He fought desperately and was seriously injured.

A qualified heartthrob can always strike a maiden's heart with a sudden entrance.

So much so that it made her forget that she was still in danger at this moment.

“Kid, how old are you, still playing the hero saving the beauty card?”

“Good heavens, it’s the first time I’ve seen someone so unafraid of death.”

“You want to stand out, but first, you need to know your own limits.”

The seven or eight people surrounding him said coldly.

Xiao Fan displayed his Late Stage Heavenly Immortal Realm, and these people, seeing that Xiao Fan was only a Heavenly Immortal, were full of disdain and did not put him in their eyes at all.

This was Xiao Fan's deliberate action.

After all, only perilous effort, a life-and-death confrontation, and unparalleled bravery could capture a maiden's heart completely and without blind spots.

What's more, this was a chance encounter, yet he was willing to risk his life for a strange woman.

She must have been moved to tears.

The maiden also became nervous; she hadn't reacted earlier, immersed in his warm embrace, but now, upon closer inspection, this Young Master was only at the Heavenly Immortal Realm.

The opponents were all True Immortals, a whole major Realm higher. How could he fight them?

“Young Master, please go, don’t let us implicate you,” the maiden said reluctantly.

Although she also fantasized about a Child of Destiny arriving on colorful auspicious clouds to save her, such a fantasy she only dared to think about.

The white-robed beauty was likewise, giving a bitter smile as she said, “The opponents are numerous and powerful; Young Master is probably no match. Even if we escape today, we will surely be hunted down later.”

“Young Master, please go. We don’t want to drag you down.”

Xiao Fan’s face was calm. He said, “How can one save someone halfway? Besides, since I chose to act, there is no reason to back down.”

“What kind of skill is it for you people to bully the weak and gang up on two weak women? The education Xiao has received since childhood does not allow him to stand by and watch others die!”

As he spoke, he took out a folding fan made of precious sandalwood, and with a gentle flick, a sense of scholarly stubbornness and conviction emerged.

Righteous Qi Constitution!

Xiao Fan turned his head, smiled at the maiden and the beauty, and said, “What I decide to do, I never abandon halfway.”

“No need to say more!”

This awe-inspiring demeanor caused the maiden and the beauty to be slightly dazed.

Perhaps they didn't understand what Righteous Qi Constitution was, but the sensory stimulation and the spontaneously arising Righteous Qi made their hearts tremble.

Those seven people were somewhat knowledgeable and recognized the Righteous Qi emanating from Xiao Fan.

However, they were only slightly surprised; they didn't take it to heart.

“Righteous Qi, rare indeed.”

“No wonder he’s so bold; turns out he’s a poverty-stricken, pedantic scholar.”

“I think he’s read himself silly.”

“Kill him!”

The two women were also surprised to hear it: Righteous Qi.

This name sounds like someone from the Righteous Path!

No wonder he's so enthusiastic.

Immediately, someone attacked, striking at Xiao Fan.

Xiao Fan was not ambiguous either, and immediately began to entangle with these people.

Every move was fatal, filled with peril. Several times, the spears and swords of those people grazed Xiao’s neck, heart, and other vital points. One careless mistake and he would be decapitated.

The maiden clenched her fists tightly, her palms sweating, and her face filled with worry.

“Young Master, you must be careful.”

At first, it was just one person. After realizing they couldn't take down Xiao Fan, they added two more people to gang up on Xiao Fan.

The rest of the people seized the opportunity to act, intending to capture the maiden and the beauty.

The maiden assumed a defensive stance, her heart extremely nervous, but she did not retreat. Her aunt behind her was already severely injured and completely unable to escape; she had to protect her aunt.

Xiao Fan was currently entangled with three people and couldn't break free.

And the two women were not strong enough to resist; they were about to be captured.

The maiden closed her eyes tightly, feeling somewhat resigned. It was all her fault for being too weak, for not having the strength to protect her aunt.

If given the chance, she would become stronger no matter what.

At a critical moment, Xiao Fan endured the pain of being stabbed, pulled away, and unexpectedly rushed back.

He stood in front of the two women.

A bloody scent permeated the air, and the maiden felt a bit confused. She slowly opened her eyes and saw a man with tattered robes.

A sharp sword was plunged into Xiao Fan's back, piercing through his chest from behind, like a solid steel shield, blocking the maiden.

Blood flowed incessantly, yet he stood unmoving as a mountain!

The maiden's delicate hand lightly covered her red lips, her beautiful eyes glistening with sorrowful tears, and an inexplicable emotion surged in her heart.

This was a sense of security she had never experienced before.

Young Master, he…

“Cough, cough~”

Xiao Fan coughed up blood and laughed heartily.

“Are you serious? Seven of you against me, and you still resort to sneak attacks?”

“Have you no shame?”

The maiden's heart completely succumbed. Her beautiful eyes widened. Even when facing a desperate situation, enduring the pain of his injuries, this man still chose to stand in front of them.

Especially that hearty laugh just now, facing despair yet remaining unyielding, made her delicate body tremble even more.

Women are both sensual and emotional.

Seeing Xiao Fan desperately protecting them, the maiden's tears streamed down, and she said choked with emotion:

“Young Master, are you, are you alright?”

“I, I’ll bandage your wound.”

She stepped forward, wanting to simply treat Xiao Fan's wound and stop the bleeding.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Fan turned back, grabbed her hand, and smiled, “Crying will make your face ugly. Smile more.”

Without waiting for the maiden to respond, Xiao Fan actively pushed her away and directly soared into the air.

Leaving the maiden standing rooted to the spot, lost in thought for a long time.

When she came back to her senses and looked up at the sky again, she found that Xiao Fan had already resolved to die.

The seven people opposite also didn't expect this person to be so troublesome.

“Kid, I admit I underestimated you.”

“But your Realm is too low, and it’s one against seven. Be careful in your next life, don’t try to be a hero again.”

The seven people attacked in unison, planning to take down Xiao Fan first, then capture the two women.

“You’ll have to get past me first.”

Blood oozed from Xiao Fan’s lips, yet he wore a smile, looking somewhat tragic, which deeply pierced the maiden’s heart.

His expression changed; the Righteous Qi completely disappeared, replaced by chilling black Qi Haunt, and pure Devilish Qi surged from his body. His face became cold and ruthless.

“It’s been a long time since I entered the Devilish Qi, although it might make me lose my mind, at least there’s still a glimmer of Life Qi.”

“A single thought can reach the heavens, gods and devils fear nothing!”

As soon as his voice fell, pure Devilish Qi formed a black armor around his body, and his entire face became incredibly sinister, dark, and eerie.

“Entering the Devilish Qi?”

“Good heavens, he’s really not afraid of death.”

“Choosing to enter the Devilish Qi to fight to the death? Even if you win, you’ll become mentally unstable.”

The maiden didn't know what was happening, but she could roughly understand that Xiao Fan was preparing to fight to the death.

Immediately, Xiao Fan went up to fight again.

This time, the blackening enhanced Xiao Fan's strength, but he could only barely cope, and his injuries continued to increase.

The maiden watched with growing anxiety, especially as the blade grazed vital points; one careless move and he could die a violent death.

As for Xiao Fan, fighting to the death was impossible.

At most, he could only put on a show and trick little girls to barely maintain the appearance of a new life.

Xiao Fan’s attention was never here; his attention was always in the distance.

In his line of sight, Lin Yu had already killed his opponent and was rushing back, dragging his injured and disabled body.

“That’s enough.”

Xiao Fan was accidentally struck by a palm.

It landed squarely in the arms of the white-robed beauty. He was facing the white-robed beauty, and his body involuntarily flew over, knocking her down.

He accidentally wrapped his arms around her slender waist, and the two fell to the ground.

His head felt a bit weak, and by chance, he bumped into her red lips.

Feeling a bit uncomfortable, he stuck out his tongue to breathe.

He really didn't do it on purpose!

The white-robed beauty was already severely injured and could not dodge at all, so she could only let him do as he pleased.

Although Xiao Fan was heavily injured and so impolitely knocked her down, she only felt her heart racing.

There was no resistance, no daring to breathe; she could only remain stiff and still, her cherry lips slightly parted, her red lips gently opened.

And Xiao Fan had already fainted.

The white-robed beauty came back to her senses, her pretty face flushed red. She wanted to say something, but then realized Xiao Fan had already fainted.

Her excited heart felt a little disappointed; she had thought he was conscious.

The maiden quickly helped him up. Because he was facing away from her, she didn't see what happened.

“Young Master, are you alright?” She helped Xiao Fan to his feet, her beautiful eyes red, and two streams of clear tears flowed down.

The seven people opposite also pursued the victory, wanting to kill Xiao Fan and then take the two women.

Just at this critical moment, Lin Yu, dragging his exhausted body, finally rushed back.

When he saw his pale-faced younger sister and his weak aunt, an unknown anger surged in his heart.

Lin Yu flew over quickly, landing in front of the two women. Looking at his haggard younger sister and aunt, he felt very distressed and softly asked, “Ningqin, Aunt, are you alright?”

Lin Ningqin, with Phoenix eyebrows and cold eyes, looked at him angrily without a single word, then lowered her head, took out a silk handkerchief, and very gently wiped the blood from Xiao Fan’s face.

Aunt Hua Yinyin also didn’t speak, not even glancing at Lin Yu directly.

Her resentment was even deeper; if it weren't for this Young Master desperately blocking these people for them, they would have been captured long ago.

The consequences would have been unimaginable.

Hua Yinyin cooperated with Lin Ningqin, bandaging Xiao Fan's wounds and wiping the blood from his body with great care.

Xiao Fan was feigning death, looking very pained on the outside, but feeling inwardly delighted.

In front of the Child of Destiny, to have the Child of Destiny’s younger sister and aunt show him tenderness—this feeling was simply wonderful!

Feeling the resentment of the two, Lin Yu's heart was also filled with guilt. It was obvious that if he had returned a step later, they would have been in danger.

“Ningqin, I got carried away just now, you know that guy just now…” Lin Yu still wanted to explain something.

Lin Ningqin took a deep breath and said calmly:

“Your revenge is more important. Go, kill them all, leave no one behind. We don’t need you to worry about us.”

There was no anger, no shouting. The more she was like this, the more guilty Lin Yu felt. It was indeed his fault just now.

Lin Ningqin sided with Hua Yinyin; she also wanted revenge but knew their strength was insufficient.

If not for Lin Yu’s sudden appearance, she wouldn’t have come out with him and encountered such danger.

“Ningqin, I…”

“We don’t need you to worry about us, get lost!”

“Where were you when I needed you? Aunt almost died just now, where were you? You only think about revenge; you don’t even see us.”

Lin Ningqin finally couldn't hold back and yelled.

Her eyes were tearful, and tears flowed uncontrollably.

Lin Yu had nothing to say, because it really was his problem. At the very beginning, Hua Yinyin had mentioned that it might be a trap.

But Lin Yu was very confident, saying that killing one person wouldn't take long, and he wouldn't feel right if he didn't kill that person.

Without a moment's hesitation, Lin Yu rushed out, because he was very confident in his own strength; no one of the same Realm could defeat him.

Who knew that person didn't want to fight him at all, but just wanted to lure him away.

Lin Yu also knew that speaking at this moment would only make the atmosphere more awkward.

Forget it, first kill these few flies buzzing around.

Before leaving, Lin Yu took out a bottle of Medicinal Pills, wrapped it in his magical power, and handed it to Hua Yinyin.

“Aunt, this can help you recover from your injuries.”

Hua Yinyin took it indifferently. She had already decided not to travel with Lin Yu anymore and to take Ningqin with her as well.

Following him would only bring danger, endless danger.

For Ningqin's and her own safety, stay away from Lin Yu!

Lin Yu felt a little relieved when she accepted it.

He took a deep breath, his face ashen, and coldly looked at the few people who hadn't left yet. They were still hesitating, wanting to retreat but not retreating.

“Shall we go?”

“He’s heavily injured, let’s give it a try.”

“No pain, no gain.”
