Chapter 4: Eliminating Tyranny on a Rainy Night, Returning to the Immortal Domain
Upon hearing the villager's reply, Lin Fan's gaze sharpened, and he said coldly, "Let's go. Let's go meet this soldier."
Just then, a village woman walked over, her eyes full of worry.
"Young Master, please, do not go. That soldier is a ruthless character; he has threatened many villagers and even snatched girls from the village. If you go, I fear you will bring trouble upon yourselves."
Lin Fan smiled slightly. "Rest assured, I know what I'm doing." With that, he led the group toward the center of the village.
Passing through streets that looked like ruins, they finally arrived at the center of the village.
The atmosphere here was completely different from elsewhere; several soldiers were patrolling the area, their eyes cold and intimidating.
On the grassy area in the village center, several armored soldiers were sitting around a campfire, roasting a chicken that was emitting black smoke, cursing and swearing:
"Damn it, how unlucky. It hasn't rained in years, and now that I'm roasting a chicken, it starts to rain. Fuck!"
"Boss, look over there." A soldier nearby patted the commander, who was poking at the roasted chicken.
The soldier turned his head and looked, his gaze immediately becoming lecherous. "Heh heh, luck is on my side today. To think there are so many fresh-looking girls coming to throw themselves into my arms."
He licked his lips, his gaze sweeping over Princess Hu Qinlan, Lin Chen, and the others, the greed in his eyes becoming even more apparent.
Lin Fan raised an eyebrow slightly, his tone cold. "Get lost."
"Oh? What did you say?" The soldier sneered as he stood up, threatening, "I advise you to be sensible. Since I've laid eyes on these girls, they belong to me now."
Lin Chen took a slight step back behind Lin Fan, feeling somewhat nervous. Su Wanqing, on the other hand, frowned, her gaze unfriendly.
Lin Fan's expression remained unchanged. He said in a low voice, "Since you are courting death, I will grant your wish."
The leading soldier seemed to sense something was wrong and threatened in a deep voice, "Kid, do you know who we are? If you dare to lay a hand on us, you are courting death!"
Lin Fan didn't waste words. His figure moved like lightning, and he instantly rushed in front of the soldier.
Without any Spiritual Qi fluctuations, relying purely on the strength of his Physical Body, he threw a heavy punch directly into the soldier's abdomen.
"Thud!" The soldier's body flew backward, soaring into the air before crashing heavily into the mud, a mouthful of blood gushing out.
The remaining soldiers were terrified. Before they could react, Lin Fan was already upon them like a fierce tiger descending from the mountain, his fists and kicks sweeping through.
Every strike was clean and decisive, carrying the powerful strength of a Body Cultivator.
In the curtain of rain, Lin Fan moved like a gale; wherever he went, the soldiers all fell to the ground.
Within a few breaths, these arrogant soldiers were all knocked to the ground, wailing incessantly.
Lin Fan's expression was calm, as if he had done something insignificant. He casually tied them all up, binding them tightly.
At this moment, Princess Jin Xuan walked over, holding a wet fire poker, her eyes filled with playfulness.
"Weren't you all very arrogant? You wanted to have this young lady, do you want to taste this?"
The soldiers were scared pale and begged for mercy repeatedly, "Fairy, spare us! We won't dare to do it again!"
Lin Chen, who was on the side, had no heart for watching this good show. She frowned slightly, her eyes filled with worry.
"Lin Fan, I want to return to the Canglan Immortal Domain," Lin Chen said in a low voice. "I've discovered that my Spiritual Qi is constantly being consumed but cannot be replenished."
"If this continues, I will soon become an ordinary person, without even the ability to protect myself."
Su Wanqing and Yin Miaoxue also revealed expressions of worry; the Heavenly Court could just produce a Grand Unity Golden Immortal out of nowhere, and even with cultivation, it wouldn't be enough to see.
"Young Master, send us back. This place is not fun at all. We will return to the Canglan Immortal Domain and wait for you. Take care of yourself."
Lin Fan was slightly taken aback and refused. "Since we're already here, why go back? Rest assured, I won't let anyone hurt you."
Lin Chen bit her lip and said softly, "Fan, send us back. I don't want to be here."
Lin Fan refused again. "Hey, why go back? I know that you are just…"
At this moment, Su Wanqing suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Lin Fan's ear. "What's this? You won't even listen to Lin Chen's words now!"
"I'm listening, I'm listening! I'll send you back." Lin Fan cried out in pain.
"Princess Jin Xuan, stop playing. We're going back." Lin Chen reminded her softly.
Princess Jin Xuan was having a great time playing with the fire poker, emitting sounds of triumphant laughter.
"Huh? Going back?" Princess Jin Xuan was stunned for a moment and turned to look at Lin Fan and Lin Chen.
"Yes!" Lin Chen nodded.
"Alright!" Princess Jin Xuan pouted, somewhat unsatisfied, and helplessly threw the fire poker on the ground.
Seeing her movements, Lin Fan felt a tightening in his gut; this girl was too fierce.
"Alright!" Lin Fan collected his thoughts and said solemnly, "After you go back, stay at home properly. Don't sneak out again."
"We know!" The girls replied in unison, giggling.
Lin Fan took a deep breath and raised his hand to activate the complete version of the world-breaking pendant. Suddenly, a dazzling Spiritual light enveloped everyone, and the Void Realm trembled.
The group turned into six brilliant rays of light, shooting straight into the sky like meteors cutting through the curtain of rain.
— — Canglan Immortal Domain, in front of Qimeng Courtyard.
The sky was suddenly torn open with a crack, and the six rays of light, carrying Spiritual Qi fluctuations, shot down and instantly landed on the plaza in front of the courtyard.
The light dispersed, and the figures of Lin Fan, Princess Jin Xuan, Lin Chen, Princess Hu Qinlan, and Su Wanqing appeared.
The air was still filled with a faint fragrance of flowers, and the Spiritual Qi was gentle and moist, as if completely different from the exhausting environment outside.
"Finally back!" Princess Jin Xuan stretched and said with a grin, "At least we don't have to deal with those blind soldiers anymore."
Lin Fan looked around, his gaze softening slightly. "Rest well for a while."
Suddenly, he turned to look at Lin Chen. "By the way, Lin Chen, give me your world-breaking pendant."
Lin Chen was stunned, lowering her head and muttering reluctantly, "Why? I really won't sneak over there again!"
Lin Fan couldn't help but chuckle. "No! I want to let Xiao Du take a look and see if she can upgrade yours by analyzing my complete version."
"Heh heh, so that's it." Lin Chen's eyes lit up, her tone filled with joy. "Then take it."
She handed the world-breaking pendant to Lin Fan without hesitation, her face full of anticipation.
"Xiao Du, come out and see if you can upgrade it."
A streak of Spiritual light flickered before him, and a petite, delicate virtual figure leaped out from the System space.
Xiao Du nimbly took the world-breaking pendant and weighed it a few times. "Let me try. It will take about three days."
After saying this, she didn't waste any more words and immediately returned to the System space with the world-breaking pendant.
Su Wanqing looked at Lin Fan with a half-smile. "Brother Fan, how do you plan to spend these three days?"
Lin Fan chuckled, a sly light flashing in his eyes. "Isn't that perfect? I'll spend the first day with you, the second day with Xue Yan, and the third day with Lin Chen."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yin Miaoxue, Princess Jin Xuan, and Princess Hu Qinlan were displeased and protested one after another, "No way, no way! What about us!"
Lin Fan rubbed his nose, his face full of embarrassment. "Aren't the three of you my accompanying attendants? You can tag along these three days if you want."
"Good, this is good!" Princess Jin Xuan's eyes lit up, and she immediately raised her hand in agreement, appearing particularly excited.
Su Wanqing pouted in dissatisfaction and muttered softly, "The treatment for accompanying attendants is too good. Maybe I should be an accompanying attendant instead. Whoever wants this 'First Wife' status can have it!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Fan couldn't help but laugh while holding his forehead. "You really know how to pick a status!"
"I'm not switching. You have to be the First Wife."
"I'm not switching either; being an accompanying attendant is more comfortable."
