My House Is Very Large. Why Don't You Move In?

Lin Fan's gaze fell on the little scarlet bird perched on Leng Yaozhu's shoulder. Sensing his attention, the Soul Spirit tilted its head and studied him curiously with its red eyes.

Sure enough, Soul Spirits possessed intelligence. At the very least, Lin Fan could clearly sense it in this bird's gaze.

Leng Yaozhu noticed where Lin Fan was looking and softly gave an order.

"Go."

The Soul Spirit spread its wings, fluttered lightly into the air, and landed in Lin Fan's outstretched palm.

Its claws touched his skin lightly, carrying a trace of warmth.

Ling Luochen's gaze also involuntarily followed the Soul Spirit to Lin Fan's hand. Looking at the little creature, she could not help murmuring.

"I have to say... it's pretty cute."

After a pause, as though she had thought of something, she asked.

"But since it can assist a Soul Master in battle, its combat strength can't be weak either, right?"

Leng Yaozhu smiled and nodded at that.

"Mm. It may look small, but it can grow much larger when it needs to fight. It also has soul skills and can help a Soul Master unleash soul skills. It's very impressive."

Ling Luochen nodded as well, a hint of envy flashing through her eyes.

Lin Fan, however, paid no attention to their conversation. He merely lowered his head and looked at the little bird in his palm.

Of course, he knew about Soul Spirits. He also knew that they had no direct use for him personally. After all, he was already a Titled Douluo, and his soul rings had long since been complete. A Soul Spirit could no longer provide him with a new soul ring.

But... for the Hidden Azure Pavilion, it was an entirely different matter.

If they could develop Soul Spirit Technology ahead of time, the Hidden Azure Pavilion could secure an immensely influential position in the world of Soul Masters.

And... if he could truly replicate Soul Spirit Technology, would his time ability be further strengthened as a result?

After all, the One-Word Battle Armor blueprints had already proven that as long as he came into contact with technology from ten thousand years in the future and successfully mastered it, his time ability would improve accordingly.

Then what about Soul Spirits?

If he could develop Soul Spirit Technology...

At that thought, Lin Fan's gaze toward Leng Yaozhu softened slightly.

He could not help sighing inwardly that Leng Yaozhu truly was his lucky koi.

Ever since meeting her, he had first awakened a Spatial Martial Soul, then obtained the One-Word Battle Armor blueprints, and now she had brought him Soul Spirit Technology.

Without her, who knew how long he would have remained stuck in place.

When Leng Yaozhu saw Lin Fan looking at her like that, a faint blush crept across her delicate face.

With Lin Fan's looks, there were truly few young women who could resist that kind of gaze.

What was more, Lin Fan was not merely handsome. He was also so talented, and his reputation as a genius was resounding.

If he were out in the wider world, a man like him would probably drive countless girls into a frenzy of pursuit, wouldn't he?

Standing beside them, Ling Luochen saw the subtle change in atmosphere between the two, and alarm bells immediately rang in her heart.

Sure enough... this was far from simple.

She unconsciously began comparing herself to Leng Yaozhu.

First of all, Leng Yaozhu was stronger than her. She was a level sixty-five Soul Emperor, while Ling Luochen was still a five-ring Soul King. Leng Yaozhu was even a little younger than her.

Ling Luochen had originally thought that, among people her age, she was already among the best of ordinary geniuses. As for someone even more outstanding, there was naturally Lin Fan, but he was a one-in-ten-thousand existence.

But Leng Yaozhu was different. She was also a genius, and an even more remarkable one than Ling Luochen.

Then...

Ling Luochen's gaze secretly drifted downward for a moment before swiftly pulling back.

In terms of her chest... she could not compare to Leng Yaozhu either.

And then there was Leng Yaozhu's hometown. Ling Luochen had no idea where it was, but it actually had something as extraordinary as Soul Spirits. Such a thing was revolutionary for Soul Masters, and for a research enthusiast like Lin Fan, it undoubtedly held enormous appeal.

By comparison, perhaps her only advantage was that she had known Lin Fan earlier.

And she still needed Lin Fan's help. She needed his guidance for her Self-Created Soul Skill, and she needed him to design her Battle Armor. She relied on him for everything.

Thinking of this, Ling Luochen quietly sighed to herself. She thought that she needed to grow stronger as quickly as possible.

At the very least... she could not keep standing behind Lin Fan like this.

It would be wonderful if she could find a way to evolve her ice-attribute Martial Soul into Ultimate Ice.

Her Martial Soul was clearly the ice element, yet she had never been able to attain Ultimate Ice. It left her extremely frustrated.

While Ling Luochen was thinking about all this, Lin Fan had already come back to his senses. He looked down at the little bird in his palm, then raised his head toward Leng Yaozhu and said.

"Researching this Soul Spirit will take quite a bit of time, and I'm not sure whether I can fully understand it."

After a pause, he asked again.

"Can your Soul Spirit... stay here with me?"

Leng Yaozhu could not help shaking her head when she heard that.

"No. My Soul Spirit can't be too far away from me."

Lin Fan nodded to show that he understood, then changed his question.

"Then... if you only summon it and don't use it in battle, how long can you keep it out?"

Leng Yaozhu thought for a moment before answering.

"If I only summon it and don't let it attack or expend energy in any other way, maintaining it for a full twenty-four hours shouldn't be a problem."

Lin Fan's eyes immediately lit up at that answer, and he said directly.

"Then in that case, stay here with me."

"I have spare rooms here. You can move in, and that way I can study your Soul Spirit whenever I want."

Leng Yaozhu froze on the spot. Her already flushed face instantly turned crimson, as though steam might burst from her head.

Huh?

Lin Fan was inviting her to live in his house?

They would not be sharing a room or a bed, but... a young man and woman living under the same roof was still enough to make people's imaginations run wild, wasn't it?

At that very moment, before the Light Screen ten thousand years later, Leng Yulai widened her eyes and abruptly stood up, speaking in utter disbelief.

"Th-This is way too bold, isn't it?!"

Looking at her sister within the Light Screen, she anxiously stamped her feet.

"Big Sister, don't agree to it!"

Meanwhile, the Leng Family head rubbed his chin as he watched the scene.

"Mm..."

"This Lin Fan... does have a bit of my style from back then."

He then began evaluating him to himself.

"Handsome, powerful, and talented. He's practically the perfect son-in-law candidate."

"If Yaozhu truly can't return, then Lin Fan will be her best home in that era."

The Leng Family head did not even say "perhaps," clearly having already made up his mind. Besides... judging from Lin Fan's conduct over the past month through the Light Screen, he could tell that Lin Fan was not a bad person. On the contrary, he had his own principles for doing things. Very good.
