BXBX NOVEL Chapter 103 Leaving The Dungeon
The young man felt a chill run down his spine when he heard this.
It was like facing the gates of hell, just a single wrong move would mean losing his life.
As a sheltered young master, he had never felt this feeling before, so he naturally had no defenses against this.
But when he thought of who he would be betraying, he started to hesitate.
Young master Qian was the worst one out of all of them. If he ever found out that he had betrayed him, the consequences would be…
So after a moment of hesitating, he said, "I don\'t know what you\'re talking about. We just found this…AH!"
There was a splash of blood as a small thing flew through the air, creating an arc before landing on the ground a few feet away.
It was a severed finger.
Without any hesitation, as soon as he heard this lie, Lin Fan had flicked his wrist and cut off his finger in one swift motion.
The young man bent over and held his bleeding hand as he screamed out in pain.
However, Lin Fan already felt no compassion for this young man. After what he had done to Tian Tian, he had already condemned them to death.
Lin Fan said in the same cold voice, "Who sent you?"
The young man might have been in pain, but he couldn\'t stop the overwhelming fear from filling him as well.
This voice made it very clear that he wasn\'t planning on negotiating with him at all. It was clear that he would continue cutting off fingers until he heard what he wanted to hear.
This kind of firm resolution was not one that this pampered young master was used to dealing with, so when facing it, he immediately crumbled.
The young man asked in a hesitant voice, "If I tell you, will you let me go?"
Lin Fan revealed a smile and said, "Yes."
He didn\'t want to waste any time with this person, so he agreed without any hesitation.
The young man felt that there was something wrong with how easily Lin Fan agreed, but since he did agree, he would take this chance and trust Lin Fan.
The young man still hesitated a bit, but in the end, he said, "It was young master Qian. He wanted us to take care of you because of what happened with his little brother\'s marriage."
Lin Fan knitted his brows when he heard this.
The reason why he had even come to this place was because the Mercenary Guild had told him that they would take care of the Qian Family problem if he came here. But now, there were two people sent by young master Qian who were attacking him…
What did that mean?
Did the Mercenary Guild lie to him?
Or was it something else?
No, if the Mercenary Guild were to lie to him, then why would they have sent Tian Tian along and why would she have dived in front of the attack for him?
This either meant that it was something with the Qian Family or some internal problem with the Mercenary Guild…
He would have to deal with this when he got back.
Seeing that Lin Fan was lost in thought, the young man asked, "Now that I\'ve told you, can I go?"
Lin Fan just waved his hand at the young man which immediately filled his eyes with hope.
But when he turned around to leave, he felt something stabbing into his chest.
When he looked down, he found that there was a spear of water that was embedded in his chest, creating a large hole there. He turned back to look at Lin Fan and saw that it was the small dragon that he summoned that had shot this spear of water into his chest.
With his last bit of energy, he said, "You said that you would let me go…"
Lin Fan said with a cold smile, "I did say that I would let you go and I did let you go, but…I never said that anyone else would let you go."
The young man fell back with a look of regret in his eyes, but there was no pill for regret in this world.
As for the other young man, Lin Fan didn\'t hesitate at all to cut off his head while he was unconscious. He didn\'t suffer at all as he disappeared from this world, he wasn\'t even aware of his disappearance.
After taking care of those two and searching through them for their belongings, Lin Fan turned his attention back to the dungeon core.
The dungeon core had been silent the entire time, hoping to find a way to escape, but there was no escape in that intense battle. So the only thing that it could do was wait for the battle to end and see who it could side with.
Seeing that it was Lin Fan who won in the end, it started showering praise on Lin Fan, "As expected of the young master. Not only one you handsome, you are truly powerful! There is no one in this world who can match you!"
Lin Fan ignored the dungeon core\'s praise and walked over to it.
When the dungeon core saw Lin Fan standing in front of it, it couldn\'t help swallowing its words before saying, "Is there anything I can help you with?"
Lin Fan didn\'t answer as he looked at the notification in front of him and then he thought, "Yes."
There was a flash of white light that appeared around the blue core before quickly disappearing as well.
Lin Fan had just answered the prompt asking if he wanted to tame the dungeon core or not.
There had been notifications of affection increasing while he had been fighting the young man. It had been affection increasing just like with Hayase, the affection came because of fear.
So after he finished the fight, there was a notification that asked him if he wanted to tame the dungeon core that appeared.
Since he could tame it, then there was no reason for him not to tame it.
After the flash of light, the dungeon core fell silent as it felt something different from Lin Fan. It was almost as there was some kind of special connection between the two of them that had just suddenly formed.
Lin Fan reached his hand out towards the dungeon core and it could no longer stay quiet as it asked, "Young master, what are you doing?"
Lin Fan just casually replied, "I\'m taking you with me."
"Eh?!" That was the dungeon core\'s first reaction to Lin Fan\'s words.
Its second reaction was to say, "But that\'s not possible. I\'m linked to this dungeon, so it\'s not as if I can leave as I want."
Lin Fan grabbed it and said, "Just watch."
The dungeon core had wanted to say something, but Lin Fan had already lifted it off the pedestal and thrown it into the Pet Storage Space.
During this process, the dungeon core had never said a single word because there was a shocking notification that had popped up on its system interface.
After he put the dungeon core away, Lin Fan lifted Tian Tian up and headed out of the hidden room.
When he came out, the group outside was surprised to see him carrying Tian Tian. Then when they saw that she was unconscious, they immediately raised their guard.
After all, when it comes to exploring ruins like this, this would normally be the best time to betray someone…
Huo Duo took the lead and asked, "What happened?"
Lin Fan could naturally tell what they were thinking, but he was too lazy to explain as he said, "The ones who did this are all dead. We\'re leaving."
Then there was a thought that popped into his mind as he asked, "Did none of you see anyone going past you?"
Huo Duo and the others were all surprised to hear this question, but they said, "No, we didn\'t see anything."
Lin Fan just gave a nod in response before heading over to the transport array in the center of the arena.
The rest of his group slowly followed him, but it was clear by how they acted that they still didn\'t fully trust him yet.
Lin Fan didn\'t care as he pointed at the transport array and said, "That will take us out. Let\'s go."
Without even waiting for a response from the group, Lin Fan carried Tian Tian into the transport array.
Then with a bright flash, Lin Fan disappeared from their sight.
When the light cleared from Lin Fan\'s vision, he found that he had been sent outside of the cave, appearing right at the entrance.
He quickly moved out of the way and not long after, the rest of his group appeared.
It wasn\'t as if they could just stay there, so they had no choice but to follow Lin Fan. But when they saw that they were back outside, they couldn\'t help letting out a sigh of relief.
Once they were all out, Lin Fan was about to head to the carriage they left when Tian Tian stirred in his arms.
The first thing that she did when she woke up was look down at her own chest, but she found that there was no longer a hole there.
She looked around before finding that she was in Lin Fan\'s arms. She looked up at Lin Fan with a shocked look and asked, "What happened? Why am I still alive?"
