One Day, Sooner or Later

Inside the Sword Cave, Jiang Lin, carrying Tian Fang on his back, continued to advance deeper into the cave.

Within this sword cave, everything seemed to reach its limit, and no matter how far one went, there was no end in sight.

On Jiang Lin's back, Tian Fang placed her hands in front of her, between her chest and Jiang Lin's back, trying to minimize contact.

Despite this, Tian Fang's cheeks still flushed slightly as her legs were being hugged.

This was the first time she had ever been so close to a man; before this, he had even touched her foot!

Even before that, back in the Dream-Eating Palace Small World, he punched his own bathtub to pieces...

As she thought about it, Tian Fang's cheeks turned even redder, and she even had the urge to kill Jiang Lin out of shame so that no one would know about her dark past.

"Tian Fang, do you know? In the Immortal Seeking Immortal Continent of the Vast and Righteous World, there is a Cherry Blossom Country. Their national tree is the cherry blossom, which is what you Demon Race World call the Maiden Tree."

Jiang Lin, who had never forgotten the system's mission, started spouting nonsense.

What exactly are you trying to say?

"I don't understand what this guy is trying to say Tian Fang asked.

"Actually... cherry blossoms fall at a speed of five centimeters per second, and I've heard that the distance between our hearts is only five centimeters..."

"The distance between hearts?"

Tian Fang looked down at her neck, though she didn't know what a "centimeter" or a "second" was.

But she knew how fast cherry blossoms fall to the ground; how could hers only fall five centimeters?

Is this guy talking about how small he is?

Tian Fang looked down at her neck again. While it wasn't exactly large, it wasn't small either...

Soon, Tian Fang narrowed his eyes!

She was certain! This suicidal guy was deliberately flirting with her!

"Aaaaaah!!!"

A agonizing scream echoed from within the sword cave.

Jiang Lin, whose hair stood on end Tian Fang the electric shock, turned his head.

Why would you electrocute me for no reason?!

"I'm not young!!!"

"???"

Tian Fang said angrily, leaving Jiang Lin completely bewildered.

However, Jiang Lin still did not give up on his grand strategy.

Although the system told me to manipulate Tian Fang's emotions and do my best to win her over, this damn system didn't even say that I absolutely had to succeed!

So Jiang Lin decided to continue spouting nonsense. With the blessing of the Goddess Fortune necklace, Jiang Lin was confident that he would be able to get through the next two days!

"Tian Fang, you know what? I've noticed you're acting a little strange today?"

"What's so strange?" For some reason, Tian Fang felt that Jiang Lin was talking too much.

"So cute," Jiang Lin Path of Emotion.

"Jiang Dapao, are you looking for death?"

"I was wrong." Jiang Lin chickened out.

Continuing forward, Jiang Lin was accidentally struck by a gust of sword wind, letting out a scream.

"Jiang Lin, are you alright?" Tian Fang was very anxious, perched on Jiang Lin's back. But that sword wind didn't seem that strong. Wasn't this guy Martial Warrior Fifth Realm? What happened?

"Tian Fang, I think I've got something in my eye. Can you take a look?"

"Let me see."

At this moment, Tian Fang was already pressed against Jiang Lin's back, her eyes prying open Jiang Lin's eyelids, looking left and right...

There's nothing there...

"Impossible, it definitely exists."

"Then I'll take another look."

"Did you see that?"

"No."

"You're all I see."

"..."

"Don't hit me, ah! Don't hit me, it hurts..."

Every now and then, something would appear on Jiang Lin's eyes—the mark of Tian Fang's little fist.

Jiang Lin has calmed down and stopped making cheesy pickup lines. After all, cheesy pick-up lines need to be used in moderation, otherwise what if he really pissss off Tian Fang?

However... thinking back to how anxious she looked when she saw me earlier, I have to say, this girl is really quite cute.

Even Jiang Lin couldn't immediately connect her with the legendary, ruthless demon genius.

Similarly, Tian Fang, who had been inexplicably teased twice behind Jiang Lin, also felt her heart race. What had this guy been saying since just now?

If I didn't need to rely on him for support, I would have electrocuted him long ago!

Yes! That's right, it wasn't because I was soft-hearted that I didn't want to electrocute him.

As soon as he leaves this sword cave, I'll make sure he's beheaded!

Actually, I've always had a question.

"Sizzle..."

As soon as Jiang Lin opened his mouth, bolts of lightning appeared in Tian Fang's palm.

"Wait, I'm serious."

Jiang Lin quickly changed his tune, it seemed that Tian Fang had been traumatized by his cheesy pickup lines.

"Speak!" Withdrawing the lightning in her palm, Tian Fang turned her head away Tsundere.

"Why are you collecting so many Demon Core? So many of them are at the Nascent Soul Realm, and some are at the Jade Purity Realm. There aren't many Jade Uncut Demon Race World, are there? Aren't you afraid that your combat strength will be weakened?"

"Hmph, what I do is none of your business."

Behind Jiang Lin, Tian Fang arrogantly raised her chin.

Jiang Lin: "..."

"Even if the Demon Race World and your Vast and Righteous World go to war, those so-called great demons I killed will definitely not go to the front line. On the contrary, it would be good enough if they didn't take the opportunity to cause trouble from behind. So your so-called 'weakened combat power' simply does not exist."

What I'm doing now is using those so-called great demons to hone myself while preparing for the future invasion of the Vast and Righteous World by the Demon Race World!

"Sigh... Attacking the Vast and Righteous World?" Jiang Lin felt a headache just thinking about it. "Why bother... I think that although the two worlds are very different, it wouldn't hurt to sit down and talk."

As Jiang Lin sighed, Tian Fang Jiang Lin at him as if he were an idiot. "Are you kidding me? The Demon Race World and the Vast and Righteous World can only be discussed on the battlefield."

Jiang Lin: "Then why did you push me away back then?"

"I..."

Recalling the scene in the cave, Tian Fang bit her lip lightly.

When the two swordsmen who had transformed from the lake water attacked her and him, she instinctively pushed him away, and afterwards Tian Fang remember why she had done it.

But by the time I realized it, I had already done it.

"Tian Fang? Tian Fang girl?"

"It was just an accident! I wasn't worried about you getting stabbed to death by those Famous Swords!"

Tian Fang blushed slightly when Jiang Lin called her name softly. Her Tsundere tone made Jiang Lin's heart flutter. This girl was just too cute.

However, Jiang Lin didn't plan to press his advantage any further. Jiang Lin felt that he had already done his best to complete the tasks assigned by the system.

A silence fell between them.

After a long while, perhaps thinking of something, Tian Fang slowly spoke:

"Jiang Dapao, sooner or later, we will be standing on the battlefield."

Jiang Lin forcefully pulled her against his back, gripping her shapely thighs tightly.

"Oh..."
