Peerless Divine Doctor in the City of Flowers
Chapter 699: The Confidence of the Gong Family

Chapter 699: Chapter 699: The Confidence of the Gong Family

The city was abuzz with songs and dances, neon lights flickering.

Sitting in a upscale restaurant, Lin Fan smiled as he looked at the two charming ladies across from him.

Ning Mengyao, with her delicate and alluring beauty, exuded infinite tenderness with every frown and smile.

Fortunately, Lu Feifei also had her unique charm, her slightly fuller figure lacking Ning Mengyao’s frailty, but instead, it carried a mature allure.

That gentle gaze was something one couldn’t help but linger on, again and again.

With two beauties by his side, Lin Fan was now the center of attention throughout the venue.

Just by sitting there, he was surrounded by envious glances.

But clearly, no one here would dare cause mischief, especially since Jiangning wasn’t far away.

Many people were already aware of Lu Feifei and Ning Mengyao’s identities.

These women, representing both new and longstanding major figures, were not to be provoked by anyone.

Furthermore, some time ago, a few misguided individuals had tried to mess with Ning Mengyao and soon after, their families were ruined.

So now, only the reckless would dare spoil the mood.

"What are you grinning about all this time?"

Ning Mengyao, wielding her cutlery, looked across at Lin Fan.

Ever since he had entered, he had been grinning nonstop.

"They say beauty is a feast for the eyes,I feel full without even eating. Truly, looking at beauties is beneficial, at least it saves on food."

Lin Fan licked his lips, no longer daring to imagine how happy he would be if all these beauties were gathered together.

Just these two flirtatious beauties alone were enough to make him lose his appetite.

He just wanted to hurry and hold them in his arms.

"How are you to have the strength if you don’t eat your fill, I think you need to eat, and eat a lot more at that."

Lu Feifei gave him a flirtatious look.

What would happen tonight was clear in all their minds.

This remark made Ning Mengyao’s face turn crimson, almost to the point where she couldn’t speak.

"Then I’ll need to add two more portions."

Seeing Ning Mengyao’s charming demeanor, Lin Fan couldn’t help but show a mischievous smile.

This bashful yet expectant look truly made him long to enact justice on the spot.

"Didn’t you say earlier that tonight you are going to the Gong Family, was that true or not?"

Ning Mengyao quickly changed the subject.

Some things are doable, but embarrassing to speak of.

"What do you think, does the Gong Family believe it’s true or false?"

Lin Fan looked at Ning Mengyao with a mischievous smile.

Just that move suddenly made her realize.

"You... are not planning to go tonight?"

"Of course, with you by my side, I wish the sun would never rise again, who would want to waste such a moment."

Lin Fan raised his glass of red wine and smiled as he drained it.

Seeing his smug smile, Lu Feifei couldn’t help but smile bitterly, "The Gong Family is going to be on edge tonight, anticipating an attack all night only to end up waiting in vain."

"It’s a bit like a psychological warfare, isn’t it?"

Ning Mengyao also raised her glass of red wine, "But I always find the opponent strange. I never saw him appear before, and due to issues with the Gong Family recently, I’ve covertly gathered information about all their direct relatives and none of them matches his age and appearance. Yet this man who suddenly showed up is definitely stronger than Fairy Xifeng, it’s really quite strange."

"For a family of Martial Cultivators, having many ancient, hidden monsters isn’t a surprise, and on the day of the rescue of the Four Saints, his face appeared as someone far beyond his years, yet now he looks to be in his thirties. I have reason to believe this guy is harboring some Evil Skills. Furthermore, after Fairy Xifeng lost the Black Blood Tripod, she should have depleted and died, yet she’s still lively and kicking. Don’t you think there may be a connection between these two events?"

Lin Fan picked up the wine bottle and poured more for the two women.

Only by drinking enough would they be able to loosen up more.

"So, you suspect that the Charming Skill possessed by Fairy Xifeng could be obtained from the Gong Family?"

Upon hearing this, Ning Mengyao widened her eyes.

"I’m almost certain, and when this guy was rescuing the Four Saints, he detonated the Blood Curse on Fairy Xifeng’s body to escape, so his existence, I suspect, ranks higher than everyone in the Gong Family. Having such strength is indeed strange."

Lin Fan recalled the figure from the night before last.

The opponent’s power would be no less than that of Lishan Ancestor, or else he wouldn’t dare provoke him.

"The Gong Family, although previously one of the three great Martial Cultivator families in Jiangning, never made much of a show; it’s quite unheard of for them to have such a powerful expert, or else Master Miejue like figures wouldn’t be venerated guests. This mysterious person popping up now feels like they’re hiding some secret, don’t you think?"

Ning Mengyao frowned.

The strange person that came out today also made her feel nervous.

Having witnessed Fairy Xifeng’s prowess, the disparity between her and this man was like heaven and earth.

If the Gong Family had had such a strong foundation before, they wouldn’t have had to dwell in a third-tier city like Jiangning.

Why didn’t they go to compete for power in places like Modu or the imperial capital?

After all, a person like Lishan Ancestor, even if he were in the secondary cities, would definitely be a distinguished guest.

"Everything will have an answer soon, no need to be so anxious. Wait until I get to the Gong Family, then everything may come to light."

Lin Fan said nonchalantly.

Even if the suddenly emergent expert was strong, in his current state, he was absolutely confident he could kill him.

"So, master, when do you plan to head to Modu?"

Lu Feifei was already somewhat tipsy at this moment.

She propped herself on the table with one hand, curiously watching Lin Fan.

Today, he had already promised Mr. Jiang that he would make a venture to Modu.

Now, apart from Jiang Yuting, everyone else was eagerly anticipating what would happen next in Modu.

"I need to make a trip to Evil Island first to retrieve some things, then I’ll head to Modu. So, you go back first, continue investigating the situation in Modu, and after I’m done, I’ll go and meet up with you there."

Lin Fan put down his wine glass, smiling warmly at the two women whose faces were flushed with red.

With the wine in place and the room already booked,

tonight was destined to be sleepless and restless.

"Evil Island!"

Upon hearing this, Ning Mengyao sobered up a bit.

Her memory of that place was extremely vivid.

It was there she first met Xu Zhi Rou, and where she experienced life and death.

Just thinking about that terrifying woman and the seemingly bottomless pit made her shiver uncontrollably.

"Why do you want to go to Evil Island? Could it be to find that Drought woman?"

"Correct, I indeed need to find the Drought woman, but the one I met last time was not her true self, just a tomb guardian. The real Drought woman is much more powerful," Lin Fan replied.

Lin Fan stood up laughing, capturing the two women, one on each side, in his embrace.

But the flame in his eyes had already risen significantly.

The Drought woman was also one of the Nine Corpses; retrieving her power could not only enhance him but also help in finding the reborn bodies of his beloved.

However, for now, he intended to devour the two women in his arms first.
