Over the next week, there wasn’t a single day where Lin Fan didn’t look ragged.
Those that were close to him all looked at him with knowing smiles, as if they all knew what was happening with him.
The girls also received the same looks, but they acted like they weren’t bothered at all by them.
It even looked like they were proud of what they had been doing.
But at the end of the week, that was when Lin Fan set off for the mountain that the fruit was supposed to be growing.
There was still three weeks before the fruit appeared, but it would take some time to get there and it would take some time to set up around the area. He would need to find information about the surrounding area before doing anything, so it was best if he went there early.
That was why Lin Fan was setting off now.
When he left, there was no one that came to see him off.
That was because they wanted to let him leave without anyone knowing that he would be gone.
They had even prepared a body double, which was just Senior Brother Ying with an illusion array that would show up if there was anything that would need Lin Fan to appear.
Though there wouldn’t be many cases where he would be needed to show himself since he never did much in the first place.
The girls did most of the things when it came to the Love Sect and Dungeon City after all.
So there wasn’t much that required Lin Fan’s intervention in the first place.
He would be able to leave for a long time without anyone really missing him, but it wasn’t as if he could stay away forever since there were still things that required Lin Fan’s intervention.
Even before any of that, there was no doubt that the girls would miss him if he wasn’t there.
It would be a lie to say that he wouldn’t miss them.
So Lin Fan tried his best not to be away for too long.
With the dungeon, he was able to make his way out of the city without anyone noticing him.
The space that the dungeon took up now was much larger than the city.
It was to the point where it even contained the surrounding villages above it.
If Rokuko really wanted, it would be easy for her to swallow the villages that were around the city. Of course, she wouldn’t actually do something like that since the villages were a source of precious DP for her.
All of the beings that lived in the area that her dungeon covered were a source of precious DP for her.
So it wasn’t as if she would do something like burning the bridge after crossing it by killing them all. It was better to keep them alive and happy to keep farming DP from them.
With the hidden passage of the dungeon, Lin Fan was able to make it to a point that was a kilometer away from the city.
This was a place that was in the middle of the forest, but all of a sudden…there was a staircase that appeared in the ground.
Out of this staircase came Lin Fan.
When he walked up, he couldn’t help being surprised by how far Rokuko’s dungeon reached. He had to admit that her dungeon had really grown in the time that he had been away, showing that she had put in quite a bit of effort to make her dungeon better.
Part of this was most likely because of the help that Yue Lan gave her.
Yue Lan was in charge of Dungeon City and she knew about the dungeon, so there was no doubt that she would help Rokuko grow her dungeon. After all, the larger that the dungeon was, the more prosperous Dungeon City was.
At the same time, the larger the dungeon was, the safer they would be in the future.
Yue Lan recognized that the dungeon was an important thing, not just for the city.
So she did put her all into helping Rokuko expand it.
They were enough to make Dungeon City powerful, so there was nothing for Lin Fan to worry about.
After being impressed by how much Rokuko had expanded the dungeon, Lin Fan focused on the path in front of him.
Since there was no one that knew that he was gone and since he was in the middle of nowhere, that meant that he could finally travel the way that he had traveled in the past when he moved alone.
When he hadn’t been restrained by things such as a city, a dungeon, or a sect, he had traveled alone through the Mu Empire.
It was finally a return to those times.
As this feeling sunk in, there was this strange feeling that filled him.
It was one part excitement and one part disappointment.
He was happy that he would be able to explore on his own and have his adventures again, but…he had gotten so used to being with the girls that it was a bit lonely being on his own.
Still, it wasn’t as if Lin Fan had a choice in this matter.
This was something that he was doing to protect not just them, but all of the things that they cared about. As such, he had no choice but to do this alone since it was the best way for him to do this.
After gathering himself, Lin Fan summoned Igneel.
This was the best way for him to travel.
There would be few people that would be able to follow him if he were to travel through the sky and there would be few people that would even be able to see him. As long as he had Igneel fly high enough, then there wouldn’t be anyone that would even be able to detect him.
Which was why this was the best way for him to travel.
Of course, it did feel a bit lonely with just Igneel alone, so Lin Fan summoned the rest of his beasts.
It had been a while since he had been able to summon them since he had been in places where he couldn’t summon them.
The only ones that he had summoned before were Igneel and Hayase when he needed them during the Wu Empire. The rest of them hadn’t been able to leave the Pet Storage Space in a long time.
Though the main reason why they hadn’t been able to leave was because they hadn’t been able to keep up with his cultivation.
Most of them were still in the Foundation Realm after all, so it wasn’t as if he could call them out to fight all those experts.
That didn’t mean that these beasts didn’t miss Lin Fan.
This was the time for them to make up for lost time and spend some quality time with him that they hadn’t had in a long time.
Though when Shiro cuddled up to Lin Fan, there was a jealous look on Hayase’s face.
Lin Fan just patted them both equally to make up for this and to show that he wasn’t going to get in Hayase’s way.
Lin Fan already had plenty of girls in his harem after all.
Though it seemed like Shiro wasn’t happy because of this.
It really was hard balancing the affection that he gave them.
However, it wasn’t just because he hadn’t seen them in a long time that Lin Fan called out his tamed beasts. There was another reason for calling them out and it was related to the mission that he had been assigned.
The Heavenly Demon Sect had made it clear that they and the other Five Great Sects weren’t able to move. However, Mo Xue had said that there were those that were under the Five Great Sects that would be there.
If there were others under the Five Great Sects that were there, there was no doubt that they would have received information about the Love Sect.
In other words, there was no doubt that they would have received information on Lin Fan.
In that case, it would be easy for them to recognize him.
That was why Lin Fan was planning on showing up to that place with a different identity.
He was planning on changing his entire profession by using his pets as a cover.
There was a job known as beast tamer on this continent and he had plenty of spirit beasts to choose from.
This was the best cover for Lin Fan.
With this cover, it would be easier for Lin Fan to move around unnoticed and take the Divine Blood Fruit from under everyone’s noses.
That had been his plan since the beginning and he wasn’t planning on changing it now.
As such, there were things that he needed to do to prepare.
“I’m sorry for leaving you all alone for so long. How about we go on an adventure together this time?”
The pets were all surprised when they heard this, but they quickly agreed.
Even though they knew that Lin Fan must have some other motive for bringing them along, they didn’t really care since they had been stuck inside of the Pet Storage Space for too long.
Not to mention, their loyalty to Lin Fan was almost maxed out, so it wasn’t as if they would disagree with anything that he wanted to do.
That was just the power of the max level Love Gauge Taming ability.
