109: The woman showed up
There are three days left until the Opening Class Battle!
The Imperial Capital is already packed, overflowing with people!
The fervent atmosphere is surging, with travelers from all over the world having already bought their tickets in advance, waiting excitedly!
The entire Imperial Capital has ten Heaven and Earth Arenas, each with a battlefield spanning ten thousand meters in radius!
The number of spectators it can accommodate reaches an astonishing three hundred thousand!
In this world, people have excellent eyesight, so even from a distance, they can clearly see everything on the battlefield!
Ten arenas mean three million tickets, with prices varying from front to back rows; on average, a single ticket costs over five hundred thousand federal currency!
There are about fifty matches a day…
Xiao Fan, flying, took out the calculator built into his phone and began calculating how much money the tickets would earn in a day!
7500000000000!
Xiao Fan narrowed his eyes as one price unit after another flashed by.
Finally.
"Holy crap! 7.5 trillion?"
"In one day?"
"What the heck!?"
Xiao Fan's pupils trembled violently; he wished he was the organizer of this event. Isn't this practically robbing a bank?
Moreover, there are various advertising fees! Food sold at the venue! He heard the organizer can even open a betting market…
"Damn it, this is too outrageous, isn't it?" Xiao Fan truly couldn't help but curse.
This is more than just an astronomical figure!
Lin Xianhuo covered her mouth and chuckled softly, saying, "Pay attention to the organizer's name."
Xiao Fan focused his gaze, his pupils suddenly contracting. He exclaimed, "Holy crap? Bais Group?"
"Boss Bai is going to heaven!"
Lin Xianhuo shook her head and said, "That's all irrelevant. In this world, there are many things that federal currency can't buy."
"That's true," Xiao Fan nodded.
His first time flying was in a first-class cabin—it was truly exhilarating!
He looked down at the ground, and the full view of the Imperial Capital was before his eyes. It was at least a hundred times larger than Green Leaf City, and from above, it was a hexagon!
Furthermore, each side had a different color. Lin Xianhuo said this represented different elements, and people skilled in a particular element lived in that area!
Skyscrapers over three hundred meters tall were everywhere here, but Xiao Fan didn't notice that Ying Zheng was quietly watching him from the tallest building.
"Is that Xiao Fan?" Ying Zheng's golden pupils swept over the plane soaring across the blue sky. He chuckled to himself, "Why does he look so foolish?"
"Hiccup!" Xiao Fan, on the plane, sneezed and pouted, saying, "Is someone talking bad about me?"
Lin Xianhuo chuckled, picked up her phone, and said, "Look, right now, people aren't talking bad about you, they're talking bad about me."
Xiao Fan raised an eyebrow, took the phone, and saw that some of Lin Xianhuo's friends in the Imperial Capital were telling her about the current situation.
"Is your dad crazy? He's showing off how amazing your husband is everywhere! My dad is so angry he's practically spitting blood, and he keeps looking at me every day, hoping I'll go after your husband!"
"Immortal Fire, be careful when you come back. You might be targeted by people in the circle. They're all jealous that you have a husband who fights so hard for you!"
"Sister Lin, my dad even wishes I were a girl…"
Xiao Fan smiled. He knew that Lin Xianhuo now wouldn't be easily affected by others' words!
He looked up and saw that she really seemed to be affected, but it wasn't negative emotion; it was deep happiness and pride.
Lin Xianhuo held Xiao Fan's hand tightly, her eyes filled with deep love.
Half a year ago, she ran away from home like an idiot, probably mocked by everyone, right?
Half a year later, I'm back, with my beloved and my transformation, truly becoming that Prodigy with the potential to stand at the center of the world! Envied by everyone!
And all of this is thanks to Xiao Fan!
Thinking about it now, Xiao Fan's pretense of innocence and naiveté at the foot of Alien Beast Mountain was truly infuriating!
With innocent, pure eyes, he'd ask, "Sister, your motorcycle is so cool, can you give it to me?" one after another.
The result was that he set his sights on my Storage Ring!
And then?
He even managed to ensnare me, this person, in his hands!
But so what?
There's nothing happier in the world than this!
Suddenly, Lin Xianhuo's phone screen flashed, and the ringtone sounded. An unknown number called.
She frowned slightly, then answered, "Hello, who is this?"
"It's me! Is Brother Xiao Fan with you? Don't tell him I called you!"
"Please don't let him hear my call with Sister, okay?"
Ding Dong?
Lin Xianhuo raised an eyebrow, stood up, told Xiao Fan she needed to take a call, and walked to a corner.
"What's wrong, Ding Dong?"
"Do you have something to tell me?"
On the other end of the phone, the cute little loli with blue hair frowned tightly, her lips trembling slightly: "I… I…"
"What's wrong? Speak up, we'll all help you!" Lin Xianhuo said softly with concern.
"I… I want to help Brother Xiao Fan."
"Ah… and then?" Lin Xianhuo was a bit confused. If she wanted to help, she could just help. Why did she look so hesitant to speak?
But what Ding Dong said next completely shattered Lin Xianhuo's worldview. After listening, her pupils suddenly contracted, and she said, "Are you serious?"
"I… I'm sorry, Sister Immortal Fire, but I… I really want to help Brother Xiao Fan!"
"I saw it!"
"I know how exhausting Brother Xiao Fan's battles have been these days, almost dying every time!"
"I want to do my part… my humble part."
"But you… isn't that too great a price?" Lin Xianhuo's face was full of complexity.
On the other end of the phone, Ding Dong's heart raced wildly. She seemed to have used all her strength to utter that difficult sentence!
"I'm sorry, Sister Immortal Fire, I… I… I also like Brother Xiao Fan!"
"Brother Xiao Fan can have both Sister Immortal Fire and Sister Shao Yan together."
"One more Ding Dong, it's… it's okay, right?"
"Sister Immortal Fire, I'm sorry."
"I really…"
Lin Xianhuo's expression was complex.
Regarding Xiao Fan finding other women, Lin Xianhuo and Shao Yan had privately discussed it!
They were Xiao Fan's women, and they absolutely had the right to intervene in Xiao Fan's future relationships!
Alright!
It wasn't even a matter of intervening or not. Which woman wants her affection to be divided?
If Xiao Fan were to meet other people he liked in the future, this scumbag who falls in love with every person he meets might even pretend to be pitiful to them.
So they absolutely had to have enough means to protect their status!
But Lin Xianhuo had calculated everything, yet she hadn't accounted for Ding Dong being the next one to appear!
This…
She looked at Xiao Fan with a complex expression.
Xiao Fan, who was staring blankly out the window at the scenery, turned his head, sensing something, and asked blankly, "What's wrong?"
"No… nothing." Lin Xianhuo forced a smile; she truly couldn't quite process it.
Although Ding Dong was old, she was very small and pure!
Could this Xiao Fan really do it?
"Shao Yan is the eldest sister after all. For something like this… I'll ask her." Lin Xianhuo sighed helplessly and hung up the call with Ding Dong.
She immediately called Shao Yan. Although she had just undergone Fusion with the Alpha Armor, she still had rest time and could relieve her longing through video calls.
Shao Yan, who had no idea what was about to happen, answered the phone and said with a charming, teasing tone, "What's wrong, Sister Immortal Fire? Missing your sister?"
"Oh, I'll have a chance to come back and be with you, dear. I know I'm very charming, but don't miss me too much~"
Immortal Fire and Shao Yan's way of communicating had always been this explicit.
But this time, Immortal Fire couldn't be playful. She sighed and said, "Empress, I have something big to tell you. Please stay calm after you hear it!"
Shao Yan, sensing something amiss, paused and said, "Has Xiao Fan fallen for someone else?"
"No, no, uh… not yet!"
Lin Xianhuo hid in a corner where Xiao Fan couldn't hear her and told Shao Yan about Ding Dong.
After listening, the other end of the phone fell into a long silence. Lin Xianhuo didn't dare to speak and disturb Shao Yan; she wasn't sure what Shao Yan's emotions were like right now.
A woman, out there risking her life for Xiao Fan's future, only to have her home potentially stolen right under her nose?
Time seemed to stand still, the world became silent, and Lin Xianhuo's heart grew increasingly nervous!
She wondered if Shao Yan would break down?
Would she be heartbroken and distraught?
Would she be heartbroken and think she had chosen the wrong person?
Suddenly!
Shao Yan shrieked excitedly, "Ding Dong is coming too!!"
"This is great! I've wanted to cuddle with Ding Dong for so long! Ah… Hahahahahahaha!!"
Lin Xianhuo was startled and nervous by this outrageous reaction, and quickly coughed, "Cough, cough, calm down! Calm down, calm down!"
"Let's discuss this properly. Empress, don't be so agitated. If you're unwilling, I'll refuse Ding Dong. I believe Xiao Fan wouldn't be such an animal!"
But Shao Yan pouted gracefully and said, "You thought I was jealous?"
"Not at all. If Ding Dong can be that helpful, then it's good for Xiao Fan!"
"And she has no ill intentions, so she won't affect our status!"
"Besides, if anyone should be anxious, it's you. I don't even know when I'll see Xiao Fan next!"
