After taking care of Han Fu Rong and making sure that the smoke he released was scattered, Lin Fan landed back into the restaurant.
His staff were already outside taking care of the situation, so there was no need for him to worry about anyone interfering.
As he landed, the door opened and the manager of the store came in with a bitter smile. She said in a voice filled with complaint, "Boss, you couldn't have done this more quietly and not so destructively?"
Lin Fan revealed an awkward smile, but he gave a shrug and said, "I had no other choice."
The manager gave a sigh and muttered, "Who told you to be the boss?"
Lin Fan's smile became wider and more awkward, but he didn't say anything in response.
He knew that she was just complaining because to complain, but in the end, she would accept what he said since this was his place.
As for why Lin Fan had destroyed the room, that was the only way that he could think of to take care of the smoke.
He would have gone in sooner, but once he noticed the smoke, he knew that it was dangerous for him to go in. So he released his moles to immediately dig multiple holes in various parts of the room and he made sure to have the staff evacuate anyone that was nearby so they wouldn't be affected.
Then he had the moles create these holes while he created the hole in the wall facing the street.
As for the rest…
He looked at Han Fu Rong and said to the manager, "Have someone tie him up and take him away. Heal him up, I still want to interrogate him later."
The manager gave a bow before waving her hand at two of the guards.
Those two guards immediately came in to take Han Fu Rong away, but as they left, they couldn't help sneaking a glance at Lin Fan's face. Then while taking Han Fu Rong away, they also giggled and whispered to each other.
Lin Fan's lips couldn't help twitching when he heard this.
He didn't know what the reason was, but every business that Yue Lan owned that he visited, he found that all the staff there were female. Not only that, they were also young and pretty girls…
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe had thought that this was just a business strategy at first. After all, the use of pretty girls to market products was a strategy that was commonly used on Earth and Lin Fan didn't find it strange that it was used here.
But if one store having only female staff was a coincidence, a second store, a third store, a fourth store…There was a certain point where it stopped being a coincidence.
Lin Fan also remembered what happened with Lu'er, Lan'er, and Ouyang Qian in Brilliant Light City…
It was almost as if Yue Lan was trying to…
As he thought this, he quickly shook this thought out of his mind since he decided that he shouldn't doubt Yue Lan. She must have her own reason for doing something like this.
So Lin Fan gave a wave of his hand to the manager as well before saying, "You can go back to your work. I'll head to the office and take care of something, so keep people out until I'm done."
The manager looked up at Lin Fan with a faint look of anticipation in her eyes as she asked, "Boss, do you need help? I can help with whatever you need help with."
Lin Fan was a bit surprised by how enthusiastic she was, but he shook his head and said, "It's fine, I can take care of this myself."
There was a hint of disappointment that appeared in the eyes of the manager, but she still gave a bow and left to head back to work.
Lin Fan could have sworn that he saw a hint of something else in her eyes…but it must have been just his imagination, right?
He carried Mu Bao Bao and Xiao Ming over to the office and then put them down on the sofa inside.
He had already seen what kind of poison Han Fu Rong had used with his Appraisal Eyes, so he knew that they weren't in any life threatening danger. The only effect that it had on them was that it had knocked them out.
That was also the main reason why it had affected Mu Bao Bao even though she was in the Golden Core Realm.
It was a specialized poison that was only designed to knock people out, which made it so effective.
The only thing that he could do to help them was use his spiritual energy to help them dissipate the poison.
He started with Mu Bao Bao first because she had a higher level of cultivation, so it was easy for him to wake her up. It only took around five minutes before she suddenly woke up.
She immediately raised her hands to guard herself and carefully looked at her body before looking around. When she saw Lin Fan sitting behind her with his hand up, she let out a sigh of relief as she could guess what he was doing.
However, she still couldn't help asking in a hesitant voice, "Did he…?"
She didn't finish her words, but it was clear what she was implying.
Lin Fan took her in his arms and shook his head as he said, "No, I stopped him before he could do anything. I also crippled and captured him, so we can interrogate him after this."
Mu Bao Bao let out another sigh of relief before burying her head in his chest. Then in a small voice, she said, "I'm sorry, I was too impulsive."
Lin Fan just patted her head with a smile and said, "It's alright, but you should learn from this in the future."
Mu Bao Bao looked up and gave a cute nod. Then she tilted her head and asked in a curious voice, "How did you break that barrier of his? It could even block my attacks."
Lin Fan revealed a faint smile when he heard this.
He had also been worried about the barrier at first, but then he saw what it was and the description of its ability with his Appraisal Eyes. He felt much more confident in taking out Han Fu Rong after seeing it.
The item that had blocked Mu Bao Bao's attack was a special token that Han Fu Rong had. It was a powerful item that could even block a full force attack from a Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator!
This really shocked Lin Fan since he never expected Han Fu Rong to have this kind of powerful item.
But the lucky thing was that this item could only block three attacks, regardless of what they were. So Lin Fan had Hayase to hit Han Fu Rong with his water spears to use up that final use of the token before he attacked Han Fu Rong.
Han Fu Rong was only in the Low Foundation Realm, so it was easy for Lin Fan whose attack was on the same level as Ming Ze to break through his defenses and cripple him.
After hearing all of this, Mu Bao Bao chose not to question how Lin Fan knew that the token only had three uses since she was already used to him having his mysterious methods. Instead, she knitted her brows and asked, "Then does that mean that Han Fu Rong has really…"
Lin Fan gave a nod to confirm this.
Mu Bao Bao gave a sigh and revealed a worried look.
The other side could even give someone like Han Fu Rong a token this powerful, what else would they have up their sleeves?
She couldn't help looking at Lin Fan with a complicated look.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter all, with the way things were going, it was very likely that she would implicate him by insisting on saving her junior brother and junior sister.
Lin Fan could tell what she was thinking, but he also had his own thoughts.
First, he had his quests from the system that he needed to worry about. He needed people to recruit into the Love Sect, so he would really want to have this junior brother and junior sister joining the Love Sect since it would mean two Qi Condensing Realm Cultivators.
Second, he knew how Mu Bao Bao felt, so even if she was worried about implicating him, he would go all out for her since that was how much he cared about her.
So Lin Fan reached his hand out and patted her on the head as he said, "Don't worry about it, we'll see how it goes after we interrogate him."
Then he turned to look at Xiao Ming and said, "Help me wake her up first."
Mu Bao Bao also remembered about Xiao Ming and she quickly went over to where Xiao Ming was lying before looking at Lin Fan, as if she was waiting for instructions from him.
Lin Fan just walked over and put his hand on Xiao Ming's back before saying, "Just inject your spiritual energy into her normally and that'll help her body dissipate the poison."
Mu Bao Bao couldn't help revealing a concerned look as she asked, "Is that really it? It won't leave any lasting effects on her?"
Lin Fan opened his mouth, but then he realized that he wasn't certain, so he took another look at Xiao Ming. After confirming with his Appraisal Eyes that it was fine, he gave a nod in response.
Mu Bao Bao felt a bit doubtful seeing Lin Fan hesitating like this, but she still followed what he said.
Xiao Ming wasn't a cultivator, so it wasn't as easy for her body to dissipate this poison even with the injection of spiritual energy from Lin Fan and Mu Bao Bao. Still, the poison was broken down after half an hour and Xiao Ming slowly opened her eyes.
When she looked up to see Lin Fan and Mu Bao Bao standing over her, she couldn't help being surprised. She jumped up and looked around, as if she was trying to find an enemy, but there was nothing there for her.
When she jumped up though, she jumped up much higher than she would normally jump.
After seeing that there were no enemies, she sat back down on the sofa and let out a sigh of relief.
Mu Bao Bao took her hands and looked at her with an apologetic look before saying, "I'm sorry, it was all my fault."
Xiao Ming was surprised by this apology and quickly waved her hands as she said, "No, no, it wasn't your fault at all. It wasn't your fault at all."
Lin Fan also looked at her with an apologetic look since he had also forgotten about her while focusing on Han Fu Rong.
After letting Mu Bao Bao calm her down, he asked, "Did you hear anything while you were in there?"
Xiao Ming's body jolted when she heard this.
