Chapter 1719 - 1722: The Simple Dreams of Jinchan and Qingxuan

Looking at the adorably pouting Jin Chan as she made gestures towards the osmanthus cake, Shen Qiang laughed, "You make it sound like I mistreat you. I've bought every brand of osmanthus cake at home for you to try, and now you, my little ungrateful one, are only thinking about Qingxuan?"Hearing this, Jin Chan pouted, "It's not just about the food. It's because sister Qingxuan always wanted to go shopping and stroll around with Master like a real woman. She said that was her ultimate dream. So when I saw Song Weiyin for that moment, I felt like sister Qingxuan had achieved her dream and come back to life."

"Moreover, she is really outstanding. Not only does she have a sweet aura, but she also looks strong and young and has great talent, just like a reincarnation of sister Qingxuan. So when she said she wanted to talk to me, my heart was pounding, afraid that she'd tell me in the next moment, 'Little Jin Chan, I'm your sister Qingxuan.'

"If that were true, I'd be overjoyed. Sister Qingxuan recently keeps talking about it to me, saying if she really could be resurrected, she'd wear the most beautiful clothes to show Master…"

Jin Chan spoke these words with delight, but they caused the expression on Shen Qiang's face, resting on his chair, to drastically change.

"Such a high similarity in appearance, remarkable cultivation, excellent talent, pure and graceful—this Song Weiyin is exactly the person I've been helping Qingxuan look for, isn't she?"

"No wonder from the first time I saw her, I didn't want to hide my thoughts before her and didn't care if I was losing face."

"That's why I was so straightforward. With other people, I might still show some restraint, but my cold treatment of her is likely because, in my subconscious, I have already regarded her as Qingxuan."

Shen Qiang was shocked inside.

At that moment, seeming to sense that something was off with Shen Qiang, Ke Bizhu interrupted Jin Chan, saying, "Shh, stop talking nonsense. Shen Qiang seems a bit tired."

Jin Chan immediately acknowledged with a "oh," then looked curiously at Shen Qiang with her beautiful eyes.

Having recovered, Shen Qiang smiled and said, "It's nothing, go on about sister Qingxuan's dream, I'm interested."

Hearing this, Jin Chan instantly beamed, "Sister Qingxuan's dream is to be resurrected and stay by Master's side. She said if that happens, she wouldn't have to always stand by idly. As for her ultimate dream..."

Jin Chan suddenly blushed and then coyly said, "She says it's to dual cultivate with Master!"

Ke Bizhu's eyes curved with laughter, and Shen Qiang also smiled, though the smile was rather stiff, because in truth, Qingxuan had willingly undergone soldier disintegration for the people of the Central State, sacrificing herself to protect Shen Qiang while silently helping all along.

In the beginning, without Qingxuan's help and protection, Shen Qiang wouldn't have had the opportunity for rapid development.

But later, since Shen Qiang's cultivation reached the Nascent Soul Stage, and with Heshenghe, Qingxuan gradually became less able to assist, so over this period, Shen Qiang didn't intentionally ignore her, but he undeniably did overlook her a bit.

But in truth, Shen Qiang knew that Qingxuan wasn't having a good time now.

She could only watch Jin Chan and others enjoy good food, wear beautiful clothes, and play, unable to do anything herself. Moreover, even the clothes that Xiu Ju sewed for her by hand were taken away by You Ying. You could say all she could do now was silently watch everything, unable to join in.

Because she had no body, she couldn't do anything.

Even just going out for a walk on the street was a luxury.

"What about you, little Jin Chan? Your original dream was to eat osmanthus cake, so what is it now? Is it still that?" Ke Bizhu's words made Shen Qiang turn his gaze to Jin Chan.

Only to find her pretty face a bit flushed.

"Of course, it's to grow tall, and then... then..."

Seeing Jin Chan stammer, Ke Bizhu laughed, "Then what? Go on, tell us."

Jin Chan's pretty face turned crimson all the way to the roots of her neck. She covered her face and whispered, "Just like sister Qingxuan."

After saying that, she vanished in a flash.

Ke Bizhu laughed heartily, but just then, she suddenly discovered Shen Qiang was absent-minded and staring off into space.

The Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu, surprised, asked, "Shen Qiang, what's wrong? Do you have something on your mind? What are you pondering?"

Shen Qiang was startled, then smiled, "I was just thinking that I'm probably at the wrong place, meeting the right person. If I had met Song Weiyin in the morgue, I think I would be very, very happy now."

The Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu was stunned upon hearing those words, then hesitantly and nervously said, "Shen Qiang, don't overthink. I know your feelings towards Qingxuan are complicated, but don't you have a better choice? There's the Divine Corpse, the resting place of War Goddess Athena—you've already mastered it, haven't you?"

"Once you get the Divine Corpse, you can resurrect Qingxuan, and that's far more suitable than Song Weiyin. Besides, I heard you say that You Ying wants the flower crown on the Divine Corpse, so don't have foolish ideas. You're a great hero, a righteous person, a Security Advisor for the Dragon Group—you can't mess around."

Hearing these words, Shen Qiang took a deep breath and sighed, "Don't worry, I won't mess around. It's just that sometimes I keep wondering how long I should let Qingxuan wait. Three months? Five years?"

Looking at the suddenly nervous Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu, Shen Qiang self-questioningly and self-answeringly said, "Unfortunately, I don't know, I wishfully believe that once I take the top spot at the Elixir Pill conference, the Great Sea Demon will view me differently, and agree to help me retrieve the Divine Corpse and stand against the Sea Emperor Clan for me."

Ke Bizhu hesitated for a moment and said, "It's undeniable that the Great Sea Demon is in need of elixir pills, and he will view you differently, he will help you, so you..."

"Say no more," Shen Qiang interrupted, "We all know no one would willingly help others for free. I wouldn't; the Great Sea Demon wouldn't either. So tonight, I plan to go to Ting Tao once more and have a good chat with Jinli Qianning."

The Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu's expression turned tense and she said, "Shen Qiang, I know what you're thinking, don't mess around. You're not truly a bad person, you still have a bottom line."

Shen Qiang smiled, "Don't make the atmosphere so tense. Rest assured, I won't mess around. I just want to chat with Jinli Qianning again. After all, some issues can't be resolved just by waiting."

The Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu hesitated for a moment and then said, "Then I'll accompany you tonight. If there's a problem, at least there will be someone to discuss it with, in case you get stuck in a loop, I worry you might..."

Shen Qiang smiled, interrupting, "I'll go alone because tonight, I need you to keep an eye on Song Weiyin for me."
