Lin Yu shook his head. "Forget it. You should take it back. You'll need it more than me in the future. After all, you've never been safe before. Even if there's no danger, you'll still need to create some."
After saying that, he pushed the Nine Stars Sword towards Qin Shi.
"You're mocking me."
Qin Shi smiled bitterly, but he didn't reach out to take it. "Why are you being so polite with me? Since you know me, you should know that even if I encounter danger, it'll be when I'm strong. The Nine Stars Sword is at the peak of the Hundred Tides Stage. However, compared to the people I'm going to meet, he's nothing. He can't even be a meat shield. It's a waste for me to bring him along. I'll leave him with you. Then, help me bring glory to Chi Yan and the Qin Sect."
Lin Yu hesitated for a moment. This time, he didn't refuse because he knew that Qin Shi was right. Compared to the eight regions, a Heaven Scale Stage wasn't enough.
He narrowed his eyes and put his hand back into his pocket. "Alright, don't worry. Chi Yan has me, and the Qin Sect has me. You don't need to worry. I've said it before. One day, you'll realize that you're not fighting alone. Behind you, there'll be an extremely strong force that'll always be your strong shield."
Qin Shi smiled. He couldn't wait to see that scene. He couldn't help but look forward to it. Unknowingly, Zi Lingsha appeared behind him. She looked at Lin Yu with a smile. "Hehe, kid, you're the young prince of Chi Yan, right?"
"You're …?" Lin Yu asked.
"Me? Don't worry about me. I'm considered one of your people. Since he gave you a gift, I'll give you one too. You might need it in the future." Zi Lingsha rubbed her hands and handed a bottle of white powder to Lin Yu.
"This is?"
Lin Yu was stunned while Qin Shi could not help but frown. Although he had never seen this powder before, he could tell from its aura that Zi Lingsha had used this poison to control the Han Family.
Thinking of this, Qin Shi looked at Zi Lingsha gratefully, and then said to Lin Yu, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and take it. This is a treasure. Even if a Domain Realm appears, this thing can protect Chi Yan once."
"Domain?" Lin Yu was shocked.
Qin Shi smiled and nodded. "You'll understand after I explain it to you. The person in front of you is the Sky Poison Woman who was rumored to be a god in the Crimson Flame Sect."
"Sky Poison Woman?"
Lin Yu came to a sudden realization. His first action was to hurriedly throw the bottle of powder in his hand to Qin Shi with a vigilant look on his face.
Seeing this, Qin Shi was helpless. "What are you doing?"
"The Sky Poison Woman. That's something that even Hua Ling feared back then. Who knows what this damned thing is. If I accidentally come into contact with it, I'll definitely die young." Lin Yu said carefully.
Zi Lingsha smiled like a silver bell. "Hehe, don't worry. This poison is called 'Round Sky Square Earth'. It's a very special poison. I added Chi Yan's local energy into it. As long as you're born in the Hundred Tides, you won't be affected by this poison. After all, I believe that no one in the Hundred Tides can threaten Chi Yan with that Heaven Fate Realm puppet. Therefore, this poison is prepared for invaders."
"Really?"
Lin Yu and Lin Yu were both shocked.
Zi Lingsha pursed her lips and gestured with her hand. "If you don't believe me, why don't you try it yourself?"
Hearing this, Lin Yu received the bottle with a skeptical look. He took out a bit of the white powder, dipped it into his hand, and lightly sniffed it. After a while, he didn't feel any discomfort in his body. Only then did he let out a sigh of relief and gratefully said to Ziling Sha: "Then, I will first thank the Sky Poison Woman."
"Please call me Zi Lingsha. I don't like that name!" Zi Lingsha snorted.
Lin Yu was embarrassed. He hurriedly changed the way he addressed her. "Zi Lingsha."
After handing over the Nine Stars to Lin Yu, Qin Shi's heart also calmed down. He had finally done what he had promised. Now, he could wait in Scarlet Flame Sect in peace. After a month, he would rush to the center of the eight domains for the God's Realm Sacrifice.
He didn't intend to go to the Sword Sect. After all, once he arrived at the Sword Sect, his hands and feet would be tied. It would be better to stay in Scarlet Flame Sect. Moreover, he also wanted to take this opportunity to accompany Yu Luocha, Jin Yan, and his family. Because he knew that after this time, he didn't know when the next time would be.
He couldn't help but feel his heart become heavy.
Suddenly, a figure appeared behind Qin Shi and patted Qin Shi's shoulder. Qin Shi was startled and fiercely turned around. "It's you?"
"Hehe, who else did you think it would be?"
Haoyue shrugged his shoulders. He was still carrying the exaggeratedly huge Severing Emotion Sword on his back. He unloaded the Severing Emotion Sword and handed it to Qin Shi. "Before, you haven't forgotten what you promised me, right?
I've done what I promised you. Now it's time for you to help me return the sword. "
Qin Shi suddenly realized that he had forgotten that he had promised Haoyue to return the sword.
But after hesitating for a moment, he didn't reach out his hand. This made Haoyue frown. His voice was not very polite. "What, do you want to go back on your word?"
Qin Shi smiled and shook his head. "No, I will definitely do what I promised you. Qin Sect's Sovereign, I never go back on my word. I don't want to break my reputation. But before that, I still think that you should think about it. This sword, I think it should be returned by you."
Hearing this, Haoyue's face obviously changed dramatically. In an instant, it became a lot colder.
Seeing this, Qin Shi added, "Although I don't know what happened between you and the Sword Sect, but there are some things that just running away is useless. There has to be a solution. You have to face it, right?"
"I … …!"
Haoyue clenched his teeth. Obviously, Qin Shi's words had touched the bottom of his heart.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Qin Shi patted him on the shoulder, left a few words, and passed by him. "You are a disciple of the Sword Sect, so you should be clear about the God Realm Sacrifice. I will stay in Chi Yan for another month. One month later, the God Realm Sacrifice will be held. If, at that time, you still want to escape, then you can give me this Severing Emotion Sword. If I can come out of the God Realm Sacrifice alive, I will help you return the sword to the Sword Sect."
"After all, although I don't have any feelings for the Sword Sect, I think the Sword Sect's 18 Guardian Swords shouldn't be in the hands of a person who doesn't even dare to face the past."
"I … …!" Haoyue opened his mouth again.
But this time, Qin Shi didn't give him a chance to continue. "Think about it yourself. I can't help you with this kind of thing, and no one can. Give me an answer in one month."
Then, Qin Shi left, leaving Haoyue alone there. He was numb, and his eyes were empty for a long time.
The banquet lasted until late at night. Later, many people came one after another, including Hua Ling, the Three Pure Elders of the Mystical Temple, the Nangong Family, the Taishi Family, Han Zai, Xiao Tianyue, and many old friends of Qin Shi. Being with this group of people, Qin Shi felt unprecedentedly relaxed. Throughout the night, he emptied himself and drank with this group of friends until dawn.
It wasn't until the next day, when the sun in the east flickered slightly, dispelling the darkness, that the excitement in Desolate Town died down, and everyone left.
Qin Shi inhaled a deep breath of air as he watched those figures leaving. He could not help but feel a sense of loss from the bottom of his heart. That was because only he knew that after this parting, there were many people who did not know how long it would be before they would meet again. A few months, a few years, or even a few decades were all possible.
Suddenly, a gentle hand put a black robe that was sewn and patched on his shoulders. He was startled, feeling the familiar smell between his lips and teeth.
"What? Thinking about leaving again?" Yu Luocha asked in a sweet voice.
Qin Shi nodded his head apologetically. "That's right. I really don't dare to think about this parting. It will take far, far too long."
"Go. Don't be sad, don't be sad, and don't worry about me."
Yu Luocha gently lay on his back. Then, she smiled gently and said, "Shi Tou, do you believe it?
Whether it's you or me, or Xue Xin and Sister Yu, we are all destined to be together. No one can separate us. "
"I always feel that our meeting was arranged by God. Even in our next lives, even if we are reincarnated, you will be a flower and I will be a butterfly. Even if we become ants or beggars, we will still recognize each other in the vast sea of people. Then, we will be together again. Then, we will not be separated again. Do you believe it?"
"I … believe it!"
Qin Shi's black eyes turned red. He wanted to hold this girl in his arms forever, but he knew that he couldn't do it now. Once he did that, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to bear to leave.
However, there was a reason why he had to leave. He couldn't find any excuse for it … because he loved those two women deeply, and they loved him just as much.
"Shi Tou, as long as we continue to believe and believe that we will be together forever, then a short separation will not be scary. On the contrary, it will become our belief and motivation … because a short separation is for us to be together forever, right?"
"Yes, a short separation is for us to be together forever …"
"I will fulfill my promise to you. I will bring them back. When that time comes, we will find a quiet forest and be together forever …!"
"Yes, I believe in you. So, I will never feel lonely. Because you will always be in my heart. Remember, no matter where you are, you will always have me, a woman who loves you, and your child waiting for you here."
Hearing this, Qin Shi couldn't control himself anymore. He hugged Yu Luocha tightly in his arms. In the end, all the words he wanted to say turned into two words.
