Chapter 131: Accompanying the Witch!

The cultivators went to the Grand Myriad Mountain Range one after another in search of the immortal destinies.

Of course, Sheng Zhixia was the exception.

She said that she would stay to comfort the people and clean up the corpses of the demon beasts outside the city, so she did not follow them into the mountain range.

Li Ran was impressed.

It could be seen that this imperial daughter really loved the citizen.

Her status was noble, and she was also a Golden Core Realm genius. It was very rare for people of her standing to have such a mindset.

But for some reason, Sheng Zhixia looked at him with a strange expression.

Her gaze was a little evasive, a little shy, and a little… surprised?

However, Li Ran didn't probe further.

He only thought that the little girl was thin-skinned. She was embarrassed after seeing him take a shower yesterday.

He didn't know that Sheng Zhixia had seen everything he had done all day and night.

This had significantly impacted the young girl's heart…

Other than the royal princess who was left behind, the others simply tidied up and flew towards the Grand Myriad Mountain Range.

To avoid causing too much noise and attracting powerful demon beasts, everyone spontaneously split into groups.

Each group was separated by several hundred meters and advanced towards the depths of the dense forest.

Outside the dense forest, Li Ran and Yue Jianli were suspended in the air.

Li Ran looked at the disciples of the Myriad Sword Pavilion and Youluo Temple behind him and sighed. "Looks like we can only split up."

"Yes." Yue Jianli nodded helplessly.

In front of these disciples, they still had to maintain a proper distance.

Li Ran reminded her, "Break the jade pendant I gave you earlier and crush it in case of danger. I will sense it immediately."

The Grand Myriad Mountain Range was full of strange things. Although Yue Jianli was not weak, he was still worried.

Seeing his worried expression, Yue Jianli felt soft inside.

She couldn't help but whisper into his ear, "Got it, good brother."

Li Ran had forced her to call him that when the two of them were being absurd yesterday.

Seeing Yue Jianli's timid expression, he almost couldn't control himself and wanted to drag this girl back to the restaurant.

After Yue Jianli had finished speaking, she ran away with a red face.

Li Ran shook his head and smiled at her charming back.

"I didn't expect her to learn how to flirt…"

After watching her leave, Li Ran cleared his throat and said, "Youluo Temple disciples, listen to my orders."

"Yes." Everyone answered.

Li Ran said, "Form a defensive formation and immediately evacuate if there is danger. The gathering point is the teleportation array! No matter how many people I bring out, I will bring back as many people as I can. So not a single one of you can be left behind!“

"Yes!" The disciples of Youluo Temple responded, their eyes filled with admiration and conviction.

Grand Myriad Mountain Range…

This place was different from when Li Ran first came here.

Lin Langyue was right. The demon beasts had indeed become stronger.

To be exact, the demon beasts in the depths had all come to the periphery.

In the last sect trial, even disciples in the Qi Refining Realm and Foundation Establishment Realm could explore the outskirts.

But now that they had just entered the dense forest, they encountered three Foundation Establishment demon beasts and one Golden Core demon beast!

Bang!

Li Ran smashed the Golden Core Demon Tiger's head with his spear. His gaze was a little solemn.

This was illogical.

Just as she was about to say something, a soft rustling sound came from the side.

Li Ran didn't even look at it as he turned his hand to stab at it.

Buzz!

A pink glow lit up and swept the Yun Ling Spear aside.

Qin Ruyan walked out of the dense forest. Her pretty face was filled with resentment as she said, "Sheng ZI Li is an impetuous person. He stabbed me with a spear the moment he met me.“

“……” Li Ran smiled. "Sorry, I thought it was a monstrous beast."

Qin Ruyan rolled her eyes at him. "Have you ever seen such a beautiful demon beast?"

As she spoke, she circled around the spot. The black gauze slightly swayed, and her figure was as plump as a peach.

Li Ran had seen many beautiful women before. Each of them was a stunning beauty.

Qin Ruyan might not be the most beautiful, but she was the most charming. Her every move made people's hearts tremble.

"As expected of the Holy Maiden of the Joyous Unity Sect, she is indeed professional.” Li Ran gave a thumbs up.

Tch~

Qin Ruyan restrained her expression when she saw that he was unmoved.

"Sheng Zi Li, we just happened to meet. Why don't we go together?" she suggested.

Li Ran thought about it and nodded. "All right."

The forest was indescribably strange. The Joyous Unity Sect had extraordinary strength, so it was not harmful to take her along.

Qin Ruyan's expression lit up when she heard this. She walked briskly to his side.

"Let's go then."

"Okay."

The two of them continued to lead the group of disciples towards the depths of the dense forest.

With the addition of the Joyous Unity Sect, it was much easier to hunt demon beasts, and their speed was much faster.

Along the way, Qin Ruyan sized up Li Ran.

One could only see his white robes fluttering about. He was graceful and handsome, and his eyes were full of heroic spirit. He was just like an elegant young master.

He looked like a completely different person from the brutal man who killed the Thunderous Feral Lion bare-chested that day.

Li Ran noticed her gaze and frowned. "What are you staring at me for?"

Qin Ruyan smiled and said, "This servant still likes Sheng Zi Li’s appearance without any clothes."

Li Ran was speechless. "…"

Qin Ruyan tilted her head and asked, "Don't you want to know why?"

"I don't want to." Li Ran shook his head.

Qin Ruyan bit her lips and said to herself, "Because you look so fierce…"

Li Ran almost fell from the air.

He suddenly regretted going with this witch.

"Hehehe~"

Qin Ruyan covered her mouth and smiled, her delicate body trembling.

Then, she thought of something and sighed. "It's a pity that Lin Langyue did not die in the beast tide."

"Lin Langyue?" asked Li Ran curiously. "What grudges do you have against her?"

She was very excited about Lin Langyue's getting beaten the first time he saw her.

Qin Ruyan shrugged. "This servant is just looking at her with displeasure. She’s always put on an aloof attitude and speaks heartlessly. Does she think she is higher than the mortal world?"

"That's true." Li Ran nodded.

There were thousands of great paths, and they reached the same goal by treading past different paths.

There was indeed no difference between them.

Qin Ruyan seemed to have thought of something. She smiled and said, "You must agree with this servant. After all, you and Chief Yue…"

Her voice suddenly stopped.

Li Ran grabbed her by the neck and slammed her into the tree trunk!

The ancient tree trembled for a moment. Then, finally, it broke from the middle and slowly fell.

The disciples did not react.

Just now, the two of them were chatting and laughing. So why did they suddenly start fighting?

Qin Ruyan's face turned pale as she forced a smile. "What are you doing, Sheng Zi Li?"

Li Ran's pitch-black eyes were stained with golden light, and his eyes were filled with cold killing intent. "You dare to spy on me?"
