Chapter 585: Chapter 585: This Woman, She Knows How to Play

"Hey, what’s this situation now? There’s no need for us to be like this, right?"

Lin Fan looked across at Shangguan Min Yue with a wry smile on his face.

Since their first meeting, she had always confronted him with a sword.

Fortunately, things had been normal these past days.

So why has this suddenly come about again?

"You swear!"

The face of Shangguan Min Yue was always cold as ice.

But that kind of coldness radiating from within gave her a unique beauty.

Like an ice sculpture thousands of years old, never to thaw.

"Can an oath made at swordpoint really count? Besides, what oath should I even swear?"

Lin Fan looked helplessly at Shangguan Min Yue.

Her way of thinking was always so unique that he could hardly keep up.

"You are the man who took wedding vows with me and entered the bridal chamber. Therefore, you swear that when I return after mastering my skills, you must marry me and take responsibility for me!"

Shangguan Min Yue’s words left Lin Fan truly helpless.

"Sister, it doesn’t seem like the vow should be mine to make. You run off to learn martial arts, leaving me alone at home. By the day your cultivation technique is complete, perhaps I might have changed my heart and eloped with someone else. How could I then take you as my wife?"

"Impossible, I, Shangguan Min Yue, swear on the name of the ancestors of the Shangguan family that in this life, Lin Fan is my only husband. From the beginning to the end, I will never give up. If I break this oath, may the heavens strike me with five thunders and annihilate my Shangguan clan!"

This was the most vicious oath Shangguan Min Yue could think of.

"Aren’t you afraid that your ancestors underground, having been dead for hundreds of years, might come up and spank you for swearing on their names? This would be a calamity they didn’t ask for," Lin Fan said with a bitter smile.

This was what made Shangguan Min Yue endearing.

At this moment, she looked earnest and solemn.

"Don’t give me that. I will not break my oath. Now it’s your turn. You swear that you’ll take me as your wife, or else..."

"Or else, what? You’re going to kill your husband?"

Lin Fan said with a smile, pushing away the Qingfeng Sword.

This way of expressing love was indeed very strange.

"Then... if you don’t swear, I’ll commit suicide..."

Shangguan Min Yue waved her hand decisively.

The Qingfeng Sword was placed against her snow-white neck.

The decisiveness of her action made Qi Qi gasp in shock.

"Alright, alright, I swear that on the day when Shangguan Min Yue’s cultivation technique is complete, if she still wishes to marry me, I will definitely take her as my wife. Happy now?"

Lin Fan quickly moved the sharp Qingfeng Sword away from Shangguan Min Yue’s neck.

Every move this girl made was so reckless.

But it was precisely this directness that made her all the more special.

"So what do we do now?"

Having made his oath, Shangguan Min Yue stood there, looking at Lin Fan with confusion.

"Do what?"

Lin Fan didn’t understand what she meant.

"You know, for parting, what should we do?"

Shangguan Min Yue’s question made Lin Fan feel dizzy.

Sure enough, geniuses had almost zero life skills.

Fortunately, Qi Qi, who was standing by, caught on.

She hurriedly shouted, "Of course you hug and kiss!"

"Oh!"

Shangguan Min Yue immediately walked forward and embraced Lin Fan.

Feeling the soft impact against his chest, but her embrace didn’t seem to carry much affection.

It felt more like a farewell between brothers.

Still, Shangguan Min Yue awkwardly brushed her lips against Lin Fan’s.

The almost clashing kiss hurt so much that Lin Fan covered his mouth right after.

"Let’s leave this kind of thing to me in the future.

"Mm-hmm, then I’m off," Shangguan Min Yue agreed.

He turned around and walked toward the distance.

The way she never even looked back, so resolute.

"Ah, really don’t know if her mind ever takes a turn, could it lead to a crash?"

Watching Shangguan Min Yue’s dashing figure, Lin Fan couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

Having such a lively treasure appear was indeed a highlight in life.

"Isn’t being straightforward a good thing, at least it’s much better than those who have nothing but schemes in their heads, really didn’t expect Miss. Shangguan to be so cool. If it were me leaving, I would definitely have a big cry."

Qi Qi pouted and grabbed Lin Fan’s arm.

Although they don’t mention it now, separation was inevitably just a matter of time.

Right now, they had almost all the needed medicines.

They even had two of the five poisons and even the secret manuals passed down by Ni Chang herself.

Qi Qi’s path as the Poisonous Goddess was almost set in stone.

Just waiting to find the other three poisons, and then they would set off.

"Alright, it’s not like we won’t see each other again. Didn’t we just say that when you finish your training, it will be time for me to feast? Stop being so sentimental all the time; I’m getting hungry, let’s hurry up and eat."

Lin Fan affectionately ruffled Qi Qi’s hair.

His marriage with Shangguan Min Yue was entirely arranged by Zhao Jiaqi.

Plus, given her usually cold character, there wasn’t much deep feeling between them.

So he wasn’t particularly sad about her departure.

"Alright!"

Li Qiqi nodded in agreement, and the two of them climbed the stairs once again.

And at that moment, a military vehicle had already stopped at the entrance.

The person getting off was the dashing Xu Zhi Rou.

"You’re here so early, have you had breakfast?"

Lin Fan looked at Xu Zhi Rou’s somewhat darkened eye rims.

No need to ask, she must have spent another sleepless night.

"Not yet, here’s a list just submitted, containing some of the personnel information that arrived from Beijing in the past few days. My father said it was for Dragon Tooth to pass to you. Shouldn’t Jiaqi have reported to Dragon Tooth by now since she’s back?"

Zhao Jiaqi was originally on a mission from her father.

But now she had an additional link, to join up with Lin Fan and the Heavenly Master.

Although she was happy about this, she clearly saw Zhao Jiaqi return.

So why didn’t she show up?

"Jiaqi is a bit tied up right now and can’t rejoin the squad, so you’ll have to work hard during this period."

Lin Fan smiled and took the list, which clearly recorded the names and details of over a dozen people.

It included very detailed parental information and backgrounds.

Obviously, there was a hidden big fish among them.

"It’s not hard, as long as Jiaqi is fine."

Seeing Lin Fan, Xu Zhi Rou naturally didn’t feel burdened.

"Then don’t just stand there, let’s go in and talk while we eat. I’ve prepared lots of soup."

Li Qiqi hurriedly invited Xu Zhi Rou, stepping into the Medicine King House.

But as everyone arrived at the dining room, they did not see Ni Chang’s figure.

"Grandpa, where’s... Miss. Jiaqi?"

Looking at Li Yizhen sitting at the table, drooling, Li Qiqi asked curiously.

"Just now, your grandma and I were about to sneak in for breakfast when Miss Jiaqi suddenly stood up, saying the Heavenly Master had summoned her to the backyard to meet with your grandma. As for what they are doing, I don’t know. So, can we start eating now?"

Ever since his wife returned, Li Yizhen seemed to have regained some of his youth.

Gazing at the table full of sumptuous breakfast, he was drooling with anticipation.

"No, we have to wait for Miss. Jiaqi to come back before eating."

Li Qiqi pouted her mouth.

The help Ni Chang gave her was especially generous.

She couldn’t offer much in return; cooking a meal was the greatest extent of her ability.

But at this moment, Lin Fan’s expression darkened.

His gaze turned toward the direction of the backyard.

"There’s a murderous aura!"
