Chapter 341: You aren’t planning against Master, are you?

Seeing Yue Jianli’s resentful expression, Li Ran’s gaze was somewhat erratic.

He knew what the other party meant.

Just now, he’d used his soul attack and Dharma Idol in a state of desperation, and his identity was completely exposed.

Although it was essential for his own good, it was true that he was hiding his identity…

Li Ran scratched his head. “This is a long story.”

“Then let’s talk slowly.” Yue Jianli narrowed her eyes. “Why did you become Master’s disciple? And a female disciple? I need a reasonable explanation for this.”

Li Ran said helplessly, “It’s actually because of Shen Ning…”

There was no point in pretending anymore.

He briefly explained what had happened after the Immortal Ascension Assembly.

Yue Jianli had serious expression, “You’re saying that Shen Ning is a steel egg? And she’s also a disciple of the Youluo Temple?”

Li Ran nodded. “That’s right.”

Yue Jianli was somewhat confused.

She knew that her master really wanted to accept this disciple, Shen Ning, but she did not expect it to be this way.

As the sect leader of the Righteous path, she had accepted a Devil Dao disciple as a personal disciple.

“It really is Master’s style… She’s always been so unexpected.”

Li Ran continued, “I’m worried about Shen Ning, so I wanted to come to the Myriad Swords Pavilion. As for Sect Master Chu, in order to cover up my identity, she changed my appearance and even declared that I was her disciple…”

Yue Jianli suddenly understood.

No wonder her Master had appeared in the Li Family back then, and then two more personal disciples had appeared. So, it was all because of this.

“But…”

She pinched her smooth chin and sized her up. “Why do you have to disguise yourself like this?”

Seeing Yue Jianli’s faint smile, Li Ran wished he could find a hole in the ground.

“It was the sword head’s idea! She said that only by pretending to be a woman could I live in her bedroom. In order to watch Shen Ning cultivate, what can I do?”

“Yes, that’s right. Master’s male disciple is indeed unable to enter.”

Yue Jianli patted him on the shoulder and stifled her laughter, “As long as you’re not a freak… Li Tiezhu? Haha!”

Li Ran’s face darkened.

Yue Jianli smiled for a while before gradually calming down.

She wiped her tears and said, “I can understand what you said, but why did you keep it from me? When I had a premonition, you lied to me!”

As she said that, her mouth rose.

She was still overjoyed, but now, her face filled with grievance.

Li Ran sighed in his heart and explained, “I’ve been on Cloud Sword Island all this time. What if I tell you my true identity and expose our relationship?”

He pinched Yue Jianli’s small face. “I don’t want to see you expelled from the sect.”

Yue Jianli snorted. “So you’re still doing this for me?”

Li Ran said seriously, “That’s only natural. How could I act so hard?”

Corners of Yue Jianli’s mouth curled up slightly, and the last bit of bitterness in her heart dissipated. “Alright, even if your explanation barely passes.”

Only then did Li Ran let out a sigh of relief.

“You don’t seem to be surprised at my identity at all? Could it be that you already guessed it?”

Yue Jianli shook her head. “I did have this premonition earlier, but I couldn’t figure it out in many places so that I couldn’t be sure. When you asked me to refine the Heavenly Flame, I was completely certain that you were Li Ran.”

Li Ran was taken aback. “Refining Heavenly Flames? I was already exposed?”

“Of course.”

Yue Jianli’s eyes filled with warmth. “That’s the Pure Lotus Sacred Flame, a supreme treasure that even an Emperor-level expert wouldn’t let go of! How could anyone give such good fortune to others?”

“At that moment, I knew that you must be Li Ran.”

“Because other than you, there’s no other person in the world treats me so well.”

Two of them looked at each other, their hearts filled with warmth.

Like the ice-cold sea was beginning to warm up.

They couldn’t help but get closer and closer, and then…

Pa!

Yue Jianli’s delicate hand covered her face, and said, “You, you should change back to your own appearance. I can’t keep my mouth shut like this.”

……

Li Ran shrugged. “I wanted to turn it back, but this is sword head’s spell. I can’t remove it.”

“Looks like I can only look at this face for a while… Fortunately, I was a female cultivator, so I felt a little more comfortable.”

If it were any other man… She felt goosebumps all over her body when she thought about it.

Now that the matter had been explained, Li Ran felt much more relaxed.

“Why don’t we go back to the sect first?”

Yue Jianli replied, “No, I’ll have to keep my distance from you when I get back.”

She thought for a moment and said, “Why don’t we go for a stroll around Jiangzhe City on the west coast?”

“Jiangzhe City?”

“Mm. The scenery over there is pretty good. Sea food is also very delicious. Why don’t you accompany me for a stroll.”

“Uh… Alright.”

Since there was nothing to do when he returned, Li Ran nodded his head and agreed.

“Great, let’s go.”

Yue Jianli excitedly pulled him up to the surface of the sea.

Two of them left the gloomy deep sea. The sun shone on their bodies through the sea water, and their mood became joyful.

Compared to the ugly appearance of the creatures at the bottom of the sea, Li Ran felt that the fish beside him were all so cute.

At this moment, Yue Jianli recalled something and said, “Right, I have a question for you…”

Li Ran replied casually, “Go ahead.”

She frowned slightly, “Back in the Sword Purification Pool. Master crippled Chen Beihe for you. What exactly is going on?”

In her impression, her master hated Li Ran very much.

But this time, not only did he live in the palace, Master even directly killed the great Elder’s cultivation to help him… This was indeed somewhat unreasonable.

After all, he was not a true disciple of the Myriad Sword Pavilion.

Li Ran said in a reasonable manner, “The sword head might have been displeased by Chen Beihe long ago. This time, he happened to hit the muzzle of the gun, so of course, she would make an example of him.”

“Is that so?” Yue Jianli’s eyes filled with doubt. “But after this, why did you guys hug on the stage for so long?”

“This…”

Li Ran had no words and did not know how to explain.

Yue Jianli frowned even deeper. “You… You’re not planning on master, are you?”

Ahem!

Sheng Zi Li’s face turned red. He almost choked on his saliva.

“Are you planning on Master?”
