After the protectors saw this, they once again surrounded her and released their spiritual senses to check her body.
Ye Qing Huan didn't resist as she let them do what they wanted, but during that time, she looked at me with a smile on her face.
When I saw this, I also couldn't help revealing a faint smile.
However, the two who were pinching my sides didn't help…
But I couldn't blame them either.
After making sure that there was nothing wrong with her for a while, the protectors finally turned to look back at me. This time, they didn't have the same doubtful stance that they had before, but there was still a bit of doubt.
Rather than doubting that I would be able to do what I had claimed that I would be able to do, they were doubtful of how I had accomplished this.
However, I had already told them exactly how I had done it in the first place…
At the same time, I could feel a trace of gratitude, though it was definitely very small and very forced. It was clear that they weren't willing to show any gratitude towards me since in their minds, I was the one who had benefited from this.
Since I had been Ye Qing Huan's first, I couldn't argue with this.
Once they were finished, the leader of the protectors immediately said, "Young miss, we must head back to the family now and let the family head know about this."
The other protectors nodded in agreement to this.
Ye Qing Huan also felt the same, but there was a part of her that hesitated because…she didn't want to leave Lin Fan this quickly yet.
There were still a few things that she wanted to say to him before going.
But the protectors didn't give her this chance as their leader turned to Senior Sister Bing and said, "We no longer have any business here, so if you send us out now, we promise that we won't mention anything that happened here. We will no longer bother you and we will both go our own ways."
Senior Sister Bing looked at Lin Fan when she heard this and when she saw Lin Fan give a nod in response, she lifted her hand as if she was about to send them out.
However, before anything could happen, there was a voice that said, "Wait."
It was a voice that wasn't loud or soft, but it was filled with power. It had a tone that made it clear that she wasn't to be trifled with and she wasn't to be argued with.
So they had no choice but to stop.
The protectors turned to look at Ye Qing Huan, but they found that she had already moved past them and was heading towards Lin Fan.
When they tried to go and surround her, to keep her away from Lin Fan, she raised a hand that stopped all of them. So the only thing that they could do was stand there and watch as she approached him.
At the same time, they couldn't help glaring at Lin Fan.
The pressure that came from those glares, it was as if they thought that he was the one who had somehow mind controlled their young miss into acting this way.
But Lin Fan revealed a secret bitter smile.
In truth, he wanted her to leave as soon as possible since he knew that it was dangerous for him to interact with her for too long.
The longer that they interacted, the more that she would be able to do to trap him…
But he couldn't just tell her to leave…that was the one thing that he didn't have the courage to do.
When she came up in front of him, Ye Qing Huan looked at Mu Bao Bao and Senior Sister Bing before saying, "Can I have a private moment with him? It'll be quick, I just have a few things to say to him."
Then she whispered something that Lin Fan couldn't hear, but it was clear by the change of expression on Mu Bao Bao and Senior Sister Bing's faces that they had heard her.
When they left though, they both pinched Lin Fan in the side that caused him to reveal another bitter smile.
Once they were standing there alone, Ye Qing Huan waved her hand around her. When her hand came down, Lin Fan could sense that there was something that appeared around them.
This was a barrier, but he didn't know what kind of function it had.
If he had to guess…it was most likely a barrier that stopped sound from escaping.
When this barrier appeared, Ye Qing Huan raised her hand and said, "Take this."
Lin Fan couldn't help being surprised to hear this, but he still took the thing that had been handed to him. When he looked down at it, he found that it was a token that had the words Qing Huan on it.
It seemed like it was her personal token.
Ye Qing Huan then said, "I'll come back for you one day."
Lin Fan couldn't help being taken aback when he heard this, but he just gave a simple nod in response. In reality, he was saying in his heart, "Please don't come back…"
It wasn't that he didn't like her, it was just that…she had too much luggage with her.
If one day she ever put down all the things that bound her, then he wouldn't mind being with her.
After she finished giving him this token, she waved her hand and the barrier disappeared.
She walked back over to her protectors before giving a nod to Senior Sister Bing.
Taking this cue, Senior Sister Bing raised her hand before bringing it down.
When it came down, there was a flash of light that appeared. This flash of light came from Ye Qing Huan's group and after it faded, they disappeared.
There was only Lin Fan's group who were left standing in that room.
Lin Fan could feel a pressure coming from behind him and he knew exactly what it was.
The only thing that he could do was reveal a bitter smile before turning around to appease them.
…
When the light in their eyes disappeared, they found that they were back in the same hall as before. However, this time, there was a door that was right in front of them.
This was the same door in the hidden room behind the waterfall that they had entered through to reach the Minor World.
This one in front of them now was most likely the same door that would lead them out through the waterfall again.
But when they saw this door, they couldn't help revealing a bitter smile.
That was because the moment that they exited through the waterfall, they would be immediately seen by everyone.
This wouldn't be a problem right away, but it would be in the long run.
That was because when no one came out of the Minor World after them, everyone would immediately think that they were the culprits.
Then they would try to cause trouble for them to find where their young masters and elders had gone.
In a sense, they had been used as a scapegoat by Lin Fan's group.
But this didn't matter to them since they weren't from the Mu Empire in the first place. They were from a place that was far above the Mu Empire, so no one would actually dare to cause them trouble.
As they came out, Ye Qing Huan once again took the 'Bi Qing' disguise and walked out in front of everyone.
Though they were surprised to see her appear, they didn't do a thing as they waited to see who else would come out.
It didn't take long for Ye Qing Huan's group to leave this place.
Once they were gone, Ye Qing Huan took off the 'Bi Qing' disguise, but she didn't go back to her true appearance either. Instead, with a wave of her hand, she took an appearance that Lin Fan would have been familiar with.
Ye Tian Xie.
This was the young master that he had met at the auction way back in Inferno City.
When the protectors saw this, they weren't surprised by this since they already knew about this.
One of the protectors took out a whistle and gave a blow, summoning a giant eagle from afar.
This eagle landed in front of them and they all jumped onto the back of the eagle before it started flying off.
As they were in the air, Ye Qing Huan couldn't help looking back in the direction of the waterfall with a dazed look. There was a trace of unwillingness that was in her eyes.
When the protectors saw this, they all revealed anxious stances because they could guess what she was thinking.
If what she was thinking was true, then it would mean trouble for them.
At the same time, it would mean trouble for Ye Qing Huan.
So the protectors were about to say something.
But before they could, Ye Qing Huan suddenly said in a cold voice, "Not a single word about what happened in that Minor World, understood?"
She was once again back to the same cold and powerful girl as before.
When the protectors heard this, they all fell to one knee and said, "Yes, young master."
Ye Qing Huan gave another nod before taking one last look backwards.
As she looked back, she muttered under her breath, "Just you wait, I'm not done with you yet."
