Chapter 747

"Brother Lin Fan, are we going back to the Nanzhao Kingdom? But Linger can't remember anything about Nanzhao!"

On the flying sword, Zhao Linger in Lin Fan's arms suddenly said with some hesitation.

"Why, does Linger have a feeling of 'homesickness'?"

Lin Fan asked softly in Zhao Linger's ear.

"Then let's not fly there, but walk slowly. Maybe as you walk, you won't feel so timid. What do you think?"

Lin Fan pondered for a moment, then proposed a solution.

"Okay, let's travel and enjoy the scenery along the way. This way, Linger can experience more scenery with Brother Lin Fan!"

"Is this your goal? You little rascal!"

Lin Fan shook his head helplessly and then pinched Zhao Linger's soft hand.

"I just feel that going back seems like a heavy thing. Linger is the Princess of Nanzhao, which means heavy responsibilities. Linger doesn't want to bear responsibilities now; I just want to be Brother Lin Fan's wife!"

"Linger, listen to me. There is no such thing as damn responsibilities. Your task is to spend every day happily. When Nanzhao judged your mother, they abandoned the descendant of Nuwa. They are not worth guarding, nor are they worth saving. I am taking you back to settle accounts, not to let you be some princess and bear responsibilities!"

Lin Fan turned Zhao Linger, who was leaning in his arms, around and said to her with a serious expression.

Linger absolutely must not walk down the old path of the Nuwa descendant; he absolutely would not allow it.

It was just a pity that although the template he obtained was strong, it didn't have the ability to bring the dead back to life, so Qing'er couldn't be resurrected for the time being. Otherwise, if Linger could recognize her mother upon returning to Nanzhao, that would be the best thing.

However, Lin Fan believed that as long as he continued to receive diary rewards, he would definitely be able to obtain the ability to bring the dead back to life in the future.

It was also fine that Linger didn't want to return to Nanzhao so quickly; he could also take the opportunity to take in Lin Yueru.

"I understand, Brother Lin Fan. Linger will live only for you in this life. Whatever Brother Lin Fan wants Linger to do, Linger will do; I will absolutely not act on my own!"

Feeling Lin Fan's serious words, Zhao Linger immediately made a promise.

"Mm, then let's go down!"

Lin Fan flew his sword down, and the two decided to walk to the Nanzhao Kingdom.

Along the way, the two chatted, laughed, and played, as if they were on a spring outing.

"Brother Lin Fan, I found that something seems wrong here!"

When the two passed through a forest, it was already approaching dusk. Lin Fan was just about to take Zhao Linger back to the small world when Zhao Linger suddenly frowned and said to Lin Fan.

"Of course it's wrong. With such great resentment and ghost energy, there must be evil spirits causing trouble here."

Reminded by Zhao Linger, Lin Fan discovered that the ghost energy was soaring in the depths of the forest and couldn't help but frown.

"Brother Lin Fan, let's go over and take a look. If there are evil spirits causing trouble, our 'Male-Female Duo Heroes' cannot just sit by and watch!"

"'Male-Female Duo Heroes'?"

"This is the name Linger gave us. What does Brother Lin Fan think?"

"Not bad, as long as we don't turn into 'Male-Female Duo Devils'."

"'Male-Female Duo Devils'? We are upholding justice and slaying demons; how could we turn into 'Male-Female Duo Devils'?"

"Sometimes good intentions can lead to bad things. But let's not worry about that for now; let's go over and see what kind of monster is causing trouble!"

Lin Fan shook his head, thinking of the typical negative example, Guo Furong, who did bad things with good intentions.

"Two, two, please wait a moment. May I ask if that is Lanruo Temple ahead?"

Suddenly, a scholar-dressed person carrying a box called out to Lin Fan and Zhao Linger from behind.

"Lanruo Temple?"

Lin Fan turned his head and looked at the scholar with burning eyes, asking.

"Yes, Lanruo Temple!"

The scholar was somewhat confused by Lin Fan's counter-question, but still repeated it.

"Then are you Ning Caichen?"

"How does the young master know my name?"

"Lanruo Temple has ghosts, monsters, and dried corpses. If you aren't afraid, then come!"

Lin Fan didn't answer Ning Caichen, but just gave him a casual warning, then held Zhao Linger's hand and walked toward the ancient temple in the forest.

"Ghosts, monsters, and dried corpses? This young master is even taking his beautiful wife there; it must be a lie, right? Forget it, I have nowhere else to go; I can only stay here for the night."

After Lin Fan left, Ning Caichen was stunned for a while, but in the end, he gritted his teeth and continued to walk toward Lanruo Temple. After all, he was penniless; if he didn't stay at Lanruo Temple for the night, he would have to sleep on the street.

And as a scholar, he actually didn't really believe in ghosts and monsters; after all, the Master did not speak of strange phenomena, physical force, disorder, and spiritual beings.

"Brother Lin Fan, he followed us!"

"Don't worry about him; let's go kill this evil spirit!"

Lin Fan guessed that Ning Caichen would follow. Ancient scholars were pedantic and stubborn. In the original show, Yan Chixia scared Ning Caichen so much, but he wasn't afraid and still stayed the night, didn't he? How could he give up just because of one sentence from him?

"Brother Lin Fan, can you let Linger do it? Linger wants to show off in front of you!"

Hearing this, Zhao Linger didn't care about Ning Caichen anymore and took the initiative to ask to deal with the monster.

"Okay, then Linger do it!"

Zhao Linger was now at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm. Cooperating with the Green-Sorrow Sword and the Divine Sword Lightning Control Technique, dealing with a tree demon at the same Nascent Soul realm shouldn't be a problem.

Lin Fan's spiritual sense had already investigated the strength of the thousand-year-old tree spirit on the mountain behind Lanruo Temple; it was only at the peak of the Nascent Soul realm. At the same time, he also discovered that there was another person in Lanruo Temple, whose strength was at the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm; it should be that bearded man Yan Chixia.

"Who are you people? Don't you know it's dangerous here? There's even a woman... Oh? I misjudged; you're actually a Nascent Soul cultivator!"

At this moment, Yan Chixia walked out. Seeing Lin Fan, Zhao Linger, and Ning Caichen behind them, he couldn't help but frown and ask, but halfway through, he discovered Zhao Linger's realm.

As for Lin Fan, he had already reached the Indestructible realm, two realms higher than Yan Chixia, and had also integrated the character template, so Yan Chixia couldn't detect Lin Fan's strength at all and just took him for an ordinary person.

"My husband and I are traveling the world, taking slaying demons as our duty. Seeing the soaring ghost and monster energy here, we came to act on behalf of heaven."

Seeing that Lin Fan had no intention of talking, Zhao Linger explained.

"It's one thing for you to have a Nascent Soul realm and travel around slaying demons, but why bring your husband who hasn't cultivated? You... Oh, you're an expert!"

Yan Chixia kindly reminded Zhao Linger, but at this moment, Lin Fan slightly revealed his aura, and Yan Chixia was immediately struck as if by lightning, finally understanding that Lin Fan didn't lack strength, but that his strength was too high for him to detect.

"There is a thousand-year-old tree demon on the mountain behind this Lanruo Temple. It controls a group of female ghosts to help it seduce passersby and absorb their essence, committing sins and harming the area. Although I have always wanted to eliminate it, I have been powerless and can only stay here to deal with it. Since you have such strength, why don't the three of us join forces to remove the tree demon on the mountain behind?"
