838: Chapter 838 Fellow Disciple Brother 838: Chapter 838 Fellow Disciple Brother After traveling for a while, it was getting dark, and it seed impossible to reach the city gates before they closed, so Jian Shen and Lin Xi decided to spend the night in the mountain forest.
Jian Shen apologized for this, he didn’t an to make Lin Xi endure the hardship of dining in the wind and drinking the dew.
Lin Xi said it was fine, she had experience with camping during sumr camps before, and it felt alright.
Besides, she wasn’t that delicate, she had grown up enduring hardships.
Seeing that Lin Xi didn’t mind, Jian Shen felt a bit relieved inside.
He had been really worried that Lin Xi would get angry and then bla him for being a man without a plan, leading to this situation.
However, Jian Shen was puzzled and asked what a sumr camp was.
Lin Xi realized she had misspoken, imdiately explaining that it was a term from a foreign land, sothing she had just learned, and having stayed in foreign territories for a while, she herself felt that her way of speaking had changed.
Although Jian Shen thought Lin Xi seed a bit flustered while explaining, he didn’t get too suspicious and let it go.
When night fell, and a cool breeze ca with it, a campfire blazed in the mountain forest, where Jian Shen and Lin Xi ward themselves around it.
Sitting face to face, they chatted while basking in the fire’s glow.
The reason why Qian Ye and Jian Shen fell in love was the harmony between them.
They enjoyed each other’s company.
Now Lin Xi and Jian Shen were the sa, with endless topics to talk about, such as the schools of Martial Arts with their long histories, those who pretended to be upright, and those so-called highborn sects were not much better.
Even after Lin Xi had modified so stories, presenting them as tales from foreign lands, Jian Shen found them very intriguing.
Suddenly a cold wind blew, Lin Xi sneezed, seeming to feel the chill, she wrapped her clothes tighter around herself.
Seeing this, Jian Shen imdiately ca over to Lin Xi, took off his coat, and draped it over her shoulders.
This gesture filled Lin Xi’s heart with warmth, and she unwittingly recalled the beautiful mories between Qian Ye and Jian Shen from a past life.
Jian Shen just happened to catch the look in Lin Xi’s eyes, and his heart pounded at once, feeling quite embarrassed.
He quickly averted his gaze, looking up at the myriad stars in the sky and changing the subject, “How beautiful the night sky is today.”
“Yes, it’s really beautiful,” Lin Xi said while resting her head on Jian Shen’s arm with a slight smile on her lips.
Jian Shen’s heartbeat quickened even more.
He didn’t understand what was happening to him.
He could face the encirclent of heroes without frowning, laugh heartily, and draw his sword to confront them, but he couldn’t deal with this kind of sentintal situation.
This feeling was too wonderful, like a return to the past, and summoning his courage, Jian Shen took Lin Xi’s hand.
In an instant, like a stream of warmth, it flowed through the hearts of both, dispelling much of the night’s chill.
They didn’t speak, but a multitude of unsaid words seed to pass between them through this warmth.
Just at that mont, an unusual sound broke the peace, coming from the forest, imdiately putting Jian Shen on alert.
He let go of Lin Xi’s hand, stood up abruptly, and stared into the dark woods, solemnly saying, “Who is it, co out.”
Lin Xi also got tense, ready to cast a spell, thinking if they were faced with a horde of vampires, the first thing to do would be to run.
After a mont, a sword-carrying man erged, his body stained with blood, his face bearing the terror of a narrow escape.
Upon seeing Jian Shen, disbelief spread across his face, “Brother, is it really you?”
“Junior brother!” Jian Shen was surprised too, he didn’t expect to run into an acquaintance in such a desolate place.
The newcor was a disciple of the Xuanjian Sect nad Lu Bei, he was from the sa ntor as Jian Shen.
In Xuanjian Sect, he had a good relationship with Jian Shen.
Even after Jian Shen was expelled from the sect and beca an enemy of the entire Martial Arts community, he still secretly maintained contact with Jian Shen.
“Senior brother, it really is you, it really is you.” Lu Bei walked over quickly and embraced Jian Shen tightly, a gesture that made Lin Xi very worried.
If Lu Bei intended to harm Jian Shen, now would be an easy chance.
Lin Xi secretly blad Jian Shen for being too careless, allowing Lu Bei to get so close so easily.
However, the reality proved Jian Shen’s trust in Lu Bei, who did not take the opportunity to harm Jian Shen; he even wept with joy.
“What’s wrong?
A big man like you crying like this, tell , what exactly has happened?” Jian Shen, seeing the wounds and blood stains on Lu Bei, knew he had been through a battle.
Feeling guilty, Lu Bei said, “Senior brother, believe , I’m not afraid of death, I’m not that kind of person, but the enemy was too brutal, my staying there was useless.”
“Okay, I believe you, now tell quickly,” Jian Shen urged Lu Bei impatiently.
It turned out that the people from Xuanjian Sect had discovered the long-lost traces of the Devil Cult and also located where the Devil Incarnate was in seclusion.
Consequently, over a hundred mbers of Xuanjian Sect, along with so other orthodox sects of Martial Arts, banded together to attack.
However, to everyone’s surprise, the Devil Incarnate, who had been hounded by the various sects a year ago, had made incredible progress in his Martial Arts.
His power had beco unbelievably strong, and his speed now unmatched; he slaughtered the Xuanjian Sect and other orthodox sects, leaving them in complete disarray.
Lu Bei knew they were no match, and many people fled; he fled as well.
Having found out what happened, Jian Shen sighed profoundly and then inquired about several people from Xuanjian Sect, only to learn from Lu Bei that they had all died at the hands of the Devil Incarnate.
Moreover, the leader of Xuanjian Sect had not participated in the fight.
The lead had been taken by Jian Shen’s ntor, who was the highest in Martial Arts amongst the orthodox practitioners present.
Sadly, even he was defeated by the Devil Incarnate.
Knowing that his ntor was in trouble, Jian Shen imdiately inquired about the situation, but Lu Bei said it was too chaotic at the ti and he was too busy fleeing to notice.
However, given the Devil Incarnate’s brutal nature, the survival of those who fell into his hands was unlikely.
“Damn!” Jian Shen was furious.
He asked Lu Bei to point out the direction; he wanted to et the Devil Incarnate and avenge his brothers and ntor.
But Lu Bei tried to persuade him otherwise, “Senior brother, don’t go.
That Devil Incarnate is not what he used to be.
He defeated your ntor in just ten moves; you are no match for him.”
“What?
Ten moves?
Are you serious?” Jian Shen couldn’t believe it; although he had surpassed his ntor long ago, defeating his ntor within ten moves was sothing he absolutely couldn’t do.
Lu Bei nodded, this was sothing he had witnessed with his own eyes.
He couldn’t believe it either, but the Devil Incarnate’s Martial Arts had improved incredibly fast.
Just a year ago, he was not even ranked among the top hundred in Martial Arts, and now he might well be invincible in the whole world.
Yet Jian Shen still insisted on eting this Devil Incarnate.
It wasn’t out of a sense of justice, nor was it competitiveness, but rather a sentint of gratitude.
Without his ntor’s decade of teaching, there would be no Jian Shen today,
