Chapter 94: An Unexpected Journey After Breakfast
The next morning, Lin Fan rose early to prepare a sumptuous breakfast for Mu Xueyan.
Golden, crispy spirit wheat pancakes, translucent spirit fruit soup, and fragrant spirit rice porridge covered the entire table.
This was the second time he had cooked for a girl himself, the first being for Lin Chen.
Mu Xueyan emerged from her room, and seeing the table full of exquisite food, stars instantly twinkled in her eyes.
She gently clutched her still-aching lower abdomen and said softly, "Master, I didn't expect you to be so good to me."
Lin Fan raised an eyebrow with a smile, "Still calling me Master? Call me Brother from now on."
Mu Xueyan's pretty face flushed slightly as she replied softly, "Okay, Brother."
Lin Fan looked at her shy appearance, a wave of warmth rising in his heart, "Good girl, hurry and taste my cooking."
Mu Xueyan nodded, picked up her chopsticks, gently lifted a piece of spirit wheat pancake, took a bite, and a happy smile appeared on her lips.
After Mu Xueyan had eaten her fill, Lin Fan took out a world-breaking pendant from his robe, his expression turning grave.
"Xue Yan, I want you to stay at home; I have to go somewhere."
Mu Xueyan frowned slightly, worry rising in her eyes, "Where are you going? Let me go with you."
"No." Lin Fan shook his head, "That place is too dangerous. It's easier for me to move freely on my own."
Mu Xueyan watched him quietly. Although she was reluctant to let him go, she didn't insist. She gently hugged Lin Fan and said softly, "Then go, I will wait for your return."
With that, she planted a light kiss on Lin Fan's cheek, her eyes filled with deep affection and trust.
Lin Fan felt a warmth in his heart, nodded solemnly, gave a hum of acknowledgment, and then rose to leave.
Mu Xueyan stood quietly at the doorway, watching Lin Fan leave. She was still as graceful as ever, as pure and beautiful as a snowflake drifting in the mountains.
As it turned out, no sooner had Lin Fan left Xue Yan's sight than he was intercepted by Su Wanqing and the three troublemakers, including Princess Hu Qinlan.
"Lin Fan, where are you running to!" Su Wanqing stood with her hands on her hips, full of Aura.
Lin Fan was stunned, "Wanqing? Why are you here?"
"We've been hiding here, just waiting for you to come out!" Su Wanqing complained with dissatisfaction, "How long has it been since you spent proper time with us?"
"But I really have things to do!" Lin Fan felt a headache coming on.
"Business is business, but you have to spend time with us first!" Princess Hu Qinlan also acted coquettishly, her eyes full of mischief.
Yin Miaoxue also added softly, "That's right, you need to make it up to us!"
Lin Fan helplessly clutched his forehead, "Ah, I really can't do anything with you all…"
Seeing the three of them closing in, Lin Fan had no choice but to grit his teeth and activate the world-breaking pendant. With a "whoosh," his figure vanished from the spot.
"Lin Fan! You ran away again!" Su Wanqing stomped her feet in anger, "This heartless man! As his head wife, I'm living like a widow every day; I can't stand this frustration!"
A flash of determination crossed her eyes as she turned to Princess Hu Qinlan and the others, "Let's go! We'll find Lin Chen; she definitely knows where Lin Fan is!"
Princess Hu Qinlan and Princess Jin Xuan replied in unison, "Okay!"
The group marched aggressively toward Lin Chen's Qimeng Courtyard, vowing to drag Lin Fan back to "hold him accountable."
When they arrived at Qimeng Courtyard, Lin Chen was squatting by the flower bed, carefully watering the tulips with diluted spirit dew.
Su Wanqing was the first to rush forward anxiously, "Lin Chen! You're still watering flowers? Lin Fan has already run off!"
Lin Chen looked up calmly, "He can't run; I know where he is."
Su Wanqing pressed, "Tell us quickly! Where is he?"
Lin Chen hesitated, "Is that really appropriate…"
"What's inappropriate about it? Hurry up!" Su Wanqing stomped her feet in anxiety.
Princess Hu Qinlan chimed in from the side, "That's right, Sister Lin Chen, don't hesitate!"
Lin Chen sighed softly, "Alright…"
She helplessly took out the glowing nano cube.
The quantum phone that Lin Fan carried was a creation of the nano cube, so the nano cube could naturally track his location.
It was just that Lin Chen had never used it. She had always believed that location information was Lin Fan's privacy and should not be pried into.
As the cube's location tracking activated, it released a brilliant screen of energy particles.
The space-time map on the screen expanded wildly, weaving together into a vast Universe.
A few seconds later, the particles quickly focused, pinning down Lin Fan's location.
Late Chaos Era, Order Year 712!
Su Wanqing widened her eyes in shock, "Chaos Era! This kid ran off to a chaotic world again!"
Lin Chen looked worried, "Is it dangerous there?"
Su Wanqing's expression was complex, "The late Chaos Era is an extremely turbulent age… What on earth is Lin Fan trying to do?"
Su Wanqing clenched her fists, "No! We're going too! This guy is becoming more and more lawless!"
Lin Chen nodded gently, "Okay, let's go find him together."
She took out the incomplete world-breaking pendant that Xiao Du had originally created, opened a mirror channel, and gave chase.
Little did they know that they were the reckless ones; what Xiao Du had made was just an incomplete version. If they went over, there was a chance they might never return.
Chaos Era, year 712. The flames of war were everywhere. The air was filled with the pungent smell of gunpowder smoke. Everywhere were broken walls and ruined buildings. The dilapidated city walls had long been destroyed by war; rubble was scattered across the ground, and charred wood was still emitting smoke.
In the distance, the faint sounds of clashing metal and screams could be heard; the atmosphere of war was suffocating.
Lin Fan landed, his feet stepping on the charred earth, just as he was about to survey the surrounding situation.
Suddenly, a distorted mirror channel appeared in the sky, rippling like water.
"Young Master!"
Lin Chen, Su Wanqing, and Princess Hu Qinlan emerged smiling from the mirror channel, their skirts fluttering, looking like Fairies who had mistakenly stumbled onto a battlefield.
Lin Fan looked bewildered, "How did you follow me here?"
Su Wanqing clapped her hands triumphantly, "Hmph, we aren't that easy to shake off."
Lin Chen shook the incomplete world-breaking pendant in her hand, looking a bit embarrassed, "The channel Xiao Du made… it wasn't very stable, but it seems it succeeded."
Lin Fan's pupils constricted, "Don't you know this thing is incomplete? What if it overloads, what then!"
Princess Hu Qinlan stuck out her tongue slightly, "Uh… well, luckily our lives are tough."
Lin Fan rubbed his forehead, "This is truly reckless."
"It's useless to say that now!" Su Wanqing smiled and moved closer to Lin Fan, "Since we're here, we can't just stand here and wait to be hit."
Lin Fan sighed helplessly, "Forget it. Since you're here, stay close to me and don't run around."
The group nodded. They hadn't followed Lin Fan for more than a few steps when several meteorites came crashing down toward them.
Lin Fan's eyes turned cold as he whisked them away, dashing behind a broken stone wall.
Several massive meteorites trailing scorching flames slammed down, causing the ground to shake violently as rubble and dust flew everywhere.
No sooner had they dodged those than a few more came, bypassing the stone wall from the other side to strike.
"Who is targeting us?" Su Wanqing frowned tightly, "These meteorites don't look like they fell naturally; it's more like someone is controlling them!"
