Chapter 927: Chapter 313: Achieve Buddhahood Instantly [Two-in-One Unfinished]_2 Chapter 927: Chapter 313: Achieve Buddhahood Instantly [Two-in-One Unfinished]_2 He lowered his head and whispered softly, “I know.”

“With too many thoughts, once you’ve figured them out, just bury them in your heart,” Qi Jianyun sighed and said softly, trying to comfort her.

Qi Rong’er nodded and then lifted her head, her eyes shining brightly, “Uncle, do you think he will… come back?”

“He won’t.” Qi Jianyun sighed again, his heart sinking further.

It might be possible to find out who he was, even quite easily.

The Black Blade was undoubtedly a notorious thief with a heavy toll of lives, a target for the Heavenly Judgment; if that scholar possessed the identity of a Heavenly Judgment assassin, it would be easy to track him down. But because of this, Qi Jianyun was even more apprehensive.

It was better not being able to find out so that his niece might completely lose hope.

His niece’s thoughts and her current state were all obvious to him, but how could he not know that there was no chance between them?

The other person was like a dragon soaring through the skies, while his niece, apart from her decent appearance, had nothing else to speak of…

“Move on!”

On the road that followed, the escorts from the Four Seas Security Bureau were full of spirit, brimming with excitement and looking forward to another chance to fight off robbers.

Until…

Qi Jianyun sought the help of a killer friend from the Heavenly Judge, borrowing his Heavenly Judgment to confirm the situation—

The results of the investigation left all the escorts with their eyes wide and mouths agape, dumbstruck.

“…Target: Black Blade, level, Purple Crystal… Completion agent: Gentle… Serial number…”

Everyone’s eyes fiercely fixated on the words ‘Gentle,’ struggling to breathe as if suffocating.

At that moment, all of them turned their heads simultaneously, their gazes focusing on Qi Rong’er, whose face was flushed with excitement.

Qi Rong’er’s earlier words seemed to echo in their ears again:

“We must not underestimate him, we never even saw him as a real scholar. Maybe, when we encounter a formidable enemy we cannot resist, this scholar will leap forward and wreak havoc. What if he’s the most prominent prince of the Yan State known for his scholarly demeanor, who usually appears weak and bookish? Or perhaps he’s the assassin Gentle in disguise, unwilling to let his fame be overshadowed by that of Prince Wenmo and thus adopting a similar guise to regain momentum…”

In an instant, everyone’s expressions grew even more peculiar…

This wasn’t just speculation on your part; it was a prediction.

A divine prediction!

You’re just too damn accurate!

Qi Rong’er’s eyes darted mischievously, and inexplicably, she felt a sense of pride.

…

By now, Feng Yin had nearly reached the borders of Xianyang, encountering more and more inhabitants as he went.

Along the way, villages and towns appeared every few miles.

Smoke rose everywhere, and the human life was densely packed, filled with the atmosphere of mundane life.

The fields were everywhere, brimming with vitality.

While Yuezhou was still icy cold and desolate, this region already had a touch of warmth, and vitality began to show in the earth.

Walking through the fields, some children were seen running around in light cotton-padded jackets, their faces flushed and heads steaming with heat.

Some children, overheated from too much frolicking, simply opened their jackets to run in the open air.

Then, they would be chased and scolded by adults worried about them catching a cold, and upon being caught, they’d receive a spanking…

Subsequently, cries, scoldings, and the sound of spankings echoed continuously, one after another.

Well, there were also the voices of other children howling and egging them on.

In short, it was full of life’s flavors, utterly real and unsophisticated!

Moreover, what struck Feng Yin most was the mix of scents that wafted to his nose, such as the fresh smell of the countryside, the aroma of crops, diverse food fragrances, the burnt scent of firewood, smoky smells, and various stuffed buns, pastries, meat, and vegetables…

These mingling scents gave Feng Yin a profound feeling of ‘returning to the human world’ as he passed by the villages, stirring subtle but heart-touching sensations within him.

Because this was the life of his previous incarnation.

Watching the laughing children running by, looking at the women waiting at the door for their family to return home, observing the wisps of cooking smoke rising from the rooftops, and seeing the elderly returning from the fields with their farm tools.

All of a sudden, Feng Yin felt as though he had become very distant from the world of mortals.

“I’ve drifted away… drifted away, Feng Yin!”

Feng Yin murmured to himself, “You’re barely a fifth-grade at the Heavenly Level, and you think you’re attending the mortal world’s Feast of Swans… You’re too carried away, seriously too carried away. Remember, you are a socialist youth with five good qualities…”

“You must keep up your ideals, morals, culture, discipline, good looks, grace, depth, strength, knives, and ruthlessness, as a new person with ten qualities.”

“You can’t get carried away!”

“Ptui… Ehmm…”

Feng Ying, nestled in Feng Yin’s arms, suddenly made an ambiguous babyish noise; but then, he reverted to his usual ‘ehmm.’

Instantly, Feng Yin turned his head, picked up Feng Ying by the scruff of his neck from his arms, and looking askance with an attempt at a bossy demeanor, said, “Little guy, I just heard you.”

Feng Ying, being held up like that, was as still as a little rabbit, just gazing up with big innocent eyes and making sounds of aggrieved innocence, “Ehmm? Ehmm? ~”
