Her appearance was indeed extremely similar, practically identical.
But at this moment, Lin Fan noticed that the man’s eyes and aura were completely different from the Empress of the Heavens he had met that day—like night and day.
One was icy cold, as if everything was under complete control.
The other was sacred and noble, exuding an aura of majesty and authority.
At this moment, Lin Fan felt a chill rising from the soles of his feet straight to the top of his head.
He had truly messed up.
And while mistakes were usually nothing to worry about—after all, it was just a fight, and he hadn’t turned anyone into a vegetable—this time, things were different.
Originally, he had wanted to humiliate the person badly, which was why he had torn off their clothes. But now, the situation felt slightly off.
Stay calm, stay calm. No matter what, he was a seasoned veteran who never crashed—absolutely couldn’t crash here.
Even if he had made a mistake now, what could he do? The deed was already done.
“Ah, I mistook you for someone else. Put your clothes on quickly. It’s indecent to be exposed like this; it’s offensive to public morals,” Lin Fan stood there, not batting an eyelid.
The woman, whose clothes Lin Fan had torn off, glared at him with fury in her eyes. Wasn’t it him who had torn them? Yet she could only coldly say, “Could you at least turn around?”
Lin Fan slightly furrowed his brows. “Turn around? For what? Don’t worry, to me, you’re like air. The body is just a vessel. I’ve had countless women, and while you’re not bad, you’re nowhere near the type to stir my heart.”
His bragging was apocalyptic, capable of shaking the heavens and collapsing the seas—no one in the world could rival it.
The woman looked at Lin Fan, biting her red lips lightly, and finally managed to pull a long robe over herself with one hand.
But the moment she used one hand to do so, Lin Fan’s heart involuntarily trembled, and he couldn’t help but exclaim, “Damn… What a pair…”
Perfectly round and firm, two pink peaks, dazzling and blinding.
“Will you just getting it wrong be enough for you to settle this?” The woman looked at Lin Fan, filled with resentment.
She had been reborn multiple times, but never had she endured such humiliation.
Without a proper resolution, she simply couldn’t accept it.
Lin Fan’s heart quivered. He knew women could be petty, and although this woman was the strongest he had ever seen—her cultivation had condensed a full seventy chains of laws—she was still a woman. At this moment, she would definitely hold a grudge and seek retribution.
But he hated such things the most. He had no time to deal with this nonsense.
“So what do you want? I asked if you were the Empress, and you didn’t even answer. Year after year, countless people have been mistaken by me and beaten up by me. I’ve never seen anyone as stubbornly persistent and nagging as you.”
Lin Fan folded his hands behind his back, speaking with an air of complete indifference.
“You…,” the woman had never seen such a shamelessly arrogant person before. She wanted to ask, “Did you even give me a chance to speak?”
“What do you mean ‘you’? So what if I made a mistake? You sent people to Xuan Sword Pavilion intending to destroy it. I’m already being considerate by speaking to you like this instead of taking your life. Don’t get too carried away,” Lin Fan said. He might not have had much experience with women, but he had seen enough to know how to handle situations like this.
No matter what, he had to suppress her from the start, or else she might really think that beauty alone could rule the heavens.
At this moment, the woman was nearly furious. That noble demeanor could no longer conceal her inner rage. The wound on her back still throbbed painfully, vivid and shocking.
Now it sounded like she should be thanking him?
“When did I ever say I wanted to destroy Xuan Sword Pavilion?” The woman asked, barely holding back her anger.
At this moment, Lin Fan directly raised his hand to stop her from speaking. “Enough. Whether you destroy it or not is none of my business. But if you dare to lay a hand on it, that will be your death sentence.”
“You… you shouldn’t be so arrogant. No one has ever dared to speak to me like this,” the woman finally snapped.
“Don’t waste my time with nonsense. If you’re not satisfied, fight me. I’m always ready. No one has ever acted high and mighty in front of me and survived. You should feel lucky to be the first,” Lin Fan stared at her directly, overpowering her at every turn.
“You…” The woman clutched her chest, anger boiling inside her with nowhere to go. She clenched her teeth, and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
“Hmph, don’t try to play the victim with me. I’ve already said you’re not beautiful enough to move me to pity,” Lin Fan turned his sleeve dismissively, his expression full of disdain.
“You… you…” The woman was so angry her face turned red, her finger pointing at Lin Fan, unable to utter a single word.
“Alright, you can leave now. I’ll spare your life today. Just remember to behave yourself in the future. Even though you’ve condensed seventy chains of laws, I could still kill you in one move,” Lin Fan said calmly.
The woman felt as if all her previous composure had shattered before this man. She even felt the urge to bite him to death.
“Fine. I just want to ask, why do you have the aura of the ancient on you?” She took a deep breath and asked.
Lin Fan’s heart tightened. This was the first time anyone had sensed the ancient aura of his “Ancient Arm.” It piqued his curiosity a little.
“What’s it to you?” Lin Fan replied sharply. Right now, he just wanted this woman to leave.
This day had already been too much of a headache.
A misunderstanding had led to an unexpected embrace and even an adopted son.
Such a situation would be annoying for anyone.
Although Xuan Yunxian was extremely beautiful—even comparable to the woman before him—they each had their own unique charm. But for Lin Fan, any relationship required some emotional foundation.
Otherwise, during more intimate moments, due to insufficient experience, he wouldn’t be able to explore new positions, which would be boring.
“Can you just speak properly? This concerns the future of the entire Xuanhuang World,” the woman said, suppressing her anger.
“What’s it to you?”
“You’re being too arrogant…” the woman was furious again.
“What’s it to you?”
“You…” Before she could even speak, Lin Fan cut her off again.
“What’s it to you?”
“Spit…” The woman was so enraged by Lin Fan’s repeated “What’s it to you?” that she spat out a mouthful of blood. When had anyone dared to be so disrespectful to her?
“Fine. I’ll just tell you one thing: don’t think having the ancient power is a good thing. You’ll regret it someday. I won’t come to Xuan Sword Pavilion again. I only hope that when we meet next time, you’ll still be this carefree.” She stared at Lin Fan, then tore open a rift in space, preparing to leave.
“Your chest is uneven. You should take better care of it.”
“Spit… spit…”
As the spatial rift began to close, Lin Fan saw the woman spit out several mouthfuls of blood, swaying unsteadily, as if she might collapse at any moment.
At this moment, Lin Fan flicked his sleeve, slightly raised his head, gazed at the void, and sighed helplessly.
In ancient times, Zhuge Liang scolded an old villain to death. Today, Lin Fan’s “What’s it to you?” drove a woman to spit three mouthfuls of blood.
No enemy could stand before him without being reduced to dust.
Finally, she was gone…
After the woman left, Lin Fan faintly smiled, though he still couldn’t understand why this woman looked so much like the Empress. Was it a coincidence or the will of heaven?
Also, what did she mean by saying having the ancient power wasn’t a good thing?
The reason the Saint Demon Sect was destroyed was because of that single drop of Celestial Blood.
Although that drop had already merged into his blood, its true power remained unknown.
Although he knew the ancient power wasn’t something trivial, after being refined by the “Heavenly Furnace,” it should be manageable.
Still, Lin Fan felt he needed to focus on cultivating and strengthening himself as a priority. Everything else could wait.
Only when he became powerful enough could he crush all enemies beneath his feet.
