The lunar nineteenth, the city unlocked.
Once again, under Little Yuanxi’s reluctant gaze, Lu Ran steeled his heart and sent her onto the off-road vehicle.
Watching the large G gradually fade away, Lu Ran’s heart was also bittersweet.
Over the past three days, his life had been very warm.
Perhaps Qiao Yuansi realized that the day of Lu Ran’s departure was drawing nearer, so she beca extra clingy.
Lu Ran also tried his best to play the role of a good elder brother.
He tried to prepare every al well for her, cultivated with her, and accompanied her to watch dramas and variety shows.
But this warm ti, along with Qiao Yuansi’s departure, also disappeared.
Lu Ran felt an emptiness inside.
He returned to his empty ho, took a mont to calm his mind, then picked up his phone to look at the schedule listed in the mo.
"Black Grave Mound, Black Soul Wood Forest, Emperor’s Mausoleum, ’Heavenly Pride’ event."
Lu Ran sat on the sofa, pondering for a mont.
Black Grave Mound and Black Soul Wood Forest were the Demon Caves of the Dark Lantern Clan and the Soul-splitting Demon Clan, respectively.
The Emperor’s Mausoleum,
was the Demon Cave of the Evil Demon·Evil Spear Emperor.
In Lu Ran’s God Demon Sculpture Garden, these three sculptures of Evil Demons were all from the River Realm.
Two were of the Fourth Rank and one of the Fifth Rank.
Lu Ran planned to exert extra effort this month to travel to the three sites, aiming to upgrade all three Evil Sculptures to the River Realm.
Preparation for battle, of course, required a proactive attitude!
Although Lu Ran possessed many Evil Sculptures and Evil Techniques.
But the Dark Lantern Clan was the only one that could provide Lu Ran with Healing Techniques.
Caged Fire·Bath!
Lu Ran could summon gentle black flas to heal the target’s injuries.
This technique had a very low usage rate for Lu Ran.
Regarding this, his principle was: I might not use it, but I must have it!
This was a lifesaving technique!
It could save others,
and even more so, save oneself.
As for the Soul-splitting Demon Clan, there was even less to say.
This clan possessed a Power Amplification technique—Soul Splitting Power!
This was an essential for Lu Ran!
The Evil Spear Emperor was designated by Lu Ran as the leader of the servant squad, naturally requiring careful cultivation.
"Hmm..." Lu Ran looked at the mo on his phone.
The ’Heavenly Pride’ event was scheduled for the first day of the twelfth lunar month, lasting two days.
And the location was in the Three Qin Land, quite close to the Evil Spear Emperor’s Demon Cave.
In that case, he could first visit the Dark Lantern Demon Cave and the Soul-splitting Demon Cave, then participate in the ’Heavenly Pride’ event and subsequently head to the Emperor’s Mausoleum for a fight!
Once these three Evil Sculptures ascended to the River Realm,
the ranks of Lu Ran’s subordinates would all be of the River Realm!
Thinking of this, Lu Ran felt a stir in his heart and quickly rose to walk towards the small bedroom.
"Lord Immortal Sheep."
Lu Ran bowed respectfully and continued, "Disciple has decided to start the Barbaric Woman sculpture and the Tangled Silk Shadow sculpture.
Do you have ti now to accompany for a walk in the God Demon Sculpture Garden?"
In the small shrine, the Immortal Sheep Jade Carving was silent.
Lu Ran waited for a mont and continued, "In less than two months, your disciple will challenge the Divine Ruins.
I plan to make use of the ti to add two more generals beneath my command, and next month I will cultivate them to the River..."
"Hmm."
Before Lu Ran could finish his sentence, a deep voice entered his mind.
"Thank you, Lord Immortal Sheep." Lu Ran sat cross-legged, closing his eyes tightly.
The next mont, he entered the spiritual world, returning to the God Demon Sculpture Garden.
"Huh~"
Lu Ran tilted his head up to see a fiercely burning Black Fire Sheep Head floating in mid-air.
That pair of lifeless horizontal pupils glanced at Lu Ran, then looked upwards.
Lu Ran imdiately turned and saw a pair of stone boots.
He recognized the style of these battle boots, of course.
Lu Ran kept looking up, and then up again...
A tall and mighty female general stood imposingly.
The Barbaric Woman!
This was a gray stone sculpture, but Lu Ran accurately imagined her real appearance.
ssy red hair, bloodthirsty red pupils.
The wild smile at the corner of her mouth.
Armored and wielding an axe, exuding a nacing air!
Her extrely sultry body could be described as "arrogant."
Hmm... truly damn wild!
"Please, Lord Immortal Sheep, lend a hand!" Lu Ran spoke in a deep tone.
"Buzz!!"
The Barbaric Woman sculpture trembled.
Mists and silk threads shot out from the massive sculpture, tightly connecting to the tiny Lu Ran.
Mist Realm, Stream Realm, River Realm...
River Realm·Second Rank!
Lu Ran sighed inwardly, just Second Rank?
Next month, there’ll be a lot to do.
Subsequently, Lu Ran went to the Tangled Silk Shadow sculpture.
Alright,
another "arrogant" female Evil Demon.
This one, however, was of the sexy and enchanting type.
Extrely seductive and bewitching!
In Lu Ran’s eyes, the Tangled Silk Shadow was far more enticing than "Big Chang Ying"!
"Sinful, sinful."
Lu Ran murmured to himself to prevent his path from being disturbed by the temptress.
With the help of the Black Fire Sheep Head, the Tangled Silk Shadow sculpture was activated.
Mist Realm, Stream Realm, River Realm...
River Realm·First Rank!
Just the First Rank?
Lu Ran grimaced, not daring to raise his head to look at the Tangled Silk Shadow’s sculpture.
Even though he didn’t look up, he could still see under her ragged skirt, those exquisitely sculpted stone feet.
She was standing on her tiptoes,
the arch of her foot was so elegant.
It was as if every detail of this sexy physique could captivate and srize.
Damn,
she’s purely a disaster!
You can just stand there; why go on tiptoes...
Lu Ran simply closed his eyes.
Monts later, Lu Ran in the small bedroom opened his eyes.
He imdiately got up and bowed towards the small shrine, "Thank you for your help, Lord Immortal Sheep."
The divine being did not respond.
Ever since Lord Immortal Sheep ntioned preparing to open the Divine Ruins, it seldom spoke.
Lu Ran no longer bothered the divine being and approached a small table, sitting down.
The techniques of the Barbaric Woman Clan were mostly high-output and unsuitable for practice at ho.
But the techniques of the Tangled Silk Shadow Clan could be played with.
Droplets of Tangled Silk Needle,
imprisoning the enemy with Tangled Silk Web.
Controlling all things with Tangled Silk Line,
disrupting the enemy’s Divine Power with Tangled Silk Chaos.
Exceedingly heavy, capable of shooting out myriad silk threads, the Tether Silk Robe.
And the terrifying Illusion Technique, Tangled Silk Pupil, that tornts the spirit.
"Swish~"
Lu Ran raised his hand, twining fine red threads around his fingers.
It’s said:
Better to barge into King Yan’s palace than to touch a silk thread!
Little Calico, today I’m going to let you touch... eh?
Lu Ran’s hand stiffened.
Little Calico was not ho.
Tch~
What a pity.
Such a blessing, and Little Calico couldn’t enjoy it.
Hmm... how about visiting Jiang’s Family?
Lu Ran raised his hand, gazing at the beautiful red threads wound around his fingers.
Four words suddenly popped into his mind:
Dongfang Bubai?!
His fingers were slender, his palm sufficiently fair, making him perfectly able to cosplay the character!
Lu Ran had practiced martial arts since childhood, and the hand he frequently used for holding a blade was sowhat rough.
But Lu Ran had received a divine blessing!
Twice!
This husk of his was flawless in every detail.
Speaking of which, even if he hadn’t been blessed, Lu Ran also possessed the Healing Technique·Caged Fire (Bath).
This fire, not only healed wounds but also nourished the skin...
"Calico ah Calico, no blessings for you~"
Lu Ran waved his hand, and the red silk threads on his fingers quietly vanished.
Today he wouldn’t beco Dongfang Bubai.
When he went to the Black Soul Wood Forest, he’d jab those Soul-splitting Demons with needles...
Lu Ran picked up his phone to check the ti.
Seven fifty in the morning.
The train to Liaodong Province·Jinchuan City was at nine ten.
Lu Ran hesitated for a mont, then sent a WeChat ssage to Jiang Ruyi, planning to report his itinerary.
But unexpectedly,
Si Xianxian sent a WeChat ssage:
"The young mistress has just completed her morning exercise and is bathing."
Ran: "..."
Sister Xian’er: "Is there anything you need, Young Master? Shall I relay it?"
Ran: "How are you finding Luoxian Mountain?"
The ssage had just been sent when a video call popped up.
Lu Ran directly answered, seeing the very cheerful Sister Xian’er.
"Young Master~" Sister Xian’er’s voice was sweet, her smile even sweeter.
Lu Ran looked at the background behind her, knowing she was in the master bedroom, and asked, "Getting used to living there?"
Just one question, and Si Xianxian revealed her true self, pouting, "It’s okay."
Ran: "Do you find it boring?"
Si Xianxian casually straightened her disheveled hair and huffed, "At least it’s better than at ho; no one nags here."
Ran chuckled, "Your heart, has it cald a bit?"
Si Xianxian stared at Lu Ran’s face, a surge of gratitude welling up inside her.
As a Fierce Heavenly believer, she knew better than anyone else what she truly needed.
Si Xianxian was grateful at heart, but aloud she said, "It’s alright."
Ran advised, "You could enjoy the mountain flowers and plants with Ruyi more often.
Watch Cang Mountain, Erhai, and the evening sunsets."
The words spoken by Lu Ran were precisely what Jiang Ruyi had been doing with Si Xianxian every day for nearly a month.
Si Xianxian knew in her heart that this young couple was trying to help her.
Or rather: they were saving her.
Si Xianxian rested her chin on her hand, uncommonly not being stubborn, and whispered, "Hmm."
She didn’t consider what would happen after leaving Luoxian Village or how to handle herself if sent back to her old self.
It had been so long; Si Xianxian had grown accustod to living in the mont, not thinking about the future.
Those beautiful lives, those happy tis, were never ant for soone like her.
If she was truly fortunate to have a segnt of it...
It was either charity from others.
Or sothing she had stolen.
Ran: "Have you visited Luoxian Village?"
Si Xianxian’s smile grew even sweeter: "Ruyi and I often go to worship Lord Immortal Sheep.
The uncles and aunties in the village are very enthusiastic and treat well."
A world filled with tolerance and kindness, for the Lie Tian Girl, seed sowhat unrealistic.
"That’s good." Lu Ran nodded, "Try to stay longer.
If you really want to have fun, let Ruyi take you out to the city."
Ran: "Lu Ran."
"What?"
Si Xianxian: "I’m not soone who likes to travel everywhere."
Ran: "Ah?"
Aren’t you being hypocritical?
Have you forgotten how you begged to take you flying everywhere?
Si Xianxian shrugged, "It’s only after coming here that I realized I don’t actually like traveling."
Lu Ran didn’t respond, seeming to understand her aning.
Si Xianxian fell silent for a mont, then said, "Or perhaps I still like it, but it doesn’t matter.
I know very clearly that I prefer staying here more."
Ran: "I can’t guarantee other things, but as long as you want, you can stay there forever."
Si Xianxian lowered her eyelids and whispered softly, "Thank you."
"Who are you chatting with?"
Suddenly, a cool voice ca through.
Si Xianxian’s deanor changed, and she looked up smiling, "Has the young mistress finished bathing and dressing?
Quick, quick, it’s the Young Master on the phone!"
Sister Xian’er!" Jiang Ruyi was quite helpless.
This had been a joke between Lu Ran and Si Xianxian, but Si Xianxian had really taken the title to heart.
In daily life, Si Xianxian listened to Jiang Ruyi attentively, serving her as much as possible.
This made Jiang Ruyi quite uncomfortable.
She had seriously discussed this with Si Xianxian, hoping their relationship would be that of good girlfriends.
But Si Xianxian was more stubborn than expected.
Jiang Ruyi couldn’t change the reverence the Immortal Sheep sect had for her, nor the hierarchical beliefs of the Immortal Sheep believers.
Likewise, she couldn’t change Si Xianxian’s attitude.
And all because of one person.
Because of the guy on the phone screen.
"Tsk, absolutely beautiful~"
The hateful guy uttered embarrassing words.
Jiang Ruyi’s face turned slightly red, and she discreetly glanced at Lu Ran, quietly explaining, "I’ve been trying to restrain myself.
Now, when Sister Xian’er look at , she doesn’t get lost in thought anymore."
Ran: "Are you sure it’s not because she’s seen you so often that she’s gotten used to it?"
Jiang Ruyi looked dissatisfied and scrunched her nose at him.
Her cool deanor, coupled with a playful expression, had a distinct charm.
Lu Ran admired her quietly for a mont and then began, "This month, I’ll be participating in the ’Heavenly Pride’ event, then heading to the Emperor’s Mausoleum, and sparring with the Evil Spear Emperor again..."
Jiang Ruyi listened, quietly watching his eyes.
Her thoughts, drifting far away.
...
Ask for so monthly tickets.
