Chapter 174 Brilliant Light City (1)
Lin Fan couldn\'t help revealing an evil smile when he heard this, but then he quickly suppressed it before saying, "They\'re feeling a bit tired, so they\'re still resting."
To say that they were a bit tired was an understatement. In reality, they found it hard to move after what Lin Fan had done last night.
Even with all of them dividing up Lin Fan\'s lust, it still wasn\'t enough…
In fact, what they didn\'t know was that them getting together was actually what stoked the flames inside Lin Fan even more. He wouldn\'t have been that passionate if it was with each of them alone, but having all those girls in bed with him ignited something deep inside of him…
It was just too bad that they didn\'t know.
Duanmu Xiao Yi revealed a suspicious look when she heard this, but Lin Fan quickly deflected these suspicions by changing the topic.
After breakfast was over, Lin Fan headed off to the gate of the town. There was already a caravan that was waiting there for him, which was the caravan that was heading out to Brilliant Light City.
This was a caravan that was made up of Yue Lan\'s subordinates and they had come here early in the morning to set everything up. After all, this was their chance to impress the big boss behind Yue Lan, so they wouldn\'t let this chance go.
But when Lin Fan arrived and saw how hard everyone was working, he couldn\'t help feeling a bit embarrassed.
While he had been lying in bed with his girls, these people had been here working hard in the early morning chill. Now that the fall harvest was over, the temperature was slowly dropping as winter set in, so it was quite cold in the mornings.
But these people all happily greeted him when he arrived.
They didn\'t seem to mind at all that he had just shown up now. That was the privilege that the boss should have.
But of course, Lin Fan didn\'t really act like a boss since he didn\'t know how to act like a boss.
It didn\'t take long before there was a harmonious atmosphere that filled the caravan.
The employees found that Lin Fan wasn\'t as hard to approach as they had thought and he was actually quite the friendly person.
After chatting with the members of the caravan, Lin Fan headed inside so that the caravan could head off. But when he came into the carriage, he found two people that he was surprised by.
It was Lu\'er and Lan\'er who he had saved last time.
After being surprised by their appearance, he couldn\'t help asking, "What are you two doing here?"
Lu\'er and Lan\'er looked at each other before saying, "We\'re here to guard the caravan. Is there something wrong?"
Lin Fan shook his head and said, "No, what I mean is why are you working? Shouldn\'t you be resting after being captured? Why would Yue Lan make you work so soon after that traumatic experience?"
As he said this, he couldn\'t help knitting his brows slightly.
Lu\'er and Lan\'er felt a bit of warmth flowing into their heart when they realized that Lin Fan was speaking out of concern for them. It even made them want to follow his instructions and rest instead of going with this caravan.
But for their own ambitions, they couldn\'t do that.
This was a chance that their mistress had prepared for them, so how could they let it go?
So Lan\'er stepped up and said, "We actually asked the mistress to give us this chance. We let everyone down last time with the bandit case, so we want to make up for it."
Then Lu\'er added, "Plus, we weren\'t that injured when we were captured by the bandits, so we really didn\'t need to rest that long."
The two of them looked at each other before turning to Lin Fan and saying at the same time in a firm voice, "We weren\'t violated by them."
Lin Fan was taken aback by this as he just said, "Oh." But then he said, "But there\'s no need for you to rush into this. There\'s other things that you can do to help instead of this. You can work in the…"
But then Lan\'er cut him off by saying, "We know, but we want to do this."
Lu\'er added, "Do you not want us here?"
Lin Fan looked at the two pairs of large bright eyes looking at him and he gave a sigh before shaking his head. He then said with a smile, "Of course not, I\'m happy to work with you."
He knew better than to keep pushing when he saw the way they looked at him.
He knew that if he forced them to stay, all he would do was put a scar on their hearts.
They were most likely feeling bad about themselves for what had happened with the bandits, so they wanted to show that they could be useful to everyone.
While he couldn\'t say the same about his business in Brilliant Light City, at the very least, this caravan trip wouldn\'t be as dangerous. So it wasn\'t a problem for them to come along if they wanted to.
Even if it was dangerous, he didn\'t believe that he wouldn\'t be able to solve it with his level of cultivation.
After the "dual cultivation" from last night, Lin Fan had reached the peak of the Ninth Qi Gathering Realm and was only just a step away from breaking through to the Foundation Realm. Though that final step was much harder than he thought.
It was like the gap between heaven and earth and he had no idea where to even start.
Even if he had listened to Mu Bao Bao\'s advice before, it really was harder than he thought once he had to personally take this step.
Still, he wasn\'t in a rush to do that right now.
He knew that the Foundation Realm was an important step to building his future
foundations as a cultivator, so if he were to rush this, he would regret it in the future. He had also found a different path to increase his power after the gift he had received from Weiss, so currently he was also slowly taking his time walking down that path.
The only thing that Lin Fan didn\'t know was that after he turned his back on the two girls, they looked at each other with sly smiles. They had another plan that they didn\'t tell Lin Fan and he would only find out after they arrived in Brilliant Light City.
As he had expected, the trip to Brilliant Light City was quite the boring and slow trip.
Because they were posing as a normal caravan, Lin Fan wasn\'t able to use Hi to make the trip go faster.
At a normal pace, it would have taken them around fifteen days to arrive in Brilliant Light City, but they didn\'t move at a normal pace. That was because the carriage that they brought with them was filled with products.
They were heading to Brilliant Light City to start a new shop, so it was normal for them to carry all of these things.
So in the end, it took them around twenty days before they were able to see Brilliant Light City.
But while this trip was slow and boring, there were some parts of it that were bad for Lin Fan\'s heart.
No matter where he went, Lu\'er and Lan\'er would always stick to him like they were his bodyguards.
At first he didn\'t mind it, but that soon changed when they showed that they would follow him to every single place that he went.
During their first bathroom break, they followed him into the woods where he went to void his bowels. They would have even stood right beside him while he was doing his business if he didn\'t stop them.
Then when they found a nice natural hot spring to take a bath in, when it was Lin Fan\'s turn to get in, they followed him. The worst part was that they had taken off all their clothes and had even offered to wash his back for him.
Though it was clear by their eyes and the way that they acted that they weren\'t planning on stopping there.
For Lin Fan who had rejected them and hadn\'t changed his mind just yet, it was awkward when they were being this aggressive.
He didn\'t want to reject them flat out like before since he had seen how much it had hurt them, but his heart also wouldn\'t allow him to accept them because of the same issue as before. This feeling became even stronger after that final night that he had spent with his girls.
So in the end, it was very awkward for him as he even took to running away from them to avoid talking to them.
In the end, his greatest weakness was a girl\'s tears.
During the middle of the twentieth day, they finally entered the range of Brilliant Light City and they were able to see the city walls.
It didn\'t look that impressive from a distance, but the closer Lin Fan got, the more amazed he was by it.
This really was a city that was worthy of the title of main city!
