Inside the conference room, everyone sat with serious expressions.
"Another group of Starry Sky Clan descendants has arrived in Yanhai City. Based on the current situation, our initial success and establishing good relationships with the Starry Sky Clans are necessary. Making too many enemies isn't a wise choice," One-Eyed Man said.
He was in a difficult position. There were too many Starry Sky Clans. If they fought them all, they might not be able to withstand it.
Lin Daoming said, "It's unnecessary. We're only receiving the descendants. They hold no real power. When their clan elders arrive, whether they're friend or foe is uncertain."
"Have some faith in yourself," One-Eyed Man said in a deep voice.
Under these circumstances where everyone needed encouragement, Lin Daoming's words were a bit of a damper, but his words weren't entirely unreasonable. At least in the future, it was hard to say what the situation would be.
Master Yongxin and Liu Haichan remained silent.
They went with the flow and wouldn't take the initiative in anything. Whatever the situation, they would let others decide, completely disregarding their opinions.
However, if there were benefits involved…
They would absolutely be the first to push their way to the front.
Lin Daoming said faintly, "There's really no need for this. We have Lin Fan. As long as we follow his lead, there's nothing we can't resolve. Those Starry Sky Clans are unreliable. Haven't you heard the saying, 'Those who are not of our kind, their hearts are different'? They appear friendly and peaceful, but in reality, they harbor malicious intentions."
"Besides, have these Starry Sky Clan descendants been helpful to us?"
"No. Even the Wu Clan, who has the best relationship with us now, is only happy because of mutual cooperation. Once the cooperative relationship is gone, the relationship will cease to exist."
One-Eyed Man frowned and said, "So, you mean, we fight?"
"Besides this, what other options are there? We have Lin Fan," Lin Daoming said.
Liu Haichan glanced at Lin Daoming in surprise. This old fellow was quite firm, speaking with such confidence. He didn't know what Lin Daoming had been eating lately. First, his strength increased, and now he was so assertive.
It was very strange.
One-Eyed Man sighed, "Even if we have Lin Fan, he's not the only solution. What about the future?"
"He is our only savior. We clearly have the strongest backing, yet we insist on acting so cowardly. It's completely unnecessary. Take those clan descendants, for example. They're here, eating and drinking for free, especially that Eighth Prince, living better than anyone else. Reciprocity is the most important thing. It's fine to freeload, but at least give us some benefits. A set of cultivation techniques would be appropriate."
Since Lin Daoming found a way to become stronger, he had been full of motivation for the future. When he saw that the people around him couldn't catch up to him, the feeling of his status rising soared.
One-Eyed Man said, "Short-sighted."
Lin Daoming rolled his eyes. "Timid. I'm leaving."
He was going to squat on the toilet.
There was no other way.
Becoming stronger required effort. It just so happened that Lin Fan and the others were also there, so he might run into them.
Several days later!
August 13th!
The weather was clear. A beautiful day began just like this.
Ginseng's status in the special department was rising steadily. Liu Ying appeared before Ginseng on time, asking if Brother Sen needed a bath. If he wanted one, he would arrange everything perfectly.
Lin Daoming was also quite cunning. Like a stalker, he inconspicuously followed behind Lin Fan and the others, his gaze fixed on Ginseng's butt, afraid of missing anything.
Ginseng had strong perception abilities.
He always felt a penetrating gaze locked onto his butt.
It was too penetrating.
It made him feel endangered.
He thought to himself,
I'm not even human. Who is so thirsty that they won't even let me off?
In the starry sky.
A planet quietly rotated. To the naked eye, half of this planet was fiery red, and the other half was icy gray.
In the dark starry sky, it appeared very gloomy.
The Dragon God sat cross-legged on the hard rock, waiting. There was no oxygen here, and the solar wind relentlessly blew across the planet. But for a powerful being like the Dragon God, no matter how harsh the environment, it had no effect on him.
"True battles require patient waiting. However, your preparation is a bit lengthy."
He had been waiting for many days. He had agreed with Lin Fan to wait for him in the starry sky, so they could completely let loose and have a thorough battle.
But until now, he still hadn't waited for him.
He was indeed a little anxious.
The Dragon God looked up at the starry sky and slowly said, "Everyone, there's no need to pay attention here. I am waiting for a strong individual to have a sparring match with him."
The powerful beings who were paying attention to this place were shocked.
Who could this strong individual be, someone whom the Dragon God valued?
Moreover, they had all noticed this ordinary planet, the place where their Starry Sky Clan had arrived. How could a strong individual capable of rivaling the Dragon God appear here?
Their expressions gradually became serious.
They realized that things were not simple.
However, since the Dragon God had already spoken, they couldn't say anything and could only leave.
Immediately, the dark universe returned to calm, with no terrifying aura fluctuations.
The Dragon God closed his eyes, waiting quietly, gathering his aura, and preparing for battle. But what he didn't know was that the great battle he envisioned might not happen.
Mount Tai.
Deep abyss.
Chi stood before the crack in the light curtain. The seal was still very bright, but a terrifying power was stirring within the crack, pulsating like a heart, trying to break the seal.
"The impact of the unknown battle a while ago was unexpectedly terrifying."
Chi muttered to himself, knowing that the situation was a bit serious. Fortunately, the clash of power disappeared quickly, otherwise, the impact would have been significant.
The Evil Creature Overlord and the Two-Headed Evil Creature had been cultivating here.
They never thought that cultivation could be so enjoyable, vastly different from where they had been before. Their progress was rapid.
For the Overlord and the Two-Headed Creature, until now, they didn't know who was sealed behind it.
They really wanted to know.
But Chi had never told them.
However, for some unknown reason, they would sometimes hear voices in their minds, as if someone was calling them. When they tried to find the source of the sound, it would disappear without a trace.
Dorm room.
"Are you ready?" Old Zhang asked.
He held silver needles, looking at Lin Fan lying on the bed. Since realizing their shortcomings, both Old Zhang and Lin Fan had been studying.
Old Zhang found some acupuncture books and read them carefully, trying to internalize the content.
The results were good.
He had the ability to learn, and Old Zhang had a strong talent for acupuncture. After years of experimentation, his technical level had reached a very high standard.
Of course...
If a true acupuncturist saw Old Zhang's magical abilities, they would definitely exclaim, "Are you kidding me? How is that possible? You're using immortal needles!"
"Yes, I'm ready. Come on, help me cultivate," Lin Fan said.
It had been a long time since he had been needled by Old Zhang.
He missed it.
Back in the Qingshan Mental Hospital, how happy he was, spending every day being needled. The effects were great.
Ginseng was puzzled, not understanding what they were doing.
The Evil Chicken had long since become accustomed to it.
Just needling.
It squatted there obediently, waiting.
Suddenly.
The Evil Chicken noticed Ginseng habitually opening his pants, a magical thing slowly dropping from his crotch.
Holy crap!
What the heck?
Pooping right here?
The Evil Chicken couldn't stand this unhygienic fellow.
Oh dear.
He didn't expect the guy he brought out from the deep mountains to be a country bumpkin.
At this moment.
The Evil Chicken wanted to remind Ginseng that it wasn't hygienic to just relieve himself anywhere.
But he thought about it and didn't dare to say anything.
He had already been suppressed by Ginseng.
Look at those two foolish humans, sticking needles in each other. He didn't know what the use was, but the two of them were enjoying it, giving the impression that they were sick.
Ginseng noticed the hen's gaze and followed it to the thing he had just excreted because of a slight stomach discomfort.
Ginseng's face flushed.
He was a little embarrassed that his habit of pooping anywhere had been discovered by his little brother, but he didn't care. Would this little brother dare to tell anyone that his big brother pooped everywhere?
If he dared, he would definitely regret it.
"What are you looking at? Hurry up and get rid of this for your Brother Sen. I'm going to take a nap. If it's not cleaned up when I wake up, you're dead," Ginseng swaggered over to Old Zhang's bed and slept comfortably.
The Evil Chicken clenched its wings. Damn it...
Not only did he humiliate me, but he also threatened me.
The Evil Chicken secretly vowed that one day, when he could turn the tables, he would make Ginseng experience the same humiliation.
With a disgusted look, he approached the sticky stuff.
He didn't dare get too close.
Afraid of getting it on his chicken feet.
Seeing the tissue nearby, he flapped his wings, quickly pulled out a few sheets, and then slowly approached, ready to wipe it clean in one go. But suddenly, he smelled a strange fragrance.
Ordinary people couldn't smell it.
Because human sense of smell wasn't as good as a chicken's.
He was also an evil creature, so having some special talent was normal.
"Hmm... this smell, something's not right."
After pondering for a while.
A lightbulb went off in the Evil Chicken's head. He quickly ran to the bathroom, and a moment later, the sound of the toilet flushing could be heard.
"Mine is stinky, but his is fragrant. Is it really poop?"
When encountering strange situations, he would calmly analyze the true situation. Sometimes, only through careful study could one understand the truth of things; otherwise, everything was false.
He got closer.
The smell was indeed the same as what he had smelled earlier.
"A little fragrant, it seems like a tonic."
"Since ancient times, ginseng has been a great tonic. Although this guy is hateful, his identity as ginseng is true. Could it be..."
He shook his head.
Throwing this disgusting thought out of his mind.
I am the Evil Chicken...
A hero among evil creatures.
You want me to eat poop... and it's from someone who humiliated me. How can this be? This is unbearable! How can I be swayed by this? No matter how fragrant it is, I, the Evil Chicken, will not change my mind.
But unfortunately, the Evil Chicken had already become a "True Fragrance Chicken."
A being without dignity.
The words he had spoken earlier were forgotten in the blink of an eye.
No one knew the torment the Evil Chicken was enduring.
There were very few people who could resist temptation.
He belonged to the very rare kind.
"Wow! So fragrant."
The Evil Chicken finally abandoned his dignity, his weak mind controlled by curiosity. While no one was paying attention, he quickly swallowed it, like a chick pecking at rice. It seemed slow, but in reality, it was very fast.
Lying comfortably asleep on the bed, Ginseng smiled.
As if having a sweet dream.
"Lin Fan, how do you feel?" Old Zhang asked.
Lin Fan said, "I don't feel anything."
"But it's already the thirteenth needle," Old Zhang said, as if he couldn't believe it.
"Yeah," Lin Fan replied, as if he had thought of something, "Ah, I'm dizzy."
He pretended to faint very convincingly.
Old Zhang said disappointedly, "Don't comfort me. I know my skills can't keep up with you. You've improved, but I'm still standing still."
Saying that, he retracted the silver needles and carefully placed them back in the box.
These were his treasures.
Second only to Lin Fan's most precious things.
Lin Fan opened his eyes, "Don't be sad. You can take it slow. Some things need to be done gradually, not rushed. Think about the past, we used to improve together, right?"
Old Zhang liked Lin Fan comforting him like this.
Whenever he was in a bad mood, being comforted by Lin Fan would make him feel much better.
"Yes, I know. I will work hard in the future," Old Zhang said confidently. He was prepared to work hard and continue studying acupuncture, striving to keep up with Lin Fan.
"Are you hungry?" Lin Fan asked.
"A little."
"I'll take you out to eat."
"Okay, but we don't have any money."
"It's fine. I'll ask my wife for some. She's very good to me. She definitely won't say anything about me asking for some money to treat you to a meal."
At this time.
The Evil Chicken's feathers were shining with a dazzling luster.
Have you ever seen a chicken cultivate?
It was the kind where its chicken feet were crossed, its wings tucked in, aimed at its dantian. Whether chickens had dantians or not was unknown, but the posture was indeed very professional. The Evil Chicken's cultivation was very weak, only a few levels.
So weak that it couldn't keep up with the pace, only able to act as a mascot beside Lin Fan.
But now, because of Ginseng's poop, its realm was rapidly increasing.
Level five!
Level six!
Level seven!
He had never seen such a situation, it was even more intense than taking drugs.
Suddenly.
Ginseng jumped onto the Evil Chicken, pulling on the rope, "Don't just stand there, we're going out, wake up quickly."
The Evil Chicken almost suffocated from being pulled by Ginseng, its breathing becoming labored.
The most crucial thing was that it had just been cultivating.
Bastard.
Do you have no manners? Didn't you see I was cultivating?
The Evil Chicken really wanted to crush Ginseng under its chicken feet.
To let him know that I, the Evil Hero, am not someone you can mess with, you bastard. If I didn't have a grand goal to accomplish, you really think you could ride on my head?
But...
There was nothing he could do. He could only endure it.
Hotel.
Mu Qing had been in Yanhai City for a while. This period was the most relaxing time for her. Looking at the golden leaf in her hand, she thought of Lin Fan's appearance and personality, and couldn't help but smile.
"What a strange person."
He was indeed a strange fellow.
The organization had instructed her to get close to Lin Fan, but she hadn't obeyed their orders and hadn't completed the mission they had given her. This had already caused dissatisfaction within the organization.
Ding ding!
A message arrived on her phone.
Checking the message.
Mu Qing, I can only help you this much. The organization has tolerated you for long enough and has lost patience. Be careful.
Mu Qing's expression turned serious.
She didn't expect Yao Ji would actually message her, warning her that the organization's patience had reached its limit.
As far as she knew, Yao Ji had always looked down on her.
Yet unexpectedly, she sent a message.
This place wasn't suitable to stay for long.
She couldn't stay.
Lin Fan and the others arrived at the hotel, knocking on the door, dong dong dong, but no one opened.
"Could she not be here?" Old Zhang asked.
Lin Fan said: "Probably not."
A cleaner passed by, "The guest in this room has already checked out."
As a cleaner, she rarely saw anyone rent a room here for so long, and they were so secretive, just like a celebrity had come.
"Where could she have gone?"
Lin Fan thought, his nose twitching. For others, smelling a scent to know where someone was, was obviously impossible.
But anything happening to Lin Fan was possible.
"I smell my wife's scent," Lin Fan said.
Old Zhang said: "Where?"
Lin Fan said: "Not too far, I'll take you there."
The cleaner, who hadn't walked too far, looked at Lin Fan suspiciously.
She felt that people nowadays really exaggerated their bragging, to the point of saying they could find someone by smell. If they really had such an ability, wouldn't they have made a fortune finding husbands for people?
Outskirts.
The Shadow Society had a killer squad.
Used to assassinate enemies, and also to eliminate traitors within the organization.
Mu Qing had already been defined as a traitor by the Shadow Society.
You could make Lin Fan have a good impression of you, but you still couldn't complete the mission. What was that if not betrayal?
At the same time,
The Shadow Society was preparing to abandon the Lin Fan lead. Since there were no gains, they would pursue the Starry Sky Clan lead. Moreover, there were gains with the Starry Sky Clan, at least forming a positive ratio.
Therefore, they prepared to abandon the Lin Fan lead.
Simultaneously purging traitors.
People who were useless to the organization, and even possibly betraying the organization, didn't need to exist.
"Mu Qing, you've disappointed me greatly."
A man wearing a wolf mask said in a deep voice.
This was one of the higher-ups of the Shadow Society, belonging to the peak combat power. His muscles were bulging, and one could tell at a glance that he had either graduated from the Buddhist High Academy or some other physical cultivation academy.
"Is it really that difficult to make a contribution to the organization? You continuously disappoint the organization, how can you face the organization's cultivation of you?"
When he spoke excitedly, this higher-up spat to express his disdain. But embarrassingly, the mask had no mouth, and the spit landed inside his mask, smearing all over his face.
Awkward!
Mu Qing said: "I don't want to deceive him."
"Hehe, you don't want to deceive him? Does that mean you've fallen in love with him?" The wolf-masked higher-up said angrily.
Mu Qing said: "No, he is a very special person, very kind-hearted. I don't want to use someone's kindness towards me to do things against my will, let alone tarnish this kindness towards me."
"Ridiculous, what nonsense are you talking about, I don't understand." The wolf-masked higher-up picked his ear, dug out a fingernail-sized piece of earwax, and flicked it towards Mu Qing. The earwax flew quickly, with the power of a bomb. Mu Qing dodged it, and the ground behind her exploded suddenly, blasting a small, deep pit.
"Take care of her, I don't want to see this traitor."
The surrounding killers exchanged glances and instantly attacked Mu Qing.
Mu Qing's expression was grave, not daring to be careless. Her strength was originally quite good, dealing with these killers wasn't a problem, but there were too many of them. After fighting for a while, she gradually became strained.
The wolf-masked higher-up stood there coldly,
Enjoying the cool breeze in the wilderness.
Seeing that Mu Qing hadn't been killed for a long time, he sucked a pebble into his hand with his palm and flicked it out in a sneak attack.
The pebble hit Mu Qing's arm. A sharp pain surged through her, and her movements slowed. Puchi, a blade cut her arm, blood staining her sleeve.
The surrounding killers seized the opportunity, raising their weapons, preparing to finish off Mu Qing.
Suddenly,
A figure appeared, repelling the surrounding killers.
"He Mu, do you also want to betray the organization?"
The wolf-masked higher-up saw the newcomer and angrily rebuked him. He didn't expect that while dealing with one traitor, another one would appear.
The handsome He Mu hadn't been seen since he went to Yanhai City to rescue members and was intercepted by the one-eyed man, taking the opportunity to escape. Unexpectedly, he had been hiding around Yanhai City.
"Sir, she cannot be killed," He Mu said.
The wolf-masked higher-up laughed, "You say she can't be killed, so she can't be killed? Who do you think you are?"
He Mu said: "Lin Fan cannot be provoked, otherwise, you will bring destruction upon the Shadow Society."
During this time, he had been paying attention to Lin Fan. With constant observation, he discovered that Lin Fan was truly terrifying, his strength basically unresolvable, no one was his match.
At the same time, he heard that outside, Lin Fan always called Mu Qing his wife. With this relationship, if Lin Fan knew that Mu Qing was killed by the Shadow Society, he didn't dare to imagine the consequences.
He just didn't expect that the people in the Shadow Society were so stupid. Seeing that Mu Qing hadn't completed the mission, they prepared to kill her. Which idiot gave this order?
Betrayal was indeed betrayal.
But they also had to look at the existence behind the person.
If he were the leader of the Shadow Society, he would definitely use Mu Qing's relationship to establish a good relationship with Lin Fan. Even if there were no benefits in the early stages, patience was a virtue. There would be gains one day.
Could it be that the Shadow Society hadn't discovered this problem?
The wolf-masked higher-up was silent. Just when He Mu thought he had persuaded him, a gloomy voice sounded beside his ear.
"Are you teaching me how to do things?"
He Mu's pupils suddenly constricted. He didn't expect the other party to appear behind him. Danger pressed on his nerves. He made an extreme move, his body spinning like a top, fiercely kicking towards the other party's neck.
Crack!
The wolf-masked higher-up grabbed He Mu's ankle and slammed him towards the ground.
He Mu dissipated the force mid-air, instantly tumbling several times.
"So strong."
He Mu knew that if nothing unexpected happened, with his strength, he was no match for this wolf-masked higher-up. He had been in the Shadow Society until now and didn't know the true identities of these masked guys, but he could guess that these people were all first-class experts, and some were definitely involved in special departments.
They were definitely not unknown.
"With your kind of strength, you dare to meddle?"
The wolf-masked higher-up twisted his neck.
"I'll just play with you."
He Mu didn't dare to be careless. He flicked his arm, and several golden talismans rose into the air.
"Seven Star Formation!"
He possessed both Maoshan and Buddhist power, his strength was powerful, and his talent was extremely high. Although he wasn't a Heavenly King level expert, he could exchange a few moves with a Heavenly King. As for prolonged combat, the danger level would definitely rise to a terrifying degree.
Instantly, the talismans shone, forming a great formation, trapping the wolf-masked higher-up within.
"Five Thunders Technique!"
He Mu formed hand seals, using Maoshan magic, summoning heavenly thunder to strike down fiercely on the wolf-masked higher-up.
The wolf-masked higher-up was very disdainful.
"Buddha's Fury!"
In an instant, a golden Buddha hand appeared behind him, directly tearing apart the Seven Star Formation. The summoned thunder instantly shattered, unable to harm him in the slightest.
"You overestimate yourself. Relying on Maoshan and Buddhist power, you want to contend with me? You're not qualified."
He Mu looked at the other party with a grave expression.
This would definitely be a fierce battle.
Suddenly,
A voice came from afar.
"Wife..."
Listening carefully, one could tell it was Lin Fan's voice.
Lin Fan brought Old Zhang and the others from afar, following the scent. He could find his wife; it was the scent he remembered from living together day and night.
"Your trouble has arrived."
He Mu smiled and, while the wolf-masked higher-up wasn't paying attention, quickly escaped. He knew that the following matters didn't require his presence at all. With such a terrifying existence, who would dare to be presumptuous?
"Why would he come?"
The wolf-masked higher-up pondered. He wanted to leave, but just leaving like this seemed inappropriate. After careful consideration, since Mu Qing was so incompetent, he would personally communicate with the other party.
Wife?
If he let him know that his so-called wife was a member of the Shadow Society, and even arranged by them, he would probably feel deceived.
The feeling of being deceived was very unpleasant.
"Why are you here?" Mu Qing asked.
Lin Fan smiled: "I took my friends to the hotel to look for you, and they said you weren't there, so I followed your scent to find you. See how amazing I am? I followed the scent and found you, which means I'll always remember your scent."
Mu Qing was amused by Lin Fan, "Is your nose as sensitive as a puppy's?"
"Mmm... much better than a puppy's," Lin Fan said.
But soon, he noticed Mu Qing's blood-stained sleeve, his expression changing drastically, panicking: "Wife, what happened to your arm? Who hurt you? I'll avenge you."
He gently caressed Mu Qing's arm, his face full of distress.
Looking at Lin Fan's pained expression, Mu Qing didn't know why, but she felt somewhat moved. Perhaps this was the feeling of being genuinely cared for and protected.
"Was it you?"
Lin Fan glared at the wolf-masked man and the others, anger burning in his eyes. He, who was never angry, felt very upset seeing his wife injured.
"Lin Fan, I know you, you're quite famous." The wolf-masked higher-up still hadn't noticed the seriousness of the situation, still acting as he pleased. "You say she's your wife, but do you know her true identity?"
Hearing this, Mu Qing's face paled slightly. After all, as the other party said, she was deceiving Lin Fan's feelings.
She lowered her head, not daring to look directly ahead.
"I'm sorry, I..."
But before Mu Qing could finish, Lin Fan embraced her, saying guiltily:
"Wife, I'm sorry, I didn't know you had a job. I thought you had a lot of free time, so I always wanted to look for you. It must have been very difficult for you."
"Why don't you quit your job? I'll support you."
"My salary is decent now. As long as Old Zhang and I are frugal, we can buy you nice things."
Old Zhang whispered: "We're very poor, we haven't even received a salary. Why don't we let her work and support us?"
"Old Zhang, how can you have such thoughts?" Lin Fan said.
Old Zhang said: "I was just saying."
The Evil Rooster was already dumbfounded. Was there a mistake? Did I not hear correctly? But they didn't say it clearly enough. Your wife is someone placed by the local organization by your side, but you're not angry, but distressed instead. Have you considered my feelings as an Evil Hero?
Let's not even mention the Evil Rooster's astonishment.
Even Mu Qing looked at Lin Fan in shock.
"I agreed to let you get close to me. At first, I really wanted to complete the organization's mission." Mu Qing didn't want to deceive Lin Fan. She couldn't bear to deceive such a person, truly rare, there were few like him in the world.
Lin Fan said: "Being serious about work is very important, I understand."
He touched Mu Qing's face, smiling.
"I truly understand."
Then,
He looked at the wolf-masked man.
"Why did you hurt my wife?"
The wolf-masked man's face, hidden under the mask, looked somewhat ferocious. "Do you even understand what I'm saying? She approached you with a purpose."
"Don't joke around, I was the one who approached her with a purpose, otherwise, she wouldn't have become my wife," Lin Fan said.
The wolf-masked man roared: "She's not your wife."
"She is my wife."
"She's not."
"She is."
The wolf-masked man panted, somewhat at a loss for words. He felt that the other party was simply sick. If he wasn't sick, how could he be like this?
Any normal person couldn't tolerate being deceived.
He had already told him the truth.
Yet he was saying these things.
"Let's go."
The wolf-masked man knew that staying any longer was just a waste of breath. He wasn't the other party's opponent, resistance was impossible, but if he ran, who could stop him?
"Stop! You hurt my wife, and you just want to leave like this?" Lin Fan angrily rebuked.
He would never forget that when his wife passed away, someone came to cause trouble, letting dust fall on his clean-loving wife. He felt deeply guilty, and now, something even more excessive had happened. He couldn't forgive it.
"Disappear."
Lin Fan stared ahead, his expression very serious, especially the light blooming in his eyes, which he had never possessed before.
As soon as his voice fell,
He punched forward.
Instantly,
An extremely powerful fist force erupted, its might surpassing imagination, tearing the sky apart. When the force dissipated, a huge, fist-shaped crater appeared in front.
It was completely a power beyond human capability.
A gust of wind blew.
A wolf mask lay quietly in the ruins.
"Old Zhang, what should we do about my wife's wound?" Lin Fan asked.
Old Zhang pondered, "How about a couple of acupuncture needles?"
"Master, I'll do it." Ginseng jumped onto Lin Fan's shoulder, then extended its roots, squeezing out a drop of golden liquid. The liquid landed on the wound, and at a speed visible to the naked eye, the wound healed.
There wasn't even a scar.
Mu Qing was astonished, she even felt her strength increase, the feeling of increasing strength was irresistible.
"Ginseng, you're amazing," Lin Fan said.
Ginseng said confidently: "It's alright."
The Evil Rooster squinted at Ginseng, having only one thought: What a flatterer, always showing off.
"Wife, let's go back. If you're going out in the future, you can come to me," Lin Fan said.
Mu Qing stood still, saying seriously: "What he said is true. I am indeed a member of the Shadow Society. The Shadow Society is the organization your special department is investigating. I'm no longer suitable to go back, and I'm really not your wife. I don't have any impression of what you said. You must have mistaken me for someone else."
Lin Fan walked over to Mu Qing with a smile, gently stroking her hair. He lifted a strand, bringing it to his nose and inhaling.
"No, I haven't mistaken you. Your scent, your appearance, your body, your habits, your voice… I'm very familiar with them all. You are my wife. Although I don't know what happened, I know it's you."
"I believe I wouldn't make a mistake."
Mu Qing looked at Lin Fan. "How do you know about my body?"
"I peeked," Lin Fan said matter-of-factly, uttering the most inappropriate words with a straight face.
Mu Qing blushed, a mixture of embarrassment and anger rising within her as she clenched her fists. Was it that time when he appeared outside the window while she was showering?
Or was it that night?
Did he peek while she was dozing off?
"Right, wife, Old Zhang is a bit hungry. I want to take him to get something to eat. Can you take us somewhere?" Lin Fan asked.
Mu Qing stared blankly at Lin Fan.
The current situation was rather serious.
Yet, what Lin Fan said made her laugh involuntarily. What kind of situation would ever make him take things seriously?
Finally…
"Okay."
Mu Qing felt a sense of relief wash over her.
The disappearance of pressure made her feel lighter than she had ever felt before.
As for Lin Fan constantly calling her his wife…
She had a feeling she couldn't escape his grasp. Perhaps… she really would be swept off her feet by him.
In the distance.
He Mu watched the scene unfold, cold sweat dripping down his back.
It was truly terrifying.
"Such terrifying power. Thankfully, I didn't run in that direction, otherwise I definitely would have been caught in the crossfire."
After escaping, He Mu hid far away, secretly observing the situation.
The power generated by that ordinary punch was something he couldn't even imagine in his wildest dreams.
Who could withstand such an attack?
It was impossible for a human.
The Shadow Society received the news immediately.
None of the people sent to eliminate the traitor returned.
They also lost a high-ranking member.
Members of the Shadow Society went to the scene to investigate. Apart from finding the wolf mask, they didn't even find a single bone. However, the chasm that tore through the sky terrified them to their core.
Was it a god descending?
Otherwise, who could create such a scene?
When Bei Tao learned about this incident, he knew without a doubt that it was Lin Fan's doing. Mu Qing must have revealed the truth, and Lin Fan, unfazed, had annihilated them all.
"Strange, as far as I know, Lin Fan rarely kills."
He couldn't quite understand it.
Indeed, it was true.
When he was among the interstellar races, many people had conflicts with Lin Fan. But no matter how much they provoked him, the worst that happened was a severe beating.
Some spitting blood, some enduring injuries.
But they were still alive and kicking.
This current situation… was surprising and unbelievable.
He really wanted to know what that guy had said to Lin Fan to provoke him to such an extent. Something didn't seem right.
Inside the office.
Jin He Li pushed a document in front of the one-eyed man. "Take a look."
"What document?" the one-eyed man asked.
Jin He Li replied, "It was sent anonymously."
The one-eyed man was curious. Sending an anonymous document to the special department? If it was useful, why remain anonymous? Why not claim the reward?
He flipped through the pages.
His relaxed expression gradually turned serious. After reading it to the end, the one-eyed man placed the document in the drawer.
"Mm, I've seen it. Go back to work."
Jin He Li said, "Aren't you going to ask about it?"
The one-eyed man replied, "No need to ask, no need to worry about it. Don't tell anyone. This matter is only between you and me. Think carefully about the implications, and you'll understand."
Jin He Li walked out of the office, her brow furrowed, recalling the leader's words.
Think carefully about the implications…
A moment later.
She understood, shaking her head with a smile, treating it as if nothing had happened.
The one-eyed man swivelled in his chair, looking out the window at the bustling city.
"Which idiot sent this? Don't they know who Lin Fan is?"
"Messing with his woman is just asking for death."
Suddenly, the one-eyed man felt that the Shadow Society wasn't so scary after all. With this level of intelligence, did they really think they could gain an advantage by exposing Lin Fan's identity without understanding his personality and preferences?
Didn't they know he came from Qing Shan Mental Hospital?
If he goes crazy, he'll kill them all.
The one-eyed man really wanted to know where the Shadow Society was located and who its members were, but he knew he could investigate any lead except those related to the people around Lin Fan.
Once someone was considered one of Lin Fan's own…
Lin Fan would shower them with boundless warmth and tolerance.
He learned this from Hao Ren.
The one-eyed man smiled, opened the drawer, and took out a book.
How to Become the Beloved of a Psychiatric Patient
That's right.
The one-eyed man had a distant goal.
He didn't want to be Lin Fan's friend, but his beloved. Only then would he be worthy of his title as the leader of the Yanhai City department.
August 15th!
The weather was fine.
Venus.
The Dragon God abruptly opened his eyes, two golden beams piercing through the cosmos, stirring the cosmic energy.
He took a deep breath.
"Truly outrageous. Have you forgotten our battle?"
The Dragon God sat on Venus, waiting for Lin Fan's arrival.
But there wasn't even a sliver of news.
It made him furious.
A duel between strong individuals, regardless of who they were, should be taken seriously by both sides. Yet, he felt like a fool, waiting here without a single message.
The Dragon God traversed the starry sky, flying towards the planet.
He wanted to confront Lin Fan face-to-face.
What exactly did he mean?
Breakfast shop.
Lin Fan and the others were enjoying their delicious porridge.
"Boss, please give me three baskets of steamed dumplings," Lin Fan called out.
"Alright, coming right up."
At this moment.
A figure stood before Lin Fan's table.
"Are the steamed dumplings delicious?"
"Want to eat a real dragon?"
"I'll give you one."
The tone was somewhat angry, as if very upset.
Lin Fan, eating his dumplings, looked up and said:
"Steamed buns okay?"
