Chapter 1058 Combat Strength Level
Luo Liu decisively sheathed his Crescent Moon Blade. There was no need to test her anymore. Fairy Ranxi's combat strength was no less than his, and her natal magic weapon was very powerful. If they clashed head-on, his Crescent Moon Blade would definitely be damaged.

Seeing that the other party had put away their natal immortal treasure and also put the Nine Nether Sword back into the umbrella handle, Yunxi became even more certain that her approach of upgrading the immortal treasure was correct, especially since the Nine Nether Dragon Umbrella had become a pseudo-divine artifact after being tempered by the lightning tribulation.

Once the aftershocks within the protective shield dissipated, Luo San removed the shield, and Luo Liu and Yun Xi entered the reception room one after the other.

Luo Liu nodded to the eldest brother at the head of the table, indicating that Yun Xi met the standards for the Luo family's invited elders.

Meng Lanjun then turned to greet Yun Xi, her delicate face filled with worry:

"Ranxi, are you alright? Are you hurt? Didn't we agree it was just a friendly spar? Why did it actually escalate into a fight?"

Yunxi felt goosebumps creep up her back and coughed lightly, saying:

"It was my fault for not controlling my strength."

Meng Lanjun glanced at Yun Xi to make sure she wasn't injured before pulling her back to her seat.

Elder Luo spoke up at the opportune moment:

"Fairy Ranxi, you have passed the Luo family's test, but we still need to verify your identity. As you know, since the return of the Weiling Realm, the Evil Immortal has resurfaced and caused many troubles over the past thousand years. Once we confirm that your identity is correct, you can stay in the Luo family as a guest elder. We hope you can understand."

The other party's words were straightforward and true. After all, the Luo family could not possibly invite someone with questionable background to teach the younger generation. It would be terrible if they were a disguised evil immortal who had infiltrated the family.

Yun Xi nodded and said:
"Don't worry, Lord Luo, I understand these rules. However, my friend Lan Jun may have to stay at the Luo family to wait for news."

Elder Luo nodded and said:

"Alright, the manager will arrange a separate courtyard for you to stay temporarily."

Upon hearing this, Yunxi immediately bowed and expressed her gratitude. Luo Qian, the steward who had previously received Yunxi, appeared outside the reception room and respectfully led Yunxi to her temporary residence.

After Yunxi and Menglanjun left, Luo Sancai looked at his sixth brother and said:
"Xiao Liu, you really went all out this time! You even shattered my protective shield."

Luo Liu's face darkened, but he still explained:

"I was partly responsible for the shield being shattered, but Fairy Ranxi was the main force. Her sword was quite powerful, but fortunately she controlled her strength, and most of the attacks landed on the shield."

Luo Er paused, his hand twirling the black jade walnut:
"From what you're saying, Ranxi's combat strength is above yours?"

Although Luo Liu didn't want to admit it, he still nodded and added:
"After my fight with Fairy Ranxi just now, I found that she reacts very quickly and is very skillful in her battles. This kind of instinctive physical reaction cannot be faked; it must have been honed through long-term combat experience."

Most importantly, she held back during our sparring session and didn't use any lethal attacks. We should keep someone like her in the Luo family.

Luo San stroked his mustache and said with a smile:

"It seems we've struck gold this time. Ranxi is not only strong in combat, but also proficient in formations and outstanding in weapon crafting. If her identity is not a problem, she must have a place as a guest elder."

Elder Luo nodded and said:

“I have already ordered people to investigate. She showed her identity jade token when she entered Luo Xiao Immortal City. Meng Lanjun, who is with her, is also not simple. I have asked the City Lord’s Mansion to investigate as well. We can make a decision once the results are sent.”

"Thank you for your hard work, brother."

The four then compared the three immortals who had passed the test earlier, and finally selected one whose strength was slightly inferior. They planned to politely refuse this one after Ranxi's identity was verified and it was confirmed that she would stay with the Luo family. Fortunately, the immortals who had passed the test had not yet formally signed a contract with the Luo family, so it would be easy to explain later that they had to accept that they were not as skilled as the other.

On the other side, after Yunxi and Menglanjun entered the small courtyard arranged by the Luo family, a restriction was set up. Yunxi also placed an isolation array plate before entering the open reception room in the courtyard with Menglanjun.

Menglan Jun spoke first:

"How powerful is the Luo family? Are they worth you staying here?"

Yunxi answered the other party only after she sat down:

"The Luo Liu I fought was quite skilled, but I felt it was a bit too flashy. However, it should be enough for the competition. He might suffer some losses in the early stages against the Evil Immortal, but he can handle it after adjusting."

Menglan was speechless, rubbing her temples as she said:

"Ranxi, you're here as a guest elder to improve the combat skills of the younger generation of the Luo family, not to train warriors. Take it easy."

Yunxi chuckled:
"Oh! I forgot. I got used to it back in the sect. I'll be more careful."

Menglan then changed the subject:

"I didn't hear you mention your sect before. Which sect in the Immortal Realm is it? If you are a disciple of a sect, would it be appropriate for you to come to the Luo family as a guest elder?"

Yun Xi explained:
"When I was in the Weiling Realm, I was indeed a disciple of a sect. After ascending, I was accidentally drawn into the evil immortal's plan and had no chance to join a sect."

"But things are fine as they are now. At least I'm more free, without any constraints. After participating in the Five Realms Grand Competition, I've decided to register with the Loose Immortal Alliance, at least to have a backer and be able to travel freely in the Immortal Realm."

Meng Lanjun felt that Yunxi was acting on a whim without any planning. However, given the connection between Yunxi and the Evil Immortal, he also felt that plans could not keep up with changes, so it was better to let nature take its course.

The two spent five days enjoying themselves in the Luo family's secluded courtyard, while also dividing up the Fan family's treasure trove.

On the other side, the elders of the Luo family looked at the news about Ranxi sent by the City Lord's Mansion, and their expressions became very solemn.

Luo San's mustache stood up, and he muttered to himself:

"Tsk tsk! No wonder she was able to pass through my chain formation smoothly. This Wei Yunxi is truly a fairy with both luck and strength. She took the initiative to come to the Luo family this time. We must keep her here."

Luo Erque frowned and said:
"Fairy Ranxi is indeed very lucky. Every time she confronts an evil immortal, it is the enemy who suffers. But won't this bring trouble to the Luo family?"

Elder Luo shared the same concerns. He wasn't afraid of the other party's abilities, but rather the trouble they might bring. If it was just ordinary trouble, they could handle it within their small territory of Luo Xiao Immortal City. However, if it involved the Evil Immortal, they feared it would implicate their entire family.

Luo Liu wholeheartedly agreed with his third brother's decision this time. He also noticed his eldest brother's hesitation, so he spoke up:

"It has not been easy for the Luo family to develop to where it is today, but we cannot confine our descendants to Luoxiao City. They will eventually go out to gain experience, and they will not be without the chance to encounter evil immortals."

Moreover, our ancestor had previously told us that the five Immortal Emperors intended to emulate the Weiling Realm and restore the Immortal Domain to the first level of the Divine Realm. If that's the case, then confronting the Evil Immortals is only a matter of time.

Now that Ranxi, who has extensive experience fighting against evil immortals, is helping the Luo family improve their combat power, why should we refuse? Constantly avoiding risks is not conducive to the development of the family.

I agree with inviting Fairy Ranxi to be a guest elder of the Luo family, and the terms of her employment can be further increased; otherwise, we might not be able to retain her.”

See you tomorrow, babies~
