Chapter 1028 - A Change of Topic (1/2)
Xin Lan stared dumbfounded at the child that was extending his arms in his direction. What was that fallen god's reincarnation doing here?! Even though his Master had just said that he wanted to thank him when all of this was over, that didn't mean that he actually needed to be here. Especially since his Master didn't know just who he was. Well, even if he did, it wouldn't matter since Xiang Yu couldn't remember his actual life. He was just a mortal boy right now.
Xin Lan held his forehead, regretting that he hadn't been more careful when he came in. Now, this kind of thing would actually be exposed in front of his Master.
Next to him, Jinde already chuckled. ”No need to be shy. I already heard before that you promised to marry him. I really wonder how you came up with that.” There was an amused smile playing around his lips while he looked at Xin Lan. Obviously, he enjoyed his plight thoroughly.
Xin Lan pressed his lips together tightly, refusing to say anything. Whatever he said right now, he would be on the losing end anyway. He might as well keep quiet and leave his Master his own imagination.
Meanwhile, Sect Master Fei came over, looking at Xin Lan with a thoughtful expression. She knew pretty well that he probably had no intention at all to marry her disciple when he had grown up. He had only said that at that moment so he could get rid of the child.
It was a pity for Hua Lin Yu but she couldn't say that it was much of a surprise. After all, this man was a dragon and probably not just anybody when he was acquainted with this person that their Jian Yi Sect's Grandmaster had married. After all, that person in turn had some dealings with the dragon king. It stood to reason that other people he was acquainted with might be of similarly special status.
”So we meet again.”
Xin Lan ignored the child on her arms and nodded. He didn't bother to say anything though and instead turned back to his Master. Even though he would have liked this to happen more privately, it was still best to turn his Master's attention to something else. ”I brought something for you.” He once again took out something from his spatial ring and handed it over to Jinde.
It was a small bag with a seal on top that would allow people to store something inside. Contrary to a spatial ring, it wouldn't require any spiritual energy to open it though. For somebody like Jinde who needed to make sure that he used every last bit of spiritual energy that he recovered to heal his own soul, this definitely was something good.
”Oh? Was this bag the reason you wanted to come over?” He didn't really think so. After all, while it was useful, these bags weren't anything special. Even the humans had things like this.
Xin Lan shook his head and lightly squeezed Jinde's hand. ”It's not about the bag but about what is inside. I'm pretty sure that you will like this.”
