Fairy, return my flying sword to me

Chapter 245 A new journey
When it comes to spatial magic, Jian Xu, being a Nascent Soul cultivator, already knows it; Lin Jian is a newcomer in this field.

When he arrived above the forest, a powerful pressure enveloped the entire surrounding space; this was the most orthodox pseudo-domain of a Nascent Soul stage cultivator.

Previously, if some extreme measures had not been used, Lin Jian would have had difficulty breaking free from the suppression of the pseudo-domain.

Now, after forcibly unleashing several bursts of power with the strength of someone who has just entered the second level of the Golden Core stage, he is no longer able to withstand the suppression of the domain.

For a moment, his internal energy stagnated, and even speaking became difficult.

Jian Xu's aged eyes swept over indifferently, "Where do you plan to run off to?"

Lin Jian was drenched in sweat, lying on the ground, too weak to refute.

Finally, Jianxu's gaze slowly fell on the woman who had been protected by Lin Jian.

Even at this moment, the woman, who was only human, did not seem to show much fear on her face. Instead, she looked at herself up and down with a hint of observation in her eyes.

More importantly, even in this dire situation, the young man in the forest still kept the woman tightly behind him, unwilling to let her suffer any harm.

Is it because of love?
That can't be it.

What kind of love could they, as practitioners, possibly have with mortals?
After living my own life for only twenty or thirty years, the other half I found has already aged and lost their beauty.

Let alone being a companion, even being a regular servant would be considered clumsy and unable to help.

Even if a cultivator is just doing some minor tasks, it will still be troublesome without true qi.

Even if we can't find a really good one, finding one at the Qi Refining stage shouldn't be a problem, right?
With Lin Jian's current Golden Core stage cultivation, countless outstanding disciples at the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stages would be eager to become his attendants. Why would he need to cling to this mortal?

Not to mention that even in times of trouble, she didn't forget to take him with her when she ran away, and protected him when he was about to die. This is not love, but only a biological mother would treat you like this.

Previously, I had often seen this woman following me in the woods, and I had had fleeting doubts in my mind, but for some reason, I never thought about it deeply at the time.

Under these unusual circumstances, I delved deeper into the matter and finally "saw" so much evidence that I had never thought about before.

This is practically irrefutable proof, isn't it?

The result is obvious—

This woman is none other than the legendary sword immortal from the upper realm who severely injured the Demon Lord of the Heavenly Demon Flame Prison!
It was precisely because of her gift, coupled with Lin Jian's own natural talent and hard work, that Lin Jian was able to grow so rapidly in less than a year.

"It's you?" Jianxu's eyes met Chunxue's eyes indifferently, and he asked with a hint of curiosity.

"It's me." Chunxue smiled, seemingly unaware of the importance of the matter.

"Very good." Jian Xu nodded. "You haven't dared to contact the Upper Realm through any channels for so long, so it seems your cultivation has indeed been damaged, just as the rumors say. Now, what are your chances of becoming an immortal?"

Chunxue spread her hands out on the ground in a large, disheveled manner, saying, "As you wish, it won't happen~"

Jian Xu narrowed his eyes, "Really?"

"of course."

Jian Xu remained silent, simply staring at Chun Xue and scrutinizing her from head to toe.

Sensing the faint killing intent emanating from the other party, Haruyuki secretly made preparations.

Although she can't unleash her full power right now because she has to suppress the demonic nature from the Flame Prison Demon Lord, dealing with one or two Nascent Soul stage minions is still a piece of cake.

If the other party really dares to make a move, she wouldn't mind having another soul from the Demon Worship Sect under her command.

Unexpectedly, after staring at each other for a long time, Jian Xu suddenly laughed and said, "Good."

As his imposing manner subsided, he nodded in satisfaction, "In that case, you may leave."

Lin Jian: “?”

Haruyuki: “?”

Jian Xu glanced at them sideways. "What? Don't want to leave?"

Lin Jian grabbed Chunxue and tried to run away, saying, "I want to leave, I want to leave."

Although I don't know what got into this old man, he first stopped them and beat them up, then asked them a question and let them go.

But as long as the person is still alive, that's a good thing.

"Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, never underestimate a young man's potential!" But Chunxue was someone who wanted to understand everything. She broke free from Lin Jian's hands, turned around and looked at Jian Xu, "Why? You've been chasing me all this time, isn't this your best chance?"

Jianxu smiled contemptuously, "What we want to kill is you when you can become an immortal, not you who are now a piece of trash."

This made Chunxue so anxious she jumped up and down, "What do you mean? What do you mean! You look down on me, don't you?! Believe me, this great king will ascend to heaven on the spot and blind your dog eyes!"

Lin Jian grabbed Chunxue by the waist and pulled her away from her, who was baring her teeth and claws. Since no one else was chasing them, what was the point of talking to them?

The best course of action is to run away before the other party changes their mind.

However, Lin Jian had only taken two steps carrying Chunxue when Jian Xu suddenly shouted, "Wait!"

'really. ’

Lin Jian sighed inwardly, knowing that there really wasn't such a good thing in the world.

The other side went to great lengths to block them here; how could they just release them after a few words?
"What?" Chunxue turned around, hands on her hips, her eyes revealing a knowing 'I knew it' attitude. "Changed your mind?"

He rolled up his sleeves, ready to get to work.

Jian Xu smiled nonchalantly, "I wanted to tell you that if you have time, you can visit the Bao Liuli Kingdom. I heard that a large batch of goods from an unknown merchant guild were recently transported there. Perhaps you'll be interested."

Chamber of Commerce supplies?

Tongda Chamber of Commerce? The chamber of commerce that Senior Sister Li Qingyu used to belong to?

Reminded by the other party, Lin Jian instantly recalled what he had experienced before.

The cultivators of the Humanitarian Alliance's Demon-worshipping faction had previously targeted the Tongda Merchant Guild, attempting to swindle a large quantity of rarely used supplies from them.

Although he was present at the time, the matter was not successful.

However, the Demon Worship Sect always operates in multiple areas, just like the Tianyuan Demon Rift which was completely lost not long ago. The Tongda Chamber of Commerce may not be the only victim.

Their failure here may not be so bad for chambers of commerce elsewhere.

As a cultivator of the Human Dao Alliance, Jian Xu naturally had some understanding of the actions of the people within the organization.

But what is his intention in telling this secret to two "outsiders"?
These thoughts swirled in his mind, and Lin Jian bowed respectfully, saying, "Thank you for the reminder, senior."

Then he picked up Chunxue again and ran away.

Watching the two disappear into the distance, Jian Xu calmly stroked his beard from the treetop.

Judging from this kid's actions after meeting this sword immortal from the Upper Nine Realms, he is clearly a person who cares about the world.

Since he was able to accomplish those things, it was undoubtedly with the tacit approval of this sword immortal from the Upper Nine Realms.

The sword immortals of the past only existed in the kill orders within the Human Alliance. Now that he had seen one with his own eyes, he felt that such a sword immortal might not necessarily be someone who had to be killed.

Immortal Slaughtering Sect? Demon Worshiping Sect?
Or perhaps the so-called righteous cultivators of the human race?

No one knows who is truly on the path to saving the world.

But now the Demon Worship Sect's actions are escalating, and it looks like it's about to go to extremes.

As allies, the Immortal Slaughtering Sect cannot directly intervene. Perhaps the combination of this Upper Nine Realms Sword Immortal and the Lower Nine Realms Genius Sword Cultivator can create some miracle.

……

After escaping the jungle where they were being hunted, Lin Jian and Chun Xue collapsed onto the ground, completely losing their composure.

The two of them stood head to head, looking at the sky together.

"The Kingdom of Precious Glass?"

"It seems we still have to go see the Imperial Advisor."

"set off!"

"For the future of humanity!"
