Once the bandits had all been subdued, the leader of the caravan immediately came forward to thank Lin Fan for saving them.

"This young master, thank you for your grace in saving us!" The leader of the caravan practically threw himself at Lin Fan when he said this.

However, Lin Fan took a step back when faced with this enthusiastic leader of the caravan, moving out of his way to avoid being caught by him. Then he said with a smile, "It was nothing. We were just passing along when we heard the sounds of fighting."

The leader of the caravan kept throwing more and more praise onto Lin Fan, but then he suddenly became silent.

Lin Fan naturally knew why he had become silent. When it came to situations like this, after being saved, they were usually expected to pay the people who had saved them, or at the very least give them some kind of compensation.

However, the problem was that the bandits had ruined quite a bit of this caravan's cargo, so..It was even a problem for the merchant to make up the cost of this cargo, let alone earning a profit. If he were to also pay Lin Fan for rescuing them..

Lin Fan was about to say something, but before he could, the two cloaked figures that had been hiding in the carriage came out.

The older sister came right up to Lin Fan and asked, "This young master, is it alright if we talk in private?"

Lin Fan was surprised when he heard this voice.

This voice..it was like a gentle breeze that softly blew across a meadow..It was like the soft flap of a butterfly's wing..It was like a soft and sweet kiss to the ear..

In short, it was a beautiful voice that made people immediately relax the moment that they heard it.

However, it wasn't the voice that had surprised him. Rather, it was the person that this voice was coming from.

Lin Fan could feel a strange aura coming from these two cloaked figures.

But the even stranger thing was that before they had made themselves known, he hadn't been able to sense this aura at all. It was as if only because they had made themselves known that he was able to sense their aura.

These two cloaked figures definitely weren't normal people..

So while it could be understood why they didn't help the caravan, why did they want to talk to him?

Could it be that they had some kind of grudge with him?

Lin Fan thought about it and decided that it was better to face them head on instead of having them sneak up on him later. After all, he wasn't able to detect them, so if they snuck on him, that would be the end of it.

So after thinking about all of this, Lin Fan gave a nod in response to this cloaked figure.

Without caring about the leader of the caravan, the two of them headed off into the forest on the side with their respective groups.

When they finally came to a secluded clearing, they finally stopped with both sides standing there facing each other.

No one said a single word until the older sister said, "This young master, thank you for saving us."

Lin Fan immediately knitted his brows when he heard this since this was clearly not the pattern that he was expecting, but he still said, "It's not a problem at all. Only, why did you want to talk to me alone? Was it just to thank me?"

The older sister revealed a faint smile when she heard this before saying, "This young master is correct, it wasn't just to thank you, but also.."

Then without another word, she suddenly took off her cloak to reveal her true appearance.

When Lin Fan saw this appearance, he was completely shocked.

Sharp ears.

This girl had sharp ears.

When the cloak came off, the appearance of a beautiful young girl with flowing blonde hair and piercing green eyes was revealed. But that wasn't what Lin Fan's eyes drifted to immediately. Rather, his eyes immediately fell onto the sharp ears that she had.

Since she had this kind of appearance and sharp ears, it could only mean one thing..

Elf!

She was an elf!

Now it was really feeling like another world!

This had been one of the things that Lin Fan hoped that he would be able to see the most after being reincarnated!

After all, elves were things that everyone on Earth had dreamed about and being able to meet one now was definitely a dream come true!

But then he realized that there was a problem.

The realm that he was currently in was a cultivation realm and when he had asked about elves before, he hadn't been able to find any information on them. It had almost been as if they didn't exist in this world of cultivation.

So where did these elves come from?

Lin Fan could tell from the looks on Lala and Xiao Yue's faces that they were also shocked to see the appearance of this girl.

After letting Lin Fan stand there in shock for a bit, the elf girl finally continued by saying, "It was also because I wanted to ask this young master something."

Lin Fan knitted his brows again before saying, "What is it?"

The elf girl narrowed her eyes to look at Lin Fan as she asked, "Has this young master ever met another one of my tribe before?"

Lin Fan was taken aback when he heard this, but he shook his head and honestly said, "No, I've never met an elf before."

The elf girl silently looked at Lin Fan for a bit before giving a nod with a smile and saying, "This young master, thank you for answering my question."

After that, she raised her hand and with a flash of green light, there was a leaf that suddenly appeared in it. However, this wasn't just a normal leaf, but rather it was a leaf that had such a pure green colour that it almost seemed like it had been carved from emerald.

However, the way that the leaf moved slightly when it was being held by her told Lin Fan that this was still a normal leaf.

The elf girl raised the leaf in front of Lin Fan and offered it to him as she said, "Young master, please accept this as a gift for saving us and answering my question."

Lin Fan was even more surprised by how things were going, but that wasn't the biggest shock that he had received today. The biggest shock that he received was when he looked at the leaf that the elf girl was presenting him.

When he used his Appraisal Eyes on the leaf, his mouth instantly fell down.

[World Tree Leaf]

A leaf that comes from the Sacred World Tree of the elves. This leaf has absorbed life energy over tens of thousands of years and is rumoured to be powerful enough to even bring the dead back to life.

Effects: Large healing effect (cannot calculate amount healed).

World Tree!

This was really starting to become like a fantasy world with the appearance of elves and World Trees!

In every game he played and every novel he read, the World Tree would always be considered a sacred item that was protected by the elves or something else. So how could things from the World Tree be offered that easily?historical

But there was a leaf from the World Tree in front of him right now..

Lin Fan looked back up at the elf girl and couldn't help wondering just who she was that she was able to give him a leaf from the World Tree like it was nothing..

After a moment of shock, Lin Fan forced himself to calm down before saying, "This is too precious. I can't take something like this."

The elf girl revealed an interested look before saying, "It seems like you know what this is.." Then after that, she said with a smile, "Please don't worry about it, we have plenty of these." Then her expression turned serious as she said, "Plus, I wouldn't feel right if I didn't repay my saviours. So I ask that you take this."

Lin Fan was about to keep rejecting, but before he could, the elf girl had already placed the World Tree Leaf in his hand without waiting for his response.

After putting it in his hand, the elf girl suddenly turned to leave.

However, after taking two steps, she suddenly remembered something and turned back to ask, "This young master, I almost forgot to ask, but what is your name?"

Lin Fan looked up at her and blurted out, "Lin Fan."

The elf girl revealed a smile after hearing this and said, "Young master Lin, my name is Flora. I hope that we will be able to meet each other again."

Then without saying another thing, the elf girl and the other cloaked girl disappeared into the woods.

[Ding, Flora has been intrigued by your actions and answers. Affection has increased by 5.]

In the end, Lin Fan was just left there standing in a daze over what had just happened.

The girl that he had suddenly met after saving a caravan had turned out to be an elf and she had given him a leaf from the legendary World Tree.

This..almost seemed like he had the main character halo around him..

Like he had some kind of plot armour..

Well, now that he thought about it, he could be considered a main character since he was the person who had reincarnated from another realm, but he had never encountered anything as lucky as this before..

Just what was going on?
