Extraordinary Medical Saint in the City-Chapter 1100 - 1098: You’re Not Just Bold, You’re Reckless!

"Thank you!"

Lin Fan cupped his fists and bowed slightly.

"I will escort the little Princess back to the Xuan Clan. Regarding Yun'er, I will definitely give the Sword Emperor an explanation."

His voice was clear and straightforward.

After speaking, Lin Fan turned around and walked towards the door.

His left foot had just crossed the threshold, and his body had not yet followed.

"Wait a moment."

A cold voice stopped him.

Lin Fan paused, standing in the doorway.

Mo Ningxiang was by his side, equally anxious. Could it be that Uncle Fifth was still unwilling to let Lin Fan go? She quickly turned around, her eyes reddened, and looked at the Fifth Sword Emperor, just about to speak.

However.

The Fifth Sword Emperor's face did not show a stern expression, but rather revealed a hint of concern.

Uncle Fifth was worried about Lin Fan? Mo Ningxiang blinked, unable to understand the meaning of the Fifth Sword Emperor's expression.

Lin Fan turned back and, like Mo Ningxiang, read concern on the Fifth Sword Emperor's face.

He frowned slightly, saying nothing.

"Are you going to the Xuan Clan?" the Fifth Sword Emperor asked.

"Yes."

Then there was a moment of silence.

The Fifth Sword Emperor furrowed his brows, staring intently at Lin Fan. His mouth moved as if wanting to say something but glanced at Mo Ningxiang and swallowed his words.

Lin Fan noticed the abnormality in the Fifth Sword Emperor, as if he sensed something.

"Uncle Fifth, what is it?"

Mo Ningxiang asked curiously. She felt that the Fifth Sword Emperor seemed to be deliberately hiding something.

"It's nothing."

The Fifth Sword Emperor smiled slightly at Mo Ningxiang, but when he turned to Lin Fan, his expression became serious.

"Ningxiang, have you had a hard journey? It's been a long time since you came to visit your uncle; take a rest first. I'll have someone prepare some food for you."

Mo Ningxiang was puzzled, not understanding.

Before she could speak, the Fifth Sword Emperor had already made the arrangements.

"A Fu, take Ningxiang to rest and instruct the kitchen to prepare her favorite dishes."

"Yes."

A Fu walked to Mo Ningxiang's side, gesturing for her to follow.

"Little Princess, please come with me."

Mo Ningxiang's face was full of confusion, looking blankly at the Fifth Sword Emperor, then at Lin Fan.

Was Uncle Fifth deliberately sending her away to make things difficult for Brother Lin Fan?

She widened her eyes in sudden horror, just about to plead.

"Little Princess, it's okay, you go rest first. The journey has been exhausting for you."

Lin Fan smiled calmly, his expression unruffled.

Mo Ningxiang blinked hard, relaxing her tense body, and whispered, "Then, alright...you be careful..."

The Fifth Sword Emperor chuckled. This little girl, is she afraid I'll eat Lin Fan? It seems she's taken a liking to him.

Lin Fan truly is an unfathomable person.

Yun'er also shielded him with a sword, likely also fond of him.

Mo Ningxiang looked back repeatedly, reluctantly leaving.

The Fifth Sword Emperor also dismissed the attendants.

The vast courtyard.

Quiet, empty.

Leaving only Lin Fan and the Fifth Sword Emperor, facing each other, with burning gazes.

The Fifth Sword Emperor said nothing and walked towards the pavilion, sitting majestically on the stone bench, legs slightly apart, one hand resting on the stone table, the other on his leg.

His sharp eyes, stern expression, exuding an aura of undeniable authority.

"Sit."

He signaled to Lin Fan with his eyes, his voice cold.

Lin Fan strode over.

He sat down.

Yet there was a fearless boldness to him.

"Yun'er ended up like this, you bear an undeniable responsibility, and I have enough reason to kill you."

"I know."

"But do you know why I changed my mind?"

"Because I harmed Yun'er but also saved her."

"Hehe, no."

Lin Fan was taken aback, suddenly looking at the Fifth Sword Emperor.

"The moment you stepped out, I had planned to act. But unexpectedly, you suddenly said something."

"The Xuan Clan?"

"That's right. You said you're taking Ningxiang back to the Xuan Clan, and I knew you were doomed."

The Fifth Sword Emperor's expression was cold, laced with a hint of killing intent.

He slowly turned his head, his hawk-like gaze fixed on Lin Fan, as if he were looking at prey within arm's reach.

This fellow seems completely unaware that the Xuan Clan is likely his place of demise, the Fifth Sword Emperor thought.

"Why did you bring Yun'er and Ningxiang to the battlefield?"

Lin Fan's mind was in turmoil; it seemed the Fifth Sword Emperor had learned some things.

His words echoed Mo Qian's—the notion that returning to the Xuan Clan meant certain death.

"I took Ningxiang to avoid Dongmen Nu. Yun'er...after all, they are close friends, so she went along."

The Fifth Sword Emperor raised an eyebrow, surprised that it involved the Heavenly Clan's Dongmen Nu.

He couldn't help but glance at Lin Fan; is this kid trying to make enemies of everyone on the Sumeru Continent?

He actually dared to provoke the Heavenly Clan and anger Dongmen Nu!

"Dongmen Nu..." the Fifth Sword Emperor murmured, sighed. "You're not bold, you're reckless! Alas, your fate is sealed. Mo Yunsheng and Dongmen Nu—do you think you can survive?"

Swish!

A cold light shot from the Fifth Sword Emperor's eyes.

Like a sharp blade piercing into Lin Fan's heart.

This made Lin Fan's body shiver slightly, but he quickly regained composure.

He took a deep breath, his eye twitching, meeting the Fifth Sword Emperor's gaze.

"Did the Sword Emperor learn something?" 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

"Hmm?"

"About Mo Chen...and the Clan Leader..."

"You know?!"

The Fifth Sword Emperor was startled, not expecting Lin Fan to be aware.

"I pried it from General Mo Qian on the battlefield."

"Mo Qian? Mo Qian, who has battled for years, keeps his mouth shut tightly..."

"Everyone fears death," Lin Fan stated coldly, expressionless. "If they don't, they haven't met me yet."

Even the Fifth Sword Emperor couldn't help but inhale sharply. This kid sure has a big mouth! Could it be that he did something to Mo Qian...

The Fifth Sword Emperor's cheek twitched slightly.

Lin Fan ignored the Fifth Sword Emperor's reaction; he was more curious about how much the other knew and how deep.

"How did the Sword Emperor find out?"

The Fifth Sword Emperor came back to his senses and said, "I'm not clear on the specifics, just a guess."

As he spoke, he pulled out an invitation from his chest and placed it on the stone table.

Lin Fan's reaction was as he expected.

Surprise, anger, disdain...all kinds of emotions intertwined, making his face gradually darken, filled with murderous intent.

The Fifth Sword Emperor sighed softly, showing a worried expression, and said quietly, "I don't know how Mo Chen is doing...I am indeed worried about him and also about Ningxiang..."

"Mo Chen is dead." Lin Fan said through clenched teeth, each word heavy.

"What?!"

The Fifth Sword Emperor abruptly stood up, shocked.

"You, you..."

"I pried it from Mo Qian. But it's still unclear whether what Mo Qian said is true, so I thought about going back to investigate. However...since you received this invitation..."

Lin Fan's hand trembled as he picked up the invitation, not continuing.

But he didn't need to say it; the Fifth Sword Emperor understood that what Mo Qian said was likely true.

How could this happen?

He felt as if something was stuck in his throat, preventing him from speaking.

"What were you just talking about? My father is dead?"

A soft voice came.

Panic.

Helplessness.

Confusion.

Lin Fan and the Fifth Sword Emperor were startled, quickly looking over.

Mo Ningxiang stood at the entrance of the courtyard, her body trembling slightly, her wide eyes looking at them in bewilderment.
