Extraordinary Medical Saint in the City-Chapter 1352 - 1350: Get Over Here! You Think I’m Afraid of You?
Zhu Qilue shrugged helplessly, giving a sidelong glance at the fuming Zhu Ruoling, and said with a pout, "Although my sister won't admit it, anyone with eyes can see she likes Lan Zhengqing. Yet she thinks no one knows..."
Lin Fan detected a hint of displeasure in Zhu Qilue's tone, clearly dissatisfied with Lan Zhengqing.
He too was displeased; how could Zhu Ruoling like someone like Lan Zhengqing?
Lan Zhengqing, although looking like a handsome man, is admired by both women and men alike.
But it's clear that he is too self-centered; you could tell by how he pushed Zhu Ruoling away earlier to save himself.
Zhu Ruoling, with her fiery personality, clearly doesn't yet know how deceitful people can be, which is why she's deceived by someone like Lan Zhengqing.
Lin Fan sighed deeply in his heart; this woman is so pitiably foolish, to fancy such a character. She needs to know what a real man is.
Someone like Lan Zhengqing... disdain!
"What are you two whispering about?" Lan Zhengqing sensed the two were discussing him and immediately felt displeased.
Moreover, the matter of pushing Zhu Ruoling was directly pointed out by Lin Fan, leaving him somewhat exasperated.
So.
He demanded fiercely of the two!
Lin Fan naturally wasn't concerned, viewing him as an ant from the Sumeru Continent, merely trash. Zhu Qilue, though a Fire Clan noble, was also considered a waste by everyone, so there was no need to worry.
"Why do you care what I'm talking about? Do I need to report every word I say to you? It's none of your business, worry about yourself. If Zhu Ruoling gets hurt, the Fire Clan Leader won't spare you!" Lin Fan shouted angrily.
Lan Zhengqing was taken aback, not expecting an ant to dare defy him, utterly outrageous!
He immediately became furious, surging a violent aura that rushed toward Lin Fan like a tidal wave.
Lin Fan remained unfazed, provocatively raising his eyebrows at Lan Zhengqing, as if saying: Come on then! Am I afraid of you?
In an instant.
The atmosphere was tense!
The tension was suffocating!
Zhu Qilue and Zhu Ruoling held their breath, not daring to make a sound.
However, one was worried about Lin Fan, the other about Lan Zhengqing, both hoping to avoid this confrontation.
"Zhengqing brother, there's no need to fuss with an ant. If you fight him, you're the one who loses."
"Lin Fan, let it be; after all, he is the Water Clan noble... his strength far surpasses mine..."
"Zhengqing brother, let's not mind him, just think of his words as nonsense."
"Lin Fan, just think of his barking as noise, let's move on."
Both tried to persuade, but neither Lin Fan nor Lan Zhengqing showed any intention of stopping, still staring intensely at each other, their eyes filled with killing intent.
The air froze, the tension was suffocating.
Both Lin Fan and Lan Zhengqing erupted with terrifying auras.
Shock!
Astonishment!
Goosebumps!
Zhu Qilue and Zhu Ruoling both looked at Lin Fan, for they had never seen anyone dare to contend with Lan Zhengqing.
Lin Fan was the first!
And it was someone from the Sumeru Continent.
Lest we forget, Lan Zhengqing's reputation, even in the Five Elements Realm, was untouchable. The younger generation couldn't compete with him, and the older generation didn't want to ruin their reputations and suffer, so they naturally refrained.
So, Lan Zhengqing naturally remained in an invincible state.
Over time, he's developed this aloof personality.
Arrogant and domineering.
High and mighty!
He was indeed a genius, achieving such feats and realm at just over two hundred years, unmatched throughout the Five Elements Realm.
No one at over two hundred has ever made the entire Five Elements Realm fear!
Lan Zhengqing is the only one so far.
Though he hasn't shown his Cultivation Realm, Lin Fan suspected it must be near the half-step upper Heavenly Venerate.
Otherwise, Zhu Qilue, who is incredibly conceited, wouldn't be so daunted.
But despite this, Lin Fan showed no fear, remaining as calm and composed as before.
Lan Zhengqing was utterly enraged!
What right did this guy have, what standing, to confront him!
And with such an indifferent stance, clearly an ant, yet acting like an elephant, it was infuriating.
Lan Zhengqing wanted to strike at once, but seeing the worried expression of Zhu Ruoling beside him, and remembering how he pushed her away just now, he took a deep breath.
Finally.
He withdrew the aura surrounding his body, moving closer to Zhu Ruoling.
"Are you alright? I was indeed wrong earlier to push you."
"I'm fine, I... I'm alright..."
Zhu Ruoling's face turned beet red, showing rare shyness, bowing her head as if embarrassed.
But Lan Zhengqing, as if on purpose, gently placed his hand on Zhu Ruoling's shoulder.
"As long as you're alright. You're right, I shouldn't bother with such an ant, even if I killed him, I'd gain nothing. I'd probably be criticized for bullying the weak."
"Exactly! Zhengqing brother, as long as you're open-minded."
Lan Zhengqing smiled slightly, but still didn't remove his hand from Zhu Ruoling's shoulder.
Lin Fan didn't mind; after all, there's no shortage of women in the world, one more Zhu Ruoling makes no difference, nor does one less.
Moreover, he had too many women around him; having too many women is not necessarily a good thing.
He just felt a bit sorry for such a woman to fall for this kind of person.
But it's understandable, as love makes one blind.
Maybe in Zhu Ruoling's eyes, Lan Zhengqing is perfect, and those flaws naturally go unnoticed.
Love is blind, and even the biggest flaws can be feigned as non-existent.
But Zhu Qilue was downright furious, yelling, "Lan Zhengqing! Where the hell are you putting your claw? Take it off, what are you thinking?!"
Earlier he was quite fearful of Lan Zhengqing, but now he dared to shout at him loudly, almost like a different person.
With a flash, he appeared right between Lan Zhengqing and Zhu Ruoling, fierce and glaring.
Glaring directly at Lan Zhengqing.
"Brother... why are you so fierce?" Zhu Ruoling scolded with a blaming tone, as if complaining Zhu Qilue had interrupted her good moment.
Lan Zhengqing chuckled but didn't remove his hand, still resting it on Zhu Ruoling's shoulder.
"Brother Zhu, is there something wrong?"
"What's wrong, take your hand off!"
Lan Zhengqing raised his eyebrows, feigning sudden realization, and then removed his hand from Zhu Ruoling's shoulder.
"Apologies, my hand just rested there subconsciously. I didn't mean anything else, just wanted to comfort Ruoling."
He paused, glancing at the blushing Zhu Ruoling.
"Besides, Ruoling didn't seem to mind, so why are you so alarmed, Brother Zhu?"
"Men and women should not be too close!" Zhu Qilue gritted his teeth and hissed those words.
But no sooner had he said it, Zhu Ruoling shoved him heavily, causing him to lose balance and stagger backward, finally falling to the ground.
"Brother! What's wrong with you?! Are you crazy!"
Zhu Ruoling glared angrily, cursing once, then pulled up Lan Zhengqing's hand.
"Zhengqing brother, don't mind them, they're both crazy!"
She shot a fierce glare at Lin Fan and Zhu Qilue, then pulled Lan Zhengqing away quickly.
