Chapter 0281 – See You Again As You Were – The Absolute Return

Although Bo Qianjing’s words were filled with mockery, Qin Xiajun didn’t flinch in the slightest as he firmly said, "The Tianhua Sect can be recaptured again when it’s gone, but She Sister, I will never allow anyone to harm her!"</p>

"If that’s the case, then why don’t you go and warn that devil yourself?" Bo Qianjing asked.</p>

"She won’t be able to listen to my words." Qin Xiajun’s tone was filled with bitterness, "In the matter of the Tianhua Sect, he teased me all sorts of times, not putting me in the slightest bit of regard, and now if I step in to stop it, he will only intensify his efforts to get closer to Sher Sister. That Jian Wuji, is by no means a good person."</p>

"If you can’t, then go beg your grandfather to step in and settle the matter." Bo Qianjing said.</p>

"Master, it’s not like you don’t know Grandfather’s temperament, if we let his old man know about this matter, he will definitely be furious and break that devil into pieces. At that time, I’m only afraid that it would provoke that devil to do something crazy." Qin Xiajun said, "Since that devil dared to come alone, it means that he has something to rely on, we cannot act rashly."</p>

"This matter has nothing to do with me, and you don’t need to come back to me." Bo Qianjing balked, "What can I do about something that you and your grandfather can’t solve?"</p>

When Qin Xiajun heard this, he bent his knees and fell to the ground, saying in a deep voice, "What she-sister means to me, Master, you know best. For so many years, I have always respected you as a father ……"</p>

Said here, Qin Xiajun’s voice slightly choked, these words, sentences from the heart, but also word for word heartbreak.</p>

"I also ask Master to look at my disciple’s filial piety and grant my request!"</p>

"Rustle Rustle Rustle ……" Bo Qianjing didn’t say anything, just lowered his head and continued to carve the wood carving in his hands.</p>

Qin Xiajun didn’t get up either, and just knelt on the ground, quietly waiting for his master’s reply.</p>

I don’t know how long it took, but Bo Qianjing finally put down the carving knife in his hand and slowly spoke, "Tomorrow, bring him to me."</p>

"Master has agreed." Qin Xiajun’s face finally showed some joy.</p>

Jian Wuji seemed to have anticipated this and said indifferently, "I knew that you would be able to do it."</p>

Nowadays, compliments are irrelevant.</p>

"How do you plan to respond? Do you really want to fight my master with swords?" Qin Xiajun asked.</p>

"Let’s talk about it when the time comes." Jian Wuji’s tone carried a bit of playfulness, "Aren’t you afraid that I’ll kill your master?"</p>

Jian Wuji’s gaze was firmly fixed on Qin Xiajun, as if he wanted to see through him.</p>

"How dare you!" Qin Xiajun glared angrily at Jian Wuji, but it was hard to hide a hint of panic in his tone.</p>

"What would I not dare to do?" Jian Wuji asked rhetorically, "I’m a member of the Devil Cult, killing and setting fires, I do no evil."</p>

Qin Xiajun stood up, turned to go, but then stopped at the door, turned back and asked, "Have you …… ever had a time of confusion?"</p>

During this period of time, he had been thinking about this issue, on the one hand, he wanted to utilize Jian Wuji’s power to save his sister, on the other hand, he was worried that he would be used by Jian Wuji, and there was always a voice deep inside that reminded him: master is a good person, you can’t trust Jian Wuji!</p>

"No, my sense of direction has always been good." Jian Wuji’s tone carried a bit of teasing.</p>

Qin Xiajun said in his heart, It’s this cynical look again! Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he heard Jian Wuji’s voice ring out again.</p>

"You are not lost, but you have forgotten where you are going."</p>

"Is there a difference between the two?" Qin Xiajun asked in disbelief.</p>

"In this world, all roads lead to Rome, as long as you know where you’re going, you won’t get lost." Jian Wuji explained.</p>

"What if you even forget where you’re going?" Qin Xiajun pursued.</p>

"Then find a place to cry out in pain." Jian Wuji’s tone carried a few hints of flirtation.</p>

"Don’t joke around, seriously." Qin Xiajun said with a straight face.</p>

Jian Wuji’s mind conjured up scenes of himself traveling over thousands of mountains and through thousands of hardships in order to search for the materials to refine magic treasures, and during those years, he really wanted to let out a cry and give up on everything countless times.</p>

"Then go and ask the passerby, if there is no passerby, then look up at the stars in the sky, if even the stars can not guide the direction, then throw the shoes into the air and let fate decide your direction, if …… even fate has abandoned you, then simply follow the feeling and go wherever you want. "</p>

"Aren’t you afraid?" Qin Xiajun asked.</p>

"Scared of what? It’s all lost anyway." Jian Wuji asked rhetorically.</p>

"!" Qin Xiajun sniffed and was silent for a moment before letting out a long sigh, "You’re really a weirdo."</p>

"You people in the righteous path, you just talk in a literal way, we in the Devil Cult, we all call me crazy." Jian Wuji laughed.</p>

"Then you are a strange madman. Tomorrow morning, I’ll come back for you." After saying that, Qin Xiajun left without looking back.</p>

Jian Wuji looked at Qin Xiajun’s departing back, a complex look flashing in his eyes.</p>

Qin Xiajun is still young and doesn’t know what it’s like to be truly lost, to be truly lost is to not even know that you are lost.</p>

Early the next morning, Jian Wuji followed Qin Xiajun to Bo Qianjing’s residence.</p>

"Master, disciple has brought the Demon Sect’s Young Sect Master, Jian Wuji, to pay his respects." Qin Xiajun said respectfully.</p>

"Come in." A low voice came from inside the house.</p>

When the two of them walked into the house, Qin Xiajun froze, only to see that Master was wearing a bright red robe today, with a long sword on his waist, and was generally as handsome as when they first met.</p>

Jian Wuji and Bo Qianjing looked at each other in all four directions, one with a torch-like gaze as deep as the sea, and the other with a stern, sharp look in their eyes, both of them tried to discern something from the other’s eyes, but both of them came up empty-handed.</p>

The atmosphere was tense, and Jian Wuji took the lead to break the silence, releasing his own aura unreservedly, wanting to test the depths of the other party.</p>

In an instant, Bo Qianjing felt as if he had fallen into an infinite abyss, surrounded by darkness, unable to see his fingers, and an invisible pressure surged from all directions, almost crushing him.</p>

Bo Qianjing didn’t dare to be slow, and hurriedly operated his gong methods to resist this powerful pressure.</p>

At the same time, Jian Wuji also felt a peculiar energy fluctuation, and as he looked around, he realized that he was actually in the middle of a dense forest, with gigantic trees covering the sky, and the sunlight spilling down through the gaps in the leaves, forming spots of light.</p>

"What a powerful spiritual power, it can even pull me into an illusion." Jian Wuji said in his heart, but he did not panic and continued to walk forward.</p>

The sun was shining, the birds were singing, and this forest was full of life, unlike any forest he had seen before.</p>

"Could it be that this person is not a poor and vicious person?" Jian Wuji secretly wondered in his heart, but his intuition told him that things were not that simple.</p>

He continued to go deeper into the forest, but the scenery in front of him was always the same, as if there was no end to this forest.</p>

"No, there must be something odd in here." Jian Wuji secretly said in his heart as he operated the Nine Secrets Demon Technique, carefully sensing the energy fluctuations around him.</p>

Sure enough, with the added power of the Nine Specter Demon Technique, he discovered a hint of abnormality, and in the depths of the forest, there seemed to be something hidden.</p>

He followed the anomaly and traveled along, and finally, he found a human-shaped wooden statue in the deepest part of the forest.</p>

The wooden sculpture is lifelike, as if a real person in general, just a blank face, no carving of the five senses, but even so, still gives a person a weird feeling, as if the next moment, the wooden sculpture will come to life in general.</p>

Just as Jian Wuji wanted to get closer to that wooden sculpture, the surrounding trees suddenly came to life, and a thick branch came at him like a spirit snake, surrounding him.</p>

"Wood Form Thousand Soul Technique!" Jian Wuji recognized this technique at a glance, and his heart immediately set off waves of shock.</p>

This technique was not because of how exquisite it was, but because he knew who had created it.</p>

Back then, after the old man had gone into seclusion, his followers secretly formed an organization called the "Heaven’s Destiny Alliance" in order to avenge his death.</p>

The Divine Fate Alliance consists of twelve supreme masters, known to the world as the "Twelve Kings of the Zodiac".</p>

These twelve zodiac kings, in order to hide their identities, are usually shown in masks, and no one knows their true identities.</p>

Among the twelve kings of the Chinese zodiac, the eighth-ranked "King of the Unknown Goat" practiced the "Wooden Thousand Souls Technique"!</p>

"Could it be that …… you are the Wood King?" Jian Wuji’s heart beat violently, he never dreamed that he would meet the followers of Old Man Demon Transformation here.</p>

This was the first time since he was reborn that he had gone head-to-head with a follower of Elder Demon Transformation!
