Chapter 296: Jiang Ni Leaves

~8 min read 1,467 words

The little Daoist boy didn't dare to ask and respectfully performed a Daoist salute to Lin Fan before hurrying away.

"To condense infinite sword intent onto a thin piece of paper, only you can possess this attainment. Wang Wang Xianzhi is not as good as you!"

Li Li Chungang suddenly spoke.

"Wang Wang Xianzhi, known as the number one person in the Liyang Dynasty, is not a Celestial, yet he doesn't fear Celestials? Why do I feel that those Celestials are too weak?"

Hearing the name Wang Wang Xianzhi, Lin Fan also smiled.

Invincible at the same level, fighting across levels? Who can't do that? He doesn't fear Celestials even at the Heaven-Man Unity realm.

I heard Wang Wang Xianzhi also has a talent for remembering immortality with one glance. I wonder if he can remember my 'Dragon God Art'.

"For you, it is indeed too weak. You monsters don't give others a way to live at all. Your talent is terrifyingly strong, and fighting across levels is as simple as eating and drinking!"

Li Li Chungang also felt some emotion. Heaven is unfair, always favoring certain lucky people.

"How is it, Cao Cao Changqing, have you figured it out? Finding Jiang Ni to go back and restore the country is a mistake. Letting her bear a responsibility she cannot bear is also a secondary injury to the Western Chu survivors. Knowing this is the wrong path, do you still want to go down it?"

Lin Fan turned his head and asked Cao Cao Changqing, who had already recovered.

"How can you say a path that hasn't been tried is wrong? Perhaps only by trying can you prove whether it is right or wrong!"

Although Cao Cao Changqing was somewhat shaken, the belief he had insisted on for so many years was to find Jiang Ni and help her restore the country, so he was still somewhat unwilling.

"You liked the Empress of Great Chu back then, that is, Jiang Ni's mother, right? I really want to see this 'Color Armor' among the Spring and Autumn Thirteen Armors. Unfortunately, I have no fate to see her in this life!"

"After the Empress of Great Chu died, she was written in unofficial history as a vixen who brought disaster to the country, believing that she, who brought disaster to the country and the people, caused the destruction of the Chu country. Do you want to clear her name? But have you thought about her wishes? The Chu country has already perished. Perhaps she hoped that Jiang Ni could live a safe and happy life by entrusting her to Xu Xiao before she died? Why do you want to forcibly add your own thoughts to her and drag her into the vortex of restoring the country? You are too selfish!"

Lin Fan stared at Cao Cao Changqing. Who could have thought that this man dressed as a down-and-out middle-aged scholar was actually the 'Invincible in Ending the Game' Cao Guanzi back then.

He had always had a secret crush on Jiang Ni's mother, the Color Armor Western Chu Empress. After the destruction of the Chu country, he traveled for many years to find Jiang Ni, and restoring the country was only to prove that the Color Armor was not a disaster for Western Chu. It was truly sad and sigh-worthy.

"Ask the world, what is love, that makes life and death promise?"

Lin Fan looked at Cao Cao Changqing, whose expression was constantly changing, with some emotion, and then instructed the Xuan Yuan family's guest officials to continue giving medicine to Xuan Yuan Xuanyuan Dapan and Xuan Yuan Xuanyuan Jingxuan. Today, neither of these two could escape.

These two were birds of a feather, and such a way of death was just right for them. It would be good to have company on the road to the Yellow Springs.

The Xuan Yuan family's guest officials didn't dare to disobey Lin Fan's meaning, fearing that Lin Fan would also throw them to Xuan Yuan Xuanyuan Dapan, so they desperately poured medicine for Xuan Yuan Xuanyuan Dapan and Xuan Yuan Xuanyuan Jingxuan.

Seeing this scene, Lin Fan smiled indifferently. It is said that the way to control subordinates is to combine kindness and power, but I don't. May I ask who dares to disobey me?

"Princess, do you feel a lot of pressure now? Do you really want to walk the path of restoring the country in your heart?"

Cao Cao Changqing was moved by Lin Fan and walked to Jiang Ni's side to ask softly.

"I..."

Jiang Ni was somewhat hesitant.

"I understand. Princess, take care. The guilty minister Cao Cao Changqing takes his leave!"

Cao Cao Changqing nodded somewhat lonely, then turned and prepared to leave here.

He loved Jiang Ni's mother, the Western Chu Empress, so he wanted to restore the country to clear her name, but how could he force her daughter to do things she didn't like?

"Wait, Uncle Uncle Qizhao, I am willing to restore the country with you and clear my mother's name!"

Jiang Ni finally called Cao Cao Changqing back. She indeed didn't have such a firm belief in restoring the country before, but now that she knew the ins and outs of the matter, she was willing to do this for her mother.

Hearing this, Lin Fan looked at Jiang Ni with some surprise, and then laughed at himself.

He was just a stranger, so how could he shake Jiang Ni's heart to restore the country with just a few words?

She and Xu Fengnian were childhood sweethearts and lived together day and night, so she should be listening to his words.

"Brother Lin, thank you for your advice, but living in this world, you can't live just by personal likes and dislikes. There are always some people and some things worth your desperate attempt. Even if you fail in the end, at least you have tried, and you will have no regrets in your heart. So Jiang Ni can only let down your good intentions!"

Unexpectedly, Jiang Ni walked slowly to Lin Fan's side and stared into his eyes to explain.

"So that's how it is. Then I understand. Then I wish the young lady success in restoring the country!"

Jiang Ni insisted on this, and Lin Fan didn't persuade her anymore, only sending a blessing.

"If, if I fail to restore Chu, and the Liyang army attacks Guangling Road again, will you come to Jiangnan from thousands of miles away to save me?"

Jiang Ni suddenly asked with a serious expression.

"Do you hope I will save you?"

Lin Fan was somewhat moved. After a moment of silence, he didn't answer but asked Jiang Ni back.

"I hope!"

"Then I will go."

"Then I will wait for you!"

Hearing this, Jiang Ni smiled faintly, revealing small dimples. Being able to hear Lin Fan's promise, even if he didn't come in the end, she would have no regrets.

Then Jiang Ni stared at Lin Fan in a daze for a moment, suddenly stood on tiptoe and wanted to steal a kiss from Lin Fan, but found that even if she stood on tiptoe, she still couldn't reach Lin Fan's face.

Lin Fan looked at Jiang Ni, who was wrapping her arms around his neck, in confusion, somewhat puzzled about what this girl wanted to do?

"Brother Lin, lower your head!"

Jiang Ni was so anxious she almost jumped up, and although Lin Fan didn't understand, he still bent his waist and brought his face to Jiang Ni.

Jiang Ni pecked Lin Fan on the corner of his mouth, then fled back to Cao Cao Changqing's side in a panic and joy.

"Uncle Uncle Qizhao, let's go, return to Western Chu, restore the country!"

After speaking, Jiang Ni turned and walked down the mountain without looking back, because even if she looked back once, she was afraid she would shake her determination to restore the country, and then she would be reluctant to leave Lin Fan.

Lin Fan was somewhat confused. Why did Jiang Ni ambush him? Shouldn't she like Xu Fengnian?

But looking at Xu Fengnian, who was also confused beside him, it was clear he didn't understand what Jiang Ni was thinking either.

"Young Master, they're dead!"

Just when Lin Fan was frowning and thinking, a Xuan Yuan family guest official walked over and interrupted his thoughts.

"This young master is not dead, I'm living quite well!"

Lin Fan said with annoyance.

"No, Young Master, it's Xuan Yuan Xuanyuan Dapan and Xuan Yuan Xuanyuan Jingxuan who are dead!"

The guest official glared at his colleagues who pushed him over, and then explained flatteringly.

"So fast, can't you take it easy?"

Hearing this, Lin Fan was somewhat stunned and somewhat dissatisfied.
