Chapter 368: Star Pearl [Third Update]
"It’s all over, no need to be afraid."
Qin Jun said to Li with a smile, and even though his hair was disheveled and his face smeared with blood, his smile was still so warm and comforting.
Li smiled back, then broke free from Daji and You Fenghuang’s support and headed swiftly toward Qin Jun. However, injured as she was, she stumbled after a few steps, but fortunately, Qin Jun was close enough to catch her steadily as he flashed to her side.
"Brother Qin Jun, you scared me to death just now. I thought you really got possessed by the demon," Li said in a soft voice, clutching tightly onto Qin Jun, her face pressed against his chest, listening to his heartbeat, her own heart calming down in sync.
Daji and You Fenghuang also approached, their faces filled with excited tears as they looked at Qin Jun.
The Qin Jun they had seen before was too strange, but now the smiling man before them was still the one they loved most in their hearts.
Wang Xue didn’t come over, but she was smiling at Qin Jun too. It was only after this brush with death that she truly understood her feelings.
"Your Majesty, just now it was..." Daji began to ask with hesitation, the frightening demonic aura emanating from Ji Yongsheng had made her very anxious.
Qin Jun shook his head and smiled, "I will explain it to you all later."
Ji Yongsheng had fallen back into slumber, so for the time being, Qin Jun didn’t need to worry about it anymore. After all, even the system quest had been triggered, indicating that Ji Yongsheng wasn’t lying. His soul truly remained in a dormant state, perhaps that’s also why he didn’t possess Qin Jun.
But Qin Jun always felt there was another reason, especially when Ji Yongsheng said, "I am you, and you are me."
