26 13 - Almost... Almost There... Ah!?
*squish squeeze* 'ah~' whispered out Yang Xin in a barely audible tone.
Currently riding inside a carriage, a really tight one, are Fang Lin, Xiao Ning'er, Ye Ziyun, Yang Xin, and Xiao Bai who is resting on Ziyun's laps. The seat arrangements are Fang Lin and Yang Xin at his left on one side, while the other side consists Ning'er, Ziyun, and Xiao Bai with a mini table taken out from his Spatial Ring in the middle where food and drinks are placed.
*rub rub* 'mmm~' let out Yang Xin again with her ever present blush since a while ago.
After two days of rough travel in a cramped carriage, Fang Lin really wanted to slam his head into a block of tofu to end his miserable existence. The reason of course is because Fang Lin hald finally realized that he could have just used 'Long Distance Observation' magic and then teleport everyone over in a magic circle when they were only half a day away from reaching their destination.
*squeeze rub twist* 'ugh, uuu~' let out another sound as Yang Xin rubs her legs against each other, twisting in her seat still with her ever present blushing face.
Well... to be honest, it wasn't actually that bad of a journey if you look at it another way. While the bodyguards Yang Xin brought had to stay outside during their travel, Fang Lin himself gets to stay with 3 beauties inside a cramped carriage. It was so cramped in fact, that Ning'er and Yun'er, with their smaller frames, still had to sit with both shoulders touching. During the entire rides, Fang Lin's hands would always 'roam places' yet none of them ever said anything about it except some blushes here and there.
*squeeze knead knead* 'ahn~'. (hm? that was definitely a moan just now...) thought Fang Lin.
Seeing such a reaction, or rather the non reaction from Ning'er and Ziyun, Fang Lin couldn't help but thought (Hm, with Yang Xin's status and wealth, there's no way she couldn't afford a bigger, more luxurious carriage than this. She... couldn't have chosen this small one on purpose... right? Also Ning'er and Yun'er... your man is currently taking liberties with another woman here...! At least have some sort of reaction, oi! With our current levels, I know for a fact that you girls can notice the slight movements and change in expression especially in such an enclosed space. Are they really okay with this...? Should I go for a more bold approach to absolutely sure?)
.

How this came about... well, it was about 2 hours or so after they started their little journey actually. Their seating arrangement then was Fang Lin with Ziyun and Xiao Bai, then Yang Xin with Ning'er. As they were happily chatting, the carriage suddenly hit a big pothole because their driver wasn't paying attention (fuck this guy needs to get fired or something).
The resultant shake and sudden brake caused Yang Xin who was sitting in front of Fang Lin to come flying into him while Ning'er into Ziyun. It wouldn't have been that bad a thing but when Yang Xin flew over, she somehow landed on one of his thigh with her crotch grinding on him. The finishing touch, Fang Lin acted on reflex and put his hands out to catch... her impressive breasts.
Suddenly having some marshmallows in his hands, as a male, Fang Lin couldn't help but unconsciously squeeze causing Yang Xin to let out a... very seductive moan. Hearing Yang Xin's sudden voice caused him to wake up with a start and he finally realized the compromising situation he was in. This in turn caused him to have cold sweat running down his back considering his girls were right there 😰 and yet... his hands couldn't help but kept on squeezing! (Curse you, teenage hormones!!)
While Fang Lin was fearing for his life, he of course didn't dare to look at Ning'er and Ziyun's directions. This in turn caused him to missed the glints in their eyes as if a nefarious plan was being hatched then and there. ---cough--- "Ah... sorry. A-are you okay? That was a pretty bad brake..." awkwardly said Fang Lin as he finally, very reluctantly, removed his hands. Yang Xin on the hand just sat there on his lap with a big blush and didn't say anything which made everything even more awkward in the carriage. (Aaah! please say something at least! I don't think I can take this awkwardness any longer! 😭😭😭😭😭)
.

Ever since that time, their seating arrangements were changed to what it currently is now. Of course Fang Lin didn't start doing it as soon as the seats were rearranged... at which greatly confused Fang Lin at first on why they did. The real reason why all this started was because he felt Yang Xin was getting a little too touchy feely with him. This of course made Fang Lin uncomfortable since Ziyun and Ning'er were only a arm's distance away in front of him... And in order for her to stop with all the groping, he did it back to her as prank, hoping that she would stop yet... she didn't and it kept going and escalating since.
As for Yang Xin's feelings for him, of course Fang Lin had noticed it for awhile now. In the beginning. he might not have been sure due to the constant teasing and treating him like one would a younger brother however, the more he kept in contact and interacted with her, which had been a lot... almost 5 nights a week since coming to this world in fact, the bolder she acts with him.
Not to mention, when he had introduced her to Ning'er and Ziyun, she kept on changing expressions until finally, she had a determined face on. From then on, she seemed to have put in a lot effort and finally have actually gotten pretty close to the girls. All of that combined with the fact that accident in their early stretch of the ride, if Fang Lin still didn't understand her feelings and what it is she's trying to do... he might as well cut off his own 'JJ' and call himself 'Miss Fang' from now on!
In his right hand, Fang Lin is currently holding a cup as he sips his tea in a tranquil manner. As for the left one on the other hand... it is shamelessly rubbing, squeezing, and kneading that soft... soft mound of flesh that is Yang Xin's, underneath her alchemist robe in the disguise that he is wrapping around her back due to lack of space. Not that anyone in the carriage were fooled by this of course with the exception of the little loli, Xiao Bai.
(Hm... from the way I can feel her heartbeat beating faster and faster and her squirming... she's definitely... excited) thought Fang Lin with an imperceptible smirk. With resolution in his mind, Fang Lin decided go a bit further today as a final test to confirm Yang Xin's feelings for him. As for Ning'er and Ziyun... well since they're not saying anything they must have one way or another approved of this. And if he's lucky... what he's about to do might lead to a really saucy situations...!
Not wasting anymore time, Fang let go of that soft mound and slowly slid his hand slowly downward. When he reached her navel, Yang Xin jerked a little while actually having a look of... anticipation...? while Ning'er and Ziyun still pretended to not notice anything (who are they trying to fool? really... oh wait, Xiao Bai... duh). Feeling emboldened by their non reactions, Fang Lin slid his hand even further down... towards her other secret place. (Just... a bit more....!) When all Fang Lin had to do was move another centimeter...

*BOOM!*
The carriage was suddenly blown apart by a powerful blast! With the fate of their carriage driver and guards unknown, everyone jumped out of the rubbles in hurry while quickly casting senses around for the attacker. In Fang Lin, Ning'er, and Xiao Bai's cases, they were looking for the level indicator as no beast or man had been able to hide from the system as of yet. Judging by the heat they felt from the blast... it was either something like a bomb... or a sort of Fire Inscription... something that the Sacred Family is known for!
"You girls alright?" asked Fang Lin worriedly as he continued to scan his surroundings. Well... he was actually asking more for Ye Ziyun and Yang Xin as Ning'er had her absolute defense and Xiao Bai's physique is just really obscenely tough...
"No problem for me" replied Yang Xin as she was also wearily scanning around. Not too surprising actually since Yang Xin had just recently broke into the Black Gold rank sometime ago due to the elixirs' formula he'd given her long before Nie Li came into the picture.
"Just a little scratch... but I'm fine" hesitantly replied Ye Ziyun as she discretely popped a pill into her mouth. Giving her a cursory glance, he noticed that one of her arms was broken! Right... she's putting up a strong front so she don't appear weak to the attackers. But... to dare harm one of his women while within his presence... they dare! Even worse... they interrupted him when things were about to get good!
"You...!" growled out Fang Lin with eyes narrowed in fury as he found a group of masked people past the smokes and rubbles that used to be their carriage. Noticing the levels above their head, Fang Lin whispered towards his group "One 2-Star Black Gold, one 1-Star Black Gold, 6 Gold Rank and the other dozen are all silvers."
While Ning'er and Xiao Bai could see their levels, they weren't as surprised as Ziyun and Yang Xin when they heard the strength of those masked people. --gasp!!-- "2 Black Golds? with a group like that... there's no way this is just a random encounter...! We are definitely their targets and from the looks of it.. they really don't want to fail. Is it because of my status as a director of the alchemist association and Ziyun's status as City Lord's daughter?" asked Yang Xin worriedly.
Before she could say anything further, all the masked men charged in to attack with the exception of those two Black Gold ranks and strangely, one Silver rank (that silver rank bastard must be someone important! got to capture him while the rest.. they can die!)... Thinking quickly, Fang Lin uttered "Xiao Bai, on Yun'er! Ning'er, flanks! and Xin'er, watch our rear!" before he took out 'Black Dao' and covered it in flame.
With a roar, Fang Lin stomped the ground hard and suddenly, a magical circle appeared beneath the masked people and fire erupted, instantly killing most of the silver ranks. Before the fire had the chance to die down, Fang Lin charged in and lashed out with his sword still wreathed in fire.
*sheeeng! fwoosh! fwoosh! BANG!*
With a quick slash which only looked like a blur, 4 Gold Ranks died on the spot! One of them was even cut down in 2 pieces, armor along with weapon and all! Though shocked at first, due to experience they quickly recovered and continued their attack. The last two Gold Ranks and the Silver Ranks that didn't die quickly aimed for Fang Lin's limbs hoping to destroy his limbs. (Not aiming to kill...? An abduction mission!?)
Before they could complete their motion to attack however, Ning'er suddenly appeared besides the two Gold Ranks and lashed out with her Katana! Because of her unexpected intrusion, they couldn't react properly and both were cut down instantly ending their lives. As for the rest of the Silver Ranks, they were also burned to death with multiple 'Fire Lance' piercing their bodies.
With the difference in their levels, even if Ning'er didn't appear, those clowns still wouldn't stand a chance against Fang Lin even if a few dozens more of these guys at peak condition showed up let alone these few already half dead ones. Before the dead bodies even had a chance to fall however, both Ning'er and Fang Lin felt the air stir and quickly put up their swords to guard.
*DING!* *DING!*
Ning'er with her petite frame and lighter weight was instantly blown away into the woods some distance away. Her attacker, the muscular looking one of the Black Gold ranks, chased after her in a dash. Fang Lin on the other hand had a stronger physique could resist the blow easier and didn't fly away. Instead, he only skidded back a couple of of meters.
(Xiao Bai! Take Ning'er and Xin'er and go capture that guy in the back! Alive!) sent Fang Lin towards Xiao Bai when he noticed him trying to sneak away unnoticed. "You have some nerves... to attack us like that... Sacred Family!" shouted Fang Lin which made the lanky masked widen his eyes a little before he got in a stance ready to attack once more. Fang Lin who noticed his intent, got into a stance of his own. Nothing happened for awhile until suddenly, a strong gust of wind blew by. Taking that as the cue, both combatants charged forth, ready to start their dance of steel and death!
