Lin Fan took the cup and took a sip. The aroma of the tea entered his heart, making him feel refreshed and energized.
His injuries were not serious. It did not matter if he took the medicine or not. However, since she was so kind and had such a good healing pill, why should he reject her?
Lin Fan was at the Mahayana stage of the Indestructible Golden Body. However, Changxiu Yue did not know that he was already lucky to be alive after being chased by a Purple Mansion Exalted Immortal. At this moment, she looked at Lin Fan with concern and asked, "Lin Fan, how do you feel now?"
Lin Fan felt that the Heavenly Spirit Pill had already dissolved in his body, forming a warm current that spread throughout his body. The pain in his body was slowly alleviating. He nodded and said, "Much better. Thank you."
Chang Xiu Yue's heart relaxed, revealing a smile, her intentions extremely gentle.
…
On the other hand, the King of Kun Shan was searching for Lin Fan anxiously in the skies above Anyang City. When he caught sight of a Purple Palace Exalted Immortal approaching, he could not help but furrow his brows. Instantly, he guessed that this was one of the four guardians of Eternal Wind. After all, within Anyang City, only Eternal Wind and his guardians were of the Purple Palace Exalted Immortal state.
Everlasting Wind was the lord of a region. He was rarely seen. He would not even show up in such an important event like the region city's elimination competition, let alone during normal times. Therefore, the King of Kun Shan thought that this person was most likely his Guardian.
However, when he scanned with his Divine Sense, he realized that it was not a Guardian but Everlasting Wind himself. The King of Kun Shan could not help but feel surprised and a little nervous. He cupped his fists at Everlasting Wind and said, "Greetings, my lord."
Everlasting Wind snorted and said, "King of Kun Shan, why did you come to Anyang City instead of staying in the Kun Shan Tribe?"
"My lord, you came at the right time. I have a favor to ask of you."
"You're so capable and you still have a favor to ask of me?" Everlasting Wind sneered.
He looked very displeased.
"My lord, why are you doing this?
It's fine if you don't want to help. At most, I'll look for him myself … "Seeing that Everlasting Wind was displeased and did not give him face, the King of Kun Shan restrained his cultivation.
Taking advantage of his good relationship with the City Lord of World Capital Jade City, he didn't place Everlasting Wind in his eyes.
"Do you want me to help you find Lin Fan?" Everlasting Wind sneered.
"That's right. How did you know?" The King of Kun Shan was a little surprised.
He didn't know that Lin Fan and Everlasting Wind had become friends.
"To be honest, Lin Fan is currently in my residence."
"Oh?
Don't tell me that if you capture him for me, I'll have to thank the Territorial Lord? "The King of Kun Shan looked delighted.
He felt that his influence and strength were both greater than Lin Fan's, so it was reasonable for Eternal Sky Wind to help him and not Lin Fan.
"Hmph! You think too highly of yourself. You sure know how to think of such a good thing." Eternal Sky Wind laughed coldly. "To be honest, Lin Fan is now my esteemed guest …"
"What?
Honored guest?
… "The King of Kun Shan was stunned by Everlasting Wind's words.
He thought that Everlasting Wind had already helped him capture Lin Fan, but he didn't expect that Lin Fan had become Everlasting Wind's guest. This change was too big, and he couldn't accept it.
"That's right. Lin Fan is my man. No one is allowed to touch him. I'll fight anyone who touches him …" Everlasting Wind's expression was dark as he said coldly and firmly.
"Everlasting Wind.
What do you mean by this? "The King of Kun Shan was enraged when he heard this, and he called Everlasting Wind's name directly.
He questioned, "You're not deliberately making things difficult for me, are you …"
"Hmph, do you think I came out just to make things difficult for you …?" Everlasting Wind sneered and asked in return.
"Everlasting Wind, that Lin Fan has a deep grudge against me.
My precious son, Kun Jiuhu, was killed by him. I must make him pay with his blood. "
"Your son, Kun Jiuhu, is a criminal, and Lin Fan is a participant. According to the rules of the competition, Lin Fan has the right to kill him, and he doesn't have to bear any responsibility … You're just creating trouble for no reason by seeking revenge on him …" Everlasting Wind said calmly.
"Don't try to reason with me. I don't like to hear that. He killed my precious son, so I'll kill him. It's only right that he pays with his life. Everlasting Wind, I respect you as the master of a region. Don't make things difficult for me for a nobody …"
"You're wrong. Lin Fan isn't a nobody. He's the deacon of Storm House in Anyang Region. Black Whirlwind won't allow you to kill him …"
"That dead face, pooh! I don't care about him at all."
The King of Kun Mountain flung his sleeves coldly. His rationality had been burned by the fire of hatred. He would do anything to avenge his precious son.
Everlasting Wind's current cultivation base was at the Ice Realm of the Violet Mansion Supreme Immortal. His Qi Refinement cultivation base was superior to the King of Kun Mountain's. However, he hadn't comprehended any True Intent until now. The two Violet Mansions in his Dantian's Sea of Qi were empty.
Although the King of Kun Mountain was only at the Ice Realm of the Violet Mansion Supreme Immortal, his Violet Mansion contained wind. His True Intent of Wind was extremely powerful. If they really fought, Everlasting Wind wasn't confident of defeating him.
Even if he could suppress the King of Kun Mountain, he could only protect Lin Fan for a while. He couldn't protect him forever. Moreover, Lin Fan was about to participate in the elimination competition in the World Capital. The World Capital was adjacent to the Tribe of Kun Mountain. It was within the King of Kun Mountain's sphere of influence. It could be said that it was the King of Kun Mountain's territory. It would be too easy for the King of Kun Mountain to kill Lin Fan. Therefore, he had to think of a foolproof plan, a long-term plan.
After pondering for a while, he said, "That won't do. Lin Fan is my future great-grandson-in-law. He's considered a member of the Chang Clan. If you touch him, you'll be touching my family …"
The King of Kun Mountain's eyes flashed. He sneered and said playfully, "Everlasting Wind, what nonsense are you spouting?
You're the Lord of a Domain. Aren't you lowering your prestige by saying such things? "
"King of Kun Mountain, I'm speaking the truth. Believe it or not, Lin Fan is a member of the Chang Clan. If you touch him, you'll be going against me …"
As Everlasting Wind spoke, he shook his hands. Instantly, his body rumbled. A rumbling sound could be heard as if an iceberg was collapsing.
That was the sound of Immortal Ice. For the Immortal Ice in his body to be this powerful, his cultivation base had probably reached the peak of the Ice Realm of the Violet Mansion Supreme Immortal.
The King of Kun Mountain was secretly shocked. The difference in strength between Violet Mansion Supreme Immortals was huge. Sometimes, Violet Mansion Supreme Immortals could kill each other instantly.
There was no other reason. Take the King of Kun Mountain and Everlasting Wind as an example. Everlasting Wind had become a Violet Mansion Supreme Immortal a hundred years ago and was about to break through the Ice Realm of the Violet Mansion Supreme Immortal. On the other hand, the King of Kun Mountain was only in the Ice Realm of the Violet Mansion Supreme Immortal. Moreover, he had just broken through less than a year ago.
The gap in their foundation was huge. The only thing he could rely on now was the True Meaning of Wind. However, Lin Fan's attack just now had depleted his True Meaning of Wind. He still needed a few days of comprehension before he could gather it again. He did not have the strength to fight Everlasting Wind now. Therefore, he could only compromise.
"Alright. You said that Lin Fan is your great-grandson-in-law. Which granddaughter are you going to betroth to Lin Fan?"
"Long-sleeved Moon," Everlasting Wind blurted out.
"Long-sleeved Moon?
… "When the King of Kun Mountain heard this name, he felt an itch in his heart. At the same time, he gritted his teeth.
When he had comprehended the True Meaning of Wind, his confidence had swelled. He had asked someone to come to the Chang Clan to propose marriage to Long-sleeved Moon. Not only was Long-sleeved Moon beautiful, but it was also rumored that she had the Extreme Yin Body.
However, he was rejected. Although he knew that many Territorial Lords had suffered because of this and did not have much hope, the feeling of being rejected was very unpleasant. He was secretly annoyed for a long time. Later on, he gradually forgot about this matter.
Now that he heard the name Long-sleeved Moon again, the King of Kun Mountain's memory came back. His anger rose as he sneered, "Long-sleeved Moon … Everlasting Wind, don't talk nonsense. You didn't even agree when those Territorial Lords came to propose marriage. How can you be willing to marry your precious great-granddaughter to Lin Fan, who is such a wimp …"
"Wimp?
King of Kun Mountain, are you scolding me?
I've already said that Lin Fan is already a member of the Chang Clan. Scolding him is the same as scolding me … "
"Alright, alright …" The King of Kun Mountain's jealousy and anger rose together. He gritted his teeth and said, "Everlasting Wind, I'm not that easy to fool. You said that Lin Fan is about to become your great-grandson-in-law. Alright, let Lin Fan and Long-sleeved Moon come out. Let them hold hands … No … No … Let them hug. If they can do this, it will prove that what you said is true. From then on, I won't pursue this matter anymore …"
"Are you serious?" Everlasting Wind stared at the King of Kun Mountain and asked with a serious expression.
"Yes. However, not in the sky, but over there …" The King of Kun Mountain pointed at the square of Anyang City below and revealed a playful smile.
He thought that if the marriage between Lin Fan and the Chang Clan was fake, then with Everlasting Wind's status, he would definitely not allow his great-granddaughter Long-sleeved Moon and Lin Fan to hug in public.
Otherwise, Long-sleeved Moon's status would plummet and the Chang Clan would be disgraced.
Letting Lin Fan and Long-sleeved Moon hug in public in the square of Anyang City … This … This …
Everlasting Wind looked troubled. Although he wanted to betroth his great-granddaughter to Lin Fan, he had not made it clear yet. Therefore, he was not clear about Lin Fan's thoughts. Now that Lin Fan suddenly made such a request, he thought that not only would Long-sleeved Moon feel embarrassed, but Lin Fan might also not agree.
Seeing Everlasting Wind's troubled expression, the King of Kun Mountain laughed proudly, "Haha, what's wrong?
Is it very difficult? Since Lin Fan will soon become your great-grandson-in-law, I'm sure he and Long-sleeved Moon have already fallen in love and are inseparable. Then, a hug is nothing … Don't tell me that they just met … "
"Bullsh * t." Everlasting Wind, who had always been elegant, finally swore. "What's so difficult about that? As long as you promise not to touch Lin Fan …"
"Don't worry. I, the King of Kun Mountain, am also a person of status. I won't go back on my words." The King of Kun Mountain crossed his arms and looked at Everlasting Wind playfully. "Then, I'll wait at the square and watch the show. Haha …"
As he spoke, the King of Kun Mountain flew down.
He flew towards the square of Anyang City.
Everlasting Wind waved his sleeve and flew back to his residence.
He arrived at the main hall.
Seeing that Everlasting Wind had returned, Long-sleeved Moon and Lin Fan stood up. Long-sleeved Moon asked, "Great-grandfather, you've been gone for so long. Did you chase the King of Kun Mountain away?"
A bitter smile appeared on Everlasting Wind's face. He glanced at Lin Fan and finally looked at Long-sleeved Moon. He shook his head sadly and said, "In this world, strength is everything.
The King of Kun Mountain is now an Ice Realm Purple Mansion Supreme Immortal. He has also comprehended the true meaning of wind. Although there's only one Purple Mansion in his Dantian's Sea of Qi, there's wind in his Purple Mansion. It's even stronger than Great-grandfather's two Purple Mansions … "
Long-sleeved Moon and Lin Fan were stunned when they heard that.
Lin Fan immediately understood. He said, "Don't worry, Territorial Lord. I won't make things difficult for you. I'll go out and settle this with the King of Kun Mountain …"
Lin Fan said as he turned around resolutely, intending to walk out. However, unexpectedly …
Long-sleeved Moon reached out her slender hand and grabbed his arm.
She said nervously, "Ah, don't …"
"Lin Fan, I've already reached an agreement with the King of Kun Mountain …" Everlasting Wind said anxiously.
"Reached an agreement?
What agreement? "Lin Fan and Long-sleeved Moon were stunned.
They stared at Everlasting Wind and asked.
Everlasting Wind told them about the King of Kun Mountain's conditions. At the end, his face turned red. It was obvious that he was very embarrassed.
After hearing the conditions, Long-sleeved Moon's pretty face turned hot and red like the clouds.
She had only held hands with Lin Fan since she was young. Other than that, she had never had any physical contact with the opposite sex.
To be honest, it was fine to hold hands, or even cuddle indoors. But to cuddle in public, it was really embarrassing …
Lin Fan was also a little embarrassed. He was embarrassed not because he hugged Long-sleeved Moon, but because he did not know about this marriage at all. Before this, he only vaguely felt that the Chang family valued him so much. Obviously, they had this intention. However, he did not expect Everlasting Wind to really have the intention to betroth Long-sleeved Moon to him.
"This … can't … It's too difficult for Miss Long-sleeved Moon," Lin Fan said decisively. "I'll go out and settle this with the King of Kun Mountain now. Don't worry. No matter how powerful the King of Kun Mountain is, he can't kill me."
Long-sleeved Moon did not expect Lin Fan to be so responsible. She pulled Lin Fan and said, "Don't say anymore. I can't let you take the risk. As long as the King of Kun Mountain can let you go, I'll do whatever he wants …"
"That's right, Lin Fan! I've already promised the King of Kunshan! If I were to go back on my words, I'd definitely be the laughing stock of him! If that b * stard were to spread this out to the public, wouldn't that mean that I'm not trustworthy …?" Chang Tianfeng replied.
"Okay, but it's too unfair for Miss Long-sleeved Moon …" Lin Fan said, "But please don't worry, Miss Long-sleeved Moon. I'll be responsible for you …"
Long-sleeved Moon smiled sweetly. She held Lin Fan's arm and said, "Let's go!
Let's go to the square … "
Everlasting Wind stared at the backs of the two as they walked out. Looking at the two of them who looked like a perfect match, he felt gratified. To be honest, it was really hard to find a man like Lin Fan who had such a high cultivation and great potential. He did not want such a man to die in the hands of the King of Kun Mountain. Therefore, he would rather sacrifice the reputation of the Chang family to protect him.
At this moment, the square of Anyang City was crowded. Usually, there would not be so many people in the square. In order to embarrass Everlasting Wind, the King of Kun Mountain scattered some gold silk on the ground to attract people.
Who would not be willing to pick up money? It immediately attracted a large number of people to fight for it. There was almost a stampede.
The people had just picked up the gold silk and were leaving happily. Suddenly, they saw Lin Fan and Long-sleeved Moon flying over while holding hands. They immediately stopped in their tracks. There were not many people who knew Lin Fan, but almost everyone in Anyang City knew Long-sleeved Moon.
Long-sleeved Moon was the number one beauty in Anyang City. Her beauty was the best in Anyang City and even in the entire Anyang Region. Of course, she was not only attractive for her beauty, but also for the rumor that she had a Taiyin Body.
A woman with a Taiyin Body could show it in her every movement and smile. However, to truly confirm a Taiyin Body, a man had to personally verify it. Therefore, Long-sleeved Moon, who was still a virgin, could not be verified. Even she herself did not know whether she had a Taiyin Body or not.
People could only make wild guesses from her speech and behavior. Because of this, she was even more mysterious and eye-catching.
"Wow, a beauty. Not only did we hit the jackpot today, but we also have such good eyesight …"
"Eh?
Isn't that Long-sleeved Moon? "
"It's Long-sleeved Moon. Eh?
No, it's not her … "
"Why is it not her? It's her. Who else in Anyang City is so beautiful?"
"Why is Long-sleeved Moon holding hands with a man …?"
"Yeah, I've never heard that she was betrothed to anyone. Moreover, this is not her style … It's too high-profile …"
"Who's this man? He's only at the Three Liquid Stage of Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal. How could Long-sleeved Moon like him …"
"I, I know this man. He's the champion of this year's knockout competition in the Domain City … His name is Lin Fan … I heard that he's very powerful. His results have broken all the previous records …"
"It looks like Long-sleeved Moon is going to marry him … Tsk, tsk, Lin Fan is very lucky …"
In the midst of all the discussions, the King of Kunshan's face gradually turned gloomy. He was dumbfounded when he saw Lin Fan and Changxiu Yue walking out hand in hand. The two of them looked so intimate. Looking at the beauty he had been thinking about day and night being inseparable with Lin Fan, the fire of jealousy in his heart suddenly swelled.
While the King of Kun Shan was burning with jealousy, Changxiu Yue also noticed the King of Kun Shan. However, she didn't even look at the King of Kun Shan. Instead, she wrapped her arms around Lin Fan and pressed her beautiful face against his shoulder …
What a public display of affection!
