Chapter 791
"Elder Shi, do not worry. With Brother Lin Fan here, it is not Baiyue's turn to be arrogant!"
Zhao Linger smiled at Shi Gonghu, who had rushed to her side in anxiety, then comforted him softly.
"You had better worry about yourself. I am afraid you cannot even withstand the aftermath caused by the bad guy fighting that Baiyue!"
Lin Fan had a bad attitude toward Shi Gonghu, so Lin Yueru did not have a good tone toward him either.
"Although the devil Baiyue is devoid of humanity, his cultivation is truly unfathomable. This old minister's death is not worth mentioning, but the Princess is of golden body and must not take risks. It is better to avoid his edge with this old minister!"
Although Shi Gonghu knew that Lin Fan's cultivation was very high, it was still unknown whether he was Baiyue's opponent. It was better not to take risks.
"Big Stone Drum, stop talking nonsense. Do not disturb our meal!"
Anu rolled her eyes at Shi Gonghu and began to eat heartily. Although she did not want to see Lin Fan and Baiyue fight, that was a matter for later. Now, filling her stomach was more important.
"Sigh, since the Princess is unwilling to leave, this old minister will definitely protect her with my life. Let's fight the devil Baiyue!"
Zhao Linger was unwilling to leave, and Shi Gonghu had no choice. He prepared to die before Zhao Linger and prepared to die in the line of duty.
Lin Fan was too lazy to explain to Shi Gonghu. Summer insects cannot talk about ice, and well frogs cannot talk about the sea. How could his strength be understood by him?
When everyone finished eating, Baiyue still had not arrived. Everyone looked at Lin Fan curiously, wanting to know if Baiyue was still coming.
"This guy loves to put on airs. Traveling like an emperor, he clearly has a flying spirit treasure throne, yet he insists on having an honor guard, letting dozens of followers surround him. He is really sick!"
Lin Fan was also a bit helpless. The 'King of Pretending' Baiyue is terrifyingly like this. He is really damn slow.
"Forget it. If the mountain does not come to me, I will go to the mountain!"
Lin Fan left a silver ingot on the table, then waved his hand, and the women flew out with him.
"Not good, the Imperial Son-in-law has taken the initiative to find Baiyue. Chase!"
Shi Gonghu was stunned for a moment before reacting, then hurriedly took Tang Yu and the others to chase after them.
When Lin Fan brought the women to the wilderness outside the city, Baiyue's honor guard had just arrived, and the two sides stared at each other.
"Uncle Baiyue!"
Anu, who had not landed yet, could not help but shout loudly after seeing Baiyue sitting on the floating throne.
"You are here?"
Baiyue smiled and nodded at Anu, then said to Lin Fan.
"You are too slow, so I came!"
Lin Fan and the women landed opposite Baiyue, then looked at Baiyue calmly.
"You are the one who is impatient. You should have gone to Nanzhao step by step, but now you are standing in front of me."
Baiyue stroked the gems on the armrest of the throne. The throne left the top of the honor guard and came to the sky above Lin Fan and the others, looking down at them from a high position.
"Wrong. I never intended to walk to Nanzhao. I was waiting for fate to start arranging the future, and then I would change fate with my own hands."
"You do not believe in fate?"
"I do not believe in fate, and you do not believe in fate either. You do not even believe in everything in this world. You even spent ten years measuring the earth yourself."
"Then do you believe that the earth is round and we live on a sphere?"
Baiyue did not expect Lin Fan to know that he had spent ten years measuring the earth beneath his feet, so Baiyue believed that he must be learned and could understand those discoveries of his.
"I not only know that the earth is round, but I also know that the sphere we live on is called Earth. I know that day and night are because of the Earth's rotation, and the tides are because of the gravitational pull of the sun and the moon. What about you? Do you know what gravity, electromagnetic force, strong nuclear force, and weak nuclear force are?"
Lin Fan smiled. Baiyue was still showing off his little discoveries in front of him. Does he really think my physics and geography knowledge was learned in vain? Today, I will let you, this country bumpkin, know what a dimensionality reduction strike from over a thousand years later is.
"I did not expect you to be so learned, completely different from those ignorant people in the world. I think we can become very good friends."
Baiyue was indeed stumped by Lin Fan's question, but he did not care. He considered himself to know a lot, but he knew even more that he did not know, so he had always maintained the heart of an apprentice, humbly accepting various knowledge.
"No, you could have become a great scientist, but you insisted on being a philosopher, exploring whether love exists, and killed countless people because of your own selfishness. Of course, I do not care about the life and death of those people, but you should not have killed Qing'er. So we are destined to be enemies!"
Lin Fan stepped into the air step by step and began to communicate with Baiyue face to face.
"What a pity. I thought that a learned person like you could understand my grand wish. I did not expect you to be unable to get rid of the worldly love, hatred, and grievances. You really disappoint me!"
Baiyue shook his head with a look of pity, then slowly stood up. The throne beneath him also turned into a black shadow and disappeared into his sleeve.
When drinking with a soulmate, a thousand cups are too few; when words do not agree, half a sentence is too many. Both of them understood that it was impossible for the other to become a friend; they were destined to be enemies.
"Devil Baiyue, you dare to hurt the Princess. This old man must kill you with my own hands!"
Shi Gonghu had not arrived yet, but his voice had already been transmitted. Baiyue's expression changed slightly when he heard it.
"Listen, is this what a father should say to his child?"
"Shut up! You are not my child. I do not have a child who is as insane and evil as you. I really regret not killing you back then!"
Shi Gonghu rushed over and happened to hear this sentence from Baiyue, and immediately retorted with anger.
"You want to kill me?"
"A father should love and protect his child without reservation."
Baiyue's heart had always been trapped on the day Shi Gonghu killed him, unable to let go for a long time.
"I ask myself that I have a clear conscience toward you. I have nothing to say."
A flash of regret and sadness crossed Shi Gonghu's face, but it disappeared in an instant. Then he answered Baiyue coldly.
"Foster Father, do you really, really love me?"
Baiyue shed tears. To this day, his foster father still wanted to kill him instead of guiding him, enlightening him, and pointing the way for him.
"Enough! You two, father and son—one is arrogant, having love in his heart but unable to say it because of face; the other is a 'yandere,' wanting to destroy the world because he cannot get love. You bitches are just pretentious!"
Lin Fan coldly interrupted the conversation between Shi Gonghu and Baiyue.
This is the disadvantage of men raising children. When the father is not good at expressing himself and there is no mother as a mediator, the child is very likely to go to extremes.
However, the things have already been done, and it is too late to be sentimental now. Since Baiyue killed Qing'er, he must die. Who cares if he became a pervert because he lacked love since childhood!
