The Wrong Way to a Demon Sect Leader

Chapter 68

That old man lifts up his head to look at him.

He's already rather up there in age, but the expression in his eyes remains to appear quite imposing, a serious face without the trace of a smile. He is the Demon Sect's leader who should have already died, Yan* Buhuo. He hooks his gaze into Ji Han, slowly opening his mouth to ask, "Already captured?"

Ji Han says, "Yes."

Yan Buhuo also asks, "That traitor already sent out the news?"

Ji Han nods, "He sent it out."

Yan Buhuo's face finally shows a hint of a smile, "You did well."

Ji Han, "Many thanks for Yifu's praise."

Yan Buhuo stands up.

"The day of the martial world's conference is already not far off." He says, "You'll proceed to Baicang Mountain first, put things in order carefully. Leave immediately."

Ji Han is slightly dumbfounded, can't help opening his mouth to speak, "Yifu, my injuries..."

Although his injuries aren't as serious as Zhao Jiangui had thought, but they are after all injuries he sustained. Daifu also says he still needs to recuperate, a long and difficult trek is quite inappropriate.

Yan Buhuo's cold voice says, "What about your injuries?"

Ji Han's voice suddenly comes out lowered, "My injuries...aren't a major hindrance."

Yan Buhuo says, "Merely a few tiny injuries, that's all. If you're spoiled like this, how can I be at ease entrusting the Holy Sect to you."

Ji Han whispers, "...I recognize my mistake."

Yan Buhuo's gloomy face nods, he continues speaking, "You don't need to worry, proceed for the time being. I'll bring others to assist you myself."

Ji Han says, "Yes."

Yan Buhuo also asks, "Where did you lock up that Zhao Jiangui?"

Ji Han says, "He's detained with Xiao Lin in the dungeon."

Yan Buhuo says, "Zhao Jiangui isn't a simple character. Even though he's already locked in the dungeon, you also absolutely cannot be soft-hearted and careless.**"

Ji Han nods, saying, "I will dispatch people to keep him under strict watch."

"Strict watch?" Yan Buhuo laughs coldly, "Only the dead could do worse."

Ji Han stares at him in astonishment.

Yan Buhuo, "Go now yourself."

Ji Han, "I..."

Yan Buhuo, "Can you understand?"

Ji Han stares blankly, lowers his head, replying tightly, "Yes."

, which is very close to

粗心大意

, which translates more closely to negligent, but I hope the idea of it is still conveyed.
