After waiting a short while, Jin Xiya set up a simple soundproof array nearby before summoning them both out.
What she didn't know was that Luo Fan had sealed off the surrounding space as he came out, so as not to attract the old man's attention.
"Long time no see!" Luo Fan was the first to send her a telepathic message, pulling her out of her thoughts. "You look like you're in big trouble. Do you need my help?"
Jin Xiya sighed, her gaze grave.
"Luo Fan, you're here to collect the weapons, right? Time is limited, and I've only forged two so far, which may not be enough to fulfill your request."
"No rush, I've found even better materials and I need your help." Seeing the girl change the subject, Luo Fan still cooperated earnestly.
After all, Jin Xiya was a strong woman. Although her question wasn't difficult for him, he still wanted to know what her final choice would be.
The storyline of the slime prince rescuing the princess in distress should greatly win over the girls!
"I probably can't help you anymore. You should have already found that Holy Archmage outside, right?"
Seele, who was standing to the side, secretly peeked at her master and covered her mouth, giggling softly. She had become much more lively since Luo Fan arrived.
"Yes, so you're planning to marry that second prince?"
"I don't want to either! Luo Fan, can you help me? Take Xier with you after I leave!"
At this moment, Jin Xiya looked at him seriously, completely ignoring the mischievous Xi'er on the side.
"And what about you?"
"I'll die with that bastard! As long as he's alive, he'll never let my family go!" Her expression was filled with sorrow. Hearing this, Xi'er fell silent, pitifully clinging to Luo Fan and pleading for mercy.
"What if I could help you take down that Holy Archmage?" Gently stroking Seele's hair, Luo Fan understood her determination.
Jinxia was stunned, her mind blank for a moment. "Stop joking! That's a Saint Magister!"
Seeing Luo Fan's calm demeanor, she tentatively probed him with some suspicion.
"You really can take him down?"
"Of course, it's very simple for me, just a Saint Magister."
A mere Saint Magister? Jin Xiya felt her mind was starting to malfunction. Was Luo Fan trying to comfort her?
The opponent is a peak human being, how could a mere slime like him easily defeat him?
Seeing the girl's confused expression, Luo Fan didn't press her further. He simply flashed and brought her back. The old man was filled with terror, completely unaware of what had happened. He tried to break free, but the surrounding space was sealed off, making escape impossible.
"Now you should believe me, right? The world outside has changed. Even gods are out and about. Holy Magisters are worthless now!"
It took Jin Xiya a while to react; she really couldn't understand it. Watching the old man frantically gesturing with his mouth, looking panicked, even though she couldn't hear any sound, she still felt incredibly satisfied.
"What do you plan to do with him? I plan to kill him directly to avoid any further complications."
The crisis was averted, and Luo Fan's unexpected monstrous nature gave her a chance to survive.
"Whatever you want. And thank you!" After saying that, Jin Xiya hurriedly ran out, a hint of excitement finally appearing on her face. She needed to arrange for her people to be moved to a safe place as soon as possible.
"Brother Fan, you're so naughty, teasing my sister like that!"
"That's good! She can finally relax and I can improve my chances with her. Don't worry, with her intelligence, she should know what to do next!"
Soon, the sounds of fighting came from outside. After she dealt with the accompanying officials, the group hurriedly left the manor.
Not long after, after arranging the whereabouts of the family members and watching the clansmen sneak into the mountains in batches, Jin Xiya left with Luo Fan.
Taking advantage of this short time, Luo Fan also cleaned up a nearby high-level metal-element dungeon and condensed the last metal-element clone he needed.
When it was time to part, although Jin Xiya was still very reluctant, this time Luo Fan did not let her have her way and took her northward.
"Where are you taking me? To Caitlin's?"
"There are too many people and too many eyes over there, why don't you go and stay in the secret realm for a while?"
"A secret realm?"
"The Elf Realm, I know its secret entrance! Seele can also meet her tree grandfather, and many other friends."
Jinxia was speechless; he had even found the secret realm. However, she still revealed what she knew about the Fisher Empire.
The empire is arresting people everywhere, mainly adventurers. Although the specific purpose is unknown, Jinxia suspects that the royal family definitely has ill intentions.
Luo Fan had a bold idea. Considering what he had seen before, the country's population was indeed rather small.
It seems that the imperial city isn't too far from the Demon Abyss, and there's a high possibility that it also has a direct portal to it. Are they doing this to open the gates to the Demon Abyss?
This world is already chaotic enough, and yet there are still people stirring things up. No matter what, I must stop them as soon as possible.
If a large number of demons were to emerge now, I wouldn't have time to develop. Going to the upper realm would have to wait until after I take human form.
What are you planning to do?
After a series of spatial escapes, Jinxia had adapted and found herself in the Monster Forest.
"So be it. Since the Fisher Empire is trying to disrupt my plans, then don't blame me for being impolite!"
"By the way, do you need me to arrest that second prince and hand him over to you to deal with?"
"No need, I don't want to see that bastard again!"
Elf Realm.
Returning to her birthplace, Seele was overjoyed, dancing and giving Luo Fan several big kisses before running off to play with her friends.
"Sister Jin Xiya, it's been a long time!" Ellie ran over excitedly when she saw a familiar face again.
"Long time no see!" Upon discovering that Ellie had already reached the level of a Grand Mage Level 8, Jin Xiya had adapted to this change and didn't find it particularly surprising, after all, Luo Fan was a bit of an oddball.
Luo Fan, who was on the side, briefly hugged the other girls who ran over, and then pulled Ai Li to change the scene.
Speaking of which, the Tree Spirit Realm is quite useful, as you can switch between various environments at will.
"What's wrong?"
Ellie was somewhat taken aback when she suddenly found herself in a cave.
"There are a few inscriptions you need to choose from." After saying that, he introduced the dark human inscriptions in front of her and let her choose the one she liked.
Ellie stared wide-eyed, curiously observing.
"Can I really have these?"
"Of course, your mother has already taken what she needed. Now, try refining one yourself first. It shouldn't be too difficult."
"Oh, then I'll choose the Magic Gathering one. This should help me level up, right?"
"Hmm~" Luo Fan was pleased to see the girl choose this. Although they hadn't seen each other for a while, Ai Li had been working very hard.
Once I've collected all the necessary inscriptions for Lilith, I'll have Ellie learn from her.
After helping Ellie channel the inscription into her body and waiting for her to settle down completely, and receiving a wave of dark magic feedback, Luo Fan prepared to leave.
He gave Jinxia a few brief instructions, stuffed a bunch of good stuff into her hands, and asked her to forge suitable equipment.
He added some magic cores and spiritual materials to his other attribute clones, gave some instructions to the clingy Xiaoxue, and said a few words to the tree spirit before fleeing the secret realm and rushing towards Shadow Valley.
"Xue'er, I feel like Brother Fan is acting a little strange!" Little Ling'er grabbed Xiao Xue after watching Luo Fan disappear.
"Is there?" After thinking about it for a while, Xiaoxue also noticed that Luo Fan was indeed somewhat different from before, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what it was.
"I don't know if I saw it wrong. I hope his trip goes well!" Little Bell looked at the spot where he disappeared, feeling uneasy.
