After My Favorability Level Is Up to the Top

Chapter 85 - I'm Not Going!

There was some noise around.

Some of the young men were quietly murmuring, “Why do you have to be so dominating, blocking the entire city gate like this? We've been waiting for quite a while, and now you're forming this extensive queue. Is it necessary to shoo people away?”

At this moment, someone would step forward to elucidate the nature of the Profound Yin Family. Why was there such a lengthy line of people? They could simply arrange carriages for direct entry into the city.

Alternatively, they might be awestruck by the beauty of the carriage driver, who was also in the Nascent Soul Stage.

There were also individuals engaged in conversations about the two types of Strange Beasts pulling the carriage and the rarity and value of the carriage's embellishments. Even the wooden incense within the carriage could be dissected and categorized as first, second, or third rate.

Hold on a moment, hold on.

After all, while he wasn't here to flaunt, boasting about others was still noteworthy.

However, when the carriage's owner began to speak, everyone fell silent.

A gathering of onlookers sought to discover the purpose of the Profound Yin Family's presence in Night's Fall Sword City.

In the Upper Central Realm, the term “family” held an entirely distinct meaning compared to a sect. A sect emphasized capability, whereas a family revered bloodlines.

Due to the establishment of a family, certain unique cultivation physiques could be passed down through generations.

The most renowned among them were the three prestigious aristocratic families: the Profound Yin Family, the Fishtree Family, and the Wintersmith Family.

Xuan Yin, Wugou, and Huaxu embodied different physiques, each with its own distinctive traits.

The most unusual aspect of the Profound Yin Family was that it exclusively comprised females.

Profound Yin and Profound Yin, as their names implied, represented the utmost essence of Yin Qi.

A Profound Yin Physique could only manifest in females, completely devoid of any Yang Qi within their bodies. Consequently, despite their rapid progress in mastering the Yin Attribute, their physical constitution remained fragile.

The reason for their exclusive female membership lay in the possession of a Profound Yang Bead at birth. Upon reaching the appropriate age and refining this bead, they could mimic the fusion of Yin and Yang, thereby invoking the laws of reincarnation and enabling pregnancy.

The result was always the birth of another Profound Yin Physique, inevitably accompanied by a Profound Yang Bead.

This process resembled pregnancy but perpetually continued.

Occasionally, the Profound Yin Family admitted foreign delegates, albeit exclusively women, firmly rejecting all male candidates.

While one might expect such a rare physique to attract the covetous desires of numerous Immortal cultivators, the talent of the Profound Yin Physique in the realm of cultivation was truly staggering. Practically all of them reached the God Forming Stage within a century.

Nonetheless, due to their unique constitution, their cultivation did not extend their lifespan, and they invariably withered away before long.

The Middle Continent's three dominant families wielded immense power, making them beyond the reach of ordinary cultivators and sects. Yet, smaller clans were a different story, many of which fell victim to sects or individuals who plundered their bloodlines for cultivation or to grant their descendants a head start.

Despite this, the three major families rarely made public appearances, and their involvement in events such as the Tide-watching Sword-listening Conference was unheard of.

...No, why should he be relieved?

He realized that she might have come to apprehend him and use him as some kind of tool.

“Something doesn't seem right. How did she end up here? Could it be that I'm under some invisible BUFF again?”

After pondering for a moment, Guo Fan reopened the illustrated handbook and inspected Xun Yimu's skill status, discovering a problem with its usage.

[Divine Plate Ghost Divination]

“...”

Guo Fan silently closed the interface and leaned back.

How could he possibly forget that he was in a Xianxia world? There existed another skill known as Divination.

Initially, his abilities in the game were limited to calculating the coordinates of opponents or instantly revealing their next skill choice. It seemed rather insignificant, but since his transmigration, he had no intention of dismissing its significance.

“I sincerely hope no more individuals arrive. During my initial journey to the Middle Continent, there were several unavoidable encounters. Another visit would undoubtedly label me as a major fugitive.”

Guo Fan silently offered his prayers and tactfully retreated to a secluded corner, pulling Gu Chao along with him, finally enabling their departure.

He just turned around.

“Everyone, please stay here for the time being.”

Stepping down from the carriage, Xuegang addressed the group with a cheerful demeanor, “My young master acknowledges the disruption she unintentionally caused due to her hasty arrival today, which led to some inconvenience and discontent among you all. In remorse, she has tasked me to present each of you with 50 Soul jewels as compensation... Please step forward to claim your reward.”

A moment of bewilderment spread among the crowd, followed by exchanged glances. They subsequently conveyed their gratitude and praised the grace of the aristocracy. With enthusiasm, they approached to receive their Soul jewels, demonstrating even more orderliness and excitement than when they had queued up to enter the city.

Guo Fan “...”

This must have been done on purpose, right? Hey!

Xun Yimu must have predicted that he was nearby!

However, the dream bubble obscured her aura-sensing abilities, preventing her from pinpointing his location. As a result, she allowed the people around her to move ahead.

While Guo Fan was eager to depart, the allure of these freely offered Soul jewels was undeniable!

Departing at this juncture was even more enticing...

Guo Fan could almost envision the young lady inside the carriage covering her mouth and emitting a light, amused laugh. Goosebumps formed on his skin as he observed the people around him proceeding one by one.

“Master...”

Gu Chao looked up and hesitated. “Should we go?”

Guo Fan bit the bullet and gritted his teeth. “We aren't going!”

He did the opposite. He pulled Gu Chao and pushed the crowd out.
