Chapter 1795: Chapter 1794: Treasure An Lan
Lin Dong rescued Zhang Feng because he saw at heart, Zhang Feng wasn’t truly a bad person.
Otherwise, Lin Dong naturally wouldn’t have saved him.
At this mont, seeing Zhang Feng kneeling in gratitude, Lin Dong waved his hand and said, “A real man shouldn’t kneel at the drop of a hat.”
Zhang Feng nodded, “Mr. Dong Lin is right. In the future, I will express my gratitude through actions.”
Lin Dong shook his head, not taking these words to heart.
At this mont, he turned to An Lan and noticed that after realizing Zhang Feng was unhard, An Lan had been tiptoeing, trying to sneak away.
“Stop right there,” Lin Dong shouted sternly.
An Lan, who had been about to flee, froze in place, standing still.
anwhile, Zhang Feng glared at her angrily.
Clearly, An Lan’s deception earlier had made Zhang Feng furious.
“You bastard! How dare you pretend to be Master Lin’s disciple? Who do you think you are?”
An Lan stuck out her tongue, lowered her head, and dared not speak.
Lin Dong, exasperated, asked, “Why did you impersonate Master Lin’s disciple?”
Zhang Feng added, “Pretending to be the disciple of my idol, Master Lin, you tricked
terribly. I really want to slap you to death!”
Saying this, he raised his hand, about to slap An Lan.
An Lan suddenly burst into tears with a loud “wah.” Seeing her cry, Zhang Feng hesitated and stopped mid-swing.
“Explain, why did you impersonate Master Lin’s disciple?” Zhang Feng demanded angrily. “If you can’t give
a good reason, crying won’t save you!”
An Lan choked out between sobs, “Sob sob, I had no choice! I’m originally from Jiangbei in the Jiangnan Province of the Dragon Country, born into a small family. I know a little about the Martial Way but just a very little…”
“Apart from that, I know a bit of dical Arts, though I’ve never systematically studied it. My skills are diocre.”
“Back in the Dragon Country, with my limited skills in the Martial Way and dical Arts, I was doing alright. But fate was unkind… I had to fall for an online romance…”
“Sob sob, I fell for a ‘rich and handso’ guy online and had been in a relationship for a few months. We agreed to et in Jadeite City.”
“Who would’ve thought, sob sob, it was all a scam!”
“That so-called rich and handso guy wasn’t rich or handso at all! The person I t wasn’t even a man—it was a 200-pound woman!”
“After eting her, I imdiately wanted to leave, but four or five low-level martial artists grabbed
and brought
to Southborne.”
“Sob sob… Luckily, I’m clever and managed to trick them into fighting among themselves. During their infighting, I secretly escaped.”
“But in this foreign country, my ID card, wallet, phone, and everything else were confiscated by them. I had no way to return ho, so I could only pretend to be Master Lin’s disciple to work as a healer and earn so travel funds to go back.”
After hearing this, Lin Dong, Qin Yitian, and the others fell silent.
It must be said, An Lan was truly remarkable.
A martial artist, albeit a low-level one, actually got scamd in an online romance and ended up in Southborne. This could be considered groundbreaking in the Martial Arts World.
The most bizarre part was that the people who captured her were actually tricked into infighting by her, and she successfully escaped.
It must be said, she was a talent!
Zhang Feng said in a low voice, “You could make money in plenty of ways. Why impersonate Master Lin’s disciple?”
“Why Master Lin specifically?”
Scratching her head in embarrassnt, An Lan replied, “Because among the big shots I know in the Martial Arts World who also know dical Arts, there’s only Master Lin.”
“And we’re from the sa hotown. People from our hotown really admire Master Lin.”
“His feats are known far and wide in the Jiangbei Martial Arts World. Who doesn’t know of him?”
Hearing this, Zhang Feng asked, “So, you’re also a fan of Master Lin?”
“Of course. As soone from Jiangbei, I take pride in Master Lin. Of course, I’m his fan. Unfortunately, I’ve never had the chance to et him, which is truly regrettable,” An Lan sighed.
Upon realizing that she, too, was a fan of Master Lin and even his hotown fellow, Zhang Feng had already forgiven her in his heart.
However, recalling how she tricked him so badly just now, and sold him those absurd “Leopard and Tiger Pills” at a high price, he remained sowhat angry.
“In the future, don’t impersonate Master Lin’s disciple anymore! If your dical Arts were exceptional and could truly cure illnesses, claiming to be his disciple would be acceptable. But with your half-baked skills pretending to be his disciple, aren’t you tarnishing his na?”
“Master Lin has passed away, and you’re still sullying his reputation. Is this sothing a fan should do?”
Lowering her head as she was scolded, An Lan began crying again, “Sob sob, I didn’t do it on purpose. I really had no other choice.”
Seeing her cry, Zhang Feng sighed and said, “Forget it. About you tricking
this ti, I won’t hold it against you. But from now on, stop impersonating Master Lin’s disciple. Understand?”
“Mm, mm, I understand,” An Lan nodded.
At this mont, Lin Dong continued questioning, “An Lan, let
ask you, were the people who kidnapped you marked with tattoos of the sun and moon?”
“Yes, yes, yes! How did you know?” An Lan asked in surprise.
Lin Dong replied, “Because when we ca to Southborne, we encountered similar people, who were abducting girls from our Dragon Country.”
“Ah, I see! It seems these people specifically target girls from our Dragon Country. Who are they anyway?” An Lan murmured.
Actually, she was mistaken; those people didn’t just target Dragon Country girls. They specifically targeted girls regardless of nationality.
Moreover, the girls they captured were always young, typically aged between their teens and early twenties.
They all shared one characteristic!
That is—they were all virgins!
“Tattoos of the sun and moon—they belong to the Brahman organization, don’t they? The Brahmans worship the sun and moon. To join their ranks, their mbers must tattoo their bodies with sun and moon symbols,” Zhang Feng explained at this mont.
“Why do they target girls from the Dragon Country?” An Lan asked curiously.
Smirking, Zhang Feng replied, “That’s a naive question. In Southborne, do these organizations need a reason to abduct people?”
“Organizations like the Brahman group have wreaked havoc in Southborne for years. They’re a deeply entrenched, dark force. The people they’ve kidnapped and killed are too nurous to count.”
“In places like this, such things are barely worth ntioning.”
Hearing this, An Lan turned pale.
Although she had heard before that Southborne was chaotic, she hadn’t imagined it to be this dark.
“Sob sob, now that they’ve targeted , I’m dood for sure. Those Brahman people won’t easily let
go, will they?” An Lan’s face turned deathly pale as she cried again.
Spreading his hands, Zhang Feng said, “That’s for sure. You were their prey, and now, after being tricked by you into infighting, once they recover, they’ll stop at nothing to recapture you.”
“Ah…” Hearing this, An Lan burst into tears again. She quickly looked toward Qin Yitian and Lin Dong.
Then, with a pitiful expression, she said, “Why don’t you take
in? Let
stay by your side? I can do laundry, cook, wash your socks—just protect , please!”
Seeing this, Qin Yitian couldn’t help but laugh.
She thought An Lan was truly a character.
Having soone tag along wasn’t a big deal for her.
Protecting soone from the Brahman organization in Southborne might be difficult for others.
But for Qin Yitian, it wasn’t even worth ntioning.
Finding An Lan interesting, Qin Yitian decided to protect her.
So she said, “Alright, you can stay by my side. With
here, nobody in Southborne can hurt you.”
