64: Chapter 63 A Phone Call
"It's done... I've done it!"
"Nascent Soul... I'm coming for you!"
A moment later, Qin Jindan's excited cheers drifted out from the opening in the glass.
He casually kicked Chang Yufei's body toward the glass and evaluated with disdain:
"So much for the Xianmi Group that everyone chases after; in the end, don't they still have to become consumable materials for our Breakthrough?"
After speaking, he bowed to the one-way glass and finally left through a hidden door.
This was the decision Li Fan had made.
He had only met Chang Yufei twice, and regarding his own leisurely days.
Watching this vibrant life fade away before his eyes did not stir the slightest ripple or guilt in Li Fan's heart.
Moreover, Li Fan looked at the dying Chang Yufei behind the glass; she still had one breath left.
Seeing that the dust had settled, the Woman in white coat on the side had a faint look of disappointment, as if she hadn't gotten her way.
She sighed softly.
"Tsk, I didn't manage to trap you."
Then, she threw out a Cultivation Technique and vanished.
Li Fan caught the Cultivation Technique and took a look; it was indeed the Body Seizing Art used in the experiment just now.
Tucked inside the Cultivation Technique was a jade pendant.
Seeing this, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly; his choice had indeed been correct.
West District, Pharmaceutical Affairs Center, inside the Procurement Management Department Chairman's office.
The door slowly opened, and Wen Xinmei, who was busy with a Foundation Establishment female Cultivator, looked up.
She saw Li Fan enter the room carrying a withered body and gently place it on the guest sofa.
Thus, Wen Xinmei put down her work and walked over.
She looked at the dying body and could barely make out that it was a female.
"This is..."
Li Fan did not explain, but told Wen Xinmei calmly:
"I have to return to the Spirit Refining Tower, I'll come keep you company afterward."
Facing Li Fan's sudden and unexplained departure.
Wen Xinmei did not hesitate at all; instead, she took out a token.
"The flying shuttle just allocated for taking the position of Chief; using this will be much faster."
Seeing this, Li Fan nodded.
Although his woman was a bit scary at times, she was very reliable at critical moments.
Wen Xinmei didn't waste any more words.
"Go quickly, come back early. If it's too long... I will miss you."
Riding Wen Xinmei's flying shuttle, it didn't take long.
Li Fan transferred Chang Yufei from the office's guest sofa to the lazy sofa in the Spirit Refining Room.
Wen Xinran also didn't ask many questions; under Li Fan's instruction, she brought over all the great rejuvenation pills she had refined during this time.
Looking at the round, glossy Medicinal Pills, Li Fan felt a pang of heartache, but he still fed them all into Chang Yufei's mouth in one go.
Then, he channeled Spiritual Qi to help her refine them in her abdomen.
This great rejuvenation pill was a powerful tonic, perfect for saving Chang Yufei, who had her Physique seized and was hanging on by a single breath.
At the same time, he cast a spell to activate the Spirit Gathering Array in the Spirit Refining Room, frantically drawing the surrounding Spiritual Qi into Chang Yufei's body.
This was the reason why he had to come to the Spirit Refining Room.
The Spiritual Qi drawn by this 68th-floor Spirit Refining Room was almost at the level of Golden Core Perfection approaching Nascent Soul.
In the present world, apart from the higher floors of the same building, he was afraid he couldn't find a place with a higher Spiritual Qi content than this.
As the medicinal power dissipated and a large amount of Spiritual Qi poured into Chang Yufei's body.
Her withered body finally began to gradually recover, and her breathing stabilized.
Seeing this, Li Fan breathed a sigh of relief, sitting beside Chang Yufei to carefully regulate the Spiritual Qi in her body.
Chang Yufei, who was lying on the sofa, was not unconscious.
Or rather, she had regained some consciousness as early as when Li Fan carried her out of the glass room.
And as the Spiritual Qi continued to pour in, her conscious perception became increasingly clear.
She could even clearly feel the flickering fire in the Pill Furnace in the Spirit Refining Room, Wen Xinran's anxious expression, and Li Fan's slight breathing.
However, she couldn't control her body at all.
This wasn't the feeling of ordinary physical exhaustion, but as if her entire nervous System had been extracted, unable to perceive the existence of her body.
Li Fan was unaware of all this; as far as he was concerned, Chang Yufei was no different from a vegetable right now.
The next day, Li Fan woke up leisurely.
He hurriedly withdrew his legs that had subconsciously rested on Chang Yufei while he slept.
Then he lifted up Wen Xinran, who was lying on top of him.
Brushing the dust off Chang Yufei, Li Fan confirmed there was nothing seriously wrong before gently tapping Wen Xinran on the head.
"Must you squeeze onto me? Didn't you see there's a wounded person beside us?"
Wen Xinran stuck out her tongue and then ran back to the Pill Furnace to refine Medicinal Pills.
Li Fan looked at Chang Yufei, who had recovered to a state similar to normal.
He was puzzled as to why she still hadn't woken up.
"Could there be some unexpected situation?"
However, Li Fan was not anxious; as long as she wasn't dead, it was fine.
He opened his terminal and began searching for news online.
As expected, Chang Yufei was, after all, a member of the Xianmi Group.
As time fermented, the news of her mysterious disappearance had also surged to the hot searches.
However, this was not the information Li Fan was looking for; he continued to scroll down, but reached the bottom without finding anything.
"I'll just wait then, I don't believe it."
After speaking, Li Fan put down the terminal and called Wen Xinran over; it just so happened that he hadn't used the Teaching System for a long time.
[Target: Wen Xinran, Qi Refining 9th Layer, Miraculous Heart Manifestation Method Proficiency has understood 1st Layer]
During this time, Wen Xinran's cultivation and understanding of the Cultivation Technique had both improved by one level.
Unlike Li Fan, who was a person who usually lay flat and slacked off, not improving without the System.
Li Fan nodded with satisfaction and patted Wen Xinran's head.
"Continue teaching you the Miraculous Heart Manifestation Method."
After speaking, he thought of something and added:
"Listen to the lesson properly, no wild thoughts allowed!"
Third day.
[Target: Wen Xinran, Miraculous Heart Manifestation Method Proficiency has understood 7th Layer, today has reached her Aptitude comprehension limit.]
After finishing teaching Wen Xinran, Li Fan followed his usual routine of surfing the internet.
Today, the internet was very lively.
First, Luo Shuying also rarely spoke out, hoping the public could provide clues about the missing Chang Yufei.
Secondly, the top star of the 'Feise Group', Yun Baimei, actually announced that she was going to quit the group.
This person had the same positioning as Chang Yufei beside Li Fan, belonging to the big sister of the group.
She had Foundation Establishment cultivation; it was unknown which academy she would join directly after quitting this time.
Finally, there was the daily official statement, calling on everyone to discuss the disappearance rationally.
Moving his gaze away from the terminal, Li Fan looked at Chang Yufei, who was also lying on the sofa beside him, and pinched her face.
"Why aren't you waking up quickly? Your sisters are very worried about you."
Now Li Fan also roughly understood.
Chang Yufei's current state had an inseparable connection to her Physique being seized, but there wasn't a very good solution.
Wen Xinran, who was on the side, also leaned over; at this moment, seeing Chang Yufei, whose body had completely recovered, she realized belatedly:
"Isn't this the woman everyone is looking for in the hot news these past few days?"
Seeing this, she covered her mouth and exclaimed:
"Husband, playing this big, aren't you afraid of the Xuanxing Department?"
This remark left Li Fan speechless; did Wen Xinran really take him for a human trafficker?
At this point, he simply straightened Chang Yufei's body, reached out to hook her shoulder, and said some inexplicable words.
"Soul, return!"
"Resurrect!"
Seeing that there was no reaction as usual, Li Fan also lost interest and turned back to surf the internet.
But Chang Yufei's trapped Divine Soul knew clearly.
For these three days, Li Fan had stayed by her side without taking a step away.
Besides taking time to teach Wen Xinran, he was helping her sort out the mixed Spiritual Qi in her body.
Occasionally acting crazy in a mysterious way, which could even make her Divine Soul amused.
It could be considered the only consolation for Chang Yufei, who was unable to move.
This man before her eyes, who had no proper form, unexpectedly made her feel very at ease.
Unknowingly, she had developed an inexplicable sense of reliance.
In reality.
Li Fan wasn't staying by Chang Yufei's side without taking a step away, but rather by the comfortable lazy sofa.
If no one disturbed him on a normal day, he could stay in the Spirit Refining Room like this for a week.
Helping Chang Yufei sort out the stagnant Spiritual Qi was just incidental.
Fourth day.
The hard training points Li Fan accumulated through the Lying Flat System reached 920.
Wen Xinran also successfully mastered the Miraculous Heart Manifestation Method; the next stage was to comprehend it to Major Achievement.
Surfing the internet as usual, the popularity of the news related to Chang Yufei had dropped quite a bit, already surpassed by many new hot topics.
Li Fan, who continued to scroll down, suddenly stopped his finger.
He immediately jumped up from the sofa, looking excited.
"Finally waited for you."
The attention on this piece of news on the terminal was not very high.
It could only be said to be a routine announcement, nothing more ordinary.
"The Qin Family has a newly promoted Nascent Soul Cultivator, who may take the position of Chief of multiple departments at United Pharmaceutical."
Savoring the lines of the news, Li Fan chuckled softly.
"Chairman of multiple departments?"
Regarding this Qin Jindan, Li Fan had long since decided to kill him.
That day, he couldn't figure out the background of the Woman in white coat and was worried she might really leak the information.
The Qin Family didn't matter, but if the official authorities were dragged into it, it would be a big problem.
At the same time, in order to save time to treat Chang Yufei, he let this Qin Jindan go back.
Now, it seemed that after Qin broke through to Nascent Soul, he was going to come to United Pharmaceutical to act rampant for a while; his movements were already grasped.
This time, without the Woman in white coat watching covetously from the side, Li Fan opened his terminal and whispered softly.
"Nascent Soul, so what?"
Chang Yufei on the sofa observed Li Fan's determined expression.
She didn't understand how he, a Foundation Establishment Cultivator,
could still have such a confident look when facing a Nascent Soul Cultivator who was two major Realms higher.
Li Fan clicked on the terminal page.
...
Ding! Ding! Ding!
Rongfan Secret Realm, villa, Cultivation Room, a ringing sound came from beside Nangong Miao, who was repairing an escape talisman.
She picked up the terminal that Li Fan had provided her when she first moved here.
Nangong Miao did not click accept and rejected the call request.
But with a movement of her Divine Thought, the scene inside the Spirit Refining Room appeared in her eyes.
Only hearing Li Fan speak slowly:
"A-Miao, help me catch someone."
