Lin Yan nodded and didn't say anything more.

They quickly took Jiang Wan'er away and soon left the fourth floor of the Demon Locking Tower.

Along the way, Lin Yan also asked Jiang Wan'er about some things related to the Demon Locking Tower.

It is known that Jiang Wan'er was indeed born in the Demon Locking Tower.

Her mother's health deteriorated after giving birth to her.

She also fought against many monsters in the Demon Locking Tower, which led to her mother's untimely death.

Otherwise, Jiang Wan'er's mother could have lived for at least several hundred years.

Chapter 223 It's always the honest people who suffer.

. . . . . .

Outside the Demon-Sealing Tower, the Drunken Sword Immortal was still somewhat anxious.

After all, Jiang Ming inside the Demon Locking Tower is no weaker than Bai Yue.

Even the Sword Saint had told him that Jiang Ming's talent was the best Shu Mountain disciple in hundreds of years.

Jiang Ming can basically do everything the Sword Saint can do, and he may even be able to do things the Sword Saint can't.

That's why he was so worried that he couldn't even drink.

As he paced back and forth, he saw Lin Yan emerge from the Demon-Locking Tower.

But it wasn't just Lin Yan; there was another figure closely following behind him.

Judging from her appearance, she was an extremely beautiful woman, and she also had a faint demonic aura about her.

Although not strong, the Sword Immortal had been traveling for decades.

It was immediately obvious that the person was a demon, not a human, and was an extremely rare half-demon.

"Hey kid, why did you bring a monster with you?"

"Vixen?"

"You're really something. I sent you in to solve Jiang Ming's problem, and you brought out a vixen instead."

"What would Ling'er think if she knew?"

"I never would have guessed you were such a womanizer."

As soon as the Sword Immortal saw Lin Yan bring Jiang Wan'er out, he immediately walked up to Lin Yan.

He frowned, pulled Lin Yan aside, and began to lecture him.

Lin Yan had no choice but to listen to this lecture, which sounded like that of an elder.

"Hey, stop talking nonsense."

"This vixen is Jiang Ming's daughter, who entrusted her to someone else on her deathbed."

"Then you, Shushan, can decide for yourselves what to do."

"Anyway, I followed his last words and brought the person out directly."

Lin Yan sighed softly, a helpless expression on his face.

He knew perfectly well that if Zhao Ling'er found out about this, it would definitely make her unhappy.

Although Zhao Ling'er is a gentle person, she will definitely feel heartbroken after learning about Jiang Wan'er's identity and experiences, and may even soften her heart and let Jiang Wan'er stay.

However, Lin Yan did not want to keep Jiang Wan'er here.

After all, it would be too troublesome. A girl who knows nothing would definitely cause a lot of trouble in human society.

"Jiang Ming's daughter?"

"This"

Upon hearing Lin Yan's words, the Sword Immortal's face showed a look of surprise.

This was the first time he had ever heard that Jiang Ming had a daughter.

After all, Jiang Ming's identity was different; he married a monster.

If word gets out that there are children involved, their reputation in Shushan might be affected.

"Hey kid, don't tell anyone about this."

"Then this girl will be yours to take care of. You will take her out of Mount Shu."

"We can't let anyone else know that this girl is Jiang Ming's daughter."

"Otherwise, I'm afraid there will be big trouble."

After thinking for a while, the Sword Immortal whispered instructions to Lin Yan.

After all, in his view, Jiang Ming was a discarded disciple of Mount Shu.

If there were another demon daughter, even a half-demon, it would greatly affect the reputation of their Shu Mountain sect.

There's even a possibility that someone might come to assassinate this half-demon.

After all, what happened back then caused quite a stir.

Jiang Ming has many enemies who are members of the demon race. Now that a hundred years have passed, those enemies must have become even stronger.

Lin Yan was well aware of this matter, so naturally he entrusted Jiang Wan'er's affairs to Shushan.

I would never do such a stupid thing.

Moreover, Jiang Wan'er looks almost exactly like her mother, so if she were recognized by her enemies outside...

That would definitely be a dead end.

"Hey, don't try to shirk responsibility."

"No matter what, this girl is a descendant of your Shu Mountain disciples."

"Even if Jiang Ming was expelled from Mount Shu, he is still your senior brother in name only."

Lin Yan sensed that the Sword Immortal of Wine wanted to pass this troublesome matter on to him.

That was when he expressed his attitude.

Bringing Jiang Wan'er out of the Demon-Sealing Tower was already fulfilling the promise made to Jiang Ming.

He wouldn't want to be a nanny.

Although there is probably no danger left in this world of immortals and swords.

Lin Yan was unwilling to be a free nanny.

"Boy, what are you saying?"

"You are responsible for the people you brought out."

"Otherwise, if this girl dies outside, it will all be your responsibility."

Upon hearing Lin Yan's words, the Sword Immortal immediately expressed his displeasure.

Pointing at Lin Yan, he began to lecture him.

Lin Yan, however, turned a deaf ear and acted as if he hadn't heard a thing.

“Little one, he’s absolutely right.”

"There are some things that you can't simply refuse to do just because you say you don't want to."

"Since you brought this little girl here..."

"Since Senior Brother Jiang Ming has entrusted her to you, you naturally have to take some responsibility."

Just then, the Sword Saint suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

It was obvious that he had overheard their conversation.

The words spoken at this time also revealed an attitude of unwillingness to take responsibility.

Lin Yan couldn't help but sigh when he heard this.

"You two brothers are practically trying to kill me, aren't you?"

"But don't forget, I'm not a great philanthropist."

"Even if that girl were Jiang Ming's daughter, or this drunkard's daughter, I wouldn't care."

Lin Yan shook his head, directly rejecting the moral blackmail.

It's impossible for him to do something that doesn't benefit him.

Of course, if there are benefits involved, then that's another story.

"So, all you want in the end is something, right?"

"Senior brother, give this kid a little something."

The Drunken Sword Immortal was the first to understand the meaning behind Lin Yan's words, and immediately invoked the Sword Saint's name.
