Chapter 75: Chapter 75: Should they be siblings or spouses?_1

"Run? I won’t run," Ning Fan glanced at Qiu Li and said calmly, shaking his head.

"Qiu Li, what are you talking about!" Xu Yourong frowned, trying to stop her.

Ignoring Xu Yourong’s interruption, Qiu Li continued, "Mr. Ning, Divine Tune Sect wields immense power, with numerous martial arts experts and figures with unusual abilities among its ranks. This Cui Laosi is but a run-of-the-mill character within their sect. Now that you have killed him, if Divine Tune Sect seeks revenge, even if you are not afraid, what if it brings trouble to Miss Xu and the Xu Family?"

"Qiu Li, don’t say anymore!"

Xu Yourong called out loudly to stop her, then said, "Since I’ve already publicly announced that Ning Fan is my boyfriend, I will support whatever decision he makes! Cui Laosi was morally depraved, attempted to seek wealth and cause harm, and even used family to threaten Ning Fan. Such a person deserves more than death!"

"Miss..."

Qiu Li wanted to say more but was again resolutely stopped by Xu Yourong.

"Miss Xu, thank you for your support," Ning Fan nodded to Xu Yourong and said, "Don’t worry, I won’t drag you or the Xu Family into this."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Now that we are boyfriend and girlfriend, how can there be any talk of dragging into this? Shouldn’t we share both fortune and misfortune together?" Xu Yourong said, pretending to be angry.

"Uh... Miss Xu, ’to share both fortune and misfortune together’ is what sworn brothers do. Are you wanting to become sworn siblings with me?" Ning Fan said deliberately.

"Ah? I certainly don’t want to become sworn siblings with you. What I want to be to you is..."

Xu Yourong stopped midway, her face suddenly turning red, as she closed her mouth.

Because she had almost blurted out, ’I want to be your spouse.’

’Tsk tsk tsk, how could I have almost said that...’ Xu Yourong thought to herself inside, quickly turning away.

Afterward, Li Wanshan was overwhelmed with gratitude toward Ning Fan, offering to give him the entire Wanshan Group.

Xu Yan was even more insistent on serving Ning Fan as a slave or servant.

Ning Fan waved his hand to refuse, then treated Li Wanshan and Xu Yan along with others, before leaving with Xu Yourong.

Since Ning Fan didn’t have a car, Xu Yourong and Qiu Li drove him back home before departing.

"Miss, Ning Fan has really stirred up trouble with Divine Tune Sect this time. You should sever ties with him; otherwise, he will truly affect you and the Xu Family," Qiu Li said worriedly as she drove on the way back.

"I believe Ning Fan will handle the matter with Divine Tune Sect well," Xu Yourong said with a smile.

"Miss, why do you believe so strongly in Ning Fan?" Qiu Li said, discontented.

"Because he always surprises me! Look, since I’ve known him, he has constantly amazed me, letting me see more and more of his merits! His medical skills, martial arts, culinary talents... Today, I even witnessed his Fengshui techniques... I believe that Ning Fan is completely capable of handling Divine Tune Sect!", Xu Yourong said confidently.

"Alas, Miss, saying ’just Divine Tune Sect’—you really are..." Qiu Li sighed helplessly.

...

Inside Ning Fan’s villa.

It was already late. Lin Xiaoling had gone to sleep, and Ning Fan was alone on the villa’s rooftop, breathing in the cool air and exhaling a long breath.

It was only now that his nerves had relaxed a bit.

Today was his first time killing someone.

Even though the man he had killed was a villain like Cui Laosi, and even though it was in self-defense, it was still killing.

To say that Ning Fan wasn’t emotionally affected would be impossible.

After receiving his mother’s legacy, as Ning Fan’s strength grew, he gradually came in contact with people and things he could not have encountered before.

In the future, he wouldn’t be able to think from the perspective of an ordinary person anymore.

"Anyway, whether saving people or killing, as long as I don’t go against my heart, that’s all that matters," Ning Fan muttered to himself as his mood gradually calmed down.

Then, he transferred a trace of Spiritual Power into the jade ring on his left hand.

Hiss hiss!

In an instant, three swirls of Evil Qi burst out—one big and two small.

The two larger ones were the Filial Aura he had ripped in half; the smaller one was the Evil Qi of a child.

Hiss hiss...

After the three swirls of Evil Qi emerged, they floated in front of Ning Fan in a somewhat fearful manner, trembling.

They all knew the extent of Ning Fan’s power, knowing that he could eradicate them with a mere wave of his hand, so they were excessively well-behaved.

Ning Fan grabbed the two halves of the Filial Aura in each hand and smashed them together in the middle. The two swirls instantly merged into one, returning to a complete Filial Aura.

"Now, you have two choices: first, to be completely eradicated by me; second, to obey me from now on. Do you know how to choose?" Ning Fan wasn’t sure if the Evil Qi could understand him, but he tried speaking to them.

Hiss hiss! Hiss hiss!

The next second, both the Filial Aura swirls made weak sounds, as if they agreed in a flattering manner.

Then, both swirls actively flew towards Ning Fan’s hand, eagerly penetrating back into the jade ring.

They could not speak, so they could only show their choice through actions.

"You’re not stupid," Ning Fan nodded, pleased.

Although these two swirls of Filial Aura were no good things, Ning Fan had an intuition that they might be useful in the future.

They were like a knife, inherently neutral, and what they could achieve depended on whose hands they were in.

After subduing the Filial Aura, Ning Fan took out his phone and called Baldy Qiang, "Does the underworld have a way to send out public messages?"

"Yes, Mr. Ning, do you want to release a message in the underworld?" Baldy Qiang asked, puzzled.

"Mhm, post an anonymous message in the underworld for me, saying the person who killed Cui Laosi of Divine Tune Sect is Ning Fan, and it has nothing to do with anyone else," Ning Fan said.

"What? Mr. Ning, you killed someone from Divine Tune Sect?" Baldy Qiang exclaimed in shock on the other end of the phone.

"What’s the matter? Are you afraid to send the message?" Ning Fan asked.

"No, it’s not that, Mr. Ning, please don’t get me wrong, I just want to tell you, Divine Tune Sect is no small entity. It has a notorious reputation in our Xia Country’s underworld! If you really killed someone from Divine Tune Sect, it’s better not to spread the news, to avoid retaliation. But now you’re actually going to release such a message—that’s not..." Baldy Qiang said anxiously, stopping there.

"You’re trying to say that I’m seeking my own death, aren’t you?" Ning Fan said indifferently.
