Accidentally invincible!-Chapter 100: Must Live Up to These Four Words

He never expected this girl in front of him to be so fierce.

The plans he had carefully crafted were now completely useless.

It was quite frustrating.

"Speak, who exactly are you?" The girl stared at Lin Fan vigilantly. She looked serious, but deep down, she was nervous. Maybe she hadn’t anticipated someone suddenly appearing before her.

The world is dangerous—what if this person is a bad guy?

As soon as she thought about the possibility that the man might be a bad guy, her little heart began pounding wildly.

"Miss, don’t be afraid. I’m not a bad person." Lin Fan was racking his brain, trying to think of what to say next. It was so difficult; things had taken an unexpected turn, leaving him somewhat bewildered.

The girl snorted, "Only bad people say they’re not bad. Who exactly are you? If you don’t tell the truth, don’t blame me for being rude."

The girl was very bold at the moment.

She knew that if she showed any signs of weakness, the other party would surely take advantage of it. Hence, she pretended to be tough to intimidate Lin Fan.

Lin Fan’s mind was racing.

He needed to think of a solution—and fast.

When he glanced at the dead snake nearby, an idea suddenly sprang into his mind.

The girl seemed to see through his thoughts, "Don’t even tell me this snake was yours. I know what kind of snake this is, and it’s definitely not one that humans raise. If you’re planning to extort me, let me tell you, dream on."

"Hmmph," Lin Fan looked stunned at this seemingly cute and clueless girl. He hadn’t expected her to be this savvy.

Truth be told, he had genuinely planned to do just that.

For instance...

Xiao Qiang, Xiao Qiang, oh how tragic your death is...

Then glare at her with fury-filled eyes, roaring with anguish: It was a docile little snake, approaching you only because it wanted your affection. How could you be so cruel as to kill it?

In his mind, women were generally emotional and kind-hearted. If he said something like that, wouldn’t she feel utterly guilty?

But looking at the situation now, there was no chance of pulling off his plan.

The girl’s round eyes gleamed smugly as she gazed at Lin Fan, as if saying, "Well? I saw right through you, didn’t I? Look at you—speechless and unable to refute."

Hmph!

Extorting me? Do you really think I’m some naïve, sheltered girl?

Lin Fan said calmly, "Miss, you’ve misunderstood. I saw you resting beneath the tree, and the snake hanging there suddenly attacked you. Fearing you might get hurt, I came out to warn you."

"A mere wild beast, not even a Demon... How could I possibly be in danger? Even if there were ten—or a hundred—it wouldn’t matter," the girl said proudly, holding her head high like a graceful swan.

What else could Lin Fan say? At this point, he didn’t even want to utter another word. Normally, adorable girls were supposed to be scared of snakes and rats, weren’t they? But this one? Not only was she unafraid, she killed the snake herself.

Was he really going to fail like this?

No way—he couldn’t let it end here. Opportunities were rare, and missing this one meant he didn’t know when the next would come.

Suddenly.

Lin Fan had an idea.

"You’re right, someone as skilled as you wouldn’t be affected by a mere snake. However, one mustn’t waste good ingredients."

He picked up the slain snake. Under the girl’s puzzled gaze, Lin Fan began building a fire, cutting the snake into segments, skewering the pieces, and roasting them over the flames.

"What are you doing?"

The girl asked curiously, secretly wondering about this man—she had initially planned to leave, but her strong curiosity made her stay to see what he was up to.

Lin Fan smiled calmly, "The day is drawing to a close, and I’m a bit hungry. I thought I’d make something delicious."

"Don’t you have Fasting Pills?" the girl asked.

"Fasting Pills? Those are expensive elixirs. Do I look like someone who could afford such luxuries?" Lin Fan exaggerated with dramatic flair, carefully slowing things down to guide her step by step—he couldn’t rush it.

Poof!

The girl couldn’t help but burst out laughing. Then she covered her mouth, feeling slightly embarrassed about laughing too much, "Fasting Pills aren’t what you call expensive elixirs. In our sect, every disciple has them, and we use them to replace daily meals. You mean you’re not even part of a sect?"

"No, I’m not. When I was little, my family saved a senior cultivator passing through. Before leaving, he bestowed upon me a method to practice Immortal Law. I’ve spent over a decade diligently cultivating it. I finally succeeded and walked all the way here from the Mortal World—years and years of traveling—just hoping to join an Immortal Sect and pursue proper training."

"So, as for Fasting Pills—you’re right, they’re quite foreign to me. I’ve only heard of them but have never seen them myself."

Lin Fan never blushed when lying, and his story sounded completely believable.

The girl stared at him in shock, "You actually traveled all the way here from the Mortal World alone—and survived? That’s amazing."

Suddenly.

A rich aroma wafted through the air.

"What smells so good?" The girl sniffed the air curiously, then lowered her head to look—and realized that the snake meat roasting over the fire was already cooked.

Golden and crispy on the outside, tender on the inside.

Especially since Lin Fan had carried some seasonings from the Nine Heavens Immortal Sect upon leaving. With a unique sprinkling technique, the snake meat’s fragrance became even more tantalizing.

"I made it—it tastes great." Lin Fan grabbed a skewer and began enjoying it, then offered one to the girl, "Here, try one. It’s delicious—I promise you won’t regret it."

"I don’t eat it," the girl refused instantly. "Cultivators don’t consume grains or mundane food. A single Fasting Pill is enough to go for days without eating. When we reach higher realms, we won’t even need those."

Her tone was firm.

Time passed.

The sound of chewing echoed.

"So tasty—it’s too good! Who would’ve thought snake meat could be so delicious? I didn’t know you had such incredible culinary skills," the girl exclaimed blissfully, her cheeks glowing pink, lightly flushed with joy.

"I told you—it’s absolutely delicious," Lin Fan remarked, feeling very pleased as he watched the girl enjoying the meal. The famous "True Fragrance Principle" was truly a universal law of power—no one could defy it.

"Mhm!" The girl nodded. "Now I believe you’re not a bad person. But I have to say, you’re really impressive—I rarely hear stories of someone making it from the Mortal World to this place."

"I’m Xi Xi, an Inner Sect Disciple of the Taiwu Immortal Sect. Speaking of which, I still don’t know your name."

Xi Xi let down her guard against Lin Fan, no longer thinking of him as a bad person.

The combination of good food and pleasant company had exposed her true nature completely.

She proved to be quite easy to win over.

Indeed.

To capture a woman’s heart, forget about grand gestures—just have exceptional culinary skills and conquer her stomach. That’s all you need.

"Lin Fan—double wood Lin, ordinary Fan. I’m just an ordinary person, pursuing the Immortal Path with a slight bit of good looks."

"But with my current situation, which sect would ever take me in?"

Lin Fan gently lowered the skewer in his hand, gazing up at the sky and letting a single tear fall from the corner of his eye in sorrow.

Xi Xi saw the tear and was touched.

She started to ponder—this man had such talent for cooking. If her senior sister accepted him, it wouldn’t be bad at all.

After all, it would be a shame to waste such excellent skills.

"Don’t worry! I can recommend you to my senior sister. She’s a True Disciple of the sect, and she can take you in as a Taiwu Immortal Sect disciple."

Xi Xi spoke with her mouth full, sounding muffled but still coherent.

Lin Fan’s heart brightened instantly, but he feigned hesitation, saying, "Wouldn’t that put your senior sister in a difficult position? I know that those who help others are often beautiful as Heavenly Immortals, kind-hearted, and eager to assist. But I don’t want to trouble anyone too much."

Xi Xi mulled over his words.

Enough—if she didn’t help him, it would be unworthy of the phrase "beautiful as Heavenly Immortals."
