Chapter 384: Welcome Back, Qin Jian

~8 min read 1,477 words

"Pfft!"

Tang San did not have to eat "dog food" for too long this time, because very soon, the Silver Dragon Spear finished absorbing and slowly flew back into Qin Jian's hand.

Qin Jian's hand sank almost involuntarily, and only after he reacted did he use twice his usual strength to hold onto it.

"How did it become so heavy?" he asked in his heart.

But it was a long time before Na'er answered him: "Absorbed... too much... a bit stuffed... stuffed full... I need time... to digest... now... must... sleep..."

Then there was no more sound; it looked like she really had eaten until she was stuffed...

Qin Jian: "......"

"How is it? The Spirit power you wanted should be enough, right?"

Hu Liena's voice rang out beside him.

Qin Jian nodded: "Enough, enough, it's even overflowing..."

He retracted the Silver Dragon Spear into his body, and immediately felt that even his soul bone had become three parts heavier.

"Next, according to our observations just now, we should leave through that exit high above."

This high-altitude exit, which would have been very difficult for Tang San to leave through, had become much simpler now that Qin Jian had joined.

The two of them, one using Spirit Teleportation and the other using Blue Silver Grass plus the Flying God Claw, left the Hell Road quite easily.

It was just that at the moment they rushed out, the consciousness of all three was once again shattered by an intense mental shock, and they fell into a brief state of unconsciousness.

It is unknown how much time passed before the three of them woke up one after another.

Hu Liena was the last to wake up, so the first thing she saw were the backs of Qin Jian and Tang San, who seemed to be whispering about something; Qin Jian even handed a piece of paper to Tang San, looking for all the world like they were engaged in a shady deal.

"What are you two talking about?" she asked curiously.

It was meant to be just a casual question, but Tang San quickly put the paper away.

The movement was so fast that Hu Liena even thought she had seen things, and that there hadn't actually been any paper at all?

"Nothing, we were just chatting," Qin Jian immediately turned back to say.

Hu Liena revealed a suspicious look.

Originally leaning against the tree roots, she stood up slowly, walked to Qin Jian's side, and wrapped her hands around his arm with practiced ease: "Qin Jian, with the relationship between us, is there still anything we need to hide from each other?"

Qin Jian wiped sweat from his brow: "This... there really isn't anything to say, it's about our Shrek Academy."

He told a lie for once; it wasn't that he didn't trust Hu Liena, but that he didn't trust Bibi Dong behind her, because this was a matter of stance.

The journey to Slaughter City had ended, and the preparations that needed to be made next were also indispensable...

Hu Liena still felt something was a bit strange, but Qin Jian was tight-lipped, and she had no way to force it.

"Qin Jian, since we have already obtained the Domain we wanted, I will be leaving first," Tang San said.

Qin Jian nodded: "Take care."

Tang San gave a grunt of acknowledgement, then left along the small path; the Killing Aura on his body was very heavy, and he would certainly need to find a way to resolve it next.

But it was fine, his old man and his aunt were both waiting for him...

Should I go take a look at the graduation ceremony a year from now? Hmm... I'll run into Qian Renxue, right?

"The person is already far away, what are you still looking at?"

Once Tang San left, Hu Liena clearly became much more active.

She threw herself directly onto Qin Jian, hugging his neck and pouting coquettishly: "Hurry and tell me, what were you two talking about just now?"

Qin Jian tapped her head and said: "Nothing important, why are you so concerned?"

"Speaking of which, don't you feel that after coming out, not only was the Killing God Domain born, but the killing intent on your body seems a bit uncontrollable?" Qin Jian suddenly said.

Changing the subject by the way...

Sure enough, Hu Liena stopped pestering him about the previous matter: "Mm, I felt it too, the killing intent has a feeling of being restless and out of control, just like when we killed too many people at once back in Slaughter City..."

The two pairs of eyes met silently, and then they both saw the same meaning in each other's eyes; this kind of radiance was very familiar to them both...

Qin Jian suddenly picked up Hu Liena and rushed out: "Let's go, find a small town tavern to rest for a few days..."

After all, he didn't know if Tang San's father was still nearby, and he didn't want to put on a live show.

Seven days later, Qin Jian and Hu Liena, having thoroughly entered a "sage mode," finally walked out of the small town with their expressions back to normal.

"This Killing God Domain actually suits my martial soul quite well, the same slaughter, and what's more interesting is..."

Qin Jian looked at his hand and said: "The Killing God Domain is composed of one's own killing intent; within this domain, a space identical to my martial soul has been formed. In other words, for me, there is no difference between the range of the Killing God Domain and the location of my martial soul."

"You mean..."

Hu Liena didn't understand what he was saying at all.

Qin Jian smiled and said: "I mean... within my domain, I can appear at any position at any time."

"What?!"

Hu Liena covered her lips and exclaimed: "Just like how you can Teleport to the side of your martial soul, you can now Teleport at will within the domain?"

Qin Jian nodded and said: "Theoretically speaking, since the killing intent is already on my body, then I... can naturally pull myself to appear anywhere I am."

Hu Liena's eyes turned into spirals.

"Alright, it's time for us to go back..."

Seeing that she didn't seem to have any epiphany, Qin Jian took her soft hand: "When we entered the Hell Road, your teacher should have known, so there might be people waiting to greet us at the exit. However, I took you and slipped away a bit too fast at the time, so they didn't seem to have noticed..."

"Swish! Swish!"

The two returned to the vicinity of the previous exit, and sure enough, Yue Guan and Gui Mei descended from the sky very quickly.

"Where did you go?"

Yue Guan's shrill, eerie voice rang out: "We merely avoided a Killing God, but when we turned back, we couldn't find the two of you."

Qin Jian suddenly understood.

So it wasn't that he had slipped away fast, but that these two fellows had sensed Tang Hao's aura and slipped away fast...

"Chrysanthemum Elder, Ghost Elder, we couldn't control our killing intent, so we found a way to resolve it ourselves." Seeing that Qin Jian couldn't be bothered to speak, Hu Liena explained.

Yue Guan and Gui Mei's eyes couldn't help but fall on her hands, which were skillfully holding Qin Jian's arm, and then they exchanged a glance, both seeing a sense of peculiarity in each other's eyes.

Are they really together? Then what about the Pope?

Master and disciple... things are getting interesting...

With the two Elders Yue Guan and Gui Mei present, it didn't even take them a day to return to the Spirit Hall; the flight ability of a Title Douluo is indeed very useful, no wonder Bibi Dong would dispatch the two of them to pick people up.

Returning to Wuhun City once again, both Qin Jian and Hu Liena felt a bit dazed; they hadn't seen such an atmosphere of the mortal world for three years.

Passing through the streets of the Spirit Hall and stepping onto the long stairs of the Pope Palace, Qin Jian and Hu Liena slowly approached the plaza in front of the hall.

Finally, the two stood once again upon this White Jade Plaza.

"Greetings, Commander!"

The Guard Team on both sides knelt on one knee simultaneously, saluting in unison.

But Qin Jian did not respond, because in front of the Pope Palace ahead, a woman holding a Scepter slowly turned around.

The morning sun spilled onto her flawless face, adding a touch of softness to her.

She smiled slightly, captivating all living beings.

"Welcome back... Nana... and..."

"Qin Jian..."

Forgot the 12 o'clock update, this stockpile is being used up too fast, I'm stunned...
