23: Master and Disciple Reunion

“Husband, will Lin Fan really be alright on this trip?”

Zhao Rou asked Su Xuan, her voice trembling slightly.

Su Xuan gently put his arm around her shoulder and comforted her, “Wife, don’t worry! He’ll be fine!”

“I prepared many life-saving items for him (he has nothing), and besides, Old Ling is protecting him. At least, he’ll be fine until Old Ling returns!”

Su Xuan stroked Zhao Rou’s beautiful hair, comforting her softly.

“That’s good! I feel relieved hearing you say that, husband…”

Zhao Rou leaned into Su Xuan’s embrace.

“Husband… I suddenly feel insecure again. Can you give me some security?”

Zhao Rou said, blushing.

“Since my wife says so, I will certainly fill your heart with enough security!”

Su Xuan smiled faintly.

…

Inside the carriage, Lin Fan looked through the window crack at his mother’s increasingly blurry figure, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

Lin Fan saw their intimate actions clearly. Although Lin Fan felt extremely uncomfortable about this, he had no way to deal with the man named Su.

“Ahhhhh! Why do I have to go through this!”

Lin Fan couldn't understand where he had offended Su Xuan, for Su Xuan to target him so much.

What was most infuriating was that, even now, he didn't know what Su Xuan's name was!

In other words, he had been slandered and suppressed by someone whose name he didn’t even know all this time.

What was most infuriating was that this person had even used sweet words to trick his mother away!

And his own mother actually spoke up for the other party, which was the most unbearable thing for him!

“Ahhhhh! I’m so angry!”

Lin Fan trembled with rage, wishing he could smash this carriage.

However, the oppressive feeling Old Ling gave him was simply too strong. Just looking at the other party’s back, Lin Fan couldn’t help but shiver.

Could this really be the oppressive feeling brought by an old man who looked like he was about to die of old age?

Could it be that the older, the more cunning is a truth?

Old Ling was unaware of Lin Fan’s little thoughts. In fact, an array was set up inside the carriage, so Old Ling didn’t know what Lin Fan was thinking inside.

This carriage was personally designed by Su Xuan earlier, supposedly for something called “car rocking.”

Setting up an array inside was very expensive, especially an array that even a Feng Huang Realm expert like Old Ling couldn’t see through.

However, Su Long, who doted on Su Xuan, didn’t say much and spent a lot of money to fulfill Su Xuan’s idea.

“Lin Fan? Is that you?”

Just then, a familiar voice came from Lin Fan’s ring.

Hearing this familiar voice again, Lin Fan was instantly ecstatic. Having not seen his Revered Master for so long, Lin Fan had missed her terribly.

“Revered Master! It’s me! I’m Lin Fan! I finally see you again! Revered Master!”

Hearing Luo Hongyi’s voice, Lin Fan almost cried to death.

“No! Revered Master! This isn’t the time to talk! This carriage belongs to that Su fellow. Aren’t you afraid he’ll find out if you come out like this, Revered Master?”

Lin Fan said worriedly.

Especially with that terrifyingly oppressive old man outside, if he forcibly tried to snatch this ring, Lin Fan would have no way to stop him!

“Disciple, don’t worry! This carriage has an array set up that even ordinary Venerables can’t see through! Just relax!”

Luo Hongyi said calmly.

“It’s actually that amazing!”

Upon hearing this, Lin Fan suddenly understood why Luo Hongyi dared to come out like this.

“Revered Master! That Su fellow, he didn’t do anything to you, did he?”

Lin Fan said worriedly.

After that day, Lin Fan fell into a coma. When he woke up again, he was already covered in sweat.

He had been very worried about Luo Hongyi all this time, but he had no news of her.

Now seeing Luo Hongyi recovered, Lin Fan was incredibly happy.

“Revered Master! You seem to have become much more substantial than before!”

Lin Fan said with some surprise.

He remembered that when he first met Luo Hongyi, she was already quite severely ethereal.

If he hadn’t accidentally picked up a third-grade Soul Nurturing Grass, Luo Hongyi would probably have vanished into thin air.

Now, Luo Hongyi’s state seemed to be much better than before, which inevitably made Lin Fan a little suspicious.

“It’s a long story!”

“That day, after I was captured by him, he called many experts to research me!”

“Unfortunately, I hid myself very well, and they didn’t discover my existence. I also took this opportunity to find many pills that solidify the soul!”

“Now, my strength has reached one percent of my Peak, and even ordinary Feng Huang Realm experts might not be my match!”

Luo Hongyi said confidently.

In addition, Luo Hongyi’s soul power could now support her to move freely, so she wouldn’t have to be carried around by Lin Fan like an accessory anymore.

Of course, this was all to deceive Lin Fan. The current her was already Su Xuan’s form.

“So that’s how it is! Revered Master, you’re amazing!”

Although he had some doubts, hearing Luo Hongyi say this, Lin Fan was incredibly happy. The stronger Luo Hongyi was, the more beneficial it would be for him.

As for whether Luo Hongyi had betrayed him, it was hard to say for now. Anyway, it was always right to be cautious.

Seeing Lin Fan trust her so much, Luo Hongyi breathed a sigh of relief. She had thought Lin Fan would be suspicious, but it seemed she had just overthought things.

However, seeing Lin Fan trust her so much, Luo Hongyi’s heart suddenly felt a little guilty.

“Breaking faith… Is this how I should be?”

Luo Hongyi murmured to herself.

“Hmm… my body…”

As soon as she finished speaking, Luo Hongyi’s body suddenly felt a strange sensation.

“Revered Master? What’s wrong?”

Lin Fan was a little surprised. From his perspective, the jade ring was shaking violently at this moment. Lin Fan didn’t know what was happening to Luo Hongyi.

“Wuwuwu, I was wrong, Revered Master, please don’t punish me! I know I was wrong!”

“I won’t feel guilty again. Now I am Revered Master’s person, so guilt doesn’t exist at all!”

“As Revered Master’s enemy, Lin Fan, I will definitely help Revered Master deal with him properly and complete Revered Master’s mission!”

Luo Hongyi was in agony, begging for mercy desperately. She truly hadn’t expected that Su Xuan was actually watching her at this moment!

“Next time, it won’t be like this!”

Su Xuan rubbed Zhao Rou’s hair and smiled evilly.

“As you command… Revered Master!”

At this moment, Luo Hongyi was truly scared. This Su Xuan truly didn’t understand how to cherish and protect women.

“I’m fine! I’m fine! I’m just a little excited, after all, I’m very happy to meet my disciple again…”

Luo Hongyi said, panting heavily.

“So that’s how it is! You don’t need to be too excited, Revered Master! From now on, even if I risk my life, I won’t lose you!”

Lin Fan promised.

“That’s for the best!”

Luo Hongyi didn’t say much.
