Chapter 34

Chapter 34

"May I have your permission to take Shiyin away?" After explaining his reasons, Li Shiwen asked at last.

"Ha ha..." Qin Ran laughed and looked at Li Shiwen, shaking his head, "If the Mountain Range is really going to have something big happen, then nowhere in the North Chu Kingdom would be safer than the Sword Sect. So where are you going to take Shiyin?"

Li Shiwen lowered his head without trying to hide it from Qin Ran.

"As for the first and second reasons, it is not my place to interfere..." Li Shiwen wanted to take Li Shiyin somewhere safe, but Qin Ran was too lazy to care. Stroking the cat, he laughed, "So whether Shiyin stays or leaves, you’ll have to ask her yourself."

"Ask Shiyin herself?" Li Shiwen laughed. He saw how much effort Qin Ran had spent on Shiyin and thought that Qin Ran would definitely not allow him to take Shiyin away. But unexpectedly, Qin Ran was so easy to talk to.

From his perspective, Li Shiyin was his younger sister, very young and simple-minded, unable to discern pros and cons, and could not decide such a big matter for herself. For Qin Ran to say this, it was almost telling him that he could take Shiyin away.

So Li Shiwen stood up. Without asking Li Shiyin, he saluted Qin Ran and said with a smile, "Then thank you for taking care of Shiyin these days. You can make a list of expenses for Shiyin and send it to the garrison of the Heavenly Strategy Army outside the Mountain Range. I will provide compensation."

"Hmm?" Qin Ran was puzzled in his heart. Why didn't this guy even ask her? But his face still had a faint smile, as if he had everything under control.

Li Shiwen nodded to him, pulled Li Shiyin up and said, "Shiyin, let's go home now..."

He pulled Li Shiyin along but couldn't move her. He pulled harder but Li Shiyin didn't budge at all. He looked back at Li Shiyin, helplessly said, "Shiyin, be obedient."

Li Shiyin looked at him and shook her head. "Brother, I'm not going back!"

"What are you talking about?" Li Shiwen said with a smile. "Don't be unreasonable. Mother misses you very much..."

"I will go back, but not now." Li Shiyin replied.

To say that Li Shiyin was stupid was only because she was simple, not because she really had problems with her brain. She was not only smart, but also inherited the fine qualities of their Li family, tough and unyielding... In short, she would not easily change her mind about something once she decided on it.

Li Shiwen knew his sister well. Hearing Li Shiyin say this, the smile on his face disappeared little by little. He looked at Li Shiyin and asked solemnly, "You really won't go back?"

"I won't go back!" Li Shiyin answered very decisively.

Originally, Li Shiwen, being a man, was much taller and stronger. His martial arts skills were indeed more refined than Li Shiyin's. He had always let Li Shiyin hit him. But...times had changed. Although Li Shiyin had not yet learned any mystic arts, her physical fitness was no longer on the same level as Li Shiwen's.

After exchanging moves twice, they finally collided fists.

Li Shiyin rushed forward with a punch, throwing a fist at Li Shiwen's face. Li Shiwen did not dodge. He put both hands forward to block Li Shiyin's punch, planning to grab her after blocking this punch. This move worked very well on the reckless and impulsive Li Shiyin.

Unexpectedly, when Li Shiyin's punch came...

"Bang!"

Li Shiwen only felt as if he had been hit by a bull, completely failing to block it. He staggered back several steps with his chest wide open!

"Hahaha, brother, you're finished!" Li Shiyin laughed gleefully. She clenched her little fists and rushed forward, ramming into Li Shiwen's arms. Then fists rained down as she vented all the pent-up frustration from being beaten up by Li Shiwen over the past decade, not caring whether it was the nose, eyes, chest or ribs.

She only stopped when she felt she had enough and stood up arrogantly looking down at Li Shiwen's bruised and swollen face. Of course she didn't go all out since he was her brother after all, but it was enough to make Li Shiwen suffer for several days.

Seeing they had finished fighting, Qin Ran walked over, took out a porcelain bottle from his cosmic bag, squatted down and handed it to Li Shiwen, saying, "Blood Invigorating Muscle Pills, treats physical injuries. One pill is enough. This bottle is a gift for you."

Lying on the ground, Li Shiwen's hands trembled as he took the bottle. He clumsily shook out a pill and barely managed to put it in his mouth.

He looked so pathetic, but Qin Ran and Li Shiyin just watched without intention of helping him.

The efficacy of the pill was extremely fast. Li Shiwen's injuries healed almost visibly. But such rapid recovery was also accompanied by terrible pain. Even the iron-tough Li Shiwen couldn't help groaning.

"Although these ordinary pills are simple to make, a pill can still sell for two spirit stones. This bottle contains ten pills. As a gift upon our first meeting, it doesn't degrade you. In the mortal world, you know better than me the value of miraculous medicine and stones."

"Before building her foundation, Shiyin's medicinal baths cost about three hundred spirit stones each time, and she soaked for ten consecutive days; after building her foundation, each bath is nine hundred spirit stones, and she has already soaked for five days. This doesn't even include the cost of prescriptions and effort for making the medicinal bath."

He looked at Li Shiwen on the ground and shook his head with a laugh, "Don't feel bad about losing to Shiyin's punch worth over ten thousand spirit stones."

As Li Shiwen's injuries gradually healed, he silently looked up at Qin Ran and suddenly understood - his sister's master had a wicked heart, inside and out...

He was just a small general of the mortal world. He was no match for their cultivators. He might as well leave early.The initial posting of this chapter occurred via N0v3l.B11n.
