CHAPTER 241: CHAPTER 228 HONEST CONFESSION

Shi Nian this time, secretly returned to Ling Tian Peak.

Apart from notifying the people of Ling Tian Peak, she didn’t inform anyone else.

The Ling Tian Sword Master also knew that the Demon Clan was searching everywhere for Shi Nian, so naturally, he wouldn’t spread the word.

After the baldy teleported everyone to the Human Realm, they hurried along for a while before finally arriving at Ling Tian Peak.

The Ling Tian Sword Master had made arrangements in advance, and the group returned to Ling Tian Peak without anyone noticing.

At the summit of Ling Tian Peak.

The Ling Tian Sword Master, Mu Nanqing, and Lu Xingzhi were all eagerly awaiting their arrival.

Upon seeing Shi Nian and her party, Mu Nanqing couldn’t help but walk up to her, grabbing Shi Nian’s hands and looking her up and down, her eyes couldn’t help but moisten: "Xiao Nian, it’s good that you’re back."

Shi Nian hurriedly said: "Big Sister, rest assured, I’m doing well indeed, not even a minor injury have I suffered."

As she spoke, Shi Nian even turned in a circle to give Mu Nanqing a clearer view.

Mu Nanqing just nodded with tears.

Her poor Xiao Nian.

Such a heavy burden was placed on her, how could she possibly be as okay as she seemed?

She was simply trying not to worry her.

Lin Tiantian, seeing Mu Nanqing’s expression, knew what she was thinking.

She couldn’t help but scream inside her heart!

Big Sister!

Fourth Sister is telling the truth!

She’s become a leading figure in the Demon World!

The attack on the Demon Clan, she could even make the decisions!

She is really doing very well!

But since Shi Nian didn’t mention it herself, Lin Tiantian also found it improper to disclose, and her cheeks flushed red for the moment.

"Little Sister, what’s wrong?" Lu Xingzhi couldn’t help but ask with concern.

Lin Tiantian gave a light cough twice: "It’s nothing, I just think Fourth Sister really has it tough."

"And that Lin Bai Sword Immortal too." The Ling Tian Sword Master couldn’t help but say: "You’re all still so young, why must you be sent to do missions in the Demon Realm! That place is full of dangers, is it a place for children like you? Xiao Nian, don’t go back this time! If Lin Bai Sword Immortal dares to force you, just tell Master, I..."

Shi Nian was somewhat moved: "Master, what about you?"

She was somewhat shocked for a moment.

Was Master willing to fight against the number one figure of the Human Clan for her sake?

The Ling Tian Sword Master said: "I will curse him from behind!"

Shi Nian: "..."

The Ling Tian Sword Master cleared his throat: "Just kidding, just kidding! But really, if you’re unwilling, he surely wouldn’t force you children! Now, that Holy Daughter from the Demon World is looking for you everywhere, Xiao Nian, you really can’t go back to the Demon World."

"Right." Mu Nanqing couldn’t stop nodding: "That Holy Daughter is said to be very terrifying, after her baptism her cultivation has even surpassed the Demon Lord, if she finds you, Xiao Nian’s fate would be unimaginable!"

"Indeed. That Holy Daughter is said to have used the flesh and blood of ten thousand people of the Human Clan to cultivate her demon body, she is a true demon! Such a being is not someone to be provoked for now." Lu Xingzhi also added.

The three of them became more and more worried as they talked.

And then they looked up.

Shi Nian was doing okay.

Lu Zhuoyan had no expression.

What were Yun Jian and Lin Tiantian doing?

Why were their mouths puffed out, were they holding something in?

Feeling puzzled, the three of them.

Yun Jian and Lin Tiantian couldn’t hold back anymore, both of them burst into laughter at the same time.

Ling Tian Sword Master & Mu Nanqing & Lu Xingzhi: "????"

Had these two suddenly gone mad?

"Is there something wrong with what I said?" Mu Nanqing couldn’t help but ask.

"Isn’t that Holy Daughter terrifying?" Lu Xingzhi was also puzzled.

"Terrifying, she’s incredibly terrifying." Yun Jian tried to hold back his laughter, he couldn’t help but glance at Shi Nian.

"Rest assured, no matter how terrifying, she wouldn’t dare to harm our Sister, unless she’s gone mad." Lin Tiantian said.

???

Why?

A row of question marks appeared over the heads of Ling Tian Sword Master and the others.

They suddenly realized.

Was Shi Nian hiding something from them?

So, everyone turned their gaze toward Shi Nian in unison.

Shi Nian felt a bit embarrassed, she fidgeted for a while, "Ah, did I forget to tell you. I am actually... that Holy Daughter."

Silence.

Dead silence.

After a long while.

Ling Tian Sword Master frowned deeply: "Shi Nian, come inside."

Shi Nian’s heart trembled.

Crap, being called by full name was pretty alarming.

She looked to Lu Zhuoyan and the others for help.

They only gave her a look of helplessness.

Shi Nian then looked towards her eldest senior sister, who always treated her best.

The expression of the eldest senior sister seemed even colder than Master’s!

She turned her gaze to Lu Xingzhi.

Lu Xingzhi smiled: "Fourth junior sister, come, let’s have a good talk."

Shi Nian: "..."

Even more nervous.

Shi Nian took a deep breath, showed a resigned-to-fate expression, and followed Ling Tian Sword Master into the bamboo house.

Mu Nanqing and Lu Xingzhi followed in after them.

Lin Tiantian wanted to tag along for the excitement, but bam, the door to the bamboo house was slammed shut.

Lin Tiantian became anxious and hurriedly shouted: "Master, senior sister, senior brother, it’s okay to be a bit rough, our fourth sister is thick-skinned now. Just remember to use the Image Stone when you hit her."

Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to see and would be anxious.

"Lin Tiantian! You this..." Shi Nian’s angry voice came from inside.

"Stand properly!" Ling Tian Sword Master’s voice came out.

Immediately, Shi Nian’s voice could not be heard anymore.

Lin Tiantian pressed her ear against the door for a while, but when she heard nothing, she could only walk away in disappointment.

Inside the bamboo house.

Under the intense scrutiny of several pairs of eyes, Shi Nian could only confess everything from beginning to end, honestly.

Ling Tian Sword Master and the others listened in astonishment.

What the heck???

Going to the Demon Realm, she became the Great Commander of Mei City.

After the Immortal Demon Battlefield, she was directly chosen as the Holy Daughter.

In the Demon Pool, she even captured the reincarnated form of the Immortal Emperor.

The sudden Demon Clan’s attack on the Demon Clan was also instigated by her.

This... the more they heard, the more fantastical it became.

"That’s how things are." Shi Nian had a fawning expression: "I was afraid of worrying you all, which is why I hid these matters before."

Ling Tian Sword Master narrowed his eyes: "Lin Bai Sword Immortal knew about this, right?"

Shi Nian nodded her head: "I needed someone to coordinate with me in the Human Realm."

Lin Bai Sword Immortal was the best candidate.

Ling Tian Sword Master’s expression changed as he recalled Lin Bai Sword Immortal inviting him for inexplicable drinking sessions, saying he had trained a fine disciple.

He was clueless and just expressed his concern for Shi Nian who was still in the Demon Realm. At that time, Lin Bai Sword Immortal looked at him with a very strange expression.

Back then.

Ling Tian Sword Master didn’t understand that expression.

Now he got it.

What Lin Bai Sword Immortal probably wanted to say was: "Stop pretending!"

Heaven as my witness.

He, as the Master, knew nothing about this at all!!

Ling Tian Sword Master’s expression kept changing back and forth, back and forth.

Watching made Shi Nian even more frightened, prompting her to ask: "Master, is there anything else you want to ask?"

Ling Tian Sword Master narrowed his eyes: "You spoke too fast. Start over, this time with more details."

Shi Nian could only obediently start over.

It just so happened that Ling Tian Sword Master had many questions.

He asked whether the blood-red moonlight in the Demon Realm was deep red or pink red.

Then he asked if Ran Bi had lost any hair when they fought.

A bunch of weird and unpredictable questions.

Shi Nian couldn’t hold back anymore: "Master, can you not ask these strange questions?"

Ling Tian Sword Master expressionless: "When you were young, you also used to ask a lot of inexplicable questions, didn’t I answer you properly?"

Shi Nian felt somewhat drained: "But back then, when I asked too many questions, you could just hit me straightforwardly!"

Ling Tian Sword Master smiled faintly: "If you don’t answer me properly now, I can still hit you."

Shi Nian: "..."

So it’s me who always ends up getting beaten!
