Chapter 409: Si Jins Return 4

Si Jin hugged Qi Qingyao and acted like a child. I know someone wants to kill you, but Grandpa said you wouldnt be in any danger, so thats why I never came back.

Qi Qingyao let go of him, and asked, Are you hurt? Have you been recuperating well?

When Jiang Yeqian saw the two finally let go of each other, his expression improved.

Si Jin pouted, feeling embarra.s.sed, My wounds had healed up really fast! I hadnt just been recuperating. I didnt come back for so long because Grandpa said I was really stupid for having been caught by the summoning array. Hes been teaching me about summoning arrays all this time, and I was learning how to break them and deploy them.

How much have you learned? Qi Qingyao asked.

Li Ruoxuans summoning array definitely wont be able to trap me next time!

Si Jin glanced at Li Ruoxuan pointedly and then said, Ill be able to lay an array on this house in the future as well!

How awesome. Qi Qingyao was so surprised her jaw almost hit the ground.

Li Ruoxuan, Had he learned most of the arrays in such a short time? How was that possible? Could this kid be a level above a genius?

Pang Juan and Gongsun She had locked their gazes on the boy ever since he entered the house. The two were quite confused because they could not sense any powerful aura from this young man. It rendered Pang Juan very puzzled. This is the young grand master?

Qi Qingyao was suddenly stunned. Only then did she remember the situation she was currently in. She quickly said, Let me introduce him to everyone first.

She pulled Si Jins hand and pointed at the two individuals there.

This is the grand master Pang Juan from Daliang City of Eastern Ling, and that is Mr. Gongsun She from Damings Cangjing Lake.

Oh.

Si Jins gaze was calm as he shook his head. I dont know them.

Pang Juan,

Gongsun She,

The two old men simultaneously thought, We wont argue with a kid whos just been promoted to grand master yet doesnt recognize his seniors!

Just at the right moment, Lu Yan said, They insist that Qi Qingyao is useful to grand masters, saying that she can help them break through. They want to take her away!

Si Jins expression suddenly changed, the aura in his body growing extremely sinister and ruthless, as well as somewhat eccentric.

It was as if a usually docile child had suddenly turned into a hedgehog.

Pang Juan and Gongsun She had clearly sensed that the youth did not have the aura of a grand master, but it was undoubtedly that the surrounding air had changed.

A powerful killing intent coursed through the air as if it could wipe out everything at any time.

Do you want to go out and fight? Si Jins gaze was like a cheetahs, staring at the two old men fixedly.

Qi Qingyao asked nervously, Are you confident about this?

Pang Juan said with much disdain, Brat!! Youre just a spring chicken whos recently entered the realm of a grand master. You really want to make enemies of us?

Gongsun She stood up. Exuding an in it to win it aura, he said heavily, If both of us were to work together, youd undoubtedly die.

Si Jin pursed his lips. Obstinance and unruliness at the corners of his lips, he said, I only lost last time because I had no experience, which made me fall victim to the array. But arrays cant hold me anymore. If I rely solely on strength, I dont see how Im ever going to lose.

Pang Juan sneered, Winning against one of us will already be a challenge. You really believe in yourself so much that you think you can win against two of us at once?

Si Jin! Qi Qingyao pulled at the hem of his clothes. When the youth turned to look at her, she reminded him, You cant be too confident in yourself.

Si Jins gaze instantly turned soft and cute when he turned back to look at her. The sinisterness and ruthlessness, as well as his irritability, still remained, though. Si Jin caressed Qi Qingyaos face and even pecked her ear. Qi Qingyao, who had just been kissed, was stunned. The young man leaned into her ear and said in an ambiguous tone, Sister, I said Ill protect you forever, so I know I have the ability to protect you! I have spent so long studying arrays just so I could defend you if the time came.

When Qi Qingyao returned to her senses, she sternly said, Up against two at once? Can you do that? I dont want you to get hurt.

Si Jins mouth curved into a smile. If I cant go up against these two old men, how can I protect Sister in the future? There was a trace of evil in his smile.

Qi Qingyao thought she was hallucinating.

She rubbed her eyes.

Li Ruoxuan did not miss the evil in the youths eyes. He felt like this youth was somehow different from when they had met before. He realized that he would be killed the moment he made a misstep, so he immediately bowed and clasped his fists, saying, Si Jin, I apologize to you.

There was no shame in apologizing to a grand master.

Qi Qingyao was taken aback. She laughed wildly and then said, Hes scared of dying! Thats why hes sucking up and apologizing. The State Preceptor is so shameless.

Si Jin calmly looked at the apologizing Li Ruoxuan and forced himself to say, Hes the State Preceptor of Northern Liang. Ive blinded one of his eyes, and its also because of him that I discovered my weakness with arrays. So Im quite grateful to him.

When Li Ruoxuan heard the first half of what Si Jin had to say, his back felt cold.

After hearing the second half, he felt relieved instead.

Jiang Yeqian sat still and did not move. He scrutinized Si Jin a little, thinking about how the boy had changed so much in such little time!
