East City, Lin Mansion.
"elder brother!"
As soon as Lin Fan woke up from his coma, Lin Yao's delicate body fell into his arms.
The little girl sobbed and her tears immediately wet Lin Fan's clothes.
"Don't worry, I'm fine..."
Lin Fan comforted her softly and gently stroked Lin Yao's little head.
He could feel that there was medicine wrapped around his head.
The cool feeling slightly reduced the pain in the eyes.
Having his sister in his arms also made him feel inexplicably at ease.
Even the obstacle of being unable to see was melted by this family love.
Can't see?
Um?
But in his sea of consciousness, he could clearly sense everything around him. The table, chairs, and his sister's figure were all vivid in his mind, but... they were all in black and white, without any color.
This is what the mysterious woman who taught her the supreme sword art said... The heart and sword replace the eyes, and the sword heart is clear?
As if not wanting Lin Fan to feel bad, Lin Yao quickly wiped away her tears and got up from his arms.
"Brother, you've been in a coma for three days and three nights. I, I'm really worried that you won't wake up."
Lin Yao spoke with concern.
Lin Fan frowned slightly. "I've been unconscious for three days? So... nothing happened at home, right?"
His parents died young, and young Lin Fan had to support the entire Lin family alone since he was a child.
He also has a deep understanding of the ways of the world.
There are few people who help others when they are in trouble, but there are many who take advantage of others' misfortunes.
He became blind and offended the Hong family, the largest family in the Eastern Region, and the Qingyun Sect, an immortal sect.
When the Lin family was thriving, those old foxes in Luofeng City were all submissive. But now that they are in trouble, these guys will definitely pounce on them and bite them without hesitation.
It is hard to imagine how the young sister Lin Yao managed to survive these three days alone.
"It's... it's okay, nothing else happened at home..."
Lin Yao's voice was obviously a little flustered.
Lin Fan held Lin Yao's cold hand tightly: "Believe me, brother. I will protect the Lin family and you as before!"
The words, as gentle yet powerful as ever, instantly brought Lin Yao to tears again.
"Brother! Master Zhou is such a piece of shit. As soon as you were injured, he brought Zhou Xuanyi to your house, saying he had an order from the Embroidered Uniform Guard to deprive you of your centurion title..."
Smiling tiger Zhou Zang?
Lin Fan's expression was icy: "Are they in the Lin Residence now?"
Lin Yao nodded vigorously, and then she remembered that her brother's eyes would never be able to see again. She couldn't help but feel sad and burst into tears again.
My brother, who was once as brilliant as a dragon in the sky, lost his eyes because of me.
There is still a long way to go. How can my brother endure this endless darkness?
"Follow me!"
Lin Fan took Lin Yao's hand, got out of bed quickly, and walked towards the door.
"elder brother?"
Lin Yao was stunned.
My brother's movements were agile and his manners were calm, without any hindrance at all.
If it weren't for the black cloth covering his forehead, he wouldn't look like a blind man at all.
Lin Yao followed Lin Fan in a daze, being pulled forward by him.
It took him a while to come to his senses, and he exclaimed, "Brother, you... can still see?"
Lin Fan smiled and nodded: "Brother's eyes may be blind, but his heart is not blind... Believe in me, brother, I am still the same Lin Fan as before!"
"Um!"
Lin Yao covered her mouth tightly, but still couldn't help but let her tears flow down.
Very good.
Even though he lost his eyes, my brother can still live like a normal person.
It's simply the best news.
"Yao'er, don't worry. One day, I will take back my eyes with my own hands."
"Well, I believe in you, brother. I will always believe in you."
Two figures, one big and one small, walked quickly towards the main hall of the Lin Mansion, hand in hand.
In the lobby.
Smiling Buddha Zhou Zang sat on the main seat with a big smile.
The person standing next to him was Zhou Xuanyi.
Seeing Lin Fan, with his eyes covered by a black cloth, walking in with Lin Yao, the father and son were both startled.
The next moment, Zhou Zang smiled and said, "Everyone says that Nephew Lin's eyes were gouged out by Niece Hong. Now it seems to be true."
He was testing whether Lin Fan was really blind.
Lin Fan ignored Zhou Zang and faced Zhou Xuanyi directly, saying coldly, "You, want to take my position as a centurion?"
Zhou Xuanyi doesn't have the same patience as Zhou Zang.
Hearing this, he couldn't help but sneer: "Lin Fan, you have disobeyed the Immortal Sect and wantonly killed people. Your crimes are unforgivable. Do you still want to be a captain of the Embroidered Uniform Guard?"
clang!
The sound of swords rang out.
The moment Zhou Xuan finished speaking, Lin Fan's figure suddenly disappeared, and he appeared beside Zhou Xuan in a flash, his palm tightly grasping the other's neck.
"you!"
Zhou Xuanyi never expected that he would be ambushed and subdued by a blind man, and he couldn't help but feel furious.
Zhou Zang, who was standing next to him, suddenly had his pupils shrink.
Although my son has only tempered his body four times, he is a genuine warrior at the Bone Tempering Realm.
Even if Lin Fan hadn't been in trouble, he would still not be his match.
Now, how could he be subdued so easily?
"Why do you want my position as a centurion?"
Lin Fan's voice was as cold as a sword.
After experiencing Hong Qingcheng's betrayal and gouging out his own eyes, Lin Fan actually no longer cared about the mere position of a centurion.
But the same thing.
You don't have to keep it, but others can't take it away from you.
"You're looking for death."
Zhou Xuanyi's bones all made noises, a faint light flickered on his arms, and he subconsciously wanted to fight back.
clang!
The sound of swords rang out again.
The surging sword intent crushed Zhou Xuanyi's counterattack like a rotten wood, and suppressed the burst of bone power.
Under the backlash of the power, Zhou Xuan spat out a mouthful of blood and his face turned as pale as paper.
"waste!"
Lin Fan flicked his hand and the other person was thrown out like garbage.
"Xuan Yi."
Smiling Buddha Zhou Zang could no longer control his composure and jumped up to catch Zhou Xuanyi.
"What a cruel method! You actually wasted three of my son's forging bones?"
After checking Zhou Xuanyi's injuries, there was no trace of a smile on Zhou Zang's chubby face anymore.
Lin Fan said calmly, "On the day of my wedding, Pavilion Master Zhou sent me a gift that ranked among the top three guests in the mansion. In consideration of that valuable gift, I will spare his life today."
"Good, good for you, Lin Fan!"
Zhou Zang was so angry that his hair stood on end.
In the past, the Lin family had the support of the Hong family, so not only did he not dare to attack Lin Fan, he also had to send him expensive gifts.
Now that Lin Fan has been abandoned by the Hong family and has offended the Qingyun Immortal Sect, how dare he still be so arrogant?
Do you really think that the Smiling Buddha cannot kill people?
boom.
The ground beneath Zhou Zang's feet exploded, and he leaped out, grabbing Lin Fan fiercely with his large hand like a palm-leaf fan.
On the arm, nine forged bones shone brightly.
A body-tempered warrior can only be considered an entry-level martial artist and is still in the stage of consolidating the basics.
The Bone Tempering Realm is when one has mastered the martial arts and is qualified to travel the world with a sword.
Zhou Zang's great stone-breaking skill has always been famous in Luofeng City. He has defeated warriors of the same level many times, and earned him the name "Smiling Buddha".
"Sword!"
Lin Fan stretched out his hand towards Lin Yao.
Lin Yao hurriedly handed the sword to Lin Fan.
Clang!
Amidst the dragon's roar, the long sword was unsheathed, and a cold light flashed.
A streak of blood suddenly appeared in the void.
Zhou Zang retreated explosively.
"You're not blind!"
If Lin Fan couldn't see, he would never be able to accurately hit the flaw in his Great Monument Breaking Hand.
Not to mention breaking his defense.
"Does it matter whether I'm blind or not? I, a blind man, am enough to deal with you."
Lin Fan felt a surge of heroic spirit as he defeated Zhou Zang, who was at the peak of the first level of Bone Tempering, with one sword strike.
The mysterious woman really didn't speak nonsense.
The art of the heart sword is indeed powerful.
He had only just entered the first level of the Heart Sword, the 'Bright Sword', but he could actually use his sword heart to reflect everything. Not only was he better than having eyes without eyes, he could also sense the flaws in the opponent's martial arts.
This made Lin Fan even more excited about the sword art of life and death taught by the mysterious woman.
"Arrogant boy! So what if you're not blind? Just a few body temperings, do you really think you can forge your bones?"
Zhou Zang put Zhou Xuanyi into the chair, took out two gold-wire gloves and slowly put them on.
This is made of Xuan-grade Tiancan silk, which is difficult to be damaged by swords and knives. It should be enough to deal with a junior like Lin Fan.
Just as the two men were about to fight, a series of footsteps were heard from outside.
Figures filed in one after another and broke into the main hall of the Lin Mansion.
The leader was none other than Xu Bashan, a captain of the Embroidered Uniform Guard stationed in Luofeng City.
