Chapter 172 A Moment of Intentiveness, But One Must Raise One's Own Maid



Looking at Lin Shiyin, who was crying with tears streaming down her face, Chu Qinghe shook his head and said, "Miss Lin has just been cleared of the poison and is still weak. It would be best to avoid getting too emotional."

Upon hearing this, Lin Shiyin nodded slightly, then took a deep breath.

After a short while, suppressing the sorrow in her heart, Lin Shiyin said softly, "I'm sorry to have made you laugh, young master."

However, Chu Qinghe waved his hand at Lin Shiyin's words and said, "It's alright. If Miss Lin doesn't mind, you can cry for a while longer."

Previously, Chu Qinghe thought that the "pear blossoms in the rain" scene was just a figment of his imagination.

But today, seeing Lin Shiyin sobbing and choking with a shy look on her face, Chu Qinghe realized that "pear blossoms in the rain" was actually an adjective.

Since they're not close yet, Chu Qinghe won't feel too uncomfortable if Lin Shiyin cries a little longer.

However, Lin Shiyin gently shook her head in response to Chu Qinghe's suggestion.

This gave Chu Qinghe a strange feeling of regret.

As Lin Shiyin picked up the bowl from the table, Xiao Zhao raised her hand to take it.

But Lin Shiyin shook her head and said, "We've already troubled you all, so Shiyin should wash the bowl herself!"

Hearing Lin Shiyin's words, Xiao Zhao paused for a moment and looked at Chu Qinghe.

Faced with Xiao Zhao's questioning gaze, Chu Qinghe nodded slightly in acknowledgment.

Seeing this, Xiao Zhao could only lead Lin Shiyin into the kitchen.

A moment later, when Lin Shiyin returned to the courtyard, Qu Feiyan asked the question that had been lingering in her mind.

"Sister Lin, isn't your cousin Li Xunhuan, the Little Li Scholar? Why didn't he show up when the Mo Mo Blade Sect was in trouble?"

Upon hearing Qu Feiyan's question, Lin Shiyin stiffened.

After a moment, he shook his head and said, "Before the Demon Blade Sect was attacked, I wrote to my cousin seven days in advance to inform him, but my cousin failed to show up when the Demon Blade Sect was attacked by the Rusty Sect."

Hearing Lin Shiyin's answer, Qu Feiyan looked enlightened.

Li Tanhua, though only nearly thirty years old, not only ranks third on the Baixiaosheng Weapon Ranking, but is also a Grandmaster on the Grandmaster List, a powerful expert at the peak of the Grandmaster realm, and is famous throughout the world for his flying knife skills.

If Li Xunhuan were here, the Demon Blade Sect should not have been destroyed, not to mention that Lin Shiyin was kidnapped by the Five Poisons Child.

Immediately, Qu Feiyan asked, "Sister Lin, what are your plans now?"

Hearing Qu Feiyan's question, Lin Shiyin opened her mouth, but her face and eyes instantly became confused.

The Demon Blade Sect, where she grew up, was destroyed, and her parents were killed. For Lin Shiyin, it felt like the world was vast, but there was nowhere to go.

As her thoughts raced, images of her loved ones and the killing of the Demon Blade Sect disciples quickly surfaced in Lin Shiyin's mind.

Gradually, in Lin Shiyin's watery eyes, in addition to confusion and sorrow, a touch of coldness appeared.

He turned his head and glanced at Dongfang Bubai and Yaoyue, who were cultivating in the courtyard, their bodies surrounded by flowing true energy.

When Lin Shiyin turned back to look at Chu Qinghe again, a resolute look appeared in her eyes.

The next moment, in everyone's sight, Lin Shiyin stood up, took a few steps to the side, and then knelt on the ground.

Seeing Lin Shiyin suddenly kneel down, not to mention Qu Feiyan and Xiao Zhao.

Even Dongfang Bubai and Yaoyue, who were originally cultivating with their eyes closed, turned their heads slightly to glance at Lin Shiyin.

Under the watchful eyes of the group, Lin Shiyin said sincerely, "Since you know my identity, you must also know what has happened to me. Now, the Demon Blade Sect has been destroyed by our enemies, and I am burdened with a deep-seated hatred. Now, I have been fortunate enough to meet a master like you. If you are willing to help me avenge my family, I am willing to serve as your servant to repay your great kindness."

Looking at Lin Shiyin kneeling on the ground, Qu Feiyan asked curiously, "By the way, Sister Lin, isn't your cousin Li Xunhuan, the Little Li Scholar? With his Grandmaster Realm Perfection cultivation, if you want revenge, why don't you just ask him for help?"

In response, Lin Shiyin smiled bitterly and said, "Although my cousin has already reached the peak of the Grandmaster realm, he is too upright in his actions. Given his personality, at most he would only give the sect that destroyed the Demon Blade Sect a slight punishment."

For Lin Shiyin, when the Demon Blade Sect encountered trouble, all her hopes were placed on Li Xunhuan, hoping that he could save the Demon Blade Sect from this crisis.

The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

After witnessing her loved ones being killed, Lin Shiyin lost all hope for Li Xunhuan's return.

Now that she knows Li Xunhuan's character well, how could Lin Shiyin place her hopes on him again?

Once a woman loses her sense of security, it is often gone forever.

Just like Lin Shiyin.

The trust that had been placed in Li Xunhuan was shattered with the destruction of the Demon Blade Sect.

The fact that the dignified leader of the Sun Moon Divine Sect, Dongfang Bubai, and the Grand Palace Master of the Yihua Palace, Yaoyue, could appear in this courtyard at the same time is enough to show Chu Qinghe's extraordinary nature.

At this moment, Lin Shiyin saw it as a lifeline and the only chance to avenge her blood feud.

With his gaze fixed on Lin Shiyin before him, Chu Qinghe said in a gentle tone, "However, to place such hopes on me on our first meeting, Miss Lin, isn't this trust too easily placed?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Shiyin smiled bitterly and said, "Although it is a risk, for Shiyin, there is no other choice."

After saying that, Lin Shiyin took a deep breath and then slammed her head against the ground.
