very slice-of-life story following the story of someone trying to find his place in a world that doesn't know what to do with him. Expect lots of science, lots of alchemy, a few sarcastic quips by the System, and lots of exploration involving the world, self-discovery, and above all, science. After all, further research is always required. Updates every other day at 9 AM PST. Congratulations! For writing a story during the month of November, you have unlocked the Royal Road Writathon Participant path!

Distant Leaps to Circinus
A dark fantasy story that takes place on a reborn Earth. "With all the planets in the universe, it just had to be this one." Not many thoughts came to mind when scientists said they could provide the Earth with nearly infinite power. Humans could only think about the future, after all: they could travel to the farthest reaches of space, never worry about their electric bills again, and give rise to new and innovative technologies. With such good outcomes on the horizon, there was no way humanity would sit idle; instead, they studied perhaps the most powerful entity in the entire Milky Way. It seemed that, after its appearance decades ago, the strange and unmoving black sphere was something of a godsend. There will always be a reason for these things. With one touch, our very reality was but a grain of sand in an hourglass. In an instant, the Earth was gone - replaced by something… different. More than a century later, Earth’s remains have reformed into a completely different beast - a planet both alive and dead at the same time. Physics that were once understood no longer made sense, giant land masses floated in the sky, and billions of people fought for their very survival. Work, sleep, and play were no more; it was time for the world, Circinus, to reign. The birth of Circinus could only be the beginning. The powerful yet ever-elusive black sphere seemed to watch the world from afar - casting light for those below, but never truly emitting light from itself. What does it all mean for the children of Circinus - children born with eyes that seemed to stare into God’s heart?

The Legend of the Fake Hero
*I don't own the cover image**This has the Tragedy Tag; please no genre hate. Bad things can happen to good people, just like in real life (not that they will. I almost didn't put the tag there as it doesn't really fit the genre. I like happy endings.).The year is 201X, and the line between reality and the imaginary has become blurred. Approximately nine months ago, the event which became known as "The Convergence" occurred. People on Earth began to obtain powers. Some received them for seemingly no reason while others had obtained them after they had returned from the many different worlds that they had unwillingly been abducted to. These new worlds existed beyond time and space, and many could have different rules different from what we know as standard reality. That is because these many worlds seem to have traits taken from imagination. Things from stories and myths, like magic and plots, existed in these worlds as if they were inspired by them, and that was only a start.On earth, there was a young man. On appearance, he could be considered only slightly better-than-average. The only thing he was known for was his incredible mind that left him feeling bored and out of touch with reality. But soon he would leave this reality altogether. One moment he was lying in his bed. The next, he was face-to-face with a beautiful young lady who he had just woken up upon him falling into her bed. This young man has an incredible fate and will soon visit many worlds, gain many powers, and meet many women who, like the young girl whose bed he had fallen into, will blow him away.Upload Schedule (Updated 3/28/2021)Upload one chapter every-other-weekend PST (with rare exception, typically due to length).Breaking Fate/Origin Arc (Done) Albion Arc: Vol 1 - Origin, Vol 2 - Rise of the Red Dragon (Done) New Earth Arc: Vol 3 - New Earth (Done) Dealing with the Past Arc: Vol 4 - Ghosts of the Past, Vol 5 - The Dracul Descends, Vol 6 - War of FateBound Fate Arc Fake Hero Arc Vol 7 - Martel Side Stories #1 Shield Hero Arc Vol 8 - Second Chance Vol 9 - The Adventure Begins (Current) Vol 10 - First Quest Vol 11 - TBD (Writing [37%]) (Multiple Future Volumes TBD)Currently ONLY posting on Scribble Hub, Royal Road, and Wattpad (Same user name)If you find my work on other sites please let me know!

Mail Fox Tales

Neither did Eva when she picked up an injured canine after an evening out drinking with a friend to celebrate their arrival in Tokyo.At least those duties are little more than a part time job as a delivery-fox.
