"It's okay, we'll see each other again soon!"
Zhang Fan comforted her, planting a kiss on Huo Wu's beautiful cheek.
"Alright... but if I miss you, where should I find you?" Huo Wu asked, a little reluctant, pursing her lips.
"You can check out Blue Star Academy then!" Zhang Fan thought for a moment and replied.
"Okay then." Huo Wu nodded.
Soon after, they parted ways.
After leaving the room, Zhang Fan ran into Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er.
The two beauties walked over from the side.
"Zhang Fan, handsome guy!" Shui Yue'er greeted with a smile—lively and adorable.
Shui Bing'er, on the other hand, was much calmer and didn't say anything.
After all, their personalities were completely different.
"Hello to both of you!"
Zhang Fan was quite pleased to see the beautiful Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er. They were stunning, with curves in all the right places—and those fair, long legs under their skirts were incredibly alluring.
The two walked up to Zhang Fan.
"Hmm, I didn't expect you to still be in Spirit Hall City. When are you planning to leave?" Shui Yue'er looked into Zhang Fan's handsome face.
Shui Bing'er also glanced at his face, and the moment their eyes met, she quickly looked down, a little shy and unable to meet his gaze.
"I'll leave in two days. What about you two?" Zhang Fan asked.
"Us too! We'll go back together then!" Shui Yue'er hadn't expected that either.
"Sure!" Zhang Fan nodded.
"These are gifts from me and my sister!" Shui Yue'er handed him two handkerchiefs. "Each one is embroidered with our respective martial souls. We sewed them ourselves, stitch by stitch!"
"Wow... they're beautiful! You two are really talented with your hands!" Zhang Fan took the handkerchiefs and admired them. The embroidery was genuinely exquisite. "Thank you, these are the most special gifts I've received!"
"Thanks! I'm glad you like them!" Shui Bing'er was delighted to hear the praise—her hard work hadn't gone to waste.
"You're quite the charmer! Hearing that made me really happy!" Shui Yue'er was also pleased with his words.
"You've given me gifts, so I should give something in return!" Zhang Fan thought for a moment. He didn't have any suitable gifts on hand...
So he willed it and changed "1" bottle of Soul Gathering Pills to "10" bottles.
That way, he could give gifts to these beauties.
Give and take—mutual respect.
Naturally, he'd gift them a bottle of Soul Gathering Pills each, which would help raise their soul power levels and earn their gratitude.
"Ding, modification successful. Reward: 20 Modification Points."
Immediately, one bottle of Soul Gathering Pills in Zhang Fan's storage became ten bottles.
He took out two bottles, handing one to Shui Bing'er and one to Shui Yue'er.
"What's this?" Shui Yue'er asked curiously.
"Soul Gathering Pills. Each bottle has ten pills. Taking them can quickly boost your soul power!" Zhang Fan explained. "With one bottle, you two should each be able to gain three to four levels!"
"That good?" Shui Bing'er was stunned.
Shui Yue'er was equally surprised. "Thank you, Big Handsome Zhang! I can't believe you're so generous—this kind of precious pill is way more valuable than our little handkerchiefs!"
"Haha, but your embroidery was heartfelt. Of course it's just as valuable!" Zhang Fan responded. "Take them!"
"Alright! Thank you! You're the best!" Shui Yue'er beamed as she accepted the pills, her eyes glowing as they locked onto Zhang Fan.
Shui Bing'er saw her sister take it, so she accepted her bottle as well.
After all, she'd never even heard of such a valuable pill before.
It was simply magical.
She opened the bottle and a fragrant medicinal scent filled the air. That unique smell captivated her.
It was the most delightful scent she had ever encountered.
She was momentarily dazed, like a country girl entering the big city for the first time.
The wonders of the world felt overwhelming.
Shui Yue'er mirrored her expression, though hers was more exaggerated. "Ah... this smells amazing! Just one whiff and I feel like I'm ascending!"
"..." Zhang Fan was speechless for a few seconds after hearing that. This girl was something else.
They both carefully stored away their treasures.
"Since we've run into each other, how about I take you two for a stroll around Spirit Hall City?" Zhang Fan offered.
"Yes, please! I've never walked around with Big Handsome Zhang before!" Shui Yue'er was thrilled.
"Alright!" Shui Bing'er nodded, also visibly excited.
"Then come with me, my two lovely wives!" Zhang Fan suddenly dropped the "wives" bomb.
The two beauties were momentarily stunned, their faces blushing.
"No response? That means you agree!" Zhang Fan shrugged, grinning as he looked at their pretty, red faces.
"You really know how to flirt!" Shui Yue'er blushed even more, her heart racing—she liked Zhang Fan, and hearing him call her his wife made her heart skip like a deer on ice.
"..." Shui Bing'er was equally shy, though her reaction wasn't as expressive.
They had very different personalities, after all.
Even though they looked alike.
"Eh... who's that? Why does that person have two huge panda eyes? They look kinda familiar... like Yu XiaoGang? Wait, a female version of Yu XiaoGang?" Shui Yue'er suddenly asked, thinking aloud.
"Haha... you're spot on! That is the female version of Yu XiaoGang! She tried to seduce me last night, so I gave her panda eyes and kicked her flying!" Zhang Fan said confidently.
"Wow... Big Handsome Zhang is totally unstoppable—such incredible charm!" Shui Yue'er was even more infatuated with Zhang Fan now.
After all, with so many women fighting over him, his allure was clearly on another level.
"Truly handsome!" Shui Bing'er said honestly. She didn't overthink it like her sister.
Women are drawn to strength—if you provide enough emotional value, they'll follow you to the ends of the earth.
And Zhang Fan calling them "wives" had already made their hearts race, precisely because they liked him. It meant he could keep teasing them like that.
Yu XiaoGang, seeing Zhang Fan strolling with two beauties, glanced in a mirror and saw his own face—then looked at the two women.
He felt ashamed of himself.
Maybe he had been too narcissistic.
Better to stay low-key from now on.
Yu XiaoGang was helpless, heartbroken, and embarrassed.
He lowered his head, not daring to look at Zhang Fan.
"Ding, plot modification task triggered."
[Yu XiaoGang pretends not to know Zhang Fan and walks by quietly.] – Five characters may be modified.
Zhang Fan immediately changed "walks by quietly" to "kneels and begs for acknowledgment."
"Ding, plot modification successful. Slight storyline deviation. Reward: 60 Modification Points."
