Chapter 84: The two sides meet

"No matter, take a look at what this is!"

Lin Fan waved his hand, directly utilizing the upgraded portable world to take them inside.

The women only felt the world go dark before their eyes, and then, as if the heavens and earth had shifted, they appeared in this unfamiliar place.

Although there were mountains and water here, and a manor in the distance, possessing picturesque scenery, they had no heart to appreciate it until Lin Fan followed them in, at which point the women finally set their minds at ease.

"Young Master, what place is this? It's so beautiful!" After their hearts settled, the women were startled by how beautiful their surroundings were.

"This is the portable space formed by 'Mount Sumeru contained within a mustard seed.' It is an independent small world. You can stay here while I travel alone; this will speed up the journey significantly. If I encounter danger, I can also bring you in, so I will have no worries behind me!" Lin Fan explained to the women in detail.

"That's too amazing! Brother-in-law, you are just like the immortals in legends, actually possessing a small world. Does this mean we won't have to cultivate Wu Gong anymore? If we encounter danger, we can just hide in this portable space!" Zi said with some excitement.

"Dream on. You cannot slack off on cultivation. Even if it's just for strengthening the body, it's still good. This is the Shaolin Great Restoration Pill; it can increase internal energy by twenty years. Each of you take one and refine it!"

Lin Fan gave Zi a flick to the forehead, then distributed one Great Restoration Pill to each of the women, including Huang Rong, but left Zi out.

"Brother-in-law, why didn't you give me one? I want one too! You can't be biased!"

Zi was somewhat dumbfounded; how could there not be a share for her?

"Didn't you say you didn't want to cultivate Wu Gong? Besides, you have the North Dark Divine Art; I don't think you need this Great Restoration Pill," Lin Fan said playfully.

"Brother-in-law, I do want to cultivate! And my sister and Wang Yuyan sister also cultivate the North Dark Divine Art, so why did you give it to them?"

Upon hearing this, Zi couldn't help but pout, saying with great grievance.

"Alright, here, refine it well!"

Seeing Zi aggrieved, Lin Fan found it somewhat amusing and stopped teasing her, giving her a Great Restoration Pill.

"Thank you, Brother-in-law! Brother-in-law is the best!"

Zi suddenly leaned over and kissed Lin Fan on the cheek like a dragonfly skimming water, then swallowed the Great Restoration Pill and began to sit cross-legged to circulate her energy.

Several charming beauties were currently sitting cross-legged, circulating their energy with solemn expressions; this scene was truly unique and quite spectacular.

However, they would need at least half an hour to refine twenty years of internal energy, so Lin Fan chose to lend them a hand.

With Lin Fan's assistance, the women finished refining one after another, their power greatly increased.

Huang Rong leaped directly from a first-rate martial artist to a peak Xiantian martial artist; Zi also advanced from an early second-rate to a mid-Xiantian martial artist; Zhu, Zhu Abi, and Wang Wang Yuyan broke through from early third-rate to peak first-rate martial artists; while Lv He went a step further, breaking through from mid-third-rate to an early Xiantian martial artist.

Seeing the strength of Huang Rong and the others increase, Lin Fan nodded with satisfaction.

"Young Master Lin, where did you get so many Shaolin Great Restoration Pills? Did you ransack the Shaolin Temple?" Wang Wang Yuyan asked with some curiosity.

Previously, she felt embarrassed accepting things from Lin Fan, but after spending these days together, her feelings for him were constantly changing, and she could now calmly accept his gifts.

"I can only say that these Great Restoration Pills did not come from Shaolin. Alright, it's time for us to go out, have breakfast, and continue our journey. Will you stay in this portable space, or come out with me?"

Lin Fan smiled mysteriously and immediately changed the subject.

"We'll stay here and explore for now; we want to see what the manor looks like!"

Huang Rong blinked her mischievous eyes and led the other women to tour the manor, leaving only Lv He behind.

"Lv He, why didn't you go?" Lin Fan asked curiously.

"I need to drive the carriage for Young Master, and Young Master cannot be without someone by his side; someone needs to accompany you!" Lv He said as if it were a matter of course.

"Very well, then let's go!"

With a thought, Lin Fan and Lv He appeared back in the inn.

Then the two went to the room across the hall and dragged Long Long Xiaoyun out.

"Lin Fan, no one has ever dared to treat me like this! Just you wait. Once my father and the guests of Xingyunzhuang arrive, you will surely die without a burial place."

Long Long Xiaoyun hadn't eaten for a day and a night; his stomach was growling, and his legs were a bit weak.

Added to the fact that he had been tied to the roof of the carriage and jolted for a whole day yesterday, he felt sore all over today, to the point that his eyes were filled with hatred and killing intent as he looked at Lin Fan.

"Don't look at me like that. You are merely a prisoner, and a prisoner should act like one!"

Lin Fan didn't care; glares couldn't kill anyone, and Long Long Xiaoyun was just venting his impotent rage.

"Young Master, shall I gouge out his eyeballs? He actually dared to glare at you!" Lv He said, eager to try.

"Lv He, have you been corrupted by Zi? Why are you always talking about gouging out eyeballs? He is supposed to meet his father, Long Long Xiaoyun, today. If the son is blind when they meet, wouldn't it be less heartwarming?"

"I always feel like Young Master's words have a hidden meaning, but I can't figure it out. Can you speak plainly, Young Master?"

"If I say it all, it won't be interesting. You have to use your eyes to see!"

Lin Fan smiled with an inscrutable expression, then sealed Long Long Xiaoyun's mute acupoint, grabbed him by the back of the neck, and went downstairs.

"Li Li Xunhuan, A Fei, up early!"

Arriving at the lobby downstairs, Lin Fan found Li Li Xunhuan and A Fei sitting at a table, eating pastries and drinking tea, looking quite content.

"Lin Fan, it's not early anymore. I see you have too much affinity with women and too many romantic debts. Remember to show some restraint!"

Li Li Xunhuan was a wanderer among flowers; he could tell at a glance that Lv He's brows had opened and her pretty face held spring, clearly indicating that Lin Fan had already conquered this beautiful maid last night.

"Ah, to die under the peony flower, even as a ghost, one is still romantic. Besides, the Wu Gong I cultivate is extremely Yang and rigid, surpassing even the Nine Yang Divine Art. For me, this is just a piece of cake!"

Just kidding, do you think my Dragon Divine Art was cultivated in vain? Taking on a hundred by myself is no problem at all.

Hearing this, Li Li Xunhuan and A Fei paused; they hadn't expected Lin Fan to have divine arts protecting his body. In that case, there was indeed no need to worry.

"Do you two have any plans for what's next?" A Fei suddenly asked.

"Plans? I intend to find Lin Shiyin and then take her outside the pass!"

Li Li Xunhuan couldn't help but pull out his wine flask again and take a large gulp.

"Looking at how you drink, even if you take Lin Lin Shiyin outside the pass, you won't live for many more years!"

Lin Fan couldn't help but complain. Ever since Li Li Xunhuan handed Lin Lin Shiyin over to Long Long Xiaoyun, he had been addicted to alcohol, using it to drown his sorrows for over a decade, drinking morning, noon, and night, until he had ruined his own body.

With this pent-up frustration and the damage from alcohol, even if Li Li Xunhuan's strength remained unchanged, his body was far worse than before.
