"...If I can cultivate immortality, will it be useful?"
Luo Jiujiang said anxiously, "It will be useful. Now we can take her back to the academy. If you, Brother Yin, are willing to take care of her, Yaofeng can provide her with a roof over her head. If you're not willing, I can take care of her myself or ask Master You to help. I can ensure she grows up safely."
This sounds frivolous, but it is actually very feasible.
The girl was only conspicuous in the human world; in the world of cultivation, she was just a child with mediocre cultivation. When the huge Mirage Pearl was hidden in Luo Jiujiang's Dantian, it was only discovered by Yin Bansi. Now that it has completely transformed into the child's meridians, it is naturally even more hidden.
As long as she can be prevented from being coveted by others, everything else will not matter.
Yin Bansi's mouth twisted into a strange smile. "Great, the treasure's owner didn't pursue the matter from the beginning. The secret remains a secret, and there's a safe place to go. Now if she doesn't survive, who will? I just wonder if you were to be hunted down and you were to encounter this huge lost treasure, wouldn't you be the first to tear it apart piece by piece?"
His words were still harsh as always, but his tone was not as interrogative as the literal meaning.
He was just repeating it.
The girl seemed to have embarked on a new path. It couldn't be said to be the best, but it was not the worst either. Although she might not be successful, she would surely be safe with Luo Jiujiang's promise.
But he was imprisoned, and that path had nothing to do with him anymore.
"I won't," Luo Jiujiang said firmly. "If I were to find myself in such a situation, I would leave money in the village to hire someone to take care of the patient, and then I would take the child and run away. As long as I'm still alive, I won't let anyone touch her."
Yin Bansi raised his eyelids, and his tone was not sure if it was a mockery: "You want to use the sword as evidence again?"
"No, I have Brother Yin's trust in me as proof."
Luo Jiujiang stared directly at Yin Bansi and spoke in a clear, resounding voice, "Brother Yin, you believed me in the past and never harbored any inappropriate thoughts about the female disciples of Yao Peak. Today, you must also believe that I will not abandon my young child at this critical moment, because this is the way things are in the world. This child was implicated by you and me. Even if we die, she shouldn't be the one to suffer misfortune."
"That's a good point, but it's just a point. Do you really think there are many people like you in this world?"
"That's a lot." Luo Jiujiang said firmly, "Brother Yin, there's only one me in front of you right now. When you return to the academy, you'll see hundreds of me's. If you're willing to look around the world, there are tens of millions of people who think and act the same way as I do."
"Brother Yin, what trapped you won't happen again. I've seen firsthand how utterly awful people can be. Life there is worthless, precarious, and a wanted warrant doesn't even allow for the slightest bit of compassion... But even in that utterly awful environment, I've met some wonderful people."
"I believe that even grass can grow on saline soil, and that souls can survive on a thousand-mile-long, frigid river. I once fell into a place where gray clouds blanketed the snow year-round, and the sky was thick with haze. Yet, even beneath layers of underground palaces, I personally saw the light of day."
"Brother Yin, don't torture yourself." Luo Jiujiang said softly: "Look, there is fertile land in front of her. She is saved."
Yin Bansi stared at Luo Jiujiang for a long time, and finally smiled without any sarcasm.
“I always feel that I am really unlucky.”
Seeing that he wanted to pour out his heart, Luo Jiujiang listened silently.
"I think so now." Yin Bansi closed his eyes. "God has been really unkind to me. He deliberately made me meet you seventeen years late."
Having said this, Yin Bansi remained silent for a moment, then slowly turned his back. Unlike his previous attempts to leave, this time he seemed a little embarrassed.
Yes, given his personality, being able to express the meaning of "Why wasn't it you I met when I was a child" in such a euphemistic way is no less than asking for his life directly.
Luo Jiujiang was stunned for a moment, then he quickly chuckled and walked over to the other person: "Brother Yin, don't go. I left something behind that day and didn't give it to you."
He smiled and stretched out his palm towards Yin Bansi, in the palm of his hand lay a half-opened palm flower.
...I get angry when I see Huayin half dead.
To this day, he can still clearly recall how the boy across from him heartlessly pinned the flower on his lapel and then stupidly pulled it off.
He later asked his disciples to experiment several times, but he never saw a palm flower that could bloom to this extent again.
If Yin Bansi had the good fortune to have a good chat with Feng Xue, he would know that there is a behavior in the world called hot plugging.
Yin Bandi had a stern face and stared coldly at Luo Jiujiang, pretending to be ferocious to cover up his momentary softening and helplessness, trying to scare him away with his eyes.
After ten breaths of stalemate, he finally realized that this approach was not advisable.
Yin Bansi could only coldly say, "Don't call me so familiar. In the past seven or eight days, you've been calling everyone in the academy 'Brother Li' and 'Brother Zhao'. I know them all over the place. You've almost collected all the surnames. Even the egret on Yunshen Peak is your bird brother. There's no need to add me as one."
Who is Luo Jiujiang? In his short life, he has dealt with three tough guys, Han Qianling, his master and Xie Chuncan. If he can't hear the duplicity in Yin Bansi's words, he might as well take Han Qianling's surname.
After hearing Yin Bansi's mixed words of fighting and defending, Luo Jiujiang just smiled, pretending that the awkwardness in the other party's words did not exist.
"The academy is full of twelve peak masters, so it seems inappropriate to address them as such. In that case, I can only call you Old Yin."
“…”
Yin Bansi's brows were deeply furrowed.
There are very few people in the world who can remain calm with this expression on his face. Luo Jiujiang nine days ago couldn't do it either, but Luo Jiujiang now can.
