Cultivation Pet Shop

Three days passed very quickly when nothing happened.

Lin Fan ran the store as normal and as the days went by, he included more and more training spots until he reached his max of fifty.

It was possible for him to increase that by buying more cages from the system, but he chose not to do so since he felt that it was just the right number.

If he were to give more spots, it wouldn't feel as special since it wasn't limited. The more limited something was, the more people felt that it was special because it was considered rare.

Not to mention that with more of these pets, it would mean having to run more than one load of training sessions. Currently the shadow cultivation room was only able to fit fifty different pets at once. If he were to take on more than fifty, it would mean having to rotate them out instead of leaving them inside overnight which would also decrease the quality of the training.

While the quality of the training wouldn't suffer that much, it would be visible to him.

After running this shop for so long, he had developed the pride of a pet shop owner and he wouldn't cut down on the quality of his service to increase his capacity.

During these three days, there were more young masters that came to scout out the place.

Most of them just looked around before leaving, but there were some that came up to the counter to talk to Lin Fan. When they did though, the first thing that they asked him was about the master of the shop.

Even though there was plenty of footage on the forums that showed Lin Fan beating up Child Soul Realm Experts, everyone still believed that there was a master who was behind this store that was training all the pets instead of Lin Fan.

However, when they were met with rejection from Lin Fan, not a single person dared to raise their voice.

They had seen how Lin Fan had thrown out the City Lord's son and then taken care of his two Child Soul Realm bodyguards. For them who were only in the Fragmented and Embryo Soul Realms, to try to fight Lin Fan was crazy.

When the night of the banquet came, the first thing that came was a package from the Hunters Organization.

Lin Fan was confused when he saw the package, but then he understood when he saw what was inside.

The package contained a full suit that felt very smooth to the touch. Looking carefully, Lin Fan could easily tell that this was a very well made suit that was made with very expensive materials.

Seeing this, it made him lean more towards the idea that he was being used as a scapegoat to get rid of an annoying suitor.

After the store closed, the beast carriage arrived on time and waited outside the store for Lin Fan.

It took him five minutes to change into the suit that had been sent out for him and when he came out of the store, the driver of the beast carriage and everyone else who was walking around couldn't help taking a cold breath.

The phrase the clothes really made a man fit perfectly here.

Lin Fan was already handsome even without the suit, but when he put the suit on, it was like changing a ten to an eleven. 

It really was a man in a suit that looked the best because it made him much more serious than normal. This seriousness was completely different from Lin Fan's normal seriousness, like going from an eastern feel to a western feel.

All the people that had been in the surrounding shops that were open couldn't help coming out when they saw Lin Fan. The people that gathered around him weren't just female, there were also males that were in the crowd.

It seemed like people knew how to appreciate beautiful things.

Lin Fan ignored all of them as he walked into the beast carriage. After sitting down, he noticed that they weren't moving at all, so he poked his head out and said, "Are we not going?"

The driver realized his mistake and revealed an awkward smile before saying, "Yes, sir Lin, we'll be heading off right away."

With a flick of his wrist, the reins made a cracking sound as they hit the beast and off they went.

As they went, there were people that tried to keep up with them, but this was a special beast carriage that was sent by the Hunters Organization, so it wasn't something that normal people could keep up with. Each of these beasts were in the Embryo Soul Realm, so they definitely didn't move slowly and they soon lost everyone behind them.

This beast carriage moved along for a few minutes before coming to a location that was close to the banquet hall.

At this location, there were three other beast carriages parked outside and they were no less luxurious than the one that Lin Fan came in. They also had the symbol of the Hunters Organization on them.

Inside the location which was a private cafe were three beauties who were all dressed up, sitting there waiting for him.

It was Qiao Yi Fei, Mao Tao and Fu Ling.

The three of them were all sitting at one table, looking at each other without saying a word.

When Lin Fan came in, the ice was broken between them as all three of them used him as an excuse to start talking. It seemed like the silence had been quite painful for them even if they hadn't shown it.

Lin Fan raised his hand to stop all three of them as he looked at Fu Ling and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Fu Ling was surprised when she heard this, but then she pouted her lips as she revealed an annoyed look.

Why was he only picking on her?

Why was he only surprised that she was here?

Why couldn't she be here?

Her grandfather had told her to come and if it wasn't for him, she wouldn't have come at all.

Though while she was thinking this, she got a better look at Lin Fan and she couldn't help swallowing all the angry words that she had been about to say.

She admitted that Lin Fan looked handsome normally, but today was completely something different. When she finally took a good look at him, she had almost forgotten to breathe.

It was the same for the other two girls. They had been about to say something for Fu Ling, but then they also caught a look of Lin Fan and the words had been completely swallowed.

Lin Fan looked at the three girls who were standing in front of him in a daze with a confused look before saying, "Well?"

Fu Ling felt annoyed when she heard this, but it was quickly pushed down as she calmly said, "My grandfather told me to come as well."

Lin Fan looked at the other two girls who had also snapped out of their dazes. Mao Tao said, "That's right, my grandmother wanted to ask you if you could escort Fu Ling as well. She said that she'll make it up to you for suddenly springing this onto you."

Qiao Yi Fei nodded as she said, "My grandfather asked me to tell you the same. He's also asking that you make sure that you bring the three of us back safely."

Lin Fan looked at the three of them before giving a nod.

Since he had already agreed to this favour, there was no difference if there was an extra one. Not to mention that Mao Tao had mentioned extra compensation, so he might as well accept this.

He also had his own plans which was that with the extra girl, he would be able to draw even less fire to himself.

The more girls that he showed up with, the weaker the grudge that would be created with the suitor he was driving off.

While he would be gaining more jealousy from the people around, the suitors would find their relationship less serious if he came with more girls, which meant that there was less of a reason to hate him.

So while they would still hate him, at least it would be at a level that he could manage.

So for once, he didn't mind spreading dog food for all the lonely dogs to eat.

After all, being with beauties was also pleasing to his eye and there was no doubt that Fu Ling was also a beauty.

If she wasn't, she wouldn't have been included as one of the Five Flowers of Harmony City.

So once that was settled, they rested here for a bit before heading off in the beast carriages.

They wanted to head to the banquet, but since this was a banquet that invited plenty of famous people, that would mean the media would be all over this banquet. The later that they showed up, the better since there would be more attention drawn by other people and it would be easier for them to sneak in.

It was also why they had come to this arranged location beforehand, it was to make sure that no one noticed that the three of them, well it was now four of them, being together.

Since they had all gathered, they all took one single carriage.

The three girls were silent the entire time, partly because they didn't want to talk to each other, but mainly because they were enjoying the view.

Lin Fan on the other hand was looking out the window, looking in the direction they were heading in.

As he sat there, he couldn't help having a bad feeling about tonight…
