Villain: Fairy, please offer your loyalty

Seeing Gu Fan's gesture of supporting her waist, Jiang Qingge's face turned even redder.

She recalled how she had groveled before this great demon in order to "save the world."

"Holy Son...has this servant not served you well?"

Jiang Qingge's voice sounded somewhat aggrieved.

"Okay, very good."

Gu Fan snapped out of his daze and reached out to pinch her smooth cheek.

"Especially the last move in the secret realm, which has a lot of Buddhist essence, I am very pleased."

"ah!"

Jiang Qingge was so embarrassed that she almost threw the basin in her hand.

After a quick wash, Gu Fan walked out of the palace feeling refreshed.

Inside the main hall, Nalan Yanran had been waiting for a long time.

After these few days of nourishment, the once aloof young sect leader is now radiant, exuding the charm of a mature woman in every gesture.

"Young master."

Nalan Yanran bowed respectfully.

"Um."

Gu Fan sat down in the main seat, took the spiritual tea handed to him by Xiao Ling'er, took a sip, and then slowly said:

"The matter with the Yunlan Sect is about to end. This Holy Son is tired of playing around with it."

Upon hearing this,

Nalan Yanran's delicate body trembled slightly, a hint of panic flashing in her eyes:

"Young master... are you leaving?"

"What? You can't bear to part with me?"

Gu Fan looked at her with a half-smile.

"Don't worry, this Holy Son isn't the kind of person who would be heartless after taking advantage of someone."

As he spoke, he casually tossed out a storage ring and a pitch-black token.

"This ring contains ten million top-grade spirit stones, as well as several immortal-level cultivation techniques suitable for you. As for this token..."

"This is a branch of the 'Primordial Demonic Decree.' From today onwards, you are my representative in the Northern Region of the Azure Cloud Continent, and also the leader of the Primordial Demonic Sect's lower realm branch."

"From now on, the Yunlan Sect is in your hands. Run it well, and if anyone dares to disobey, the Primordial Demon Token will send reinforcements for you."

Nalan Yanran held the token, completely dumbfounded.

Ten million spirit stones?

Immortal-level cultivation technique?

And he also has the identity of the branch leader of the Demonic Sect?

This overwhelming wealth just fell into her lap like that?

This isn't being abandoned; it's a direct promotion, a raise, and becoming CEO!

"Yanran...thank you so much, young master!!"

Nalan Yanran was so excited that she knelt down on the ground, her eyes filled with fervent worship and unwavering loyalty.

"Yanran will not fail your trust, young master! Even if it means my own destruction, I will protect this legacy for you!"

[Ding! Nalan Yanran's loyalty has reached 100% (Ultimate Simp)! Villain Value +9999!]

Get it done.

Gu Fan nodded in satisfaction.

This is the effect he wanted.

Leaving Nalan Yanran here would not only help him continuously plunder resources from the lower realm, but also allow her to act as a spy, monitoring Ye Chen's every move.

The long-absent system notification sound rang out again.

[Ding! A new Atmospheric Fortuner has been detected!]

[Coordinates: Celestial Realm, Holy Path Academy.]

[Name: Lin Feng]

[Genre: Master Descending the Mountain/Divine Healer/X-ray Vision]

[Golden Finger: Inheritance of the Ghost Valley Medical Immortal + Supreme Clairvoyant Eyes.]

[Respectable Fiancées: 7+]

[Current plot point: Following his master's orders, he descends the mountain to annul the engagement, fulfilling the marriage contract, and is about to show off by enrolling in the Heavenly Path Academy.]

"Lin Feng? A miracle doctor? X-ray vision?"

Gu Fan's eyes lit up immediately upon hearing about the configuration.

This is the standard protagonist in cultivation novels!

"Having X-ray vision is great..."

Gu Fan stroked his chin, a wicked smile typical of villains appearing on his face.

"If I dug this thing out and put it on myself, wouldn't that be..."

"Ahem, I'm a respectable person."

Gu Fan put away his bold ideas, stood up, and waved his hand dismissively:

"Uncle Fu, prepare the car!"

"Target: Celestial Evolution Realm, Holy Path Academy!"

"This holy son is going to meet this 'miracle doctor'."

Although Nalan Yanran was reluctant to leave, she knew that staying would be the greatest help she could give to the young master.

Xiao Ling'er and Jiang Qingge were specifically mentioned by Gu Fan.

These two assistants must be carried with them at all times.

After a while.

The Nine Dragons Incense Chariot rose into the air once more, transforming into a golden light amidst a deafening dragon roar, and hurtling towards the outer boundary.

While passing through a desolate mountain, Gu Fan caught a glimpse of a disheveled figure covered in bandages through the car window.

"Tsk, so you're actually healing here?"

He curled his lips into a smile, causing the imperial carriage to hover in mid-air.

at the foot of the mountain.

Behind a huge rock.

Covered in bandages and looking disheveled, Ye Chen stared intently at the golden chariot that had suddenly suspended in mid-air, his eyes burning with the flames of revenge.

"Gu Fan...aren't you going to get out of here?"

Ye Chen gritted his teeth and quietly hid in the soil.

"Get out of here! The farther the better! Once I become a true immortal, I will definitely come looking for you! I will take Ling'er back!"

Just when he thought Gu Fan couldn't see him, the window of the imperial carriage suddenly opened.

Gu Fan's handsome yet repulsive face peeked out, holding a cup of spiritual tea, and raised it towards the direction where Ye Chen was hiding:

"Brother Ye Chen, stop hiding, I know you're there."

Ye Chen froze.

We've been discovered?!

"This holy son is about to go to the Heavenly Evolution Realm to enjoy himself. I've heard that there are beauties everywhere and geniuses like rain; it must be much more interesting than this poor, remote place."

Gu Fan's voice, amplified by spiritual energy, echoed through the valley like thunder:

"Ling'er, come, say goodbye to your childhood sweetheart. After all, you may never see him again after this."

As he spoke, Gu Fan pulled Xiao Ling'er from behind him and forced her to lean out of the window.

"Ye...Brother Ye Chen..."

When Xiao Ling'er saw that familiar figure, tears welled up in her eyes, and she instinctively wanted to call out.

However, the force of the large hand behind him suddenly increased.

"Ugh...!"

Xiao Ling'er's delicate body trembled, and she almost cried out, quickly covering her lips.

Gu Fan grinned mischievously and whispered in her ear:

"Tell him you are very happy, and let him give up."

Xiao Ling'er's body trembled violently as she felt Gu Fan's increasingly outrageous actions, her heart breaking.

She shouted with all her might:

"Brother Ye Chen... um... you... you've forgotten Ling'er, haven't you..."

"Young Master Gu was... really... good to me... Ah... We... we'll have nothing to do with each other anymore..."

Every word of those words pierced Ye Chen's heart.

"puff!!"

Ye Chen spat out a mouthful of blood, staggered backward, and finally collapsed helplessly to his knees in the mud.

"Aaaaaaah!! Gu Fan!! I swear I won't rest until I kill you!!!"

[Ding! Ye Chen's Dao Heart has suffered a critical blow! Luck Value -1000! Host's "Villain Value" has exploded!]

"That's right, only anger can make people improve."

Gu Fan laughed heartily, no longer glancing at the loser, and waved his hand dismissively:

"Let's go! Destination: Heavenly Evolution Realm, Holy Path Academy!"

Rumble!!

The Nine Dragon Chariot started up again, this time without stopping, tearing through the void and transforming into a stream of light that rushed into the vast boundary passage.

Only Nalan Yanran remained standing at the highest point of the Yunlan Sect, watching the vanishing golden light, her eyes filled with fanaticism:

"My lord, go forth and conquer the world with peace of mind. I, Yanran, will safeguard this home front for you with impregnable fortifications!"
