"Jing'er is a lively and spoiled girl. You'll have to be more tolerant and understanding of her in the future."

Ying Huanhuan laughed.

"What are you saying, Aunt? Whoever marries me will be very fortunate!"

Before Lin Fan could speak, Lin Jing had already pouted and started to refute.

"Alright, alright, you're such a grown-up, yet you still act like a child."

Ying Huanhuan looked at Lin Jing with doting eyes and reached out to pinch her fair and tender face.

"She's just a child, humph!"

Lin Jing smiled mischievously and gave a soft hum.

"You can go out now. Your aunt has something to say to Lin Fan alone."

"Huh? You've only just met, what's there to talk about?"

Lin Jing asked, puzzled, a question that also lingered in Lin Fan's mind.

"Okay, listen to me."

As Ying Huanhuan's tone became slightly serious, Lin Jing, though reluctant, could only pout and leave the main hall in dissatisfaction.

"Senior, what guidance do you have for me?!"

Lin Fan asked.

"The world today may seem prosperous and full of powerful sects, but in reality, there are undercurrents surging beneath the surface."

"I have a feeling that the real catastrophe of heaven and earth is not far away."

Ying Huanhuan's smile vanished completely, replaced by worry.

"Is it... an extraterrestrial evil race?"

This was the only possibility Lin Fan could think of.

"Ah."

“Recently, they have been making more and more moves behind the scenes, and my husband’s unease has been growing stronger.”

"With great power comes great responsibility. As the master of the Martial Realm and an important member of the Great Thousand Palace, he has an inescapable duty once a great war breaks out. Even if he dies in the end, he will have no regrets."

"As Wu Jin's grandmothers, Qingzhu and I naturally have to follow him in death, but Jing'er..."

At this point, Ying Huanhuan's expression darkened slightly, and she fell silent.

"You want me to protect her?"

"Ah."

Ying Huanhuan nodded.

"Actually, I never wanted my husband to be some kind of hero who saves the world; I just wanted my family to live a simple and happy life."

"But when the nest is overturned, no egg remains intact. You are carefree by nature and care deeply about the people around you, so no matter what happens, I hope that Jing'er will be safe and sound."

His words carried a deep sense of helplessness.

In the lower plane, they were forced to experience a life-and-death separation.

Unexpectedly, now that he has arrived in the Great Thousand World, even though the Martial Ancestor's cultivation has reached its peak, he still has to endure unexpected changes.

"Don't worry, senior. As long as I live, I will never let Jing'er be harmed in any way."

Lin Fan solemnly made a promise.

"Alright, besides Jing'er, there's one more person I need to ask of you..."

Ying Huanhuan changed the subject, her expression becoming somewhat conflicted and hesitant.

"Senior, please tell me."

“Qingtan is my husband’s younger sister and also Lin Jing’s aunt.”

"Forehead……"

Lin Fan's expression froze for a moment. He had met Lin Qingtan once before, and he had saved her life at the Heavenly Emperor's Mausoleum.

Others may not be able to tell, but I know that she is also deeply in love with you.

“Ever since returning from that trip to Tianluo Continent, she has been restless and unable to concentrate on her cultivation. She is even afraid to face Jing’er…” Ying Huanhuan seemed to have used a lot of courage to explain the whole story.

Lin Fan's expression showed surprise and doubt. He and Lin Qingtan had not had much in-depth communication. Could it really be that he was repaying a life-saving debt with his body?
With Lin Jing caught in the middle, it was indeed difficult to talk about.

"However, these problems should be manageable for you, after all, you have so many beautiful women around you..."

Ying Huanhuan wore a teasing smile.

"Um...I'll try my best..."

Lin Fan responded somewhat awkwardly.

"You should stay in the Ice Spirit Clan for now and keep Jing'er company."

After giving her a few words of advice, Ying Huanhuan's figure slowly disappeared.

Next, Lin Fan stayed with the Ice Spirit Clan for the time being.

Lin Jing's personality is the complete opposite of her name; she's never still for a moment.

Together they explored all the beautiful places in the Ice Spirit Clan and had a wonderful time.

However, the two never made the final promise. Lin Fan felt that the time was not right and he could not go against his conscience or force Lin Jing to submit to him.

Besides, Lin Dong is still angry, so it's best not to provoke him for now.

"Lin Fan, a letter from the Futu Ancient Clan."

That day, Lin Fan was playing with Lin Jing in the icy snowfield when the voice of Mandala suddenly rang in his mind.

Before leaving, Lin Fan used a wisp of his soul power to create a soul stone. As long as Mandala crushes it, she can communicate with him instantly, no matter how far away they are.

This thing is extremely troublesome to make, and Mandala is well aware of this, so she won't contact him unless there's an emergency.

"Oh?"

Lin Fan murmured a word, and then streams of information appeared in his mind.

"Heh, they invited me as a guest to watch their martial arts competition..."

A moment later, a meaningful smile appeared on his lips.

As one of the five ancient families, the Futu Ancient Clan has a complex internal structure, divided into several different factions.

For example, Qing Yanjing belongs to the Qing lineage, Xuan Luo, whom we encountered before, belongs to the Xuan lineage, and Mo Xin belongs to the Mo lineage.

Lin Fan is now extremely popular in the Great Thousand Worlds, having first pacified the Western Heaven Battle Hall and then distinguished himself during his journey to the Sacred Abyss.

Presumably, news of his incorporation of the Fire Spirit Clan has already spread.

Given the Dragon Domain's current prestige, he certainly deserves to be an invited guest.

But Lin Fan understood that the other party's search for him was definitely not that simple!
Presumably, he is taking this opportunity to put pressure on himself in order to reclaim the Eight-Part Pagoda and vent his anger from the past!

Are you leaving? I want to go with you!

Lin Jing noticed Lin Fan's unusual behavior and spoke up in a very willful manner.

"Stop messing around! If I kidnap you, your father will chase after me and try to kill me!"

Lin Fan said with a smile.

"But...I can't bear to part with you..."

Happy times always pass too quickly. During this time, Lin Jing had gotten used to Lin Fan's presence. Even if he left for a moment, she would feel uneasy.

"I'll come see you again after I finish what I'm doing. Even if your father objects, I'll still be with you then, okay?"

Lin Fan reached out and affectionately pinched Lin Jing's fair and tender cheek, smiling.

"Okay, this is what you said!"

"Next time we meet... I... I must become your woman!"

Lin Jing mustered up immense courage to say those words, her pretty face turning as red as a sunset, and then she ran away.

"Alas, it's hardest to bear the kindness of a beautiful woman."

Lin Fan sighed with a hint of helplessness. Anyway, he already owed so much, he could only pay it back slowly in the future.

Having understood this, he felt relieved, and his figure slowly disappeared from the spot. (End of Chapter)
