Chapter 0384 – A Paper Pact – Absolute Return

Zhao Chunpei recently, the mood is extraordinarily comfortable.

Not only did he have a, the best vacation of his life, but he was also a, good son-in-law.

He had, really, nothing more to ask for.

It’s all thanks to, well, the man in front of me.

“Boss Zhao, how have you been?”

He was actually able to, with the Demon Sect’s Young Sect Master, talk so cordially, which made him feel, incomparably honored.

“Young Sect Master, why, are you here so early?” Zhao Chunpei asked.

“I have something I want to discuss with you.” Jian Wuji said.

“Please come in, please come in.” Zhao Chunpei welcomed Jian Wuji, into the tavern.

Jian Wuji looked around and realized that in the tavern, everything was as usual.

“Still, this place is the most comfortable.” Jian Wuji lamented.

“Young Sect Master, you flatter me.” Zhao Chunpei said modestly.

Jian Wuji walked to the second floor and took a seat by the window.

“Boss Zhao, you sit down too.”

Zhao Chunpei, somewhat nervously, took a seat opposite Jian Wuji.

“Young Sect Master, if you have something to say, just say it.”

From his bosom, Jian Wuji pulled out a piece of paper and handed it to Zhao Chunpei.

“I’d like to charter your tavern on this day, is that okay?”

Written on the paper, a date.

“Of course.” Zhao Chunpei agreed without hesitation.

Jian Wuji was, however, his savior! Not to mention wrapping it up for a day, even if he wrapped it up for a month, he would still be willing.

“What kind of honored guest is it that’s coming?” Zhao Chunpei asked curiously.

Previously, when those people came, they all, appeared suddenly, without warning. Whether it was the Heavenly Devil, or the Eight Great Devil Sovereigns, it was all the same. This time, just what kind of person, actually needed, to make a reservation in advance, and also pack, the entire tavern?

“Our Demon Cult, is going to hold an, important meeting, here. I recommended your tavern to them, saying that this is, the best place.” Jian Wuji said.

“Thank you, Young Preceptor.” Zhao Chunpei said gratefully.

He thought that Sword Wuji was planning, to arrange the meeting of the Demon Sect, in his tavern, so that he could, take this opportunity, to publicize, his tavern, and increase its popularity.

“You must, prepare, the best wine and food. As to who the guests are, I cannot, at this time, tell you. Moreover, this matter, you must also keep it a secret and not tell anyone until the meeting begins.” Jian Wuji admonished.

“Don’t worry, I will definitely, keep my mouth shut.” Zhao Chunpei patted his chest and assured.

He was secretly delighted.

“I finally have a chance to, finally, repay the Young Sect Master’s favor.”

He looked at the back wall of the tavern with confidence in his heart.

“I am, however, the one who has received even the Bishop!”

What’s more, he had also received, the Eight Great Demon Sovereigns, as well as the Demon Monarch and the Yellow Springs Hall Master.

“Entertaining honored guests, this kind of thing, I’m the best at it. Young Sect Master, you can rest assured!” Zhao Chunpei said confidently.

“Then, please, Boss Zhao.” Jian Wuji said.

In fact, Jian Wuji would love to, like before, suddenly bring people and come to the tavern.

He even thought about having the Martial Arts Alliance, from the crowd, pass through, and then, walk to the second floor, and drink and chat with the Heavenly Demon, and the Righteous Alliance.

He wanted to show, Zhao Chunpei, their truest side.

He knew that Zhao Chunpei would be able, for sure, to accept them.

However, he eventually, gave up on the idea.

Because he knew that if he did, do that, the guards, would, for sure, be difficult.

“I’ll bring my brother, over for dinner in a little while.” Jian Wuji said.

“Okay, I’ll go now, and prepare your, favorite dishes.” Zhao Chunpei said.

Jian Wuji walked out of the tavern, came across the street, and said to a, bucket hat wearing, middle aged man, “Are you waiting for me?”

The middle-aged man took off his bucket hat and said, “You actually, recognized me?”

He turned out to be, of the Patriarch’s Great Hall, the Chief Chef – Chef Wang!

It seems that Sima Ming, in order to, make sure that this talk, is foolproof, that’s why he, sent Chef Wang, here, to check.

After all, the guests this time, however, were, the Martial Arts Alliance and the Alliance of the Righteous Path.

“I’ve come to see, here, if there’s anything, that needs help.” Chef Wang said.

Despite what he says, in reality, he’s here to, well, check it out.

He wants to check that the food here, is up to scratch, the sanitary conditions, are up to standard.

“You don’t need to care about me, just do your own thing.” Jian Wuji said.

“Is this, really good?” Chef Wang was a bit hesitant.

He knew that the location of this meeting was chosen by Jian Wuji.

“I don’t have a problem with that. It’s just that this tavern, I’m afraid, won’t be able to fit into your eyes, right?” Jian Wuji said.

“What do you mean?” Chef Wang looked at Jian Wuji in puzzlement.

“You are, ah, Chef Wang! What kind of delicacies have you not eaten? You would look down on, this, humble tavern?” Jian Wuji said.

Chef Wang also had to admit that this tavern was, indeed, somewhat humble.

“Why did you, uh, choose this place?” Chef Wang asked.

Jian Wuji had many reasons, but he only said one, the one that would most convince Chef Wang, the most.

“Because, the food here, is delicious.” Jian Wuji said.

Chef Wang nodded and said, “That reason, is enough.”

“Then I’ll leave first.” Jian Wuji said.

He watched Chef Wang, walk into the Windfall Tavern, and then, turned to leave.

,!

He returned to the Demon Sect and found his brother, Jian Wu Yang.

Jian Wuyang was in his office, dealing with, matters related to this talk.

“What brings you here?” Jian Wuyang asked.

“I came to see you.” Jian Wuji said.

“I’m busy, you’re fine, just go.” Jian Wuyang said.

Though he said this, his face, however, showed, a hint of a smile.

“Let’s go eat together, and by the way, take a look, at the venue for the talks.” Jian Wuji said.

“I’m busy.” Jian Wuyang said.

“You’re not, by any chance, talking on paper, are you? You haven’t even seen the site, how do you know, if the venue for the talks, is suitable? You should, personally go and take a look, and then, tell Boss Zhao, which areas, need to be improved.” Jian Wu Ji said.

Jian Wuyang, helplessly, stood up.

The two walked side by side, on their way to the village of Magha.

“You will also be attending, this talk, right?” Jian Wuji asked.

“Of course it will.” Jian Wuyang said.

“You don’t, by any chance, want me to participate, do you?”

“How? I would also like to, announce to everyone that you have, defeated me and become, the Demon Sect’s Young Sect Master.” Sword Wuji said with a smile.

He was worried that Jian Wu Yang would, because of his failure last time, refuse to participate, in the talks this time.

However, Jian Wuyang acted frankly.

“If I don’t go, people will say that I’m afraid of losing face, that’s why, I don’t dare to go. I don’t want to, be looked down upon.” Jian Wuyang said.

Jian Wuji was grateful that Jian Wuyang was able to, put aside the stigma in his heart and agreed to participate, in this talk.

“I really shouldn’t have, let you come. When others see you, they will surely say, ‘How could the Demon Sect’s Young Lord, be, so mediocre?’ They would definitely say, ‘How could the Devil Sect, choose him, to be the Young Sect Master?'” Jian Wuji said with a smile.

“You brat, don’t be there, talking smack.” Jian Wuyang said.

“This time, I’m going to invite the Martial Arts Alliance’s, Qin family siblings, over as well. I’m going to show them that we, the two brothers, are the, the best.” Jian Wu Ji said.

“You invited them, to do what?” Jian Wuyang asked.

“Showing off, of course! I’m going to show them that I’m surrounded by, what kind of people I am.” Jian Wuji said rightfully.

“You are really, childish.” Jian Wuyang said.

The two walked and chatted.

“You recently, do you still dream?” Jian Wuji suddenly asked.

“What dream?” Jian Wuyang asked.

“Your dream of becoming, the Demon Sect’s Young Lord.” Jian Wuji said.

Jian Wuyang froze for a moment, he hadn’t, as of late, seemed to, really, have, that dream again.

“I do it every day.” Jian Wuyang said.

He suddenly realized that he hadn’t, in a long time, had that dream.

He had, surprisingly, forgotten about it.

He felt, suddenly, empty inside.

“I will, even if I, die, continue to have that dream.” Jian Wuyang said.

“You are truly, obsessed.” Jian Wuji said.

“I will, even if I, go to hell, continue to have that dream.” Jian Wuyang said.

He laughed to himself as he finished.

Jian Wuji knew that Jian Wuyang had, already, put it down.

“Maybe, your dream, will come true? Things are unpredictable, who knows, what will happen in the future?” Jian Wuji said.

Jian Wuyang stopped and looked at Jian Wuji, saying, “You’d better, stop dreaming!”

He would occasionally think of the scene where Jian Wuji would, pass on the position of, the Demon Sect Master, to him.

As his understanding of Sword Wuji, grew deeper and deeper, the scene, became, more and more clear.

“Why are you, stopping me from dreaming?” Jian Wuyang asked.

He deliberately made a stern face and looked at Jian Wuji.

He must, let Jian Wuji understand that he was determined.

“What you’ve been given, you should, cherish. I will never, allow you, to give it up.” Jian Wuyang said.

“I know, I won’t, give up.” Jian Wuji said.

“How could I be, so stupid, to give up something so good, to you?”
