Chapter 1128: Did We Dream Together?

“Mm… Senior Martial Brother, you’re right.”

Su Kexin still leaned towards Lin Nuo. Although she hesitated, she was willing to trust him.

Perhaps, that so-called person from the Sacred Realm was just trying to deceive her, maybe targeting her abilities!

Yes, that’s it.

“Kexin, do you really believe that so firmly?”

Su Lingjiang’s words carried a hint of helplessness. His daughter, what if one day she was deceived by Lin Nuo?

“Senior Martial Brother is knowledgeable, and our family can only be reunited thanks to him. Dad, let’s trust Senior Martial Brother.”

Su Kexin continued to hold her ground, always believing in Lin Nuo.

“You… sigh. Well, you’ve grown up, and some things you should have your own judgment on. I can only hope the person you trust is right.”

“Dad, why would you say that? Senior Martial Brother is trustworthy.”

“Alright, then believe.”

Su Lingjiang said he believed on the surface, but deep down, he still had his doubts.

After all, he only had one daughter, and he certainly had to be more cautious to avoid her taking a wrong path.

He felt quite guilty for not caring about her much over the years—that was his regret.

So now, he had to do his best to look after Su Kexin’s situation.

Lin Nuo was ultimately an outsider. Moreover, he had a vague feeling that Lin Nuo seemed to hide a little-known plan.

With strange places like the Demon Realm and Sacred Realm appearing, yet Lin Nuo outright denied them.

Lin Nuo was just an eighteen-year-old boy. In terms of experience, he was higher, yet the things Lin Nuo knew were astonishingly numerous.

Of course, it was also unclear how much of what he said was true, or if he was intentionally fabricating a scheme.

That was far beyond the knowledge a typical eighteen-year-old could possess.

Moreover, it was said that before and after the Wind Sea Forest trials last year, Lin Nuo had undergone substantial changes, leaving people baffled.

He even speculated a scenario: maybe he had died in the Wind Sea Forest, and someone had replaced him.

But that was merely speculation; there wasn’t enough evidence to verify it.

Besides, that was too far back to now.

“Mm-mm, Dad is quite open-minded. In the future, we’ll all be one family, united as one; I believe we can get through anything.”

Su Kexin smiled, feeling optimistic, looking forward to the future, even thinking of becoming a family with Lin Nuo.

This family, of course, meant as a couple.

She already thought of names for their future children.

“Senior Martial Brother, may I ask you something? When you first entered the Xuanyun Sect, did you ever go to the back mountain of Ru Yu Village to gather herbs?”

“Why do you ask that?”

Lin Nuo sensed something was off; it felt like there was trouble brewing.

“Oh, it’s just that I went there once back then. I didn’t gather any herbs. I recently had a dream about that scene. But some new images appeared; I fell off a cliff into a deep valley, where I encountered you.”

“What?!”

Upon hearing this, Lin Nuo thought, good heavens, this plot sounds familiar!

Wasn’t that exactly what he had gone through?

He also fell off a cliff, ended up in a valley, and then met her.

“Ah? Senior Martial Brother, does that mean you remember? Sorry, I have no memory of it, but if it’s true, then we must have met back then?”

“I don’t remember. You tell me, what else did you dream about?”

Lin Nuo asked casually, while inside, he was filled with countless question marks.

He initially thought this was just a dream fabrication—after all, in dreams, all sorts of bizarre illusions can occur.

However, after listening to Su Kexin recount her dream, he was utterly shocked.

Good heavens, wasn’t that practically identical to his own experience?

So, did they dream together?

Are they syncing up here?

That means there was some connection between them back then?

But who could say if that truly existed?

“Senior Martial Brother, did you have any impression of this?”

Once Su Kexin finished recounting her dream, Lin Nuo couldn’t help but frown.

Could he really not have any impression? He had quite the impression.

But would he tell her?

No way! How could he reveal that he, a major villain, shared a dream with her? Then she’d start saying they must have some kind of bond, and he’d end up having to listen to a whole bunch of chitchat!

“No, it’s just a dream. How can you take a dream seriously? If you don’t have any memory of it, then it’s something that never happened.”

Lin Nuo said seriously, hiding the unease in his heart.

Su Kexin scratched her head: “Oh, so that’s how it is. Alright, I guess I thought too much; it was just a dream. But, Senior Martial Brother, there’s one thing I want to confirm with you. Back then, when I was considering giving up on martial arts, I encountered a wise person who guided me. That person’s voice was a bit youthful and somewhat resembled yours. He was up in a tree, and I couldn’t see him clearly. Later, he enlightened me to keep going. I just want to confirm, could that person have been you?”

Lin Nuo: “?!”

Holy moly, this…

Is this for real?

So, does that mean I led you onto the right path?

Of all the people, why you?!

It’s like I brought a bomb along, and many years later, that bomb blew me up!

Can’t accept this.

“Senior Martial Brother, is that you?”

Seeing Lin Nuo stunned, Su Kexin repeated her question.

“It wasn’t me.”

Lin Nuo swiftly denied, not wanting to take responsibility for this embarrassing matter.

“Alright… then I must have thought too much…”

Su Kexin felt a bit disappointed. If that really was Lin Nuo, they could have had more connections! What great youthful memories.

No, Senior Martial Brother is saying one thing and thinking another. Maybe it really was him, but he just doesn’t want to admit it!

“You two seem to have quite a few private matters, huh?”

Qin Shili, who had been listening the whole time, couldn’t help but interject, questioning Lin Nuo.

“Nothing much.”

Lin Nuo dismissed Qin Shili’s assumptions.

“Okay, I’ll leave it at that. Su Kexin, I advise you to return to seclusion and avoid training for now. Otherwise, it could be very dangerous for you.”

“This… even if there is danger, what’s a day or two? It’s rare to see Senior Martial Brother, I want to catch up with him. Right, Senior Martial Brother?”

“I have important matters to attend to; we can talk another day.”

Lin Nuo didn’t want to chat much with Su Kexin anymore; he quickly waved his hand and summoned the Spirit Sword.

However, the Phoenix Soul was still with Su Kexin and hadn’t returned to him.

Good heavens, this really is a betrayal.

Are you not coming back at all?

“Come back.”

Lin Nuo said coldly, but still couldn’t get the Phoenix to return to his sword.

That was quite troublesome.

Because his current sword was formed from two combined ones; a mountain can’t have two tigers, yet a dragon and phoenix soul can coexist, and their fusion allowed him to showcase superhuman sword skills.

Not to mention multiple sword intents; multiple sword intents can split into multiple swords and can even fly together, all thanks to the cooperation of these two sword souls, creating a presence of 1+1>2.

But losing one greatly reduces the effect.

“Senior Martial Brother, are you going somewhere? Can I come with you?”

Su Kexin was reluctant to part with Lin Nuo. The stronger her emotions grew, the harder it became for the Phoenix Soul to return to Lin Nuo.
