My father is the main character, but the female leads want to kill me.

Shangguan Mengqing sneered and pushed Huang Shishi aside. Not far in front of her, the originally subtle and barely noticeable black lines suddenly stretched out to both sides.

Within the shattered spatial rift, countless barbed, dark red tentacles stretched out on both sides, and enormous, dark red eyeballs emerged from the pitch-black spatial rift, like death gods from hell.

"The Void Evil Clan!"

Shangguan Mengqing immediately realized that the Void Evil Clan actually existed in the ancient battlefield.

It wasn't just this one Void Evil Clan member; just now, several spatial rifts were immediately torn open, and a total of five or six Void Evil Clan members appeared from within the spatial rifts.

The advancing ranks suddenly became extremely chaotic, and panic quickly spread. Some people, facing the attacking tentacles, even ran into the deep pits nearby in a panic, only to be pulverized into blood mist by some inexplicable restrictive force.

When Qin Tianying, the patriarch of the Qin family, saw the appearance of the Void Evil Clan, he couldn't help but gasp. At this moment, he didn't want to scold the person leading the way for being useless. Now, they only had one thing on their minds: how to lead the Qin family out of this place.

When disaster strikes, everyone flees for their lives; like the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each displays their unique abilities.

This is certainly applicable at this moment. Anyone who has come here must have some knowledge. They naturally know the name of the Void Evil Clan and how to deal with them. However, without any means to deal with the Void Evil Clan, running away is probably the best option.

Fan Hua didn't actively display her strength to eliminate these Void Evil Clan members. She simply severed some tentacles that were about to attack, and then quickly directed the Tianshan Sword Sect members who had come with her to flee in the northeast direction, which was where she had sensed Lin Ran's location using her bracelet.

Lin Ran said he had never encountered any danger, which might be true. If Lin Ran had actually encountered any, he would definitely have told her to be careful of the Void Evil Clan inside.

Because of the advance warning and assessment, their Sword Sect and its affiliated Tianshan Sword Sect did not suffer much loss, but other forces were in dire straits.

Shangguan Mengqing turned around and saw that some of the members of the Battle Gang, an affiliated force of the War God Temple, had been caught in the tentacles of the Void Evil Clan. The sharp barbs were piercing into their flesh, and they let out miserable screams.

"Help! Help!"

"Help me! I don't want to die!"

The screams echoed across the ancient battlefield. Shangguan Mengqing watched all this indifferently before turning and leaving with her troops.

She is not a kind person, and she would never expose herself to danger to save someone unimportant.

"Junior sister, are you sure you want to go this way? What if we get lost?" Huang Shishi said with some concern.

They don't have any guides familiar with the ancient battlefields. If they rashly go to other places, wouldn't they be putting themselves in another danger?

"Isn't it dangerous to keep following the Qin family?"

Shangguan Mengqing glanced at Huang Shishi, then turned back to look at the people from the Tianshan Sword Sect. She looked at Elder Heng and asked, "Elder Heng, are you willing to believe me?"

"Of course, Young Sect Master!"

Elder Heng laughed and said, "If it weren't for the young sect master, many of us might have died in there just now."

“If you believe me, then follow me. I will lead you safely to Qianlong Mountain!” Shangguan Mengqing turned around and said firmly.

Uncle Wu, who had been watching Shangguan Mengqing and her group from somewhere, had noticed the danger early on and was wondering whether he should warn them. However, to his surprise, Shangguan Mengqing handled the situation very well, and no one in the group was injured or killed.

And she decisively and boldly changed direction. You have to understand that this ancient battlefield is not her own home, where she can go wherever she wants. This is one of the famous death zones in the former state. Being able to make this decision is enough to prove that their young sect leader has a big heart.

"I really hope she can grow up quickly and take over as sect leader!"

Uncle Wu stroked his beard, then looked back at the blood-soaked purgatory filled with the Void Evil Clan, wondering, "Why are these Void Evil Clan vanguard, the Void Hunters, appearing here? Have they always been here, or is it just recently...? It's really strange!"

……

"Ah, finally we're leaving this ancient battlefield!"

As evening approached, on a slope covered with dead trees near Qianlongshan, the children of Linghua Academy were cheering.

Because they no longer had to endure that damned spiritual pressure, and then suffer through the scorching sun that was as hot as lava as they made their way on their journey.

"Look how happy you all are!"

Lin Ran looked at Fu Yuemei and the others who were sitting scattered on the ground, and said with a smile, "I think it's quite good to take you guys there on your journey. With that spiritual pressure around, it can also train you!"

"What kind of exercise can you get from this? You'll just get a tan!"

Xiaoqian pointed to her milk-white skin and exclaimed, "Mr. Lin, look how tanned I am!"

Looking at Xiaoqian like this, and then glancing at Xiaozhuang, who was even darker than a lump of coal, Lin Ran couldn't help but laugh and say, "You're making Xiaozhuang feel even worse!"

"Ah, why?"

Xiaoqian was a little confused, but the others quickly understood what Lin Ran meant and burst into laughter.

Lin Ran walked over to Mulan, whose clothes were soaked with sweat and whose face was a little pale, handed her a bottle of pills to restore her spiritual energy, and said, "This is a personal gift from me. We'll need you for the journey to Qianlong Mountain, so don't fall ill!"

"How could this happen!"

Mulan took the pills from Lin Ran, and when she opened the bottle and smelled the fragrance, she exclaimed with some surprise, "This is so much better than what I usually buy at the pharmacy! I've never seen anything this good at an auction!"

"This was made by my woman, who is an ordinary alchemist!" Lin Ran said with a smile.

"An ordinary alchemist?"

Mulan looked at the bottle, carefully poured out a cinnabar-colored pill, and ate it. As soon as it entered her mouth, it quickly transformed into an incredibly pure spiritual energy that flowed into her dantian. This amazing effect made Mulan say with a strange expression, "Mr. Lin, you, an ordinary alchemist, are somewhat extraordinary!"

"maybe!"

Lin Ran thought to herself, "A seventh-level alchemist is considered ordinary, right? There should be alchemists of this level all over the Central Region's Heart Continent!"

Seeing Lin Ran and Mu Lan chatting and laughing, Mu Shishuang felt somewhat displeased. She walked over to Lin Ran and tugged at her sleeve. When Lin Ran turned around, she took her hand and wrote, "Can we have barbecue tonight? I want some!"

"You little glutton!"

Lin Ran pinched Mu Shishuang's cheeks, put her hands on her hips and said, "Now that we're near Qianlong Mountain, we can't let our guard down completely, but we can still have a little celebration. However, this time you'll have to learn how to grill it yourself!"

"no problem!"

Mu Shishuang replied calmly.

Anyway, she just couldn't learn it. She always burned it, and in the end, Lin Ran had to come and do it. Whether she couldn't learn it or was deliberately not able to learn it, only Mu Shishuang herself knew.

After giving the children some rest time, Lin Ran urged them to start setting up camp so they could have a small celebration that night.

But just as he was setting up the tent, Lin Ran suddenly felt a burning sensation on his wrist. When he realized it was the bracelet that was shining, he instinctively hid it. After looking around, he walked a little further into the forest.

Mu Shishuang happened to see this scene. When she saw Lin Ran acting suspiciously, she put down the hammer she was using to hammer the tent pegs and carefully followed Lin Ran over.

Upon entering the forest, Lin Ran suppressed her excitement and focused her mind on the bracelet. The next moment, she heard the voice she had longed for.

"Lin Ran..."

……

133. Shangguan Mengqing, who is very concerned about her image

Shangguan Mengqing didn't know how to start the conversation. Even though they were separated by a bracelet and hundreds of miles, they didn't seem like a couple at all; they seemed more like familiar strangers.

Seeing that Shangguan Mengqing remained silent, Lin Ran guessed that Shangguan Mengqing must have something to say to him. This fairy was always so concerned about saving face.

Lin Ran continued Shangguan Mengqing's words and said in a deep voice, "How are you doing on the ancient battlefield? Are you following the route taken by the Qin family?"

"Ok!"

Shangguan Mengqing calmly said, "We were attacked by the Void Evil Clan and have now split up."

Upon hearing Shangguan Mengqing's words, Lin Ran's heart tightened. Her right hand instinctively pounded the large tree next to her, and the trunk that took two people to encircle was pierced through by Lin Ran's flesh and blood, causing leaves to fall in a flurry.

Lin Ran ignored the falling leaves overhead and calmly replied to Shangguan Mengqing, "You can slowly walk towards me. Be extra careful of the unstable space along the way, and..."

Lin Ran shared all the experience and routes she had gained from traversing the ancient battlefield with Shangguan Mengqing in great detail.

He even considered going to find Shangguan Mengqing, but he quickly suppressed the thought with his reason. He was not alone; there was also Mu Shishuang, who had "no cultivation," and the children from Linghua Academy.

Regardless of the circumstances, as the head of this team, he must shoulder the responsibilities that come with it.

After a long silence, Shangguan Mengqing replied, "Thank you, Lin Ran!"

Lin Ran's tone held a hint of helplessness as he chuckled, "You're my woman. Do I need to thank you for our relationship? I'll wait for you here. Remember to report your progress to me on time, okay?"

"Male chauvinism!"

Shangguan Mengqing retorted calmly.

"Then let's be manly! It won't change the fact that you, Shangguan Mengqing, are my woman, Lin Ran!" Lin Ran said with great bravado. If she can't even be assertive while chatting from hundreds of miles away, how can she expect to be assertive when they meet? What's the point of being assertive between a Nirvana Realm cultivator and a Dragon Transformation Realm cultivator?

"Oh~"

Shangguan Mengqing deliberately dragged out her words, speaking calmly and meaningfully: "Then I hope that when we meet again, you will be just as heroic and spirited as I am, my little man whom I haven't seen in so long!"

Hearing Shangguan Mengqing's words, Lin Ran couldn't stand it anymore. He even thought about rushing over right now to teach Shangguan Mengqing a lesson. But with his current strength, it was really hard to say who would teach whom a lesson!

"We should be able to meet soon!"

Lin Ran rubbed the Phoenix Bracelet on his wrist. He had a reason to keep wearing it. He had taken it off for a while because it was really inconvenient, and he was afraid of accidentally damaging the bracelet. For Lin Ran, that would be a terrible sin.

The thought of soon seeing Shangguan Mengqing made Lin Ran feel a fire burning in her heart. She began to imagine scenes in her mind, and a somewhat "inappropriate" smile involuntarily appeared on her face.

"Lin Ran, what are you grinning about?"

A voice rang out behind Lin Ran, startling him. He turned around and saw that Mu Shishuang had somehow gotten behind him.

Lin Ran patted her chest, somewhat shaken, and said, "Don't you know that a sound that doesn't come from behind someone can be very frightening?"

“But you are at the Nirvana Realm, and I don’t have the strength!” Mu Shishuang retorted.

If Lin Ran wanted to find her, it would be effortless. But why didn't she find her? It means that Lin Ran was engrossed in something. What was it?

The observant Mu Shishuang quickly noticed that Lin Ran was suddenly wearing a blood-red bracelet on her left wrist, resembling blood jade and swirling with deep blue runes. She couldn't help but ask, "When did you start wearing this bracelet?"

"I've been wearing it all along, but I took it off recently. Now I'm wearing it again when I need it!" Lin Ran made up a casual excuse. He stepped forward and pushed Mu Shishuang towards the door, saying, "Is the tent set up yet? If it's not, there'll be nowhere to sleep tonight!"

“Now that you’re gone, I can’t take you anywhere by myself!” Mu Shishuang said.

"I do not believe!"

Lin Ran followed Mu Shishuang back, still murmuring, "You're having barbecue tonight. I wonder if Yue Lei still has any demon beast meat left, or if there are any demon beasts around Qianlong Mountain. If there are, getting one would be great..."

Seeing Lin Ran's reaction, Mu Shishuang didn't say much, but she kept the bracelet in mind, feeling that Lin Ran seemed to have other women besides her sister and Qianyi...

……

Although some people have already held off Qianlong Mountain, many others are still struggling in the ancient battlefield, including Shangguan Mengqing and her group.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Shangguan Mengqing did not choose to continue on her way. Instead, she led the group to a relatively safe and spacious place to set up camp and rest.

Shangguan Mengqing could take this opportunity to close her eyes and relax her tense mind. Just then, an old man wearing an old Taoist robe appeared opposite Shangguan Mengqing.

When Shangguan Mengqing looked up and saw that it was Uncle Wu, she stood up and respectfully greeted him, "Hello, Uncle Wu!"
