The sound of Jiang Huai’s cough echoed in the room.
Chu Xianning’s beautiful eyebrows slightly furrowed, ready to draw closer, but Jiang Huai waved his hand and said softly,
“It’s nothing.”
Despite his face still being devoid of color, Chu Xianning could faintly hear his pained groans due to the broken meridians while she practiced swordsmanship in the courtyard at midnight. Yet, his face now bore a calm expression.
“Why no regrets?”
Chu Xianning asked softly.
Jiang Huai picked up a handkerchief to gently wipe his lips, looking at the streak of blood on the pure white fabric. He lifted his head, his gaze falling on Chu Xianning’s beautiful eyes.
“When I was young, Master took me to Tianxuan Sect out of kindness, teaching me to harbor good intentions, to wield my sword to cut down evil and care for the common people. Now, with bloodthirsty demons before me and a sword in my hand, of course I must strike them.”
Chu Xianning’s shoulders trembled slightly, her throat felt tight.
“Didn’t I teach you to be somewhat flexible?”
Jiang Huai replied calmly, “The situation was urgent that day. If I had been any later, those evil cultivators would have already conducted their ritual that night, and it would have been too late to save anyone. Oh right, I heard the sect master has already found places for those children?”
