Chapter 286 - Aren’t We Siblings? (1/2)

Jin Ling left the hall but naturally, he didn't leave the estate immediately. Instead, he had a look around and tried to find that sister-in-law of his nephew. It was just … the girl seemed to have vanished. He had already circled the whole estate twice but he couldn't find her. In fact, even when he used his senses to explore the estate he could only feel two other people inside, one of them being his nephew and the other one being his nephew's wife. That girl wasn't even there.

Jin Ling shook his head. Who knew where that girl had gone to? Ah, being in the mortal realm was really troublesome. If this was his own realm, he could just summon her.

He stopped and looked up at the sky. When had he last needed to do this kind of thing by himself? It had probably been after he returned to the demon realm back then. Mn, thinking about it now … it really brought back bad memories.

He sighed and shook his head. There was no use thinking about it any longer. All of that was in the past. Whatever he did, he wouldn't get the happiness from those early years back. He could only continue on and make sure that he'd achieve one day what his father had wanted him to do. As long as it brought him a bit closer … it was alright.

He left Shen An De's estate but stopped in front of the gate. If he couldn't find that girl, then he should have a look at the other person. After all, he didn't want to have come here in vain.

With a smile, he let more of his aura leak until it even seemed to manifest in the air. As long as Qiu Ling wasn't completely without senses, he'd definitely notice it and hurry over. After a moment, Jin Ling retracted his aura and vanished once more.

In front of the gates of the Alchemy division of the Hei Dian Sect, Qiu Ling's head jerked up. Demonic energy! And not just a bit. This was … This was just like back then in the war.

His gaze wavered. For a moment, he didn't know what to do. Jing Yi was inside bringing those things he had made yesterday to that Senior Martial Brother. He would have the time to go over and take a quick look.

His hands twitched but in the end, he didn't move even an inch. No. His Jing He was still inside. If by any chance, there was more than one demon, wouldn't he be in danger if he went to take a look? It was still better to stay here and guard him.

Not far from him a figure emerged. Qiu Ling whirled around and both of them froze.

Jin Ling gave a hollow laugh. ”Ah, it seems I was careless.” So much for not giving the game away before it was too late. It seemed this bastard wasn't as rash anymore as he had been back then. He really had expected him to hurry over there as soon as he noticed the demonic aura.

Qiu Ling narrowed his eyes. So it was this bastard. Why had he come here? It couldn't be that he wanted to personally deal with Jing He, could it?!

Jin Ling slowly walked over, a small smile on his lips. ”Mn, Qiu Ling, who would've thought you'd be here, too?”
