Three days after the day that the Divine Blood Fruit bloomed, everything went back to normal.
Winding Stream Town had been filled with some more people during the time leading up to the Divine Blood Fruit ripening, but as soon as it was confirmed that the Divine Blood Fruit was gone, everyone suddenly left Winding Stream Town.
Many of them even left the Yao Kingdom since there was no reason for them to stay here.
The Yao Kingdom was nothing more than a small country in the first place, so there weren’t any special resources in this place. The only reason that they had come to the Yao Kingdom was for this Divine Blood Fruit.
But without the Divine Blood Fruit, there was no reason for them to stay.
It was only after everyone left that Ye Qing Huan and Lin Fan left as well.
During these three days, Lin Fan had basically been confined to the room that they rented. Other than eating and sleeping, they had been dual cultivating the entire time.
Ye Qing Huan found that after refining the Divine Blood Fruit, Lin Fan’s physique not only got better, but it also had a better effect on her own physique. As such, the more that they dual cultivated, the better her physique became.
Lin Fan was also aware of this since dual cultivating was an intimate affair.
He was able to easily figure out that Ye Qing Huan’s physique was improving which was a good thing for him. After all, the Divine Blood Fruit was supposed to be used to improve Ye Qing Huan’s physique.
Since he refined the Divine Blood Fruit in the end, Ye Qing Huan didn’t receive the effect that she should have received. That meant that if she went back the same and without the Divine Blood Fruit, they would have easily figured out that someone else took the Divine Blood Fruit.
When that time came, it would have been certain that they would come looking for him.
So if he was able to improve her physique with dual cultivation, then he was more than happy to go along with it.
It wasn’t as if he had an ulterior motive or anything…
After the three days of dual cultivation, it was finally time for them to separate.
As they were prepared to leave, Ye Qing Huan looked at Lin Fan to say, “We’ll meet again soon.”
Lin Fan couldn’t help trembling when he heard this.
While he had already tamed her with the Love Gauge Taming, Ye Qing Huan was just too hard for him to see through. She did all kinds of things that he just didn’t understand at all and it was hard for him to keep up with her.
Though most of the things that she did turned out to help him, his heart really wasn’t able to keep up with this.
The more time that he spent with her, the more that he felt that he might collapse one day because of the shock. As such, he couldn’t wait to separate from Ye Qing Huan as soon as possible.
But now she was saying that she was planning to see him again and she was planning on doing it soon…
There was an awkward look on Lin Fan’s face as he said, “There’s no need to rush these things. I’m sure that you’re busy with your matters in the Heavenly Demon Sect.”
Ye Qing Huan didn’t seem offended to hear this.
All she did was reveal a teasing smile as she said, “What? Do you not want to see me again?”
Lin Fan was caught off guard hearing this, but he shook his head and said, “It’s not that. I’m sure that the Heavenly Demon Sect will want to know what happened, but…you know what happened. So I’m sure that they will be suspicious of you during this time.”
This was his sincere worry for her.
After all, she could be considered his woman even if he was afraid of her to a certain extent. Since she was his woman, he would naturally care about her.
Though he was scared of her and didn’t want to be around her as much, that didn’t mean that he was completely heartless towards her.
If Ye Qing Huan could be a bit more tamed…then he wouldn’t mind keeping her by his side.
It was just that Ye Qing Huan couldn’t be tamed that easily and she had the status as a disciple of the Heavenly Demon Sect, so naturally she wasn’t easy to keep around. At the very least, she wasn’t easy to keep around as long as he didn’t become stronger.
Perhaps she could stay by his side when he became a powerful expert in the future, but now was not the time.
There was a faint blush that appeared on Ye Qing Huan’s face when she heard this which surprised Lin Fan, but then she said, “You don’t need to worry about the Heavenly Demon Sect side, I’ll take care of this matter.”
Lin Fan was even more surprised by the confident tone that she took, but seeing the expression on her face, he just slowly gave a nod.
With that, the two of them separated and headed off in their own direction.
Though for Ye Qing Huan, that meant watching over Lin Fan from above as he left Winding Stream Town.
As she floated there, there was a cloaked figure that appeared by her side.
The two of them silently watched Lin Fan leaving Winding Stream Town for a bit before Ye Qing Huan said, “Grandma Pan, I’ll have to trouble you to go back to the sect to report this matter.”
“He, he, the young miss really is impatient. Is there a need to go right away? I’m sure that the sect master will miss the young miss if she leaves for too long. The young miss should know how the old sect master acts when he misses the young miss.”
A smile appeared on Ye Qing Huan’s lips as she said, “Master is a bit too much sometimes. Not to mention, it hasn’t been that long since I’ve come out from the sect, I still haven’t had enough fun yet.”
There was a moment of silence before Grandma Pan said, “Is the young miss just looking to have fun or is there something else in your heart.”
Her words seemed to be stabbing right at the heart of the matter.
Ye Qing Huan puffed her cheeks out when she heard this before saying, “Grandma Pan, why are you teasing me like this?”
“He, he, it’s rare seeing the young miss act this way. I’ve watched you grow up and I’ve never seen you acting like this before.” Then after a pause, Grandma Pan said in a teasing voice, “It’s very cute seeing the young miss act like a girl in love.”
Ye Qing Huan puffed her cheeks out even more before saying, “I’ll get angry if you keep teasing me.”
“The young miss will be cute just the same.” Grandma Pan said without any hesitation.
The relationship between the two was clearly good that they were able to go tit for tat like this. There didn’t seem to be any formality between them as they went back and forth.
Eventually, Ye Qing Huan said, “Anyway, this is important. I have to make a trip to his place.” Then in a more serious voice, “I have to give him his reward from the sect after all.”
Grandma Pan didn’t answer right away, but she still said, “Do you want to draw him to the Heavenly Demon Sect?”
Ye Qing Huan didn’t answer right away either, but she eventually said with a nod, “The things that he did when we went for the Divine Blood Fruit were things that no normal cultivator would be able to do, whether they are from a righteous sect or a demonic sect. He’s clearly someone with great talent and someone who will go far in the future, so we should pull him in as soon as possible.”
Grandma Pan slowly nodded in agreement, but she still said in a hesitant voice, “Only it doesn’t seem like he’s all that interested in coming to the Heavenly Demon Sect. It seems that he has other things that he cares about that he can’t leave.”
She took out a piece of paper before saying, “That old blood palm tried getting him to come to the Heavenly Demon Sect with him, but he was turned down in the end. It seems that he has some ideas of his own.”
Ye Qing Huan gave a slow nod as she said, “Of course he has his own ideas, how else would he be able to reach his current position? But that doesn’t mean that there isn’t a future where he eventually comes to the Heavenly Demon Sect. The Heavenly Demon Sect represents the peak of cultivation on this continent, so he will have to come to the Heavenly Demon Sect sooner or later, especially since none of the other four sects will take him. So all we have to do is guide him along until he comes to the Heavenly Demon Sect.”
Grandma Pan was silent for a bit before slowly nodding in agreement.
Then with a sigh, Grandma Pan said, “Young miss, I hope that you remember your position and won’t take things too far. You should know that the situation is very tense right now and if you take things too far…”
Ye Qing Huan turned to Grandma Pan with a smile and said, “Grandma Pan, when have I taken things too far?”
Grandma Pan gave another sigh before shaking her head without answering.
