Chapter 941: Chapter 940 Daddy

This palm, although not at its full strength due to her doubts,

Still, even with just seventy percent of his power, for Feng Dingchu who had already been injured, it would definitely cause severe damage.

But he couldn’t let go.

His True Qi could help Chu Qianli stabilize her heart meridian and calm her breath; once he released his grip to counter Chu Qianli’s palm strike, the soothing effect he provided for Little Lili would be all for naught.

In the end, Feng Dingchu chose to close his eyes.

Ignoring the potentially fatal blow she delivered.

His pale lips parted slightly, and he calmly recited, "All beings are afflicted, affliction is suffering..."

With a whoosh, the palm wind rushed at his face.

But just as it was about to hit his chest, it suddenly stopped.

Feng Dingchu still didn’t open his eyes; he believed in Little Lili, now, he could only choose to trust.

"Afflictions are neither created nor destroyed, neither defiled nor immaculate, neither increasing nor decreasing..."

Chu Qianli’s brow furrowed.

Her hand was on Feng Dingchu’s chest, but the Inner Strength in her palm had already dissipated.

"Old books..."

"Little Lili, follow me: That which has form is born of the formless, the formless cannot create the formed, what is formed must return to the formless."

"All beings... are afflicted..."

Chu Qianli’s hand trembled, and her body also shook slightly, with a look of pain between her brows.

Her hand on Feng Dingchu’s chest clenched slowly, tightly.

Still, she tried hard to recite the Calming Incantation with him, "Afflictions... are suffering. Afflictions... are neither created nor destroyed..."

At last, she collapsed into his embrace.

...When she woke up again, the wind was light and the clouds were calm; everything seemed to have passed.

Chu Qianli turned her head, looking at the man sitting cross-legged not far from her, healing himself with Inner Strength.

Dad...

For some reason, those two words just got stuck in her throat.

Her heart felt sour.

She got up and sat in front of him, lifting her head, just like that, quietly watching him.

She watched for a very long time.

"What are you looking at?" Feng Dingchu’s eyes were still closed, and his lips, a bit split from his injury, lacked the usual rosy luster, but it added a desirable touch of ruggedness.

"Uncle Nine, I hurt you again," Chu Qianli said, not out of pretense, but out of genuine guilt.

Every time her True Qi went out of control, she would either drain his strength to save herself or, by accident, injure him.

"You’ll get used to it." Feng Dingchu seemed to take it in stride.

He was still healing and hadn’t finished, but even as he spoke with a voice that was still clear as water and a bit hoarse, Chu Qianli could tell that he had strong breath support.

He was okay.

She breathed a sigh of relief but kept staring at his brows and features.

Dad... Even though he was very young and seemed to be only about twenty-five or twenty-six years old.

He still had a way of soothing one’s heart, like a gentle elder.

He could make her feel at ease, warm her, and provide a sense of security like a towering tree or mountain.

If only Uncle Nine were her dad, how wonderful would that be?

"What does ’dad’ mean?" he suddenly asked.

Chu Qianli was startled and stared at him blankly.

How did he know what she was thinking?

Feng Dingchu finally gathered his True Qi and slowly opened his eyes, gazing back at her dirty little face, "When you were half-awake just now, you called me ’dad’ several times."

Chu Qianli bit her lip and blinked, "Dad... is the same as ’father’."

If she had a dad, if her dad were still alive, would he be as handsome as Uncle Nine?

No, that’s not right. Uncle Nine knew her mother Long Xiyue, he was her mother’s master’s junior, they must have crossed paths back in the day.

Her dad...

Chu Qianli grabbed his arm in a hurry, "You and my mother... Long Xiyue! Did you two ever..."

Could he really be her dad?
