Oh no! I, the weakling, have become the villain!

Chapter 371 The Thief

"Someone left us a note saying that if we wanted something, we should come to your Jiang family to pick it up."

"The note and everything are right here. Do you think we can deny it to you?"

Jiang Xin originally thought that these people had been tricked into coming to his house.

But after hearing what these people were saying, Jiang Xin was somewhat surprised: "What note?"

“You’re faking it, Jiang Xin. I really didn’t expect you to be this kind of person,” one of the family members said.

The man then pulled out a piece of paper from his hand and said, "Didn't you see it?"

“These were left by your people in my sect last night. They said they were coming to the Jiang family to retrieve the treasure.”

"Yes, we have them here too."

"I have it here too."

In an instant, many people from other sects took out slips of paper with the Jiang family's name on them.

Jiang Xin was completely dumbfounded. He could tell what was going on.

Someone must be taking this opportunity to cause trouble for me; otherwise, the preparations would not be so strange.

Jiang Xin certainly did not send anyone to other sects to do such a thing.

Moreover, these sects all have grudges against the Jiang family, so Jiang Xin is even less likely to do such a thing.

But here's the problem: the slips of paper these people are holding are obviously not fake.

However, Jiang Xin did not do that, so the origin of the note is very suspicious.

Therefore, Jiang Xin naturally said, "Everyone, please listen to me. My Jiang family will definitely not do this."

"Not only would we not do it, but we would also say that no matter what the Jiang family is like, we would never do such a petty and despicable thing."

"I acknowledge that my Jiang family has a grudge against you all, but I, Jiang Xin, am willing to fight you all openly and fairly."

"I wouldn't say it's because I've been messing around with people like this. Things have already come to this point, and I don't know how to explain it."

"But at least I hope you can believe me in one thing: I, Jiang Xin, would never do such a thing."

These people naturally wouldn't listen to Jiang Xin, since they themselves had some grudges against him.

Since there was a past conflict, it was naturally impossible to believe such a thing, so many people said, "I'm talking about Jiang Xin,"

"Do you think we believe what you're saying? Today you either hand over the item, or we'll go find it ourselves."

After he finished speaking, several people from other sects also made their moves, forcing Jiang Xin to take action as well.

After all, this is the situation, and there's nothing that can be done about it if we don't fight back.

Then he might get himself killed, which was something Jiang Xin couldn't accept.

Meanwhile, Xu Yao and Han Yi were watching the show from the sidelines.

This whole thing was originally planned by Xu Yao and Han Yi, so naturally they were happy to see things escalate.

However, at this moment, Jiang Xin was fighting in the arena, while Han Yi whispered to Xu Yao, "So what do we do next?"

"Should we just keep watching them fight? That might not be the right thing to do,"

Xu Yao simply smiled and said, "What's the rush? We're not just watching them fight now; we know what's going on ourselves."

"Our best solution is to secretly help these people find their treasure. Only by finding their treasure can we succeed."

"Only we can handle this matter clearly. In short, we don't need to do anything else, but we know it ourselves," Xu Yao said.

Upon hearing Xu Yao's words, Han Yi understood. It seemed that the two of them were now secretly escalating the matter to an even greater extent.

In this way, Xu Yao deliberately gave these people a hint in secret, and then they found their sect's treasure.

This made these people even angrier at Jiang Xin.

At this moment, the people from these sects all held up their treasures and said to Jiang Xin, "Jiang Xin, you still say you didn't do these things."

"I want to know what you want right now. How dare you? When did your Jiang family stoop to such petty theft?"

When Jiang Xin saw these treasures, he was speechless, because these treasures were actually in his own home.

Jiang Xin was speechless.

At this moment, the people from these sects also launched their attacks, surrounding and besieging Jiang Xin.

Although Jiang Xin's cultivation was quite good, he couldn't possibly handle so many people. So, in desperation, Jiang Xin said to Xu Yao and Han Yi:

"Xu Yao, Han Yi, please help me quickly, or I, Jiang Xin, will die here."

Upon hearing Jiang Xin's words, Xu Yao also said, "Patriarch Jiang Xin, it's not that we don't want to help."

"How can we help you if you've stolen someone else's things and they've come knocking on our door? We can't exactly help them," Xu Yao said.

Han Yi also said, "Yes, Patriarch Jiang Xin, if it were anything else, we could still help you, but what are we supposed to do about this?"

"Isn't this sending us into a fire pit?"

Jiang Xin had nothing to say about this; without Xu Yao and Han Yi's help, Jiang Xin naturally couldn't defeat these people.

Although Jiang Xin's son, Jiang Yue, wanted to help, he was injured by people from other sects earlier when he intervened.

So even if I wanted to help, I wouldn't dare to, so I'm in this situation.

Naturally, he was powerless to do anything about it, so he could only watch helplessly as his father was dealt with.

In short, Jiang Xin suffered a terrible beating after being dealt with.

Jiang Xin himself was speechless; in short, it was extremely serious.

Only after the people from the other sects had vented their anger did they leave one by one.

Xu Yao and Han Yi stood by silently, watching.

Jiang Xin didn't say much, but simply asked his son to have someone help him inside.

Xu Yao and Han Yi exchanged a glance and then went straight back to their rooms.

Once the two arrived at the room, Xu Yao burst into laughter: "This time, I think I really had a good time."

"This guy really did what he deserved," Xu Yao said.

Han Yi then asked, "So what's our next step?"
