Chapter 16: Tianshang Guqin

'That's right, I'm the protagonist! These tribulations will only make me stronger. This upper realm scion, wait until I ascend to the upper realm. I'll make sure his entire family meets their end! Hahaha.'

At this moment, Lin Fan had mentally sentenced Qin Tian's family to death, a hint of madness flashing in his eyes. If Gong Xiaoyue and Emperor Qin heard about this, they would probably die laughing. 

Lin Ritian saw his son perk up again, and nodded to himself in approval. Known as the madman, his son, the little madman, should indeed have this kind of fierceness and confidence. 

"Fan'er, let's go meet your mother."

Lin Ritian led Lin Fan behind the waterfall. Behind the waterfall, there was a cave, dim and damp, covered in moss. In the depths, there was a small mound with a tiny red flower planted on it.

"Is this withering flower my mother?" Lin Fan pointed at the red flower in front of him and asked.

"Yes, she is your mother," Lin Ritian said, gently caressing the petals. "Back then, when I was besieged by five Soul Transformation realm experts, it was Ao'er who sacrificed herself, allowing me to enter the Soul Transformation realm!"

Uh... Lin Fan, as a transmigrator, was no longer the unfortunate child Lin Ritian had. When he transmigrated, he consumed the original soul, and as a modern transmigrator, he called Lin Ritian dad, which was already quite unpleasant. After all, in his eyes, this so-called Lin Ritian was just a cheap old man, no different from a stranger. Now, he only needed Lin Ritian's help. However, asking him to call a flower 'mother' was a bit hard to accept.

But Lin Ritian didn't seem to mind Lin Fan's attitude. In the past few days, Lin Ritian had put Lin Fan through rigorous training, using various rare treasures. In just a few days, Lin Fan had progressed from the 9th level of the Qi Training Realm to the 6th level of the Bone Forging Realm. With the practice of Fiery Flame Thirteen Swords, his entire demeanor had changed. Now, he appeared bold, arrogant, and somewhat like a little madman, which made Lin Ritian nod.

Walking on the street, recalling the events of the past few days, Lin Fan was now looking forward to meeting Qin Tian again. He wanted to use the blood-red greatsword to cut him into pieces. Lin Ritian also promised him that he would take care of the experts behind Qin Tian. What was there to fear?

"Hmm!" Lin Fan walked up to a small stall, looking at a fan-shaped iron piece on the stall. With a thought, he stopped and began browsing other items on the stall. Instead of examining the fan-shaped iron piece, he chose to look at other items.

'Hmph, if I just grab it directly, he will definitely raise the price. I'm a transmigrator, I've seen this kind of plot countless times in novels. These locals not only have limited knowledge but also have dull brains, heh heh.' Lin Fan chuckled in his heart. The protagonist spotted an item on the small stall that others might not recognize, so he pretended to pick other things, and then would ask to include the actual treasure as a gift. This kind of plot had been overused in novels.

After browsing for a while, Lin Fan finally picked up a small tripod and asked, "Boss, how much is this?"

"10 low-grade Spirit Stones," the stall owner said indifferently.

"This is too expensive, isn't it? Can you make it cheaper?" Lin Fan complained, but his eyes were already shining with wisdom.

"Take it or leave it," the stall owner replied casually.

"Well, forget it. I like this thing; I'll take it back as a decoration. So, I'll buy this small tripod, and you can throw in this small iron piece as well. I'll use it to level a table leg at home." Lin Fan held the small tripod and the iron piece together, handing over 10 low-grade Spirit Stones to the stall owner.

The stall owner sneered, gave him a glance, and said, "The small tripod is 10 low-grade Spirit Stones, and this iron piece is 3000 low-grade Spirit Stones."

"What the hell is this? You're selling this small iron piece for 3000 low-grade Spirit Stones? You might as well go rob someone!" Lin Fan roared in anger.

The stall owner tapped his ear and disdainfully said, "If you think it's too expensive, just put it down. No one is forcing you to buy."

'This is not like what they say in novels, damn it!' Lin Fan was a bit confused at the moment.

The stall owner sneered. He saw through this trick miles ago, he was just waiting for Lin Fan to reveal his pig trotters. After mingling in this business for so long, did Lin Fan really think he was a fool?

Looking at the disdainful expression of the stall owner, Lin Fan was extremely frustrated and wished he could chop him into pieces with his sword right now!

But now the market was crowded, and killing someone in Canglan Imperial City would cause some trouble.

"Take it!" Grinding his teeth, Lin Fan threw a bag of Spirit Stones to the stall owner.

"Hehe, I changed my mind. Now I want 4000 low-grade Spirit Stones." The stall owner saw that Lin Fan was willing to spend 3000 low-grade Spirit Stones, so this item must be important to him. Since he was willing to spend 3000, he wouldn't mind spending another 1000!

"You bastard! You're asking for death." Lin Fan's eyes were filled with killing intent, and his hand was already gripping the hilt of the knife, as if he wanted to cut this ignorant local into pieces!

"What? Want to kill me? You better think it over. This is under the foot of Canglan Imperial City. Do you really think Canglan Army is here for show?" The stall owner had seen storms and waves and was not afraid. In his line of work, he tricked outsiders all the time!

"Fine! Here is 4000 low-grade Spirit Stones." These words almost squeezed out from between Lin Fan's teeth. Although he wasn't afraid of Canglan Imperial City, if it delayed the auction two days later, it would be troublesome. He memorized the face of the stall owner and vowed to settle the score later.

"Hehe, here you go. Welcome to visit again." The stall owner handed the iron piece to Lin Fan, took the money, and immediately packed up his stall and left. As an old hand in the business, anyone he tricked would probably want to kill him. Yet, he was still living well! For a reason!

[Ding! Protagonist Lin Fan's attempt to show off fails. Destiny Value -500, Villain Points +1000]

"Hmm? What the hell?" Qin Tian, currently in bed, was having sex with Ying Ji when he was suddenly startled by this sudden notification. What happened to that unlucky Lin Fan?

"Mmm~ Master~ Don't stop~ Fuck my pussy faster~" Ying Ji was on the verge of orgasm, so Qin Tian stopping made her feel uncomfortable. She twisted her waist and swung her fat buttocks, starting to move on her own.

'Forget it, Lin Fan's business is not important. Let's not bother with him and continue.' Qin Tian thought to himself, then slapped Ying Ji's fat buttocks and smiled, "You slut with a big butt, so naughty."

"I'm only lascivious for my master~ In front of you, I'm a slutty whore, Master~ Ah~ Master's cock feels so good~" Ying Ji said coquettishly while being penetrated by Qin Tian. Her body moved back and forth as she trembled, enjoying the numb sensation of Qin Tian's massive cock expanding her tight pussy and hitting her cervix over and over.

Qin Tian smirked, gripping Ying Ji's fat buttocks with both hands and thrusting his cock inside again. The massive cock mercilessly invaded Ying Ji's tender pussy, splashing spring water everywhere. The pleasure of penetrating Ying Ji from behind was extremely enjoyable. Her big ass was soft and elastic, providing visual and physical satisfaction for Qin Tian. Several hours later, Ying Ji laid satisfied in Qin Tian's arms, resting her head on his shoulder, her pink tongue naughtily licked his nipples. Her small hand drew circles on his chest as she looked at Qin Tian's profile and smiled, "Master is so powerful. I can hardly handle it. Master should capture that big fox soon. This way, Master can enjoy himself more. I can tell you like her a lot."

Qin Tian placed one hand on Ying Ji's fat buttocks and said, "There will be opportunities. Our purpose in the lower realm is not to play with women."

Ying Ji nodded, a bit puzzled, and asked, "Regarding the Ancestral Dragon opportunity, why does Master rely on Lin Fan? We couldn't find it even with the help of entire Tianjian Sacred Land, but he can?"

"Do you know about destiny?" Qin Tian wrapped his arms around Ying Ji's beautiful flesh and had her lie on top of him. Ying Ji's sexy and hot body pressed against him, like a high-quality pillow, soft and comfortable. Her pink nipples, still erect in excitement rubbed against his chest, as her plump breasts flattened. 

Ying Ji found a comfortable position in Qin Tian's arms and asked, "Master, do you mean that this Lin Fan has great destiny?"

Ying Ji had some understanding of destiny. The concept of destiny had always been elusive, making it difficult for anyone to grasp. A person's destiny could affect their well-being, and some people were born with great destiny, receiving unearned fortunes even in their dreams. On the other hand, those with poor destiny might suffer from various ailments. After countless evolutions and studies in the universe, destiny in the universe could now be controlled to an extent.

"Mmm." Qin Tian nodded and continued, "Lin Fan's destiny is related to the Ancestral Dragon. The opportunity related to Ancestral Dragon is something that everyone desires in the universe, but it appeared in the lower realm. Coincidentally, Lin Fan has great destiny. This is definitely not normal." 

"Master is amazing!" Ying Ji hugged Qin Tian, her eyes shining with admiration.

Qin Tian kissed her cherry lips and smiled, "Where am I amazing?"

"Master is amazing everywhere!" Ying Ji answered, returning his kiss.

Helpless, Qin Tian chuckled. Although he was usually serious and domineering, he couldn't restrain himself in bed. When it came to his women, he couldn't be heartless. Ying Ji dared to speak to him like this in bed, and that was what Qin Tian wanted. They each had their roles. In ordinary times, Ying Ji was his guard and subordinate, and he needed her to fulfill his commands. But in bed, Ying Ji was his woman, and he didn't mind being gentle and doting towards her.

Qin Tian sat up with Ying Ji in his arms and said, "Let's go out for a while. We can't stay here all day. Plus, I have a few things to take care of."

"Yes, Master. Let me help you in getting dressed," Ying Ji stood up and carefully dressed Qin Tian, then put on her tight black leather suit, blending into Qin Tian's shadow seamlessly.

As they walked, Qin Tian said in his heart, "System, bring up Lin Fan's opportunities and events or items related to the female lead in Canglan Imperial City."

[Protagonist's Fateful Item: Tianshang Guqin. A guqin in the Tianbao Pavilion, long neglected and covered in dust, is actually a remnant treasure of a Great Emperor, used by the Guqin Emperor himself. A single piece played on it can change the colors of the sky and earth, darken the sun and moon, and blah blah. Now damaged and unplayable, it has gathered dust in the Tianbao Pavilion for lack of anyone able to play it.]

Qin Tian raised an eyebrow, 'My goodness, an emperor's treasure?!'
