142: Chapter 142 is good.

"Mm…"

Lin Bufan felt his head splitting with pain. In his dizzy state, he subconsciously shifted slightly, only to find that his head seemed to be resting on a piece of warm, soft jade.

Following the faint fragrance lingering at the tip of his nose, he slowly opened his eyes. As his vision gradually focused from a blur, what came into view was unexpectedly a pair of plump and alluring curves.

"Gulp~"

A clear sound of swallowing echoed within the spacious and silent immortal cave, sounding exceptionally distinct.

You happened to open your eyes at this moment, a trace of playfulness flashing across the depths of your pupils as your gaze landed on his already blushing ear tips.

"Junior Brother~ What are you looking at?"

You reached out to tidy the stray locks on his forehead, your icy fingertips sliding down along his auricle and grazing that patch of burning earlobe as if nothing were there.

Lin Bufan's entire body suddenly stiffened. He panicked and averted his gaze, starting to stutter as he changed the subject:

"Senior Sister, where are we now?"

"Hmph!"

You let out a cold hum, moved him away from your lap, and turned your back to him without looking at him anymore.

"???"

Lin Bufan was utterly baffled. Did he do something wrong again?

Surely not?

Yet Senior Sister seemed angry.

That meant he must have done something wrong!

After 0.3 seconds of consideration, Lin Bufan decisively concluded that he was in the wrong. He hurried over to your side in two or three steps, preparing to flash an ingratiating, harmless smile, but his expression froze the moment he made contact with your reddened eyes.

He hurriedly reached out to wipe away the tear stains at the corner of your eye, but was avoided as you turned your head away.

"Senior Sister…"

Lin Bufan's voice was tainted with a hint of undisguised panic. In his heart, Senior Sister was always such a gentle and vibrant figure; why would she reveal such an expression?

He squatted in front of you, scratching his ears and cheeks in anxiety for a moment. His hands hovered in mid-air, wanting to touch you yet not daring to, completely clueless about what to do.

"Wuwuwu~"

Seeing that the atmosphere had been built up enough, you immediately turned around and threw yourself into his arms.

"Junior Brother, you clearly have injuries yourself, why did you come to save me!"

This was what the Ring Old Man had told you. Earlier, just after they escaped the pursuit of Chandu Palace, Lin Bufan had suffered quite heavy injuries, but upon sensing your aura, he rushed over recklessly.

Thinking about it, this was completely wrong. The son of luck actually wanted to reverse-conquer? He must be pulled back onto the right track!

The astonishment on Lin Bufan's face paused slightly, and then he embraced the woman in his arms with a gentle gaze.

"Senior Sister, straying into that underground space back then was entirely my fault alone."

He lowered his head, his voice soft yet full of self-reproach.

"I have been searching for your whereabouts for the past three years. Fortunately, you didn't suffer any major mishaps, otherwise Junior Brother would for the rest of his life… Mhm?"

Looking at the emotional mist drifting around him, you raised your head and took the initiative to kiss him, blocking his subsequent words.

"Teacher! Teacher!"

"Understood."

Lin Bufan's Ring Old Man has disconnected…

"Senior Sister, I want to see golden hair…"

"Good."

"Hiss~ Senior Sister, I am injured…"

"Lie down properly."

[…]

Seven days later, Lin Bufan was beaming with joy, his brows and eyes filled with undisguised smugness. He naturally put his arm around your waist and walked out of the cave side by side with you.

You leaned against his side smoothly, your brows and eyes curving with a hint of a young maiden's dependent posture.

After all, in your system space, there were solidly two more top-tier fire-attribute spell techniques of the Foundation Establishment Stage…

"Junior Brother, where are we going next?"

"Mm…"

Hearing this, Lin Bufan rubbed his chin in thought for a moment before speaking with a somewhat guilty conscience:

"Senior Sister, I have thoroughly offended Chandu Palace, and they are hunting me down everywhere right now. Therefore, we cannot take the teleportation arrays of the major main cities; we can only enter a main city after leaving the eastern region."

"Is Chandu Palace very strong?"

You leaned against his shoulder, gently rubbing your cheek against his lapel to signal that it did not matter.

"Very strong!"

Hearing this, Lin Bufan nodded with a serious expression.

"The overall forces of Chanming Prefecture are much weaker compared to Xuanhuang Prefecture. After all, there are neither super sects nor imperial dynasties garrisoned here, but their main territories are controlled by the Three Palaces and Four Clans."

"Chandu Palace is one of them?"

You smoothly took over the conversation.

"Yes, and because there is no suppression from super sects, these Three Palaces and Four Clans are much stronger than ordinary first-tier sects."

Lin Bufan scratched his head in quite a bit of distress.

Back then, when he tumbled out of the spatial turbulence, he was rescued by a female cultivator from a small sect. However, this female cultivator was fancied by an outer disciple of Chandu Palace during a herb-gathering trip outside.

Given Lin Bufan's personality, of course he could not endure it, and then the matryoshka doll escalation began.

Then it went: outer disciple → inner disciple → outer elder → personal disciple… In the end, the commotion grew larger and larger, and he accidentally killed a second-generation cultivator with an immensely huge background…

Classic! Too classic!

You secretly sighed, feeling quite regretful in your heart that you could not follow the son of luck to slaughter all directions, missing out on how many fortuitous encounters!

Look! This Lin Bufan just broke through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, and within three years, he had once again broken into the Foundation Establishment Mid-Stage!

He really is not playing well; he is purely cheating.

As if suddenly remembering something, your slender eyes narrowed slightly.

Murderous intent!

Lin Bufan looked left and right, finally lowering his head to meet your half-smiling gaze, feeling inexplicably guilty.

"Gulp! Se… Senior Sister, what is wrong?"

"Where is that female cultivator who saved you?"

Your fingertips gently brushed across his chest. Clearly the movement was gentle, yet Lin Bufan inexplicably felt a chill creep up his spine, and his throat involuntarily rolled.

Even the Ring Old Man, who had just been unsealed and was leisurely watching the show, sensed something amiss and shook his head with lingering fear, sighing:

"Female cultivators are simply too terrifying sometimes; it just shows how wise a choice it was back then for this old man to reject those proud daughters of heaven and choose to remain single!"

[…]

Because of the existence of the stumbling block that is Chandu Palace, you had no choice but to cut straight through a relatively dangerous yet sparsely populated dense forest.

Fortunately, with the knowledgeable Saint Xuanwei guiding from the side, you did not encounter any fatal crises along the way.

On a night three months later, the two of you were cuddling by a lake, enjoying a rare leisurely time.

After all, with the supervision of the Ring Old Man during this period, the two of you had not slacked off at all. The journey of a full year had already passed the halfway mark in just three months.

"Senior Sister, look, it is getting late. Should we not rest?"

Feeling the mischievous large hand at your waist, you gave Lin Bufan an exasperated roll of the eyes, but did not intend to refuse either.

After all, over the past three months, this kid had provided you with quite a bit of emotional mist; giving him a little sweetness was only right.

Just as your lips were about to touch, an angry shout resounded through the entire night sky.

"Stop!"

You + Lin Bufan: ??????
