Bab 20: Chapter 20: Menacing Situation!

Ling Yuyan blinked her clear innocent eyes while staring at Lin Ming Tian as her mind went blank in an instant.

Lin Ming Tian blushed, and his face turned completely red like a prawn when Ling Yuyan stared at him so closely.

The heavy rain had long washed up Ling Yuyan's disguise makeup, so she had already changed back from an average-looking delicate girl to a stunningly beautiful girl.

No wonder Lin Ming Tian was dazzled by Ling Yuyan's real appearance as soon as he opened his eyes.

When the blood flowed back into her head, and she realized that Lin Ming Tian had already woken up, Ling Yuyan hastily jumped away from Lin Ming Tian while screaming in great shock and panic.

"WUUUGGYAAAAH~!"

Ling Yuyan's loud scream immediately alerted An Yue and all of the shadow guards!

"Sister Yuyan~!" An Yue shouted in an anxious tone as she swiftly flashed toward Ling Yuyan while unsheathing the blades on her waist.

SHRING~! SHRING~! SHRING~! SHRING~!

All of the [2nd Tier Shadow Guards] also unsheathed their blades while using their [Silent Wave Steps] to rush swiftly toward Lin Ming Tian at the same time!

In less than half a breath, more than twenty extremely sharp blades were placed on Lin Ming Tian's neck simultaneously!

In fact, if Lin Ming Tian revealed even a faint trace of killing intent just now, An Yue and all of her [2nd Tier Shadow Guards] would instantly notice it, and they would immediately react on time to stop him from hurting Ling Yuyan.

It was because Lin Ming Tian had not made any move yet, and he also did not have any intention to hurt Ling Yuyan at all that An Yue and all of her [2nd Tier Shadow Guards] failed to notice that he had woken up.

Of course, if An Yue or her shadow guards sensed any bad intention from Lin Ming Tian, his head might have already fallen onto the ground a few moments ago.

Lin Ming Tian's face quickly turned pale, and he almost fainted again in fright. He did not even dare to breathe in this very tense situation.

Ling Yuyan was also extremely terrified that An Yue and her shadow guards would really chop Lin Ming Tian's head off, so she hastily shouted to stop them: "Wait~! Stop it~! Uhh, well... He... He is not a bad guy. I was just surprised because he suddenly opened his eyes when I got so close to him before."

If it was her own people who accidentally killed the protagonist in the end after wasting so much effort in order not to change the future, Ling Yuyan would really cry in regret.

She might want to find a piece of tofu and use it to commit suicide on the spot. (It meant she regretted so much that she was so stupid, and she even wanted to use a piece of tofu to kill herself.)

An Yue and all of the shadow guards reluctantly took away their blades from Lin Ming Tian's neck, but they still glared menacingly at him as if they were saying 'You little punk, we did not trust you at all'.

Both Lin Ming Tian and Ling Yuyan secretly sighed in relief.

Lin Ming Tian still did not dare to move or talk under the menacing stare of An Yue and all of the shadow guards.

Meanwhile, Ling Yuyan had currently suffered a great headache because of this.

Previously, she planned to retreat back to Wang Family's mansion before Lin Ming Tian woke up, so he would not have any idea about who had saved him.

But who knew that Lin Ming Tian could actually wake up before they finished copying all of Lin Ming Tian's books and [Life Seal Condensing Method] which completely ruined her plan?!

'Sigh, I am really so stupid. Lin Ming Tian has practiced [Life Seal Condensing Method], so it makes sense that his recovery speed is several times higher than the others. how the heck could I forget about that?!' Ling Yuyan lamented in her heart.

Unfortunately, there was no medicine for regret, and she also could not turn back the time, so she could only try to think of some reasonable excuses to fix this awkward situation.

Ling Yuyan gnashed her teeth to gather her courage before she stepped forward to face Lin Ming Tian with a soothing dazzling smile on her stunningly beautiful face.

"Err, Big Brother... I am really sorry if my bodyguards scared you. It's my fault for screaming in surprise, so they might think you want to hurt me." Ling Yuyan explained patiently to Lin Ming Tian.

Don't look at this protagonist Lin Ming Tian looks like a dull naive young man right now, but he will become a ruthless martial god in the future.

Ling Yuyan really did not want this future ruthless martial god to have any misunderstandings and hold a grudge against her or An Yue.

"No, uhh... Young Miss, it's also my fault for startling you so much before." Lin Ming Tian shook his head and blamed himself instead.

Then Lin Ming Tian took a glance at An Yue and all of her shadow guards who blatantly continued to copy all of the books and [Life Seal Condensing Method] right in front of his face without caring about his opinion at all.

Ling Yuyan facepalmed helplessly, and she became even more embarrassed at Lin Ming Tian.

Ling Yuyan racked her brain so hard to think how to explain it to Lin Ming Tian.

"Your books fell out from your clothes when my bodyguard found you and carried you here. I think your medical books are very useful, so I tell my bodyguards to copy them first before asking for your permission after you wake up." Ling Yuyan tried to explain again to Lin Ming Tian.

Then she lowered her head to Lin Ming Tian and apologized sincerely: "I am truly sorry for my impudence, Big Brother. If you don't agree with it, I can let my bodyguards destroy the copied books right now."

Well, all of the copied medical books could be destroyed right in front of Lin Ming Tian, but she would definitely let An Yue secretly hide the copied [Life Seal Condensing Method] if Lin Ming Tian really disagreed.

Fortunately for Ling Yuyan, Lin Ming Tian was currently still a nice naive guy.

He hastily shook her hands while saying: "There is no need for you to go that far, Young Miss. Your people have already saved my life before, so I am more than happy to let you all copy my books."

Lin Ming Tian lowered his head sadly as he muttered in a great sorrowful tone: "Actually, I no longer have anything to repay your kindness other than my books."

Ling Yuyan sighed as she patted Lin Ming Tian's right shoulder gently to encourage him.

But Lin Ming Tian grimaced in pain instead, and even his face instantly turned paler.

Even though he was still alive right now, but some of the assassins' secret weapons had been embedded quite deep into his shoulder and waist before.

Lin Ming Tian had already pulled out and thrown away the secret weapons before, but he did not have any time to treat any of his wounds until now.

[Life Seal Condensing Method] would definitely be able to cure any wounds rapidly, but unfortunately, the current Lin Ming Tian had only superficially practiced the [Life Seal Condensing Method], and he was still so far from completely mastered it.

Lin Ming Tian took Blood Clotting Powder from his cloth bag and tried to treat his wounds.

Ling Yuyan quickly helped him out, and she even helped him to bandage the wounds.

Lin Ming Tian secretly felt even more grateful to Ling Yuyan.

After that, both of them sat beside the warm bonfire, and they began to chat with each other.

At first, Lin Ming Tian still had some suspicions that Ling Yuyan's bodyguards were actually the assassins who killed his family.

But he immediately realized that he blamed Ling Yuyan and her people wrongly.

As a physician carefully trained by his father, Lin Ming Tian has an extremely sharp sense of smell.

He did not smell any blood from Ling Yuyan, An Yue, and the Shadow Guards at all, so Lin Ming Tian concluded that they did not have any connection with the assassins who killed his family.

It could be said that Ling Yuyan was quite lucky that she did not order An Yue and her Shadow Guards to kill any assassins, or Lin Ming Tian might have some suspicion that they were in the same group as the assassins who killed his family right now.

Meanwhile, Ling Yuyan was silently considering whether she should tell her true identity to Lin Ming Tian or just tell him a fake identity.

In the end, Ling Yuyan decided to be honest and tell Lin Ming Tian her true identity since Lin Ming Tian have a close connection with the Wang Family, and he would meet with Wang Meng Huan and Wang Qingling sooner or later.

"My name is Ling Yuyan. I am the maid under the sixth young miss of the Wang Family, Miss Wang Qingling. How about you, Big Brother?" Ling Yuyan introduced herself while pretending not to know Lin Ming Tian's identity at all.

"What?! So, you are from Wang Family?! I am Lin Ming Tian, the son of the Lin Family's patriarch! Did you send by Wang Family to look for me?" Lin Ming Tian exclaimed in an excited tone.

"The son of the Lin Family's patriarch, Lin Ming Tian?! So, you are still alive?! I heard the entire Lin Family's manor had been razed to the ground, and all of the people in the Lin Family's manor had disappeared without any trace." Ling Yuyan exclaimed in shock and surprise.

Ling Yuyan secretly admired her own acting skill in her heart.

Anyway, Wang Family should have already checked Lin Family's manor right now, but they should have failed to find any clue there.

All of the assassins Jing Weiyuan sent were veterans, so it was impossible for them to make any blunder like leaving any clue behind.

Lin Ming Tian staggered and fell into a daze after he heard Ling Yuyan's words.

"I see... So, father and everyone should have already..." He closed his eyes and lowered his head as tears trickled down his cheeks.
