I'm About to Die, Can't I Buff My Junior Sister's Strength?

281: I can also be your junior sister.”You become my Revered Master, and I’ll do whatever you tell me to do!”

”How about it?” Sword Elder gazed at Shen Nian, smiling, with a shameless expression, his eyes revealing a hint of confidence.

He couldn’t think of any reason for Shen Nian to refuse a Disciple at the Hedao stage.

After seeing Shen Nian’s Prodigy-level talent, he had long since been convinced by him. From wanting to take him as a Disciple at the beginning to the current role reversal, he had never heard of such a speed of comprehending the Dao.

Besides, he is the Head of the Shen Family; it wouldn’t be too embarrassing to take him as a Revered Master!

As long as he can give me some pointers on the Nine Swords, I might have a chance to comprehend the intent of the Peak, and perhaps live a few more years...

As soon as these words were spoken, the air suddenly went quiet.

Jiang Churan couldn’t help but take a few extra looks at Sword Elder.

”Heh, this old man’s plan is quite calculating,” Nine Tribulations Sword Spirit chuckled.

”Sword Mother, isn’t this Sword Elder at the Hedao stage? And his seniority is so high, shouldn’t Senior Brother be the one benefiting more?” Jiang Churan asked, somewhat confused.

”Benefiting?”

”With your Senior Brother’s talent, he will surely become a Peak existence under the stars in the future. Only those Prodigies are worthy of being his Disciples. This old man at best only has the advantage of living a long time; his talent is just too average. He isn’t qualified...” Nine Tribulations Sword Spirit said.

Just then.

”I do not take Disciples.” Shen Nian first gave Sword Elder a strange look, then softly refused.

”Ah?”

”Do you want to reconsider?”

”This old man is just a bit old, but I can still learn!”

”Hedao, you know! There aren’t many in these Five Domains. Could Emperor Shen think about it again?”

Sword Elder immediately leaned in and spoke repeatedly, his face full of fawning smiles.

Shen Nian couldn’t be bothered to answer him, instead turning to leave. He left behind one sentence before his figure disappeared from the spot.

”Take good care of her.”

”Uh...” Sword Elder looked at the place where Shen Nian had disappeared, shook his head helplessly, and sighed: ”Sigh, it is fate...”

At the same time, he was also a bit puzzled in his heart.

”Where is he planning to take the Old Ancestor?”

Beside him, Jiang Churan asked cautiously: ”Senior, would you like to eat?”

”Little girl, didn’t you hear what your Senior Brother said? Comprehend the sword first!”

At the same time.

Outside the Sword Mausoleum.

It was full of figures.

The Elders of the Great Evolution Sword Sect had all arrived, and standing at the very front were Jun Ruyan and her Revered Master, Lin Feng.

At this very moment, the atmosphere was extremely tense and heavy, with everyone staring at the entrance of the Sword Mausoleum.

The next second.

The space rippled and gradually became illusory.

Two figures walked out from within, one behind the other, the latter hiding behind the former with her head bowed tightly.

”Greetings...”

Lin Feng was about to bow deeply, but immediately froze, seeing Shen Nian taking the Woman in Green Robes and walking through the air, disappearing into the horizon in an instant...

”Where is he taking the Old Ancestor??” Lin Feng said anxiously.

Jun Ruyan thought for a moment and said: ”Revered Master, don’t be anxious. The Old Ancestor’s cultivation is profound; it’s hard for anyone in the entire Human Race to hurt her. Moreover, Emperor Shen is the Head of the Shen Family, and the Old Ancestor has long-standing ties with the Shen Family, so there is no need to worry too much...”

”I’m not worried about the Old Ancestor’s safety!”

”I’m afraid the Old Ancestor will be deceived!”

”You don’t know, the Shen Family has a lot of scumbags!” Lin Feng said, gritting his teeth.

”(⊙﹏⊙) This...” Jun Ruyan was stunned for a moment, then added: ”It shouldn’t be that bad, right? Isn’t the age gap between Emperor Shen and the Old Ancestor a bit too large...”

Lin Feng, however, felt that something was wrong the more he thought about it.

”No!”

”I must go to the Shen Family!”

After saying this, Lin Feng turned around, tore open the space, and stepped into it.

”Revered Master...!!!” Before Jun Ruyan could even shout, Lin Feng had already disappeared, leaving only the gradually closing space barrier.

At this time.

The Elders of the Great Evolution Sword Sect standing around looked at each other, all of them looking bewildered.

”Everyone withdraw. No one is to spread word of today’s events!” Jun Ruyan said with a stern expression.

”Yes, Sect Master!”

”Sect Master, the woman brought by Emperor Shen is still inside the Sword Mausoleum, what should we do?”

”It’s fine, just let her comprehend the sword. Notify her when the time is almost up.”

”Yes!”

...

One hundred thousand li away from the Great Evolution Sword Sect, in mid-air.

”I will send you to the Shen Family; no one will disturb you there.” Shen Nian stood with his hands behind his back and spoke softly.

Upon hearing this, a hint of panic flashed in Jun Fengyan’s eyes as she asked: ”Then... then what about you...”

The Baize in her arms had a look of contemplation in its eyes.

No!

We can’t waste time like this!

We must restore Revered Master’s cultivation as soon as possible!

No one dares to gamble on when Candle Nine Nethers will discover Jun Fengyan. There is no existence on the Fourth Star that can contend with this Peak Ancient Realm demon!

However, he knew the Revered Master’s situation too well; if they acted alone, they wouldn’t be able to do anything!

The best situation is to follow Shen Nian!

”I am going to the Heavenly Abyss for a period of time.”

Shen Nian answered without any concealment.

Everything that needed to be prepared was mostly ready; it was time to go to the Heavenly Abyss to harvest the crop.

Moreover, he received news that Xiao Qinger had also run off to the Heavenly Abyss, so it was a good time to go see that girl.

”I want to go with you!” Jun Fengyan immediately said.

Shen Nian turned his gaze to her and asked: ”Why?”

”I... I don’t want to stay in a strange place, and you promised to protect me, so I have to follow you...” Jun Fengyan said, biting her lip, her eyes filled with a hint of panic. She tried her best to find reasons to continue following Shen Nian.

Because she actually felt that being by his side made her heart feel inexplicably much calmer, a situation she had never encountered since she could remember.

Especially when holding onto him, it made Jun Fengyan feel inexplicably comfortable and absolutely at ease, as if she had known him a very, very long time ago.

This was the first time she had such a feeling for a stranger!

Even Shen Qiong, who had saved her life back then, hadn’t reached this level!

Therefore, having to part with Shen Nian, she was already extremely lacking in a sense of security, and furthermore, she didn’t know how to face the people of the Shen Family. She couldn’t possibly avoid contact with people forever after coming out this time; if that were the case, she might as well not have come out.

Shen Nian looked at Jun Fengyan with a hint of surprise.

If he remembered correctly, it seemed that in the Ninth Stele World before, Jun Fengyan’s attitude toward him was not like this.

Could it be because of his Second Ancestor?

”The Shen Family is one of the safest places for the Human Race. Following me is instead fraught with danger, and I cannot look after you at all times...”

After hearing Shen Nian’s voice, Jun Fengyan didn’t speak, just stood in mid-air like that.

She thought of Shen Nian’s previous attitude and words toward the Woman in White Robes, telling her to come find him after she finished comprehending the sword.

After a moment of silence.

”Is it because I have no relationship with you that you are unwilling to take me with you?”

Hearing the words that suddenly popped out of Jun Fengyan, Shen Nian couldn’t help but be stunned.

What is this?

Why is her train of thought so novel?

”What is your relationship with that Woman in White Robes from just now? Can you tell me?” Jun Fengyan asked, keeping her head down.

Shen Nian frowned slightly, a bit confused about what this woman was trying to do and what she was talking about. But thinking that his relationship with Jiang Churan was not some shameful secret, he answered:

”She is my Junior Sister.”

As soon as these words were spoken, Jun Fengyan stammered: ”I... I... I can also be your Junior Sister.”
