- Chapter 64 (2/2)

She was Empress Lan, Mei Chen. She fed on ghosts to increase her cultivation. A single Qi from her could make every ordinary ghosts tremble with fear.

Her eye expression now was filled with cofusion. She hated Ning Fan but she couldn’t force herself to kill him. Besides, she might not be the opponent of Ning Fan currently.

‘I have already regained my peak Harmonious Spirit strength, but why am I still weaker than him? That incarnation just now should be one of the secret arts in the black jade. Why did this filthy man cultivated those shameless enchantments when there are so many good magical arts that he could learn?'

Mei Chen criticized him in her heart. She could see that Ning Fan didn’t intend to keep her as a cauldron or a pet, otherwise, he wouldn’t add the last option – to accompany him for half a month in the third region.

“What do you want?” The female demon gritted her teeth to suppress her murderous intent, but when she saw Ning Fan’s composed smile, her anger surged.

This was how ill-tempered she was.

“Come with me to the Third Region. I need to borrow your strength to suppress the ghosts again.” Ning Fan showed a faint smile.

“No way! If I enter the Third Region, the Gold Core underlings of the Bone Emperor would certainly come after me. I don’t want to go and die with you!” The female demon gritted her teeth.

“Bone Emperor? Oh, he is the true form of that White Bone Devil? Don’t worry. With the two of us combining our strengths, even if the Bone Emperor sends a peak Gold Core incarnation to come after us, we have nothing to fear. I need a large amount of Sense Beads to break through the Nascent Soul realm. If you could help me, I will have more millennium herbs for you. This isn’t a threat, this is a negotiation. You don’t need to feel unsatisfied.” Ning Fan said in an even tone.

“Your matter is unrelated to me. There is nothing more that could be discussed between us. I have already shown you a great deal of mercy for not taking your life. Why don’t you go and ask how ruthless, I, Empress Lan is?” Mei Chen knitted her brows. She would never go into the Third Region no matter what, but Ning Fan’s millennium herbs were too attractive to her.

‘Do I need to seize the herbs from this filthy man?' Mei Chen’s eyes flashed with a domineering light.

“If you don’t go and help me, I may die in the Third Region. At that time, you would certainly regret it.” Ning Fan smiled strangely, but this word made Mei Chen’s face blush.

“It’s best if you die. Why would I regret it?” Mei Chen’s tone wasn’t as firm as before. If it wasn’t that dangerous, she would probably provide some aid to Ning Fan.

“Just now, I have planted the Restrictive Spell in your sea of consciousness. If I die, you would die too.” Ning Fan smiled slightly. His words struck Mei Chen like lightning.

She immediately checked her sea of consciousness and found out that what he said was true. She was angered. She wouldn’t have thought that Ning Fan was such a rascal.

“Why did you do this to me? If you want to go in the Third Region to die, go in there by yourself. Why are you taking me with you to your grave?!”

She felt that her rage was going to erupt. She had never felt so angry in her life.

It was planted by Ning Fan’s incarnation when she was enchanted.

It was a Life-and-Death Spell. It was a kind of a restrictive spell but its effect was entirely different from any ordinary restrictive spell. An ordinary restrictive spell could only be planted if both parties agreed to it. After the spell was planted, the master could control the life and death of the person. As for the Life-and-Death Spell, it wasn’t as troublesome. You could plant such spell as long as your spirit sense was stronger than the target despite the target’s unwillingness.

However, no one was foolish enough to plant such a spell except for Ning Fan.

The name of the spell originated from its function. When two people were planted with the Life-and-Death-Spell, the both of them would die if the other person would die before the spell’s duration ended..

The lasting period of the spell was only half a month. After that, he would leave the forest and cut all the connections that he had with Mei Chen, but in this half a month, he was willing to borrow Mei Chen’s power to hunt for Gold Core ghosts.

Ning Fan hated losing. Since so many of his millennium herbs were eaten, he would need some repayment from her.

His opponent was a Void Fragmentation expert after all. Although they had gotten along for a few days, it couldn’t guarantee that she wouldn’t kill him when she regained her peak Gold Core strength in the Third Region. Although he wasn’t afraid, it could still be quite troublesome.

The Life-and-Death Spell was the best solution to this problem. It allowed him to use Mei Chen to suppress the ghosts and also freed him from the worry that Mei Chen would stab him in the back while they were in the Third Region.

“Die with me, or live with me!” Ning Fan showed a successful smile that angered Mei Chen so much.

“You are ruthless! I, Mei Chen, am threatened by someone like you for the first time, and most of all, I have no choice but to obey!”

Mei Chen gritted her teeth. She had never seen someone so idiotic that he would use his own life to threaten someone. Ning Fan was insane, he was definitely a madman!

She was a Void Fragmentation old expert, but she was so afraid of death. Ning Fan who was merely a Harmonious Spirit expert wasn’t afraid of danger that could cost his life.

Although danger and luck existed hand in hand in True Cultivation World, this brat had just taken an exceedingly high risk.

“Little Black, you must be obedient. When we enter the Third Region, you should turn into a small sable and stay in my embrace.” Ning Fan’s smile was enraging, his words could infuriate the listener even more.

“My name is Mei Chen, not Little Black! Quickly, give me some clothes to wear now. I dropped my storage pouch in the Third Region. I have no clothes with me now! Since you want me to stay with you for half a month, so be it! After that, get as far away from me as you can!”

“As you wish.”

Ning Fan patted his storage pouch to retrieve some clothes, he then threw it to the female demon.

It was the uniform of a male. It still had Ning Fan’s masculine smell. She frowned but still wore it anyway. Since she was a demon, her sense of smell was sharper than any human. Her nose was full of Ning Fan’s scent right now.

This was a disgusting smell! He has a disgusting smile! This has a disgusting warmth!

She had cummed because of Ning Fan.

She was planted with the Life-and-Death Spell because of Ning Fan. She was forced to go to the Third Region because of Ning Fan.

“I am not going to live or die with you, you filthy man! I hope that you will die soon so that I could continue my happy life!”

The was the first time that Empress Lan, Chen Mei, hated a man so much, but she was still unable and not determined enough to kill him.

Her body shook and twitched, thinking about becoming a small sable and stay in Ning Fan’s embrace again. It disgusted her very much.

What she didn’t realise was that for the past few days, when she was still with Ning Fan, those were the safest days of her life. She didn’t need to worry that she would be eaten by another beasts while sleeping. She didn’t need to open her eyes to face the groups of bowing ghosts. All of the danger had been shouldered by Ning Fan alone. Her main role during the next few days was to be a small sable that hid under her master’s embrace for protection, waiting for her master to gently and comfortably stroke her.

When her cultivation grade was sealed up, it had somehow sealed her coldest and most frigid behaviour as well.

Many years later, perhaps the smile of this infuriating man would still linger in her mind and wouldn’t be erased.

…

A day later. A youth in white clothes and black cloak was holding a small sable with one arm, while his other arm was holding the Separation Slayer. After eradicating the entire Second Region, he entered the Third Region.

The small sable consumed a few more millennium herbs and regained her early Gold Core realm strength. For an instant, countless of ghosts in human form in a thousand mile radius were shaken.

“Empress Lan, Chen Mei has returned!”

In the merit hall of Sinister Sparrow Sect, Ning Fan was ranked just below Yan Zhuiyun. Ning Fan was now ranked 46th.

189, 754 contribution points!

Yan Zhuiyun’s face was slightly nervous. He was ranked at 45th place with the contribution points of only 190, 000. He would be surpassed very soon.

Although he already knew that his rank would be surpassed by Ning Fan before this, he hadn’t thought that Ning Fan could do this after just seventeen days.

When a flash was seen on the merit monument, Yan Zhuiyun held his breath. He could feel his heart pounding inside him.

“He is going to exceed my points! He is worthy of being called the young master. I can’t be compared to him.”

He was sighing before he gaped at the latest changes.

In the merit hall, countless of Harmonious Spirit experts, including the Gold Core old experts were watching the monument in astonishment and disbelief.

Ning Fan’s contribution points was suddenly raised by 2000 points!

Only by killing an early Gold Core ghost could earn him 2000 points—he had entered the Third Region.

“He could even kill a Gold Core ghost now? Not possible!” None of the Gold Core old experts dared to underestimate Ning Fan anymore.

Lan Mei felt a sense of worry, the thing that she was most concerned about has just happened.

Why did Ning Fan lack a sense propriety? He even entered the Third Region. What was the use of giving him the map that she robbed?

“Father! You have to save Ning Fan! There are peak Gold Core ghosts in the Third Region.” Lan Mei pleaded.

“No need for that.” Sinister Sparrow smiled bitterly.

Before this, Ning Fan could even kill a Spirit Severing old expert. So he must be quite prepared to enter the Third Region.

Sinister Sparrow couldn’t believe it anyway. He wasn’t sure how Ning Fan would deal with the attacks of peak Gold Core ghosts if he was besieged, he was merely a Harmonious Spirit expert after all.
