Looking at Yun Fan's departing figure, Cang Lie shook his head, sighed, and muttered to himself.
"This old man only said that there is hope, but it is only a glimmer of hope …
"If you want to blame someone, you can only blame the person you fancy. He is so dazzling that even the Holy Son of the Burning Heaven Sect went crazy for him …
"Yun Fan, are you sure you can compete with such a person?"
…
After Yun Fan came out of the Ancestor's cave, he immediately went to the Mending Hall to pay back the 130,000 yuan he borrowed.
When the fat manager of the Mending Hall saw Yun Fan, his fat face turned into a steamed bun. Until Yun Fan left, he bowed three times with every step to the door, as if the one who owed him money wasn't Yun Fan, but himself.
The disciples he met along the way also rushed to greet him. Most of the outer disciples' eyes were filled with admiration, while the inner disciples' eyes were filled with gratitude.
After chatting with the disciples for a while, Yun Fan rushed back to his residence.
He hadn't seen the fatty for nearly half a year. He wondered if the fatty had become so fat that he didn't even look like a pig anymore.
"Fatty, I'm back!"
As soon as Yun Fan landed outside the cave, he shouted loudly.
However, after waiting for a while, there was no response. This made Yun Fan stunned.
According to the fatty's character, he would have come out to welcome him.
Yun Fan directly strode into the abode and discovered that the inside of the abode was actually tidied up neatly.
And on the praying mat in the middle, there was a note.
Yun Fan picked it up and looked at the dry ink on it. It had been a while.
"Yun Fan, a fat grandpa said that I swallowed something. He said that if I could replenish my nutrition, my future would be limitless!
"This fat grandpa thinks highly of me and wants to take me in as his last disciple.
"Yun Fan, I've thought about it and decided to go with the fat grandpa. Although I don't know if what he said is true, I still want to take a gamble!
"Yun Fan, I don't know when you'll be back. Please take care of my family for me!"
"If I can succeed in my cultivation, I can accompany you to see the wider world."
"Your brother, Yan Hu."
Looking at the note left by Yan Hu, Yun Fan understood the meaning even though the words were jumbled.
"Perhaps, this is his good fortune …"
Although Yun Fan was a little disappointed by Yan Hu's departure, he knew that Yan Hu had made this choice because he didn't want to be a subordinate.
"Brother, don't worry. Your family is my family. I'll take good care of them for you!"
Yun Fan muttered to himself.
In this world, he did not have any relatives.
Yan Hu, on the other hand, was his friend and could be considered his only family.
Without Yan Hu's help, he would have starved to death in this world.
Yun Fan naturally had no reason to refuse Yan Hu's request.
Yun Fan packed his luggage and strode toward the mountain gate of the Firespirit Sect.
At this moment, it was already dark. Yun Fan was like a leopard cat, shuttling back and forth between the fire locust trees as he headed down the mountain.
"You're leaving?"
Just as Yun Fan was about to step out of the fire locust forest, a faint voice came from not far away.
Yun Fan turned around and saw that it was actually Su Mengqi who was dressed in red. As the wind blew, it outlined her exquisite figure.
"Master's wife? How did you know I was leaving? "
"The patriarch told me. He said he's sending you to the South Flame Continent to train."
As a legacy disciple, he was no longer restricted to the Firespirit Sect. He could go anywhere in the South Flame Continent to train. That was the sect rule.
"Yes, I'll be back after a year or so. Master's wife, don't miss me!" Yun Fan grinned. Investigating the family's rebellion was a top secret mission. He had made an agreement with the patriarch that no one was to mention it.
Su Mengqi glared at him. She knew that nothing good could come out of his mouth, so she did not say much. She took out an item from her storage ring. It shone brightly in the night.
"Can you do me a favor during your trip to the South Flame Continent?"
"Master's wife, why are you being so polite with me? We're family. Just tell me if you need anything!"
Su Mengqi nodded. Surprisingly, she did not refute him. Instead, she handed the item in her hand to Yun Fan.
Yun Fan took a closer look and saw that it was half a jade pendant.
"This item is called the Heart-Linking Jade. There were originally two pieces. Take it and help me find the person with the other half of the jade pendant."
Yun Fan played with the jade pendant and asked nervously, "What's your relationship with that person? Childhood sweethearts? "
Su Mengqi glared fiercely at Yun Fan and said unhappily, "It's my mother!"
Shortly after, intense grief surged onto her jade face as she spoke tirelessly, "When I was very young, my mother went missing. I searched for three years but still couldn't find her. However, according to the clues, she should be somewhere in the Southern Flame Continent …"
"This jade pendant of mine is a pair with the jade pendant that my mother wears. As long as we're close, the jade pendant will naturally sense it. I hope you can help me find her!"
Yun Fan's heart ached when he saw the sorrowful Su Mengqi. He did not know where his confidence came from, but he patted his chest and said to Su Mengqi, "Don't worry. I'll definitely find your mother before I come back!"
Yun Fan's solemn vow warmed Su Mengqi's heart. She smiled gently and said, "As long as you try your best."
"Then … if, and I'm saying if, I can find our mother, can you let me kiss you?"
The next moment, Yun Fan added, "The kind where lips touch …"
Su Mengqi's cheeks flushed red. She glared fiercely at Yun Fan again. This lecher's words were getting more and more outrageous.
However, when she saw Yun Fan's expectant look, her heart softened for no reason.
"We'll talk about it when you really find her!"
Her calm words were heard, but the beauty disappeared into the night sky.
"There's a chance!"
Yun Fan chuckled. He looked around the Fire Spirit Sect again, then turned and left.
What he didn't see was that Su Mengqi, dressed in red, was standing on a tall Fire Locust Tree. She was looking at his back from afar with a trace of worry in her starry eyes.
"It's not that I don't want to be with you. It's just that the pressure is too great. I'm afraid you can't bear it …"
…
Time flew. In the blink of an eye, ten days had passed.
In the middle of a dense forest, there was a barbecue grill in an open space.
On the grill, a huge piece of spirit beast meat was being roasted, emitting a rich meat fragrance.
Yun Fan sat at the side, holding a piece of roasted meat in his hand and eating heartily.
Beside him, a black bull that was ten feet long was lying there. Its neck was completely caved in. It was obvious that it had been hit by a blunt weapon when it was alive.
If other cultivators saw this, they would be secretly shocked. A third-grade spirit beast that was comparable to a human at the peak of the Origin Realm, especially a three-horned spirit bull that was good at defense, was actually killed by a single blow.
However, for Yun Fan, this was just one of the meat he ate these days.
However, just as Yun Fan was chewing on the piece of meat in his hand, a series of frivolous and messy footsteps broke the silence.
Soon after, Yun Fan saw a long-haired young lady, whose clothes were tattered and somewhat dirty, stumble in front of him.
She wanted to reach out to Yun Fan, but halfway through, she exhausted all her strength and fell in front of Yun Fan with a plop.
