Chapter 338 Heading Out Again (2)

Mu Bao Bao revealed a complicated look when she heard this, but she didn't keep talking about it.

She might have been angry, but she still had her wits about her.

Still, Lin Fan could see the guilty look in her eyes after she had asked this.

It was clear that she was blaming herself for the destruction of the Love Sect.

Lin Fan didn't think that she was wrong to think this since it seemed like the most possible option to him as well. He had always been confused why the Love Sect had been suddenly destroyed, but if it was because of this, then it would make sense.

Still, he knew better than to say it out loud to Mu Bao Bao, especially when she was in this state.

After a long period of silence, Mu Bao Bao said, "What should we do then?"

Lin Fan gave a sigh before saying, "Do you want to go to the South Province again?"

Mu Bao Bao's eyes opened wide when she heard this, but after a pause, she gave a nod.

She had left the South Province and deliberately avoided it after what had happened to the Love Sect, but now…it seemed like she had no choice but to go back. Now that this was even affecting the new home that she found, the new Love Sect that she founded, she had no choice but to get involved to protect what she had found.

She wouldn't let anything take it away.

She looked at Lin Fan with an expectant look, as if she was waiting for the next idea from him.

Without knowing it, she had slowly become more and more dependent on Lin Fan. She just seemed to listen to him more as if she felt that everything that he said was right.

What she didn't know was that this was the effect of the Love Gauge Taming skill.

Lin Fan however just shook his head and gave a sigh when he saw this.

He really didn't know what to do in this situation, there were just too many changes for him to adapt to. He had no idea why there were so many sudden changes, but there was nothing that he could do against them.

After all, the people that brought these changes were people that he couldn't do anything against right now.

All he could do was go with it and see how he could minimize the damage to his home and the people he cared about.

After settling this, Lin Fan turned to leave the dungeon.

There were still many other things that he had to think about, so he didn't have the time to comfort Mu Bao Bao like he normally would.

However, Mu Bao Bao wasn't as passive as before as she came forward to grab Lin Fan's sleeve.

Lin Fan was caught off guard since he had been deep in his thoughts, but he asked, "What is it?"

Mu Bao Bao couldn't help being a bit taken aback by the curt tone in his voice, but she still said, "Can you stay with me?"

Lin Fan was about to say something, but he caught himself before he said it. He was surprised that he would even think about saying what he was about to say since it was completely different from how he would normally act.

After taking a deep breath, he said, "I'm sorry, there's other things that I have to take care of today. I promise that I'll be with you another night, alright?"

Mu Bao Bao's eyes dimmed a bit when she heard this, but she still said with a nod, "Un, you take care of what you need to take care of. I'll be waiting."

Lin Fan patted her head with a smile before turning to leave.

As he left, he didn't notice the strange way that Mu Bao Bao was looking at him.

At the same time, since he was lost in his thoughts, he didn't notice the notifications that the system gave him.



During the night, after Lin Fan fell asleep, there was a girls gathering.

"He's not acting the same as usual?" Yue Lan asked.

Mu Bao Bao nodded in response to this before saying in a hesitant voice, "It almost seems like he's being much more distant and not his usual kind self…"

Yue Lan knitted her brows before giving a nod as well.

She had also felt the same feeling coming from Lin Fan.

Since he had come back from Night Fang City, she had felt that he was getting more and more distant. It was as if he was always thinking about something and he was too busy for them.

It had only gotten worse since the fourth prince came.

All of the girls fell silent after this as they all looked at each other. They could see the determined looks in each other's eyes.

After that moment of silence, Yue Lan said, "It's clear that he's being pushed too far by all these people and the stress is getting to him. If we want to protect him…"

She let her voice drift off before adding, "We need to take some drastic measures."

All of the girls nodded in response to this, including Yun Lan who had just joined the group.

She didn't really know what was happening since she didn't know Lin Fan as well as the others, but that didn't mean that her affection was less than theirs.

With this decided, Yue Lan suddenly took out a packet from a secret compartment in the room and handed each of the girls a piece of paper. Even Yun Lan, who was participating for the first time, received a piece of paper.

Once they all received their pieces of paper, the girls nodded without even looking down.

Yue Lan then said, "You all have your assignments, so go and take care of it." Then after another pause, she added, "Don't let him find out. This is for his good, but he might not understand."

All of the girls nodded once more before walking out.

There was only Yue Lan and Ming Xin left in the room after they were all gone.

Ming Xin looked at the look in Yue Lan's eyes and she couldn't stop a chill from running down her spine.

Yue Lan however didn't mind this at all as she just sat there in silence.

While Lin Fan was sleeping, there was another notification that came from the system, but he didn't see it at all.

It was just too bad that he didn't see it.



The next morning, Lin Fan went to send the fourth prince off.

Since they now knew the real identity of this group, they sent them off without any fanfare to avoid any problems.

Luckily, this group had come in secret in the first place, so there weren't many people who knew about them in the first place.

Lin Fan left the city with the fourth prince's group and once they were a good distance from the city, Lin Fan asked to talk to the fourth prince in private.

The fourth prince agreed to this and went to the side with Lin Fan, but he didn't say anything as he waited for Lin Fan to speak.

Lin Fan had already checked the area with Greeny's puppets before calling the fourth prince to the side, so he took out the token without hesitation. He put the token in front of the fourth prince and said, "Your highness, I think you forgot this."

The fourth prince narrowed his eyes to look at the token in Lin Fan's hand before saying with a smile, "I've never seen this token in my life."

Lin Fan knitted his brows when he heard this, but he said, "Your highness, this isn't something that can be left casually. Please take it with you."

The fourth prince just shook his head and said, "I've really never seen this token in my life before. I have no idea what you're talking about."

Lin Fan deeply knitted his brows after hearing this.

After all, it wasn't as if he could force the fourth prince to take this token.

But he really couldn't keep this token with him.

The fourth prince could see the look on his face, so he said, "You should know when to take these things that are offered to you sometimes. This is something that my royal father wanted you to have, so I can't take it back even if I wanted to."

Lin Fan's eyes couldn't help opening wide when he heard this.

The fourth prince had just said…it was the emperor who wanted him to have this token?

He just couldn't believe this no matter how he thought about it.

But still, there was nothing that he could say in response to this since the fourth prince had been so resolute.

In the end, he could only let the fourth prince group leave without giving back the token.

So he put the token deep into the Pet Storage Space since he knew that it would never get to see the light of day again.

After sending off the fourth prince's group, Lin Fan decided that he should leave right away.

He felt like he was losing control of the situation and he needed to obtain information as soon as possible, so he didn't want to wait a single second longer in the city.

But he knew that this wasn't possible since there were still things that he had to do in the city.

To his surprise though, Yue Lan told him that he could leave right away.

Lin Fan didn't understand why Yue Lan told him this, but she actually pushed him to leave with Mu Bao Bao.

In the end, Lin Fan was basically forced to leave the city with Mu Bao Bao.
