Lin Xian instantly understood what his sister was suddenly apologizing for. He walked over to his sister and hugged her gently.
"You don't need to apologize; I already told you that you are my sister. I will always protect you if something dangerous happens."
"No, it's not you who protect me, but we protect each other." Liu Xue denied it.
Lin Xian felt awkward hearing Liu Xue's statement. After releasing his embrace, he told her about Yi Qi being a part of them.
There were several reasons Lin Xian let Yi Qi into his group. One was because of Yi Qi's talent. Without examining it, he understood that a 14-year-old girl who had reached the Qi Refining level was not ordinary.
The second reason was for Yi Qi to always be by Liu Xue's side when Lin Xian intended to leave temporarily to improve his strength.
Lin Xian knows that other cultivators may have cultivation increases if they enter the sect. But not for himself because he chose to become the God of Villains.
Liu Xue was surprised that Lin Xian had brought someone into their group. But she had absolutely nothing against it because she had always believed in Lin Xian's judgment. She was also surprised by Lin Xian's character, who looked very mature and calculating.
After speaking for a bit, Lin Xian felt the seal made by him on Yi Qi approaching.
"I'll pick up Yi Qi first." Lin Xian said as he slowly walked out of the room.
When she arrived outside the inn, Lin Xian immediately called Yi Qi and brought her into the room where they were staying.
Yi Qi felt nervous from time to time. She doesn't look like a killer. Right now, she was just like any other 14-year-old girl.
Looking at Liu Xue, Yi Qi hurriedly bowed and introduced himself.
"I am sorry, I..."
"You must be Yi Qi, right?" Liu Xue asked, interrupting Yi Qi's words.
Yi Qi was surprised because she had never introduced her name, even to Lin Xian.
"How do you know?" Yi Qi asked in surprise.
Liu Xue was confused and immediately looked at Lin Xian curiously.
"I have my way of knowing someone's identity." Lin Xian immediately spoke when he saw Liu Xue's astonished look.
Yi Qi was even more surprised. Because, all this time, she had been a murderer for some time, no one knew at all about her identity. She felt more and more that Lin Xian was full of mystery.
"Yi Qi, from today on, you are one of us. We will not treat you as a slave. I placed the slave seal on you because I don't fully trust you yet. And, you can call me Brother or whatever you want and no Master." Lin Xian said.
Yi Qi froze at Lin Xian's words and could not believe that she would not be treated the way she thought she would.
Lin Xian will make Yi Qi not betray them by doing that. Trust is the most important in a relationship with subordinates, colleagues, and family.
Yi Qi's eyes suddenly became slightly teary. She suddenly felt that her life would change by following Lin Xian.
Of course, Lin Xian predicted that. Tweaking a child's psychology and getting the child to trust himself completely will make that child a loyal companion or perhaps a part of the family Someday.
Yes, I will do my best..." Yi Qi whispered.
"Good, now rest. And here are all the needles you have." Lin Xian took out a pile of needles and gave them to Yi Qi.
"Thank You." Yi Qi said while receiving all of her needles.
"No need for thanks. I already said that you are now a part of us. Do your best, and I will instantly remove the seal I made. When that comes, it's up to you to be with us or leave." Lin Xian said.
"Yes, got it." Yi Qi replied firmly.
Lin Xian immediately smiled because he felt that Yi Qi believed his words too soon. It wouldn't be long before Yi Qi thought of them as family and would do anything for her new family.
Liu Xue also smiled upon hearing Yi Qi's words.
Before they rested, they chatted for a while and then went straight to sleep. The next few days, they would only cultivate and wait for the sect member recruitment day.
***
Several days have passed. Zou Shang was still unable to get any news from the killers hired by him.
Zou Shang felt angry and intended to hire a new killer. However, he felt it would be useless.
He didn't know that Yi Qi had leaked his identity and hired killers. Thus, Lin Xian aimed to eliminate Zou Shang when the time came.
Zou Shang was currently wearing a sullen face. "Tch! Useless killers. What should I do now?" Zou Shang asked himself.
He walked around looking for Lin Xian and Liu Xue to get rid of the two of them.
A few moments later, Zou Shang stopped walking because he thought of something.
"There was no news of them at all. They remained in this city as if waiting for something. There was no way for them to wait for me to leave the city." freeweb(n)ovel.co(m)
"In other words…." Zou Shang's face became irritated instantly, knowing what Lin Xian and Liu Xue's intentions were. That was because he was a member of a large Sect. Of course, he would know when it was time to recruit new disciples for the sect.
"Looks like this is going to be troublesome. Let's see when the recruitment starts. I will kill him on the spot if I have the chance." Zou Shang whispered. He stared at the two photos on his cellphone with a cold gaze and dense killing intent.
The two photos are of Lin Xian and Liu Xue's faces caught on CCTV in a residential alley.
"You two will regret killing my two idiotic little brothers!" Zou Shang muttered as he squinted at the wide city view before him.
Zou Shang would never let go of two prey he would pounce on later. Because if he has a grudge against someone, he will do anything to kill that person.
Zou Shang rushed down from the roof of the building, deciding to head to where his sect would gather in the city. Because then he would know when the right time to start recruiting sect disciples would be.
"Young Master, a woman suddenly entered your room; she said that the Young Master had ordered it for tonight." Said one of the bodyguards reporting the information to Zou Shang.
Zou Shang only smiled faintly and then immediately headed into his room.
