Cultivation Pet Shop

Chapter 572 Goddess Of Ice

After learning the truth of the attack, Lin Fan made up his mind to start cultivating more seriously.

He summoned out the first three pets that he received, the ones that received the ancient beast bloodlines. He brought them all into the shadow cultivation room and started beating them up.

As he did, the three pets revealed satisfied looks like they were enjoying the beating.

Lin Fan decided that it wasn't enough for him to just increase his own cultivation because there was only so much that he could do alone, it would make sense to train his pets as well.

After all, he had heard that there was also a Phoenix Race that was working with the humans…

If Xiao Feng was able to suppress the Dragon Race with his bloodline, it didn't make sense if Xiao Huo wasn't able to do the same with the Phoenix Race with his bloodline. If he was able to do that, it would go a long way in helping the neutral faction…

Without knowing it, Lin Fan had already started considering himself as part of the neutral faction.

The night passed quickly and soon it was time for Lin Fan to open the store again.

Even though he had stayed up all night training, that wasn't a problem for him at his cultivation level. Even if he were to stay up for several nights, he would still be fine. However, he hadn't reached the point where he was able to go without sleep or food just yet.

There was the same crowd as usual outside the store as usual, but they also quickly dispersed once the few spots for training were sold.

When the morning rush was over, there were only a few people who were still left in this store.

These were all people sent by the various factions to keep an eye on this store. They hung around this store most days, so Lin Fan was already used to them.

After around an hour passed, there was a girl who suddenly pushed through the doors of the shop.

This was a girl who was a beautiful young girl with hair as white as ice.

When she came in, the first thing she did was look around, but she didn't bother with anything in the shop since the only thing that she seemed to care about was Lin Fan. The moment her eyes fell onto Lin Fan sitting at the counter, she walked over without any hesitation.

Naturally Lin Fan had also noticed the girl coming in and the moment she did, he revealed a surprised look because he recognized her.

This girl had been there the night of the banquet when the Thunder Sect and the True Spirit Sect had announced that they would be working together to excavate the Ancient Era Ruin. She had been the one who had complained about the number of tokens that she had received.

She was the one called miss Bing from the Ice Goddess Palace.

But what was she doing here?

The Ice Goddess Palace was naturally being included in the discussion between the Myriad Sword Hall and the Hunters Organization later, so there was no reason for her to come to this store unless there was a special reason. After all, it would draw attention to them since Lin Fan was also participating in the meeting later.

The girl came right up to the counter and looked over Lin Fan before revealing a look that seemed disappointed.

It didn't take a psychic to tell that this girl was disappointed with Lin Fan, but it was hard to tell why she was disappointed.

After a moment of silence, she asked, "Are you the owner of this store?"

Lin Fan looked right back at her without turning his gaze at all as he casually said, "That's right, how can I help you?"

She gave a snort before saying, "I don't believe that you're the one who really runs the store. Get the real owner out for me, I have something important to discuss with them."

p Lin Fan looked at her like she was an idiot before giving a shrug and saying, "There's nothing I can do for you, this really is my store. If you don't believe me, then that's too bad."

Without caring about what she would do next, Lin Fan went back to the game that he had been playing.

When the girl saw this, she immediately revealed a look of anger.

There had never been anyone who had treated her like this or rather all those that did had been crippled by her.

Naturally she wouldn't take this from Lin Fan as well, so without anyone noticing, she condensed a small icicle in her hand. Then as acting naturally, she leaned in on the counter as if she was about to say something to Lin Fan.

Then at the very last second, she stabbed out at Lin Fan with the small icicle in her hand.

Of course, she still wanted to meet the real owner of the store, so she chose to hold back in the end. She didn't want to kill Lin Fan just yet, just hurt him enough that the real master of the store would come out.

That was the main reason for her visit today.

Yesterday, the Myriad Sword Hall had suddenly contacted the Ice Goddess Palace about a meeting with the Hunters Organization.

The Ice Goddess Palace was naturally aware of the situation with the Thunder Sect, the True Spirit Sect, and the Assassins Association working together since they were allied with the Myriad Sword Hall, so they also welcomed this. The Hunters Organization was normally considered a neutral faction, but that didn't mean by any means that they were a weak faction. They were a faction that was known for having powerful experts, so they would be very good allies to have.

But they also heard that there was another party that would be included in the discussion, which was Lin Fan's shop.

The Ice Goddess Palace could accept the Hunters Organization since they were also one of the twelve great factions, but they had never heard of Lin Fan's shop before, so it was hard for them to accept that it was one of the parties that were invited to this meeting.

Which was what had driven Bing Yu to come to this store herself to investigate the background of this store.

The icicle approached Lin Fan and he could feel it, but he just sat there, not doing a thing.

He had a good idea as to why this girl was here, but it was clear that he had to demonstrate his power first if he wanted to have a chance to say anything, so he allowed her to attack him.

Right when the icicle was about to touch him, the defenses of the store kicked in and an invisible barrier appeared in front of Lin Fan.

The icicle was stopped just a few centimeters away from Lin Fan and no matter how Bing Yu tried to push it forward, it wouldn't go forward.

Bing Yu knitted her brows, but before she even had a chance to say or do anything, there was a powerful force that came from in front of her. She had no way of resisting this force and this force carried her right out of the store.

The door opened to let her fly right out and she skidded across the ground outside a few times before coming to the stop.

The people outside were surprised to suddenly see someone flying out of the store, but then when they took a closer look at who it was, they were shocked.

Bing Yu was a well known person since she was one of the Decagram Geniuses. While she was ranked lower among them, she was still a talented person and the one that everyone thought would take over the Ice Goddess Palace one day.

Now she had been sent flying out of Lin Fan's store…Of course people couldn't help being curious and shocked by this.

Just a few days ago it was the City Lord's son and now it was the Ice Goddess Palace's goddess, just what kind of a store was this?

Bing Yu didn't care about the crowd around her and looked down at her hand which was still aching.

The icicle that she had been holding had completely shattered and her hand was swollen. If the force that she had been hit with was a bit stronger, her whole hand might have completely shattered.

It was a good thing that she had chosen to hold back because if she hadn't, the force that she would have encountered would have been much stronger and she would have been crippled just like He Yong.

Looking back at the store, she couldn't help feeling that it was completely different from before.

She had thought that it was a shoddy store, but now that she looked at it, she felt that it was a place that she couldn't see through.

She was thinking about going back in to see if she could find anything else, but then after thinking about it, she decided against this idea.

Taking one last look at the store, she then turned around without even looking back once and walked back to the beast carriage that she came in. Once she was in the beast carriage, she took one last look at the store before having the driver head off.

Lin Fan had seen all of this through the window, but he just sat at the counter without doing a thing.

After all, he would still see her later.
