The Old Gods

Chapter 895 Sky

【elder brother? 】

【New Year's Eve? 】

【I talked to Sister Yiren, and she wants to choose Tianluan. Is that okay?】

【sure. 】

"Okay, then I'll take Sister Yiren to find you right now," Qiao Yuanxi said excitedly.

On the bed, Lu Ran opened his eyes, his expression slightly strange.

Is a great swordsman who has slain countless enemies going to switch to a support-oriented healer? However, the second-class god, Tianluan, is indeed the highest-ranking god that Lu Ran can give.

Lu Ran got up and got out of bed, sighing inwardly at the true nature of a disciple of the Sword Sect.

That's really decisive, isn't it?

All told, he and Xiao Yuanxi had been separated for less than half an hour, and now there was a result.

Lu Ran entered the hall, sat on the armchair, and waited for his beloved to arrive.

Soon, two figures, one tall and one short, walked out of the tunnel and into the hall.

At 168cm tall, Yuanxi is actually one of the shorter ones.
"Brother!" With the help of the magical artifact, Qiao Yuanxi located Lu Ran's position, grabbed Guan Yiren's arm, and quickly stepped forward.

But when she reached the center of the hall, Guan Yiren stopped: "Sect Leader Lu."

"When there are other people around, give me a little face," Lu Ran said with a smile as he stood up. "In private, just call me by my full name as before."

"Hehe~" Qiao Yuanxi chuckled.

Guan Yiren pursed her lips. Without Qiao Yuanxi's special abilities, it would be difficult to coexist harmoniously with powerful beings.

"Have you made your choice, Tianluan?" Lu Ran approached Guan Yiren, looking at her signature willow-leaf eyes.

The woman's overall temperament was exactly the same as Leng Xuanshuang's, and their looks were also quite similar.

As Lu Ran watched, he began to feel a little envious of Jiang Ruyi.

They really know how to pick people!

"I've made my choice." Guan Yiren lowered her head slightly, her voice soft but decisive.

"Can you tell me why?"

Guan Yiren replied without hesitation: "The Tianluan faction's output is indeed somewhat inferior, but their movement speed is not slow, so I can adapt to them more easily."

This faction excels in defense, support, and control, and their healing abilities are top-tier.

Qiao Yuanxi added, "You can even share life with others!"

As a second-class god, Tianluan possesses two powerful skills.

Jiang Jingshi's ultimate skill is called Luan Clan Holy Light, which can summon a giant celestial luan to appear, emitting a bright and dazzling light that heals all living beings and nourishes the mind.

The ultimate skill adapted to the sea realm is called Luan Sheng.

This move is incredible!
Tianluan disciples can share life force with a selected target!
Note that this refers to "selected targets," not limited to friendly units.

When you are connected with your allies, you naturally share life force and bear the consequences of damage together.

If you activate this ultimate skill and connect with an enemy, you can even use self-harm to deprive the enemy of their life force!

You lose 800 of your own health, but injure the enemy by 800!
Lu Ran looked at the woman with her eyes lowered and said, "The Phoenix Life Technique is extremely powerful. Currently, the Ran Clan is still on the right path, slaughtering gods and demons."

But in the future, when facing powerful adversaries, we might have to resort to unorthodox methods.

Guan Yiren interrupted, which was unusual for her: "I joined the sect relatively late, but I have known Yuan Xi and the sect leader for quite some time. Yuan Xi knows my character well and can act as a guarantor."

She is willing to take on this responsibility.

"To do what I can for the Burning Gate and for humanity."

Qiao Yuanxi's expression changed, and her smile vanished.

In her heart, the Divine Magic Luan Sheng was a magic weapon to ensure Guan Yiren's safety.

However, from their conversation, Qiao Yuanxi could tell that both of them regarded this life-sharing method as an alternative form of offensive skill.

"Sister Yiren," Qiao Yuanxi said anxiously.

Guan Yiren gently squeezed Qiao Yuanxi's small hand with her naturally lowered hand.

Children from privileged families, especially those with strong family traditions and strict upbringing, often carry a special sense of mission.

Guan Yiren used to think that Holy Spirit Mountain was extremely filthy.

Under the dark rule of gods and demons, she knew she was powerless to change anything, so she chose to exile herself.

But now that I've met Lu Ran, everything is different.

Hope, capital, fellow travelers.

Lu Ran's existence completely changed her situation, making her want to do something.

Besides family factors, Guan Yiren has another identity – the pride of the Great Summer.

Although the second season of "Tianjiao" was suspended midway, she was still selected for the list of 100 people, and her status was not questionable.

Da Xia Selects!
"Currently, the mission of the Burning Gate is progressing well, and everything is proceeding in an orderly manner," Lu Ran reassured them. "In the future, we will proceed step by step, crushing the enemy with overwhelming force."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and patted Xiao Yuanxi's head: "Try to keep Luansheng's medical skills true to their nature."

Lu Ran's words reassured Qiao Yuanxi somewhat.

My older brother is a man of his word, without a doubt.

The same goes for Sister Yiren; having chosen Tianluan, she cannot change her mind.

"Come on, I'll help you sign the inheritance contract." Lu Ran's hand, which was on Xiao Yuanxi's head, was raised again and moved to Guan Yiren's head.

A huge phantom image expanded out from his body.

The leader of the Eight Great Heavenly Demons—Tianluan!
The phoenix was pure white, with a graceful figure and a long neck with a beautiful curve.

It exudes nobility and purity.

Unfortunately, the afterimage of the deity was shrouded in mist, and others could not see it clearly.

Lu Ran did everything with practiced ease, signing a contract with Guan Yiren while carrying the afterimage of the god, then protecting her and breaking the master-servant contract with the god Jianyi.

A moment later, Guan Yiren's body began to tremble.

Lu Ran explained, "I just activated the Heavenly Phoenix Divine Sculpture, and it is currently in the process of advancing. This process is very valuable and can quickly deepen your integration with the divine sculpture."

"Yes, yes." Guan Yiren kept her head down, a faint blush rising on her delicate, fair face. A misty haze swirled between heaven and earth.

But Guan Yiren knew very well that she was burying her head in the sand.

Lu Ran must have seen her embarrassing situation.

Fortunately, Lu Ran didn't make things difficult for her. The young man's voice, gentle and deep, drifted through the mist again:
"Go back and cultivate."

"Yes." Guan Yiren practically fled, quickly leaving with Qiao Yuanxi.

Lu Ran smiled as he watched her slender figure from behind, and suddenly felt that Guan Yiren was really quite suitable for Tianluan.

Tianluan was born with a beautiful and graceful figure.

Guan Yiren is pretty good too~
When it is quiet, it is like a beautiful flower shining on the water, and when it is in action, it is like a weak willow supporting the wind.

Tsk~ Now Lady Ranmen's four guards are complete.

Two flowers, one bird, and one beast!
Mei Xuanshuang, Liantian Tiantian.

The pomegranate fire, the phoenix beauty.

Flowers and birds and beasts, that's easy to remember, isn't it?
Speaking of which, Xiao Yuanxi's ox-head and horse-faced bodyguards are still missing one horse-faced one.
Difficult to do.

[That person.]

[Lu Ran?] Guan Yiren's voice echoed in his mind.

"Do you have any news about Wang Ling?" Lu Ran asked.

Wang Ling was the last member of Qiao Yuanxi's team.

All I know is that he was summoned to a pilgrimage by the gunman, and since then, I've heard nothing more from him.

"Hmm." Lu Ran sighed inwardly.

Guan Yiren's heart stirred slightly. After realizing that Lu Ran had this intention, she immediately communicated with Qiao Yuanxi.

A moment later, Lu Ran received a telepathic message from Xiao Yuanxi: [Brother?]

【how? 】

Should we look for a skeleton?

Hearing that nickname again brought back memories, and Lu Ran couldn't help but shake his head with a smile.

"We could send him a text message in my name, or go to the ancient city to look for him!" Qiao Yuanxi quickly suggested.

Go to the ancient city at the foot of the spear to find the other party?

Lu Ran sat back in the armchair and remained silent.

He had always been somewhat reluctant to visit ancient cities, but things are different now.
After a moment of contemplation, Lu Ran pictured the face of the evil guardian in his mind.

Now she has become a vicious dog in wolf's clothing, possessing the skills of teleportation and invisibility.

Just half an hour ago, Yan Shuangzi, in her false god form, signed a master-servant contract with the evil god You Tong Gui.

It was equipped with a pair of bewitching eyes.

Sending her to investigate and gather intelligence would actually be a good idea.

"Brother, are you listening? It would be great if we could recruit the skeleton into the Burning Gate! Our team would be complete. Uh, the skeleton is really powerful!" Qiao Yuanxi strongly recommended.

Back when Lu Ran dragged her into the Ran Sect, she only dared to go to Niu Zhengzheng and dared not touch Guan Wang in the slightest.

Everything is due to the lack of strength of the Burning Gate.

Qiao Yuanxi's attitude has now undergone a complete 180-degree change.

strength,

It is the best solution to overcome all difficulties!
"Brother~" Qiao Yuanxi said in a coquettish tone, changing her one-word address to two words.

That cloying voice sent chills down Lu Ran's spine!
"Fine, fine, I'll investigate first," Lu Ran replied helplessly.

【Yay~ Brother is the best!】 Xiao Yuanxi cheered, hoping that her team could reunite.

The four members of the team are comrades-in-arms who have fought side by side, share a deep bond, and know each other inside and out.

In addition, Wang Ling's overall qualities are evident; he was also carefully selected by the Great Xia Dynasty and is among the most outstanding talents!

Qiao Yuanxi naturally wanted such a talented young man to assist her brother.

Deep down, she didn't want to be separated from anyone, whether family or close friends—those who had appeared in her life. She didn't want to see any of them gradually fade away.
I'm used to saying goodbye.

I find it utterly disgusting.

Guan Yiren's appearance opened up Qiao Yuanxi's long-sealed and suppressed heart.

The rapid increase in Lu Ran's and the Ranmen's strength has also provided fertile ground for her "willfulness".

Qiao Yuanxi finally acted willfully for once, using her skills of acting cute and unreasonable.

as predicted!

He agreed.

Qiao Yuanxi was secretly delighted, fantasizing about the team's reunion.

But this is only a small step!

Her biggest aspirations were for her mother, her brother, and herself.
Without realizing it, something seemed to have come loose.

Inside the tunnel leading to the underground city, Qiao Yuanxi suddenly stopped, her body stiffening.

At the same time, inside Tianya Residence, Lu Ran summoned a demonic afterimage.

"Master." Yan Shuangzi bowed respectfully.

"Let's piece together the physical body," Lu Ran said thoughtfully. "I need to go back to the mortal realm later to report the results to Lord Immortal Sheep. You'll come back with me to carry out a mission."

"Yes!" Yan Shuangzi immediately created the body of the henchman.

Lu Ran thought of something else, connecting with the spirit of the Great Nightmare.

Soon, a surge of energy erupted from his pupils, and Lu Ran raised his hand to catch the magical artifact, the Smoke Green Gauze.

"Put it on, and hide your imposing manner."

"Yes."
