Chapter 944 - 894: Nothing to See Here, Just 300 Taels! (Part 3)

Outside the Spiritual Medicine Garden.

The playful old man perched on the treetop revealed a smile full of intrigue.

He folded his arms across his chest, eyes shut.

Unconcerned about the pungent scent of blood on his robe.

He hadn’t lied to Qin Fan; this was his first time killing someone.

Living over a hundred years, it was his first kill.

Yet he felt no discomfort at all.

Before long.

A faint snoring began.

The old man had fallen asleep!

He drifted off with that thoughtful smile on his face.

But this peaceful slumber didn’t last long.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes wide and stood up abruptly!

Unconsciously exclaiming, "How is this possible!"

His breath quickened, his heart raced.

He turned his head and looked toward the Spiritual Medicine Garden.

Only to see wisps of faint golden light rising from within.

Gradually.

The golden light became incredibly intense.

It seemed to envelop the entire Spiritual Medicine Garden!

But what shocked the old man was not the golden light.

It was the aura inside!

The aura of those plants and trees!

It was an essence of purity taken to the extreme.

More pure than the essence of spirit plants in the Medicine Garden of the Kunlun Secret Realm, which can only be entered with the sovereign’s token!

Before the old man fell asleep, the Spiritual Medicine Garden was just an ordinary garden in his eyes!

But now, how could it suddenly change like this?

He was no fool; he naturally knew this must be Qin Fan’s doing!

In such a short time, he had transformed an ordinary garden into a land of essence surpassing the secret realm’s Medicine Garden?

Madness!

Madness, madness—

What exactly is this guy’s true identity?

What mysteries lie behind his identity?

If Qin Fan didn’t previously know about the Four Great Sects, he would surely think of the other three sects.

But then again, it’s impossible for the other three sects to have such an anomaly!

Suddenly.

The old man remembered the story the sovereign had told him!

If it weren’t for that immortal called Six Paths.

There would be no sovereign in this world, not even Kunlun!

Could it be that this is someone akin to Immortal Six Paths?

Yes, yes.

It must be, even if not, it can’t be far off!

Thinking this.

The old man’s breathing became more erratic!

In those days, Immortal Six Paths merely gave the sovereign a Body Refining Formula, leading to the rise of Kunlun as a sect, propelling Kunlun to become a hidden sect!

If Qin Fan could enlighten him, or even aid Kunlun.

What kind of power leap would that be?

In an instant, the old man’s heart raced wildly!

He suddenly felt he had bet right!

Truly bet right!

Feeling the essence emanating from the Spiritual Medicine Garden.

The old man took a deep breath of the spiritual energy seeping out.

Instantly, he felt immensely refreshed and invigorated!

When he first entered the earthly world, he couldn’t get used to the air here at all.

But now, this otherworldly bodily sensation is even more comfortable than in the Kunlun Secret Realm!

Suppressing the urge to rush in and explore.

The old man continuously gulped.

This was excitement!

Gradually.

His thoughts became more agile amidst this excitement!

It seems he still needs to continue playing the fool.

Although Qin Fan had previously ordered him not to put on this act before him, he could sense that Qin Fan wasn’t angry about it, and more importantly, the girl fighting alongside Qin Fan seemed to appreciate his antics.

And that girl, she seems to subtly influence Qin Fan’s decisions, and he could see that Qin Fan cares about her!

"That’s right, that’s right, I’m not pretending to be false, everyone in Kunlun calls me a playful child, I’m just being myself!"

Excitedly twitching his aged eyebrows, the old man muttered to himself.

Finished muttering.

He no longer looked toward the Spiritual Medicine Garden.

Instead, he spun around and flew back to his original perch in the tree.

Continuing to lean back with his eyes closed.

But the sound of snoring could no longer be heard, his heart unable to settle!

Time slowly passed.

The old man still couldn’t calm his heart.

A long while.

The golden light in the Spiritual Medicine Garden faded away.

Qin Fan’s figure also emerged from the garden.

Inside, Miao Yingjie’s aura was increasingly weak.

His face already tinged purple and blue.

Yet the inhumane torment continued to gnaw at him, making life worse than death.

Even if Qin Fan were to release him from this constraint, he could no longer survive.

Walking out of the Spiritual Medicine Garden.

Looking at the old man on the treetop deliberately snoring.

A deep, playful smile spread across Qin Fan’s face.

Could the old man not sense the anomaly of the Spiritual Medicine Garden?

Could he not be astonished upon sensing it?

Could he really sleep through such astonishment?

Clearly, this was an act of self-deception!

"Hey, stop pretending to sleep!"

With a playful smile.

Qin Fan picked up a stone from the ground.

And flicked it accurately at the old man.

"Ouch!"

The old man, hit by the stone, exaggeratedly fell from the tree.

In a clumsy position, he got up awkwardly and flattered, "Boss, you’re done! Ah—old man, I hardly slept last night, kept awake by the sounds of you and Miss Yinuo, all the thudding and uh-uhs, you gotta take care of the ladies, boss!"

As he spoke, the old man jogged over to Qin Fan obsequiously.

However, Qin Fan’s forehead furrowed in exasperation at these unrestrained antics.

But he was too lazy to address this foolery.

The old man wants to play?

Then let him play along!

The Four Great Sects of the Vast World.

They indeed piqued his interest.

"Let’s go, to the next destination!"

Facing the approaching old man, Qin Fan shook his head with a smile.

"Boss, next stop? What do you mean? We go to kill people again?" The old man’s face lit up with bloodthirsty excitement, asking quickly.

"Not just killing people, but slaughtering some beasts too! Those beasts are full of treasures, great supplements! Let’s go, follow me!"

Qin Fan’s playful laughter echoed.

He moved his feet, the whole body shot up into the air, racing forward.

On the ground.

Watching the scene of soaring through the air.

The old man’s jaw dropped in shock!

Though he could also take flight, it was only for short distances from one point to another.

But Qin Fan’s feat was direct flight!

Flight more flawless than the legendary sword flight obtained upon achieving the Dao?

This—

Shocked and bewildered, the old man’s mind was in disarray.

Yet at the same time, it strengthened his resolve to stay by Qin Fan’s side no matter what.

By the time he came to his senses, Qin Fan’s figure had vanished without a trace.

Relying on his sense of smell.

The old man swallowed hard.

Quickly leaping off the ground, following the scent!

...

Shennongjia.

At the scenic area entrance.

Qin Fan watched the passing tourists with his hands folded behind his back.

A faint, sunny smile on his face, enhancing his charm.

The awakening of the Great Saint Inheritance had also diminished the youthful immaturity in his features.

To those unaware of his age, they would never believe he was under twenty.

After refusing countless girls who came to ask for his WeChat or phone number.

The old man’s figure finally came into view for Qin Fan.

"Boss, isn’t this a tourist spot? I’ve heard of Shennongjia, are we going into the primeval forest inside to hunt those beasts?"

His breath a bit erratic, slightly heavy.

But the old man didn’t complain that Qin Fan didn’t wait for him. Instead, he asked in confusion.
