128 6th Level Divine Emperor Realm. (1/2)

” Sh*t!!”

Ling Tian was startled. All the battle training he had done with the Perfect copy clone and adapting to a percent of Devil God's battle experience, his fighting instincts are at the peak every second.

Although he held back all his strength in the last moment, he still couldn't stop his fist.

” Ke'er! Are you alright?” Ling Tian asked in worry as he helped her up.

” Ma-master... *sob* *sob*” Lin Ke'er started to sob, causing Ling Tian to feel nervous. He'd rather deal with world destroying foes than deal with a sobbing woman.

” I'm sorry, Ke'er. It's my fault! I swear I won't make this mistake again, so.... Please stop crying.” Ling Tian said in a helpless tone.

” No, it's me who should be saying sorry. I'm the one who tried hit you even after master said that the spar was over.” Lin Ke'er said.

” No. You were only trying to do what I had asked you to do... So as long as you stop crying, I'll be satisfied.” Ling Tian said.

” Ke'er, I noticed that you're losing your concentration in the fight. If there's something troubling you, you can always talk to me. You might feel better once you say it to someone. Besides, I'm sort of a good listener.” Ling Tian said with a smile as he patted Lin Ke'er's head.

Lin Ke'er looked at Ling Tian's smiling face and a determined expression appeared to her face.

” Master..?” Lin Ke'er lightly asked in a hushed tone.

” Yeah?” Ling Tian inquired.

Lin Ke'er hesitated at first, but then went along with what she was going to say.

' I have to say it, otherwise I'll never get the chance.' Lin Ke'er thought.

” ..I love you.” She said silently.

Ling Tian was stunned to silence by Lin Ke'er's words.

” Master always treats me well and I even started to have feelings for master. I started to love you as a man, even though I knew I shouldn't.” Lin Ke'er said while still sobbing.

” Uhh....” Ling Tian was stunned to silence.

' Seriously?! That's it?! All the plans I had thought of.... It's all for naught.' Ling Tian thought bitterly.

” During these days, I always think of marrying master, having kids, living in a quiet peaceful village.... But I know, it's not possible. Master has so many women who are much prettier than me around you, so you'll not be interested in someone like me. So I hid my feelings for you.” Lin Ke'er said.

” .... ” At this point, Although he knew that she was confessing to him, Ling Tian didn't know why she is suddenly confessing to him.

” But I still want to let you know! You taught me that one must live without any regrets.” Lin Ke'er quietly muttered and waited for Ling Tian's reply.

After a while, Ling Tian said, ” It's not that I don't like you, but maybe your love for me might change in the future. You have to understand, Ke'er, I just don't want to get hurt… at least emotionally. It's a pain I hate and fear the most.” Ling Tian said while lowering his head to look at her.
