Facing Yukieko's kind reminder, Ling Fan responded indifferently, "Thank you for your concern, but a re Martial Alliance and family won't cause to change my plans!"
Joking, when Official Ling went to Snow Country, he was there to deal with such issues, how could he possibly desert halfway!
"You...." Yukieko was at a loss for words and stomped her feet in frustration.
She imdiately turned and looked at Nora urgently, "Sister Nora, please persuade this guy. The Koizumi Family is backed by the Koga Ryumai, not to ntion the Martial Alliance which holds sway over the Snow Country Martial Arts World. If you two go there, you will surely end up dead without a burial site!"
Nora looked at Yukieko's anxious face and felt slightly moved, "Little sister, don't worry, nobody can do anything to him!"
Yukieko was incredulous, truly unaware of where these two got their confidence and reassurance from.
Seeing that her persuasion was ineffective, she had no choice but to give up, said helplessly, "You two madn, I really can't do anything with you. Once we're in Snow Country, I'll do my best to protect you!"
Ling Fan, upon hearing this, was sowhat surprised; he did not expect this stranger, Yukieko, to go so far to help them.
Just then, Nora suddenly felt unwell, a sense of nausea surging to her head; she imdiately covered her mouth and rushed into the bathroom.
This scene left both Ling Fan and Yukieko quite astonished.
After a brief mont of shock, Yukieko quickly realized what was happening and hurried after her, "Sister Nora, are you alright?"
Ling Fan frowned, knowing Nora was a martial artist and even at the Grandmaster Realm, logically, she shouldn't feel such illness!
Shortly after, Nora returned with Yukieko's help, looking pale.
"How are you feeling?" Ling Fan asked, his expression serious.
"I'm not sure, maybe I didn't rest well last night!" Nora also found it strange. She did not think much about it as she had been up late chatting with Yukieko the night before, almost until dawn.
Ling Fan remained silent, martial artists don't usually suffer from lack of rest, let alone just one night. They can go days without sleep without any issues.
"Nora, could it be that you are..." Yukieko suddenly brightened.
Ling Fan, "..."
Nora, "..."
The two exchanged glances, thinking this must be a joke. Neither of them had done "that", so how could it be possible.
Yukieko, unaware of these facts, recalled seeing the two in the room together for two hours yesterday and thought they must usually work very hard!
"Young man, Nora has been affected by the Yin Soul's energy, and that's why!" the Holy Princess suddenly spoke up.
Ling Fan was briefly taken aback, puzzled, and imdiately started discussing with the Holy Princess, "How is that possible, there is no Yin Soul energy here!"
"Well, of course, it's Yukieko!" the Holy Princess said indifferently.
Ling Fan was imdiately shocked and glanced surreptitiously at Yukieko, his expression chilling slightly, "Is there sothing wrong with her?"
"Of course, she is possessed by a Yin Soul, and quite a strong one at that. This little girl has the Nine Yin Physique, which greatly nourishes the Yin Soul. That's why she has been possessed and has been unable to cultivate or live past the age of twenty!" the Holy Princess explained briefly.
Ling Fan, having heard this, suddenly understood, "So her terminal illness was this?"
"Yes, she just doesn't know it herself. Even if she did, there's no one who could solve it, otherwise, it would have been resolved long ago!" the Holy Princess nodded.
"Nora was possessed too?" Ling Fan frowned.
"No, she was just tainted. Weren't they together last night? Just separate them for a couple of days and it should be fine. Nora is a Martial Artist as well, so her resistance is relatively strong!" the Holy Princess explained.
Ling Fan glanced at Yukieko and finally understood a bit.
"You usually don't have anyone daring to be close to you for a long ti, do you?" Ling Fan suddenly spoke.
Upon hearing this, Yukieko was startled, then her face turned pale, and finally, she silently lowered her head.
Nora was also sowhat stunned, not knowing why Ling Fan would suddenly say such a thing, but being a keen person herself, she quickly understood sothing and couldn't help but look towards Yukieko, whose expression was very poor, secretly becoming alert.
"I'm sorry, I thought I could beco friends with you all, but it seems I am destined for this. I won't disturb your rest anymore!" Yukieko said, her expression forlorn, as she stood up and walked towards the door.
Nora, surprised, saw Yukieko's deanor and also knew there was an issue.
"Wait, I was just asking you a question. I didn't say you could leave!" Ling Fan imdiately stopped Yukieko.
Yukieko paused, standing still, "Well, I've always had to sleep alone at night. Even during the day, my Close Retainers can't be with for a long ti, so they take turns being by my side!"
"Kid, do you want to help her? I can teach you a thod. She only has a Remnant Soul residing in her. Your Soul Power is no problem!" the Holy Princess spoke.
Ling Fan nodded, and then the Holy Princess transmitted the Breaking Arts to Official Ling.
"Right, this girl's Nine Yin Physique is also quite useful for you. If you were to sleep with her, it would benefit your body as well, consider it yourself!" the Holy Princess hinted suggestively.
Ling Fan was speechless; he wasn't about to take advantage of soone in distress.
He imdiately gathered his thoughts, his gaze indifferent as he looked at Yukieko, "Seeing as you just made an effort to protect us, I will give you a hand!"
Speaking, Soul Power surged dramatically around him, enveloping Yukieko's entire body. Then, he pointed his fingers repeatedly in the air, shooting multiple Seal Arts at Yukieko's body.
Suddenly, Ling Fan stretched out his hands into the void, as if grabbing sothing invisible, and pulled forcefully outward.
With Ling Fan's action, a gray ghostly shadow twisted and ripped away from Yukieko's body.
At this sight, Nora shivered in fear, and even Yukieko's face turned pale, shocked by the scene unfolding before her.
The gray shadow, once separated, was wrapped by Ling Fan's Soul Power. Despite its fierce struggling and twisting, it couldn't escape at all. The shadow seed extrely angry and agitated, wildly slamming against the Soul Power barrier, trying to charge at Ling Fan!
Instantly, Nora covered her mouth, her body breaking out in a cold sweat, hands and feet icy cold, while Yukieko stood by, dumbfounded, shocked that such a terrifying monster had been residing within her body.
Ling Fan looked at the ferocious Remnant Soul before him and coldly snorted, "A broken Yin Soul refusing to properly reincarnate and instead lingering in the world to harm others, and even dare to be disrespectful to , a worthless thing!"
With that, he imdiately unleashed Exotic Fire from his hand, directly turning the Yin Soul before him into ash, depriving it of even the chance to reincarnate.
anwhile, in the Aragaki Shrine of the Shennai District in Snow Country, a frantic, mournful howl erupted, "Damn it, which bastard destroyed my Soul Fragnt and ruined my nourishnt.
Soone, go investigate, find this person. I want to extract their soul and turn it into a Soul Servant!"
The presiding official standing at the door was imdiately sweating profusely as he took the command, trembling as he left the Offering Hall.
On the ship, Ling Fan's facial expression was slightly weary as he spoke indifferently to the dazed Yukieko, "Because of that thing just now, you wouldn't have lived past twenty. That was the reason for your shortened lifespan; now you're free!"
