Chapter 0165 – Is This Paradise – The Absolute Return
by GreatBrother(위대한 다오 형제)Qin Xia Ling’s sword transformed into a dazzling array of phantoms in the sky.</p>
The opponent tried his best to resist, but was never able to break through her sword net, and in the end, could only helplessly admit defeat.</p>
"I lost."</p>
As her opponent withdrew his sword, Qin Xia Ling raised her hands in the air and signaled to the crowd.</p>
Thunderous cheers immediately resounded throughout the martial arts arena.</p>
"Chun Hsia-ling, the best!"</p>
"That’s so cool, Chun Hsia-ling!"</p>
"The winner will be Qin Xia-Ling!"</p>
"The most beautiful woman in Hubei, Chun Hsia-ling!"</p>
However, today, she did not hear those long-awaited words. She looked around, but she did not see Jian Wuji’s figure.</p>
"Is he hurt?"</p>
She had heard that Sword Wuji’s male son, had been seriously injured in the Elite Eight, and perhaps, as a result, he was unable to come and watch the battle. Although she knew this, it was still hard to avoid some loss in her heart. How she wished that he could come here, even if it was just to take a look.</p>
"The male is injured, he definitely can’t leave."</p>
With a tinge of regret, she walked out of the ring, but was surprised to find that Zhao Xin was waiting for her.</p>
"Congratulations to Ms. Jinn on her victory."</p>
If it was before, she would have given him a cold stare, but today, she went against the grain and gave him a smile.</p>
"Thanks."</p>
"If Ms. Jin can win the championship, I will definitely hold a grand celebration banquet for you."</p>
"Mind you, I have to prepare for my next match."</p>
Qin Xia Ling Slightly clasping her fists, she turned around and left.</p>
Zhao Xin felt that her attitude towards me today seemed much gentler than before.</p>
"Could it be that what that guy said was true?"</p>
He said he knew women well enough to change the image she had of me in her mind if I showed a little favor.</p>
"This kid, he’s pretty useful."</p>
However, he didn’t know that the reason why Qin Xia Ling changed her attitude towards him was because last night, Grandpa had made it clear that he wouldn’t force her to marry anyone.</p>
If that’s the case, why do I have to go toe-to-toe with him and cause trouble for myself? After the Dragon War is over, I’ll never see him again. I will join the elite organization of the Martial Arts Alliance and start a new life.</p>
"My friend, I hope your male son recovers soon."</p>
So that I can hear your voice again, cheering me on as the crowd cheers.</p>
Meanwhile, Jian Wuji was carrying his male son on his back, running wildly all the way.</p>
"Ahhhhhhhh! It’s too fast! Too fast!"</p>
Jian Wuji executed his lightweight skill, carrying Xu Dalong on his back as he flew through the mountains and forests. Xu Dalong was lying on his back and could only let out bursts of exclamations.</p>
It’s really too fast! Even if he used his lightweight skills, he couldn’t have run so fast, right? What’s more, he was carrying someone on his back!</p>
Xu Dalong didn’t dare to open his eyes at all, and when he occasionally opened them, he could only see the surrounding scenery flying backwards, making him dizzy. This guy, how on earth did he see the road? Isn’t he afraid of crashing into a tree or a rock? I’m about to faint from fear!</p>
What surprised him even more was that despite the speed, he felt incredibly comfortable. Although his heart was filled with fear and uneasiness, Jian Wuji’s true qi firmly shielded him, allowing him to remain stable even in the midst of the bumps.</p>
"How is this possible? How can he run so fast and still be distracted to protect me?"</p>
If he hadn’t experienced it himself, he would never have believed it. He had been shocked by Jian Wuji time and time again, but he had never thought that he had such amazing strength. No, there was something even more shocking to him, he had actually run wildly all the way without the slightest pause. His internal strength, just how deep was it?</p>
"I shouldn’t be dreaming, should I? Perhaps I passed out in the ring and am now dreaming? Could …… I be dead?"</p>
All sorts of whimsical thoughts kept popping up in his mind until they finally arrived at their destination.</p>
It was a small, remote village, hundreds of miles away from the city where the Martial Arts Alliance was located.</p>
"Ahhhhh! Is this the Elysium?"</p>
Xu Dalong jumped off Sword Wuji’s back, staggered a few steps, and sat on his butt on the ground. He felt the heavens spinning and dizzy, and he almost threw up.</p>
"Whew! Finally alive, this is indeed Elysium, it feels so good to have your feet on the ground."</p>
He wiped a handful of messy hair and looked around, his heart filled with doubt. I was prepared for hellish cultivation, yet he said that he would take me to the Elysium, but in the end, he brought me to this poor countryside?</p>
"Let’s go over there and take a break."</p>
At the entrance to the village there was a stone table on which a child was lying down reading a book.</p>
Xu Dalong was even more puzzled, we ran all the way wildly just to come here to rest? And, still at the entrance of the village, sharing a stone table with a child?</p>
Something even stranger was yet to come. Jian Wuji walked up to the child and said, "Little friend, go get a pot of ‘Hundred Insects Brew’."</p>
Hearing him, the kid put down his book, yawned, and asked, "Who introduced you?"</p>
Hearing this conversation, Xu Dalong instantly understood that what Jian Wuji had just said was a cryptic remark.</p>
"Demonism."</p>
Hearing those two words, Xu Dalong was shocked. Ever since we came down from the mountain, Jian Wuji has never revealed his identity to outsiders.</p>
The kid, on the other hand, didn’t react as if he hadn’t understood those two words.</p>
"Tell your stewards that I’m here this time, it’s a private matter, just follow the rules."</p>
"Yes, please wait."</p>
As the child turned to leave, Xu Dalong hurriedly asked, "What is this place?"</p>
"The Gates of Elysium."</p>
"It’s not like Elysium at all."</p>
"What is your idea of Elysium, what does it look like?"</p>
"This ……"</p>
"Were you just thinking about beautiful women, wine and food, night after night?"</p>
Xu Dalong immediately blushed in his old face.</p>
"Not at all!"</p>
Although he denied it with his mouth, his expression, however, betrayed him. It seems that what he was thinking, was even more unpleasant than what I said.</p>
"The world says that the world of ultimate happiness is a beautiful place to live in, but I don’t know that it’s just an illusion leading to hell. Hahaha ……"</p>
"Virtuous monk, stop pretending and hurry up and call out your steward! What exactly is this place?"</p>
"Go and you’ll see."</p>
After a while, the kid came back.</p>
"Please follow me."</p>
Jian Wuji and Xu Dalong followed the child and walked into a winding path.</p>
The path, which was covered in formations, would be lost if the correct entrance wasn’t found, and one would end up being teleported elsewhere.</p>
Passing through the formation, a huge manor appeared in front of him.</p>
A plaque hangs over the front door of the estate:</p>
Ultimate Bliss Wishes.</p>
It is not "Paradise of Ultimate Bliss" but "Wish for Ultimate Bliss", which means "wish to be born in the world of ultimate bliss".</p>
"Is this really Elysium?"</p>
"Didn’t I say I was going to bring you to Elysium?"</p>
The two followed the child, into the manor, where an old woman, was standing in the courtyard, waiting for them.</p>
Although she had a head full of white hair, she was straight-backed and hale and hearty, not at all like a dying old man. Only, on her head and arms, there were bandages wrapped around her head, and she seemed to have suffered a serious injury.</p>
"You’re from the Demon Cult?"</p>
"Exactly."</p>
"May I have credentials?"</p>
Jian Wuji released a trace of demonic aura, and that powerful demonic aura was enough to prove his identity.</p>
"Enough! Don’t release this filth! Ugh! Bah!" The old woman hurriedly grabbed a handful of salt and sprinkled it on herself, she seemed to have no fear of the Devil Cult, whatsoever.</p>
"Your cultivation is truly unfathomable."</p>
"I’m flattered."</p>
"Why did you reveal your identity?"</p>
"Even if I don’t say it, you should know."</p>
"You know me well? That’s good to know then. Tell me, what do you want?"</p>
