Extraordinary Medical Saint in the City

Chapter 1562 - 1560: Oh No! Qiu Xi Has Been Bewitched!

Qiu Xi’s heart shivered violently.

A warm current surged into her heart, causing her body to suddenly feel hot.

She stared intently at Lin Fan, at that sweat-drenched face, at that sincere and earnest expression, at the scene of him facing the all-encompassing tornado alone.

Her heart was a mix of emotions.

Admiration.

Moved.

Helplessness.

Joy.

All sorts of emotions flooded her mind, leaving her in a mess, and Jiang Ran didn’t know how to respond.

This man...

Qiu Xi thought, and suddenly, her face flushed red.

She didn’t even know what she was thinking, just felt that this man was completely different from others, possessing an indescribable charm that made her sink deeply into it involuntarily.

But.

She also knew very well that she was a wanderer, and it was precisely because of her that things became so complicated, putting Lin Fan in a dangerous situation.

If it weren’t for her, perhaps Lin Fan could live well.

However.

Now he had to face the terrifying and overwhelming power of Lan Zhengqing, and could only resist with the cultivation realm of the Ninth Layer Supreme of Ancient against the attack of a Middle Heavenly Venerate.

It was simply like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, an egg hitting a rock.

But Lin Fan did it anyway, without hesitation. So, he was going to die here with her, buried in a vast expanse of snow.

Like an insignificant ant, dying without anyone remembering, without anyone noticing.

Sigh—

This is her destiny, and now she is pulling Lin Fan into this fate as well.

"Why are you sighing again? I’ve been holding on for so long, do you still want to give up?!"

Qiu Xi was taken aback, staring blankly at Lin Fan. She had only changed her expression slightly, and Lin Fan was able to perceive it without even turning back.

"No... I..."

She was about to defend herself, but Lin Fan interrupted her directly.

"It’s not about whether you want to live, it’s about me letting you live! No matter what we face, no matter how, even if I die, I must let you live, do you understand?!"

"Ah..."

Qiu Xi was stunned, blinking her innocent big eyes.

Lin Fan didn’t turn back, and shouted again with a sonorous voice.

"Do you understand?!"

"I... I understand..."

"That’s good. Now you just stay put, don’t you dare overthink! I’ll try everything to save you, I won’t let you die! If you trust me, you’ll be honest; if you don’t believe me, you can leave now!"

"I... I can’t even leave now..."

Qiu Xi gave a bitter smile, looking at her broken body, mocking herself.

"You know you can’t move, so why are you rambling about nonsense? Saving you is my job, it’s not up to you to command me!"

Lin Fan also laughed, but Qiu Xi could tell it was a bitter laugh.

However.

Lin Fan’s encouragement just now filled Qiu Xi’s heart with courage again, making her willing to face difficulties once more and live bravely.

"Alright, I understand, I won’t overthink anymore!" she said steadily, with a firm tone.

Lin Fan said nothing but smiled. This smile was filled with confidence and strength. Without further worries, he could focus on dealing with Lan Zhengqing.

The sinister wind grew more violent and fierce!

Wherever it swept, not a blade of grass was left, tearing the Void!

Every collision with the Xuanyuan Sword Formation carried immense impact, and although Lin Fan’s hands could hold on, they grew weaker with each strike.

No way!

If it continues like this, the Xuanyuan Sword Formation is bound to be broken!

He must find another path to escape from here, must find the weakness of the sinister wind, can’t let it easily launch an offensive against him!

While resisting the sinister wind, Lin Fan searched for Lan Zhengqing’s flaws.

But how could a master like Lan Zhengqing reveal any flaws? His tornado was flawless, leaving Lin Fan not a single chance.

So.

Lin Fan watched for a long time but found no opening, so he had to endure patiently and keep waiting.

"Disgusting! Absolutely disgusting! I can’t stand it anymore! Ah—"

Lan Zhengqing yelled like a madman, his disheveled appearance vaguely visible through the wind, utterly devoid of his former cultured and majestic demeanor. His monstrous and terrifying visage was like a lunatic just escaped from an asylum.

"Abominable! Absolutely abominable! Qiu Xi, you’re my subordinate, how can you flirt with this ant right in front of me?! I won’t allow you to behave like this in front of me, it makes me sick! Qiu Xi, didn’t you like me?! Then how can you be so ambiguous with another man in front of me! What on earth do you want? Do you want to torture me?!"

Lin Fan frowned, glanced back at Qiu Xi, and then turned again to glare fiercely at Lan Zhengqing.

Contemptuously, with a cold sneer.

"Lan Zhengqing, are you mad?"

"You’re the crazy one! You, a mere Ninth Layer Supreme of Ancient, dare to take me on, and you call me mad?!"

"Hehe. I act because I have confidence, but do you have confidence in saying such things to Qiu Xi now?"

"Who said I don’t have confidence?! Qiu Xi has always been my woman, always been my woman! Understand? She’s always been my subordinate, but ever since you appeared, her heart has flown! You’re the one who took her from me, it’s all because of you! Damn it!"

"..."

Lin Fan shrugged helplessly, it seemed that Lan Zhengqing was truly mad, putting every blame on him.

Clearly, he himself looked down on Qiu Xi, and now he blamed him for taking Qiu Xi away, what a ridiculous logic.

Sigh...

Continuing like this, who knows what a good person will become, truly pitiful, pathetic, lamentable!

He muttered in his heart, turning back to glance at Qiu Xi.

Only to see Qiu Xi’s eyes welling with tears, shimmering in her bright eyes, she seemed about to cry.

"Qiu Xi? You... you aren’t, right..."

Lin Fan’s face immediately fell, rolling his eyes helplessly. Could it be that Qiu Xi was really moved by this guy’s few words?

Not entirely impossible.

After all, Lan Zhengqing had always occupied a place in Qiu Xi’s heart.

This deep emotion may have already taken root in her heart.

Just like Lin Fan merely trimmed the grown branches and leaves, making Qiu Xi temporarily forget Lan Zhengqing. But Lan Zhengqing’s casual words were like watering the parched soil, making those rooted thoughts germinate and occupy Qiu Xi’s heart again.

Hadn’t all his previous efforts been in vain?!

Without eradicating the root, it seems impossible to make Qiu Xi forget Lan Zhengqing. But given the critical situation, if Qiu Xi really believed Lan Zhengqing’s nonsense, she’d be deceived utterly, possibly losing her life.

But he also understood Lan Zhengqing’s standing in Qiu Xi’s heart. Changing this drastically wasn’t realistic.

Lin Fan never expected his backyard to catch fire!

Things have gone awry!
