When Lin Fan spoke these words, the heavens and earth suddenly fell silent.
His heart was pounding with anxiety. Sometimes, telling the truth was indeed stressful, especially when facing someone as powerful as the Frost Sovereign. At his current strength, he was no match for her.
The Frost Sovereign was taken aback, and her peerless, beautiful face abruptly changed expression.
“What did you say?” she asked coldly, her voice like a frigid frost sweeping across thousands of miles, even more chilling than before. She hadn’t expected this native to dare speak to her in such a manner.
Lin Fan now felt helpless. Truthfully, he hadn’t wanted to say anything, but no matter whom he blamed, the Frost Sovereign wouldn’t believe him. He had tried to shift the blame to the future Boundless King Buddha, yet she had immediately shut that down with a single sentence.
The Boundless King Buddha wouldn’t dare?
Upon hearing this, Lin Fan felt even more helpless. If the Boundless King Buddha ever found out, he would surely prove his courage, even if it meant death—after all, no man could tolerate being called a coward.
Lin Fan took a deep breath and stared directly at the Frost Sovereign. “I said it: Water Sovereign was killed by me.”
Internally, he felt nervous. Once he admitted this, would the Frost Sovereign kill him? But in his opinion, she probably wouldn’t. She had sworn an oath, and it had already taken effect. If she tried to suppress him, her divine core would definitely shatter.
The Frost Sovereign’s expression kept changing, her icy aura intensifying. She stared at Lin Fan and said, “You…”
Lin Fan felt an immense killing intent radiating from her, as if she truly wished to slay him. Yet, as if recalling something, she refrained from acting immediately.
Lin Fan cautiously asked, “You’ve sworn an oath. I hope you will keep your word.”
The Frost Sovereign closed her eyes and inhaled deeply before opening them again. “I will honor my oath. I won’t kill you today. Leave now.”
Lin Fan exhaled in relief and immediately flew away. The Frost Sovereign was too dangerous. This trip to the northern lands had not been in vain—it had revealed that there were Sovereigns like her in the Moon Shadow Continent. If he hadn’t known beforehand, challenging the Sovereigns of the Moon Shadow Continent in the future might have led to his death due to underestimating them.
However, to his shock, the Frost Sovereign also moved, following closely behind him.
Lin Fan stopped and said, “Could it be that we’re heading the same way, Frost Sovereign? Why don’t you go first, and I’ll choose another path?”
His worst fear had come true, yet he remained calm as he spoke.
The Frost Sovereign looked at Lin Fan. “I swore I wouldn’t kill you today and would let you leave the northern lands. But tomorrow, your life ends. I’m merely following you, not breaking my oath.”
“What the…”
This was exactly what Lin Fan feared most. Initially, the oath had seemed normal, but after she swore it, he realized there was a major loophole.
She wouldn’t kill him today, but with her power, following him and waiting until tomorrow to kill him was perfectly acceptable.
Lin Fan said helplessly, “You can’t do this! You’re breaking your promise.”
The Frost Sovereign glared at Lin Fan, chuckled coldly, and said nothing more.
Given the Frost Sovereign’s strength, there was no way Lin Fan could shake her off.
At this moment, Lin Fan felt his heart sink. The Frost Sovereign was neither foolish nor naive. Perhaps from the beginning, she had planned to kill him.
Lin Fan realized the danger of the situation. He had to shake her off, or the consequences would be unimaginable.
“Frost Sovereign, you can’t do this! You promised to let me leave, but now you’re following me. That’s just cheating,” Lin Fan said, hoping to shame her into leaving.
The Frost Sovereign didn’t utter a single word, merely watching him silently.
Lin Fan shook his head and immediately entered the void, fleeing at full speed.
No matter how fast he flew, the Frost Sovereign remained nearby, leaving Lin Fan stunned. Her power was far superior, but this was just unfair.
“What the hell, I have no choice but to try my best.”
“Great Power of Da Fange!”
At that moment, the Great Power of Da Fange erupted violently, enveloping the heavens and earth. The Frost Sovereign slightly frowned, and the coldness around her intensified. Lin Fan noticed that his Da Fange energy was beginning to freeze, unable to approach the Frost Sovereign.
“What? It didn’t work!”
Could it really come down to using the soap?
But he wasn’t even sure if the soap would work on the Frost Sovereign.
The Frost Sovereign’s power was far beyond that of the Boundless King Buddha. Killing her might significantly boost his strength.
Without hesitation, Lin Fan took out the soap and looked at the Frost Sovereign. “Will you leave or not? Do you even know what I’m holding?”
The Frost Sovereign didn’t speak or show any fear or tension, as if she didn’t even consider Lin Fan a threat.
“Damn it!”
He had taken out the “Lin Brand Soap,” yet the Frost Sovereign didn’t even blink, completely ignoring it. This was unbearable.
Lin Fan pondered for a moment. If he could trick the Frost Sovereign with the soap, it would be worth it. The experience gained would be immense, and even if he encountered the Boundless King Buddha, he would have the strength to face him, perhaps even kill him.
Without hesitation, Lin Fan said, “Soap, go!”
He threw the soap directly at her.
Normally, the Frost Sovereign would pick it up, slip, and drop it. But suddenly, Lin Fan froze.
After he threw the soap, the Frost Sovereign didn’t even move, and a system prompt suddenly sounded.
“The Lin Brand Soap cannot be used on females. This is an item for male friends…”
Upon hearing the system’s prompt, Lin Fan was completely stunned. Was this seriously how unfair it could be? The soap was utterly useless against the Frost Sovereign. How was he supposed to escape now?
The soap flew back into Lin Fan’s hand. He awkwardly smiled and put it away.
At this moment, an idea struck him. His eyes lit up. Right, he had a plan.
“Frost Sovereign, you swore not to kill me today, but I never made such a promise. If you dare to kill me while I attack, you will break your oath.”
Lin Fan laughed loudly and clenched his fists.
He was preparing to use the “World-Turning Technique” to transform the Frost Sovereign into a male, causing her immense pain and incapacitating her. Even if it didn’t incapacitate her, he still had the soap as a backup.
After thinking of this plan, Lin Fan smiled.
He had this under control!
