This Day Would Not Be Too Far Off (Double Chapter)

Half a month has passed since we left the Soul Refining Secret Realm.

During these two weeks, Jiang Lin continued to consolidate his Martial Warrior Realm at the Chen Manor.

Although the statues in the Chen Manor's Soul Refinement Field were damaged, the outer areas of the Refining God Field, which were paved with Divine Wood, remained completely unaffected.

When Jiang Lin stepped on it, the same endless pressure from the fist remained.

However, it's much better than before.

Originally, Chen Jia was helping Jiang Lin practice his boxing, but when facing Jiang Lin, Chen Jia's punches seemed to lose their power, and she would stop in time every time, even feeling weak.

As they practiced, it became less like Martial Warrior sparring and more like a couple flirting, with the woman playfully punching his chest.

Chen Huo couldn't stand it any longer and stepped in to help Jiang Lin practice his boxing. However, he accidentally injured Jiang Lin and was then chased and beaten by his own daughter...

There was no other way but for Madam Chen to suppress her cultivation level to the Fourth Realm and personally help feed the punches.

At this moment, Jiang Lin fully realized how terrifying Madam Chen's Martial Warrior Fourth Realm! He even began to think about how good Uncle Chen was...

As for Jiang Lin obtaining the Martial Luck Pearl, Jiang Lin also considered whether to use it to help improve his Martial Luck Pearl arts.

Madam Chen and Chen Jia also suggested that Jiang Lin Martial Luck Pearl to improve his martial arts and strengthen his physique.

After all, using Martial Luck Pearl to improve martial arts is a legitimate path, not a shortcut or crooked method. Moreover, it's said that having more Martial Luck also improves one's luck.

However, after careful consideration, Jiang Lin ultimately decided not to choose the martial fortune, but instead distributed these ancient martial fortunes to Niannian and the Little White Fox.

The white fox was born a great mage, and after cultivating to the point where every move it made was a world-destroying spell.

Jiang Lin even felt that if Jiu Yi hadn't been worried about destroying the entire White Emperor City, she would have already unleashed her ultimate move.

However, although the white fox has maxed out its mage talent, it is physically weak.

Therefore, Jiang Lin plans to train these Little White Fox and Niannian into melee mages.

(Niannian should be an exception, since dragons are naturally strong and their bodies become stronger with each molt.)

A mage who can't fight in melee isn't a good mage, and Jiang Lin doesn't expect them to become Pure Martial Warrior.

However, with such high-quality and high-quantity ancient martial fortune bestowed upon him, even if the Martial Warrior True Qi and spiritual energy conflict with each other at that time, he can still cultivate a Martial Warrior Core.

Jiang Lin entrusted the task of raising these Little White Fox to Little Jia, Little Jia happily accepted.

The Little White Foxes especially liked this Little Jia, perhaps because of Little Jia pure and innocent nature.

Whenever Jiang Lin saw Little Jia leading the Little White Fox and Niannian on the training course, the beautiful scene was like a scenic view, and Jiang Lin felt he could watch it for a lifetime.

However, the good times didn't last long. Three months later, while Jiang Lin was still idly scratching at the dark cliff with a tree branch in his hand, Kong Ba Ba came looking for Jiang Lin with a black cat staring at his head.

Jiang Lin knew it was time for him to set off.

When are you leaving?

Sitting at the foot of the cliff, Jiang Lin and Kong Ba Ba were eating hot pot. The black cat and Jiu Yi seemed to hit it off immediately, chirping and meowing beside them.

"I'd like to set it for tomorrow. What do you think, Brother Jiang?"

Kong Ba Ba picked up a piece of pork belly that he had taken from the South Street Butcher Shop.

These days, pork is really expensive.

"Tomorrow...?" Jiang Lin put down a plate of chives, looked up at the sky, and said, "I've been resting at the Sun Moon Sect for almost half a year now, it's time to leave. Tomorrow it is then."

"Brother Jiang, to be honest, as delicate flowers in a greenhouse, the Demon Race World is truly not for us."

Jiang Lin shook his head. "Don't say anymore, my mind is made up. Saying more will just make me say 'I have a dream'."

"..."

"In that case, I'll wait for Brother Jiang outside the church gate tomorrow."

"Um."

Kong Ba Ba bowed and left, while Jiang Lin also stood up, put Jiu Yi in his arms, and then left that damned giant black cliff.

Upon returning to the Chen Manor (since his master's passing, Jiang Lin had essentially settled Chen Manor, except for sleeping at night), the first thing he saw was Chen Huo, Madam Chen, and his sister-in-law discussing something.

Whenever Jiang Lin saw his aunt, Chen Cai, looking at Chen Huo with such complicated eyes, he couldn't help but wipe a bead of sweat from his brow.

I have a feeling that Uncle Chen might be dismembered by Madam Chen at any moment.

But then I thought, this is ancient times after all, and it's normal for men to have multiple wives and concubines.

Of course, if Uncle Chen can withstand Madam Chen's punches...

Anyway, until I have enough strength, I still need to keep this from Little Jia, my master, and my senior sisters for now. It would be bad if I got killed...

"Oh, it's Little Lin."

"Kid, we were just talking about you."

"Madam Chen, Auntie, Uncle Chen."

Jiang Lin gave a perfunctory bow.

"Alright, no need for such formalities in front of us. Come, let's have some tea."

"Oh."

Jiang Lin walked over, but there were only three external ones. Then Madam Chen kicked her husband away.

"Come, Little Lin, sit down."

So Jiang Lin naturally sat down...

"Is there something you need from Little Lin? Could it be that he's here to propose Little Jia? It might be a bit fast, but it's not a good idea."

Chen Cai joked.

"Uh, no, that's not it... I've come today to say goodbye to the three of you. Tomorrow I'll be joining the Sun Moon Sect."

"Tomorrow? Is it that sudden?" Chen Cai looked somewhat surprised.

"Are you going on a mission, kid?"

Jiang Lin shook his head. "No, it's my personal matter."

"Little Lin, where are you going?"

"The Demon Race World."

"..."

The three looked at each other and fell silent.

After a long silence, Madam Chen slowly spoke, "Does Little Jia know?"

"I'll talk to Little Jia about it later, but I probably won't tell Little Jia about my trip to the Demon Race World."

Chen Cai nodded. "Indeed, the Demon Race World is far too dangerous. If Little Jia knew, she definitely wouldn't let you go."

"Jiang Lin, do you really have to go?" Madam Chen looked at Jiang Lin with concern.

For cultivators from the Demon Race World Vast and Righteous World is simply too unsuitable.

How many cultivators in the Vast and Righteous World, ignorant of their own limitations, want to go to the Demon Race World for training?

But what about it?

In the end, not even bones were left.

The cultivators there wouldn't consider karma, nor would they worry about whether you have some powerful backer.

In any case, they can kill whomever they want, let alone strangers like Jiang Lin.

"Yes, I have to go!"

Looking into Madam Chen's eyes, Jiang Lin did not try to avoid her at all.

Whether it's for Niannian's sake (mainly because he's afraid Niannian will spray him to death with a mouthful of salt water after breaking the seal) or for Jiu Yi's sake, Jiang Lin has to go.

Not to mention the deal he made with Wu Su Su.

Furthermore, Jiang Lin truly did not want to let that dragon go.

Jiang Lin never considered himself a vengeful person, but that dragon made Jiang Lin extremely uncomfortable.

If it weren't for the fact that Jiu Yi and I were bound by Marriage Thread back then, Jiu Yi would really be dead by now!

Furthermore, Jiang Lin felt that if it weren't for Wu Su Su's cunning move in the Demon Race World that made him back down, the consequences for his master and Wu Su Su would have been unimaginable.

That dragon certainly won't let it go easily.

Since that's the case, then I'll take advantage of his weakness and kill him.

Even though he is currently at the Golden Core Realm.

But so what if you're at the Golden Core Realm? In a large sect, that's just being a Little Offering; in any dynasty, you could be granted a title and a high-ranking position.

Jiang Lin was confident in himself; he was certain he could outmaneuver and kill him!

"But..."

"Alright, Little Zhuang, Jiang Lin is a man. There's no reason for him to be protected by girls all the time. Since this kid is serious this time, then he should have his way."

Holding his wife's shoulder, Chen Huo looked at Jiang Lin earnestly.

Madam Chen bit her lower lip, wanting to say something, but then shook her head.

This was the first time Jiang Lin had ever seen Madam Chen listen to Uncle Chen.

When Jiang Lin looked at Chen Huo in surprise, he only saw Chen Huo's proud expression, as if to say, "See! I told you, at home, I'm the one who calls the shots. Kid, you should learn from me!"

Chen Zhuang: "Jiang Lin, I can't say much about your choice, but since you're a man, please keep your promise. You must come back alive, then come to Ten Thousand Mile City and prove everything with your fists."

Jiang Lin stood up, cupped his hands in a respectful bow, and said, "I understand. I have another request."

"Is it to take care of Niannian and the Little White Foxes?"

"I need to take Niannian with me this time, so I'll leave the Little White Foxes in Madam Chen's care."

"No problem."

Madam Chen sighed. Hearing that he was going to take Niannian away, Madam Chen was also a little reluctant, but she also vaguely guessed that part of the reason he went to the Demon Race World was because of Niannian.

"Actually, I also have something to tell you, which is that Little Jia is going back to Ten Thousand Mile City."

Madam Chen spoke slowly.

"Little Jia's Golden Body Realm has been completely consolidated. The Soul Refinement Field and ordinary punches no longer have much effect on her. If she wants to advance further, she must go to Ten Thousand Mile City and fight a bloody battle with the demon race."

Hearing Madam Chen's words, Jiang Lin frowned slightly. He was about to speak when Madam Chen interrupted him.

"I know what you're trying to say, but Little Jia isn't an ordinary woman. She's a girl from the Chen Family. Which girl from the Chen Family hasn't gone down into the city to slay demons?"

Moreover, she is the only person in the Vast and Righteous World who could possibly enter the Martial God Realm. If she were to Little Jia into the Martial God Realm, it would be tantamount to proving to all martial Martial Warrior that the path of martial arts is not a dead end, but still has a whole new world to explore.

This is a fortunate thing for all Martial Warrior in the world.

Besides, this was Little Jia's own idea, but she hasn't told you yet because she was afraid you'd worry and object, and wanted us to persuade you.

"Alright, kid," Chen Huo hooked his arm around Jiang Lin's shoulder, "With me here, even if the Matchmaker Old Man from the Demon Race World came, I'm confident I could get Little Jia away from the battlefield. She's my daughter, and I'm just as worried as you are. Don't worry."

Jiang Lin took two steps back, bowed, and said, "Then I'll leave it to Uncle Chen. Please wait for me, Uncle Chen and Little Jia. One day I will challenge Ten Thousand Mile City. That day won't be long."

Although I am still worried, since it is Little Jia's choice after careful consideration, and even her parents persuaded me, it means that Little Jia's mind is made up.

Moreover, with Uncle Chen around, and Little Jia being the Chen clan's precious treasure, nothing could possibly happen to her, so I can rest assured.

"Haha, not bad, kid. We'll be waiting for you in Ten Thousand Mile City! Alright, go say goodbye to Little Jia too. She's in the backyard. But remember, don't be too late. The number of men chasing after my daughter could circle Ten Thousand Mile City four or five times."

Jiang Lin couldn't help but laugh, "Anyone who tries to steal my woman, I'll smash their head in!"

After saying goodbye to Uncle Chen and Madam Chen, Jiang Lin went to the backyard with some trepidation.

Upon arriving at the backyard, the first thing I saw was Little Jia leading Niannian and the others in practicing martial arts.

Seeing Jiang Lin looking at her from the archway in the courtyard, Chen Jia blushed slightly.

Niannian and the Little White Foxes also rushed towards Jiang Lin Jiang Lin and hung around his neck.

In an instant, Jiang Lin was engulfed by their fluffy tails.

After a long while, Jiang Lin gave each of them a colorful Lollipop, and they happily jumped away to go to Jiji Bo's house to play with the little sows.

"Little Jia, this is for you."

Jiang Lin took out a pair of black fingerless gloves from his Storage Bag.

Jiang Lin bought these gloves from the auction house in Empty Spirit City years ago, but Jiang Lin felt they weren't unique enough, so Jiang Lin dismantled them. After all, the gloves were made of pretty good material and had some magic immunity.

After spending 10,000 Notoriety Points in the system shop to buy half a catty of Heavenly Silkworm Immortal Silk, Jiang Lin Jiang Lin asked Aunt Xiao from the South Street tailor shop to weave it together according to the pattern he had given her.

Jiang Lin had long imagined Little Jia with her hair tied in a ponytail, wearing a black baseball cap, a vest, denim shorts, and black fingerless gloves.

Coupled with Little Jia pure and innocent appearance and the heroic spirit she exudes, how could such Female Martial Warrior not be captivating?

Why would you send me something for no reason?

Although she seemed a little Tsundere, Jiang Lin knew from the fleeting joy in the girl's eyes that she was very satisfied with the gloves.

"Well... if we don't deliver it now, who knows when it will be?"

"What's the meaning?"

Chen Jia stood there, clutching her gloves, her expression slightly frozen.

With her head bowed, the cool early winter breeze ruffled her hair, carrying the faint scent of sweat from her recent boxing practice. Her skirt fluttered slightly, revealing glimpses of her fair and pink ankles.

The girl pressed her gloves tightly against her chest. Jiang Lin really wanted to tell her to stop, saying it was already quite flat...

Are you leaving again?

Jiang Lin glanced sideways and nodded. "There are many things waiting for me to do."

When are you coming back?

"Hmm... it might take a year or two."

Where are we going?

"Demon... Confucian Academy, then go check out the White Empire in the Ten Thousand Demons Continent. Don't worry, there's no danger."

I'll go with you!

Raising her eyes, Chen Jia looked directly at Jiang Lin!

Reaching out, Jiang Lin placed his palm on the girl's head and couldn't help but smile, "Silly girl, weren't you going to Ten Thousand Mile City?"

"You... Jiang Lin, you... have you agreed?"

"Okay! I agree!"

"Then I can go to the Confucian Academy with you first, and then we can go to Ten Thousand Mile City!"

"Stop fooling around."

Jiang Lin gently pinched the girl's nose.

"Those scholars are powerless, and I will be in no danger. In comparison, promise me you will protect yourselves, and then wait for me, wait for me to come to Ten Thousand Mile City to propose marriage!"

A gentle breeze caressed the girl's slightly flushed and burning cheeks.

The girl pressed her gloves tightly against her chest, her head resting against Jiang Lin's chest. Her voice was like Clear Spring, tinkling into his heart:

"Um..."
