Chapter 84: Eight Hours... Simply a Beast

~8 min read 1,473 words

【Ding, Zhong Lingqing's favorability: 30!】

【Return multiplier: 300!】

It seems that because of Jiang Xun's words just now, Zhong Lingqing's favorability toward him has increased.

"Lin, Qing, Wan..."

After Tu Wan left, Jiang Xun looked at Lin Qingwan with a murderous expression.

"I... you... kill me or carve me up! Do as you please!"

Lin Qingwan hesitated for a moment, glanced at Zhong Lingqing, then straightened her back and put her hands on her hips.

The worst that could happen is death!

Who's afraid of whom! When people die, they just... face the sky!

"Left Protector, you go back to Qingyu Peak to report first; leave this little girl to me."

Jiang Xun said as he looked at Zhong Lingqing.

"Alright."

Zhong Lingqing did not hesitate, nodded, pushed Lin Qingwan toward Jiang Xun, and then left using Wind Control.

Jiang Xun then walked in the direction of the Fairy Pavilion.

He did not deliberately grab Lin Qingwan, and Lin Qingwan followed behind him quite sensibly.

After all, she knew that even if she wanted to run, she couldn't.

It was better to suffer less.

Arriving at the Fairy Pavilion, Mother Zhao opened a premium room for them.

After entering the room, Jiang Xun locked the door and set up a Soundproof Barrier.

Sitting on a chair, he looked at Lin Qingwan: "You're quite loyal, aren't you? I gave you Treasure Grade items, I gave you a Youth-Preserving Pill, and you still betrayed me? Could it be that the Baihua Sect gives you better things than I do?"

"It's not that." Lin Qingwan shook her head: "I swore that I would be loyal to the Sect Master forever... If I knew and didn't report it, I would die..."

"Oh? Then did you never think that betraying me would also lead to death?" Jiang Xun's eyes narrowed as he looked at Lin Qingwan.

"At the very least, I lived a few more days." Lin Qingwan curled her lips.

Jiang Xun was stunned at the sight; this little girl had previously looked soft and weak, someone who came when called and left when waved away, looking like a good girl in every way.

He hadn't expected her actual personality to be quite tough; she acted very well, truly a good seedling for a spy.

It made sense; to be a good spy and obtain more information, she was even willing to climb into an old man's bed, and it was her first time—that required a lot of courage and determination.

There really is no one else like her when it comes to being a spy.

"Grandmaster, just do it. If I betrayed you and you kill me, I accept it."

Seeing that Jiang Xun didn't speak, Lin Qingwan walked forward a few steps, closed her eyes, and took on the appearance of waiting for death.

"Are you still calling me Grandmaster at a time like this?"

"In my heart, I acknowledge you as this Grandmaster..." Lin Qingwan nodded, opened her eyes, and looked at Jiang Xun: "You were very good to me, you even gave me those treasures, and that aspect..." Lin Qingwan blushed: "That aspect is indeed very powerful, I like it very much."

After all, she had spent some years in the Lingerie-Sect, so she wasn't that shy about such matters.

"If it weren't for the fact that I made a Dao Oath, I wouldn't have betrayed you."

Hearing this, Jiang Xun smiled: "Alright, then swear now that you will only be loyal to me alone, and I will spare your life."

Lin Qingwan was stunned upon hearing this, processed it for a moment, and then said: "Grandmaster, aren't you still asking me to die?"

"How so?" Jiang Xun frowned.

"I still have the oath of loyalty to the Sect Master on me. If I swear to be loyal only to you now, the two Dao Oaths will conflict. Wouldn't I die even more miserably?"

Lin Qingwan said with a bitter smile.

"Tomorrow I will take you to see Ning Yu, and you two can cancel this Dao Oath in person and swear loyalty to me again."

Jiang Xun nodded; what Lin Qingwan said did indeed make sense.

As for the Dao Oath, as long as the party swearing and the party being sworn to are both present and agree, it can be dissolved.

"... Are you and the Sect Master, by any chance, very close?" Hearing Jiang Xun's form of address, Lin Qingwan couldn't help but ask.

"Don't you worry about that. Before you swear, I want to collect some interest first!"

Jiang Xun threw away his cane, stood up, grabbed Lin Qingwan by the waist, hoisted her onto his shoulder, and then threw her onto the bed.

"No... don't!"

Seeing Jiang Xun's posture, Lin Qingwan felt that something was wrong, and before Jiang Xun could do anything, her whole body had already gone soft with fear.

The record of him and Tu Qing for four hours was still fresh in Lin Qingwan's mind!

If even Tu Qing couldn't handle it, how could she?

But Jiang Xun didn't care; the more she looked like this in fear, the more excited Jiang Xun became!

——————

Early the next morning, Jiang Xun carried Lin Qingwan out of the Fairy Pavilion.

Why carry her?

One day and one night, eight hours.

Lin Qingwan finally knew the terror of this Hehuan Young Master.

Eight hours had passed, and her whole body was numb. Let alone standing up on those trembling legs that felt like they had been struck by lightning, she didn't even have the strength to lift her eyelids.

Carrying Lin Qingwan, Jiang Xun soon returned to his small cabin, only to see Yin Ningyu and Hua Bairui both sitting outside Hua Bairui's cabin.

The two had bought themselves two lounge chairs, placed a small tea table in between, and were enjoying tea quite comfortably.

"Yo, whose little beauty have you carried back this time?"

Seeing Jiang Xun carrying someone on his shoulder, Yin Ningyu said sarcastically.

"Yours." Jiang Xun turned around, letting Yin Ningyu get a look at Lin Qingwan.

Yin Ningyu could not help but raise an eyebrow at the sight; what... what happened here? How did things get tossed about like this?

She did not look injured, her internal energy was not damaged, and the sides of her nose were red, her legs seemed to be shaking, and there was still faint breathing.

Could this be what is called being a living person who is barely alive?

"After she wakes up, you will face her and dissolve the Dao Oath of allegiance she previously swore to you; after that, she must swear allegiance to me."

Jiang Xun then turned around and said to Yin Ningyu.

"Oh." Yin Ningyu nodded: "Right, let me tell you, I will be staying here with Bairui from now on."

"Can you fit? Or would you rather stay on my side?" Jiang Xun laughed.

"Who wants to live with you!" Yin Ningyu widened her eyes upon hearing this, turned her head away, and said with a blushing face.

Jiang Xun smiled at the sight and said nothing more, carrying Lin Qingwan back to the room and tossing her onto the bed to let her get some good rest.

"You animal, you are simply an animal."

Looking at Lin Qingwan, who was lying on the bed and barely breathing, Jun Tianling said with some horror.

After Jiang Xun pushed Lin Qingwan down last night, Jun Tianling immediately cut off contact with the outside world; she had not expected that every time she checked in during the interval, Jiang Xun and Lin Qingwan were still at it.

She had expected even less that they would toss about for eight hours.

Jun Tianling could only use the word "animal" to describe Jiang Xun.

"You should learn more; you might find it useful in the future."

Jiang Xun laughed.

"Go to hell!"

Jun Tianling cursed outright; this was truly naked teasing.

Jiang Xun did not speak either, going to pour himself some water and preparing to take a bath.

When Jiang Xun was soaking in the bathtub, Jun Tianling spoke again: "Are we going to Nanwu next?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xun recalled what Zhong Lingqing had said before.

When Tang Ying left the Baihua Sect, she had headed in the direction of Nanwu.

"Not going, I have other things to do; we'll talk after I'm done."

Jiang Xun shook his head and laughed.

"What things?"

Jun Tianling was puzzled; she had been there the whole time, and logically speaking, there should be nothing left to do.

"My Master has come out of seclusion; I need to wait for her to break through to the Integration Realm, and then we will handle a major matter together."

An expectant expression appeared on Jiang Xun's face.
