Chapter 0272 – The Sword is at War – The Absolute Return

by GreatBrother(위대한 다오 형제)

Qin Xiajun was about to board the carriage to the Thousand Flowers Sect when his younger sister, Qin Xialing, blocked his way.

"You’re going to the Thousand Flower Sect’s banquet?" Qin Xia Ling’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, her tone carrying a bit of displeasure.

"What? You came here just to ask me this?" Qin Xiajun looked at his sister with some surprise, not understanding why she was suddenly concerned about this.

"Of course I’m coming! You’re my brother, I came to give you a ride, shouldn’t I?" Qin Xia Ling said with a straight face.

"When did you learn this?" Qin Xiajun teased.

Since their parents died at a young age, the two siblings rely on each other for life, naturally deep feelings. But Qin Xia Ling so solemnly come to see off, or the first time.

"Is it because …… Sword Wuji?" Qin Xiajun asked tentatively.

"What are you babbling about?" Qin Xia Ling’s pretty face slightly reddened as she retorted in a pretense of composure.

Qin Xiajun knew that the last time in Little Dragon Town, his sister had a chance with Jian Wuji, and it was only thanks to the other party’s help that she was able to turn the danger into a success.

Qin Xia Ling could neither deny nor admit it.

If she admitted that she was worried for her brother, it would seem too deliberate; but if she admitted that it was for Jian Wu Ji, she was afraid of causing unnecessary misunderstandings.

"He is not a simple character, you must not take it lightly." Qin Xia Ling said in an evasive manner, "I came here to remind you of this."

"I also know that he is extraordinary, don’t worry, I will be careful." Qin Xiajun nodded solemnly.

Qin Xia Ling pulled her brother’s arm and said in an urgent tone, "You must remember, never look at him with prejudice! Don’t because he comes from a demonic sect, just ……"

Qin Xiajun had never seen Jian Wuji before, so naturally he could not understand why his sister was so nervous.

"This son, Jian Wuji, is now gaining momentum, if he is not curbed now, he will surely have endless troubles in the future!"

Qin Xia Ling had also been paying attention to the news about Jian Wuji, and those rumors had shocked her. She couldn’t help but recall the scene back in Little Dragon Town when Jian Wuji was first introduced to her:

"I, Sword Smoke, am not the ‘fate’ of ‘fate,’ but the ‘smoke’ of ‘smoke ‘. I am like this smoke, which will eventually dissipate without a trace."

Perhaps, in her heart, he has always been that young man named "Sword Smoke", rather than the famous young master of the Demon Sect. She wanted to congratulate him face to face, but reason told her that between them, they have long been two worlds of people.

Qin Xiajun did not know what was in his sister’s mind, in his opinion, Jian Wuji was the Demon Sect’s Young Sect Leader, a huge threat to the future of the martial arts world.

"I believe that evil cannot defeat good, and no matter how powerful he is, he will eventually be defeated by the power of justice! You don’t have to worry."

"But …… what if he is a Demon Warrior?" Qin Xia Ling hesitated for a moment before finally asking the biggest doubt in her heart.

He was a member of the Devil Cult, but his heart was filled with chivalry. Although she didn’t think about this in Little Dragon Town, after they parted, whenever she thought of Jian Wuji, the word "Demon Chivalry" would always appear in her mind. He is not bound by the world’s rules and regulations, but always adhere to their own principles, he is not the kind of indecisive, forward-looking chivalrous, but a fastidious, courageous and courageous hero of the Devil’s Way.

"There is no such thing as a magic warrior in this world. That’s just a fabrication of the jianghu storytellers. A warrior is a man who serves his country and the people, is he not something those bloodthirsty devil cultists can do?" Qin Xiajun shook his head, clearly not agreeing with his sister’s statement.

Qin Xiajun boarded the carriage and slowly drove away from the Qin Family Fort, surrounded by the accompanying guards.

Qin Xia Ling watched her brother go away with mixed feelings in her heart.

She believed in her brother, and she also believed in Jian Wu Ji.

But she also understands that today’s jianghu, has long been not that simple jianghu. All forces have long been killing each other in order to compete for power, who can guarantee that in this power struggle, they will not lose themselves?

Looking at the far away carriage, Qin Xia Ling’s heart was filled with worry. This never-before-seen worry made her realize that she was no longer that naive young girl, and the Jianghu, too, was rolling away in an unknown direction.

"Why us?"

As soon as they met, the Blood Heavenly Blade Demon couldn’t help but open his mouth and complain.

However, Jian Wuji still heard a hint of excitement in his feignedly disgruntled tone. After all, this was the first time that the two major Demon Dignitaries of the Demon Sect had been summoned by the Young Sect Master to participate in such an important action.

"Because we need to create a terrifying atmosphere, as if …… the Hunan branch rudder was suddenly attacked and had to ring the alarm bell for help." Jian Wuji explained with a smile.

When the Blood Heavenly Blade Demon heard this, he glanced askance at the Fist Demon beside him, and seeing that the other party had no intention of retorting, he then slightly nodded his head, as if he was quite satisfied with this arrangement. Looking at the entire Devil Sect, I’m afraid that the only one who dared to be so unbridled in front of the Fist Demon was the Blood Heavenly Saber Demon.

"What about me? What do you want with me?" Fist Demon asked in a jarring voice.

In the Blood Heavenly Blade Demon’s opinion, such a thing as creating a horrifying atmosphere was naturally the most appropriate thing to leave to the Fist Demon.

"Because I still need a resourceful military advisor." Jian Wuji said in a serious manner.

"What?!"

The Blood Heavenly Blade Demon immediately stared at Jian Wuji with wide eyes in disbelief.

"What nonsense are you talking about kid?!"

Without waiting for the Blood Heavenly Blade Demon to lash out, Jian Wuji rushed to him with an arrow step and hugged him tightly.

"Elder, I miss you so much!"

As a matter of fact, Jian Wuji already had a plan in his mind: Fist Demon was in charge of "force", and Blood Heavenly Sword Demon was in charge of "intimidation".

The Blood Heavenly Blade Demon was somewhat overwhelmed by Jian Wuji’s sudden enthusiasm, and wanted to break free, but realized that he was unable to shake the other party even a bit.

"You kid …… get off me!"

It was not easy to pacify the Blood Heavenly Blade Demon, and only then did Jian Wuji walk up to the Fist Demon and respectfully salute.

"Master, it’s been a long time."

"Well, what do you need me to do?" Fist Demon still had that unsmiling look.

If it were someone else, I’m afraid that they would be shocked by his cold and icy attitude. However, Jian Wuji knew that underneath this seemingly cold exterior of his master, there was actually a fiery heart hidden.

"Master, I want to ……" Sword Wuji approached Fist Demon’s ear and whispered his plan.

"Okay, let’s go!"

After hearing Jian Wuji’s plan, the Fist Demon did not hesitate in the slightest, and immediately got up and was about to set off.

"Wait for me, Master!"

Looking at the two seniors’ fighting spirit, Jian Wuji’s heart was filled with confidence.

"This time, let’s join together and stir up the wind and clouds of the entire Jianghu!"

As night falls and the lights come on, the Thousand Flowers Gate is decorated with lights and colors, ready to welcome the upcoming guests.

Dressed in fancy clothes, Xu Bai Chong anxiously paced back and forth in front of the door.

The originally agreed upon time had already passed, but those sect leaders who were dependent on the Thousand Flower Sect were slow to show up. It would be bad if they were allowed to arrive before Qin Xiajun!

"What’s going on? Why hasn’t it come yet?" Xu Bai Chong was so anxious that he couldn’t help but open his mouth to ask his beloved Liu Meng beside him.

Liu Meng was also confused and stammered, "I think …… it should be soon ……"

"Should? What do you mean should? You go and see for yourself what’s going on!" Xu Bai Chong angrily rebuked.

"Yes, Sect Master!"

Liu Meng didn’t dare to slack off and turned away in a hurry.

"Report! The Demon Exterminating Squad Leader has arrived!"

Just at this moment, the sound of a disciple reporting suddenly came from outside the door.

"What?!"

Xu Bai Chong was shocked when he heard this. Qin Xiajun had unexpectedly arrived early!

The gate slowly opened, and a group of martial artists wearing uniform costumes, fishtailed into the room.

Walking at the front was a young man wearing silver armor, he had a straight figure and a handsome face, but between his eyebrows there was an aura of unruffled authority that made people not dare to look directly at him.

"He’s Demon Extermination Team Lord Qin Xiajun?"

Xu Qing stood behind his father, curiously sizing up the visitor. He had originally planned to take this opportunity to make good friends with this future Martial Alliance Master, but he had not expected that the other party’s aura would be so powerful that he would not even have the courage to go forward to greet him.

Behind Qin Xiajun, he was followed by an old man dressed in white with a long sword hanging from his waist.

Although this old man was old, he was hale and hearty, immortal, and exuded a transcendent temperament, as if he did not eat earthly fire.

"Sword …… sword fairy!"

Xu Baizhong recognized the identity of the visitor at a glance and was scared out of his wits.

The person who came was none other than the famous Sword Immortal Li Xuexin in the Jianghu!

"Greetings to Senior Sword Immortal!"

Xu Baizhong rushed forward and bowed deeply.

"Uh-huh." Lee Hak-Shin nodded slightly in return.

He had great disdain in his heart for this behavior of the Thousand Flower Sect. However, due to the request of his old friend, he couldn’t say anything more.

"Sect Master Xu, how have you been?" Qin Xiajun stepped forward and greeted with a smile.

"Young warrior Qin, long time no see, long time no see." Xu Bai Chong hurriedly piled up a full smile and greeted him warmly, "Come in, come in!"

Qin Xiajun was not polite and walked straight into the hall.

Li Xuexin did not follow Qin Xiajun to his seat, but chose to stand aside, quietly observing everything around him. He had already promised his old friend that he would protect Qin Xiajun’s safety, so naturally, he would not take it lightly.

"Sect Master Xu, those sect leaders who are dependent on your sect, why haven’t they arrived yet?" Qin Xiajun looked around and realized that apart from the disciples of the Thousand Flower Sect, he didn’t see any other sect’s people, so he opened his mouth and asked.

"Oh, they ah ……," Xu Bai Chong laughed awkwardly and casually perfunctorily said, "They all wanted to catch up with Young Warrior Qin alone, so they purposely came one step late."

"Oh? Is that so?" Qin Xiajun looked at Xu Baishong with a smirk, clearly not believing his words.

"Young warrior Qin, you do not know, my Thousand Flowers Sect in the Hunan territory, is also counted as one of the major sects, dependent on my door, not a hundred, there are also eighty ……"

Xu Baishong wanted to continue bragging about it, but he was interrupted by Qin Xiajun.

"Sect Master Xu, you and I are not outsiders, so let’s open up the windows and talk." Qin Xiajun put down the wine cup in his hand and said in a light tone, "I know that the reason why you chose to cooperate with my Martial Arts Alliance is nothing more than wanting to utilize our power to annex those sects that are dependent on you, thus strengthening the Thousand Flower Sect."
