Chapter 5830: Controlling Xiao Fan Step by Step!

"Hehehe… So, Xiao Fan, how are the feelings between you and your wife? Have things been well lately?"

Xiao Fan: "…"

Hearing this, Xiao Fan fell silent for a moment. In just that brief span of time, he considered countless possibilities.

Why on earth was Immortal King Chiling asking about this?!

What was he thinking?!

What did he mean by this?!

The relationship between him and Ye Miaoyin—wasn't that their private business?!

As an Immortal King, why would Immortal King Chiling ask about such a thing?!

Was he out of his mind?!

"Hmm? Why aren't you speaking? Xiao Fan!"

"Ah? No… the bond between my wife and me has always been as firm as gold. Our love is a testament for the sun and moon to see, a witness for heaven and earth!" Xiao Fan said earnestly.

"A testament for the sun and moon? Is that so?" Hearing this, Immortal King Chiling's expression darkened several shades.

Xiao Fan was bewildered, completely unable to fathom the other man's thoughts.

He had a good relationship with his wife; was Immortal King Chiling jealous?!

What did he have to be jealous of?!

"Lord Immortal King, you… you are…"

"Hehehe… It's nothing. You may go back now." Immortal King Chiling gave a cold laugh and waved his hand.

"Oh… alright. This Disciple takes his leave." Xiao Fan nodded, turned, and left.

He muttered to himself, wondering if Immortal King Chiling really did have a daughter.

Had he given up because he heard that Xiao Fan's bond with his wife was as firm as gold?!

Don't say it.

There really was such a possibility.

Of course.

Whether Immortal King Chiling had a daughter or not had nothing to do with Xiao Fan anymore.

If possible, Xiao Fan still didn't want to provoke Immortal King Chiling.

After all, with his current strength, he couldn't oppose an Immortal King. If he enraged the other party, he would be the one suffering.

Watching Xiao Fan's departing back, Immortal King Chiling seethed with anger.

"Dammit… 'firm as gold' indeed! 'A testament for the sun and moon' indeed! Ye Miaoyin…" Immortal King Chiling gritted his teeth, his face grim and his fists clenched tight.

Xiao Fan would never have imagined that Immortal King Chiling had taken a fancy to his beauty.

If Xiao Fan knew the truth, his expression would surely be a sight to behold.

"Truly strange…" On the way back to his Immortal Cave, Xiao Fan kept pondering Immortal King Chiling's words.

Why was the other party suddenly acting so weird?!

What was the reason for this?!

Combined with Huangfu Hao's previous warning and the attitude of everyone in the Lingxian You Palace toward him—as well as the value of the gifts they sent—

This matter was not simple!

Not simple at all!

Soon, Xiao Fan returned to the Immortal Cave.

Ye Miaoyin asked what Xiao Fan had gone to do.

"I gave the gifts to Immortal King Chiling! I am an upright person! I cannot use the Immortal King's name to line my own pockets!" Xiao Fan said seriously.

Hearing this, Ye Miaoyin, Xiao Xuan, Xiao Li, and Xiao Qing all fell silent.

After a full five breaths of silence, Ye Miaoyin nodded expressionlessly. "Well done!"

Xiao Fan grinned and looked at Xiao Xuan and the others. "You all need to go Cultivate. Don't be slack."

Xiao Xuan, Xiao Li, and Xiao Qing exchanged glances and turned to return to their respective rooms.

Xiao Fan put his arm around Ye Miaoyin and went back to their room for some sweet time together.

Xiao Fan not lining his own pockets?!

What a joke!

Ye Miaoyin and the others naturally knew Xiao Fan's character best.

It was just a pity that Immortal King Chiling didn't know…

Inside the Lingxian You Palace, everything that happened was under Immortal King Chiling's control.

"Hehehe… Truly not bad. His character is good too. It's just a pity… about this woman…" Immortal King Chiling murmured, a flash of killing intent in his eyes.

Clearly.

Immortal King Chiling planned to eliminate Ye Miaoyin and take Xiao Fan for himself.

But to strike directly?

Wouldn't that create a rift between him and Xiao Fan?!

After all, forced fruit isn't sweet!

Immortal King Chiling intended to take it slow, step by step, to gain control over Xiao Fan!

He wanted Xiao Fan to fall in love with him from the bottom of his heart!

If Xiao Fan knew about this, he would probably flee the Lingxian You Palace overnight…

After hesitating for a moment, Immortal King Chiling called in several trusted aides and spoke of his thoughts.

As the Immortal King's confidants, they had naturally long since guessed his inner desires.

Afterward, these confidants began to offer suggestions…

"Lord Immortal King! We can do this… You should nurture Xiao Fan well, then send Ye Miaoyin out… then find an opportunity to deal with her! Wouldn't that be killing two birds with one stone!"

"Hehehe… That's not bad." Immortal King Chiling nodded.

"But! If we do that! Won't it be too obvious? If Xiao Fan finds out! Won't he…"

"How about this! Use Huangfu Hao? Make it look like Ye Miaoyin and Huangfu Hao are fooling around together? That way, Xiao Fan will be heartbroken! Hahaha… they'll naturally break up!"

"…"
