Chapter 50: Playing the Lute to a Cow
Chapter 50: Talking to a Brick Wall
Lin Fan stood in the Void Realm like a monarch, looking down upon the world, his back profound, his black hair fluttering, each strand glistening, possessing a demeanor unbefitting his age.
“Chi!”
The next moment, he took another step, as if everything around him was shifting, mountains and rivers changing, returning to their original positions.
“As expected of the Human Race’s ultimate Divine Ability for speed. In the sect, only a few people are qualified to cultivate it. For Young Master to have cultivated it to the point of covering four to five hundred zhang in a single step is truly astonishing,” Yu Lao said with reverence.
“What’s most terrifying is Young Master’s talent. Without using Magical Artifacts, he killed a group of Spiritual Transformation Realm Cultivators with just his Physical Body. Even the people of the Western Sect can’t compare… He’s terrifying!”
Granny Xihua exclaimed. She now understood why Lin Fan didn’t care about Shi Yi; he truly didn’t need to, as he was capable enough to look down on all others!
“Are there still rats?” Lin Fan suddenly glanced towards a distant corner but didn’t pay much attention, quickly retracting his gaze and having no intention of striking again.
“What astonishing intuition…” Shi Ziteng’s heart pounded, and his eyebrows twitched.
At the same time, he let out a sigh of relief, grateful that he hadn’t been like those idiotic pigs, unable to restrain themselves and taking action, only observing from afar.
“I thought Shi Yi’s talent was already abnormal enough, but there’s actually a Prodigy with even stronger talent in this world!”
“Nine Princess, these two children only arrived in the Imperial Capital today. They probably don’t belong to the Barren Region but come from an Immortal Great Sect outside this domain,” the bronze-skinned middle-aged man whispered.
“Wouldn’t that be even better? With strong enough talent and great enough influence, if I can befriend them and gain their help, my chances will be even greater!” the Ninth Princess of Stone Country smiled, rising and walking out with graceful steps.
At this moment, Lin Fan stretched his body, waved at the stunned Yue Chan, and playfully said, “Wife, has your husband’s heroic demeanor captivated you?”
Upon hearing this, Yue Chan rolled her eyes in exasperation. He truly couldn’t be serious for more than three seconds, immediately reverting to his scoundrel self.
However, she couldn’t help but marvel at his strength. She was far behind him; she was only at the Eighth Heavenly Cave now, having reached the extreme of the Heavenly Cave Realm. It would take at least another seven or eight months to advance to the Spiritual Transformation Realm.
“Where are we going now?” Yue Chan asked, dressed in white, pristine and unblemished, with a veil covering her face, giving her a hazy aura.
“To gain experience, of course,” Lin Fan was saying when two familiar figures walked towards them on the long street.
The Ninth Princess of Stone Country wore a red dress, like a blazing fire, making her incredibly eye-catching on the street.
Especially her fair and slender long legs, smooth and luminous, flawless and pure, subtly revealed beneath her dress, alluring to the heart.
“Hello again, two little brothers and sisters,” Nine Princess smiled sweetly, her voice very gentle, completely devoid of the imperious attitude she had at the auction. At this moment, she seemed like a kind elder sister from next door.
“Oh, Little Chili, have you had a sex change? Your voice is so… forced, it makes me very unaccustomed to it,” Lin Fan teased, having known all along that someone was observing them from a tall building.
“You…” Nine Princess’s fair forehead twitched with black lines upon hearing this.
If not to avoid attracting the attention of the other princes too early, she wouldn’t want to be like this, pretending to be a spoiled and willful princess every day.
But soon, her heart calmed down, and a gentle smile remained on her pretty face. She said, “Before was a misunderstanding. I apologize here. I wonder if I could have the honor of inviting the two of you for a drink.”
However, Lin Fan refused without even thinking, “I’m busy. I still prefer you when you’re arrogant and untamed; that’s more interesting.”
Nine Princess gritted her teeth, and it seemed as if fire was spurting from her upturned nostrils, her full forehead nearly bulging with veins. This little brat’s words were truly infuriating.
“Pfft!”
Beside her, Yue Chan covered her mouth and chuckled. Indeed, she wasn’t the only one who found this guy incredibly annoying; he was like this with everyone.
“Don’t be angry, don’t be angry!” Nine Princess gently patted her small chest, trying to maintain her composure. After all, she had offended him earlier.
“Little brother, I sincerely want to invite you for a drink to apologize. I can also compensate you for your losses at the auction house previously.”
“I’ve received your apology. As for a drink, forget it. I still have things to do. Goodbye!” Lin Fan finished speaking, turned, and pulled Yue Chan away without lingering.
He was too lazy to get entangled with someone he wouldn’t have much interaction with in the future. Moreover, this Ninth Princess of Stone Country clearly had a scheming mind, and he didn’t want to deal with her.
Watching Lin Fan walk away, Nine Princess stomped her foot in anger. No one had ever directly rejected her like this before; it was truly infuriating.
Sometimes, after pretending to be a willful princess for too long, one naturally adopts the role, inevitably changing some habits, and easily gets angry.
Seeing his own princess suffer a setback, the bronze-skinned middle-aged man said, “Nine Princess, should I go and…”
Suddenly, a powerful pressure descended, making the man’s heart pound violently, as if he had fallen into a frozen Hell. He immediately shut his mouth, not daring to speak further.
Nine Princess naturally noticed her attendant’s abnormality and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Not long after, the pressure disappeared, and the man let out a heavy breath, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead. He replied, “Just now, I felt a powerful pressure, similar to the feeling His Majesty gives me.”
Nine Princess was startled: “You mean…”
“Those two children have powerful guardians protecting them, warning me not to have any ideas,” the bronze-skinned middle-aged man said with extreme dread.
In that instant, he felt as if he had walked around the edge of life and death, it was terrifying. Even with the strength of the Inscription Realm, he immediately felt powerless.
Outside the Imperial City of Stone Country.
“Young Master, that girl clearly has ill intentions. Should I go teach her a lesson? Even if the Human Emperor of Stone Country is in the Imperial Capital, I am confident I can capture her,” Granny Xihua’s eyes gleamed with fierce light.
“No need. She’s just a princess from the Lower Realm; I don’t even put her in my eyes,” Lin Fan shook his head, stopping her. His magnanimity wasn’t that small.
Furthermore, such incidents wouldn’t be rare for him in the future. It was impossible to fight everyone he met; he’d either die of exhaustion or annoyance!
Granny Xihua sighed, “Young Master, you are just too kind.”
Yue Chan, beside him, was speechless. For flattery, Granny Xihua was truly speaking nonsense with her eyes open.
This guy didn’t have a single ounce of kindness. Hadn’t she seen him tearing apart enemies earlier? He was more brutal than anyone.
Lin Fan was neither happy nor sad about her flattery. He said, “Alright, next, Granny and Yu Lao should explore the Barren Region on your own. My and Saintess’s experience doesn’t require you to follow.”
At this moment, Granny Xihua and Yu Lao were both startled and advised, “Young Master, you cannot! If something were to happen to you, we couldn’t bear the responsibility…”
“What could happen? Let alone a Venerable, even a Divine Fire Realm Cultivator, I can blast them to death with a forbidden artifact,” Lin Fan waved his hand.
Finally, annoyed beyond measure, he threatened them that if they continued to follow, he would directly kill them with a forbidden artifact, acting incredibly brutal and tough, and even said he would make things difficult for them in the future.
Suddenly, both of them were stunned, caught between laughter and tears, and could only helplessly depart.
“Crack!”
A sound of the Void Realm shattering rang out. Lin Fan used a spatial Magical Artifact, traversing the Void Realm, taking Yue Chan directly away, straight to the western border of Stone Country.
He didn’t want too many people to know about the Legacy of the Supreme Hall.
After they left, Granny Xihua complained, “Old Man Yu, why didn’t you also try to persuade him? How could you just let Young Master and Saintess leave? What if something happens?”
Yu Lao sighed. This Xi Hua was truly single-minded and didn’t understand the deeper meaning. He explained, “Young Master clearly has some things he doesn’t want us to know, so he only took Saintess. Moreover, it’s a good opportunity for the two of them to be alone and develop their feelings. What would it look like if we followed them?”
“What’s the big deal? We can just pretend not to see or hear, can’t we?” Granny Xihua retorted.
Yu Lao stopped talking. There was no point in talking to this millennia-old virgin; explaining was a waste of time, like talking to a brick wall.
