My Simulated Road to Immortality-Chapter 269 - 249: He XinXin, the Girl
Chapter 269: Chapter 249: He XinXin, the Girl
Translator: 549690339
The mysterious disappearance of the chubby Ye Feipeng had forced those on the deserted island, who had previously become somewhat complacent due to their significant advancements in cultivation, to become much more restrained.
They diligently followed the advice of “Senior Skull,” practicing in silence, and developing in a low-key manner.
However, things seemed a bit out of place with Zhang Zhiliang.
The news of his breakthrough to the God Transformation stage did not spread out.
As if nothing happened, he presented himself as he previously had, solely as an array master deeply engrossed in the study of Array Techniques.
However, Li Fan knew that a conspiracy of some sort must be brewing in the shadows.
Surviving the brutal war in Sky-spirit State in this life was not the only opportunity for Zhang Zhiliang’s breakthrough.
His mentality and concept seemed to have undergone certain changes.
Zhang Zhiliang did not make a particular effort to conceal this.
Hence, Li Fan, who had been in contact with Zhang and was adept at reading people, had keenly noticed the change.
And in Tianxuan Mirror, there had been slight price increases of varying degrees for materials used to create the Array Crown.
This seemed to further corroborate from the side that Zhang Zhiliang was discreetly preparing for something.
“I remember this year, the God Transforming Immortal Monarchs Lancang and Haoxuan are bound to wage a war in Misthaven Ocean.”
“As long as we watch to see if Immortal Zi Yun will intervene, we will know if Zhang Zhiliang has leaked the news of Crimson Blaze Ocean.”
“Everything is interconnected. By observing minutiae one can perceive the general, and by scrutinizing the situation one can predict the outcome.”
“Even though I spend all day inside the Tianxuan Mirror, the Formless Killing Machine lights up the view. By observing these trivial details that ordinary people may not notice and cross-referencing them against my past life experiences,”
“I can stay at home and know everything about the world.”
Thinking this, Li Fan couldn’t help but feel secretly delighted.
However, not long after he entered intensive cultivation with this rare joy, Li Fan suddenly changed his expression and interrupted his cultivation.
Because he found that the Formless Killing Machine monitoring He Zhenghao had unexpectedly malfunctioned.
Although still locked on, not only was he unable to sense the screen on the other side, but also he couldn’t even determine He’s exact location.
The Formless Killing Machine was a technique of Heaven and Earth’s Perception, used under false pretenses of Destiny.
Although there were instances of failure throughout his reincarnations, they were rare.
Like the previous situation in the Master’s Book House which the Green Bull Cart led to.
But that was a bizarre ancient entity that could engage in a battle with the Celestial Doctor. Its power was at least at the Unity-Path stage or beyond.
He Zhenghao hadn’t even broken through to the Gold Core, how could he possibly block Li Fan’s Formless Killing Machine?
What happened?
Li Fan attached great importance to Daoist He.
As the only subordinate he had subdued in this life, Li Fan was planning to find an excuse to take him out of Misthaven Ocean before the arrival of the Crimson Blaze Ocean.
He wanted to save him a life.
But this was based on the premise that He could not escape from Li Fan’s control.
After pondering for a moment, Li Fan pulled out a Communication Talisman and sent He Zhenghao a message.
“Daoist He, how have you been recently?” He didn’t receive a response for a long time.
Li Fan frowned.
“Daoist He, where are you now?”
He waited for a while, but there was still no response.
Touching his chin, Li Fan got up to leave Tianxuan Mirror and headed straight for the Dharma Dissemination Square.
Just as he was about to reach the teleportation array on Liuli Island, He
Zhenghao finally replied leisurely: “Huh? What does Daoist Li Fan need me
“Where else could I be? Of course, I’m on Liuli Island.
Li Fan paused, “Heh heh, that’s just right. It’s been a while since we last met.
Let’s catch up face to face.”
He Zhenghao instantly sent back a message, and his tone seemed a bit panicked.”
“How about another day? I have a visitor, it’s not very convenient…”
Li Fan smirked, ignoring He Zhenghao’s suggestion, and directly activated the teleportation array. 𝗳r𝐞ew𝚎bn𝚘ve𝚕.c𝗼𝗺
He intended to find out the means by which He Zhenghao managed to block the Formless Killing Machine.
A moment later, Li Fan saw He Zhenghao, his face riddled with embarrassment and regret.
However, his attention was now focused on another person who was present.
She was tall and beautiful.
At this moment, looking at the sudden appearance of Li Fan, her eyes were full of curiosity.
“Who is this?”
“Who is this?”
Li Fan and the girl asked in unison.
He Zhenghao coughed lightly, subtly positioning himself in front of the girl, blocking Li Fan’s view.
“Hahaha, my friend sure is quick to act, you say you’re coming, and here you are! ”
“Allow me to introduce, this is my daughter, He XinXin.”
“XinXin, this is Li Fan, a close friend of your father’s.”
He Zhenghao hid his embarrassment well and introduced the two to each other.
Li Fan’s gaze swept lightly over He XinXin, a strange look flashing in his eyes.
This girl was young, but seemed to be quite talented.
At such a young age, she was already at the final stage of foundation establishment.
Following the normal trajectory of history, if Li Fan had not transferred the
“The Hidden Dragon Technique of Mountains and Rivers” to He Zhenghao, Her cultivation might have been even higher than He Zhenghao’s!
More talented than her father, yet not living with him…
Li Fan quickly got it.
“Ah, Daoist He, you really know how to live off others. I wonder why you ran off to this Misthaven Ocean by yourself.” “Could it be that you’ve gotten old and useless?”
Li Fan maliciously speculated.
On the other side, seeing Li Fan staring so openly at his daughter, He Zhenghao became a bit anxious.
He quickly spoke up to distract Li Fan: “Hahaha, please sit, my friend.”
He hurriedly invited Li Fan to sit in the pavilion on top of the mountain.
“Daoist He, you really think of me as an outsider.”
“Why is it that I never heard you mention you had a daughter?” Li Fan sipped his tea, leisurely throwing out this deliberate comment.
As expected, upon hearing this, He XinXin immediately became somewhat unhappy.
She didn’t say anything, only using her beautiful eyes to glare at He Zhenghao in annoyance.
He Zhenghao secretly grumbled, and quickly tried to explain, “My friend, you have a short memory! Didn’t I say last time, I was going to introduce my daughter…”
Halfway through, He Zhenghao suddenly felt something was wrong and quickly stopped talking.
Feeling He XinXin’s increasingly doubtful gaze.
He Zhenghao got flustered, opened and closed his mouth, but for a time didn’t know how to explain.
Fortunately, Li Fan came to his rescue in time: “Hehe, now that you mention it,
I do remember.”
“At the time, you were clamoring for me to prepare a gift for her.” Li Fan clapped his head, acting as if he’d only just remembered.
“We’re meeting for the first time, and your father didn’t give me any heads up.
So I didn’t prepare a gift in advance.”
“Just take this little trinket.”
With that, Li Fan took out a flagpole, half a person’s height, from his Storage
Ring and handed it over.
He XinXin took the flagpole and saw that it was alternately colored black and yellow, with the words “Thousands of Immortal” written on it.
It was the Thousands of Immortal Array Banners that Li Fan had once used and bought as a backup in this world.
It was worth ten thousand contribution points.
“When a girl is out and about, she always needs to be safe. This Array Banners set, I’ll give it to you for protection,” Li Fan, deeply understanding the principle of ‘to get, one must give’, ignored He Zhenghao’s worried gaze, and said to He
XinXin with a big smile..
