Chapter 398 Minor World (23)
When the cloak was taken off, a beautiful face was revealed.
This was a fair face that had a head of shimmering blue hair and slightly pale red lips, but the most shocking thing about this face was the face were the piercing blue eyes right in the center of it.
They were so clear, but at the same time, one couldn't see the bottoms of them.
If one looked closely, it almost felt like those eyes could peer right into the depths of their soul.
After she took off her cloak, she looked at Lin Fan and Mu Bao Bao with an expectant look, as if she was waiting for them to do the same.
Lin Fan didn't move, but Mu Bao Bao drew back the hood of her cloak.
The moment that she saw this face in front of her, she couldn't hold herself back since it had been a long time since she had seen this face. But that didn't mean that she didn't miss this face during all the time that she hadn't seen it.
When she pulled off her hood, the blue haired girl's eyes trembled before they misted over.
The moment that the blue haired girl saw Mu Bao Bao, she immediately recognized her.
She no longer sat on the bed and immediately ran over towards Mu Bao Bao. At the same time, Mu Bao Bao ran towards the blue haired girl.
The two of them met in the center of the room and were about to hug each other, before Mu Bao Bao suddenly took a deep breath and took a step back.
When the blue haired girl saw this, she couldn't help revealing a trace of hurt in her eyes, but she didn't have a single trace of blame in those eyes. She understood why Mu Bao Bao had suddenly moved back because she understood her own body better than anyone else.
Simply put, Mu Bao Bao had moved back because it was too cold to hold her.
Mu Bao Bao saw this and she couldn't help revealing a look of guilt before taking a step forward again.
This time, she had wrapped herself in her spiritual energy so that there was a barrier around her.
However, even with her spiritual energy forming a barrier around her, it wasn't as if she wasn't affected by the coldness coming from the blue haired girl.
She couldn't help wincing her face when she felt this cold that seemed like it was freezing her to her bones, but she didn't pull back this time as she put her arms around the blue haired girl. There were traces of frost that formed on her clothes from holding this blue haired girl close.
The blue haired girl's eyes filled with sadness seeing this and she was about to tell her to stop, but then she saw the look in Mu Bao Bao's eyes.
When she saw the look that Mu Bao Bao gave her, her eyes couldn't help misting over even more.
It had been a long time since there had been anyone that had looked at her like this.
After leaving the Love Sect, she had spent a long time alone…
The two of them continued to stay like this for a few minutes, but it was taking its toll on Mu Bao Bao. As she held the blue haired girl, the layer of frost that was forming on her body became thicker and thicker.
Eventually, she couldn't stop herself from shivering.
It wouldn't be considered serious if she was a normal person, but since she was a cultivator who had trained her body, it was serious. A cultivator had strong resistance from things like coldness, so if they shivered, you could bet that it was something very cold.
It was most likely something that could freeze mortals with just a single touch.
Especially when it was a cultivator as powerful as Mu Bao Bao in the Golden Core Realm.
This coldness would even be strong enough to freeze weaker cultivators in the Qi Gathering Realm with just a single touch.
Lin Fan in the Foundation Realm wouldn't be any better off. So he stood there on the side, but he could still feel the cold coming from her.
The two girls hugged until the blue haired girl pulled back.
She could see how hard it was for Mu Bao Bao, so she didn't want to keep hurting her.
It was then that she turned her attention to Lin Fan.
The way that she looked at him, it was as if she was waiting for him to take off his cloak.
However, he was hesitant because he didn't know how she would react after he took off his cloak. After all, there was no past between them and it was very likely that she would attack him.
But in the end, Mu Bao Bao gave him a nod to show that he should do it.
Lin Fan gave a secret sigh before trusting Mu Bao Bao and taking the cloak off.
The moment that the blue haired girl saw Lin Fan's face, she immediately knitted her brows. She didn't waste any time as she stood up and moved in front of Mu Bao Bao.
She narrowed her eyes to look at Lin Fan as she said, "Who are you?"
Lin Fan couldn't help revealing a bitter smile because he had already expected this.
But Mu Bao Bao quickly came out from behind the blue haired girl. She raised her hands in front of her to stop the blue haired girl as she said, "Senior Sister Bing, stop. He's not an enemy, he is a part of our Love Sect."
The blue haired girl knitted her brows when she heard this, but she did release her hostility towards Lin Fan.
While she didn't know who Lin Fan was, she still trusted Mu Bao Bao.
She had left the Love Sect a long time ago, so it wasn't strange that there would be members of the Love Sect that she didn't recognize. If Mu Bao Bao was willing to go that far to vouch for him, that was enough for her.
Still, she would like an explanation as to who Lin Fan was, so she looked at Mu Bao Bao with an inquisitive look.
Mu Bao Bao couldn't help revealing an awkward smile since it was embarrassing for her to tell the story between her and Lin Fan, but she still told it in the end. Albeit, it was only a summarized version since there wasn't much time in the first place.
When she finished her story, Senior Sister Bing couldn't help taking a closer look at Lin Fan, as if she was sizing him up.
During the story, she had been surprised to hear that Lin Fan had not only gone from being Mu Bao Bao's disciple to her lover, but also that he became the new Love Sect sect master.
She didn't judge the first part since there was the rule about free love in the Love Sect that she still followed. She was just surprised that Mu Bao Bao was able to find a lover.
After all, she was still an innocent kid when she last saw her and she still thought of her as an innocent kid. She never thought that she would have already ascended the staircase of being an adult.
At the same time though, there was a bit of bitterness in her.
She was older than Mu Bao Bao, but she still hadn't ascended this staircase yet…
Still, she wouldn't stay jealous about her friend who she thought of as a little sister. She could see how happy Mu Bao Bao had been when she talked about meeting Lin Fan and she was happy to see her happy.
She also understood that after everything that Lin Fan had done for the Love Sect, it only made sense that he would be the new sect master.
She knew that Mu Bao Bao wasn't suited for this position and she only held it because of the Love Sect's destruction.
So she accepted Lin Fan as a member of the Love Sect after hearing this story.
Once she finished telling the story, Mu Bao Bao asked, "Senior Sister Bing, why are you doing all of this?"
Senior Sister Bing gave a bitter laugh before saying, "I don't have much time left, I might as well use what time I have left to repay the Love Sect."
Mu Bao Bao immediately knitted her brows and revealed a concerned look as she said, "You don't have much time left? What do you mean by that?"
Senior Sister Bing shook her head and said, "You've already felt the cold coming from me, you should know that there's something wrong with my body."
Mu Bao Bao knitted her brows even more before suddenly remembering what Senior Sister Bing had said earlier, "The Extreme Yin Body?"
Senior Sister Bing gave a nod in response.
Mu Bao Bao shook her head and said, "That isn't right, it should already be under control because of what Uncle Master Yue taught you. You shouldn't have lost control of it."
Senior Sister Bing revealed a bitter smile as she said, "I tried to become stronger as I broke through, so I tried integrating the Extreme Yin Body into my cultivation. If I left it alone, it would have remained suppressed because of what master did, but since I provoked it…it became stronger and stronger until it reached the level that it's at now."
Then after a sigh, she added, "I don't have any regrets since I did what I did to become stronger, but I was just unlucky and it didn't work out. My one regret is that I wasn't able to take proper revenge for the Love Sect."
Mu Bao Bao looked at her with sad eyes before asking, "How long do you have left?"
Senior Sister Bing thought about it before saying, "I don't know how long exactly, but it should be a few more weeks."
Senior Sister Bing then moved the conversation along by switching to another topic, "Once I'm gone, I'll give this Minor World to you and you can take it back to the Love Sect. They won't be able to track this Minor World since it's a special one that I received from an inheritance that I found in one of the ruins I explored. It's made by a special master that made it impossible to track."
Seeing the way that Mu Bao Bao looked at her without saying anything, Senior Sister Bing said with a smile, "I'm happy that I got to see you again and that this was how I went out. While I wasn't able to do any substantial damage to those sects that attacked our Love Sect, at the very least I was able to get some revenge. Not to mention that you now know the identity of the culprit behind the curtain and will be able to take revenge for me. I truly have no regrets."
Mu Bao Bao looked like she thought otherwise.
When Lin Fan saw her looking at him with a look asking him to do something, he couldn't help revealing a bitter smile.
