72: Visionary
The two lay on the hotel's snow-white, soft bed, bathed in a soft, pale yellow light.
Xiao Fan curled his lips and said, “He has this kind of talent too?”
“Quasi-Divine-Grade, Illusionist?”
“He can transform into anyone or anything? And even conjure weapons? Martial Arts?”
“And that guy has dozens of identities? How are we supposed to find him?”
“But I am quite curious, why would he stay in Tianlei City when he clearly knows some of his identities have been exposed?”
Lin Xianhuo’s slender, fair hand caressed Xiao Fan’s scar, and she softly said, “Who knows?”
At this moment, Xiao Fan suddenly grasped Lin Xianhuo’s hand, his expression filled with conflict.
Lin Xianhuo was startled and said, “What’s wrong, Fan Fan?”
“I felt like you had something on your mind earlier.”
Xiao Fan shook his head, his expression complex. He was wondering whether he should tell Lin Xianhuo about having the Divine Ape Golden Body.
She is my woman, she helped me find the Immortal Fire, and even gave me the Demon Warfire.
And what have I given her?
Accompanied her in devil training?
Xiao Fan suddenly gave a self-deprecating laugh. Thinking about it, he really didn’t seem like much of a man. He had never given Immortal Fire any romance or surprises. Instead, she had always been sacrificing for him.
So what was there to hesitate about?
“Close your eyes, I have a surprise for you,” Xiao Fan said with a smile.
Lin Xianhuo’s eyes held some worry, but she still closed them.
“Alright, open them,” Xiao Fan had already taken out the golden page.
Her captivating eyes slowly opened. Seeing the faint golden light before her, Lin Xianhuo was momentarily stunned. Then, after carefully scanning the contents within...
“Holy crap!”
Lin Xianhuo was so shocked that she instantly straightened her back, her snow-white skin immediately leaping out from under the covers!
“This is the first stance?”
“The first stance of the Divine Ape Golden Body!?”
“How did it end up in your hands?”
Xiao Fan smiled and explained the matter with the Black Tiger Gang back then.
Lin Xianhuo trembled with excitement, hugging Xiao Fan tightly!
“I love you!” Lin Xianhuo said sweetly, her eyes filled with deep affection.
She finally understood Xiao Fan’s dilemma.
This was the first stance of the Divine Ape Golden Body, something countless super forces across the world were going mad over!
Once it was exposed that she had it, Xiao Fan might die an unnatural death tomorrow!
But he only hesitated for a moment before choosing to give it to her!
She knew exactly what this meant.
What kind of person was Xiao Fan?
She remembered Shao Yan saying that deep within Xiao Fan’s heart was a thick wall because he was just a one-star talent, a good-for-nothing. No one looked up to him, no one had any expectations for him, so he never trusted anyone!
Although that sense of distance had faded a lot since they got together, there was still some!
But now, it was completely gone!
For Xiao Fan to give away something that could very likely cost him his life, it was enough to show that Xiao Fan had no reservations whatsoever towards her and trusted her completely!
Lin Xianhuo was so excited that tears flowed from the corners of her eyes, her lips trembling slightly.
Pursuing Xiao Fan was the most correct thing she had ever done in her life!
Xiao Fan dotingly stroked her soft red hair and smiled, “You can Cultivate the first stance for now.”
“That Illusionist staying in Tianlei City definitely has some ulterior motive. Anyway, we’re going to live here, so maybe we can find the rest!”
“Let’s try to reach the third stage before the Super God Class begins!”
Lin Xianhuo, with a face full of happy smiles, lay on Xiao Fan like a charming, well-behaved kitten, nodding softly.
Then, the topic of their conversation suddenly became ambiguous, and the temperature seemed to become even hotter.
“Immortal Fire is the best~”
...
The next day, both were refreshed. One continued to temper with Lei Zong and Cultivate the Divine Ape Golden Body, while the other went to find Ling Tianlei, preparing to collect some Lei Zong.
Ling Tianlei arrived, but he was accompanied by a thin little girl, as gaunt as a withered branch. Her eyes were very large, and she hid shyly beside Ling Tianlei, observing Xiao Fan with fear.
Xiao Fan glanced at her, and after confirming there was nothing wrong with the little girl, he sighed, thinking, if you want to talk about having fun, others really know how to have fun. Look, even the 'raising' type is here!
All day long, Ling Tianlei was very silent, carrying the little girl on his back, seemingly lost in thought.
Xiao Fan leisurely followed behind, killing when he needed to kill, snatching when he needed to snatch. In one day, he gained three Storage Rings and two first-tier Lei Zong.
They weren't very useful, but every little bit adds up, and there was still half a year left.
But today, when Xiao Fan was killing the alien race himself, Ling Tianlei just watched from the side, silent, no longer like yesterday, noisy and shouting about love and peace.
It seemed that the dark industrial chain was beginning to make Ling Tianlei gradually understand the truth of this world!
Last night, Xiao Fan also learned about Ling Tianlei’s family affairs from Immortal Fire.
His mother suffered from depression because her brother died in battle. For so many years, her mental state had been very problematic, she was often delirious, and she constantly brainwashed Ling Tianlei, telling him not to fight, not to kill, unless he had no choice but to encounter an alien race.
The mother wanted to blunt her child's fangs, but the World-Destroying Thunder talent had already determined Ling Tianlei's fate.
Two years ago, his parents completely broke up and divorced. His father chose to leave with nothing and gained custody of Ling Tianlei!
“You’re not fit to be a father! Do you really want Tianlei to die on the battlefield!?” his mother shrieked, losing her voice.
Ling Tianlei’s father remained calm and said, “I once stood in your position, believing there was nothing wrong with living an ordinary life.”
“But Tianlei has already made his own choice; a fierce tiger cannot be caged!”
“Your extreme upbringing will only greatly increase his chances of dying on the battlefield!”
...
Then in the evening, he went back to pick up his wife, had a pleasant night, and the next day, he was refreshed again!
“The auction is about to begin,” Xiao Fan said, making a call to Bai Zhuangzhuang.
He also learned from Immortal Fire why the two had such a good relationship.
The Bai family, though wealthy, in this world, money is not supreme; strength is.
Both are important, but the former is ultimately inferior to the latter. So, in the imperial capital, where strong individuals gathered, Bai Zhuangzhuang, who was plump and looked easy to bully, became a target for bullying.
When others ran out of money, they would go to Bai Zhuangzhuang to rob him. Bai Zhuangzhuang dared not refuse, nor did he dare to tell his father!
Until one time, when he was cornered and being robbed, he met Lin Xianhuo.
Lin Xianhuo immediately beat everyone up, and then came the words Bai Zhuangzhuang would never forget:
“Hang out with me, and no one will ever bully you again!”
Therefore, when he learned about the Divine Ape Golden Body fragment, Bai Zhuangzhuang immediately ran to tell Lin Xianhuo, wanting to give the best thing to Sister Lin!
Xiao Fan went downstairs, and Bai Zhuangzhuang was already waiting below, looking leisurely and yawning.
“Brother Fan!” Seeing Xiao Fan come down, Bai Zhuangzhuang’s face immediately broke into a smile.
“Let’s go,” Xiao Fan chuckled softly, having a very good impression of this little fatty.
He patted Bai Zhuangzhuang’s shoulder, then suddenly paused. The hardness of the muscles on his shoulder surprised him greatly.
It turned out this guy wasn’t just fat, he was strong!
“That’s interesting.”
Bai Zhuangzhuang grinned, proudly saying, “Sister Lin has started working incredibly hard, so I naturally can’t fall behind!”
“I want to go to the Super God Class too!”
“Alright,” Xiao Fan nodded slightly. He suddenly noticed that the two mixed-race individuals who had checked in with him two days ago also came downstairs.
The four of them met each other’s gaze, then passed by, the atmosphere a bit subtle.
Xiao Fan looked at their retreating figures, frowning. He vaguely felt that they were all going to the same place.
Moreover, there seemed to be quite a bit of entanglement.
This was an intuition accumulated over many years. The first time Xiao Fan saw that flat-chested woman, he felt something was off.
Now looking again...
Forget it, who cares? I'm going to the auction not to buy anything specific, but to buy Martial Arts and Lei Zong!
After leaving the building, both put on black robes.
Xiao Fan glanced at Bai Zhuangzhuang beside him; his belly was visibly bulging under the robe, making it hard not to recognize him.
“Isn’t this… a bit obvious?”
At this moment, Bai Zhuangzhuang took a deep breath, and the excess fat on his abdomen was sucked directly back in!
Xiao Fan was a little astonished and said, “You can do that?”
“Hehe, feigning weakness, isn’t that a good thing, Brother Fan?” Bai Zhuangzhuang retorted.
This greatly surprised Xiao Fan, who said, “You’ve got something.”
“Let’s go!”
Both of them produced recommendation letters. It was too easy for Bai Zhuangzhuang to get one.
Finally, they stepped together into the noisy auction hall!
