Chapter 135: An Old Friend
🕑 Added 2023-11-15 15:36:41 +0000 UTC"Xiaomei is young; I hope Immortal Master will spare her life!" Su Changyu reacted quickly, quickly kowtowing to Li Fan in apology.
Xiao Heng also immediately realized, "Please, Immortal Master, spare Xiaomei's life."
Li Fan didn't answer; he just looked with interest at Su Xiaomei, who was caught by the Insect Binding Technique.
Helpless and unable to move, Su Xiaomei's small face turned bright red.
Then, a force surged from her body. Li Fan sensed that, in an instant, Su Xiaomei's strength doubled.
"Innate talent?" Li Fan's eyes flashed with interest, but he didn't release the restraint.
He wanted to see where Su Xiaomei's limits were.
Feeling the opponent's gaze wandering around her, Su Xiaomei was unable to resist.
Su Xiaomei, who had never suffered such humiliation from childhood to adulthood, felt an endless rage in her heart.
A touch of crimson appeared in her eyes, like burning flames flickering.
Her body became scorching hot, and the temperature of the surrounding air rose accordingly.
Su Xiaomei's strength doubled again.
However, it was useless!
The anger still lingered in her heart.
The redness in her eyes gradually spread throughout her body, dyeing her black hair with a strange red color.
A faint wisp of white smoke emanated from various parts of her body.
Su Xiaomei's strength doubled again!
Xiao Heng, seeing this scene, was so anxious that tears almost came out, repeatedly kowtowing.
Su Changyu remained calm, but the bloodstains on his forehead revealed his true feelings at the moment.
"Is the strength now eight times the original? Innate talent, indeed unreasonably strong." Li Fan nodded to himself.
Although Li Fan felt that Su Xiaomei's strength could continue to expand, it would cause hidden injuries to her body.
Li Fan was just testing, there was no need to go this far.
So, the Azure Flame Illusionary Spirit appeared in his sea of consciousness. Li Fan reached out his right hand, gently pressing on Su Xiaomei's head.
A chilling force was infused into her.
Su Xiaomei's body temperature gradually dropped, and the red color in her pupils gradually disappeared.
Her fierce expression also gradually calmed down.
The Insect Binding Technique lost its effect, and Su Xiaomei fell from the sky.
In an instant, she stabilized her figure and rushed towards Li Fan.
She grabbed Li Fan's thigh, holding on tightly and refusing to let go. "Master! You finally came!"
"Master..." Li Fan chuckled. This address was extremely rare in the current cultivation world.
Almost extinct.
Without responding to her, Li Fan simply took Su Xiaomei off his leg and placed her on the side to carefully examine her.
Perhaps due to her special physique, although Su Xiaomei should be in her teens now, her height and size were only that of an ordinary six or seven-year-old child.
At this moment, she widened her eyes, carefully examining Li Fan, looking incredibly cute.
Li Fan smiled, then shifted his gaze to Su Changyu and Xiao Heng.
Seeing that Su Xiaomei was now out of danger, they both sighed in relief.
However, they still didn't dare to get up, kneeling and bowing to the ground.
Ten years ago, when Li Fan was about to leave, he gave Xiao Heng the "Cleansing Heart Mantra" and the usage method for the accompanying medicine.
Without special instructions, it could not be passed on casually.
From the remaining Immortal-Mortal Miasma in Su Changyu's body, it seemed that he understood the importance of not spreading it.
He didn't tell others.
However...
What's up with this kid? Feeling Xiao Heng's condition, Li Fan's face darkened.
There were signs of the Immortal-Mortal Miasma being expelled, but it was only a small part.
No different from before.
You spent only a month in your past life to cleanse yourself of the miasma, right? It's been almost ten years now! You've been too negligent!
Li Fan said coldly to Xiao Heng, "When traveling from Dali to the cultivation realm, it takes about ten days. If you haven't successfully expelled the miasma by the time we reach the cultivation realm, I'll throw you into the sea to feed the fish. Understand?"
Hearing this, Xiao Heng's face turned pale, and he trembled all over.
Su Changyu looked at him helplessly and shook his head inwardly.
Su Xiaomei looked gleeful, smiling mischievously at Xiao Heng.
Originally, Li Fan planned to quietly leave with these three.
But upon second thought, it had been ten years, and the materials collected by Dali were probably ready.
He Zhenghao unexpectedly met his demise, and no one had taken over this smuggling route.
Since he had already come here once, he couldn't leave empty-handed.
After all, 2000 contribution points were not a small amount.
Every bit helps.
With a decision in mind, he manipulated the spiritual energy in his body and struck the bell under the four watchtowers.
Suddenly, the sound of the bell spread throughout the Dali capital, causing quite a stir.
Li Fan, with Su Xiaomei and the others, came to the square where they had been before, waiting for the arrival of the Emperor of Dali.
After a small half-day, the emperor and his officials all came before Li Fan.
They looked at Su Xiaomei and the others behind Li Fan with various expressions.
But none dared to be negligent; they all knelt down.
"We greet Immortal Master!"
Li Fan directly said, "For this transaction, I will personally transport the people you have selected. Have you prepared your supplies?"
Although the Emperor of Dali was hesitant, the identity of the Immortal Master in front of him was undoubtedly genuine.
So, he nodded repeatedly.
Li Fan went to the imperial treasury, received the supplies, and turned back, instructing, "Tomorrow morning, I'll still be waiting for you here in the square. Don't be late."
The Emperor of Dali agreed and quickly left to let his subjects make preparations.
The next morning, many people gathered in the square.
Most of them were young faces, and among them, Li Fan recognized some.
It was the group of people he met when he first entered the cultivation world in his previous life.
After releasing the Tai Yan Boat and placing it on the square, Li Fan spoke to these people, "The cultivation world may not be as beautiful as you imagine - it is full of dangers."
"Going there, you might face a fate worse than death."
"I'll give you one last chance. If you don't want to go, you can choose to give up. I will take care of your families; you won't be put in a difficult situation."
Li Fan finished speaking and coldly watched how they would choose.
These young people didn't expect this twist. They looked at each other, unsure of what to do.
At this moment, a sharp voice rang out on the square, "Please rest assured, Immortal Master. Although the path of immortality is treacherous, my determination to seek immortality is unwavering for a hundred lifetimes!"
After hearing these words, Li Fan's expression became strange. Following the sound, he saw a familiar face from his previous life—the fat guy who had threatened and blackmailed him, and whom he had casually killed.
Encouraged by his words, quite a few people struggled and hesitated for a while before deciding to venture into the cultivation world.
But there were still some who chose to give up.
"Words may not persuade the stubborn. You've made your choice. When you die miserably in the future, don't blame anyone else."
Watching these young people, their faces showing excitement and nervousness, boarding the Tai Yan Boat one by one, Li Fan silently pondered in his heart.
