Chapter 568: Chapter 568: The Enemy Comes with a Shotgun

"She’s not Jiaqi!"

Qi Qi’s eyes widened in shock.

She couldn’t help but take another look at Ni Chang sitting there.

How could this person, who looked exactly like Zhao Jiaqi, not be her?

But now, she had changed into a long dress, even her delicate arms covered by a coat.

This was indeed quite different from Zhao Jiaqi, who favored hotpants and tank tops.

"To be precise, the body is Zhao Jiaqi’s, but inside it’s her best friend. You can call her Ni Chang. She is the holy woman of the Heavenly Cave, and this time she’s using Jiaqi’s body to come up from the underground and see the outside world."

Lin Fan briefly explained the situation.

Qi Qi was left speechless by this bizarre story.

"So, you can even swap souls... then what about Jiaqi... Can Sister Ni Chang also swap into someone else’s body?"

"The rules for soul swapping are very strict; otherwise, it would be a forbidden technique. It can only happen if both parties completely agree and meet certain specific conditions."

Ni Chang smiled faintly.

Given the relationship between Qi Qi and Lin Fan, as well as her sincere smile.

It was clear that she was indeed a kind girl.

Thus, the distance between the two seemed to lessen.

"I see. That sounds quite fun. Sister Ni Chang, could you teach me? It must be great to swap bodies just for fun."

Li Qiqi suddenly looked at Ni Chang with shining eyes.

If she could swap bodies, maybe she could enjoy some things in advance.

Like swapping with Yang Linglong or Ning Mengyao.

Or even swapping with Lu Feifei.

Wouldn’t that be wonderful?

"Soul swapping is a profound cultivation technique, without a dedicated practice of ten years, it’s impossible to control. Besides, soul swapping is originally a puppetry technique, meant to forcibly control others, so it’s hard for outsiders to achieve. Both parties must cooperate fully, and any slightest mistake could result in turning the other person into an idiot."

Ni Chang, without stinginess, scared Qi Qi into hastily shaking her head with her explanation.

"Then I’d better not. Such a terrifying technique is better left unlearned."

"All right, you two will have plenty of opportunities to interact in the future. This is Ni Chang’s first visit to the surface world, and there are many things and rules she doesn’t understand. She will be staying at Medicine King House for the next few days. When you have time, take her around and, most importantly, teach her some technology. Once I’m done with my work, I’ll take you both shopping."

Lin Fan had a lot on his plate now and couldn’t always stay by Ni Chang’s side.

Moreover, mutual affection was present, and if they stayed glued to each other for too long,

and he couldn’t control himself and took advantage of her,

that wouldn’t go over well with Zhao Jiaqi.

After all, the body’s owner wouldn’t agree.

"Okay, no problem, I will definitely take good care of Sister Ni Chang."

"It’s been several days since I’ve had your cooking. Could you make something for me? Just a little something to satisfy my cravings, and to welcome and cleanse Sister Ni Chang too?"

With this entrusted to him, Lin Fan felt like a load had been lifted off his shoulders.

For several days, he had been roughing it, and with Heavenly Cave gone to ashes,

he hadn’t had any good food.

"No problem, of course no problem. I’ll start preparing right away."

Seeing her beloved’s joy was naturally what Qi Qi was most willing to see.

She immediately got up and ran toward the kitchen.

"Then I’ll go help."

Ni Chang quickly stood up but was stopped by Lin Fan.

"No need, that’s her exclusive territory. You won’t be much help anyway, and since she is a descendant of the Miao Region, the ingredients she uses for cooking are things you’ve never seen. I’m going to meet a friend of Zhao Jiaqi. You just stay here and have some tea, and we’ll chat more over dinner."

"I find that Jiaqi was right, the women around you are all so beautiful."

Ni Chang looked at Lin Fan with a smile.

Whether it’s the adorable loli Qi Qi or the spirited Xu Zhi Rou,

each of them was a top-notch beauty.

Now she finally understood why Zhao Jiaqi, despite liking Lin Fan, would not get involved with him.

With such good looks, she felt somewhat inferior.

"You are pretty, too."

Lin Fan smiled and pulled Ni Chang close by the neck.

He kissed her lips directly.

The kiss instantly made her face turn red, and she lowered her head in embarrassment.

"Wait for me to come back."

After comforting Ni Chang, Lin Fan finally left the teahouse.

It was essential to keep this matter of using one thing as a substitute for another a secret.

If the Underground Elder Council got wind of it, it would bring unnecessary trouble.

So even for Xu Zhi Rou, he didn’t plan to tell her.

"How is it going?"

Xu Zhi Rou had been waiting in the car for news and came up to Lin Fan immediately after she saw him come out.

She stood up and walked over.

"The Heavenly Master’s order is to stay put and adapt to all changes, not to agree to any advance movements from the opponent, or else it would let the big fish hidden in the shadows slip away."

Lin Fan leaned against the car hood, took a cigarette out of his pocket, and lit it.

The big fish hidden within Dragon’s Teeth was the most threatening this time.

"Now that the construction site has been forcibly shut down, how do we find a reasonable excuse to lift the suspension?"

Xu Zhi Rou furrowed her brows.

The entire construction site was now under martial law.

Without a justified reason, it would only startle the snake in the grass.

"I will find a reason to lift it."

Lin Fan smiled and took out his phone, pressing the redial button.

No sooner had the call connected than an anxious voice from Yamamoto Ichiro came from the other end.

"You finally pick up the phone!"

"Sorry, I have been preoccupied with some matters recently, there was no signal there, so I couldn’t get in touch, may I know what is so urgent for Mr. Yamamoto to see me about?"

Lin Fan didn’t beat around the bush.

His directness made Yamamoto Ichiro furrow his brows.

"Let’s not beat around the bush. You had my construction site shut down, what are you planning to do?"

"Mr. Yamamoto, don’t be so quick to point fingers, your site is suspected of violations, and if it’s shut down, that was a message from Beijing, what does it have to do with me?"

Lin Fan vehemently denied it, infuriating Yamamoto Ichiro.

"I have already checked, there is no such order from Beijing at all, it was a unilateral decision by the local law enforcement, don’t think I am unaware that you are behind this!"

"Is there a chance your information is wrong? Or do you mean to threaten me? If so, there’s no need to continue this conversation."

Lin Fan hung up the phone without hesitation.

As expected, Yamamoto Ichiro called back the next moment.

Having no other choice but to avoid a situation where both sides suffer, he needed to temporarily ease the relationship with Lin Fan.

"I don’t want to hear any excuses. Just tell me, what will it take for you to let my construction site resume work!"

"To resume work is not so difficult, but some things are not as simple as just talking about them. As you know, in this world, whether people need to be kept or vehicles need to be driven, everything requires money, doesn’t it..."

Lin Fan deliberately drew out his words.

Infuriated, Yamamoto Ichiro clenched his fists tight, "How much money do you want?"

"Don’t be in a hurry to set a price, there are some things I need to discuss first, wait for a reply."

Lin Fan hung up the phone with a smile.

He hadn’t figured out the price yet.
