Three days later, Ning Fan sent Bai Su back to Gusu.
After staying there for another month, he returned to Yue Country alone.
He did not know what kind of earth-shattering changes had taken place in Zhongshan Country after he left.
Countless Nascent Soul Realm, Divine Transformation Realm and Void Refinement Realm old monsters traveled to Zhongshan Country to befriend the Green Sword Sect.
As for the reason … Shi Ming was the 'son' of the Evil Cloud Rain Sovereign. Was there any other reason to befriend him?
Looking at the many old monsters who were flattering him, the sect master smiled bitterly.
Any one of them was strong enough to wipe out Zhongshan Country. They were existences that he could only dream of.
This was unexpected …
Originally, he just wanted to find a son-in-law who treated his daughter well. He did not expect to find a son-in-law with such a terrifying background.
Shi Ming stood at the peak of the Green Sword Mountain for seven days.
"Husband, don't be sad. Father and Mother will come back to see you." Feng Qing 'er leaned on Shi Ming and comforted him.
She thought that Shi Ming was missing Ning Fan and Bai Su.
"No, I'm not sad. I'm just feeling emotional … I've been chasing after that person's footsteps and desperately cultivated, hoping to become his arm one day. Now, I realize how difficult it is to catch up to him … "Shi Ming sighed.
"Husband …" Feng Qing 'er did not know how to comfort Shi Ming. She bit her lips and remained silent.
"However, I won't give up. I will follow that person's footsteps and catch up to him step by step. I will become as strong as him. I will be strong enough to protect my loved ones from harm … I won't let him down!"
Shi Ming's eyes were filled with monstrous battle intent. Feng Qing 'er was mesmerized by his gaze.
"Husband can definitely do it. Qing 'er believes in you …"
...
Recently, Su Yan, Gu Shiniang and Fen Chi were busy simplifying the devil marks of the four clans to make them more suitable for low-grade cultivators to inscribe.
They were the devil concubines of the Mist Horn Clan, Ghost Eye Clan and Six-Winged Clan respectively. Naturally, they were proficient in the art of devil marks.
Feng Xueyan was also a devil concubine but she was just a freeloader …
"Sister Yan, master is about to ascend. Don't you want to see him?" In the Devil Marks Palace of Seven Apricot City, Gu Shiniang looked at Su Yan with pity.
"See him? What right do I have to see him …" Su Yan sighed.
"How is it not qualified? Among the three of us, only you are qualified." Fen Chi looked at Su Yan with envy.
Even though they were both devil concubines, Fen Chi and Gu Shiniang knew that Ning Fan had never fallen for them. He was only interested in Su Yan.
Gu Shiniang begged Ning Fan to kill Elder Gui Mu. Ning Fan agreed and brought her away.
As for Fen Chi, Ning Fan had brought her out from the Six-Winged Clan.
From the beginning to the end, Ning Fan had been keeping a distance from the two of them. It was not that he did not treat them well. It was just that he did not have any feelings for them.
"I … I'm not qualified …" Su Yan's eyes were filled with self-hurt.
There were too many outstanding women around Ning Fan, but she was just the inconspicuous one.
In the Mist Horn Clan, she was saved by Ning Fan but she was unable to repay him.
If she could not return the favor, she would not be able to help him at all when he is facing a Void Fragmentation Realm expert.
"What do you mean by not qualified enough?" Ning Fan walked into the Devil Runes Palace with a faint smile. The three ladies were so frightened that they immediately stood up and greeted him respectfully.
"There's no need to be so distant. You guys continue with your work. I'll just watch from the side. I won't disturb you."
"Yes."
The three girls obeyed and sat down again. They surrounded the jade table and repeatedly drew profound Devil Patterns on the paper.
Ning Fan looked at him quietly and didn't disturb him.
He hadn't inscribed all four races' demonic marks in the past, and he wouldn't do so in the future.
His mageweath was the Mara mageweath, so he did not need these low-level mageweaths.
However, Ning Fan could not help but admit that the three of them indeed had a high level of attainment in the study of devil marks.
After some modifications, even a Vein Opening cultivator could carve a devil mark on their body to increase their physical strength.
Among the three girls, Su Yan's attainment in Demon Crests was the highest.
She was once the clan leader of the Mist Horn Clan, so her experience and knowledge were naturally not something the other two ladies could compare to.
She was the one who had contributed the most to improving the mageweath.
Gu Shiniang and Fen Chi were frowning. They did not have the slightest clue as to how to improve the devil marks.
Su Yan, on the other hand, had a clear train of thought. She held the brush in her hand and improved the Demon Crests bit by bit.
However, the mental toll was too great. Her face couldn't help but turn pale, and her forehead was covered in sweat.
She was completely focused on designing the mageweath when her body suddenly tensed up.
Ning Fan was holding a handkerchief and was wiping the sweat off her forehead.
"Don't … Don't do this …" Su Yan was a little flustered.
"Did I disturb you?" Ning Fan asked with a smile.
"No …"
"Mm. Then you can continue with your work. I won't disturb you."
Su Yan was speechless. Her mind had been completely messed up by Ning Fan. She could no longer concentrate on her work!
Treat him like a tree … Treat him like a tree … Treat him like a tree …
Su Yan chanted an incantation in her mind. Gradually, she cast Ning Fan to the back of her mind and started to design the devil marks again.
Ning Fan's face was filled with black lines. He had the Mind Reading Technique. How could he not know what Su Yan was thinking at the moment?
She treated him like a tree …
Alright. A tree it is.
Just as Su Yan was concentrating fully, Ning Fan quietly held her hand and channeled his magic power into her body.
Su Yan's pale face gradually regained its normal color. Then, it turned red.
"Can … Can you leave for a while …?" Su Yan said helplessly.
"Did I disturb you?" Ning Fan asked with a smile.
"No …"
"Oh. Then you can continue with your work. Don't mind me. After all, I'm a tree. "
Su Yan's face turned even redder. He had actually seen through her thoughts …
Feeling the magic power that Ning Fan channeled into her body, Su Yan felt sweet inside.
Forget it. I'll just let him continue to annoy me here.
There's nothing bad about it …
The side of her face which was originally hurting herself now had a charming smile on it.
Even though she was disturbed, Su Yan felt that her thoughts had become clearer. Before the sky turned dark, she finally completed the initial improvement of the devil marks.
As for Ning Fan, he held her hand for the entire day.
Su Yan gently withdrew her hand. She got up and stretched her body tiredly. Then, she performed the incantation gesture. Gu Shiniang and Fen Chi had already left.
The moonlight in the Devil Marks Palace was dim. There were only the two of them …
"Your hand is very cold. I think you're feeling weak because you've been too busy recently. You don't have to rush to improve the devil marks. This matter will consume too much energy. You can take your time. "Ning Fan looked at Su Yan with concern. His gaze made Su Yan shy away a little.
"Don't you have anything to say to me?" Ning Fan asked with a smile.
"What can I say …?" Su Yan lowered her head without saying a word, like a resentful dragon lady.
Her fine black hair was like a waterfall and there were two exquisite jade-colored horns on her head. She was rather adorable.
"Do you want to return to the Mist Horn Clan? If you're willing, I can remove the suppression on the clan …" Before Ning Fan could finish his words, he met Su Yan's sad eyes.
"You want to chase me away, don't you? You clearly know that the Mist Horn Clan is no longer my home … "
"I'm sorry. I saw that you're feeling down and thought that you're homesick. If you're unwilling to leave, this Yue Country will be your home. No one will chase you away."
Ning Fan smiled apologetically. He reached out his hand and played with the jade-colored horns on Su Yan's head. Su Yan's face turned red but she did not resist.
"If I die in battle in the Eastern Heaven one day …" Ning Fan said indifferently.
"You can't die!" Su Yan suddenly said nervously.
"I haven't finished my words. Of course, I won't die. What I'm saying is that if I die in battle in the Eastern Heaven one day, I wonder who else will be lucky enough to play with your little horns. Just to touch them often, I will also come back alive. "
Ning Fan was obviously flirting with Su Yan. It was very obvious!
Su Yan looked at Ning Fan in embarrassment. What did I say?! How could I have the right to say those words?! Ning Fan actually tempted me to say those words!
"Rest early. This bottle of pills is called Formation Nourishing Pill. It has the effect of restoring your heart force. You often exhaust your heart force. It's good for your body to take one every now and then."
Ning Fan passed Su Yan a pill bottle and stroked her cheek gently. Then, he turned around and walked out of the Devil Runes Palace.
Su Yan's face instantly turned red. Looking at Ning Fan's back as he left, her eyes were blurred and she could not speak for a long time …
When she recalled that year when Ning Fan hugged her to escape from the pursuit of the group of devils in the Mist Horn Broken World, she suddenly became absent-minded.
The pill bottle in her hand seemed to have become heavier. She carefully put it away as if she was keeping the most precious thing in her possession.
"Remember to go home …" She muttered to herself in a very soft voice.
She only dared to speak her mind after Ning Fan had gone far away.
"Alright." Ning Fan's reply was sent back to the Devil Runes Palace.
Su Yan's heart skipped a beat. She pursed her lips and ran back to her room.
However, her face was burning hot …
I didn't expect that the dignified clan leader of the Mist Horn Clan would also have such a girlish side … Interesting …
Ning Fan returned to his room with a smile and saw a small black sable lying on his bed.
"Little Black, did you miss me?"
Ning Fan held the small black sable in his arms passionately and stroked its soft body with his palm.
The small sable immediately revealed a human-like expression of shame and anger. Her body flashed and she turned into a naked woman.
"Pervert!" Mei Chen glared at Ning Fan with shame and anger.
Even though she had turned back into her human form, Ning Fan's hand was still grabbing her soft chest.
Since that was the case, she might as well not turn back into her human form. At least, she would not be taken advantage of!
"Little Black, is there anything you need from me?"
"Tsk. Why would I look for a stinky man like you?" Mei Chen struggled free from Ning Fan's embrace. She raised her hand and clothes appeared on her body.
"You need a Dao crystal to break through?" Ning Fan could tell that Mei Chen's cultivation base was still a distance away from breaking through to the Fourth Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm.
However, with the help of a large number of dao gems, breaking through to the fourth level wouldn't be difficult.
Mei Chen's face turned red. She really was here to borrow the Dao crystal, but she really couldn't say anything about borrowing the Dao crystal.
She needed about four million dao crystals to break through to the Fourth Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm.
Although Seven Apricot City still had 70 million dao crystals, 4 million was not a small number. She was too embarrassed to take it.
Even though Ning Fan had already given the order that Mei Chen could directly use the Dao Crystal if she needed it, Ning Fan had already given her the order.
"Little Black, don't treat me like an outsider."
With a flick of his sleeve, Mei Chen lost her balance and fell into his arms.
Ning Fan flicked his finger and Mei Chen exited her human form, transforming back into her sable form.
While caressing the small sable's smooth fur, Ning Fan's mouth curved into a faint smile while the small sable was ashamed and resentful.
Where was Ning Fan's hand randomly touching?
Although she had turned into a ferret, ferrets still had their principles and chastity!
"As a demon pet, you have the obligation to sleep with your master." Ning Fan said righteously.
"Roar!" The small sable protested strongly.
"Go to sleep."
Ning Fan flicked his sleeve and extinguished the candlelight in the room.
He really hugged the small sable and slept for the whole night. He did not do anything bad.
For the first time, Mei Chen doubted her own charm. Could it be that her beauty in her human form was not as good as her appearance in the sable form?
Otherwise, why would Ning Fan hug her in her sable form instead of her human form?
Nestling in Ning Fan's arms, the small sable gradually stopped thinking about this problem. Sniffing Ning Fan's scent, she unexpectedly fell into a deep sleep.
When Ning Fan woke up the next morning, the small sable was nowhere to be found.
After staying silent for a while, Ning Fan changed his clothes and went to look for other women.
It was hard to predict when he would return to the Eastern Heaven this time. After all, he had to give everyone an explanation.
He took out the jade slip of the Sword Word Technique from his storage pouch and smiled. Then, his figure flashed and disappeared from the room.
In the Sword Palace of Seven Apricot City.
Within a stone chamber in the Sword Hall, a pink-clothed woman sat cross-legged on the ground while ceaselessly forming sword seals with a frown on her beautiful brows.
Her cultivation base was at the First Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm. Breaking through to the Second Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm was just a matter of time.
It wasn't that his cultivation was lacking, nor was it that his comprehension of the sword was lacking. It was that his heart was in a mess.
Another attempt to break through the bottleneck ended in failure.
Teng Xian Rou opened her eyes and wiped her sweat. Her eyes were filled with a sigh.
"Is he going to ascend …?"
"He once said that he would return my freedom after 500 years. I was skeptical at first, but now I see … He doesn't need me by his side for 500 years at all. At that time, he had yet to attain the Void Fragmentation Realm. Thus, he needed my strength. With his current cultivation base, why would he need a helper at the First Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm? I am already useless to him. "
"That year, I was ordered by the Vine Sovereign to hunt him down … Although he didn't say anything, he must have hated me in his heart."
Teng Xian Rou muttered to herself. Suddenly, a young man in white appeared in front of her, scaring her.
"You … Why are you here?"
"Why … why can't I come?"
Ning Fan smiled and sat beside Teng Xian Rou.
Teng Xian Rou knitted her brows and moved her butt to the side.
Ning Fan followed her without hesitation.
"What are you doing here?" Teng Xian Rou was speechless. Since she could not avoid Ning Fan, she stopped hiding and allowed him to stay close to her.
"Do you still remember the Sword Word Technique?" Ning Fan asked with a smile.
His question made Teng Xian Rou feel guilty and annoyed at the same time.
The Sword Word Technique was the sword technique that she mistakenly thought Ning Fan used when they first fought.
She felt guilty because she remembered the past when she hunted Ning Fan down.
She felt annoyed because she found out later that Ning Fan did not know any Sword Word Technique at all.
Moreover, she admired Ning Fan a lot because of that!
However, Ning Fan did not reveal the truth and accepted her admiration with a clear conscience.
"There is no such thing as the Sword Word Technique in this world …" Teng Xian Rou shook her head and said.
"Let's make a bet. If I really know the Sword Word Technique, you will stay in Yue Country forever. If I don't, I will return your freedom and you can leave the Rain World. "
As soon as he finished speaking, Ning Fan flicked his sleeve and directly removed the Fu Li Demon Restriction in Teng Xian Rou's Sea of Consciousness!
Freedom! He actually really gave her freedom back!
Without the joy of regaining her freedom, Teng Xian Rou actually felt a little bitter inside.
She clearly knew that he did not know the Sword Word Technique.
The reason why he made this bet was probably just to find an excuse to chase her away.
Indeed, she, Teng Xian Rou, was nothing when she no longer had any value to him.
"Do you want to bet?" Ning Fan asked with a smile.
"Alright, let's bet! Alright, the bet is over! Since you don't know the Sword Word Technique, can I leave now?! "
Leave? Where do I want to go?
If he chased me out of the Rain World, where else could I go?
Back to the Tree World? Is that her home?
Just as Teng Xian Rou wanted to stand up, Ning Fan pulled her back and made her sit back down.
"Where do you want to go? If you lose, you must stay in the Rain World for the rest of your life. Look, this is the Sword Word Technique. Slash! "
Ning Fan's eyes suddenly turned sharp. As soon as he uttered a word, the sound wave turned into sword light and shattered all four sword-testing stones in the stone chamber!
"You lost." Ning Fan said with a smile.
"I … lost? W-What do you mean? You want me to stay in the Rain World forever? "
Teng Xian Rou's heart skipped a beat as she stared at Ning Fan in disbelief.
What does he mean? What exactly does he mean …
"Take it and study it well. Don't you like the Sword Word Technique very much? Improve your cultivation base and be my cauldron in the future. "
Ning Fan passed the jade slip in his sleeve to Teng Xianrou and casually ruffled her black hair. Then, he stood up and left with a smile on his face.
"He … didn't chase me away …" Teng Xian Rou held the jade slip in her hand and stood there in a daze.
Suddenly, she recalled the latter half of Ning Fan's words and her face was filled with shame and anger.
Cauldron … He asked her to cultivate painstakingly just to be his cauldron? Dream on!
Although they had dual cultivated their Sea of Consciousness before, it was only because she was forced to do so. Her body was still pure.
Probably …
However, he actually removed the restriction on her.
Was it because of trust …?
Teng Xian Rou let out a faint sigh. From the beginning to the end, she couldn't understand Ning Fan at all.
"What exactly is it that you are pursuing …?" She muttered to herself.
...
Ning Fan went to Dark Sparrow's Grave to visit Qing Dai and left her some puppets for her to study.
After leaving the Dark Sparrow's Grave, he naturally stayed in Sinister Sparrow Sect for a short while.
He casually taught Xue Qing some pill refinement insights, just like what he taught Yang Gu on Pill Island.
Gui Qiaozi and Old Ancestor Huo Yun were drinking and discussing the Dao. Ning Fan's arrival just happened to bring the three of them together.
Gui Qiaozi was already a Late Nascent Soul Realm expert while Old Ancestor Huo Yun was a Late Nascent Soul Realm expert. As for Ning Fan, he was a Void Fragmentation Realm expert.
None of them were ordinary people. Thus, they naturally wouldn't care about the difference in cultivation base.
Speaking of which, Gui Qiaozi could be considered as Ning Fan's father-in-law and a friend of the Old Devil.
In terms of seniority, Ning Fan was actually one generation lower than Gui Qiaozi.
After discussing the Dao, it was already late at night. Ning Fan left some pills and Dao Fruits for the two of them and leisurely went to other places in Sinister Sparrow Sect.
Speaking of which, he was still Revered Ning of Sinister Sparrow Sect.
The place he was going to was naturally the Bright Moon Lake. He knew that Lan Mei and Bai Lu would be waiting for him there.
The night breeze blew gently. At the side of the lake, two peerless beauties, one in blue and the other in pink, were looking at the lake with faint melancholy.
They had already received the news that Ning Fan was going to ascend to the immortal realm. After this separation, they didn't know when they would be able to meet again …
Memories flashed before their eyes. That year, there was a young man who entered Sinister Sparrow Sect …
While their thoughts were wandering, Lan Mei suddenly let out a soft cry while Bai Lu harrumphed angrily.
At the next moment, both of them fell into a warm embrace.
"Do you want to say goodbye?" Ning Fan asked Lan Mei.
"Mm …" Lan Mei answered in a melancholic tone.
"Do you want to take revenge?" Ning Fan asked Bai Lu.
"Of course! My bewitching technique is getting stronger and stronger. You might not be able to defeat me … Ah! "
Before Bai Lu finished her sentence, the three of them had already disappeared from the side of the Bright Moon Lake.
No one knew where they went. It seemed like they went to Lan Mei's boudoir.
As for what they did, no one knew.
No one knows … Probably … (To be continued.)
