Heading for Star Dou Forest

Lin Fan thumped his chest and made a solemn promise.

"You?"

Pfft!

Ning Rongrong couldn't hold back and burst out laughing!

In her eyes, Lin Fan was only twelve or thirteen years old. He'd be doing well if his Soul Power Level had reached 20, and he might even be weaker than her. And yet he wanted to teach her and be her teacher?

"Come with me. In five minutes, I'll make you willing to stay!"

After dropping those words, Lin Fan headed straight outside with Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing.

"I'd like to see what gives you such confidence!"

Ning Rongrong snorted and followed without the slightest hesitation!

The four of them eventually arrived at the little garden behind the hotel. Since it was early in the morning, there was no one else there.

"I'm warning you: don't you dare try anything with me, or you'll face consequences you can't handle!"

Ning Rongrong warned Lin Fan, clearly thinking he'd brought her here with ulterior motives.

"Heh. Is my strength enough to qualify me to be your teacher?"

Lin Fan didn't waste words. He stomped his foot, and terrifying Soul Power surged from his body!

With a dragon's roar, the Primordial Ancestral Dragon appeared behind him!

At that instant, Ning Rongrong felt the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda inside her tremble. It was fear that came from the depths of her soul!

What shocked her even more were the Soul Rings lighting up one after another beneath Lin Fan's feet!

"Purple, purple, purple, black, black, red?! Th-this... how is this possible?!"

Ning Rongrong's mouth gaped so wide, she could have stuffed a huge carrot inside!

She was so shocked that words couldn't describe it!

The young man before her was about her age, yet he had already reached level 60, the Soul Emperor rank!

Of course, even more terrifying were those six Soul Rings. They were all a thousand years old or more, starting from the First Soul Ring. It simply defied common sense!

And the last Soul Ring was actually a hundred thousand years old!

If she hadn't felt the Soul Power radiating from Lin Fan and the fear it inspired in her, Ning Rongrong would have thought she was seeing things!

Not even Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, the strongest members of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, possessed a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring. Yet one had appeared as the Sixth Soul Ring of a teenager. Ning Rongrong felt as if she were dreaming!

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Ning Rongrong stared blankly ahead, repeating those words over and over.

"Stop lying to yourself. Everything you saw was real, and you know that for certain, don't you?!"

Lin Fan put away his Martial Soul and Soul Rings, then walked toward her with a smile.

"Y-you... who exactly are you?"

Ning Rongrong came back to her senses and stared at Lin Fan, her expression complicated.

"My name is Lin Fan, your future husband..."

Lin Fan shamelessly answered, but Ning Rongrong's expression didn't change. She was still immersed in the shock of what she'd just seen.

"If you stay here, I guarantee that within half a year, I'll raise your Soul Power by at least five levels!"

Lin Fan promised Ning Rongrong. He was confident he could win the girl over within half a year. By then, raising her strength would take only one night!

"I... why should I believe you?! Even if your strength and Soul Rings are that outrageous, that's only true of you!"

Ning Rongrong hesitated before voicing her doubts. But after seeing the Soul Power and Soul Rings released by Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing, she fell silent!

Both girls were about her age. Xiao Wu already had three Soul Rings, and although Zhu Zhuqing had only two, the Soul Power radiating from her was already above level 30!

"Fine, I can stay. But if you can't raise my Soul Power by five levels in half a year, not only will I leave, I'll find someone to teach you a lesson!"

"And could you all keep it down at night? Don't disturb my sleep!"

Ning Rongrong stated her conditions.

"Uh... all right. I'll try to be quieter."

Lin Fan awkwardly scratched his head and agreed.

Ning Rongrong stayed after that, living with Lin Fan and the others at the Rose Hotel!

"Lin Fan, you liar! Are you trying to fool me?"

That day, Ning Rongrong came storming over and glared at Lin Fan as she demanded an answer!

Nearly half a month had passed, and the four of them had spent their days eating and drinking at the hotel. Lin Fan hadn't given her much guidance about Soul Power at all!

"Rongrong, how could I dare lie to you? Look, Xiao Wu and Zhuqing have both gotten stronger, haven't they?"

Lin Fan hurriedly explained.

Ning Rongrong was curious about that too. The four of them had practically been inseparable during this time, and most days they'd spent eating, drinking, and having fun!

Why had her own Soul Power barely improved, while Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing had each gained another level?

"I get it now! You've been giving them extra lessons every night, haven't you? Playing favorites!"

A moment later, Ning Rongrong suddenly understood. She pointed at Lin Fan's nose as she accused him.

"Uh... I have been giving them some extra attention..."

Lin Fan looked a little embarrassed. Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing were already his wives, so their nightly cultivation together was a must!

Thanks to Lin Fan's system and his constitution, sleeping with beautiful women was the best way for him to cultivate. At the same time, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing benefited too!

"Hmph, I knew it! If they get special treatment, then I want it too. If you won't give it to me, I'm leaving right now!"

Ning Rongrong planted her hands on her hips, her little face flushed with anger!

Chapter 28: Heading for Star Dou Forest

She'd stayed in the first place only because Lin Fan had promised to raise her strength by five levels in half a year. She hadn't expected the guy to hold back and not give her his full attention when teaching her to cultivate!

"Uh... if you want it, I've got plenty to give. I can offer it to you, but whether you take it is up to you..."

Lin Fan looked at Ning Rongrong with a strange expression.

At Lin Fan's meaningful look, Zhu Zhuqing stepped forward, her pretty face blushing, and whispered something in Ning Rongrong's ear.

"Aah... you... that's so disgusting! How could anyone cultivate like that? I don't believe you!"

Ning Rongrong had always been spoiled and willful, but when it came to men and women, she was as innocent as a blank sheet of paper. After hearing Zhu Zhuqing explain the method of cultivation, even the tips of her ears turned red, and her fair skin looked as if it might drip blood!

"Rongrong, what Zhuqing said is true. We have no reason to lie to you!"

"Besides that method, nobody could help us raise our Soul Power by a level in such a short time!"

Xiao Wu walked over and took Ning Rongrong's hand as she spoke.

After half a month together, the three girls had become friends. Although Ning Rongrong was usually arrogant and domineering, she wasn't bad at heart, and she sincerely wanted to be friends with Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing.

"But do I really have to do something so disgusting...? Even if I wanted to... no, I don't want to! You stinking man, I could never fall for you!"

Ning Rongrong blushed and glared fiercely at Lin Fan!

She'd been the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect since childhood, the center of attention wherever she went, and the object of everyone's admiration!

Lin Fan might have been worthy of her in terms of cultivation talent and looks, but he was too much of a playboy. Deep down, Ning Rongrong couldn't accept sharing her man with other women!

Even if she agreed, her father and her two grandfathers wouldn't!

"Actually, we'd make about as much progress cultivating on our own as we would at the academy. I'm already at level 33, and I still haven't gotten my Third Soul Ring."

"Husband, how about we go to the Star Dou Forest together? We can get Soul Rings and treat it as training at the same time."

Zhu Zhuqing turned to Lin Fan.

"Mm, Zhuqing's right. Actual combat is the best way to improve your strength. Get a good night's rest—we'll set out tomorrow!"

Lin Fan thought it over and agreed. The Star Dou Forest was full of danger, but as long as they stayed near the outskirts, nothing should happen!

After all, Lin Fan had already reached the Soul Emperor rank. With his combat strength, he could fight even a Soul Saint!

What's more, Golden Crocodile Douluo, who was level 98, was secretly protecting them from behind. Lin Fan had no need to worry about his own safety or that of his wives!

After dinner, Lin Fan led Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu back to the hotel. The moment they entered, the guy started getting handsy!

"Bad guy, we're going to the Star Dou Forest tomorrow. Let's get a good night's rest!"

Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing pushed Lin Fan away, their faces full of bashful smiles.

"Exactly. There are plenty of Soul Beasts there, and we might even end up in a big battle! So before that battle, we'd better have one of our own to warm up!"

As Lin Fan finished speaking, he pounced on Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing like a hungry wolf, and the girls' cries immediately followed...

Early the next morning, Lin Fan led the three girls to a deserted spot on the outskirts of Suotuo City.

"Lin Fan, why did you bring us here? There's not a soul around in this godforsaken place, let alone a carriage!"

Ning Rongrong thought Lin Fan had tricked her again. Zhu Zhuqing beside her also looked at Lin Fan in confusion.

"Hehe, you just don't know about this yet. Your husband has a treasure that can take us straight up into the sky!"

Xiao Wu said with a giggle.

"A treasure?!"

Zhu Zhuqing knew that word all too well, because Lin Fan had told her more than once, "Let me show you my treasure!"

While the two girls stood there, stunned, Lin Fan had already brought out the helicopter and boarded it with Xiao Wu.

"Come on!"

Hearing Lin Fan call to them, Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong followed with puzzled looks.

"Buckle up!"

Lin Fan told them, then poured his Soul Power into the crystal disc. Under his control, the helicopter slowly rose into the air, quickly climbing several hundred meters!

"Wow, it really can fly!"

As the scenery below grew smaller and smaller, Ning Rongrong's earlier confusion turned to excitement. She gazed at the view outside the window!

"My husband really is amazing. He has so many treasures. Not only can he make me soar to heaven with pleasure, he can even make me fly through the sky!"

Zhu Zhuqing was thrilled too, she thought.

The helicopter was incredibly fast, and before long it had reached the Star Dou Forest.

Lin Fan didn't rush to land. He hovered at a certain height, then took out several binoculars and handed them to Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ning Rongrong.

It was far more convenient to search for suitable Soul Beasts from the sky than from the ground!

"Husband, your treasure's amazing! Even things so far away look like they're right in front of me!"

The many novel things Lin Fan brought out left the three girls full of wonder.

"Don't worry, I've got plenty of treasures. You'll have lots of chances to see them in the future."

Lin Fan said with a smile.

"Husband, there's a Phantom Civet down there!"

Zhu Zhuqing suddenly pointed below and cried out.

Lin Fan followed the direction she was pointing and indeed spotted a pitch-black, winged feline!

The Phantom Civet wasn't very large, measuring only half a meter long. It had a pair of wings on its back. Although they were somewhat underdeveloped and couldn't sustain long flights, they greatly enhanced the Phantom Civet's speed!

Combined with its sharp claws, which were over ten centimeters long, and its fangs, it was an excellent hunter in the Star Dou Forest!

Zhu Zhuqing's Martial Soul was the Hell Spirit Cat. The Phantom Civet's speed and piercing attacks were both an exceptionally good match for her. It was also around two thousand years old, making it an ideal Third Soul Ring for Zhu Zhuqing!

"Don't worry, leave it to your husband!"

Lin Fan smiled slightly, took out the AWM he'd bought earlier, and slowly aimed at the prey below!

Bang!

At the sound of the gunshot, the Phantom Civet below collapsed, letting out a mournful cry!
