Versatile Mage: Lord of the Styx, but Lord of the Living

Chapter 112 Even someone with fair skin and delicate bones blushes? So attractive to women!

After gathering everyone, Lu Ran secretly used mind-based magic.

The emotional ripples effectively soothed everyone's emotions, and after receiving Bai Tingting's healing, everyone quickly returned to normal.

After a brief chat, I learned that, apart from Mu Ningxue and Qingqing, everyone else who returned early had been affected to some extent by the Bewitching Spider.

The reason why the fight broke out, besides the influence of the bewitching spider, is ultimately related to Lu Ran.

Lu Ran was stunned after hearing this.

He wasn't even there, yet he was the trigger for the brawl?
It turns out that Lu Ran's performance these past few days has been so outstanding that he has left a lasting impression on everyone.

His influence within the team is unparalleled.

They didn't miss any topic related to Lu Ran.

Not only the female students had feelings for Lu Ran, but the male students also had endless admiration for him!
Even the debate over which of Lu Ran's spells was the strongest could escalate into a heated argument.

Because of the bewitching spider's influence, the atmosphere was so tense it could explode at any moment!
The fuse was lit, and a chaotic battle ensued!
Fortunately, there were the undead that Lu Ran had summoned earlier, otherwise the situation would have been much worse.

Not long after, the Scaled Demon Mother arrived carrying the head of the Bewitching Spider and threw it heavily in the center of the church.

"This is the demon that caused the chaos; it has the ability to bewitch minds," Lu Ran explained simply.

The crowd nodded, somewhat bewildered. Many people subconsciously turned their gazes to the graceful scaly demon mother, while Zhao Manyan swallowed hard.

Zhao Manyan considered himself to have seen countless women, but he had never seen a woman with such a shapely figure and such a seductive charm!

Uh, no, it seems to be undead.
Lu Ran, who had read Zhao Manyan's mind through his mental abilities, turned pale and quickly waved his hand to get rid of the Scaled Demon Mother.

Lu Ran was genuinely afraid that Zhao Manyan might have some ill intentions towards his scaly demon mother late at night.
They then started talking about monitoring the morning's training missions.

In this training mission, the two teams worked together and completed two-thirds of the monitoring requirements in just one day!

This is how efficient Lu Ran is at summoning his army of the undead!
However, of the more than three hundred undead, nearly two hundred died, leaving only a few dozen.

Lu Ran didn't care. It was just a servant-level undead. It was dead and gone. Out with the old, in with the new.

On the contrary, the demons who died under the claws of the Styx River spirits added a little over a hundred more demons to the Styx River space.

After a day of fighting, he only lost a little over a hundred animals, so Lu Ran didn't care anymore.

Seeing that Lu Ran didn't use this as an excuse to cause trouble, Xu Dalong and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

They were genuinely afraid that Lu Ran would use the loss of the deceased as grounds for seeking compensation from them!

"By the way, when I was conducting the monitoring mission today, I sensed a lot of movement in the direction of the municipal building. Was that you who did it?" Mu Nujiao asked with some concern.

After all, they were in the wild, and even though Lu Ran was very strong, Mu Nujiao was still worried.

Lu Ran shook his head and said, "I'm fine. I just took care of four monitoring points. It just made a bit of a commotion."

Everyone was speechless.

They could hear the earth shaking from the city hall from far away, and you're telling me this is just a bit too loud?
However, considering Lu Ran's strength, there was indeed no reason to worry.
"Everyone, get some rest. Let's try to finish the monitoring mission tomorrow and return the day after!" Lu Ran said.

These words were met with immediate and widespread approval!
Originally, no one was worried about the training, because with Lu Ran as their strong support, they all fantasized that they could complete the training without even lying down and add a new experience to their resumes when they returned.

The training mission monitoring showed that Lu Ran's summoned undead were a piece of cake; all they had to do was cast spells from behind.

But tonight's strange events made everyone realize that the wilderness is not so safe after all!

There will always be times when Lu Ran isn't around!

What if he suddenly dies?

And to die at the hands of one's own people—that's even more unjust than Dou E's tragedy! The next morning.

Lu Ran summoned another batch of undead demon wolves.

As with yesterday, everyone except Lu Ran led the undead to the remaining monitoring points for reconnaissance.

Mu Ningxue hesitated, wanting to speak but stopping herself. She had originally wanted to travel with Lu Ran so that they could look out for each other.

She had already thought of a reason: both of them were captains of their respective teams, which was perfect.

But when Mu Ningxue thought about Lu Ran's strength, she felt that she might be a burden to him if she went.

Seeing the hesitation in Mu Ningxue's heart, Lu Ran joked:
"What, you're that worried about me? When we get back to the capital, I'll get you a room and you can get a proper check-up."

Upon hearing this, Mu Ningxue's face instantly turned red.

As if recalling some shameful scene, her bare arms turned quite red.

Mu Ningxue left without a word, and Lu Ran chuckled and shook his head: "She's really easy to tease."

Mu Nujiao and Bai Tingting looked at each other in bewilderment.

Bai Tingting said strangely, "Isn't Mu Ningxue supposed to have fair skin and a delicate figure? Why does her body and face turn red so easily? She seems no different from us."

Mu Nujiao: “.”

Mu Nujiao remained silent, so Bai Tingting continued to ask:

"Sister Mu, do you and Lu Ran have anything going on?"

Bai Tingting paused, then gestured with her hands for a while, drawing circles with her left hand and circles with her right hand, making a sexual gesture.

Having experienced life's ups and downs, how could Mu Nujiao not understand?
Her face flushed crimson in an instant, and she transformed into a steam girl once again, as if white mist was about to rise from her head.

It has to be admitted that Bai Tingting is the first woman who has made her blush so much.

Is this something that can be said in public?

Even Ai Tutu doesn't do that.
More importantly, Lu Ran was right next to her, and Mu Nujiao was extremely embarrassed.

Lu Ran obviously heard it too, and couldn't help but touch his old face before leaving.

Seeing Lu Ran leave tactfully, Mu Nujiao breathed a sigh of relief and gestured for Bai Tingting to be quiet.

"Tingting, let's talk about this when we get back to Shanghai. It's not very convenient in the wild," Mu Nujiao muttered softly.

Bai Tingting blinked, then exclaimed in surprise, "So, you two really did *that*!"

Bai Tingting was devastated. It was just a test, but she never expected it to turn out like this.
I didn't expect Lu Ran and Mu Nujiao to progress so quickly!
"Is this divorced man still worth my affection?" Bai Tingting wondered to herself, feeling melancholic.

Mu Nujiao was also stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized.

My own loss of composure made everything so obvious.

Her intimate relationship with Lu Ran was directly exposed by Bai Tingting.
The two women became friends after a misunderstanding, going from nodding acquaintances at family banquets in Shanghai to best friends.

Mu Nujiao also knew about Bai Tingting's feelings for Lu Ran.

Last night, because of the influence of the bewitching spider, she was very angry when Bai Tingting expressed her love for Lu Ran.

Back then, Mu Nujiao was incredibly quick to anger, whipping Bai Tingting's bottom with vines until it was 'bloated and raw.' Even now, thinking back, she still feels a pang of guilt; Bai Tingting had been complaining of a sore bottom that morning.
It seems this troublesome matter can only be resolved when I return to Shanghai.

Mu Nujiao glanced resentfully in the direction Lu Ran had left. That guy, he just had too much luck attracting women.
