Capítulo 1589: Chapter 1578: Eradicating the Root
Looking at the two golden lights in the void, Ning Fan was delighted, “There’s hope!”
These two golden lights were the crystallization of Divine Power.
With the compression of the True Qi cage, the two ghostly shadows seed like smoke, shrinking from human size under the pressure into a black glass bead-sized mass.
The black glass bead, when encountering the equally condensed Divine Power Gold Spots, vanished without a trace.
Seeing the gold and black colors disappear simultaneously, Daisylin exclaid, “Is it over already?”
“Who said it was over? Isn’t there a…”
Before Ning Fan finished speaking, he found a fragrant pendant hanging on him.
Daisylin’s overreaction made Ning Fan slightly uncomfortable, and he awkwardly said, “I was just trying to scare you.”
“Really?”
Daisylin mustered her courage and suspiciously looked behind her.
Only then did she realize she had been tricked, and with a flicker of resentnt in her eyes, Daisylin’s expression turned anxious, and she hurriedly escaped from Ning Fan’s embrace.
“Why rush off? I don’t mind you staying in my warm arms for a while longer.”
“Who wants to snuggle in your arms?”
Daisylin secretly spat, then shyly walked toward Rose.
“Why hasn’t she woken up yet? Didn’t Barn say…”
Daisylin promptly held back the rest of her words, as continuing would show doubt.
Ning Fan calmly said, “You weren’t anxious just now; why the hurry now? A few days of good rest and she’ll naturally recover.”
As the ghostly figure disappeared, Ning Fan thoroughly checked Rose.
If there were truly any issues, by the ti Daisylin noticed, it would have been too late.
Embarrassnt flickered in Daisylin’s eyes; earlier, she had been so scared by the Ghost Fire and ghostly shadow that she forgot herself.
Looking at the slumbering Rose, Daisylin felt her complexion seed better, though that might have been psychological.
“Mr. Ning, I really must thank you this ti.”
With that, Daisylin slowly bowed before Ning Fan in gratitude.
“Your life-saving grace for Rose, I will never forget.”
Ning Fan pouted, “Just saying it isn’t enough. At least give so gifts.”
“Ah!”
Daisylin was stunned, not expecting Ning Fan to say this.
In Daisylin’s view, wealth and power were rely mundane; ntioning them was an insult to Ning Fan.
As a Princess, even if Ning Fan hadn’t asked, he would surely receive so material gratitude.
Daisylin calmly said, “I wonder what you need, sir? I will certainly fulfill Mr. Ning’s request.”
Ning Fan joked, “There’s an old saying in Huaxia, ‘Life-saving grace must be repaid with one’s life.’ Your Highness, what do you think of this request?”
“This…”
Daisylin’s cheeks flushed red; she truly didn’t know how to respond.
Daisylin shyly said, “Is this really Mr. Ning’s request?”
Ning Fan grinned mischievously, “Yes. Isn’t it simple?”
“I…”
When Daisylin was about to muster her courage, she heard Ning Fan mutter,
“I knew you’d just say pretty words, so I’ll change my request.”
“Please, Mr. Ning.”
Daisylin breathed a sigh of relief, though she felt a bit disappointed inside.
“Do you rember the village Barn ntioned?”
“I think it’s called Cailai Village.”
With so hesitation, Daisylin said, “Do you want that village, sir? It may be difficult, but not impossible, just a bit ti-consuming.”
In this new era, although the Royalty of Tai Kingdom lost governance over the nation,
they still enjoyed nurous privileges in prestige, wealth, and status.
The Tai Kingdom had many lands that were private properties of the Royalty, legally recognized by the state.
The Royalty possessed the privilege to award land to private individuals.
Even Daisylin herself had her private fief.
Though Ning Fan’s request seed difficult, it wasn’t impossible.
Ning Fan said helplessly, “Why would I need that village? I just want you to help find this place as soon as possible.”
“Ah… Mr. Ning, are you sure that’s your request!”
Daisylin didn’t expect Ning Fan’s request to be so simple.
Just monts ago, she had been racking her brain on how to exchange benefits to fulfill Ning Fan’s request.
Ning Fan playfully retorted, “Otherwise, what? Did you really want to offer yourself? Hehe…”
Daisylin’s exquisite face, still tinged with a rosy blush, beca even more beautiful, and Ning Fan was srized.
“I’ll have soone check right away.”
Using the excuse of making a call, Daisylin finally masked her embarrassnt and shyness.
The royal privileges quickly took effect.
In the middle of the night, in less than ten minutes, all the information about Cailai Village appeared before Ning Fan.
“A small country does have its advantages. Unlike our Great Huaxia, where there are countless small villages with the sa na.”
There was only one village in the data; Ning Fan didn’t need to verify repeatedly unless Barn had lied to him with a fake na.
But recalling earlier, Ning Fan thought that was unlikely.
At that mont, Barn had clearly slipped up; though he quickly changed the subject, that slip-up proved its authenticity.
morizing the information, Ning Fan stood up and said, “Then I’ll take my leave.”
“Mr. Ning, from the way you’re speaking, are you leaving now?”
Gazing at the night sky, Daisylin’s eyes were filled with confusion, and she tried to persuade, “There are many inconveniences in traveling at night. How about leaving after I bid you farewell tomorrow?”
Ning Fan shook his head, “No, thanks. I’m a bit pressed for ti. It’s better to go early.”
Hearing this, Daisylin understood and exclaid in surprise, “Barn’s father is in Cailai Village. Mr. Ning is going to…”
“Of course, to eliminate the problem at the root.”
Ning Fan smiled faintly, not hiding his murderous intent.
“I thought so.”
Daisylin nodded silently, then enthusiastically offered, “I will lead the Guard to assist Mr. Ning in eradicating that Demon.”
Hearing this, Ning Fan was startled and quickly said, “By all ans, no!”
“Why? Do you think we’d be a burden?”
Perhaps Ning Fan’s exaggerated reaction slightly annoyed Daisylin, and there was a hint of dissatisfaction in her voice.
“Don’t take this the wrong way.”
Ning Fan changed his tone and directly shook his head, “It’s not about what I think, but you really would be a burden.”
Daisylin said coldly, “You’re underestimating !”
She wasn’t a delicate damsel; like Rose, she had also practiced Ancient Muay Thai.
In terms of actual combat ability, even the Captain of the Guard might not be her match.
Ning Fan sighed, “It’s not underestimation. It’s a fact. From what you saw earlier, do you think these guards would be useful? No matter how many people there are, they’d just be fodder.”
