Chapter 0353 – Latent Crisis – Absolute Return

“It won’t happen, how in the world can there be trainees who hold a grudge against their instructors? After the training is over, they would have long forgotten all about us.” Judging from the surface alone, Huang Xijing indeed did not look like the type of person with a deep heart.

“Are you enjoying being an instructor?”

“It’s my duty.”

Listening to the conversation between the two, Jian Wuji couldn’t help but be flooded with a question in his mind, “Why does he want to become a trainer?”

With King Slaughter’s strength, it wasn’t difficult to gain a foothold in the Evil Demon Alliance, and it wouldn’t be surprising even if he became a protector.

Is it just a cover-up?

But Instructor Huang of the Four Alliance Pavilion, no one in the Evil Demon Alliance knows or knows about this, this is too high profile, isn’t it?

Just as Jian Wuji fell into deep thought, the conversation between Bi Si An and King Tu continued.

“I was stabbed today.”

“What? Assassination? Are you alright?” King Tu asked in mock surprise.

“I’m fine.”

“What audacious fellow is it that dares ……”

“I don’t know who it is, but what they’re using, is a forbidden weapon of the martial arts.”

“Outrageous! These people are simply devoid of martial virtues, despicable and shameless!” Listening to King Tu’s accusations of righteous indignation, Bi Sifu smiled coldly: How dare you have the face to call others despicable and shameless?

“They dared to assassinate the Young Alliance Master, it’s simply an unforgivable crime! The Young Alliance Master is the future star of the Evil Demon Martial Forest, they must not be allowed to get away with it!”

In fact, Bithan was expecting a different kind of meeting scene.

For example, discovering some clues from Huang Xijing’s words and behavior, and then revealing his true nature.

Or, perhaps, Huang Xijing was annoyed and hit him hard.

In short, he wanted to see something different.

However, Huang Xijing’s performance was dripping with flavor, perfectly interpreting the image of an upright and kindly instructor, as if to say: you must have misunderstood something.

What should he do when faced with such an opponent?

Bi Si An realized that he was still too young. He would only think of a straightforward inquiry like “Did you do it?”, while Jian Wuji could see everything from the smallest detail.

Too impulsive this time.

Since impulsiveness is the devil, you’ll just have to take what you can get.

Bi Sian smiled as he bid farewell to King Tu, “The day I was assassinated, yet Instructor Huang received so many gifts, it seems I have to double my efforts.”

Jian Wuji and Bi Si An stood side by side at the edge of the cliff.

Despite Ichiro’s hundred obstructions and worries that something bad might happen to them at this point, Bi Sian insisted on coming alone with Jian Wuji.

Perhaps it was because of the unique environment of this place, whenever he stood here with Jian Wuji, Bi Sian would feel incredibly relaxed and it would be easier for him to open up his heart.

“The guy who dared to rob me, I will never let him go! I’ll make him, and everyone else involved in this matter, pay a heavy price! I’m the Young Lord of the Evil Demon Alliance!” With these words, he was speaking both to Jian Wuji and to himself.

“I’m more selfish and cold than you can imagine. Even so, do you still want to be friends with me? Don’t say that I lied to you in the future.” Jian Wuji naturally understood why Bi Si An had said those words.

“You regret going to Huang Xijing, don’t you?”

After a moment of silence, Bithan asked, “If it were you, would you go to him?” This was exactly the question he had in mind to inquire.

“Even if we were to go, we wouldn’t pick today.”

“Why?”

“Because I find myself remorseful from time to time for decisions that were made on impulse.”

“Heroes see the same thing.” After learning the truth about his assassination, he was enraged, which is why he rashly went to question Huang Xijing, but the result was nothing, instead, he was shocked by the other party’s aura.

“Then why didn’t you stop me?”

“There are some things that you can only understand if you’ve experienced them firsthand.” Reality, far more cruel than imagined.

Bi Sian sighed long and hard, this was the first time he sighed in front of Jian Wuji, and it was also the first time he showed a weak side in front of others.

Sword Wuji smiled and comforted, “It’s no big deal, we know each other well anyway. Before fighting, we always have to greet each other first, right? Besides, you didn’t come up empty handed this time.”

“What harvest?” Listening to Jian Wuji’s tone, it seemed that he had made some significant discoveries.

“I probably guessed his purpose.” Bi Sian’s eyes widened as he pondered in his heart: could this guy be a mind reader?

“What we saw, was it really the same person?” How come he didn’t realize anything?

Jian Wuji voiced his speculation, “Seeing those piles of gifts, I pondered, why is he acting like this? Why did he go through all the trouble of accumulating prestige? Wouldn’t it be better to keep a low profile if it was just to act in secret? Why does he have to spend time and energy to curry favor with those cadets from the Four Alliance Pavilion?”

After Jian Wuji said this, Bi Si An also felt that there was something strange going on. He held his breath and waited for Jian Wuji to reveal the answer.

“Those trainees who had been taught by him, now I’m sure they’ve all taken up important positions in the Evil Demon Alliance, right? Some have become helmsmen, some have become elders, and there are even those who have risen to become hall masters.”

Bithan asked cautiously, “So, what exactly is his purpose?”

Jian Wuji looked straight at Bi Si’an and said word for word, “You.”

Bithian froze, failing to react for a moment. A moment later, a terrifying thought welled up in his mind.

“You mean he wants to ……”

Jian Wu Jie nodded.

“He wants to be the evil ally.”

“!” He never expected that Huang Xijing’s goal was the position of the Evil Demon Alliance Lord! Instructor and Alliance Lord, the difference between the two was like a world of difference.

“The reason why he wants to put you to death is because you are obstructing his path.” If it were anyone else, Bi Sian was afraid that he would have already broken into a rage: a bunch of nonsense!

“How is this possible?” Bithian’s voice trembled slightly.

“According to his plan, a few years later, he will look for an opportunity to get rid of you, and then wait for an opportunity to assassinate the Alliance Lord. As for the method he will use, I don’t really know, but all in all, once the position of the Alliance Lord is vacant, he will ascend to the throne of the Alliance Lord with his absolute strength. At that time, I’m afraid no one will be able to stop him.”

“Even if he is strong in martial arts, he can’t become the alliance leader, those elders, they won’t agree.”

“Which elders? The elders who are under his control? Or those elders who were taught by him?”

“!”

“At that time, the entire Evil Demon Alliance will support him to become the Alliance Leader. He will no longer be just an instructor, but a revered hero, a deeply hidden expert.”

Bithan’s heart, sank to the bottom.

“There’s no way he could have killed the ally.”

“It’s easy to dodge an open gun, but it’s hard to guard against a hidden arrow, let alone a long-planned assassination. Of course, this is just my speculation, perhaps I’m overthinking it.” Bi Sian, however, was unable to ignore Jian Wuji’s speculation, after all, the other party even dared to strike at him, the Young Alliance Master, what else could they not do?

He was silent for a long time and finally made his decision.

“I’m not going to ask the alliance master for help.” He would resolve this matter with his own strength.

“If I die, please inform the Allies of this.”

“Good.”

Bi Sian looked at Jian Wuji and asked, “At a time like this, shouldn’t you say something like ‘you won’t die’?”

Jian Wuji, however, did not say the words he wanted to hear.

“If you act like this, you will probably lose your life.” He was serious because the opponent was King Slaughter. Regardless of the process, it was bound to be a vicious battle in the end.

“Then why didn’t you stop me?”

Because that’s the only way you can become stronger.

“Is my life so worthless in your eyes?” Bi Si An laughed, this was the happiest he had laughed since he had befriended Jian Wuji.

“You have a nice smile, you need to smile more often in the future.”

“What a time to be saying such things! I’d like to see just how hard my life is!”

“It’s always a pleasure to watch.”

“This guy went to great lengths to try to snatch away my things, but unfortunately, his luck, is not as good as mine.” Bi Sian looked at Jian Wuji, he knew in his heart that Jian Wuji was saying that he was watching the fun, but in reality, he had been secretly helping him, paving the way for him and buying him time to become the protagonist of this battle.

With that kind of luck and friends, what reason could he have to lose?

“Let’s go, it’s not too late to stop him.”
