Chapter 256 The Situation is Stronger than People

Chapter 256: Circumstances Are Stronger Than People

“Ah… Lin Fan, you dare to do this to me? This means you’re at war with the Immortal Palace, and the Butian Sect won’t be able to protect you!”

The young adult from the Immortal Palace roared, his eyes bloodshot and filled with veins, but his face was pale and weak, and his entire body trembled.

Moreover, it was clear that he had lost a lot of weight compared to before, lying on the ground, without even the strength to stand.

“Hmm, still got the energy to shout? Looks like the intensity isn’t enough yet!” Lin Fan stared at him with great interest, his expression cunning beyond compare.

The next moment, he sprinkled a pile of precious medicinal powder on the peacock, phoenix, and several other female divine birds, instantly filling the air with a pink mist.

Stimulated by the powder, the divine birds became incredibly hot all over, as if a fire had been ignited within them, desperately needing release.

Naturally, their target became the Nine-Headed Bird, also a bird, and they flapped their wings, rushing towards it.

“You…”

The Immortal Palace Successor was terrified, crawling with difficulty on the ground, wanting to escape, but with his strength sealed, how could he possibly outrun a few divine birds?

“Wuwu… I don’t want… you low-grade, filthy creatures… don’t touch…”

In an instant, a fierce battle began, the scene too gruesome to behold.

In the end, Lin Fan feared that Di Chong would be completely drained, so he forcibly separated the already unconscious Di Chong.

“Dong…”

Suddenly, a bell chimed in this area, and the sound waves spread out like ripples, as if time had frozen.

“Tsk tsk tsk, as expected of you, Xiao Fanzi, you’ve truly inherited my teachings, playing quite the elaborate game…”

In the Void Realm, a woman in snow-white clothes materialized, her grace unmatched, stunningly beautiful and ethereal, almost dreamlike.

“Damn it, why is it you again, Ye Qingxian? Are you haunting me?” Lin Fan felt a chill in his heart upon seeing the newcomer.

At the same time, he hadn’t expected her to actually track him to the Butian Sect; she was truly bold, wasn’t she afraid of being discovered?

“Xiao Fanzi, I was just joking with you. Was it really necessary to run away so fast last time?” Ye Qingxian smiled faintly, her bright eyes and white teeth making her exquisitely beautiful.

Lin Fan was speechless. Was that what she called a joke? Did she think he was stupid? She robbed him as soon as she appeared, taking away a weapon.

“I’m warning you, don’t mess around. This is the Butian Sect, or I’ll call for help.”

“Is that so? Then call.”

Ye Qingxian was unconcerned. Large swathes of light emanated from her white clothes, and mysterious ripples bloomed again, enveloping the area and isolating it from the outside world.

Lin Fan looked at the changes in his surroundings, and his fair face instantly turned as black as coal, his heart sinking to the bottom.

At this moment, he finally realized that this little brat was prepared and wasn't planning on letting him off today.

But he still shouted, “Thirty years in the east of the river, thirty years in the west of the river! Don’t look down on a young man in poverty! A gentleman’s revenge is not too late after ten years…”

“Ah… don’t hit my face…”

“Boss… I was wrong…”

Lin Fan scurried away, clutching his head, howling from the beating.

After some time, silence fell upon the area. Lin Fan was bruised and swollen, his large eyes filled with indignation and fury.

“In the future, I’ll beat your ass black and blue,” he muttered softly, deeply engraving this grudge in his heart.

“Xiao Fanzi, what are you muttering about?” Ye Qingxian’s eyes narrowed slightly, a smile playing on her lips, seemingly in a very pleasant mood.

“Nothing, I’m just reminiscing about the wonderful days I spent with Boss. I’ll never forget them.”

Lin Fan’s words were insincere, but circumstances were stronger than him, so he had to bow his head.

“Cough, there’s no need for that. It’s better if you forget.” Ye Qingxian looked slightly embarrassed, remembering some past events, and instantly understood.

Time is a loop; today’s cause is tomorrow’s effect. In the end, it was himself who had tricked himself.

However, some things, once done, are difficult to undo, and what has happened in the long river of time is destined to occur.

“So… my presence here was also allowed by someone…” Ye Qingxian murmured, as if no one else was present, deep in thought about some major matters.

Lin Fan felt a chill as he was stared at, rubbing the injury on his face. It contained the power of Law, making it difficult to heal, and it was very painful.

“Boss, why are you here? Did you come specifically for me? Do you want me to give you a full body massage?” he asked cautiously.

Ye Qingxian’s nimble large eyes glanced over, her red lips slightly parted, barely suppressing a smile, and said, “It’s getting late. Next time, I still have things to do.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Fan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He wished the little brat would disappear from his sight right now; she was truly tormenting.

Next, Ye Qingxian, full of self-admiration, threw over the Human Emperor Banner, which she had taken not long ago.

She said, “This black banner is hideous. Its appearance is all black, completely mismatched with my unparalleled beauty. Here, take it back!”

At this moment, Lin Fan saw the weapon but didn’t go to pick it up. Instead, he glared at it angrily, wishing he could dismantle it.

“Buzz!”

The Human Emperor Banner seemed to sense its master’s mood and actually trembled.

“Oh, don’t blame it. What does a weapon’s spirit know? It’s just that it met me, and any weapon must submit,” Ye Qingxian said with great self-admiration.

Lin Fan directly ignored her, accustomed to this little brat’s vanity, cunning, and boastful multifaceted personality.

He asked, “Boss, do I have any other identity? Was it really just an accident that you picked me up in the No Man’s Land?”

Ye Qingxian immediately smiled and said, “Of course you have another identity, and it’s quite extraordinary. You are…”

In an instant, Lin Fan’s face was filled with anticipation, and he pricked up his ears, listening intently.

“You are my attendant! Aren’t you especially proud?” Ye Qingxian’s lips curved into a smile, her clothes fluttering, flowing with precious light, like an exiled Fairy who didn’t belong to the mortal world.

However, her words made Lin Fan want to beat her up. If he weren’t weaker than her, he would have pounced on her long ago, suppressing her and tormenting her a thousand times over.

But now, it seemed impossible to extract any truth from this clever girl.

“Hmm, I’m so happy. To be Boss’s attendant, it’s truly a blessing of three lifetimes, for us…” he said insincerely.

“Hehe, seeing how sensible you are, as your Boss, I should give you a little something, shouldn’t I?”

With that, Ye Qingxian raised her fair hand, and with a flash of light, an ancient beast hide appeared, flying to Lin Fan’s front.

“This is…” Lin Fan’s Divine Sense swept over the content, his heart filled with both shock and joy.

“Xiao Fanzi, next time we meet, don’t be such a weakling again, or you’ll make me lose face, and I’ll still want to give you a good beating.”

Ye Qingxian’s final voice came, disappearing into the Void Realm, followed by the dissipation of the Dao ripples containing time Law, and the surroundings returned to peace.

“Hmph, next time, it’ll be you begging for mercy, and even if you cry, it’ll be useless!”

Lin Fan snorted, then happily stared at the beast hide. On it was a star map, recording an Immortal Ancient Small World.

Coincidentally, this was the cultivation place he needed. To cultivate Immortal Qi and follow the Immortal Ancient Law, it was essential to do so in such an environment.

“As for you, useless weapon, go stay in the fish pond!” Lin Fan glanced at the Human Emperor Banner on the ground and kicked it into the spiritual lake.

Human Emperor Banner: “…”
