Chapter 0290 – Trust and Warmth – Absolute Return

Qin Xia Ling looked at her brother with some concern in her heart, she wondered if he could just go with the flow.</p>

Relationships between people are not something that can be controlled at will.</p>

"It seems that we, brother and sister, are both emotional people." Qin Xia Ling said.</p>

"Maybe." Qin Xiajun said.</p>

The two walked out of the medical center and into the courtyard.</p>

Jian Wuji stood in the courtyard and looked up at the sky.</p>

Qin Xialing walked up to him and asked, "What are you looking at?"</p>

"I’m looking at the color of the sky, that’s the color of my Sword Dipper." Jian Wuji said.</p>

"It’s better than dying in this gray place." Qin Xia Ling said.</p>

When Jian Wuji heard this, he turned his head, looked at her, and asked, "Are you alright?"</p>

"I’m fine, thanks to you." Qin Xia Ling said.</p>

"You don’t look too good, get some rest, we’ll see you next time." Jian Wuji said.</p>

There was some reluctance in Qin Xia Ling’s heart, she still wanted to stay with Jian Wuji for a while longer.</p>

"You can stay a little longer." Qin Xia Ling said in her heart.</p>

However, she knew that she couldn’t say that because there was an insurmountable chasm between her and Jian Wuji.</p>

"Before you go, tell me, how do I have to become as strong as you?" Qin Xiaoling asked.</p>

"Cultivate hard." Jian Wuji said.</p>

"You play all day long, how do you have time to cultivate?" Qin Xia Ling asked.</p>

"True cultivation is invisible." Jian Wuji said.</p>

Just then, Qin Xiajun walked over and said, "I heard Grandpa say something about your master."</p>

He could never have imagined that there would be someone, behind the scenes, manipulating his master.</p>

"Thanks to you, we were able to discover the truth." Jian Wuji said, "If you hadn’t discovered your master’s abnormality, we might have been in danger."</p>

When Qin Xiajun heard this, his heart was filled with fear, if they hadn’t discovered Bo Qianjing’s abnormality, they might have been betrayed by Bo Qianjing at a critical moment.</p>

"You’re the one who taught me to look closely and think with my heart." Qin Xiajun said.</p>

From now on, no matter who he faced, he would observe carefully and think with his heart, and would never trust anyone so easily again.</p>

"In the future, no matter what you do, be careful." Jian Wuji said.</p>

"You too." Qin Xiajun said.</p>

"Thanks for saving Xia Ling." Qin Xiajun said.</p>

"You can just repay me later." Jian Wuji said.</p>

Qin Xiajun smiled faintly at his words, he knew that Jian Wuji was joking.</p>

"Then we’ll see you next time." Qin Xiajun said.</p>

Jian Wuji nodded, then looked at Qin Xia Ling and said, "See you later."</p>

"Are we still friends?" Qin Xiaoling asked.</p>

Jian Wuji nodded and said, "Near our Demon Sect’s headquarters, there’s a tavern that has good wine and a nice owner, so I’ll treat you to a drink next time."</p>

Qin Xia Ling knew that they might never see each other again, but she nodded anyway.</p>

Jian Wuji leaped and disappeared into the night.</p>

"Brother, we have to work hard too, we can’t let the people of the Demon Sect, be more powerful than us." Qin Xia Ling said.</p>

Qin Xiajun didn’t say anything, just striding forward.</p>

Qin Xia Ling knew that her brother would work hard, he would never lose to anyone.</p>

She looked at the direction where Jian Wuji disappeared, her heart filled with reluctance.</p>

But she knew that she had to let go, she had to move on.</p>

She wants to be the "No. 1 Sword in Hubei", she wants to be the "No. 1 Sword in the World".</p>

Liam was in the kitchen of the stronghold, preparing dinner for the Blood Sky Blade Demon and the Fist Demon.</p>

She suddenly wanted to cook a meal for them to thank them for saving Qin Xia Ling.</p>

She could only cook a few simple dishes, but she did her best.</p>

"Two seniors, please enjoy your meal." Li An said as he brought the meal to the table.</p>

"You can eat together as well." The Blood Sky Blade Demon said.</p>

"No, I ……" Liam said.</p>

"Eat together." Fist Demon chimed in.</p>

Liam was so gracious that he had to sit down and eat with them.</p>

It was a great honor to eat at the same table as the two Demon Lords.</p>

She was a little nervous and didn’t know what to say.</p>

"This dish, it’s a bit bland." The Blood Heavenly Blade Demon said as he ate.</p>

He spoke, always straight to the point, and would not say anything against his will to take care of someone’s face.</p>

"Ah, I’m sorry, I ……" Liam said in a hurry, "I’ll just go and redo it."</p>

"No need." Fist Demon suddenly said, as he pressed Li An’s hand and said, "Being lighter is good for your body."</p>

"Who said that?" Blood Heavenly Blade Demon asked.</p>

"The Demon Doctor said so." Fist Demon said.</p>

Li An smiled and her heart warmed, she didn’t expect that the Fist Demon would say such words.</p>

It seems that the Demon Dons, too, are not all cold and heartless.</p>

"Why do you suddenly want to cook for us?" Blood Heavenly Blade Demon asked.</p>

Li An of course had a reason, she was impressed by the strength and vigor that the two Demon Elders had displayed in the battle, and she wanted to show her respect.</p>

"It’s a rare opportunity to cook a meal for the two seniors." Li An said.</p>

She suddenly remembered a phrase that Xu Dalong often said:</p>

"When I have a child in the future, I’ll be sure to tell him that his mother, back in the day, had cooked for the Blood Heavenly Blade Demon and the Fist Demon."</p>

"You should also tell him that the meal is light." The Blood Heavenly Blade Demon said.</p>

Li An sniffed.</p>

"If it’s a child of you and Wuji, it must be very powerful." Fist Demon suddenly said.</p>

Li An sniffed and froze, suspecting that she had heard wrong.</p>

"Senior, what did you …… you say?" Li An asked.</p>

"I said, if it’s a child of you and Wuji, it must be awesome." Fist Demon repeated.</p>

"Senior, you …… don’t joke." Li An said, "How could I possibly marry the Young Sect Master? I used to be just an ordinary jianghu person."</p>

"What does it matter? The Sect Leader and Wuji, neither of them are the type of people who care about status." Fist Demon said.</p>

The Blood Heavenly Blade Demon also nodded in agreement.</p>

Li An Xin was touched, she didn’t expect that the Fist Demon would say such words.</p>

In her mind, however, there was always a lump.</p>

"I …… don’t even know who my parents are ……" Liam said.</p>

"Family members, sometimes, are just enemies, it’s better not to know." The Blood Sky Blade Demon said.</p>

"If you really mind, I can be your father." Fist Demon suddenly said.</p>

Li An was stunned when she heard this, and the chopsticks in her hand, fell to the ground.</p>

She had never spoken to the Fist Demon alone, so why would he suddenly say something like that? Was it because he was impressed with her at the late night practice party? Or was there another reason? Was he joking? Had she misheard him?</p>

Her mind was filled with doubt and she didn’t know what to say.</p>

Just then, Jian Wuji walked in.</p>

"I’m back." Jian Wuji said.</p>

He could tell right away that something was off in the room.</p>

"When I left, I was fine, how did I suddenly become like this?" Jian Wuji asked.</p>

The Blood Sky Blade Demon broke the silence and said, “Because the meal was too bland.”
