Lying on the bed, Ye Chen kept thinking about the conversation just now in his mind.
Grandpa clearly knew about the Sword Spirit and the Tianjue Immortal Sword Art, but why did he never talk about it even when he asked for more details?
There is also the guardian of the first sword spirit. Who is he and what is his relationship with his grandfather? He has not been able to get a definite answer to these.
Tossing and turning, Ye Chen couldn't sleep all night. There were too many things that happened recently, and they were too weird.
"Forget it, let's get some sleep first!"
In the middle of the night, Ye Chen made up his mind, not thinking about it so much, and just taking one step at a time.
Because he was very tired, he slept very soundly this night, and the nightmares no longer accompanied him.
Early the next morning, Ye Chen opened his eyes and saw a black shadow passing by outside the window. He was about to get up and chase after it, but when he got to the balcony, he found no one there again.
"Oops, Qing'er!"
Suddenly, Ye Chen felt something bad and hurriedly ran to Lin Qing's room next door.
"What's wrong? Look how anxious you are!"
Seeing Ye Chen running to her room, Lin Qing subconsciously curled up into a ball, holding her shoulders with her hands, as if guarding against wolves.
"Uh... you're fine!"
Ye Chen didn't think too much when he saw this, he just breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and said: "I just saw a black shadow, I thought..."
"Oh? Are you worried about me?"
Lin Qing immediately became happy when she heard this. She jumped up from the bed and jumped directly into Ye Chen's arms. She hooked her arms around his neck and hung him upside down in his arms.
"By the way, I may be leaving today. Do you want to stay here to study, or..."
Ye Chen avoided the topic and instead thought of the task his grandfather had given him last night. He looked hesitant and couldn't help but ask.
"Oh? You want to leave?"
After hearing what Ye Chen said, Lin Qing was shocked and hurriedly broke away from his arms and landed on her feet.
"Yes, my grandpa asked me to stop going to school and go to another place!"
Ye Chen nodded and conveyed his grandfather's intention truthfully. As for the matter of the third sword spirit, he still chose to conceal it.
"That……"
Lin Qing hesitated immediately after hearing this, and then suddenly smiled and said: "No matter what, I will follow you!"
"Uh... are you really sure? Are you going to disobey your master's order?"
Upon hearing Lin Qing's words, Ye Chen couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Lin Qing smiled and nodded, and replied: "Didn't I disobey Master and Shushan a long time ago? From the moment I chose to be with you, I have been yours. Do you want to abandon me now?"
Don’t I care?”
As she spoke, there seemed to be a lustful light in the corners of her eyes, and she couldn't help but feel a little dazed in her heart when she thought about Senior Shushan.
"Okay then, let's leave together!"
Ye Chen nodded, but he was thinking to himself, yes, he and Lin Qing had already been in love for life, and he had already betrayed Shushan by being with her. If he was so hesitant, wouldn't he have hurt her?
heart of?
Thinking that Ye Chen didn't say anything more, he looked around and saw that there seemed to be nothing worth taking away, so he smiled at Lin Qing and said, "Then let's go!"
"Um!"
Lin Qing blinked her eyes, the moisture in her eyes was still there, and her eyelashes were stained with moisture, making them look even more charming.
Looking at Lin Qing's black and white eyes, Ye Chen subconsciously reached out and wiped his face. Although the tears did not flow out, he felt a moist and tender feeling.
As a cultivator, Lin Qing had tender and smooth skin all over her body. Although Ye Chen had touched it more than once, the feeling at this time was still so obvious.
"Qing'er, shall we get married?"
Suddenly, Ye Chen had a strong thought and couldn't help but ask.
"ah?"
Lin Qing was shocked when she heard it. Getting married? That was no joke. Doesn't getting married require orders from parents and the words of a matchmaker?
But thinking about it, she seems to have realized that those rigid rules can only be placed in the past. Times have changed now, so why should we care about so many?
"What's wrong? Does it feel too abrupt? If not, let's drop this matter for now!"
Seeing that Lin Qing didn't agree, Ye Chen suddenly felt a little disappointed, but he didn't give up. If it didn't work the first time, he would do it a second time. He would succeed one time.
Naturally, at the same time, cultivating feelings is still more important.
At this time, he had already designated Lin Qing as his wife. If Lin Qing never agreed to his proposal, then he could wait forever.
However, he did not say this out loud, he just smiled and said: "Let's leave here first and then talk about it!"
"Um!"
Lin Qing still didn't change her words, looking hesitant, but seeing Ye Chen change the topic, she had no choice but to nod.
"Let's go!"
Ye Chen smiled and all the previous disappointment was gone. He held Lin Qing's hand and left the room together.
After leaving the house, Ye Chen took a deep breath of fresh air, but instead of letting Lin Qing take him away with his sword, he walked out of the alley.
Lin Qing was always pulled by him, no matter what he did, she always followed him, with a strong sense of obedience.
Outside the alley, near the lake outside Tiannan University, the two held hands and came to the lake where they had just experienced a battle to eliminate demons. Looking at the lake in front of them, they unconsciously recalled yesterday's battle in their minds.
Ye Chen knew that the water demon seemed to have been eliminated, but in fact it was not the case. What Xiao'e got rid of yesterday was only the body of the water demon, and his spirit had already turned into a ball of black energy and ran away.
He didn't think anything of it at first, maybe because he was worried about Lin Qing's injury, and Xiao'e didn't force him to chase the water demon soul, but thinking about it today, he couldn't help but feel a little scared.
The water demon soul has run away, and I don't know where he will go to cause harm to the world.
"Master, don't worry. The water demon won't be able to come out to harm anyone in a short period of time. His soul has been severely damaged and it won't be possible to recover for more than a hundred days."
Xiao'e's words immediately eased Ye Chen's worries. At least for a short time, he didn't have to worry about the water demon coming out to harm others again.
As for what will happen a hundred days later, there is no need to think too much about it for the time being. After all, now I can defeat the water demon, and he is still a complete water demon with all his true body and spirit. In that hundred days, I don’t know how advanced my cultivation will be.
To what extent, the water demon is just a soul, so he doesn't have to be afraid of him at all.
Even if the water demon exerts his power and can possess the body and be reborn, then the body is no longer his own, at least it would be more troublesome to control.
This will directly weaken the water demon's strength, making it easier to deal with it.
Thinking that as long as he conquered the nine great sword spirits, he would be able to enter the third level of Tianxuan, or even higher, Ye Chen couldn't help but look forward to it.
I have subdued two major sword spirits in just a few days. I wonder how difficult it will be to subdue nine major sword spirits?
This is what he is looking forward to very much. Strength is what he needs most now. Having the Nine Sword Spirits means he has absolute strength.
