Chapter 1235
Tian Tian looked at him in surprise.
Then, she shook her head and explained,
"It has nothing to do with you.
I just ate something bad recently, that's why I'm like this.
You don't need to blame yourself."
"Is that so?"
Qin Kun gave Tian Tian a suspicious glance.
The calmer Tian Tian acted, the more suspicious Qin Kun became.
He took out a medicinal pill from his storage ring and fed it to Tian Tian.
"Thank you." After Tian Tian swallowed the pill, her pale complexion finally improved a little.
Qin Kun stuffed the pill bottle into his storage ring and said softly, "You shouldn't have played the hero.
If something happened to you, your father and grandmother would surely be very sad."
Hearing this, Tian Tian lowered her eyes.
She murmured, "I really don't want to owe you."
"Heh, what do you owe me?"
"I…"
Tian Tian opened her mouth to speak, but found she had no idea what to say.
She and Qin Kun had met by chance; they hadn't even known each other for a month — how could they talk about saving each other's lives?
Qin Kun gazed at her downcast expression, a flicker in his eyes.
He suddenly took hold of her cold palm and said gently,
"Silly Miss, you meant well.
But some kindness can never be repaid.
Since you feel you owe me too much, you must repay me when you get the chance in the future."
After saying that, he picked Tian Tian up.
"Hey!
Put my sister down!"
Ximen Wudi saw Tian Tian being carried off by a strange man, got a fright, drew his sword, and gave chase.
"Stinky old man, don't you dare run!"
The black-robed man roared furiously, raised his sword, and charged toward Ximen Wudi.
"Tian'er, bear with it a moment, I'll take you home right away."
"Mm." Tian Tian responded.
Qin Kun tapped his toe lightly, his figure swiftly darting into the distance.
When he reached a secluded spot, he finally set Tian Tian down on the ground.
"How are you?"
Qin Kun asked, frowning.
"I'm fine." Tian Tian shook her head.
She really wasn't injured — it was just that the intense exertion earlier had caused her internal organs to be affected, leaving her a bit uncomfortable, that's all.
Qin Kun carefully observed her breathing, confirmed she really wasn't hurt, and only then breathed a sigh of relief,
"You still haven't told me your name."
"Tian Tian."
Qin Kun was slightly stunned,
"So your name is Tian Tian."
He stared at Tian Tian's beautiful, delicate little face and continued, "What happened today, thanks to you.
Don't worry, I will definitely protect you."
"You… you protect me?
What are you going to protect me with?"
Tian Tian said disdainfully,
"Just these skinny arms and skinny legs of yours?"
Qin Kun: "…"
He rubbed his nose and gave a dry laugh,
"Actually, I came out on this training trip and specially learned artifact-refining arts.
My martial soul is a precious sword."
Saying so, he produced the precious sword.
"Oh? The material of this sword is pretty ordinary, isn't it.
It's actually just common iron."
Tian Tian pouted and said carelessly, "A weapon of your grade probably can't even compare to my Jade Hairpin."
"Huh?"
Hearing her say that, Qin Kun also noticed this problem.
His precious sword was a common weapon, and indeed it was no match for Tian Tian's precious sword.
