Chapter 140 Love Technique (1)
Lin Fan was surprised at first, but then he said, "Oh, are we one of those hidden wandering sects that only check in at certain locations? Then where should we go to get all these things?"
The bitter smile on Mu Bao Bao's face became even wider when she heard this.
After another long silence, she said, "There's no such thing. In fact, our sect doesn't have any territory at all."
The bad premonition that Lin Fan had earlier became even stronger when he heard this…
After a while, he finally asked, "Master, how many people are in our sect including us?"
"Two." Mu Bao Bao honestly said.
Lin Fan's expression fell as he asked, "Then you're saying that it's just…"
He left his words hanging, but Mu Bao Bao clearly knew what he was implying. She gave a nod and said, "Just you and me."
There were three black lines that appeared on Lin Fan's face when he heard this. After taking a moment to gather his thoughts, he asked, "What happened?"
Mu Bao Bao still had an awkward look on her face as she said with a sigh, "It's a common story, our sect was destroyed by our enemies. Since we're a neutral sect, there aren't many that are willing to associate with us in the Righteous or Demonic Factions, so when we were attacked by our enemies, they destroyed our sect. I was lucky enough to escape with the help of my master…"
There were tears that appeared in Mu Bao Bao's eyes when she said this and Lin Fan's heart ached. So he raised his hand and said, "Master, it's alright, we'll rebuild the sect one day."
Mu Bao Bao excitedly looked up when she heard this and said, "Do you really mean it? Are you sure that you want to keep me as your master even though our sect has nothing?"
Lin Fan said with a nod, "Yes, master. A master is a master for life and since I have taken you as my master, you are my master."
Mu Bao Bao's chest filled with excitement and joy as she jumped forward to hug Lin Fan.
Lin Fan was stunned when he felt the soft feeling that came from his chest.
He couldn't help looking down and since Mu Bao Bao was wearing a rather loose fitting dress, he was able peek down to see the valley hidden deep within.
Speaking of Mu Bao Bao's figure, it wasn't as if she had a large chest like Yue Lan, but she definitely didn't have a small chest. It was just perfect, the right size that would perfectly fit in one's hand.
So the feeling that Lin Fan felt pressing against his chest when she hugged him was absolutely divine.
When she left his embrace, he even had a bit of an unwilling look on his face.
As for Mu Bao Bao, she just had an excited and happy look on her face, as if she didn't mind what happened at all just now.
After taking a moment to calm his brain and another part of him, Lin Fan gave a cough and asked, "Master, who are the enemies that destroyed the sect?"
Mu Bao Bao's excited and happy expression froze before she shook her head and said with a sad look, "I don't know. They were cloaked figures that had charged into our sect, but they all had extraordinary cultivations. They were far stronger than the sect master and the elders, so they were able to easily destroy our sect…"
Lin Fan nodded before saying, "Then is there anything left of our sect at all?"
Mu Bao Bao hesitated a bit before taking out a Storage Ring and saying, "This is all that's left of our sect, all of the inheritances that could be taken out were given to me by my master, the sect master."
Lin Fan was surprised that she would take this out to show him that easily. He even thought that she was a bit naive…
After all, there was always that chance that he was lying. This world wasn't a kind world and there were all kinds of people, but she was trusting him that easily.
Still, the fact that she did trust him gave him a warm feeling in his heart.
As for the Storage Ring, it would be a lie to say that this wasn't his real goal to begin with.
He already knew the dangers of taking Mu Bao Bao as his master and that was why he had decided to still acknowledge her as his master. After all, it was impossible that he would accept her as his master just because of his emotions. He was no longer as naive as he was when he first arrived in this realm.
The main consideration that he had was that since the sect was destroyed and there was only this Mu Bao Bao left, it would be equal to gaining a powerful bodyguard. After all, he could tell from her story that while she wanted to get revenge, it seemed very unlikely since she didn't know who to get revenge on and didn't have the power to do so.
She also stated that her goal was to rebuild the Love Sect, so she would naturally need help from that.
Based on the fact that she couldn't even feed herself, it was unlikely that she had any resources that she could use to rebuild the sect. That was also why she had asked him if he had money and if he had a large residence, she most likely wanted to leech off him to rebuild the sect.
Though the thought of a powerful and unknown enemy was scary, the benefits that he gained from doing all of this far outweighed this.
Then there was the fact that this Love Sect was a neutral sect, which meant that as long as they stayed out of the way, there wouldn't be anyone who would bother them. This would be a sect that would have its freedom since it stayed out of the way of conflict, which was the best thing for Lin Fan.
He just wanted a free life out of the way of conflict and a sect like this was the best for him.
Then there was also the Storage Ring full of resources from a sect. It was the last remnants of the sect, the treasures that they gathered to pass on to the next generation. There was no doubt that there were important and powerful things in there just waiting for him to take.
Of course, he would have to win Mu Bao Bao over to get her to share these resources with him, but he was confident since he had his Love Gauge Taming skill.
He found that while taming people didn't make them obey his orders, they did become much more receptive to their requests. Even if there were some things that they didn't follow because of their own convictions, there were many things that he could convince them of with ease.
Lin Fan had already seen Mu Bao Bao's affection rise when he had been talking to her earlier, so he was certain that he would be able to tame her eventually. In fact, through their conversation just now, her affection was already at 40 and it just needed a little bump before he could tame her.
With all these thoughts in mind, Lin Fan then asked, "Master, do you think that there are any other members of our sect that escaped that day?"
Mu Bao Bao knitted her brows when hearing this before shaking her head, "I'm not sure. I was focused on running and didn't see anyone else. Later, when I went back looking for traces of people that escaped, I couldn't find a single thing, so I'm not sure if anyone did escape or not."
Then after a sigh, she said with a bitter smile, "But even if they did escape, I doubt that they would want to stay with our sect after what happened…After all, the enemies of our sect are just that terrifying."
She looked at Lin Fan with a worried look and asked, "Are you sure that you want me as your master?"
She didn't know when it happened, but she started worrying about Lin Fan. Even going as far as asking him if he wanted to stay in the sect because she was worried that he would regret this decision one day.
Lin Fan gave a nod and said, "You are my master, that is all I need."
Mu Bao Bao felt a warm feeling filling her heart as tears of joy came to her eyes.
Lin Fan didn't know why, but he suddenly reached out his hand to pat her on the head when he saw this. It was like the feeling that a parent would have when they saw a sad child…
Mu Bao Bao didn't shy away from this and even revealed a happy smile when she felt his hand on her head.
[Mu Bao Bao has been moved by your words and actions. Affection has increased by 10.]
[Target for taming has been detected. Does the host wish to tame Mu Bao Bao?]
Lin Fan couldn't help secretly revealing a smile when he saw this before saying in his heart, "Yes."
There was the same light that appeared around Mu Bao Bao that disappeared just as quickly before Mu Bao Bao appeared in his list of tamed pets.
Lin Fan was secretly filled with joy that this worked before he turned to Mu Bao Bao to ask, "Master, are there any cultivation techniques or martial techniques that are passed down in our sect?"
