Chapter 180

The female warriors were very envious when they saw this. To forever maintain a youthful and beautiful face—what a tempting thing it was for a woman.

It was a pity that they were unlucky and couldn't obtain the reward.

On this side, Lin Fan also began to claim today's diary rewards and found that his luck was quite good today; there were actually three rewards.

The first reward was for the small world to expand three times, the manor to be upgraded into a palace, and for a trace of spiritual energy to be born. From now on, the small world would not only have fresher and more pleasant air, but living inside would also slowly improve one's physical fitness.

The second reward was a 'Person-Seeking Compass'; as long as one silently recited the name of the person they wanted to find, they could rely on the compass to find them.

The third reward was the 'Four Symbols Sun-Shooting Arrow Technique'. Now everything was complete.

Afterward, Lin Fan fell asleep, contentedly holding onto Yue Yue Lingshan's great truths.

The next morning, Yue Yue Lingshan woke up and found that Lin Fan was still holding onto her great truths, so she secretly closed her eyes again.

Lin Fan also slowly opened his eyes, then squeezed her great truths, so Yue Yue Lingshan couldn't keep up the act anymore and got up with a flushed face to serve Lin Fan as he dressed.

Afterward, the two walked out of the room and arrived at the main hall, where the women had already prepared breakfast and were waiting there.

"Yo, flushed face so early in the morning? Were you doing something bad just now?"

Seeing Yue Yue Lingshan's flushed complexion, Huang Rong couldn't help but tease her.

"Cough, cough, let's just eat breakfast."

Seeing that Yue Yue Lingshan was being teased to the point of embarrassment by Huang Rong, Lin Fan spoke up to divert the topic for her.

Huang Rong stopped bullying the easily shy Yue Yue Lingshan, and then Lin Fan and the women began to eat breakfast.

After eating, Lin Fan took the women outside the manor.

"Brother Fan, why did you call us all out?"

Huang Rong asked with some curiosity.

"That's right, Husband, are you planning to take us all out? There are too many people, it's not convenient to travel!"

Yang Yan also didn't know what Lin Fan was planning.

"The next moment is the moment to witness a miracle."

As Lin Fan said this, he began the upgrade of the small world. The entire small world shook slightly, then rapidly expanded, and the manor quietly transformed into a palace.

"Alright, now who is coming out with me?"

"Well, it seems I'll have to be alone today."

After the small world upgrade was completed, Lin Fan prepared to ask the women who would go out with him today.

But the women had already happily run off to the palace to check the situation, so Lin Fan could only leave the small world alone.

Having left the small world, Lin Fan appeared in the inn room, then opened the door and walked out.

"Young Master Lin is awake? Qin Mengyao was just about to call you!"

Qin Qin Mengyao was standing outside Lin Fan's door at this moment, and seeing Lin Fan walk out, she couldn't help but say with a smile.

At this time, she had already removed her veil and changed into a pale pink dress, smiling beautifully and looking radiant.

"Oh? Has Qin Mengyao had breakfast? Also, no need to call me Young Master Lin; you can call me Lin Fan, or Husband is fine too!"

Lin Fan teased this contemporary successor of Cihang Cihang Jingzhai.

"Then I shall call you Lin Fan. As for 'Husband', let's talk about that later."

Qin Qin Mengyao wasn't angry, but she didn't agree to call Lin Fan 'Husband' either.

Lin Fan nodded, then went downstairs with Qin Qin Mengyao to drink morning tea.

"Master, why didn't you call me when you got up?"

After a while, Yun Luo ran down in a rush, looking at Lin Fan with resentment.

"I am not your master. Aren't you supposed to learn martial arts from Mo Chou? Besides, you're a young lady, how could I go knocking on your door early in the morning?"

Lin Fan calmly took a sip of tea and then explained.

"Ah, what about Sister Mo Chou and the others?"

"They have things to attend to. You'll know later!"

Lin Fan said with a smile.

"But..."

"Lin Fan, something has happened!"

Yun Luo was about to say more, but Lu Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Hua Manlou ran over and interrupted her.

"Don't rush, drink some tea first. The sky won't fall, and even if it does, the tall ones will hold it up. What are you afraid of!"

"Oh my, you're still in the mood to joke? I'm telling you, something really big has happened!"

"Then tell me, I'm listening. Did the Jin troops invade, or did the Mongols invade?"

Seeing that Lu Lu Xiaofeng was indeed anxious, Lin Fan stopped teasing him.

"Neither. Zhao Gou has been captured, and the other side has even put out word demanding that you go save him!"

Lu Lu Xiaofeng said anxiously.

"Say that again! Zhao Gou was captured, and you want me to save him? On what grounds? You seem to have a serious illness in your brain!"

Lin Fan suspected that either he had misheard or Lu Lu Xiaofeng had misspoken. Zhao Gou being captured had nothing to do with him.

"It's not what I said, it's what the person who captured him said."

Lu Lu Xiaofeng said helplessly.

"The one who captured him is the Little Demon Master Fang Fang Yeyu. You killed Li Li Chimei and caused trouble; the Demon Master's Palace has come knocking."

"Oh."

Lin Fan nodded thoughtfully.

"Are you not going to the appointment?"

"Whose appointment?"

"The Little Demon Master Fang Fang Yeyu's!"

"When did I agree? This is entirely his own wishful thinking, isn't it!"

Lin Fan felt helpless; if I go just because someone calls me, I'd lose so much face.

"But Zhao Gou is still in his hands."

"None of my business. The fact that I didn't kill him is already a huge favor. You don't still expect me to go save him, do you?"

"Even if you don't save Zhao Gou, if someone invites you and you don't go, you'll lose face, right? In the future, there will be rumors in the martial arts world that you were afraid of Fang Fang Yeyu."

"When I meet Fang Fang Yeyu, I'll slaughter him. Then the people in the martial arts world will change their tune; they'll say I didn't bother to argue with Fang Fang Yeyu before and let him off out of the kindness of my heart. Lu Lu Xiaofeng, you understand the ins and outs of the martial arts world much better than I do; how can you still not see past this? It's just a hollow reputation, no need to take it to heart!"

Lin Fan didn't care at all; the one who laughs last is the winner.

"By the way, what about Huang Shang? With him around, Zhao Gou shouldn't have been captured, right?"

"Huang Shang was seriously injured by Chi Zunxin. He also entrusted someone to send me a message, asking me to request your help in rescuing Zhao Gou. After all, if Zhao Gou dies, the entire Southern Song will be in jeopardy."

"I have no interest in rescuing Zhao Gou, but I can offer an idea to solve the Southern Song's predicament."

"Really?"

"Naturally. Tell him to forget that piece of trash Zhao Gou, support Zhao Zhen in ascending the throne, and then re-employ Yue Fei and entrust him with important responsibilities. That way, the Southern Song can be stabilized."

Lin Fan said eloquently.

Both of Zhao Ji's emperor sons were trash; one was Emperor Qinzong Zhao Huan, who sat in prison with him, and the other was Emperor Gaozong Zhao Gou.

But he also had two good sons, one civil and one martial. The civil one was Zhao Ji's fifth son, Zhao Shu, and the martial one was Zhao Ji's eighteenth son, Zhao Zhen. Neither of them was very famous, but their abilities were not bad at all.

Now that the Southern Song is in jeopardy, it needs a strong emperor to revitalize the country, so Zhao Zhen is more suitable.

"Alright, I'll have someone notify him, but whether he listens or not, I don't know!"

Lu Lu Xiaofeng knew that it was impossible for Lin Fan to go save Zhao Gou, so he planned to tell Huang Shang about Lin Fan's proposal and see what choice Huang Shang would make.
