Chapter 801, Why Must Women Make Things Difficult for Women?

Translator: Silavin

 

“Hehe, good.” Ning Shuan’er smiled, her expression revealing traces of madness.

 

Lu Fan glanced at her, genuinely troubled by how to handle this crazy woman.

 

“That…” Cui Ziyi could now see that the relationship between Lu Fan and Ning Shuan’er was rather complex. It was a love-hate relationship. But at least, right now, those two were not actually fighting.

 

Moreover, from a certain perspective, Ning Shuan’er was also a ‘friend’ of Lu Fan, and she did not want to be discourteous in any way.

 

“Sister Ning, you’ve come all this way. You must be hungry, right? Why not have lunch here? My treat.”

 

Ning Shuan’er touched her flat stomach, accepting Cui Ziyi’s enthusiastic hospitality without the slightest hesitation, nodding with a smile. “Okay, then I’ll have to trouble you.”

 

“It’s nothing,” Cui Ziyi covered her mouth with a laugh. “Chasing one’s Husband naturally requires strength. You need to eat your fill to have the energy to chase, right?”

 

“Honestly, the relationship between you and Lu Fan is truly something I’ve never seen before. Seeing it today is quite eye-opening. I don’t know whether I should help you or help Lu Fan. So, I figured I won’t get involved in your business. From the looks of it now, you two shouldn’t come to blows. Since you’re a guest from afar, I might as well host both of you properly.”

 

“What do you mean ‘guest from afar’?” Lu Fan muttered under his breath, clearly complaining.

 

Cui Ziyi simply smiled and said. “Aiya, why must I, a woman, make things difficult for another woman? I’m truly no match for you. If it were someone else, I might just tie you up and let Sister Ning complete the marriage.”

 

Lu Fan increasingly felt that he really couldn’t stay in Southern Black Port any longer.

 

[I must quickly find the materials I need, then head straight back to Dragon Capital! This crazy woman! Let her chase across Dragon Country for days on end! See if I care!]

 

Cui Ziyi, playing the host, immediately arranged for her subordinates to prepare Monster Meat and properly arrange lunch for Lu Fan and Ning Shuan’er.

 

At the same time, there were people injured by Ning Shuan’er, who needed to return for treatment. Cui Ziyi also arranged for them to go back while bringing in a fresh batch to guard the Abyssal Rift.

 

An hour later, Lu Fan, Cui Ziyi, and Ning Shuan’er sat in a crude tent, the table before them laden with meat dishes.

 

Lu Fan drank the inferior alcohol, barely eating, maintaining a dark expression throughout while watching Cui Ziyi and Ning Shuan’er chatting and laughing beside him.

 

In just this short time, the two women had become quite familiar to one another.

 

Truth be told, from certain angles these two women were remarkably similar. Both were strong-willed types who spoke and acted with considerable autonomy. So, although their personalities differed greatly, they were fundamentally of the same breed, communicating with perfect harmony.

 

To the point where even Ning Shuan’er injuring Cui Ziyi’s subordinates was dismissed with a wave of Cui Ziyi’s hand, saying fights were how friendships formed.

 

During this hour, Ning Shuan’er and Cui Ziyi talked about many things, even mentioning how Lu Fan had originally tricked Ning Shuan’er.

 

Cui Ziyi directly joined Ning Shuan’er in cursing Lu Fan as truly despicable for ruining her engagement, completely disregarding the bewildered Lu Fan sitting right beside them.

 

Left with no choice, Lu Fan simply drank on his own, not disturbing their enthusiastic chatter.

 

“Why don’t you two chat while I go out for a walk?” Finally, Lu Fan couldn’t help himself. He did not want to remain in this tent any longer.

 

Hearing Lu Fan wanted to leave, Ning Shuan’er immediately stood up. “Where are you going? I’m coming too.”

 

“I’m just going to walk around nearby. You can continue to chat with her. I still have things to do here, so I won’t run away!” Lu Fan said irritably.

 

Ning Shuan’er looked at Lu Fan, clearly not believing him.

 

Or rather, even knowing Lu Fan wouldn’t leave this place, she still intended to follow him every step of the way. That had been her plan all along, after all. Her sole purpose was to make Lu Fan uncomfortable. When he felt uncomfortable, she felt greatly comforted.

 

Seeing this, Cui Ziyi pulled Ning Shuan’er’s hand. “Sister Ning, why not stay here? Lu Fan won’t leave, right?”

 

“You’ve been bothering him for this long already. There’ll be plenty of time to annoy him later. No need to worry about this brief moment, yes? Just stay here with me and chat a bit more. If that won’t do, I’ll have someone follow him. Wouldn’t that work?”

 

Ning Shuan’er pursed her lips, surprisingly agreeing and sitting back down.

 

Cui Ziyi shot Lu Fan a meaningful glance, seemingly telling him that although she’d been helping Ning Shuan’er curse him, she was actually on his side.

 

Lu Fan naturally did not trust this ‘two-faced’ Cui Ziyi. Still, obtaining a moment’s peace was welcomed.

 

He quickly took advantage of Cui Ziyi restraining Ning Shuan’er, left the tent, summoned out his Bone Wings, and flew away.

 

Lu Fan’s purpose was indeed just to get some fresh air.

 

Right now, he truly had nothing to do but to kill time.

 

After finding an unpopulated area, Lu Fan thought for a moment, then opened the Territory Transportation Array and returned to Shadow Isle, hoping to encounter a few normal women there. Chatting with them would ‘cleanse’ his poor wounded Soul.

 

But upon arriving he discovered the entire Shadow Isle held only him, there was no other living Human. Jian Ying and the others must still be on the front lines battling Fallen Corpse Monsters, temporarily unable to return.

 

With no alternative, Lu Fan simply stripped off his clothes and soaked in the Fortune Glowing Spring, relaxing comfortably while raising his Attributes somewhat.

 

After a full hour or so, Lu Fan finally felt his mood had calmed considerably. Only then did he dress up and pass through the Transport Array back to the Abyssal Rift’s vicinity.

 

“By now, those two should be done chatting, right? Hopefully after returning, that crazy woman will obediently leave and stop bothering me…” Though knowing it was impossible, Lu Fan still hoped.

 

When he returned to the Abyssal Rift area, he suddenly discovered a problem.

 

At this moment, the Abyssal Rift clearly had many more people present. They were standing in confrontation with the original Heavenly Dragon Gang members.

 

Judging by their attire, the opposition seemed to be natives from South Country.

 

Obviously, they must be from another gang.

 

Lu Fan glanced at these South Country people. Seeing no impressive experts among them, he simply descended publicly, arriving before the Heavenly Dragon Gang, beside Old Ninth.

 

“What’s happening? Is another gang here to seize the Abyssal Rift?” Lu Fan casually asked Old Ninth.
