Spreading the Word (2)

"There are plenty of good men in the world, but I'm not a good man, I'm a pirate. Don't ruin your future," Fanxin immediately advised. He couldn't stand seeing women cry; it made him panic.

"Hmph, who would want you?" The beautiful reporter scoffed, but her eyes were red and tears were welling up in them, clearly indicating that she wasn't telling the truth.

"That's great." Fanxin breathed a sigh of relief and quickly changed the subject, saying, "What brought you here? Are you here to interview someone?"

"Yes, I'm here to interview a wealthy man." The beautiful reporter gazed at Fanxin and said, "But I didn't expect to meet you here. You're my idol."

"Heh, don't idolize a pirate." Fanxin warned in a low voice, "Remember when Roger died? Everyone connected to him was arrested. I don't want you to get into trouble too."

Although he wouldn't die easily, he didn't want this beautiful girl to be implicated because of his identity.

Upon hearing this, the beautiful reporter trembled slightly, her pretty face paling slightly. She swallowed hard and said, "I... I understand."

"Okay, go ahead. Try not to tell anyone that you have a connection to me." Fanxin smiled slightly and waved her hand.

He got what he wanted and didn't want to get entangled with her anymore. She was clearly interested in him, and the longer he spent with her, the more complicated the relationship would become.

"Okay, goodbye, idol." The beautiful reporter stood up, took a few steps, then suddenly turned around and smiled slightly at Fanxin. Her smile was very sweet, like a blooming flower.

Fanxin waved goodbye to her.

After the girl left, Fanxin sat there drinking coffee, quietly pondering what to do next.

The Ghost Clan has already taken action there, making the treasure site look quite impressive, which has completely attracted the attention of all the pirates.

From the video, he even saw that the Navy was present and had taken a place, but they didn't make a move.

Although he didn't know why the Navy wasn't intervening, he understood that the Navy definitely wouldn't just stand by and watch.

"Most of the pirates have already gone, so the battlefield will definitely be there from now on. I'm relieved. Once I get to the Beast Kingdom, I can gather enough food and then head straight for the Holy Land." Fanxin habitually moved his thumb back and forth under his chin. After a while, he suddenly frowned, somewhat puzzled. "That's strange. Since the pirates have all gone, why aren't the Ghost Clan letting us through? What's their purpose?"

He couldn't understand the reason. In his mind, since the pirates' attention had already been attracted, they should open a gap and let everyone in, so that the curse could be broken.

However, the fact that the Ghost Clan showed the pirates the money but still kept them outside the gate is problematic.

"Ghost Clan? Ghost Clan?" Fanxin Xin muttered to himself, thinking about it, but he still couldn't figure out what those guys' true intentions were.

Shaking his head helplessly, Fanxin had no choice but to put it aside for the time being. He waved to the waiter, preparing to pay the bill. The waiter quickly came to the table, and Fanxin Xin immediately placed a wad of cash in her hand before getting up and walking outside.

In a few flashes, he was already at the door, only his voice echoing in the waiter's ears.

"Please settle the bill for me; the rest is your tip."

The waitress glanced at the bill on the table, then at the wad of cash in her hand, her pretty face lighting up with ecstatic joy. A few cups of coffee weren't enough, but Fanxin had given her a wad of cash; she'd really struck gold this time, enough for her first month's salary.

"Big spender." The waiter immediately labeled Fanxin as such, and she skipped over to the cashier to pay. She then unceremoniously stuffed the remaining money into her pocket.

After leaving the coffee shop, Fanxin walked along a path back to the hotel.

As soon as Fanxin returned to the hotel, he sensed something was amiss; a powerful Soul Power rippled through the room.

Fanxin clenched his fists, remaining vigilant. Although he knew the other party was from the Soul Clan, he didn't know whether they were friend or foe, so he couldn't be careless. The old man had told him that the Soul Clan was also rife with intricate connections.

His rise to become the young master of the Soul Clan likely fueled resentment among many. Furthermore, the fact that he wasn't yet a member of the main family only intensified their jealousy and hatred.

Therefore, he is highly likely to be targeted and assassinated by someone within the Soul Clan. He absolutely cannot afford to be careless.

"Who is it?" Fanxin asked as she closed the door and walked away.

"Wow, not bad at sensing things!" A clear, sweet laugh rang out, and then a figure slowly emerged from the wall. It was a girl wearing a white off-shoulder dress, with a delicate oval face, a voluptuous and alluring figure, a slender waist, and white ankle boots. All these elements combined to create a stunning beauty.

As soon as she appeared, she fluttered over like a white butterfly and landed in front of Fanxin. Her jade-like hands circled around Fanxin's neck, and she simply hung on his chest.

Fanxin frowned slightly, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "Let go, this isn't right."

"What's wrong with that? You wouldn't even take a beautiful woman who's practically throwing herself at you?" The woman in the white dress smiled slightly, a hint of mockery on her face.

Fanxin waved his hand and said, "I'm married, and I won't have any improper thoughts about other women. Okay, stop bothering me, just say what you need to say."

The beautiful woman in the white dress ran towards him, pulling out her trump card: to charm and win over the arrogant man.

However, seeing Fanxin's cold and aloof attitude, she immediately gave up. She snorted slightly, quite dissatisfied. She was such a charming person, yet he didn't even glance at her. This deeply hurt her.

"Alright, just say what you have to say." Fanxin ignored her, walked straight to the sofa, sat down, poured herself a glass of red wine, and started watching TV while she drank it.

The woman in the white dress trembled slightly with anger; this man completely disregarded her. She angrily sat down opposite Fanxin, deliberately blocking the television screen, a smug look on her face.

Fanxin was speechless. Was this some kind of revenge? After thinking for a moment, he immediately released Ren Fang. Ren Fang, dressed casually, brought a youthful and lively atmosphere to the room as soon as she appeared.

With her hands in her pockets, she stared blankly at the beautiful woman in the white dress in front of her, then at Fanxin, her brows furrowing slightly as she asked, puzzled, "Honey, who is she?"

"You have a small world?" Before Fanxin could speak, the woman in the white dress spoke first. She stared blankly at Fanxin, not coming back to her senses for a long time.

She had heard of the Small World before, but had never used it. She never expected that Fanxin would have one.

"That's right, this comes with my body." Fanxin looked at Ren Fang and said, "She's from my Soul Clan, but I don't know who she is." After saying that, he blinked.

Having been married for many years, Ren Fang was very familiar with Fanxin's every move. His wink just now actually meant he wanted her to win over the woman in the white dress. She smiled slightly and said, "You've been having a lot of luck with women lately."

"Romantic luck?" Fanxin looked innocent, gave an awkward laugh, and said, "I don't like anyone, but that doesn't stop others from liking me. Or, could you make me look uglier?"

"Go to hell." Ren Fang rolled her eyes, then looked at the woman in the white dress and said, "Who are you? I'm his wife Ren Fang."

As she spoke, she generously extended her hand, ready to shake hands with the woman in the white dress.

The woman in the white dress didn't want to shake hands, but for some reason, she was drawn to Ren Fang's calm expression. That expression seemed to possess a magical power, compelling her to extend her hand and shake Ren Fang's. She even revealed her name, "My name is Bai Xue."

"Bai Xue." Fanxin looked her over and thought to herself, "She really suits you. She's all white, even her skin is like snow."

"What are you doing here?" Ren Fang released the other person's hand, sat down leaning against Fanxin, and asked with a smile.

Fanxin said nothing, quietly drinking his wine.

Bai Xue glared at Fanxin before saying, "I, the Feng Clan Chief, have come specifically to tell Fanxin something: the Heavenly Star Alliance is about to make their move against you."

"The Heavenly Star Alliance?" Fanxin was somewhat taken aback, frowning as he asked, "They still haven't given up?"

"Hehe, of course they won't give up. You ruined their plans." Bai Xue smiled with a hint of schadenfreude, her two beautiful, snow-white legs crossed and swaying back and forth, dazzling to behold. Her slightly swaying collarbones added to her allure.

Fanxin glanced at them a few times, then looked away. He muttered in dissatisfaction, "Damn it, a bunch of persistent bastards. This time, I absolutely cannot let them go."

The Heavenly Star Alliance has caused him a lot of trouble, and if he doesn't offer some compensation, they probably won't let it go so easily.

She didn't want these despicable guys to ruin things at the last minute.

"Hehe, yes, we absolutely can't let him go." Bai Xue waved her two small fists, looking like she wanted to stir up trouble.

"What are you getting so worked up about?" Fanxin couldn't help but roll her eyes and said irritably.

"Hmph, can't I even smile?" Bai Xue stood up angrily, walked around the sofa, and headed towards the window.

Ren Fang thought she was going to jump off the building and hurriedly stood up, ready to persuade her. Fanxin Xin grabbed Ren Fang's small hand, gently pulled Ren Fang into her arms, and said, "Don't worry about her, even if she jumps, she won't die."

That's right. Bai Xue is a spirit, and spirits are so light that when they land on the ground, you don't feel anything at all.

"She..." Ren Fang paused, about to say something. Fanxin whispered a few words in her ear, and Ren Fang nodded in realization.

"Who's going to jump? Let me tell you, I'm not that desperate." Bai Xue trembled with anger. If she weren't outmatched by Fanxin, she probably would have already pounced on him and fought him to the Fanxin. In the Soul Clan, she was a beautiful flower, and countless men had their eyes on her.

However, Fanxin ignored her, which broke her heart.

"That would be great. But you didn't come all this way just to tell me this, did you?" Fanxin glanced at her and said, "If that's what it is, you didn't need to come. I can handle it."

The Heavenly Star Alliance is nothing; how could it possibly cause any trouble? He's not even afraid of the Navy, so why would he be afraid of a mere Heavenly Star Alliance?

"Hmph, that's not true." Bai Xue rummaged in her bosom for a while, pulled out a round ball, and hurled it hard at Fanxin.

Fanxin was taken aback, then turned to catch it in his hand, turned it over, examined it carefully, and frowned deeply.

It was just an ordinary black sphere, and he didn't know what it was. It was smooth to the touch, and he couldn't figure it out even after examining it for a long time. However, something sent by the Soul Clan was hardly an ordinary item.

He looked at it from left to right, but still couldn't figure it out. He sighed helplessly and asked, "What's the use of this thing?"

"Hehe, you don't know, do you!" Bai Xue smiled smugly, swaying her delicate body like a water snake as she floated to Fanxin's side, saying, "Call me 'sister,' and I'll tell you."

She tilted her head high, looking down at Fanxin, feeling extremely smug. She thought to herself, "This time I can finally get my lost face back."

"Big Mom, ma'am," Fanxin said with a smile, appearing very sincere.

"Big Mom...?" Bai Xue's expression froze instantly, her lips twitched slightly, and her eyes flashed with murderous intent as she spat out those words through gritted teeth.

She was furious, her heart and lungs were about to explode. She was young and beautiful, a super stunning beauty, how could she possibly be one of those middle-aged Big Mom? Are you blind?

Ren Fang bit her lip tightly, trying not to laugh. However, she couldn't help but burst out laughing, which made Bai Xue even angrier.

"Alright, sister, I was wrong, okay?" Fanxin called out sweetly. However, Bai Xue was in no mood for anything else; she was already furious.

"This thing can protect you; the clan leader told me to give it to you." Bai Xue put her hands on her hips and said angrily, "Don't think the Heavenly Star Alliance is easy to deal with. The Heavenly Star Alliance is our Soul Clan's mortal enemy."

"Hmm, mortal enemy? What's going on?" Fanxin sat up straight and listened quietly.

Bai Xue glared at Fanxin, but didn't beat around the Fanxin anymore, probably because she thought this matter was quite important. She said, "There are some powerful figures hiding in the Heavenly Star Alliance. They caused our Soul Clan a great loss in the past. Oh, by the way, the reason your father's lineage was destroyed was because they revealed the method to the Navy, allowing the Navy to conquer your family in one fell swoop."

"They did it?" Fanxin's face was full of anger, and his eyes flashed with cold light. Although his parents were safe, the rest of his clansmen were either dead or injured. His parents had no choice but to abandon him in the mountains and hadn't come to look for him for more than ten years. This made him very unhappy. At the time, he thought that the culprit was the navy, but he didn't expect that it was someone else.

"Tell me the whole story. I need to know the whole story." Fanxin stared intently at Bai Xue, his eyes as sharp as swords, making Bai Xue feel a chill run down her spine.
