Having failed to get Xiao Fan to act and been scolded instead, Lin Xianhuo looked embarrassed.
But she had always had a ruthless streak in her bones, as anyone could tell from her earlier fight with Fire Sparrow.
So she decided to start taking injuries and force Xiao Fan to act!
But how could she possibly outplay Xiao Fan?
When it came to being shameless, Xiao Fan considered himself second to none!
He could tell that if Lin Xianhuo kept fighting like this, she would definitely get hurt. If a fair-skinned beauty like her started bleeding, it wouldn't be a pretty sight!
Suddenly, Xiao Fan turned to Shao Yan and gazed at her with such tender affection that she broke out in goosebumps all over.
"Xiao Fan, you... what's wrong?"
Shao Yan was a little nervous, but Xiao Fan shook his head.
And just as Lin Xianhuo looked their way, Xiao Fan suddenly made as if to kiss Shao Yan!
Well, that did it!
Lin Xianhuo's pupils abruptly contracted!
Her fury soared to the heavens. Her power erupted on the spot, her aura unleashed in full!
The seven-meter saber reappeared in an instant!
Ignoring Liu Tianguang, she turned and charged at Xiao Fan!
"No kissing!" Lin Xianhuo shouted furiously, swinging her saber down!
Shao Yan hurriedly raised her hand. Though she disliked cultivation, she had the talent and had also reached the Lesser Grandmaster realm!
After blocking the strike, Shao Yan held her head high and looked at Lin Xianhuo with mockery in her eyes, as if to say, See? Xiao Fan likes me!
Me!
It doesn't have a damned thing to do with you!
But Xiao Fan didn't look at Shao Yan again. He snorted and said, "That's more like it. Hurry up and go cut down Liu Tianguang!"
Lin Xianhuo finally caught on. Flushed with embarrassment and anger, she said, "You did that on purpose!"
Xiao Fan snorted. "Weren't you doing it on purpose too?"
"I!" Lin Xianhuo was at a loss. She had definitely failed this time.
She looked at the people around her.
The students were all dumbstruck.
Liu Rushi, Liu Wentao, and the rest all had looks of inferiority on their faces!
Green Leaf City was only a third-tier small city, one of the lowest grade. When had they ever seen anything like this?
A seven-meter flaming saber-its sheer presence could make someone piss themselves in fright!
Liu Tianguang was even more furious. He suddenly understood that Lin Xianhuo had deliberately held back before!
If she had fought with this kind of power from the start, the battle would already be over!
This was ridiculous!
"Why did you go easy on me at the start?!" Liu Tianguang roared!
Lin Xianhuo snorted. "Are you fighting or not? If not, admit defeat yourself and stop bothering me!"
She was genuinely unhappy now. Her plan had been going so well. Xiao Fan looked shameless, but he had a good heart and was very kind. If she got badly beaten, he definitely wouldn't be able to resist helping!
And yet, it had failed!
How frustrating!
"A warrior may be killed, but never humiliated!" Liu Tianguang flew into a rage and started charging at her with his longsword!
But halfway there, he remembered that his sword had long since broken. Still, he couldn't let his momentum falter!
Just then, Lin Xianhuo tightened her grip on the saber's hilt and struck in anger.
"Heavenly Fire Half-Moon Slash!"
"Boom!"
A streak of fire more than ten meters long whistled past in an instant!
The terrifying power frightened all the students into screaming on the spot. Liu Tianguang's hand shook so badly that he couldn't even hold on to his broken sword. Abandoning all concern for appearances, he turned and ran!
In the end, a teacher hurriedly stepped in and blocked Lin Xianhuo's strike!
The outcome was decided.
Lin Xianhuo snorted. "You lost. As agreed, come over and kneel to apologize to Xiao Fan!"
Suddenly, Xiao Fan raised an eyebrow and ran to Lin Xianhuo's side, bringing his mouth close to her ear.
The intimate gesture made Lin Xianhuo blush and feel a little shy. What's this dog of a man trying to do in front of everyone?!
"Tell him he doesn't need to kneel. Ask if he has any third-tier cultivation techniques and have him bring them all over!"
Xiao Fan's shameless voice sounded in Lin Xianhuo's ear, and her smile froze.
Well, would you look at that.
And here I was wondering what he was going to say to me.
I even thought he was going to show me some concern!
But no, ivory never comes out of a dog's mouth! Lin Xianhuo glared at Xiao Fan in a huff. "Then we'll call it even, and you have to delete the photos!"
"No can do. You have to get me at least ten amplification-type martial arts manuals, any tier, before I'll consider deleting them." Xiao Fan raised an eyebrow.
"That's my final offer. I've only got one cheap life anyway. But you? You're a young lady. You can't go down with me, right?"
Lin Xianhuo immediately felt a little aggrieved. She knitted her brows and huffed. "If I'd known, I wouldn't have stood up for you!"
"How annoying!"
With that, she turned and glared at Liu Tianguang. "You don't have to kneel! Make me a copy of every first-, second-, and third-tier martial art your family has!"
"You can scram now!"
"Impossible! Martial arts are a family's greatest foundation! I'll give you one third-tier amplification-type manual at most!" Liu Tianguang snorted!
"Only one? Are you trying to fob off a beggar?!" Lin Xianhuo flew into a rage.
"At least two third-tier amplification-type manuals!"
"Otherwise, you're kneeling today!"
Liu Tianguang looked embarrassed. "Impossible. One second-tier and one third-tier!"
"I can't produce two third-tier manuals!"
"Fine, that'll do!" Lin Xianhuo snorted.
Today, he, Green Leaf High School's most outstanding senior, had truly lost every scrap of face!
As Liu Tianguang left, he clenched his fists tightly, his heart full of indignation!
He really couldn't accept it. Who on earth was this Lin Xianhuo? Was this some kind of joke? Her age, her realm, a cultivation technique of this level!
She could probably even get into the Super God Class!
Was it fun coming to Green Leaf City to bully people?!
Fine!
You're bullying me, are you?
Then I'll go bully the person you care about most-Xiao Fan!
After leaving the school gates, Liu Tianguang couldn't resist punching the wall and roaring, "Fuck!"
Meanwhile, the talent testing event continued, but Xiao Fan and Lin Xianhuo had no need to be tested. The two went straight to the cafeteria to eat.
Lin Xianhuo strode ahead in a huff, with Xiao Fan following behind, a little nervous.
Why is she angry now?
I didn't go looking for trouble with her, did I?
"What's wrong?" Xiao Fan asked cautiously, opening his mouth in a smile, though it was a thoroughly shameless one.
Lin Xianhuo snorted. "Xiao Fan, why won't you reveal your strength?"
"With your strength, you could easily get into the Super God Class!"
The Super God Class!
The moment those words came out, Xiao Fan's pupils visibly quivered.
But the next second, he smiled and shook his head. "You know I'm the greatest weirdo in history, and I have no backing. If something happened, I'd be in a terrible spot!"
"I have backing, and so does she!" Lin Xianhuo pointed first at herself and then at Shao Yan, her face serious.
But Xiao Fan thought little of it.
Of course he knew these two were important people with powerful backing. But no matter how powerful that backing was, they were still just young girls. How much say could they have?
Besides, they're willing to help me now, but what about later?
What if they change their minds one day?
If I want to get into the Super God Class, I'd better hurry up and complete the system mission and activate my talent.
Xiao Fan lowered his head and, without answering Lin Xianhuo, walked into the cafeteria and began serving himself food.
Looking at his lonely figure from behind, Lin Xianhuo inexplicably felt a pang of heartache. She looked at Shao Yan and frowned. "Shouldn't I be the one feeling aggrieved?"
"What, is he angry now too?"
Shao Yan said mildly, "What do you have to feel aggrieved about?"
"You took it upon yourself to stand up for Xiao Fan, didn't you?"
"And you also schemed to make Xiao Fan act, didn't you?"
"From beginning to end, you never respected what Xiao Fan himself wanted. If you hadn't helped him get those two cultivation techniques, he'd be more than angry. Believe it or not, he'd even dare to fall out with you."
"I..." Lin Xianhuo had no answer, her eyes full of pain.
She didn't know what to do with herself.
Just then, Shao Yan stepped forward and patted her back, comforting her. "Xiao Fan is extremely stubborn!"
"If you want to change him, you'll have to get into his heart first!"
"Has he ever been in love?" Lin Xianhuo suddenly asked.
Shao Yan chuckled. "No."
"He's never liked any woman either. At least, I've never noticed."
"He's practically invisible, always sitting in a corner of the classroom and never making a sound."
"He might seem talkative, but if no one talks to him, he really can go a whole day without saying a single word!"
"Deep in his heart, there's a very thick wall."
"I shamelessly made him carry me home on his back every night, and even I couldn't get through that wall. How long have you known him?"
Lin Xianhuo frowned. "I can't shake the feeling you're showing off!"
"Am I?" Shao Yan grinned and stepped into the cafeteria, ready to get some food!
