Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew)
Chapter 2202 Martin's Demand

Martin returned to the warship with a pale-faced Fabien in his hand.

At this moment, Fabien was not only drenched to the skin but also incredibly weak and lethargic. It was true that he had lost the fight, but he was very resentful about it. Had Martin not relied on the natural constraints between different species, he might not have been defeated so quickly.

Meanwhile, Aurelius was surprised that Fabien, whom he had previously thought was merely unsurpassed in the art of poison, could actually rival the Six Kings in strength. Now that such an important partner had been captured by Martin, he couldn't help but plead, "There's a reason for all of this, Mr. Martin. Lord Voodoo attacked Mr. Blanc first, followed by the King of the South, who killed his favorite pet. His anger is justifiable, so please have mercy on him."

At hearing this, Levi shifted his gaze toward Aurelius. However, what the latter said was indeed true, so he said nothing after exchanging a brief look with the man. After that, he turned to look at Martin and Fabien, who was in Martin's grasp.

Martin pondered in silence for a moment. Then, he replied, "It's not that I can't spare his life, of course."

Aurelius' eyes lit up at once. "Mr. Martin, if you have any demands, you may voice them. We, the Damron Family, will pull out all the stops to meet your demands as long as we can."

Martin replied seriously, "I can spare his life as long as he agrees to join the Martial League and become one of its members." He had coveted the secret of Cloud Cave before, but he changed his mind after the fight with Fabien.

At first, he had intended to suppress Fabien's serpent's aura with his eagle's aura, capturing Fabien quickly to prevent the man and Levi from getting injured in a fight with no winners, which would affect his future plans of journeying to the Endless Sea. To his surprise, however, he noticed from the fight just now that Fabien had great potential and might become a King in the future. Although Fabien's current level of cultivation and fighting prowess was only the result of a sudden outburst of his long-accumulated nimbus, the strength he had demonstrated showed that there would be another expert fighter in Cathay one day who deserved the title of King.

In an instant, he felt an appreciation for Fabien's talent, so he only injured Fabien in the end without killing the man. And besides, no matter how magical Cloud Cave was, there was no way it could give rise to such a talented person, or the Bane Family would've long become the greatest family of Cathay.

As soon as Martin voiced such a demand, Fabien's eyes lit up. Without the slightest hesitation, he agreed to it, saying, "Okay, I'll go to Bainbridge and officially join the Martial League after this." After all, he had yet to collect a blood debt, and besides, he had yet to settle the score with Levi for the death of the Rainbow Devil Serpent, his favorite pet. Therefore, he couldn't stop here just yet.

There was another reason why he agreed to Martin's demands so resolutely. Even if Martin didn't lay a hand on him today, Levi would never let him off. Hence, as long as he agreed to join the Martial League, he would gain another layer of protection.

At this moment, Aurelius couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief. "King of Rivenia, thank you for having mercy on Mr. Blanc. Mr. Blanc, let's go back for a rest." After taking his leave, he disembarked from Martin's warship with Fabien.

As for Levi, he had already predicted such an outcome. The moment Martin stepped in for him, he knew that the man's purpose wasn't to kill Fabien. Moreover, not only did Martin's manipulations end up saving Fabien's life, but they also made Fabien agree to join the Martial League. This would restrain Levi while planting a strong future ally for himself in the Martial League in the future. This guy really is worthy of his reputation as a badass in Rivenia. It's obvious how resourceful and broad-minded he is, he thought.
