Chapter 418
"I understand what you mean. From now on, let them look to their own fate!"
After a long silence, Li Li Xiuning finally sighed and nodded.
"Lin Fan, Jade Crane Nunnery is just ahead!"
Just at this moment, Shi Shi Qingxuan, who was in Lin Fan's arms, suddenly spoke up.
"Good, giddy-up!"
Lin Fan patted the Night-Shining Jade Lion, and it immediately accelerated into a wild gallop. Fortunately, the distance was very short, otherwise Li Li Xiuning and Hong Fu Nu's horses would never have been able to keep up.
Arriving in front of Jade Crane Nunnery, Lin Fan held Shi Shi Qingxuan and Shen Shen Bijun and soared into the sky, landing at the main gate. As for the Night-Shining Jade Lion, it stayed quietly in place.
The fine horse was intelligent; Lin Fan didn't need to tie it up. Shi Shi Qingxuan stepped forward to knock on the door, and Li Li Xiuning and Hong Fu Nu also hurriedly dismounted and ran over.
"Patron Shi, it's you? It's not yet time to pay respects to your late mother this year, is it?"
A nun opened the door and walked out, bowing to Shi Shi Qingxuan before speaking.
"Greetings, Abbess Jingyin. Actually, it's because I have found my destination, so I came specially to tell my mother!"
Shi Shi Qingxuan held Lin Fan's hand and walked in front of Abbess Jingyin to say this.
"That is excellent. I believe your mother in the underworld will also feel happy for you. I won't disturb you all; Patron Shi, please feel free to do as you wish!"
Abbess Jingyin congratulated Shi Shi Qingxuan and then cleared the way.
"Many thanks, Abbess!"
Afterwards, Shi Shi Qingxuan held Lin Fan's hand and walked toward the spirit hall where her mother's spirit tablet was placed.
"Mother, your daughter has come. Are you curious why your daughter has come so early this year? Because your daughter has found her destination."
"When Lin Fan arrived at the Quiet Forest Cottage, love arrived. You said that when love arrives, one cannot escape even if one wants to, but your daughter does not want to escape. Being able to be with Lin Fan, your daughter is willing to accept it gladly. So, your daughter has decided to marry Lin Fan as his wife. Tonight, before your spirit, we will become husband and wife. Even if I am heartlessly abandoned by him in the future, I will never regret it."
After lighting three sticks of incense for Bi Xiuxin with Lin Fan, Shi Shi Qingxuan knelt before her mother's spirit and began to pour out her heart.
"Shi Qingxuan, rest assured. Today, before your mother's spirit, I also swear that in this life and this world, I will never fail you. If I break this oath..."
"Enough, Lin Fan. As long as you can fulfill the first half of that sentence, it will be the greatest happiness of Shi Qingxuan's life. I don't want to hear anything bad about you!"
Lin Fan was swearing before Bi Xiuxin's spirit, but halfway through, his mouth was covered by Shi Shi Qingxuan. Since she had made her decision, she would never regret it, and naturally, she didn't need Lin Fan to say the rest.
"Who?"
Lin Fan instantly activated Thunder Startles the Azure Dragon and arrived on the roof of the spirit hall. Looking at the person before him who was somewhat unrestrained, rebellious, and carried a sense of loneliness, Lin Fan was lost in thought.
"Are you the Evil Emperor Shi Zhixuan?"
Lin Fan asked the question with a tone of certainty.
"You are the man Shi Qingxuan has set her eyes on? Today I want to see how her judgment is, and I want to know if the man she has chosen can actually protect her!"
Shi Zhixuan was somewhat manic, directly using the Phantom Demon Body Technique to attack Lin Fan. Unfortunately, with his strength as a Grandmaster, he was simply not enough in front of Lin Fan. Even though Lin Fan didn't use any lightness skills and just moved and dodged simply, Shi Zhixuan couldn't even touch his clothes.
"Seven Illusions of Immortality!"
Seeing that the Phantom Demon Body Technique couldn't do anything to Lin Fan, Shi Zhixuan used the Seven Illusions of Immortality, which he had created by fusing the Undying Seal Method and the Phantom Demon Body Technique. Instantly, his figure became as elegant as a ghost and as agile as a bird.
"Netherworld Ghost Shadow!"
Lin Fan became interested and wanted to see if Shi Zhixuan's masterpiece of martial arts could do anything to him.
Lin Fan discovered that Shi Zhixuan's movement technique fused illusions, wanting to interfere with his perception through spiritual energy. However, he cultivated the Sword Twenty-Three and had a clear sword heart. Furthermore, he could already manifest his Primordial Spirit, so his spirit was naturally incomparably powerful. Even Pang Ban's Dao Heart Planting Demon Great Art couldn't do anything to him, let alone the Seven Illusions of Immortality.
If he weren't afraid of hurting Shi Zhixuan, Lin Fan would have taken him down long ago. Knocking him out wouldn't work either, because Lin Fan guessed that Shi Shi Qingxuan had words for Shi Zhixuan, and how could she say them if he were knocked out?
"Stop! You are not allowed to fight Lin Fan anymore. He is my husband; it won't be good if he hurts you!"
Shi Shi Qingxuan also flew onto the eaves at this moment and hurriedly spoke to stop Shi Zhixuan.
"Shi Qingxuan, you are overestimating him too much. This brat is just bullying me for being old and weak. If it were when I was young, I would have taken him down long ago!"
Shi Zhixuan said, still unconvinced.
He was also a proud and arrogant person. Seeing Lin Fan was young and he couldn't take him down, he felt he had lost face in front of his daughter, so he was somewhat relentless.
"He is a Land Immortal."
Shi Shi Qingxuan didn't expect Shi Zhixuan to be so stubborn. Feeling somewhat helpless, she had no choice but to tell him the truth.
"He is, he is a Land Immortal? Then I must see if he can protect you!"
After speaking, Shi Zhixuan attacked Lin Fan again.
Because of the incident with Bi Xiuxin, Shi Zhixuan's mind was somewhat split; at this moment, he was clearly having an episode!
Lin Fan yielded at every turn, but Shi Zhixuan became increasingly manic. If it weren't for the massive gap between him and Lin Fan, anyone else would probably have been injured by the reckless Shi Zhixuan long ago.
"Father, stop fighting!"
Shi Shi Qingxuan's sudden cry of "Father" awakened Shi Zhixuan, and he suddenly became clear-headed.
"Shi Qingxuan, you are willing to call me Father?"
Shi Zhixuan used the Seven Illusions of Immortality to arrive beside Shi Shi Qingxuan, looking at her with an excited expression.
"That's right, I have let go. Father, Mother's death cannot be blamed on you. I hope you can put this matter down in the future and live a good life!"
Shi Shi Qingxuan said earnestly. After meeting Lin Fan, she finally knew how deeply engraved love could be. Her father had suffered a mental breakdown because of her mother's death, which showed how deep his love was. Her mother was dead, and although she was in pain, her father was in even more pain!
