Lin Fan's Demise is Set

Jun Tianxiao tidied up his emotions and slowly walked forward. He gently patted Zhao Yun's shoulder and said with a benevolent expression:

"Zilong, you did nothing wrong, there's no need to apologize. This method is indeed a bit cruel."

"But desperate times call for desperate measures. Our current situation is extremely dangerous, and a single misstep could lead to our downfall."

"Only by rapidly improving our strength and influence can we preserve ourselves from the Duke of Wei's future revenge."

"So, go ahead and do it without hesitation. I'll back you up in everything."

Zhao Yun saw that Jun Tianxiao had no intention of punishing him as he had expected, and was even finding excuses for him everywhere.

Tears welled up in his eyes, and he exclaimed emotionally:

"Lord!"

Jun Tianxiao looked at the emotional Zhao Yun and was also moved. He couldn't help but respond:

"Zilong!"

"Lord!"

"Zilong!"

With heartfelt calls, the two couldn't help themselves and hugged each other tightly.

Never mind the two embracing in the Left Wei Guard's Council Hall.

At the Duke of Wei Mansion, the Imperial Guard's arrival with intelligence interrupted Mo Yunxuan and Meng Zhirou's intimacy.

Under Mo Yunxuan's murderous gaze, the Imperial Guard seemed to realize his recklessness.

Without saying a word, he pretended not to have seen anything, placed the intelligence down, and immediately left the pavilion.

Mo Yunxuan watched his retreating back, the dissatisfaction in his eyes lingering.

"Pfft, hahaha~"

Meng Zhirou didn't expect him to be so petty and burst into laughter.

But she still reached out her jade hand and said softly:

"Alright, let's focus on important matters first. I'll always be by your side, why rush this moment?"

Mo Yunxuan tilted his head, dodging her jade hand that was trying to stroke his head, and grabbed it instead.

He brought it to his lips and kissed it, startling her into retracting it.

With a light chuckle, Mo Yunxuan picked up the intelligence and began to read.

It clearly recorded Jun Tianxiao and Zhao Yun's actions and conversations.

After finishing, Mo Yunxuan looked up and gazed at the rockery not far away, appearing to be in a daze.

But in reality, a message had popped up from the System.

[Detected addable module. After adding the module, new functions can be unlocked.]

This sudden message made Mo Yunxuan somewhat frustrated.

Based on the information in the intelligence report, the new module was definitely related to the Military Tally that Zhao Yun had mentioned.

Although he was happy that the System could unlock new modules, couldn't it be more specific about the new functions?

Was it fun toying with his emotions like this?

Damn it, you useless System!

He closed his eyes and took several deep breaths, finally calming his emotions.

When he turned his head, he saw Meng Zhirou with tears welling up in her eyes, and he was puzzled.

"Zhirou, what's wrong?"

"Husband, I'm so glad you're alright."

With that, Meng Zhirou burrowed into Mo Yunxuan's embrace again, hugging his waist tightly, unwilling to let go.

After several more inquiries, Mo Yunxuan learned that she had seen his changing expression and thought something had happened to him, which caused her such worry.

If you can't find the book title, you can try searching for the author. Maybe they just changed their name!

At that moment, Mo Yunxuan felt nothing but moved and pity for this girl.

He slowly opened his arms, embracing the girl's back, and gently stroked her with one hand.

However, what he didn't see was the slight curve of the girl's lips and the narrowing of her eyes, like a little fox stealing food.

After a moment, Mo Yunxuan released his arms, straightened the girl, and had her sit beside him. He said softly:

"Zhirou, are there any interesting things happening at Taihua Academy?"

Hearing Mo Yunxuan's question, Meng Zhirou lowered her head and pondered for a moment. A look of undisguised annoyance appeared on her face:

"I haven't been paying much attention! But there's this male student who's been pestering me lately."

"Even when I told him I already have a husband, he kept bothering me. It's so annoying."

"The reason I came to see you this time, besides wanting to see you, was also to hide from this person. Maybe if he doesn't see me, he'll give up."

Mo Yunxuan's brow furrowed slightly, his voice chilling, "Oh? What's his name?"

"He's called Lin Fan."

"Hoh! Lin Fan! Is he the one who ruined the marriage alliance between the Anle Marquis Manor and the Li family?"

Mo Yunxuan's question seemed genuine, but he was absolutely certain it was the same person.

After all, he was a Child of Fortune; it would be strange if he didn't fawn over beautiful women.

He thought of Meng Qianxue, who was heroic and spirited in the barracks, and the current Meng Zhirou, a soft, obedient, and sweet-smelling loli.

It seemed that he and Lin Fan, or rather, the Children of Fortune, were destined to be incompatible.

Alas, he had originally intended to let you go, but since you provoked me, it's your fault.

Mo Yunxuan believed no man could stand by while his woman was coveted by outsiders.

He was naturally the same, and because he held a high position and great power in this life, his previously hidden domineering nature would occasionally surface.

However, he was ultimately a merciful person and couldn't bear to see Lin Fan suffer. A quick end with the blade would be much better.

With this thought, Mo Yunxuan's eyes turned dangerous, though he concealed it well when facing Meng Zhirou.

"You can stay with me this month. After a month, I'll take you to resolve this matter."

Although she didn't know why they had to wait a month, Meng Zhirou obediently nodded.

It wasn't that she couldn't figure it out, but she felt there was no need to. Wasn't it better to leave everything to Mo Yunxuan?

Since she was already his wife, she just needed to listen to her husband.

The reason Mo Yunxuan delayed for a month was simple: insufficient strength.

Currently, the Wei State Duke Mansion had many Nascent Soul Realm and Spirit Transformation Realm cultivators, enough to crush Taihua Academy.

But the Dean of Taihua Academy was a Void Refinement Realm expert, with two Early Void Refining Realm Vice Deans below him.

With the Child of Fortune's capabilities, he would inevitably interact with one of them and gain their favor.

If he went to trouble Lin Fan now, he couldn't bring too many troops.

Otherwise, surrounding Taihua Academy with a large army could indeed suppress Void Refinement Realm experts, but it might also be seen as a provocation to the Empress.

With the current strength of the Wei State Duke Mansion, the Empress would be wary but not intimidated.

If she truly decided to suppress him, he wouldn't have many good options.

And if he brought too few people, the Wei State Duke Mansion, without Void Refinement Realm experts, would truly be in a precarious position. Facing Lin Fan, who had the backing of a Vice Dean or the Dean of the Void Refinement Realm, it was uncertain who would be the one causing trouble.

After a month, no, not even a month, he would be able to make the entire Elite Vanguard reach the Spirit Transformation Realm, or even cultivate several Void Refinement Realm experts. It wasn't impossible.

By then, even the Body Integration Realm Empress wouldn't dare to toy with the Wei State Duke Mansion as she pleased.

Let alone a mere Taihua Academy. Besides, he was actually a reasonable person.

At most, he would bring Meng Zhirou to the entrance of the academy, unfurl a banner, and have a good talk with Lin Fan.

Let him know what it meant to win people over with virtue, and see what the old geezers at Taihua Academy had to say.

If Taihua Academy still sided with Lin Fan then, he wouldn't be blamed for drawing his blade.
