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

Chapter 119 He's the real devil! Interacting as peers
On the spot, all that remained were his tattered magical artifacts and tools, which Lu Ran had deliberately left behind, otherwise the power of the Styx River could have annihilated Lu Nian completely.

These valuable items were confiscated.

Lu Ran played with Lu Nian's spatial artifact, continuing to explore it with his mental energy.

After scanning through countless resources, Lu Ran quickly found a blood-red droplet stored in a special container.

The blood was crystal clear, bright red, and alluring.

Even through the vessel, Lu Ran could feel the intense blood energy within.

"Is this the Blood Elixir?" Lu Ran murmured.

To be honest, he doesn't need this. Although using it would grant him demonic power, it would also cause him to lose a level.

Moreover, they will turn into something that is neither human nor ghost.

However, it's always better to be prepared.

Even though he doesn't use it, he still wants to keep it.

I can do without it, but I can't live without it!
Lu Ran searched through the spatial artifact for a while and found only one Blood Sharp Coin, which was quite pitiful.

"You came to conduct demonic experiments and only brought one Bloodstone?" Lu Ran narrowed his eyes, shook his head, and said to himself:

"No, besides me, Mo Fan is also their target. There should be another one there. Is it with the advisor there?"

After dealing with Lu Nian, Lu Ran returned directly.

the other side.

"Mo Fan, what should we do with these people? Should we just tie them up here?" Zhao Manyan asked.

Zhao Manyan and Mo Fan worked together to tie up Staff Officer Jiang Yi and others.

Mo Fan shook his head and said, "Let's wait until Ran-ge comes back. Didn't you say these guys are still useful?"

Zhao Manyan nodded, his gaze lingering on Jiang Yi, and he smiled with narrowed eyes, saying:

"I must say, this woman has a pretty good figure, quite well-endowed."

Faced with Zhao Manyan's teasing, Jiang Yi kept her eyes tightly closed and remained silent.

Now she's a prisoner, and her boss was beaten so badly by that freak Lu Ran that he fled in disarray. It's all so ridiculous.

Before coming here, who would have thought it would end like this?
Does a prodigy like Lu Ran really need to undergo demonic experiments?
No experiment is needed; he is the devil!

Mo Fan was speechless after hearing Zhao Manyan's words. "You've already started talking nonsense while we're just tying each other up?"

Mu Nujiao walked over and overheard their incoherent conversation. Her eyebrows furrowed, and she said in a cold voice:
"Where are their spatial magical artifacts?"

Zhao Manyan and Mo Fan exchanged a glance, not daring to provoke them, and readily handed over the goods.

After all, she's Lu Ran's woman!

They are not to be trifled with.

"You didn't take anything from inside, did you?" Mu Nujiao asked again.

Zhao Manyan waved his hand: "Hey, I'm a young master of the Zhao family, I don't need to do such petty things, do I?"

Mu Nujiao nodded and said, "Keep an eye on them. Lu Ran probably wants to keep them as bargaining chips and evidence."

Mo Fan originally wanted to ask about Lu Nian, but Mu Nujiao was also clueless and couldn't give an answer.

Not long after Jiang Yi was tied up, Zhan Kong arrived!

Zhan Kong's wind wings flapped rapidly behind him, and he flew swiftly, landing quickly beside Mo Fan.

Seeing that Mo Fan was alright, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Chief Instructor, what brings you here?" Mo Fan asked in surprise.

Zhan Kong nodded in acknowledgment, but did not answer. He pressed on, asking:

"Where is Lu Nian? And Lu Ran? Why isn't he here? Could he have been kidnapped by Lu Nian? Which direction did they go?" Zhan Kong scanned the area but couldn't find Lu Ran.

Mo Fan's lips twitched, and he thought to himself:

Lu Ran was kidnapped by Lu Nian? Are you kidding me!
Head Instructor, you didn't see how Lu Nian was beaten up just now!
That battle was so exhilarating!
Mo Fan stepped aside, gesturing for Zhan Kong to look. Behind Mo Fan were none other than the staff officer Jiang Yi and others, all bound hand and foot!

Because Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan were blocking him, Zhan Kong hadn't really noticed.

Seeing this, Zhan Kong was stunned for a moment and asked, "What's going on?"

Mu Ningxue walked over slowly and briefly explained what had just happened.

Zhan Kong froze, silent, the sound deafening.

What did he hear? And what did he miss?
Lu Ran, a student who had just entered the advanced level, defeated Lu Nian, a member of the Military Intelligence Bureau who had been cultivating at the advanced level for many years, and made him flee in disarray.

After a moment of stunned silence, Lu Ran transformed into a bolt of lightning and quickly returned.

Upon seeing Lu Ran appear, Mu Ningxue and Mu Nujiao went to greet him together.

"Lu Ran, are you alright?" the two women asked in unison, then glanced at each other silently.

Lu Ran smiled and shook his head: "It's alright, he can't hurt me."

Hearing this, Zhan Kong felt even more aggrieved.

Even Lu Nian couldn't do anything to Lu Ran.

Keep in mind that even he is probably no match for Lu Nian!

In other words, he wasn't even a match for Lu Ran in a single move?!

A thought flashed through Zhan Kong's mind in an instant.

The young genius who came from Bocheng in front of him was already able to overpower him!
Upon seeing Zhan Kong again, Lu Ran was not too surprised and greeted him politely, "Zhan Kong, it's been a long time."

Back in Bo City, Lu Ran had to respectfully address the head instructor as "Chief Instructor" and "Senior," as his cultivation level was far inferior to Zhan Kong's at that time.

In this world, magic reigns supreme, and those who master it are put to the highest order.

Now that Lu Ran can suppress Zhan Kong, they can naturally be on equal footing.

Zhan Kong remained silent for half a second, then slowly nodded in response.

Honestly, I can't accept it!

I have a feeling that I've spent most of my life cultivating myself as a dog.

He was, after all, a former member of the National Team!
After a moment of depression, Zhan Kong asked sternly, "Where is Lu Ran? Lu Nianren? His crimes are unforgivable. I must arrest him and bring him to justice, and hand him over to the Military Head Court for review!"

Lu Ran glanced at Zhan Kong and said calmly:

"died."

Zhan Kong raised an eyebrow, his expression changed, and he repeated, "Dead?! You killed him?!"

“Yes, Lu Nian did indeed die at my hands. I found some evidence on him, and with these people on top of that, it’s enough!” Lu Ran said.

Zhan Kong was shocked once again.

He was having some difficulty breathing, and his gaze toward Lu Ran kept changing.

Lu Ran killed Lu Nian and now looks relaxed and carefree. Does this mean that Lu Nian was not worth his full effort?

In other words, Lu Ran could also kill him with the same ease?

That's terrifying, truly monstrous.
Throughout the return journey, Zhan Kong remained mostly silent, appearing quite melancholy.

Mo Fan knew that Zhan Kong was upset, so he didn't bother him.

Mu Nujiao had already handed over the spatial artifacts of Jiang Yi and the others to Lu Ran, and Lu Ran scanned them with his spiritual power and indeed found another drop of blood essence in one of the spatial rings.

Lu Ran looked at Mu Nujiao and Mu Ningxue, and took out three of their spatial rings:

"These confiscated resources, one space ring for each of you, consider it compensation. Any extra rings, share them with the rest of the team, just as a token."

These military mages, whose cultivation level is at the mid-level three, have a net worth of at least several million. Even if it is averaged out to each individual, it is still a considerable income.
