Chapter 1339: Ji Tianfu’s Thoughts

"Hmm, it’s good to see you’re okay!"

Ji Hanluo glanced at the person she missed day and night, feeling calm and relieved.

Ji Hanluo timidly spoke, her face blushing, playing with the corner of her clothing. Her gaze was dodgy, secretly sizing up Su Yi from head to toe, too shy to meet his eyes.

Ji Tianfu looked at his daughter, who was radiating spring-like affection, and knew about her feelings for Su Yi. He shook his head in his heart. Sometimes, it’s best for young women to move on. However, Ji Tianfu had a different plan for this visit, with a hint of seriousness in his eyes.

Immediately, Su Yi asked the two of them to sit down. He looked at the uneasy Ji Hanluo, feeling unsure of what to do himself.

The atmosphere became awkward, and Ji Tianfu didn’t want to say certain things in front of his daughter.

"Ahem, Luo’er, I think the Overlord Sect has changed a lot since the last time I visited. Maybe you should look around and who knows, you might come here often in the future," Ji Tianfu smiled faintly, looking at Ji Hanluo.

"Daddy!"

Ji Tianfu’s joking words hit the spot in the young girl’s heart. Coming to the Overlord Sect frequently meant that her father had figured out her feelings for Su Yi, and it might even imply that she would live here with Su Yi in the future.

"Oh!"

Ji Hanluo had a small red mark on her beautiful snowy neck, with a hint of anger. She walked quickly and lightly, like a wisp of smoke, and ran towards the door.

Ji Hanluo’s figure disappeared gracefully in Su Yi’s eyes, and it made Su Yi feel a little uncertain when a girl treated him this way.

Ji Tianfu smiled knowingly, reminding Su Yi intentionally or unintentionally.

"Sect Leader Su, you should understand a little girl’s thoughts."

Of course, Su Yi understood Ji Hanluo’s feelings. Ji Tianfu had saved him several times and chose to ally with him when the Overlord Sect was in a silent period.

It was not only because Ji Tianfu had keen insight and was good at judging people, but also because Ji Hanluo was acting as the intermediary.

Later, during the Fantastic Gate Soul Realm in the alliance conference, Ji Hanluo confided in him, and Su Yi understood her admiration for him.

When Ji Hanluo was captured by the Green Dark Sect, Su Yi was filled with immense anger.

In a fit of rage, he massacred the Green Dark Sect, flattened their sect, and even he himself realized that he seemed to have developed a different affection for this Mysterious Sword Gate young lady whom he hadn’t known for long.

After hearing Ji Tianfu’s words, Su Yi quickly regained his composure and smiled slightly, saying, "Miss Hanluo is very kind and has a simple and good nature."

"I wonder what Sect Leader Su thinks of the little girl?"

Su Yi pondered silently, wondering what kind of feelings he had towards Ji Hanluo. Despite living two lives, he had no experience with emotions at all.

From Earth to this continent, he went from being an unknown and insignificant person to becoming a useless young master in Man City. And now, he has become a terrifying and powerful sect master.

The hardships and difficulties in all this, no one can understand. Su Yi never imagined love between men and women, he doesn’t know the whereabouts of his sworn brothers, he doesn’t know if his grandfather and the Su family are safe, and he doesn’t know what happened to his biological parents. Su Yi has to figure out everything.

Su Yi didn’t know what to do for a while, so he remained silent.

"I…"

Su Yi felt a lump in his throat, unable to find the right words. The sweet honeymoon in the Fantastic Gate Soul Realm remained vivid in his memory. Even a Heavenly Grade soul like Su Yi was a bit confused, wondering if that wonderful time was real.

"Qianxue, how should I respond?"

"Qianxue，Qianxue？"

Su Yi kept calling out in his mind, but there was no response. Su Yi was puzzled. Did even the powerful Demonic Emperor Realm demons need to sleep often?

Su Yi couldn’t help but wonder.

Ling Qianxue looked at Su Yi, who seemed hesitant. A hint of sadness flashed across Ling Qianxue’s beautiful face in Su Yi’s mind.

"Why does it hurt in my heart when I see a girl liking him?"

After the destruction of her own clan, Ling Qianxue felt this way for the first time.

"I am the Demon Emperor, a powerful clan in the demon world. Why do I have these feelings for a worthless human scoundrel? I thought I would never feel this way again."

Ling Qianxue’s voice was like a singing bird, whispering softly in her heart. It echoed with sorrow and confusion, while Su Yi remained oblivious.

Ji Tianfu’s eyebrows furrowed as he observed Su Yi’s thoughtful gaze.

"Sect Leader Su, burdened with great ambitions, my little daughter seems to have climbed quite high!" Ji Tianfu sighed softly.

When Su Yi saved his own daughter, he never imagined that Su Yi would come to today, and do so very quickly.

Su Yi’s mind quickly changed, he waved his hand repeatedly.

"Master Ji, I don’t mean that, I just have many things left unfinished, I’m worried about delaying Miss Hanluo!"

Ji Tianfu’s eyes softened a bit, he took a deep breath.

"When I first established the Mysterious Sword Gate, when I was young I was proud and had many enemies. At the beginning of Mysterious Sword Gate, there was much to be done, and I often had trivial matters that kept me away from the sect."

"Until one time…"

As Ji Tianfu spoke, his words faltered, as if he remembered something sad.

After a few moments, calming his emotions, he continued to speak slowly.

"Once upon a time, I went to explore a hidden world. Hanuo’s mother took him to visit her family, and enemies attacked along the way. Twenty disciples from the Mysterious Sword Gate lost their lives instantly. By the time I arrived, Hanuo’s mother was protecting him under her body. She had low cultivation but still resisted until I felt her weakening. Hanuo’s mother was already severely injured and in critical condition."

"Sect Leader Ji…"

Su Yi looked at Leader Ji and suddenly began talking about Hanuo’s background. His once strong and noble face turned sorrowful, revealing a lifetime of hidden pain.

Immediately, Su Yi thought of the times when his beloved Man City was under attack. He transformed into a bloodthirsty deity, protecting the safety of everyone in Man City. At that time, his grandfather was his biggest worry. This is the bond of blood and kinship.

Before him, two men shared their deepest secrets. These two rulers, who were once powerful in the outside world, now revealed their most tender sides.

Su Yi sat up straight and listened carefully, afraid to show any neglect. This was a man’s promise to his wife, but more importantly, his duty to protect his daughter.

"During those years, I traveled through six lands, three continents, and one ocean, trying my best to find the most precious medicines in the world. I wanted to ease Hanuo’s mother’s suffering from illness. But after a few years, Hanuo’s mother… passed away…"

As he spoke, even after all these years, Ji Tianfu’s face still showed signs of pain.

Ji Tianfu’s eyes became vacant, as if he were murmuring to himself.

"Since then, even though HanNuo has no mother, I promise myself that I won’t let HanNuo suffer even a little bit. I will try my best to stay close to Luo’er, so she can see me every day and nobody can bully her."
