For Instance, Like Me

A gentle breeze swept across the grass, and beneath a half-broken tree, Madam Murong knelt on the ground, holding a dagger.

Her hands were already covered in blood, and bright red blood dripped down from the dagger in her hand.

Before her lay the lifeless young master of the Miao Water Palace, a figure of Shen Xu.

Murong Qin walked to her mother's side, and the mother and daughter embraced tightly. They were both sobbing uncontrollably, having finally avenged their blood feud.

Jiang Lin and Sheng Yu stood at a distance to the side, not disturbing the mother and daughter.

After a long while, the crying stopped. Murong and her daughter walked up to Jiang Lin and bowed deeply. "Thank you, Young Master Jiang, for allowing us to avenge this tragedy! We have no way to repay your great kindness!"

"It's nothing, I just did it on the spur of the moment."

Jiang Lin waved his hand.

Wiping away the tears that hadn't yet dried from the corners of her eyes, Madam Murong said, "Young Master, let's hurry. Once we reach the town ahead, we can rent a carriage. In less than five or six days, we'll be at the border of the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom. Even if they catch up then, they won't dare to cause trouble in the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom."

Well, there's no need to rent a carriage.

Jiang Lin refused, turned to look at Sheng Yu, and placed the One Ring in his hand on the tip of Sheng Yu's wing, instructing him on the incantation.

"Brother Sheng Yu, I'd like to trouble you to take Niannian and the others to the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom. Oh, and this too."

The Exquisite Dice that Jiang Lin took from his waist.

"Brother Sheng Yu, you can just fly directly into the capital of the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom. If you are stopped, just say that Sheng Yu Jiang Lin is visiting, and then hand over this Exquisite Dice."

"No problem, Brother Jiang."

Sheng Yu a flap of his wings, Sheng Yu's figure expanded continuously, transforming into a giant, crimson rooster several tens of meters long in front of the Murong mother and daughter!

In the minds of the Murong mother and daughter, Sheng Yu was just a little demon who had not yet taken human form; they never expected that this chicken could actually grow bigger.

"Miss Murong, I'm going somewhere. Would you like to come with me?"

As Sheng Yu of wind swept them onto his back, Jiang Lin stepped forward and asked.

Jiang Lin planned to go to the Miao Water Palace, and decided to take Murong Qin with him.

Looking into Jiang Lin's earnest yet gentle eyes, Murong Qin glanced at her mother, Madam Murong simply smiled and nodded. The young girl then looked at Jiang Lin:

"Okay! I'll go!"

Sheng Yu with the wind and quickly disappeared from sight. Jiang Lin also removed the tokens from the disciples of the Miao Water Palace, then summoned the White Emperor City airship and took off with the wind, flying towards the Miao Water Palace under Murong Qin's guidance.

"Is the young master really going to the Miao Water Palace?"

At the bow of the boat, Murong Qin looked at Jiang Lin and asked with concern.

"Um."

Jiang Lin simply smiled and nodded, then patted her head.

The girl's cheeks flushed crimson the first time a man other than her father had touched her head, as if she had applied peach-pink rouge. She lowered her head and hunched her shoulders.

To the girl's surprise, she didn't resist at all.

The girl felt that the other person genuinely treated her like an elder, and didn't covet her like other men.

This senior colleague is truly a good person.

Of course, it could also be due to Jiang Lin's skillful technique...

"Miss Murong."

"Qin Er."

"Um?"

Murong Qin raised her eyes, which revealed a hint of dependence, and looked timidly at Jiang Lin: "Young Master, you can just call me Qin Er..."

"Haha, no problem, otherwise it does feel a bit rusty."

Jiang Lin didn't think much of it, because although he was handsome, the girl didn't seem to have any romantic feelings for him. Instead, she seemed to rely on him more like an older man, as if she considered him her older brother...

But this is good.

Being able to remain rational in the face of her own stunning good looks, this girl must have a very steady sword mind. She will definitely achieve great things in swordsmanship in the future.

"Qin Er, what is your impression of the Demon Race World?"

Jiang Lin asked, his eyes gazing intently ahead. He then deliberately loosened the Wind Avoiding Magic Array the bow of the ship, causing his blue robe to flutter and rustle, displaying an air of superiority that greatly Niu Huanxi!

"The Demon Race World..."

The girl's delicate, boneless white hands gripped the railing at the bow of the boat tightly, her brows slightly furrowed.

"My father once said that in the Demon Race World, having no strength is a sin, and being weak is the original sin."

"A person who is too kind cannot survive in the Demon Race World. If one is not strong, then one cannot protect anything."

"Hmm." Jiang Lin didn't refute, because that's how things are in the Demon Race World. "Do you agree?"

"Yes! I might not have understood before why the weak didn't have the right to live, but now I do!"

Raising her head, Murong Qin looked at Jiang Lin, the fragility of a young girl gone from her eyes.

"If I could be as powerful as Young Master Jiang, Qin Er's father wouldn't have died, and Xiao Chan and Xiao Juan wouldn't have been... harmed by those beasts..."

As she spoke, the girl's eyes gradually welled up with tears, becoming misty and foggy.

Jiang Lin simply placed his large hand on her head, just like an elder would.

"If you had the chance to live a peaceful life in the Demon Race World, accompanying your mother, and 《Husband and Child》 as a wife, would you be willing to live that kind of life?"

"But senior, how could such a life be possible..."

Murong Qin shook her head, changing her address from "Young Master" to "Senior," and her initial awkwardness transformed into the respect she showed as an elder.

How could such a life exist?

The girl knew that in this world, women were nothing more than objects, to be taken away at will.

Even a woman with moderate attractiveness could be abducted while walking down the street.

Moreover, the girl was Xiao Xiao self-aware of her mother's and her own appearance.

If Murong Estate weren't someone you couldn't mess with, the girl felt that she and her mother would probably have been taken away long ago.

How could it not be possible?

Jiang Lin couldn't help but smile.

"I can't protect everyone in the world, but you two are still fine. At worst, you and your mother can come with me to the Vast and Righteous World. However, Qin Er, I have another question."

"So, if you were able to cultivate yourself and become very skilled, what would you do?"

"Sharp?"

"Well, for example..." Jiang Lin pointed to himself, "Like being as awesome as me!"

"Emmmm..." The girl lowered her head, lost in thought, but soon she raised her head and said very seriously, "I want to become someone like you, senior!"

"Like me?"

"Um!"

"Not bad! That's ambitious! But there aren't many people as outstanding as me in this world."

Jiang Lin vigorously ruffled the girl's long hair.

"However, it's not impossible."

"Boom!"

No sooner had Jiang Lin finished speaking than the spaceship crashed into a magic array! The Mountains and Rivers Shake.

"Who dares to trespass on my Miao Water Palace!" A questioning voice rang out from afar! Immediately following, the Miao Water Palace was engulfed in flames!

Facing the spreading, Ghost Face Hellfire, the girl, though slightly pale and her petite body trembling Xiao Xiao, still stood straight at the bow of the ship.

"Wait me a moment."

Jiang Lin gently patted her shoulder and jumped off the bow of the boat.

"Vast and Righteous World Jiang Lin has come to pay a visit!"

Before the sword was drawn, its aura had already arrived.

In the blink of an eye, the sky cleared and the air became crisp!
