258: Confused

"You?"

Chen Baizhe shook her head.

Qin Jiang looked at her small hand placed on the guzheng, and his own palm slowly moved closer.

However, before he could touch it.

The other party withdrew her hand.

Qin Jiang blinked, regretfully withdrew his hand, looked at Chen Baizhe, and said:

"I've looked into you.

All along, people have pursued you, but you rejected them all.

Because in your heart, you already had someone else, a little beggar, oh no, now he should be an old beggar, that's not right either, after so many years, the possibility of him being alive is minuscule."

As his words fell, Chen Baizhe's aura trembled slightly, and her gaze towards Qin Jiang instantly turned colder.

"Perhaps, you don't want to admit it, but in your heart, you must be clear..."

"Shut up!"

Chen Baizhe snapped, staring intently at Qin Jiang, saying word by word:

"He, is still alive!"

"Don't lie to yourself."

Qin Jiang's expression remained unchanged, he stood up, walked around the guzheng, and went behind Chen Baizhe.

He placed his palm on her shoulder.

Chen Baizhe's pretty face turned cold, just as she was about to act, Qin Jiang said indifferently:

"If you don't want the Humanity Sect to suffer, you'd best control your temper."

"Just with you?"

Chen Baizhe trembled slightly, shaking off Qin Jiang's hand.

Qin Jiang smiled, it seemed she was also apprehensive, otherwise, she wouldn't have controlled her strength so weakly.

"You know my identity, perhaps the Qinglian Divine Palace and the Humanity Sect are just evenly matched, but do you know...

Why is Qing Chan willing to be my woman?"

Qin Jiang smiled, and placed his hand on her shoulder again.

Chen Baizhe's delicate brows furrowed slightly, a dignified True Immortal yielding to a Supreme was indeed perplexing.

She took a deep breath and said indifferently:

"No matter what your identity, Fairy Qing Chan may yield to you, but I won't, never will!

Give up."

"Hehe, I told you, I understand you."

Qin Jiang chuckled:

"Even that little beggar from back then wouldn't understand you better than I do."

He leaned down slightly, his chin almost resting on Chen Baizhe's shoulder.

His exhaled breath stirred her hair, making Chen Baizhe feel a slight itch on her jade-like neck.

However, Qin Jiang's threat was still quite effective.

Although she felt some resistance in her heart, she kept suppressing it, slightly tilting her head.

She said nothing.

Qin Jiang smiled, and his palm moved down her jade-like neck, about to continue downwards.

"Don't go too far!"

Chen Baizhe said coldly.

Qin Jiang stopped his movement and continued speaking:

"Tell me, if that brother of yours saw me treating you like this, would he still protect you?"

"Yes!"

Chen Baizhe said without hesitation.

Qin Jiang nodded:

"Then what do you think, with his talent back then, even if he lived until now, what Realm could he reach at most? Could he protect you?"

Tens of thousands of years have passed, if he could live until now, he would be at least a Great Emperor.

Chen Baizhe's eyes flickered slightly, with her brother's talent, could he really reach the Great Emperor Realm?

This question, she had always been unwilling to think about too much, she understood her brother's talent very well.

The possibility was minuscule.

Moreover, even if he reached the Great Emperor Realm, facing Qin Jiang, he probably wouldn't be able to protect himself.

"Let me ask you again, if he is still alive, and hasn't come back to see you for so many years, do you think you are really important to him?"

Qin Jiang's words were like a devil's whisper.

Making Chen Baizhe's delicate body stiffen.

That's right, after so many years, if he was still alive, he would be at least a Great Emperor, and reaching this Realm, coming back would be effortless.

But he didn't come back.

Had he fallen?

This was the greatest possibility, in fact, in her heart, she had long accepted this possibility.

But she had always been afraid to admit it.

Today, it was brutally unveiled by Qin Jiang.

On Chen Baizhe's pretty face, a hint of conflict appeared, she really hoped her brother was still alive, but if he was alive, and hadn't come to see her even once in so many years, was she really important to him?

And if he had fallen...

She shook her head, he wouldn't have fallen, he definitely wouldn't have fallen...

But if he hadn't fallen, why didn't he come back to see her?

Her eyes gradually became confused, Qin Jiang's question made her momentarily unsure whether she hoped her brother had fallen, or hoped her brother was still alive.

"Actually, whether he is dead or alive, there is no possibility between you and him."

Qin Jiang continued speaking.

Chen Baizhe came back to her senses, took a deep breath, and retorted:

"If he is alive, I will definitely be with him."

"He doesn't even care about you, and you still want to be with him?"

"..."

Chen Baizhe's pretty face stiffened.

She clenched her small fists slightly, looked up and glared at Qin Jiang, how could this guy be so infuriating with his words!

Moreover, he always made it impossible to refute him.

Qin Jiang smiled, leaned close to her ear, and whispered:

"If he is alive, do you think, with my current ability, I can kill him?"

"You..."

Chen Baizhe's expression changed.

Qin Jiang straightened up, patted her shoulder, and said indifferently:

"I am a very extreme person.

The person I can't have, no one else can have either, otherwise, I will kill him!

So, if you are smart, even if he is truly alive, don't have any thoughts about him, you can't protect him, and he can't protect you even more.

Also...

Whether he actually cares about you is still a question, you'd best hope he is already dead, that way, perhaps, he really did care about you.

But if he is alive...

There's a high probability that you mean nothing to him at all, and moreover, I will kill him!"

After speaking, Qin Jiang left directly.

Looking at his back, Chen Baizhe was slightly in a trance, there were many people who pursued her, but it was the first time she had met someone like Qin Jiang.

Was this pursuit?

This was naked threat.

Moreover, what made her even more conflicted were the words Qin Jiang said.

This shattered some of her previous beliefs.

She hoped her brother was still alive, and also hoped her brother cared about her, but these two seemed somewhat contradictory.

If he was alive, why didn't he come back to see her?

As for whether the other party had something going on, she didn't consider it too much, after all, what kind of matter could make a strong person who was at least a Great Emperor delay for tens of thousands of years?

Chen Baizhe's beautiful eyes gradually became confused.

...

Leaving the small courtyard, Qing Chan appeared beside him, to provoke an Immortal, Qin Jiang naturally couldn't take risks.

Qing Chan was his great treasure, of course, he had to keep her by his side.

She looked at Qin Jiang, then looked back again, and couldn't help but laugh:

"With just a few words, you completely shattered her beliefs."

"Just making her sober up a bit, that's all."

Qin Jiang smiled slightly:

"For such a beauty, I can't bear to watch her jump into a pit of fire."

"Oh?

You mean, her brother is still alive?"

Qing Chan said in surprise.

Qin Jiang nodded and said:

"Indeed, he is still alive.

Moreover, he is a Human Immortal."

Qing Chan was startled:

"How do you know that?"

"Hehe, I've seen him, and I even beat him up."

Qin Jiang chuckled, looked back at the small courtyard:

"If nothing unexpected happens, I estimate he should also be coming back soon."
