Chapter 219
"Giddyup!"
Lin Fan rode the Night-Shining Jade Lion toward Chang'an. He held Shi Shi Qingxuan in his arms and had Wei Wei Zhenzhen sitting behind him. This alternative way of having a beauty on each side was enough to make others envious.
"Lin Fan, have you always been on the road?"
Shi Shi Qingxuan, curled up in Lin Fan's arms, suddenly spoke.
"Most of the time."
Lin Fan replied after thinking for a while.
"Why?"
Shi Shi Qingxuan leaned in closer.
"Because of greed? Wanting to see more beautiful scenery, participate in more major Jianghu events, and gain the favor of more beauties."
"Won't you be tired?"
"I'll stop when I'm tired. Why is Shi Qingxuan suddenly so sentimental?"
Lin Fan keenly sensed that the beauty's emotions in his arms were wrong.
"It's nothing, I just feel that there are too many national hatreds, family grudges, and grievances in this world. I feel like that Fu Junzhuo has lost her goal in life."
"After all, she is a patriotic nationalist who always thought her people loved peace and were content with their lot, which is why she resolutely traveled far to the Central Plains to prepare to assassinate Yang Guang. However, the truth is far more cruel than she imagined, and she just finds it hard to accept for a moment."
Shi Shi Qingxuan nodded thoughtfully and then nestled in Lin Fan's arms without speaking.
Lin Fan rode with the two women until sunset, then told them not to blink, and brought them into the Small World.
"Where is this?"
Shi Shi Qingxuan and Wei Wei Zhenzhen were both surprised. After Lin Fan's reminder, they hadn't even blinked, so how did the world suddenly change, and they arrived in a new place?
"This is Brother Fan's Small World. Welcome to our big family!"
Huang Rong came out with the other women and welcomed the two newcomers.
"This is Shi Shi Qingxuan, and this is Wei Wei Zhenzhen. Why don't you introduce yourselves!"
"Let's eat first; we can talk while we eat!"
Huang Rong looked at the women behind her and felt a headache.
Lin Fan nodded and took the women to the long table in the hall to eat.
Huang Rong sat between Shi Shi Qingxuan and Wei Wei Zhenzhen and introduced the other women to them.
"Brother Fan, if you keep collecting new sisters for me like this, I'll have to spend half a day just introducing them!"
After roughly introducing the women to Shi Shi Qingxuan and Wei Wei Zhenzhen, Huang Rong couldn't help but complain to Lin Fan.
"Cough, cough, cough. Well, this… I really couldn't help it. Yes, I just couldn't help it. I'm not a playboy; I just want to give the girls of the world a home!"
Lin Fan was a bit embarrassed. How could he explain this? He just felt that since he had transmigrated, and to a comprehensive martial arts world with so many peerless beauties, wouldn't it be a waste of heaven's gifts if he didn't take them?
"Then will you give the ugly women of the world a home too?"
Yaoyue suddenly smiled playfully.
"I have to give others a chance, right? I can't sweep up all the beauties and then sweep up all the ugly women too. That would leave no women in the world, so I'll just take the beauties!"
Lin Fan didn't expect Yaoyue to start teasing him too. It seemed that having too many women was indeed a bit difficult to handle.
The only thing to be gratified about was that he possessed the Dragon Divine Art. As the saying goes, "a dragon is vigorous and a tiger is fierce." As long as he wanted to, knocking out all the women in one night was not a problem.
"My Yihua Palace disciples are all beautiful. How about I send them all to you as bed-warming maids?"
Yaoyue actually wanted to send him women; this was something Lin Fan hadn't expected.
"That won't be necessary. The two most beautiful pearls of Yihua Palace have already been plucked by me, so I won't bother the others."
However, Lin Fan still refused. His women were all famous figures from later generations, and those disciples clearly didn't meet the requirements.
The only one, Hua Yunu, was far inferior to Yaoyue and Lianxing.
"You are quite tolerant toward Yihua Palace, but you swept up my Ancient Tomb Sect!"
Lin Lin Chaoying was stunned and suddenly covered her mouth and giggled.
She, the founder of the sect; Xiaolongnu, the new Sect Master; Li Li Mochou, the former first disciple of the Ancient Tomb Sect; and her two disciples—all the living people had been swept up by Lin Fan.
"Who told your Ancient Tomb Sect to produce only beauties!"
Lin Fan also laughed, though he didn't know if Xiaolongnu and Li Li Mochou's master was beautiful.
But wait, that wasn't right. How was Lin Lin Chaoying still alive, and Xiaolongnu's master gone?
"Lin Chaoying, have you been living in seclusion in the Ancient Tomb all these years?"
Lin Fan suddenly asked thoughtfully.
"No, after I parted ways with Wang Wang Chongyang, I lived in seclusion in the Ancient Tomb to cultivate. Later, because of a mishap in my cultivation, I fell into a state of suspended animation, so I haven't walked the Jianghu since. Counting it, it's been about twenty years, and it hasn't been long since I woke up!"
Lin Lin Chaoying was stunned and then replied half-truthfully.
"A mishap in cultivation led to twenty years of suspended animation? Then you haven't seen Long'er and the others?"
Lin Fan was a bit surprised. There was such a strange story; no wonder Lin Lin Chaoying wasn't dead yet.
"Although I fell into suspended animation, I actually still had consciousness, so I know about Long'er and Li Mochou's affairs. I can be considered to have watched them grow up!"
Sure enough, one lie requires countless lies to fill. Lin Lin Chaoying felt helpless, and she was afraid that if Lin Fan kept asking, she wouldn't be able to keep up the charade.
The women saw that if he kept asking, Lin Lin Chaoying would be exposed, so they all covered for her.
"Brother Fan, how can you be like this? Why bring up these old stories now!"
Huang Rong said with feigned dissatisfaction.
"That's right. Maybe Lin Chaoying doesn't want to recall the past anymore. Why do you keep bringing it up? Do you have to remind Lin Chaoying that there was once a Wang Wang Chongyang?"
Yaoyue also covered for Lin Lin Chaoying.
"Alright, dinner is almost over. It's time to choose a consort for my husband. Who is serving tonight?"
Yang Yan suddenly asked.
"Princess Yunluo, Shi Shi Qingxuan, or Wei Wei Zhenzhen?"
Huang Rong also looked at the three women with interest.
"Since there are sisters ahead, let Sister Princess Yunluo go first!"
Shi Shi Qingxuan was willing to serve, but she felt it wasn't right to cut in line just after arriving, so she refused.
The women turned their eyes to Wei Wei Zhenzhen, making her feel uneasy.
"Since I was bought by the young master, I am a concubine, so I can do anything. It's fine for the sisters to go first. If you feel you can't handle it, Wei Zhenzhen is also willing to help!"
Shi Shi Qingxuan was about the same age as Princess Yunluo, so calling her sister was normal, but Wei Wei Zhenzhen was about three years older than them, yet she also called Princess Yunluo sister. The seniority was wrong.
It could only be said that she viewed herself too lowly, just because she was bought, she felt she was inferior.
"Sister Wei, I should be the one calling you sister. We don't have so many rules in our family. Since Lin Fan has taken a fancy to you, you are one of our sisters. In this family, everyone is an equal wife; there is no such thing as a concubine!"
Princess Yunluo stopped Wei Wei Zhenzhen's hand and said to her.
The women nodded in agreement. In this Small World, they were all equal; there was no distinction between maids, concubines, and wives.
