Chapter 53: This Operation is Too Familiar

"Finally done."

Lin Fan wiped the sweat off his forehead and looked at several metal cylinders, taking a deep breath.

The Storm Rain Pear Needle was not difficult for him to create, but it took time.

Indeed, it took time.

After all, filling each special needle into its designated position took a considerable amount of time.

However, despite the trouble, it was very useful when used.

Just take it out and lightly press it, and it could cause significant damage to a large area. Even a mouse would find it difficult to avoid a fatal blow.

"Erhu, call Erxiao, let's go fishing in the river behind the mountain."

Lin Fan said to Su Erhu, who was guarding by the side. After being busy for so long, it was time to relax.

He didn't have many hobbies, but fishing was one way he specifically used to relax his mind.

"Okay."

Su Erhu had now entered a life that was unimaginable before. His loyalty to Lin Fan was off the charts. Without saying a word, he quickly went to carry out the order.

Upon receiving this information, Wang Erxiao naturally had no objections and began to prepare the fishing tools.

The place where Lin Fan fished was in a small river behind the manor.

Although this river was not large, its length was not short. From the source to the end, it reached a length of nearly a thousand miles.

The small river in Wangjia Village was downstream from the river where Lin Fan was fishing. Along the way, it nurtured many villages and towns.

In terms of resources, this river could be said to be extremely abundant. Whether it was various fish or shellfish and crabs, as long as one put in some effort, they could catch a lot.

However, Lin Fan didn't plan to rely on it for sustenance. He just wanted to pass the time and relax.

This kind of life could be said to be very good.

However, he only caught a few wild crucian carp, and the steward of the manor came with two servants.

"Master, the junior master of the Divine Sword Villa has come again and wants to visit you."

The steward spoke up. As someone who served the junior master of the Divine Sword Villa, he was naturally familiar with him.

"Jian Ling has come again?"

Lin Fan put down the fishing rod in his hand and looked at the steward who had arrived with some doubt.

After being busy for a few days and finishing his work, he had planned to relax, but now it seemed impossible.

As for why he had come again, it wasn't difficult to guess.

"Yes, Master. The junior master has come to visit again, and she is accompanied by the second shopkeeper and her personal maid."

The steward respectfully nodded and relayed all the information.

Although in the past, he was chosen by the other party to be the steward, he was an old and cunning person who understood that times change. If he still held on to stubborn ideas, he would definitely not have a good outcome.

It was precisely because of this that he positioned himself correctly and centered everything around his current master.

"Are they in the reception hall?"

Knowing that an old friend had come again, Lin Fan naturally wouldn't ignore it, especially since this old friend had given him a great gift.

Moreover,

They were also partners.

"Yes, Master."

"Then let's go."

Lin Fan didn't dawdle and nodded at the two younger brothers. "Clean up the fish here and take them back to your sister-in-law."

"Don't worry, Fan Ge. Leave these things to us."

Although Wang Erxiao and the other person couldn't do much yet, they were still very capable in these small matters.

Lin Fan nodded again and didn't stay in this place, following the steward back.

Reception hall.

Although this place was simple, it had welcomed many explosively influential figures during these days.

Jian Ling from Divine Sword Villa sat quietly on a wooden chair, wearing a dark blue ancient-style long dress. Although it was not as simple and majestic as palace attire, the slim design showcased her tall and graceful figure at this moment.

The most important thing was her heroic temperament that was distinct from that of a woman, which always caught people's attention.

Beside her, apart from the second shopkeeper who led the way, there was also her personal maid, Xiao Qing, who was looking around.

"Miss, why hasn't Lin Gongzi arrived yet? Is it true that he has really cooperated with the people from Tyrannical Saber Villa and no longer intends to work with us at Divine Sword Villa?"

Xiao Qing frowned and said when she couldn't see the figure she was waiting for.

They came in a hurry this time because they received information that Dao Miaomiao, the young master of Tyrannical Saber Villa, was up to no good while they were away.

Although they were not sure about the specifics, they could guess what had happened.

After all, the two sides were archenemies, and they were very familiar with each other's personalities.

"Xiao Qing! Who gave you such thoughts? Lin Xiong is a person of integrity and would never do such a thing!"

Jian Ling heard these words and immediately scolded with a cold face.

Xiao Qing didn't dare to speak, but she muttered with a pout, "If that's not the case, why have we been waiting for so long? It's been almost an hour!"

"Are you getting impatient?"

This slight whisper would be difficult for ordinary people to hear, but Jian Ling was a skilled person in the martial world, and having sharp hearing and keen eyesight was just the most basic ability.

Even though she hurried over this time because she heard some bad news, she was worried about herself, not doubting Lin Fan himself.

She was just worried that she hadn't done well enough to satisfy her friend.

As for other things,

She really had none.

Xiao Qing was just complaining and didn't hold any prejudice, so after hearing the warning from her young miss, she immediately became scared and didn't dare to say anything more.

The second shopkeeper who accompanied them didn't even dare to fart. In front of the two people, he was indeed just a background character.

"Jian Ling, there's no need to be so serious. After all, Xiao Qing's words are not entirely wrong. I did come a bit late this time."

Just at this moment, Lin Fan's familiar voice entered their ears.

"Lin Xiong."

"Lin Gongzi."

"Lin Dashifu."

As soon as the words fell, the three of them stood up from their seats and greeted him with different titles.

"You're being too polite, please sit. It's because I was delayed by something, so don't blame me."

Lin Fan smiled and greeted the three of them, then sat in the main seat.

"How could we blame you? Lin Xiong, you're not blaming us for coming uninvited."

Jian Ling shook her head and said. She never acted coy in terms of her temperament.

The two of them chatted for a while, and their senses of each other were very good, so this casual conversation was naturally very pleasant.

When the atmosphere was about right, Jian Ling spoke up and stated the purpose of their visit this time.

"Lin Xiong, the reason for coming this time is to explain the matter from last time."

"Another explanation for me?"

Lin Fan heard these familiar words and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Dao Miaomiao had just asked Si River Gang to explain something to him not long ago, and now someone else wanted to explain something to him.

Was there really so much to explain?

"That's right."

Jian Ling didn't think too much about it and nodded, then took out a brocade box.

Lin Fan was originally just stunned, but when he saw the same familiar brocade box, his whole person couldn't help but freeze.

This set of actions,

Was too familiar, right?
