“Since you are unwilling to speak, I naturally cannot ask more!”
Yang Shiyun smiled, “But no matter what, I still have to thank you. If it weren’t for you, I truly don’t know what to do.”
“Sister Shiyun, saying that makes us seem like strangers!”
Lu Fan frowned, “No matter what, we are family. How can we be so formal!”
Yang Shiyun gave an awkward smile, “It was my haste. Indeed, you were never formal with me when we were young, so how can I be formal with you!”
The two looked at each other and smiled, their hearts filled with warmth.
Bathed in the moonlight, they seemed to exude a radiant glow.
After Yang Shiyun left, Lu Fan headed towards his room. However, just as he was about to enter, he noticed a figure sitting inside. “Not sleeping at night, why come to my room?”
“Of course, to accompany Mr. Lu!”
Long Yi lounged with his legs crossed, wearing black silk stockings, looking quite alluring.
“If I tell Xiao Ke about this, I doubt he will let you stay!”
Lu Fan narrowed his eyes, “I know you have ulterior motives, but I warn you, some things can be done, and some things cannot. If you overstep your bounds, I won’t be lenient!”
“I truly didn’t expect Mr. Lu to say such a thing!” Long Yi smiled, “In all these years, not many have been able to resist my temptations!”
“You are too confident in yourself!”
Lu Fan said coldly, “Leave my room!” Su Dan Novel Network
“Mr. Lu, why the hurry? You can resist now, but perhaps not later!” Long Yi smiled faintly.
Lu Fan frowned and was about to say something when he felt a heat spread through his body, his complexion changing. “What is happening?”
“Mr. Lu, do you feel a fever all over and generally unwell? Or perhaps you find me more pleasing to the eye?” Long Yi chuckled, his eyes filled with a seductive charm.
“You actually drugged this room?” Lu Fan said coldly, “Who exactly are you, and why are you doing this?”
“Actually, I am deeply in love with Mr. Lu, perhaps you are unaware!” Long Yi smiled, “Why not submit to me tonight? In this way, perhaps I can even save your life!”
“It seems my guess was correct. You are indeed no ordinary person!”
Lu Fan frowned, “You are from Cang Long Academy!”
“Mr. Lu, you can’t just say things without proof.” Long Yi shrugged, “Besides, with my beauty, I can make anyone unable to resist wherever I go. Why should Mr. Lu put on an act of virtue?”
“To obtain me?” Lu Fan sneered, “I think you want to get your hands on the Starfall Stone!”
“What, my drug is so potent, yet you seem unaffected!”
Noticing that Lu Fan showed no reaction, Long Yi suddenly asked.
Under normal circumstances, with the extraordinary potency of his drug, Lu Fan would have already surrendered obediently, but there was no sign of temptation in Lu Fan’s expression.
“You probably don’t understand. No matter what kind of drug it is, it has no effect on me!”
Lu Fan narrowed his eyes, “Moreover, I sensed something was wrong when I entered the room!”
“The effect of my medicine is something even a Huang Realm expert might struggle to resist. How did you manage it?” Long Yi frowned.
“Huang Realm expert?”
Lu Fan’s expression turned icy, “Who exactly are you!”
“What a spoilsport. I intended for a moment of spring to be worth a thousand gold, but it seems you have no manners at all!”
Long Yi slowly stood up and walked towards the door. He had intended to test Lu Fan’s willpower, but it turned out to be a wasted effort.
“Since you’ve come, leaving won’t be so easy!”
Lu Fan narrowed his eyes, “You should understand what I mean. If you don’t explain yourself clearly, don’t blame me for being impolite!”
In an instant, Lu Fan’s aura surged, carrying a chilling killing intent. Long Yi’s origins were unknown, and he would not tolerate such a person around him.
“Mr. Lu, you should think clearly. If you really intend to fight here, it won’t be good for you!” Long Yi smiled faintly, “After all, your family is all here. If you cannot capture me, I cannot guarantee their safety!”
“You dare!”
Lu Fan’s killing intent was immense. He would absolutely not allow such a thing to happen, even if it meant sacrificing himself.
“Of course, I wouldn’t dare. After all, Mr. Lu is no ordinary person!”
Long Yi smiled, “Regardless, there will be quite a commotion if we fight. Won’t that worry them then?”
“Are you threatening me?” Lu Fan said coldly.
“I wouldn’t dare to threaten you, I just want to make Mr. Lu understand!” Long Yi said calmly, “It’s getting late, I’ll go back to rest now. After all, girls need their beauty sleep!”
Long Yi’s expression was serene as he walked out of the room, his eyes filled with calm, as if Lu Fan were merely a plaything in his palm.
“If you want something, you can come directly at me, but if you dare to lay a hand on my family, I will never rest until it is resolved!”
Lu Fan’s eyes glinted with coldness, “The matter 18 years ago is inextricably linked with Cang Long Academy. I hope you’d best not do anything foolish!”
“Mr. Lu is too naive. What Cang Long Academy desires, it obtains. I hope Mr. Lu will take care of himself!”
Long Yi’s voice was indifferent, devoid of any emotion. As the senior disciple of Cang Long Academy, she knew very well what Cang Long Academy represented – a power that surpassed all nations, possessing countless experts.
After Long Yi left, Lu Fan’s face turned grim. He now realized that his strength was far from sufficient; at the very least, it could not provide him with a sense of security.
Long Yi could easily enter his sight, yet he couldn’t fathom her true strength, which indicated how formidable she was.
Gu Wen walked over from the side, having overheard their conversation. “Master, what should we do next? Keeping him around is bound to be a disaster!”
“His strength is immense, even I might not be his match!” Lu Fan waved his hand, “Moreover, if he is from Cang Long Academy, he must have experts backing him. If we kill him, Cang Long Academy will send even stronger individuals.”
“Master means to say, let him stay by our side?” Gu Wen frowned, “This way, while it won’t attract Cang Long Academy’s attention, he is still a ticking time bomb!”
“Indeed so!”
Lu Fan nodded solemnly, “For now, we can only take it one step at a time! Unless it’s absolutely necessary, we cannot act rashly!”
Gu Wen nodded solemnly, but his brow was furrowed with worry. In the past, no matter what the issue, Lu Fan could resolve it single-handedly. But now, it was proving quite difficult, which showed the opponent’s power.
After Gu Wen left, Lu Fan closed the door and took out the Starfall Stone. He didn’t know what this stone was for, why it could cause such a stir, or what conspiracy lay behind it, filling him with unease.
