Chapter 306: Holy Maiden

"Are you sick in the head? Master Tianji is here; you don't ask him to save your life, yet you're thinking of dragging your heavily injured body to flee?"

The green-clad woman said with some helplessness.

"Holy Maiden, you don't know, but every time I meet Lin Fan, nothing good happens. The first time I met him, Little Junior Sister and I were being besieged by mountain bandits. Although he saved us, Little Junior Sister fell for him at first sight. I would have preferred he hadn't intervened; if that were the case, perhaps if I had fought to the death to rescue Little Junior Sister, she might not have fallen in love with Lin Fan!"

As Linghu Chong spoke, he kept looking at Lin Fan with resentment.

"Linghu Chong, what you're saying isn't right. I didn't make a move back then; it was my sister-in-law who did. Even so, Lingshan still fell in love with me, so your hypothesis doesn't hold up!"

Lin Fan drank a cup of tea and then said with a smile.

"Kill them!"

At this moment, the dozens of people behind had already shouted and charged up.

"Subduing Dragon Regret!"

Lin Fan unleashed a move from the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms, and immediately two golden dragons spiraled toward the incoming people; the vigorous palm force instantly killed all the enemies.

"What about the second time?"

Seeing that the enemies were dead, the green-clad woman was no longer in a hurry and asked in a calm tone.

"The second time was in Hengyang City. I asked him to help rescue Junior Sister Yilin of the Hengshan Sect from the hands of Tian Boguang. I originally only wanted him to save the person, but I didn't expect him to kill Brother Tian directly."

"The third time was at the Five Mountains Assembly when he took Little Junior Sister away directly!"

As he spoke, Linghu Chong looked at Lin Fan with dissatisfaction, but Lin Fan didn't care at all—how could a divine dragon in the sky care about the provocations of ants on the ground?

"I think this young master did the right thing. Tian Boguang, the 'Ten Thousand Mile Lone Traveler', is a rapist and a bandit who commits every evil imaginable. You actually call him brother? Are you still a righteous disciple of the Huashan Sect? If I were your master, I would definitely punish you, this rebellious disciple!"

The green-clad woman couldn't help but roll her eyes; Linghu Chong was a bit unable to distinguish right from wrong.

"But aren't you the Holy Maiden of the Demon Sect? Are you a bad person too? Does that mean I should attack you? I think the Evil Sect isn't necessarily all bad people; perhaps it would be better to let them turn over a new leaf!"

Linghu Chong had long since developed his own set of standards for acting in the Jianghu. His way of treating people and things was heavily subjective; if he thought something was good, then it was good, and if he thought it was bad, then it was bad.

"You actually compare me to Tian Boguang? I was born into the Demon Sect and had no choice, but even so, I have never wantonly harmed lives or committed heinous crimes. Tian Boguang, however, is a rapist and a bandit who commits every evil. You want to give him a chance to turn over a new leaf? Then let me ask you, what right do you have to represent those girls whose innocence was defiled by Tian Boguang to forgive him? If the one whose innocence was defiled was someone close to you—your Junior Sister, your Mistress—would you still forgive him? Looking at it this way, you really are unable to distinguish right from wrong!"

The green-clad woman was a bit angry. She had originally thought Linghu Chong had a chivalrous heart, was sincere and generous in treating others, and was a friend worth making. She had even specially brought wine that could increase internal energy to give to him. She hadn't expected him to be someone so unable to distinguish right from wrong; she had really misjudged him, and her good wine had gone to waste.

"Even you say that? The dead are gone, and the past follows the wind. We cannot look at him with strange eyes just because of things he hasn't done yet. But if Tian Boguang truly dared to be disrespectful to my Junior Sister or Mistress, I would definitely not let him off!"

Linghu Chong said with a serious expression.

"With your martial arts, are you a match for Tian Boguang? Besides, once he has truly laid hands on your Junior Sister or Mistress, the wood will already be carved into a boat—what good would it do even if you killed him then?"

The green-clad woman sneered. Linghu Chong's values were incompatible with hers; it was better not to be friends.

"You..."

Linghu Chong was about to say more, but was interrupted by the green-clad woman.

"Alright, you don't need to say more. You're already injured; you'd better hurry and find a town to heal your wounds!"

"Fine, farewell!"

Linghu Chong heard the alienation in the green-clad woman's words and felt uncomfortable inside, so he didn't even say the polite phrase "until we meet again" and left angrily, dragging his heavily injured body.

"Greetings, Master Tianji. Hearing of you a hundred times is not as good as seeing you once; you are indeed like an immortal descended to the world, elegant and refined!"

"To be able to receive the praise of Miss Ren Yingying, I, Lin, am also extremely honored. However, I'm afraid these kind words aren't so easy to accept."

Lin Fan looked at Ren Yingying. The other party's demeanor and words carried a slight hint of flattery; this must mean she had something to ask of him. Besides rescuing Ren Woxing, could there be anything else?

"You guessed that I have something to ask of you?"

"That is natural. You want me to take action to rescue Ren Woxing?"

"That's right."

"I won't save him."

"Won't you listen to my conditions?"

"Oh? I'd like to hear the details."

"Me!"

"?"

"I said my condition is me. As long as you help me rescue my father, I am willing to offer myself to you!"

"The condition is quite tempting, but I advise you not to save him!"

"My appearance and figure aren't bad either. Why don't you agree? Could it be that I have no attraction to you at all?"

Ren Yingying took off her bamboo hat, revealing her stunningly beautiful face, then puffed out her chest and asked in confusion.

"You are quite attractive, but I don't want you to use yourself as a bargaining chip. Besides, what kind of person do you think your father is? If he comes out, will he seek revenge on Dongfang Bubai? Is his martial arts a match for Dongfang Bubai's? If you let him out, it will only accelerate his death!"

Lin Fan said in a calm tone.

"But, but then should I not save my father? As a daughter, I cannot keep watching him suffer!"

After hearing Lin Fan's words, Ren Yingying was silent for a moment, then said.

"How about you help my father kill Dongfang Bubai? I will submit to you, and you will be my father's son-in-law. Then you helping your father-in-law with a favor and killing Dongfang Bubai shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Although she knew through the diary copy that Lin Fan had an interest in Dongfang Bubai, he had never met Dongfang Bubai after all, while she was standing right in front of Lin Fan—perhaps he would choose her.

"You think quite well, using yourself to tie me to your father's pirate ship. Wouldn't I then become his personal thug, letting him rely on me to dominate the Wu Lin? Kill Dongfang Bubai today, wipe out the Six Great Sects tomorrow, and destroy Wudang and Shaolin the day after to dominate the world. I imagine at that time he would say he'd share half the Wu Lin with me to win me over. Don't say he wouldn't; you should know what kind of person he is!"

Lin Fan looked at Ren Yingying with interest and said.

Ren Yingying felt a bit ashamed, because she knew what Lin Fan said was very likely; her father was exactly that kind of ambitious hero.

"Then what should I do? For a moment, I don't know what to do either!"

Ren Yingying had previously been single-mindedly focused on rescuing Ren Woxing and had never considered what would happen after he came out. Now, reminded by Lin Fan, she was a bit at a loss; to save him or not to save him, it was truly worrying her to death. ===== CHAPTER 308 =====
