Chapter 930 Heading To The Lin Astral Empire (4)

When the others found out about his plan, they were naturally very unhappy.

Well, there were some that weren't as unhappy as others.

The one that was the most unhappy was naturally Xin'er since she felt like she was being abandoned by Lin Fan and Angela.

While Angela was unhappy that they were leaving Xin'er behind, she knew that this was necessary since it would be dangerous where they were heading.

She knew just how strong the experts in the Astral Empires of humans were, they were people that even she couldn't look down on.

She was even anxious about going to this Lin Astral Empire until Lin Fan explained that the store had hidden her real identity and her abilities.

While she didn't understand how it all worked, she never doubted the abilities of the store's real owner since they had already shocked her many times with their ability and she knew better than to question them.

After all, the real owner was in the God Realm, a realm that far surpassed their understanding.

In the end, Xin'er could only be calmed down after they promised that they would be back for her when she became strong enough.

On one hand, this was to calm Xin'er down.

On the other hand, it was also to motivate Xin'er to cultivate more diligently because it was true that if she was stronger, they would be able to take her with them.

She had the full inheritance of the Mu Stellar Kingdom as the Mu Stellar King's daughter, so it shouldn't be hard for her to reach a level where she could keep herself safe.

So she was filled with determination after hearing this.

While Lin Fan's parents were surprised to hear that he had adopted a daughter while he had been out, they understood the circumstances after hearing his story.

Not to mention, Xin'er was a very cute girl in the first place, so she had instantly melted their hearts.

It didn't take long before Yue Qingrou and the Lin Astral Empress were spoiling her.

Almost as if they were their real granddaughter.

The rest of the time spent in the Mu Stellar Kingdom went by quite harmoniously.

Well, no, there was one incident that was quite disastrous.

Lin Fan couldn't just avoid it, so he did it as soon as he could. Just like tearing a bandaid off quickly so it wouldn't hurt as much.

He naturally had to tell Angela about the matter with Zi Ling.

As expected, when Angela heard about this, she was silent for a moment before…

She suddenly stood up and slapped Lin Fan in the face.

Lin Fan hadn't resisted at all since he knew that he deserved this and was sent flying by the force of the slap. He flew right through the air and slammed into the wall, creating a loud sound.

If it hadn't been for the fact that they had been talking in a back room in the store, perhaps the wall would have been shattered from the force of this slap.

The thudding of the wall had scared everyone outside, especially Zi Ling.

She had been secretly listening and paying attention to the door, being ready to react the moment that it opened.

From the first moment that she met Angela back on the Blue Star Planet, she knew that she would be a formidable foe and one that she had no chance of beating.

The only way for her to gain an advantage was to start from Lin Fan and submit under her…

After a long period of time, the two of them came out with very different looks.

Angela had her lips pouted in an angry manner and Lin Fan had a face that was covered in bruises.

Though as a World Realm Expert, these kinds of bruises were easy for him to heal if he just used a bit of his life energy. He just didn't dare use his life energy to cure these bruises out of fear of Angela.

This was all a play between the two of them after all.

When they came out, Zi Ling came in front of Angela and fell to her knees as she said, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault. Please don't blame him."

Angela narrowed her eyes to look down at Zi Ling.

However, to Lin Fan's surprise, she didn't slap her right across the face like he had thought she would.

Instead, she just glared at Zi Ling without saying a word.

Lin Fan couldn't help shaking in fear when he saw this.

This matter had already basically been over after Lin Fan had let her vent her anger on him, but now that Zi Ling was coming forward to stir the hornet's nest…this was just adding fuel to the flames and not helping anyone!

Still, Lin Fan didn't dare do a thing as he watched and waited for Angela to act.

That was because he couldn't see through the look on her face.

Normally, he would be able to see through her thoughts through the expressions on her faces. They had been together long enough that he was able to read through her now through her tiny expressions.

But this time, he couldn't understand what she was thinking at all.

Instead of rashly trying to do something, it was better for him to wait for her to do something and then react. At the very least, that would minimize the damage that would be dealt.

He wouldn't add more oil to the flames like Zi Ling had done.

But he was completely caught off guard by what Angela did next.

She leaned over and took Zi Ling by the hand before gently helping her up.

Lin Fan's chin dropped when he saw this.

At the same time, Zi Ling couldn't help revealing a panicked look because this had also been the last thing that she had expected.

After all, no matter how one looked at it, she was the mistress and Angela was the wife.

She was the one that had forced herself onto Lin Fan, so by all means, she should be the one that should be punished.

But she could understand this since if she was also the one who had been with Lin Fan first, she wouldn't be willing to share him with anyone. She would have acted the same way that Angela had acted.

So what Angela was doing now completely surprised her and made her unsure how to act.

Angela looked right into Zi Ling's eyes and said, "I already knew that this would happen when I first saw you."

Both Lin Fan and Zi Ling couldn't help trembling when they heard this, but then they both revealed awkward smiles. After all, neither of them had even thought that this would happen when they first met, but Angela had.

They hadn't been aware of their own feelings, but she had been watching the entire time…

Zi Ling didn't know what to do for a while before suddenly bowing her head again and saying, "That doesn't excuse…"

Angela lifted her hand to cut her off before saying, "It's not your fault."

Then her voice turned sharp as she looked at Lin Fan with a cold look, "It's this coward's fault."

Lin Fan's smile became even more awkward before he quickly put it away and bowed his head to apologize, but it was already too late as Angela had already lifted Zi Ling up and walked away.

As she was walking away, Angela added, "If you move, then I'll double your punishment."

Lin Fan could only kneel there on the ground with a bitter smile on his face.

As for Angela and Zi Ling, Angela brought her over to another room and made some tea before saying, "Sit and let's talk."

Zi Ling was once again taken aback since her perception of Angela was different than this based on their previous interaction.

Angela saw that she just stood there without saying a thing, so she released a bit of her aura and said again, "Sit."

Zi Ling couldn't help trembling when she felt this.

This was the way that she had always felt in front of Angela, unable to resist at all.

So she meekly sat down without saying a thing.

After she sat down, Angela said, "There are some important things that you need to know if you want to be by his side."

Zi Ling couldn't help giving a gulp when she heard this and she looked at Angela with a trace of fear in her eyes.

Out in the hall, when the Lin Astral Emperor passed by with the Lin Family Ancestor and Lin Ao and they saw Lin Fan just kneeling there, they couldn't help shaking their heads with bitter smiles before patting him on the shoulder.

Of course, they didn't say anything because they knew that there was no need for them to say anything.

After all, anything that they said would just hurt Lin Fan's pride.

…

A week later, everything had been set and they all entered the Lin Astral Emperor's spaceship to head off to the Lin Astral Empire.

As they were heading off, Xin'er couldn't help holding tightly to both Lin Fan and Angela, being unwilling to let go.

It was the same with Yuki and the five sisters who had bonded during this time, but in the end, her bond with Angela was the strongest.

They would only let go when they promised that they would come back for them once they became strong enough to stand on their own.

With that, they were off to the Lin Astral Empire.
