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

Chapter 216 Jiang Shaoxu, just a part of the play.

Jiang Yu shook his head and said:

"Definitely not. If Lu Ran were really doing that, how could he let anyone disturb him? He would definitely find an excuse to send Jiang Shaoxu away."

After Jiang Yu finished speaking, he and Zhao Manyan both glanced at Mo Fan.

Mo Fan's lips twitched; he actually didn't want to get involved.

But to everyone's surprise, Zhao Manyan actually used a fragment of a water-type spirit seed as a wager!
Give it to him as long as Mo Fan guesses correctly!
This piece could sell for up to 500,000!

Even knowing he was a wealthy and powerful man from the Zhao family, Mo Fan couldn't help but curse him as a "spendthrift!" when he gambled 500,000 yuan at a time.

Mo Fan was worried about not being able to get money to feed his newly contracted commander-level Fire Cloud Deer, but now Zhao Manyan is giving him money.

They're determined to drag him down with them!
Zhao Manyan shrugged and said, "Money is meant to be spent, so, are you in or not?"

Mo Fan pondered for a moment, then said, "I guess Jiang Shaoxu will be able to get in!"

Zhao Manyan and Jiang Yu were puzzled, but they both widened their eyes and secretly glanced in that direction.

Jiang Shaoxu walked over leisurely, but in reality, she was in great turmoil.

Despite her glamorous and alluring appearance, she is actually a virgin.

Lu Ran's strength and heroic bearing made her want to learn more about him.

She thought she could attract him with her own charm, but she found that the women around him were all stunningly beautiful.

If things continue like this, once the trip to the Nationalist government is over, let alone getting to eat with him, it will be difficult to even have any interaction with him.

With this shy feeling, Jiang Shaoxu knocked on the door, but was bounced back by a powerful, vast space.

This was my first visit, and I was met with a rebuff. I was incredibly frustrated.

Meanwhile...
inside the house.

Lu Ran, who was working hard, trembled and paused for a moment. He subconsciously looked outside.

Through mental probing, they discovered Jiang Shaoxu standing outside the house!

Mu Nujiao, panting heavily beneath him, noticed Lu Ran had stopped and clung to him like an octopus, murmuring as she breathed:
"What's wrong? You can't handle it anymore? This isn't like you. Is Mu Ningxue too tempting, leaving you exhausted?"

Lu Ran's lips twitched as he glanced at Mu Ningxue, who was lying defeated on the headboard with only her buttocks slightly raised.

Her silver hair was a mess, covering her neck and most of her snow-white shoulders.

She was drenched in sweat, having been thoroughly exhausted and unconscious.

At this moment, she was already lost in thought, unaware of the torment she had endured.
"Hmm? Is someone outside?" The perceptive Mu Nujiao quickly noticed something amiss with Lu Ran.

Sure enough, she used her mental energy to probe slightly and found Jiang Shaoxu anxiously waiting for Lu Ran to open the door.

"hiss!"

Lu Ran frowned, patted Mu Nujiao, and said irritably, "There's someone standing outside, what are you so excited about? Trying to suck your husband dry?!"

Mu Nujiao's face flushed slightly as she noticed the unusual sensation in her body.

However, she immediately seized the opportunity, turning Lu Ran's face towards her with a hint of amusement, staring into his deep eyes, and questioning him:

"Tell me, when did you start hooking up with that Jiang Shaoxu? I had no idea!"

"Hi~!"

Lu Ran, beaming with delight, sighed and said, "What hookup? The first time we met was when the Imperial National Team was gathering in the capital. You were there too, and we barely exchanged a few words."

Mu Nujiao gave a soft snort and said resentfully:

"Well, it seems you really are charming; you've attracted people all at once."

Ask her what she wants to do?

Lu Ran's lips twitched. Looking at the intensely inquisitive expression on Mu Nujiao's face beneath him, he knew this girl wanted to watch the show! Jiang Shaoxu stood outside the door, carrying two bottles of wine. What else could she want from him?

However, noticing the abnormality in his body, Lu Ran, after much deliberation, took a deep breath and prepared to speak.

Outside the door, Jiang Shaoxu, who had been waiting for a long time without getting what she wanted, was stunned. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, she suddenly heard Lu Ran's voice.

"Miss Jiang? I'm currently 'cultivating' and have just entered a state of deep meditation. I haven't come out of it yet. What do you need me for?"

Jiang Shaoxu felt a pang of guilt. Just as Zhao Manyan had said, Lu Ran was indeed cultivating.

There's been no response for so long; he must have been deeply engrossed in his meditation. I'm truly sorry for disturbing him and forcing him to pull himself out of his deep meditation.
Jiang Shaoxu tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, a shy expression on her face, and asked somewhat nervously:
"It's nothing serious, it's just...it's a long way, and I was thinking of calling you, Captain, to have a drink together. Are you free?"

"hiss!"

Jiang Shaoxu: "?"

"Oh, I'm free, but you might have to wait a few minutes."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you over there."

Before Jiang Shaoxu could finish speaking, she heard a series of stumbling and clattering sounds coming from the room. Although it only lasted for a moment, she still caught it.

"Ah, it's nothing, there was a bug, I swatted it."

"Ah, oh"

inside the room.

Lu Ran tightly covered Mu Nujiao's tender red lips with both hands. After a long while, Mu Nujiao could hardly breathe, and then she suddenly broke free.

"Am I an insect? You want to swat me to death?"

Mu Nujiao clung to her again, her voice icy, questioning her like a queen.

But her behavior had nothing to do with being cold or queenly.

Lu Ran lay on the bed, looking up at Mu Nujiao who was looking down at him, feeling utterly exhausted.

They really know how to have fun!
Jiang Shaoxu's arrival miraculously brought Mu Nujiao back to life.

From the original "I'm tired, I'll do it next time," it has evolved directly to "I'm not allowed to move!"

Another five minutes passed.

Lu Ran dressed and walked out of the room.

In the distance, Mo Fan looked regretful.

Holy crap, 500,000 just vanished like that!
Jiang Yu regretted not placing a bet earlier; otherwise, he would probably have won big.

"Shall we go over there?" Jiang Yu asked.

Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan turned and left without a second thought. Zhao Manyan said:
"Go if you want, but don't let Ran-ge know that I was the one who pointed out the way to Jiang Shaoxu."

The two strolled around on the spacious cruise ship.

Meanwhile, Lu Ran and Jiang Shaoxu were drinking red wine.

Under Jiang Shaoxu's expectant gaze, Lu Ran went along with her wishes and chatted for a while about the life experiences she wanted to know.

"I've heard so much about you back in China. Your story is truly legendary!" Jiang Shaoxu's eyes glazed over as she listened.

Lu Ran blinked, secretly comparing Jiang Shaoxu and Asha Ruya.

Both of them are very alluring, and to outsiders they are both vixens, but Jiang Shaoxu is obviously still a bit naive compared to Asha Ruya!

"But this trip is getting more and more interesting."

He only shared a small part of his life experiences, and immediately gained a little fan.

Under Jiang Shaoxu's envious and admiring gaze, Lu Ran began to talk eloquently about how he became a councilor in three places.
