Just as the Crazy Old Man was about to make a move, Wang Yao looked at him, her eyes full of warning.

"Your injuries haven't fully healed. With your current strength, you're no match for me. Are you sure you want to fight me?"

The Crazy Old Man frowned deeply. What Wang Yao said was indeed true, but looking at his poor apprentice, he couldn't just sit idly by.

Of course, that's not the main point, because he didn't think Wang Yao would hurt Jiang Fan; the main thing was...

"I've told you countless times, you Crazy Woman from the Wang Family, this disciple of mine isn't him. Aren't you afraid that if he really comes back in the future, you'll be letting him down?"

That's right, that's the reason. He was afraid that one day that person would come back and find out about Jiang Fan and Wang Yao's affair, and would feel that he had been cuckolded, and then he would expose Jiang Fan.

If that's really the case, his apprentice is being treated too unfairly and unjustly.

Hearing the Crazy Old Man speak up for him, Jiang Fan quickly chimed in, looking at Wang Yao and saying, "Yes, yes, I really didn't do it. Little Turtle, come out and say a few words for me."

He knew that the Little Turtle hated being mistaken for its owner, especially when Wang Yao was so affectionate towards it; that would make it even more prone to outbursts of temper.

However, after he finished speaking, there was still no movement in his pocket.

"Hey? Little Turtle? Lord Turtle! Are you mute? Or deaf?"

No matter how he called, the Little Turtle wouldn't show its head.

Seeing this, Wang Yao looked at Jiang Fan's pocket, her red lips curving upwards, her eyebrows and eyes curving like the crescent moon in the sky.

Xu Zhenyue, who was standing to the side, stared blankly at Wang Yao, his eyes wide like copper bells. It took him a long time to recover from his mental lapse and he immediately sent a telepathic message to the Crazy Old Man.

"This... this... this person seems to be the ancestor of the Wang Family, right?!"

The Crazy Old Man picked at his ear with his finger, then blew away the earwax stuck to his finger.

"Stop pretending, it is—it is."

"Hiss----" Xu Zhenyue gasped for breath, his eyes widening even further, almost popping out of their sockets.

"What, what's going on? How could she treat Jiang Fan, them..."

Xu Zhenyue was speechless for a moment. Looking at Wang Yao, who was clinging to Jiang Fan like an octopus, he felt awkward and strange no matter how he looked at her.

Honestly, even if the third spiritual energy revival were to occur, he wouldn't show this kind of expression.

"That Crazy Old Woman often goes crazy, just assume she's crazy."

The Crazy Old Man didn't know how to explain it for a moment. He couldn't very well tell Xu Zhenyue that Wang Yao had mistaken Jiang Fan for the Holy Lord of the Church of Justice, could he?

This is something you shouldn't say. If you really say it, the lie might end up seeming to become the truth.

If that's the case, then Jiang Fan will truly be in a situation where he can't clear his Yellow River no matter what.

The tug-of-war between Wang Yao and Jiang Fan did not end with their telepathic communication; in fact, it escalated to become increasingly inappropriate for children.

"Come, let me check if you're injured."

As she spoke, Wang Yao reached out to tear off Jiang Fan's clothes.

Lift it upwards.

grass!

After feeling a cool sensation on his stomach, Jiang Fan really wanted to kick Wang Yao away.

But Wang Yao was different; her smile was like a flower blooming in spring.

"Mmm, eight yuan, I'm so lucky, I really envy myself."

grass!

This is intolerable!

Jiang Fan couldn't hold back for even a second longer. He was ready to fight Wang Yao to the death, even though he knew he wouldn't win.

Just then, a fair hand reached out and grabbed Wang Yao 'Wang Yao wrist, preventing her from continuing her movements.

call--

Jiang Fan let out a long breath; he was so close to losing his innocence.

But upon turning around and seeing that aloof and ethereal face, a deep sense of surprise appeared in his eyes.

" Lan Shengxue?"

How could it be her?

Why would she come to the Southern Wilderness Fortress?

Hearing Jiang Fan call her name, Lan Shengxue nodded gently, a hint of tenderness appearing in her cool and aloof eyes. But when she looked at Wang Yao, her expression instantly turned icy.

Her red lips parted slightly, and her words were as cold as ice.

"Let go."

Wang Yao raised an eyebrow. "Who gave you the courage to provoke me?"

Immediately, an aged voice came from outside the door.

"It is I, the old man."

That voice—it sounds so familiar!

Not only did it sound familiar to Jiang Fan, but it also brought back a rather unforgettable memory.

The memory of being thrown away by the old man.

Turning her head, she saw Lan Mingxi's familiar face and pursed her lips. Sure enough, the answer was no surprise.

"So it's you. You little brat, don't think you're so old just because you're like my grandpa. If we're talking about seniority, you should call me 'Grandma.'" Wang Yao held her chin high, looking at Lan Mingxi with the demeanor of someone looking down on a junior.

Lan Mingxi stepped forward and stood behind her granddaughter to support her.

"Don't be like that. Calling you 'Grandma' makes you sound really old. How about we go down a generation and I call you 'Auntie'? Auntie? Auntie? Why aren't you answering? Oh, why is your face so dark?"

A few seconds later, Wang Yao and Lan Mingxi were fighting fiercely outside.

Jiang Fan looked up at the sky and asked the Crazy Old Man beside him, "Who will win between them?"

The Crazy Old Man rolled his eyes at him, " Wang Yao is a generation older than me, and Lan Shengxue's grandfather is my generation. Do you think Wang Yao has lived to such an old age for nothing?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Fan nodded. "That's true. Besides, she's the woman of the Holy Lord of the Church of Justice, so she must have received a lot of his teachings."

The Little Turtle in the pocket finally popped out, but the way it looked at Jiang Fan... well, it's hard to say.

The Crazy Old Man slapped Jiang Fan on the back of the head.

"Smack!" It was quite a loud sound.

"Holy crap! You Crazy Old Man, what's wrong with you all of a sudden? It hurts a lot, you know? You almost got a concussion."

The Little Turtle had somehow jumped onto Jiang Fan's shoulder, baring its teeth and gesturing wildly at the Crazy Old Man.

Ignoring the Little Turtle's erratic behavior, the Crazy Old Man said irritably, "You even know that Crazy Woman is that person's lover, and you're still so close to her. Aren't you afraid that when that person returns, he'll scatter you to ashes?"

"Which eye of yours saw me consenting? Didn't you see her use force? What kind of strength does she have? What kind of strength do I have? I'm older than all of you, even Lan Shengxue's grandfather wasn't a match for me. Facing her, I'm like a grasshopper in autumn, I can't even jump around, okay? Besides, didn't you see how hard I resisted just now? And you, you just stood by and watched her lift my clothes and take advantage of me. If Lan Shengxue hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid that Crazy Woman's saliva would have covered me!"

At this point, Jiang Fan cast a grateful glance at Lan Shengxue.

Lan Shengxue had actually known Wang Yao's true identity for a long time, but so what? She wasn't afraid at all.
