Upon this thought, Li Fan looked intrigued.
“Stand on one foot and turn two rounds to the left. Then, turn three rounds to the right.”
To verify, Li Fan manded in a cold voice.
If his previous inquiry was somewhat impolite, then Li Fan’s current mand can be considered absurd.
Asking a foundation-building female cultivator, whom he met for the first time, to perform such a bizarre and ical act.
Any normal person would never agree.
But surprisingly, Lu Xuejing meticulously pleted the whole set of actions as instructed.
However, she was staring at Li Fan fiercely, eyes seemingly ablaze.
Wishing she could grind him into ash.
However, Li Fan, a man of her caliber, could not be intimidated by a young girl fresh from the thatched cottage.
With a slight smile, he said to Lu Xuejing, “It seems that you are still not aware of your current situation.”
“Hmm, speaking rudely to an unknown old fisherman … perhaps you really need some disciplinary lesson.”
“Keep revolving like just now, you cannot stop without my mand.”
Li Fan said coldly.
There was a flicker of humiliation in Lu Xuejing’s eyes, but her body obediently plied.
And began to revolve ically.
For now, Li Fan ignored her and began to contemplate the reasons for the situation at hand.
When the old fisherman handed over Lu Xuejing to Li Fan earlier, he referred to her with words like “thing” “object”.
Apparently, in the eyes of the fisherman, this innocent young girl was his possession.
After that, by obtaining the Day Theft and Day Exchange Order, and as an exchange, he bestowed this “item” to Li Fan.
Thus, the ownership of this so-called item had now fallen onto Li Fan.
Being the master of the item, naturally, Li Fan holds the right to control it.
Although unsure of how the fisherman made it happen, based on Lu Xuejing’s current obedience to Li Fan, this had already bee a fact.
“The item is correct.”
“But where does the great usefulness manifest?”
No matter how beautiful a Foundation-Stage female cultivator is, she won’t be of great use to Li Fan, who is heart-set on seeking immortality.
“Unless …”
At this thought, without asking Lu Xuejing to stop revolving, Li Fan directly asked, “Tell me about your mother.”
Hope flashed in Lu Xuejing’s eyes, she stammered, “Mother’s name is Lu Qixian, the chief array master of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals’ Array Strategy Hall. She is a Unity-Path cultivator …”
As the girl’s words reached his ears, Li Fan felt a jolt inside. His eyes lit up as he turned to look at Lu Xuejing.
“Chief of the Array Strategy Hall, need to set up the Tianxuan Soul Locking Array, Five Elements Great Cave Heaven …”
“Could it be like this?”
In an instant, Li Fan thought of a possibility.
“I don’t know what the old fisherman saw in me. But now that he has laid such a golden opportunity in front of me, it must not be missed.”
“If I can probe some information about Five Elements Great Cave Heaven, even if I have to reincarnate in this world again, it will be worth it. If I could enter the Cave of Heaven and observe from the inside, it would be even better.”
Li Fan’s eyes were glowing, and his heart stirred with excitement.
However, he was not carried away by this heavensent joy and quickly calmed himself down.
“Unity Immortal Monarch, and also the chief array master. Her strength is undoubtedly unfathomable. Although I now own her daughter, if I think to leverage this to extort or seek any benefits, it will only lead me to the path of death.”
“I will have to plan carefully how to proceed.”
After some time, looking at Lu Xuejing, whose eyes were now filled with tears, and her face pleading for mercy, Li Fan gradually formed an idea in his mind.
“Stop!”
He finally shouted.
Like a weight lifted off her, Lu Xuejing stopped the ical act.
“Okay, you can go home now.” Li Fan said directly.
Lu Xuejing was initially taken aback, looking at Li Fan in disbelief.
Then a surge of ecstasy washed over her face.
With her body gaining freedom, her instinct urged her to flee this place, to get away from Li Fan.
However, she kept hearing the menacing whispers in her ears.
“Remember, the relationship between us is your most important secret. You cannot reveal even the slightest information to anyone in any form.”
“If someone gets suspicious, even just a little.”
“Then …”
“You just kill yourself.”
Li Fan’s voice was bone-chilling.
Lu Xuejing’s body shivered slightly.
“Once you’ve returned home, don’t say anything, just act as usual. Just wait for my instruction.”
“If anyone asks, just say you were captured by the fisherman, lost consciousness, and were saved by a stranger later. But before you could express your gratitude, the benefactor had already vanished.”
A munication Talisman floated towards her.
Li Fan’s voice echoed simultaneously.
“Keep it.”
“Alright, off you go.”
Upon receiving her master’s mand, Lu Xuejing pocketed the munication Talisman.
Without daring to look back, she flew towards the distant horizon.
Li Fan squinted his eyes, watching the retreating figure of the young girl.
“Striking a deal with a tiger promises immense risks, but once successful, the benefits are plentiful.”
“As long as I am cautious and ready to reincarnate without bogging down with any problem, I can minimize the risk.”
“Perhaps, in reality, it is not as dangerous as I think. The fisherman’s methods are strange, even I, being involved, failed to notice.”
“Had it not been for the fact that the girl was utterly unable to cope and displayed her hand too clearly, I might not have thought that something so bizarre and unreasonable could happen.”
“Wait …”
In an instant, it seemed that Li Fan had realized something.
“This feeling seems a bit familiar?”
In Li Fan’s mind, the image of the people in the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters in the Misthaven Ocean and the driver of the Green Bull Cart emerged.
“The Sky Slaughter Sword concealed in the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters, everyone in the palace turning into strange creatures.”
“Does this happen to the master of the Sky Slaughter Sword as well?”
“What on earth happened back then?”
While deeply absorbed in his thoughts, a strange sensation suddenly surged up in Li Fan’s heart.
Raising his head, he saw that Lu Xuejing, who had been flying high in the sky, had bee no more than a black dot in the distant horizon.
She suddenly descended like a kite with a broken string.
Breaking many branches on her way down, she disappeared from Li Fan’s sight.
At the same moment, Li Fan’s mind flashed an image.
Lu Xuejing, with an incredibly pained expression, rolling on the ground.
Twitching continuously.
Replicating the desperate struggle of a fish deprived of water or a human deprived of air.
Watching the scene before his eyes, Li Fan had an epiphany.
As the owner’s possession, the item could not leave the owner without permission.
Although Li Fan had verbally allowed her to leave, he did not exercise his right as an owner.
Because at that time, he did not know the extent of his authority over his possession.
But now, Li Fan got a firsthand experience of it.
