Chapter 370

"Exactly. Did you not hear that Lady Xiufang decided herself that she would no longer perform? Stop playing deaf and dumb here!"

The guests present discussed it heatedly, yet no one dared to pursue them.

Lin Fan held Shang Xiufang in his arms, mounted the Night-Shining Jade Lion, and began to gallop away as soon as they left Jin Ling City.

"Young Master Lin, why does this concubine feel as if you are here to snatch a bride?"

Shang Xiufang found a comfortable position to lie in Lin Fan's arms, then asked with composure.

"Oh? Then I wonder whom Xiufang wishes to marry?"

Lin Fan looked down and saw the corners of Shang Xiufang's mouth slightly upturned; he knew she was joking.

"What does Young Master Lin think?"

Unfortunately, Shang Xiufang did not answer and instead countered Lin Fan with a question.

"Beneath one person but above ten thousand, peerless in martial arts, and possessing the talent of a Top Graduate?"

Lin Fan also began to smile playfully.

"Young Master Lin is joking. This concubine has no interest in fighting and killing, so I have no pursuit of power, fame, or wealth. Instead, I pursue a meeting of eyes and a resonance of hearts!"

Shang Xiufang gave Lin Fan a charming roll of her eyes, then spoke slowly.

"That is difficult indeed. The requirements I mentioned earlier at least have a direction to strive for, but what Xiufang speaks of is truly following one's heart. I wonder if I meet your eyes, and if I can resonate with Xiufang's heart?"

Lin Fan raised an eyebrow; Shang Xiufang's standards were quite high.

"If Young Master Lin did not satisfy these, why would this concubine leave with you?"

"That makes sense. However, I am truly fortunate to have gained Xiufang's favor. This truly makes me feel overwhelmed with trepidation!"

"Yet from Young Master Lin's expression, this concubine can only feel your sense of entitlement. However, I like this confident appearance of yours."

"Hahaha, that is excellent. Giddyap!"

Lin Fan laughed heartily, whipped his horse, and the figures of the two gradually disappeared at the end of the road.

Before they knew it, the two and the horse arrived at a mountain of jagged rocks, and there was actually an inn in this desolate wilderness.

However, the inn was already surrounded by a group of men. They were peeking inside through the gaps in the wooden planks with lecherous expressions.

Lin Fan saw this scene and became thoughtful, while Shang Xiufang frowned slightly. Because the group of men before her wore such lewd smiles, it meant they were certainly spying on a woman, which disgusted her immensely.

At this moment, the men surrounding the inn could no longer wait; they smashed through the wooden wall and rushed inside.

"Young Master Lin!"

"Xiufang, there is no need to be anxious. If something is truly wrong, I naturally will not sit idly by. I only fear that someone might not need our help!"

Lin Fan looked with interest at the room, whose wall had been smashed through and was now ventilated on all sides.

In the center of the room was a massive bath, where a stunning woman with a gorgeous appearance and a charming expression was bathing. Clearly, it was she who had attracted the gaze of these men.

"Could this beauty, who makes one feel pity at first sight, be a peerless expert?"

Hearing Lin Fan's implication, Shang Xiufang scrutinized the woman in the room seriously.

"She cannot be counted as a peerless expert, but with her Grandmaster-level strength, dealing with these lust-driven mountain bandits and thugs is more than enough."

Before his voice faded, a fight had already broken out inside. Those bandits and thugs bullied the woman for not wearing clothes, not only teasing her with words but also mocking her, yet they were all knocked down by the bath towel the woman casually flung out.

The woman leaped out of the bath; it turned out she was still wearing clothes, only exposing her arms and thighs. However, with such bold attire in this Comprehensive Wu Gong World, only that demoness Wan Wan could be mentioned in the same breath as her.

Shang Xiufang watched the woman display her power to teach the thugs a lesson, while Lin Fan watched the woman's jade-like skin with interest.

With such bold attire, it was likely only the 'Spirit' Feng Siniang who could pull it off.

"Is it good to look at?"

Suddenly, a playful voice came from Lin Fan's ear.

"The fighting is slightly monotonous, and the moves are sloppy. I don't think it's good!"

Lin Fan spoke calmly and eloquently.

"I'd be a fool to believe you!"

Shang Xiufang said with a coquettish pout, but she had long known that Lin Fan was a sentimental seed, so she was not surprised.

Moreover, Shang Xiufang did not think she would lose to the woman inside. Not to mention anything else, just in terms of skin, she was much fairer and more delicate than the woman inside.

Just then, a man wearing a bamboo hat and carrying two sabers at his waist walked in.

The saber-wielder in the bamboo hat did not waste words; his saber was as fast as lightning, and with a single strike, he slaughtered more than a dozen bandits.

"Young Master Lin, you said the woman inside has poor martial arts, but what about this man? His saber is so fast I can't even see it clearly. However, in this Jianghu, fighting and killing often mean life-or-death struggles. One second you are alive and kicking, the next you return to the underworld. I truly don't understand what it is for!"

Seeing more than a dozen bandits die miserably, Shang Xiufang could not help but sigh.

"His saber is passable. Since he uses dual sabers, but uses his right hand to strike first, does Xiufang know what that means?"

Lin Fan raised an eyebrow and asked with interest.

"This concubine truly does not know. Does it mean his right hand is his dominant hand?"

Shang Xiufang did not understand martial arts, so it was truly difficult for her to guess this, but she naturally would not dampen Lin Fan's mood.

"No, it means his left-hand saber is faster. Because trump cards usually need to be hidden, unless necessary, no one will use their full strength! It is only a pity that his left hand is already severed. It seems someone is faster than his left-hand saber, so his saber can only be called passable!"

Inside the house, Feng Siniang heard Lin Fan's words and hurriedly checked the saber-wielder's left hand, and sure enough, she discovered only an empty sleeve remained.

"Everyone in Jianghu knows that the Divine Saber Hua Ping uses both hands, striking with both flying, but I know your left-hand saber is more than twice as fast as your right-hand one. Who exactly is faster than your left-hand saber?"

Seeing this, Feng Siniang's expression changed slightly, and she asked curiously.

"Your old friend!"

Hua Ping said with a calm expression.

"Xiao Shiyilang!"

Now the woman was even more shocked; she did not expect that it was Xiao Shiyilang who had severed the left hand of the Divine Saber Hua Ping.

"This Young Master, do you study the saber?"

However, Hua Ping no longer paid her any mind and instead walked out to ask Lin Fan.

"I do not like the saber!"

Lin Fan replied with a smile.

"Then do you study the sword?"

Hua Ping's expression remained unchanged as he continued to pursue the question.

"I use the sword!"

Lin Fan flipped his wrist, and the Seven-Star Panlong appeared in his hand.

"Seven-Star Panlong? You are the Heavenly Secret Young Master Lin Fan!"

Feng Siniang chased out, and seeing the Seven-Star Panlong sword in Lin Fan's hand, she could not help but exclaim.

Lin Fan was somewhat surprised; he did not expect that one day he would expose his identity because of the Seven-Star Panlong sword. This Feng Siniang was truly worthy of being a thief-matriarch; nothing good could escape her eyes.
