    Chapter Index

    What are you talking about? Young Master of the Church? When did I become your devil? You must have had too much to drink, and in front of the Heavenly Devil and the Martial Alliance.

    Jin broke the sky and asked Zhao Chunpei again:

    “Are you a devil of a young preceptor?”

    “How dare I …… how dare I ……”

    Zhao Chunpei was at a loss as to what to do.

    “Go ahead, I want to hear what’s in your heart. Don’t worry, I won’t blame you, just say it.”

    Even though Jin Boutian said so, Zhao Chunpei still felt a great deal of pressure.

    He didn’t know what to do, and could only look at Jian Wuji as if for help.

    Jian Wuji cast an encouraging glance at him, as if to say, Don’t be afraid, I’m here.

    This insignificant look gave Zhao Chunpei great courage. He decided to say what he had always wanted to say, especially what he wanted to say to the Heavenly Demon Sword Wu Chen. He knew that this might be his only chance.

    “I ……”

    He took a deep breath and slowly spoke. Silence fell around him, and everyone gazed at him, waiting for what he would say.

    ‘My heart! Stop beating!’

    Jin Broken Sky said with a smile:

    “Just think of me as the old man I met this morning, didn’t you make a good point then?”

    It’s not just a good thing to say, it’s a good thing to call him out on it.

    Zhao Chunpei once again took a deep breath and gathered his courage to say. In fact, the person he really wanted to say these words to was the Heavenly Demon Sword Wu Chen. He knew that if he didn’t say it now, he wouldn’t have a chance later.

    “The Young Sect Master has opened a branch of the Yellow Springs Pavilion across from our restaurant, and he said that if we encounter any injustice, we should go there to complain. We, the commoners, have been oppressed by those so-called righteous martial arts paths all our lives, and no one has ever said a word for us. It was the Young Sect Master who showed us the Yellow Springs Pavilion and gave us the opportunity to speak up for ourselves. We are now familiar with the people of the Yellow Springs Pavilion and often bring them food.”

    He spoke in a voice that was shaky but full of sincerity.

    “The Young Preceptor often came to my tavern for a drink, and he said to me, ‘My way of magic is not to fight and kill.'”

    It was the first time the crowd downstairs had heard those words, and they looked at each other as if they couldn’t believe their ears. What? No fighting and killing? Is this still the Devil Sect?

    “Since then, those so-called ‘martial arts righteousness’ who get drunk and make trouble and use us commoners like cattle and horses have never appeared again. The number of accidental deaths and disappearances has also become less and less. I don’t know what is the Devil’s Way, what is the Righteous Way, and what is the Evil Way.”

    Zhao Chunpei closed his eyes as he spoke. He could only rely on his gratitude towards Jian Wuji to overcome his inner fear and continue speaking.

    “All I know is that if I had to choose between all the ‘ways’ in this world, I would choose the Young Sect Master’s ‘Devil’s Way’ without hesitation. Although I don’t know what it is, I believe in him. I believe that the entire Ma Clan Village will support him. Because, when those so-called ‘righteous people’ are all towering over us and ignoring us, it is only the Young Sect Master, who has always guarded us.”

    Since he had already spoken, Zhao Chunpei decided to say all the words he had buried in his heart.

    “I hope that the Young Prelate will not do those dangerous things in the future. I know that everything he does is for the sake of others, for the sake of this world. But I really don’t want him to work too hard, too much.”

    After saying these words, Zhao Chunpei lowered his head as if he was deflated.

    “I’m sorry for talking too much, please forgive me.”

    He was trembling and his heart was filled with fear. He didn’t know what all he had just said, and only felt fearful afterward. Had he been too licentious?

    Jian Wuji walked over to him and gently patted his shoulder, comforting him:

    “Thank you, boss. What other boss in the world would speak up for me on an occasion like this, like you?”

    “I should be the one to thank you. In this world, which other Young Sect Master would be like you and stand up for a tavern owner? For the sake of the Young Sect Master, I would be willing to die here even if I had to.”

    Jian Wudu, Jin Zhantian and Bai Zijiang didn’t say anything as they quietly looked at Zhao Chunpei, feeling the sincerity and fervor in his eyes. Jian Wuyang, Bi Si’an, Jin Xiajun, Jin Xialing, and those various experts from the righteous and evil paths downstairs were also silent.

    Some people understood their feelings for each other, while others couldn’t understand it at all. Some think it’s an act, while others find it laughable to the core.

    Right at this moment, Jian Wuchen suddenly picked up the wine pot and slowly poured the wine into the wine cup in front of him.

    “Come, have a drink with me.”

    Zhao Chunpei was instantly scared out of his wits.

    “How dare I …… how dare I ……”

    Although he was scared in his heart, he still obediently walked to Jian Wuchen and received the wine cup with both hands.

    “Drink this and pour me another.”

    After Zhao Chunpei finished his drink, his hands trembled as he tried to pour wine for Jian Wuchen. However, his hands were shaking too much and the wine spilled out, looking to drip onto the table.

    Just then, an invisible force held the spilled drinks and returned them to the glass. Not a single drop was wasted.

    Only then did Zhao Chunpei have the chance to raise his head and meet Jian Wuchen on all fours.

    Although it was only a brief moment, the eyes full of majesty were deeply imprinted in his mind for eternity.

    Just then, another voice rang out.

    “Have a drink with me too.”

    To everyone’s surprise, the person who spoke was actually Jin Botian. Sword Wuji’s genuine sincerity had impressed this iron-faced and selfless martial arts ally.

    “Although I still don’t understand what exactly the ‘magic path’ you’re talking about is, I believe that everything you said today is true.”

    Jin Botian personally poured a glass of wine for Zhao Chunpei.

    Baek Zi Jiang joined them.

    He didn’t say anything, just silently poured a glass of wine for Zhao Chunpei, then raised his own glass and gently clinked it with him.

    The crisp clinking of glasses, which stood out in the silence of the room, seemed to signal that the tension was about to dissipate.

    Seeing this, Jian Wuji said with a smile:

    “Father, Alliance Master, let’s have a drink as well.”

    Jian Wudi and the two alliance masters nodded, and Jian Wuji then led the three young men and found a seat in the corner.

    “Boss, a jug of wine first!”

    “Okay, right away!”

    Zhao Chunpei immediately walked over with a wine jug.

    Just as the crowd was about to raise their glasses and get to know each other, the unexpected happened.

    A plate suddenly fell from the sky and landed firmly in front of Bithan.

    It was sautéed bok choy with shiitake mushrooms, exactly one of Bithan’s favorite dishes.

    Immediately afterward, Bai Zijiang’s voice came from behind him:

    “Sian’s favorite is shiitake mushrooms, eat more.”

    Bithan’s eyes widened in surprise, this was the first time he had seen his master lose his temper like this since he had known him.

    Immediately after that, the roast duck on Jin Botian’s table couldn’t sit still.

    It flew in front of the Jin Xia army under Jin Botian’s control.

    “Xia Jun, this is your favorite roast duck, don’t just drink, eat some food.”

    In the end, even the ordinary-looking table could not hold back its excitement and joined the “food fight”.

    The braised pork on Jian Wudu’s table flew straight to Jian Wuji.

    “I don’t like red meat, huh?” Jian Wuji said in mock disgust.

    “This is something I don’t like to eat.” Jian Wu Chen said indifferently.

    Jian Wuji looked at his father’s back as if he saw the Heavenly Demon Soul smiling at him.

    “Heroes have the same taste! It seems that I have exactly the same tastes as you, father! However, it’s still your father’s braised pork that tastes the best!”

    “Nonsense! It’s clearly the ally’s cooking that’s the best!” The Jin Xia army loudly retorted.

    “You’re all wrong! It’s still Master’s cooking that’s the best!” Bi Sian also joined the battle without smoke.

    See this group of “old children” childish behavior, Jin Xia Ling can not help but laugh out. Men are teenagers until they die. If you want to understand men, go and see those children. These men who are responsible for the safety and security of the world will even argue over this kind of thing.

    “What are you laughing at?” Jian Wuji asked.

    Jin Xialing raised her glass and smiled:

    “I just think that you guys are so cute. Come on, let’s toast!”
