Chapter 499: The Lingering Regret of Yaoyue
After speaking, Lin Fan patted Xu Fengnian on the shoulder and left directly.
Xu Fengnian, oh Xu Fengnian, Northern Liang needs you. At a time like this, don't dwell on romantic entanglements. Pour all your energy into your career. First, secure Northern Liang, then take down Liyang, and finally finish off Northern Mang. Keep it up! I'll help you take in those confidantes of yours.
With no women in your heart, your sword will naturally become divine. Without these troublesome beauties, I believe you, kid, will surely achieve great things. Hand all these women over to me; I have nothing to do, and I can handle it!
"Why do I always feel like I've lost something?"
Xu Fengnian watched the back of Lin Fan as he left with the women, feeling a strange chill down his back, yet he couldn't find the source of this feeling.
"Kid, stop worrying about romantic entanglements. Isn't it just Qingniao? You already set her free. You wouldn't be regretting it, would you? Even if you regret it, it's too late now. If you regret it, Lin Fan might just come at you with a sword!"
Li Chungang thought Xu Fengnian still couldn't let go of Qingniao, so he offered some advice.
What he didn't know was that Xu Fengnian had lost Qingniao, Jiang Ni, Huishan Xuan Yuan Qingfeng, and Pei Nanwei all in one day, and Lin Fan had even set his sights on Yu Youwei and Xu Fengnian's nominal second sister, Xu Weixiong. This was shearing the sheep until it was bald.
"Senior, since I made the decision, I naturally won't regret it. It's not about Qingniao!"
Xu Fengnian shook his head in a daze; he just felt inexplicably uncomfortable in his heart.
"Then it's Jiang Ni, or that newcomer Pei Nanwei? Isn't that still romantic entanglement?"
Li Chungang looked at Xu Fengnian with a sense of frustration. This kid was nothing like his father, Xu Xiao. Xu Xiao had loved only Wu Su his entire life.
And this kid? Northern Liang was currently in the midst of a power transition, a time of instability, yet he was here dwelling on romance and feeling sentimental. Truly hopeless.
"Forget it, let's go!"
Xu Fengnian felt he couldn't explain it clearly, so he walked down the mountain without bothering to explain.
Li Chungang shook his head and followed Xu Fengnian away.
"What? You want to kill Xu Fengnian?"
In front of the main hall of Long Hushan, Zhao Xituan looked at Zhao Danping in shock, thinking he must have been driven mad by Lin Fan.
"That's right. This is an order personally issued by the Chief Cabinet Minister, Zhang Julu. Xu Fengnian has accepted the Great Yellow Court of Wudang. If Northern Liang rises in the future, Wudang will inevitably rank above our Long Hushan. Even if we don't kill Xu Fengnian, we must abolish his Great Yellow Court!"
Zhao Danping said viciously.
"You're mad, you're mad, you must be mad. I don't agree!"
Zhao Xituan refused without a second thought. To touch Xu Fengnian was to provoke Northern Liang, and Xu Xiao was a ruthless man.
"I don't need your agreement; I've already made the arrangements!"
Zhao Danping remained restless even after having one of his arms severed by Lin Fan's sword intent.
"Alright, it's getting late. I'll take you all to a place to visit!"
Lin Fan waved his large hand and returned to the small world with the women.
"Where is this?"
Pei Nanwei, Huishan Xuan Yuan Qingfeng, and Qingniao all looked at Lin Fan in surprise.
"This is the small world that belongs exclusively to Lin Fan. Welcome!"
Lin Chaoying brought the women out to welcome Lin Fan, while Huang Rong and the others were preparing dinner.
"You will understand slowly in the future. Let's go inside first!"
Lin Fan turned his head to say a word to the women, then led them toward the palace.
"Still watching the home theater?"
When Lin Fan walked in, he found Yaoyue still intently watching Linger's battle against the Water Demon Beast.
"Don't make noise!"
Yaoyue impatiently interrupted Lin Fan. So many people had died in the plot today, and she was feeling a lingering regret.
Seeing this, Lin Fan quietly retreated. Linger hadn't died yet; when she did, Yaoyue would probably explode.
"What's the situation?"
Huang Rong brought the maids of Zilan Xuan in with dishes, just in time to bump into Lin Fan sneaking back to the door of the main hall.
"Lin Fan!"
Just at that moment, Linger finally died in Li Xiaoyao's arms!
Yaoyue emitted a sharp aura, instantly appearing beside Lin Fan and glaring at him viciously.
"Yaoyue, is something the matter?"
Lin Fan looked at Yaoyue awkwardly. This woman was so fierce; was she trying to do something to him?
"Husband, this shadow play of yours is not good; the ending is too tragic. Change it!"
Yaoyue suddenly smiled charmingly, then coquettishly pulled on Lin Fan's arm to act spoiled.
"I can't change it!"
It took Lin Fan a long time to realize that the shadow play Yaoyue mentioned was the home theater, and the refusal slipped out.
"What did you say!"
Upon hearing this, Yaoyue's beautiful eyes widened, and she questioned Lin Fan with an imposing aura; the gentle appearance from just a moment ago vanished completely.
"Yaoyue, this is a story from another world; how could I change it!"
Lin Fan was also frank with Yaoyue. This was something that happened in the Chinese Paladin world, and he couldn't change it.
"Husband, you must have a way. Go and kill that Baiyue and the Water Demon Beast, so that not so many people will die!"
Yaoyue suddenly became gentle again. Lin Fan was curious about where Yaoyue had learned this face-changing technique.
"Yaoyue, you think too highly of me. I can't beat them. I practice martial arts, and they practice immortality; how can you compare them!"
Lin Fan smiled helplessly. Yaoyue really thought highly of him.
"Are they very powerful? I don't think they look like much!"
Yaoyue recalled the images she had seen and asked thoughtfully.
"That's because the screen can't show it. Their immortal techniques can destroy heaven and earth at will. Baiyue and the Water Demon Beast are among the very top in the Chinese Paladin world. I don't even know if I'm their match."
Lin Fan actually wanted to know whether a martial artist could beat an immortal cultivator.
In reality, internal energy, even true essence, is fundamentally very different from spiritual energy. But the gap is mainly reflected in lifespan; spiritual energy can nourish the body and prolong life, while internal energy can cause meridian damage, so martial artists don't live as long as immortal cultivators.
But in terms of destructive power, high-level martial arts might not lose to low-level immortal cultivation.
The world of Chinese Paladin 1 can actually only be considered a low-end Xianxia world, while Chinese Paladin 3 involves the God Realm and can be considered a mid-end Xianxia world.
"My Yaoyue's husband is naturally invincible in the world. I believe they are no match for you!"
Yaoyue looked at Lin Fan with a serious expression, her words full of trust in him.
"Alright, even if I could slay Baiyue and the Water Demon Beast, I'm not from the same world as them!" ===== CHAPTER 501 =====
