Chapter 718 Alchemist Exam (3)
The young master revealed a look of rage when he heard this and his eyes followed Lin Fan’s group as they walked out, but he didn’t do a thing to them.𝓞𝗏𝓵𝐞xt.𝒸𝐎𝓂
He knew that if he did anything, it would be bad for his family.
But he also couldn’t just let this go so easily…
So his brain began to turn as he figured out his plan for revenge.
While he couldn’t take revenge directly, that didn’t mean that he couldn’t take revenge indirectly.
His followers were all silent as they waited for the young master to speak. Many of them had worried looks on their faces since they thought that the young master would vent the anger that he couldn’t vent on them.
However, to their surprise, the young master didn’t lose his temper at all.
Instead, he waved his hand at his number one follower to come over before having him lean in to whisper a few words in his ears.
The number one follower’s eyes opened wide for a second, but then he said with a bow, “Yes young master, I’ll prepare everything right away.” After saying that, the number one follower didn’t waste any time as he ran off.
The young master kept looking in the direction that Lin Fan had left in, even though Lin Fan’s group was already gone. Then after a while, he suddenly gave a chuckle and said, “We’re leaving.”
…
Back to Lin Fan’s group.
As soon as they came out of the Alchemy King Hall, Xiao Tu finally reacted to what had just happened.
This time, she moved too fast for Angela to stop her and she was able to break free of Angela’s hold, landing on the ground in front of them.
As soon as she landed, she started bending over as if she was about to kneel down, but Lin Fan stopped her by holding her hands and keeping her up.
She looked up at Lin Fan with tearful eyes and said, “Please don’t stop me. I have to apologize for everything that I’ve just done.”
However, Lin Fan didn’t let her go down any further. Instead, he used his life energy to force her to stand up straight before looking into her eyes and saying, “You don’t have to apologize for anything.”
Xiao Tu was stunned by the way Lin Fan said this, but then she quickly shook her head and said, “No, no, no, it’s all my fault! If it wasn’t for me, that wouldn’t have happened just now! It’s all my fault!”
Lin Fan revealed a trace of sadness in his eyes when he saw this, but then he patted her head with a smile and said, “It’s not your fault. No one is ever at fault for existing.”
Xiao Tu was once again stunned, but this time, it was a different kind of feeling. As she looked into Lin Fan’s sincere gaze, her eyes couldn’t help filling up with tears.
After a moment of silence, she asked in a tearful low voice, “Is that true?”
Lin Fan patted her head again and said, “Of course it is.”
When Xiao Tu heard this, she couldn’t hold the dams back anymore as tears started bursting out. She moved forward to hug Lin Fan, but before she could, Angela had pushed Lin Fan out of the way and had taken Xiao Tu in her arms.

Yuki immediately also came over and embraced Xiao Tu along with Angela.
The three of them just stood there hugging each other as Xiao Tu cried her eyes out.
With how loud they were, it naturally attracted the attention of the people around them.
Everyone that looked this way all looked over with a look of disdain. It seemed like Xiao Tu was quite well known in this city…Or rather it could be said that she was quite hated in this city.
However, these people didn’t stare for long as they were all scared off by Lin Fan’s gaze and aura.
They could tell that Lin Fan wasn’t a normal person, so they immediately walked off, minding their own business. But even as they walked off, the trace of disdain in their eyes didn’t disappear.
After a while, Xiao Tu’s emotions gradually stabilized.
When she was calm again, her face was covered in a blush, but she didn’t leave the embrace of the two girls.
But still, they had to separate eventually since they were standing out in the open, right in front of the Alchemist King Hall branch.
Lin Fan was the one who broke it up by giving a cough and then saying, “Xiao Tu, how about you show us around Frost City? This is our first time here after all.”
Xiao Tu looked at Lin Fan and then at Angela and Yuki before giving a nod with a smile.
Angela didn’t hold back after seeing this smile as she grabbed hold of Xiao Tu again.
Because she had lost control of her emotions earlier, her ear and tail had popped out. So as soon as Angela grabbed hold of Xiao Tu, the first thing she did was start to rub her ears which really were soft.
Yuki was jealous when she saw this and she immediately came over to rub Xiao Tu’s tail.
Xiao Tu’s face turned red as they rubbed those parts of her and she couldn’t help saying, “No, not there. My ears are my weak spot…”
Lin Fan let them do what they wanted at first, but seeing how it was turning out, he chose to give a cough to stop them.
Angela and Yuki were unwilling, but they could see what it looked like and since they were in public, they chose to stop.
Once they were done, Lin Fan turned back to Xiao Tu with a smile and asked, “Can you show us around the city now?”
This time, Xiao Tu only hesitated a bit before giving a wide smile and a nod in response.
She hesitated a bit before taking Angela and Yuki’s hands, leading them along, letting Lin Fan follow them on his own.
Lin Fan revealed a bitter smile as he thought that he had stopped them because it seemed wrong. It wasn’t because he was jealous about not being able to rub her ears at all…
…
The four of them spent the day just touring around Frost City and when it was time for dinner, they were planning on finding a place to eat. However, before they could do that, Xiao Tu received a message on her watch.
She quickly opened it when she heard the ringtone that was different from the default ringtone.
After reading the message, she awkwardly looked at Lin Fan and said in a hesitant voice, “Uh, big brother Lin…The president of our Hunter Organization branch wants to meet with you. Do you have time for that right now?”
Lin Fan revealed a smile when he saw how cute she was and then he gave a nod in response.
In fact, he was curious about the president of this Hunters Organization branch in the first place.
After all, he was someone that would send a demihuman to pick them up even after receiving an order from old man Qiao to take care of them. For them to do that, it was clear that they had other intentions.
So he was actually interested in meeting them.
After all, he had some ideas as to what kind of intentions this person had based on the clues he had picked up, but before he met this person, he wouldn’t be certain.
So he accepted Xiao Tu’s request to bring them to meet the president of this branch.
Xiao Tu quickly led them back to the Hunters Organization that they had come from this morning and instead of going to the basement like before, she brought them to an elevator that brought them to the top floor.
Once they reached the top floor, they were brought to an office that was quite big. It was so big that it almost took up the entire top floor of the building, with only a little space left for a reception area.
There wasn’t a receptionist at the reception area, so they had been allowed in right away.
The strange thing was how familiar Xiao Tu was with this place. She had opened the led and led them into the office without any hesitation, almost as if she had been here many times before.
The office wasn’t that luxuriously decorated and it was more focused on utility rather than luxury.
Sitting at the desk in the middle of the office was a middle aged man who was clearly the president of this branch.
After they came in, Xiao Tu didn’t hesitate at all as she ran to the other side of the desk and to the side of the middle aged man. When she stood there beside him, she looked up with a smile and said, “Papa, I’m home.”
The middle aged man immediately revealed a smile as he looked at Xiao Tu and he said, “Did you have fun today?”
Xiao Tu gave a strong nod and turned to look at Lin Fan’s group as she said with a wide smile, “I had a lot of fun with big brother and the big sisters today.”
When Lin Fan’s group saw this, their hearts melted.
After all, she was just too cute with the way she smiled.
The middle aged man was the same as he looked at her, but eventually he turned to look at Lin Fan’s group with a serious look and said, “Thank you for taking care of Xiao Tu today.”
Lin Fan gave a nod before saying, “Well, that’s not a problem.” Then after a pause, he said, “The problem is with how you were using us.”
