Chapter 5214: It was hard for her to refuse.
The sword slave pretended not to see him and continued to stand in front of him with his hunched body.
“Alright, alright. I’ll go back on my own after a few more days of fun. Is that okay? go back and tell them to take care of themselves and not worry so much.” Qi Tian said impatiently.
“Seventh elder, when you crushed the Jade token just now, the family head guessed that you might be in danger. Before this old servant rushed over, the family head specifically warned me.” The sword slave caught something.
“What did he say?” Qi Tian asked.
“The family head said that we must bring seventh elder back no matter what. If seventh elder refuses to obey, we must bring him back even if we have to break his legs.” The sword slave said with a calm expression, but his eyes were fixed on Qi Tian’s legs.
“Tsk …” Qi Tian subconsciously sucked in a breath of cold air and touched his leg.
“He really said that?” Qi Tian asked with uncertainty, his voice trembling.
“Even if this old servant had the gutsiest of guts, I would not dare to lie to the Lord heirloom’s words.” The sword slave said unhurriedly.
“Uh, then I’ll think about it.” Qi Tian was clearly extremely afraid of the clan head as he spoke hesitantly.
“Why don’t you go back? anyway, with your strength, it’s not safe for you to follow us. If anything happens, you’ll be a burden.” Ling Chuxi tried to persuade him.
Her words were not pleasant to hear, but they were the truth. In the past, when he was in the black Zen Supreme residence, it did not matter even if Qi Tian’s strength was a little weak. Now that he had lost the protection of the Supreme residence, it was indeed not safe for him to walk around the Supreme realm with his little strength.
Of course, Ling Chuxi’s words were also a little provocative. Although the sword slave had not overstepped his boundaries so far and had done his part as an old servant, Ling Chuxi could see that he had made up his mind to bring Qi Tian back. If he insisted on not doing so, he might really break his legs.
In the face of such a strong cultivator, Ling Chuxi did not have the ability to protect him. It was better to let him go home obediently.
“En, you’re right. It’s really a burden for me to be with you guys. Forget it, forget it. We’ve had enough fun anyway. Let’s go back.” What surprised Ling Chuxi was that Qi Tian actually did not get angry, nor did he stubbornly argue like a dead duck in the past. Instead, he held his chin and nodded.
He did not know whether it was because he had matured after the drastic changes in the black Zen Supreme residence or because he was comforting himself and climbing down the stairs.
Hearing Qi Tian’s words, the sword slave’s expression was obviously much more relaxed. He had watched Qi Tian grow up, and even with the orders of the master, he could not bear to break his legs. If Qi Tian had not been so concerned about his face and had not pretended to be pitiful and begged, he would not have had the heart to drag him back.
Qi Tian being able to figure it out on his own was, of course, the best result.
“Grandpa sword slave, please wait for a moment. I still have something to do. I’ll be done soon.” Qi Tian said to the sword slave master.
“Go on.” The sword slave nodded.
Qi Tian came to Ling Chuxi’s side and knelt on the ground with a plop.
Ling Chuxi was shocked. She did not know what this fellow was trying to do. Then, she saw him hold a few handfuls of soil and pile them on the ground. He also inserted a few tree branches into the ground.
Ling Chuxi immediately reacted. This fellow wanted to become sworn brothers.
She had also experienced such a thing once in the virtual sky World. However, at that time, Ling Chuxi thought about it again and again but did not make up her mind to die on the same day, same month, and same year as Zhou xueting and the others. In the end, she just brushed it off.
“Chuxi, I’ve been locked up in the clan since I was young and have never left the house before. I don’t have any friends either. I don’t think I’ll have many chances to come out again after returning to the clan this time, let alone have any friends. You’ve been my only friend since I was young. I don’t know when we’ll meet again after we part today. I want to become brothers with you, is that okay?” Qi Tian’s face was full of sincerity as he looked at Ling Chuxi with antic.i.p.ation. There were even traces of tears in his eyes.
Looking at the sincerity, antic.i.p.ation, and almost pleading tears in his eyes, Ling Chuxi found it difficult to refuse.
