The Kindness of a Gentle Smile...

The Sword Sect of the Ten Thousand Swords Continent, Vast and Righteous World.

Within this sect brimming with sword energy, a beautiful and gentle young woman sat atop a mountain peak.

Once, on this mountain peak, the girl kissed that stinky fox right in front of him.

The girl gently pressed her fair fingers to her lips; she would never forget that sweet taste.

only...

He misses me...

He didn't miss me...

"He has another woman outside..."

"He remained chaste outside..."

Sitting atop the mountain peak, the girl plucked petals from the tree in her hand. Cherry-pink petals and bare stems fell all around her, creating a scene of delicate beauty.

He's having an affair!

As the girl counted down the last petal, her brow furrowed slightly.

Then the girl unhappily picked another flower and continued picking until she counted to "He remained chaste outside."

The girl's eyes crinkled into a smile, and all the flowers of early spring seemed to lose their luster.

only...

I looked up at the blue sky and white clouds.

Eighty-two days, two hours, and one quarter of an hour have passed since Little Lin left... I miss him...

"Qingwan..."

Just as the girl was curled up, hugging her long legs and resting her head on her knees, her mother's voice called from behind her.

"Mother..."

When she saw her mother coming over, the girl still hugged herself tightly.

She regretted it...

I could have gone with Little Lin at that time.

The girl felt that since Little Lin had been so insistent on not letting her go to the Demon Race World, Little Lin would definitely be angry if she insisted on going with him.

But now, the girl regrets it...

Little Lin can be angry if she wants; she can scold herself, hit herself, or even tie herself up— Little Lin can do whatever she wants to herself.

But I can't bear life without Little Lin...

Moreover, there are so many tigresses in the Demon Race World; who knows if Little Lin will be seduced by some demon?

The more the girl thought about it, the more unhappy she became, and the more she wanted to go to the Demon Race World. But she also knew it was too late; she didn't even know where Little Lin was now...

"Alright, don't be sad. You're not married yet. If your father sees you losing your appetite and can't eat or sleep, he'll be furious."

Lin Xiuxiu sat beside her daughter, gently stroking her hair.

I've come to tell you something.

"Um?"

At this moment, Lin Qingwan turned her head slightly, but there were tears in her eyes. Her pitiful and lovesick appearance made people feel both sorry for her and helpless.

"Your father agreed to let you go to Ten Thousand Mile City for training."

Really?

The girl's eyes lit up upon hearing the news her mother brought.

Although he couldn't go to the Demon Race World to find Little Lin —after all, the Demon Race World was so vast, where could he possibly go? Besides, he was on the Demon Race World's Cradle List, which would only cause trouble for Little Lin.

But I can go to Ten Thousand Mile City myself...

Little Lin is so strong now, already at the Nascent Soul Realm, how can I be weaker than Little Lin? After all, what if Little Lin Little Lin brings back a few more women in the future, and I still can't defeat him?

Ten Thousand Mile City is the best testing ground.

Once I reach Ten Thousand Mile City, I can hone my swordsmanship and break through to the Jade Purity Realm as soon as possible, thus preventing Little Lin from bringing more Fox Spirits home.

You can also inquire about Little Lin's whereabouts in Ten Thousand Mile City, since Ten Thousand Mile City is the first place to receive news about the Demon Race World.

"Really." Lin Xiuxiu gently stroked her daughter's pert nose. "But there's one condition: Mother must go with you and protect you."

"Ah... Mother... Qingwan is no longer a child..."

"What do you mean 'not young'? If something happens to you, your father will go crazy," Lin Xiuxiu said with a smile. "Alright, if you agree, then prepare to set off tomorrow."

But before that, you need to go to the Seeking Immortal Continent with your mother.

"Seeking Immortal Continent?"

"Yes, that Green Bamboo Lady invites you. There are two invitations in total. The other one is for Jiang Lin, but Jiang Lin is no longer here." With that, Lin Xiuxiu handed the envelope in her arms to her daughter, and then drifted away.

On the mountain peak, Lin Qingwan read the scroll made of Emerald Bamboo.

Opening the Bamboo Slip, the young woman's beautiful brows furrowed slightly as she looked at the invitation she had given to Little Lin.

Green Bamboo Lady was the most elegant noblewoman in the entire Vast and Righteous World. It was said that after her beloved passed away, she lived in the Azure Bamboo Forest and never came out, nor had she ever seen any man.

But now, the letter from Green Bamboo Lady inviting Little Lin is sent at a different time than his own.

In other words... a one-on-one meeting...

A noblewoman who has been single for thousands of years wants to meet her Little Lin alone!

They even brazenly sent it to the Sword Sect!

Click...

With a crisp sound, the bamboo scroll in the girl's hand cracked open.

"Smack!"

With another crisp sound, the Bamboo Slip slip in the girl's hand, which she had entrusted to Jiang Lin, shattered instantly and scattered among the mountains and rivers.

The girl took out the pillow that Jiang Lin on from her Storage Bag, hugged it to her chest, and buried her face in it, taking a deep breath.

Her beautiful eyes held a kind and gentle expression...

"Little Lin, you definitely won't have anything to do with that Green Bamboo, right?"

Lin Qingwan gently stroked the pillow with her slender hand, as if she were stroking Jiang Lin's head...

"Hiss~~~~"

At the same time, the unconscious Jiang Lin felt a chill run down his spine!

I woke up suddenly!

Jiang Lin touched his neck.

"Wait? Why would I touch my neck for no reason?"

Jiang Lin lowered his hand, stood up, and looked around.

Where is this?

Jiang Lin was surrounded by a vast world.

Azure waters and verdant mountains, a cloudless sky, two Spirit Deer playing Animal World, and several lions yawning in the distance. Not far away, a dog named Wang Cai bit a white wolf, then turned and ran away—how exciting!

In short, it was a vast grassland! It felt like being in Africa. Although Jiang Lin had never been to Africa, he had seen Animal World on TV.

"Hey, Zhen Xian, wake up."

"Zheng? Get up, or that male lion will challenge you to a fencing match."

Looking at Zhen Xian and Zheng beside him, Jiang Lin patted their faces.

And you know what? When Jiang Lin patted Zheng's face, it was surprisingly smooth and delicate! Just like a woman's face!

To make a comparison, Jiang Lin deliberately took a few more photos.

Finally, he looked at Zheng, who was already lying unconscious on his side.

Zheng, who fainted in the reclining posture of Imperial Concubine, actually had a rather exquisite figure!

"No way! It can't really be another girl, can it?!"

Swallowing hard, just as Jiang Lin picked up a twig to poke his pectoral muscles, Zheng slowly opened his eyes.

The two looked at each other, the branch Jiang Lin was holding still on his chest.

For a moment, the scene became extremely awkward...
