The King of Urban Mercenaries

Chapter 1658 - 1663: Boundless Great Wilderness

"Big brother, are you really that heartless? Look at me, I’m so pitiful, and I’m still injured. Do you really have the heart to send me back to the Upper Realm?" Zhang Fan put on a pitiful look, trying to win Lin Fei’s sympathy.

Lin Fei was also taken aback by the sudden change in style, "Zhang Fan, oh Zhang Fan, you’re really something—educated, skilled, and able to play the victim. It’s a shame you’re not an actor."

"What’s an actor?" Zhang Fan asked in confusion. She was unaware of the structure and rules of life in the Lower Realm, just as ordinary people in the Lower Realm couldn’t understand why people from the Upper Realm had such powerful abilities. The two were originally two separate worlds and didn’t overlap.

"It’s a profession where you pretend and act. You’re very much like that, so that’s why I said it. And by the way, I mentioned actors, and you don’t even know what that means. Plus, with your bad temper, wouldn’t that be the cause of trouble in the Lower Realm? Do you think I’d let you run amuck down here? Keep out of trouble." Lin Fei didn’t want to let a troublemaker stay in the Lower Realm.

Hearing Lin Fei’s words, Zhang Fan was disappointed, but he hadn’t given up. He thought for a moment and suddenly decided, saying, "How about this—I just tag along with you. From now on, whatever you tell me to do, I’ll do it, but only within the Lower Realm. How about that?"

Lin Fei was speechless, but Zhang Fan’s words did spark an idea in him, which was to let Zhang Fan follow him and then resist those coming from the Upper Realm to the Lower Realm?

Once this idea appeared, Lin Fei couldn’t shake it off. Until now, it had always been Lin Fei fighting alone, and deep inside he was very weary, but he didn’t know who to ask for help.

Now with Zhang Fan here, it was simply like adding wings to a tiger, a gift delivered to his doorstep.

"Are you serious? You’re not fooling me?" Lin Fei looked at Zhang Fan.

Zhang Fan nodded, "Of course, I’m serious. Do you think I’d deceive you? You must know my reputation for honesty is very high!"

"Tch, trust you as if!" Lin Fei gave him a disdainful glance.

Zhang Fan was infuriated, pointing at Lin Fei, and cursed, "You! Lin Fei, right? You can doubt my character but never insult my integrity or doubt my honesty."

Lin Fei nodded, looking very seriously at Zhang Fan, which made Zhang Fan feel a bit flustered and embarrassed.

"You... why are you looking at me like that! Sicko!"

"Do you have medicine?" Lin Fei chuckled.

"How about trying the Bone Healing Technique?" Zhang Fan raised his fist and shook it.

Lin Fei laughed and said, "Okay, I’ll agree to your request. I accept you staying in the Lower Realm, but you have to follow the rules and not cause chaos, or else I’ll kick you out and send you back to the Upper Realm."

"Alright, alright, as long as I can have some fun," Zhang Fan happily agreed to Lin Fei.

Lin Fei took out the Divine Stone and checked its flashing frequency, discovering it was shining constantly. That way, he wouldn’t know if anyone from the Upper Realm had arrived.

"Gather all your power, I’ll see if I can still sense your power," Lin Fei said as he held the stone.

"I know about this kind of Divine Sensory Stone. As long as you concentrate your breath within your body, it won’t get detected. I never figured you’d have such a stone, no wonder you found me so quickly," Zhang Fan said.

Lin Fei nodded, "Someone from the Upper Realm gave this to me, so I can’t break it, or else I won’t be able to find other people coming from the Upper Realm."

Lin Fei cherished it dearly, as this thing also had a summoning function, transporting Dugu Aotian over, but he didn’t tell Zhang Fan. He wouldn’t divulge everything to Zhang Fan since he came from the Upper Realm, and if he suddenly attacked Lin Fei or had any malicious intentions, Lin Fei needed to be prepared, right?

"Let me have a look, what do you say?" Zhang Fan asked, at this moment his Heaven and Earth Qi inside his body was already extremely weak, but still made the Divine Stone flicker.

"The stone in your hand is the super-sensitive kind, a top-grade Divine Stone, a very powerful item. I’m afraid I can’t avoid its detection," Zhang Fan had to admit. His supposed method only worked for ordinary Divine Stones, but Lin Fei’s stone was extremely sensitive, a top-grade Divine Stone, a priceless thing in the market.

Lin Fei shook his head, thinking if you crushed it, then I’d be out of luck, so don’t even think about it.

After speaking, Lin Fei flew towards the distance, "Follow me, I’m heading to a place."

Lin Fei headed towards the Beidou Sect, which was the best place to store such a Divine Stone. He placed the stone there, and then let Zhang Fan withdraw into the distance, there shouldn’t be any big problems.

"Alright, brother. We’ll head off now. In half an hour, check the stone’s frequency, and if anything goes wrong, inform me," Lin Fei instructed Leng Daoqiu to memorize Zhang Fan’s frequency. If another frequency appeared, he’d rush over immediately.

Leng Daoqiu looked at Zhang Fan and then said, "Be careful."

Although he didn’t understand why Lin Fei was with someone from the Upper Realm, he knew that since Lin Fei decided this, he must have his reasons. So, he didn’t ask too much and just advised Lin Fei to be cautious, because this matter was different. The other party was from the Upper Realm, and if he harbored any treacherous intentions and attacked Lin Fei, it wouldn’t be trivial.

Currently, Lin Fei was the entire Lower Realm’s hope and could not afford any mishap!

Lin Fei nodded, "Don’t worry, brother, I know."

Then Lin Fei left the Beidou Sect with Zhang Fan and returned home.

Half an hour later, Leng Daoqiu saw the Divine Stone had almost stopped flickering and thus told the disciples to constantly monitor the stone’s frequency. If there was any problem, they’d report to him immediately.

After returning home with Zhang Fan, Zhang Fan looked at this city and felt it was incredibly novel. He had never seen such architecture before, and there were so many people in these buildings.

The same was true down below.

"There are really a lot of people in the Lower Realm!" Zhang Fan exclaimed sincerely.

"Aren’t there lots of people in the Upper Realm too?" Lin Fei chuckled.

Zhang Fan nodded, "You’re right, there are more people in the Upper Realm, but the Upper Realm is thousands of times larger than the Lower Realm, so to be serious, people aren’t as densely packed as in the Lower Realm."

"Whoa, is the Upper Realm really that big?" Lin Fei was shocked. If the Lower Realm was worth ten, the Upper Realm would be at least ten thousand, if not a hundred thousand in scale. That’s intimidating!

"Of course, otherwise how could it withstand the strikes of those big players? You must understand, in a city like this, a big player could wipe out everyone with a single slap." Zhang Fan explained, and that’s just how it is in the Upper Realm.
