Chapter 0380 – Dangerous Game – Absolute Return

Qin Botian was adamant that he was going to attend this meeting as well.

Jian Wuji pretended to be surprised and said, “No, you don’t have to go. You just need to, not misunderstand us, that’s all.”

However, Qin Botian said in a strong tone, “If I say I’m going, I’m going!”

Sword Wuji sighed helplessly and said, “Alright then, I will, invite you over as well.”

He is still trying to play the role of an “innocent” young man.

Seeing this scene, in Qin Xia Ling’s heart, besides being surprised, there was more admiration.

In order to achieve his goal, he even dared to count on his grandfather, too!

“How the hell did he do that?”

She had, before, been involved, in the development of this plan, but she had never imagined that it would come to, this.

“If he was an enemy, my brother and I, I’m afraid we would have been played by him, long ago.”

Once again, she felt, that, inexplicable sense of fear from Jian Wuji.

However, now that the plan has worked, the next step is to face reality.

The Martial Arts Alliance, is about to travel to the Heavenly Demon Sect!

Qin Xia Ling immediately switched back to, the identity of the granddaughter of the Martial Arts Alliance Master, and asked, “Then what about Grandpa’s safety?”

When a martial arts alliance master traveled, he would definitely be surrounded by, a multitude of expert guards. However, since it was an invitation issued by the Heavenly Demon Divine Sect, then they must, guarantee Qin Botian’s safety.

“This, you don’t have to worry, Alliance Master, we will be responsible for, your safety. You are our honored guest, we will definitely, treat you well.” Jian Wuji said.

“Who will protect me from you?” Qin Xiaoling asked.

Thinking that, Qin Xia Ling was joking, Jian Wuji smiled and said, “Of course it’s us.”

However, Qin Xia Ling said with a serious face, “You must promise me that you will protect grandpa and won’t let him, suffer any harm.”

Her eyes, as if to say:

“You know, the only reason I said yes is because I believe in you.”

What she believed in was not the Heavenly Demon Divine Sect, but rather Jian Wuji.

In order to stop this war, she even went so far as to be, kicked out of the Martial Arts Alliance by her grandfather.

Jian Wuji looked at Qin Xia Ling and said seriously, “I promise.”

Feeling the sincerity in Jian Wuji’s eyes, Qin Xia Ling finally put her heart down.

“Grandpa, I’m sorry I lied to you. But, I believe that I did it, and it was the right thing to do.”

She believed that Jian Wuji would be able to stop this war. She also believed that her choice would, in the end, prove to be the best choice for her grandfather.

“Allied Lord, I will inform the generals of my sect so that they can prepare for your arrival.” Jian Wuji said to Qin Botian.

“Then I’ll trouble you.” Qin Botian said.

It suddenly occurred to him that it had been a long time since he had seen Bai Zijiang.

“Speaking of which, it’s been a long time, since I’ve seen him.”

Although, he had always thought that Bai Zijiang’s strength was not as good as Jian Wuchen’s, he also knew that Bai Zijiang, by no means, was an idle person.

“If he hears that I’m going to the Heavenly Demon God Sect, will he change his mind?” Qin Botian asked.

“I will personally go and inform him.” Jian Wuji said.

“You’re going personally?” Qin Botian was a bit surprised.

“Such an important matter, of course I must, personally, go and inform him.” Jian Wuji said.

He was willing, at any cost, to make this meeting happen.

“Alright, you go.” Qin Botian said.

“Then I’ll take my leave, Alliance Master.” Jian Wuji said.

“Wait.” Just as Jian Wuji turned around, ready to leave, Qin Botian suddenly called out to him.

“What the hell are you playing at, you kid?”

Jian Wuji looked at Qin Botian and said with a smile, “I just wanted to, let the three old men, get together, chat and drink.”

“Chatting and drinking? Do you think that I would believe that you guys would be that innocent?” Qin Botian said with a cold smile.

“Believe it or not, it’s up to you.” Jian Wuji shrugged and said.

“You brat, are really getting, well, impenetrable.” Qin Zhantian looked at Jian Wuji and said helplessly.

“Then I’ll take my leave, Alliance Master. We, at the entrance of the Heavenly Demon God Sect, will meet you.” Jian Wuji said.

“Go.” Qin Botian waved his hand and said.

He turned his head to Qin Xiajun and Qin Xialing and said, “You guys go, see him off.”

“Yes, Grandpa.” Qin Xiajun and Qin Xialing, replied in unison.

After walking out of the great hall, Qin Xiajun couldn’t help it, and sighed.

“What are you sighing for? You should be happy!” Qin Xia Ling said.

Qin Xiajun blankly glanced at Qin Xia Ling and said, “Will we be harming grandpa if we do this?”

He had a sudden, ominous feeling.

“What are you worried about? With Sword Wuji around, nothing will happen.” Qin Xia Ling said with a sense of concern.

“Do you really believe him?” Qin Xiajun asked.

“Of course I believe it!” Qin Xiaoling said rightfully.

“Could we have been, by any chance, tricked by him?” Qin Xiajun asked.

“What are you babbling about? Why would he lie to us?” Qin Xia Ling said.

“Maybe, he wants to, take this opportunity to get rid of grandpa, and the Alliance of the Righteous.” Qin Xiajun said.

“How is that possible? Why would he do that?” Qin Xia Ling said.

“Have you forgotten that he said before that he wanted to, stop this war? If Grandpa and the Righteous Alliance Leader, both died, then wouldn’t this war, naturally, end?” Qin Xiajun said.

Qin Xiaoling froze.

Her brother’s speculation, she suddenly thought, made sense.

“What should we do then?” Qin Xiaoling asked.

“We can only, trust him.” Qin Xiajun said.

“But ……”

“Don’t worry, I’ll protect grandpa.” Qin Xiajun said.

He looked at Jian Wuji’s back and said in his heart, “Jian Wuji, you better, don’t let us down.”

Jian Wuji looked up at the sky and said, “The scenery of the Martial Alliance, it’s not bad at all.”

“You’re less there, pretending.” Qin Xiajun said.

“I’m just, having a feeling.” Jian Wuji said.

“Do you really have no, other intentions?” Qin Xiajun asked.

“As I said before, I like to play. How can sitting on that high eunuch’s chair be as relaxing as being on the second floor of the Windfall Tavern, drinking and chatting?” Jian Wuji said.

Now, Qin Xiajun and Qin Xialing, both believed his words.

That’s why they’re, like, helping him along, cheating on Grandpa.

“The reason why I, dare to do this, is because, I believe in my father.” Jian Wuji said.

“I believe that no matter what I do, he will never, ever put me in a desperate situation.”

“!”

Jian Wuji looked at Qin Xiajun and Qin Xialing and said with a smile, “Thank you, for helping me. I won’t forget, your kindness. When this matter is over, you guys must come and play in, the Heavenly Demon God Sect.”

Qin Xia Ling had long ago decided that even if her grandfather, would not let her go, she would still secretly, follow Jian Wu Ji, and go to the Heavenly Demon God Sect.

She would love to go and see the place, called the Windfall Tavern.

“We, then, will take our leave.” Qin Xia Ling said.

“See you later.” Jian Wuji said.

He looked at Qin Xiajun and Qin Xialing, turned around and left, then, exerting his lightness, he transformed into a residual shadow and disappeared from the spot.

“He’s gone.” Qin Xia Ling said as she looked at the direction where Jian Wuji had disappeared.

“Let’s go back too.” Qin Xiajun said.

They stood still and watched Jian Wuji leave.

“I suddenly, miss him.” Qin Xiaoling said.

Jian Wuji didn’t, instead, go straight back to the Heavenly Demon God Sect, but went to the Righteous Alliance.

He was going to inform Bai Zijiang that Qin Botian was also going to attend, this meeting.

As Qin Xia Ling said, his life, it was really busy.

He hoofed it, rushing to the Righteous Alliance, even saving, the time to sleep.

It seemed that he really needed to, well, practice his lightness.

He went to a tavern and found Bithian.

Bilson is eating.
