You were made to take the blame and go to jail, but you weren't made a master of both medicine

Qin Ran believed that Ji Ruyan was seriously injured and couldn't have run far.

He immediately gave chase.

However, Qin Ran searched all around but could not find any trace of Ji Ruyan.

She vanished without a trace.

Qin Ran was not familiar with the terrain here.

After much consideration, he returned to the place he had been staying in.

At this moment, Tang Da was waiting in the same spot.

Upon seeing Qin Ran return, he hurriedly went to greet him.

"Mr. Qin, have you caught up with the Lord of the Yama Palace yet?"

Qin Ran sighed, "She got away. I'm not familiar with this area, and she can easily hide in any nook or cranny. It'll be hard for me to find her. After thinking it over, I decided to come back first."

"She was so badly injured, even if you didn't kill her yourself, she probably wouldn't have lived much longer."

"Pretty much. Anyway, I've destroyed the Chaos Demon Stone. Without energy replenishment, she certainly won't live for long, but that's not necessarily true. Let's go check inside the Yama Palace first."

Qin Ran leaped onto the cliff.

He entered the Palace of Yama.

Tang Da followed closely behind.

The two remained on guard the entire way.

It was empty inside, there was nothing there.

It seems that the Yama Palace only has the Palace Master and two protectors.

Qin Ran and Tang Da walked around inside.

We found nothing.

Qin Ran had been hoping to find some kind of magical treasure.

But it wasn't found.

The main hall was completely empty.

However, Qin Ran noticed a pool above the main hall.

The water in the pool was very clear.

Seeing this pool, Qin Ran thought of Nangong Ze again.

The scene at the cocktail party previously held by the Black Emperor Consortium.

Qin Ran and Nangong Ze fought a great battle.

At that time, Nangong Ze threw a bloodstone into the pool.

Meanwhile, the clear water in the pool turned into blood.

Then he continuously absorbed the energy from the blood pool.

At that time, Nangong Ze kept shouting, "Lord Blood Demon, please grant me unlimited energy."

Qin Ran guessed that the pool was also used to generate energy.

However, things have changed drastically since then.

The master of the Yama Palace was seriously injured and fled.

Her two protectors also died.

I'm afraid no one can awaken the evil power within this pool.

"Mr. Qin, why don't we destroy the Yama Palace and make it disappear from the martial arts world completely?"

"I think the same way as you, let's do it!"

Qin Ran silently chanted the incantation and unleashed the Spirit Purple Flame.

The palace of Yama was instantly engulfed in flames.

Seeing that the fire was getting bigger and bigger, Qin Ran and Tang Da left.

They stood in the canyon, watching thick smoke billow out of the entrance.

Qin Ran was extremely pleased with himself.

Your stronghold has been destroyed.

Even if you manage to survive, you'll have nowhere to go.

However, Qin Ran still felt a little regretful that he hadn't killed Ji Ruyan with his own hands.

"After you get back, send someone to secretly investigate and see if the Lord of Yama Palace is really dead or not," Qin Ran said to Tang Da.

"Understood, I will send someone to investigate when I get back."

Qin Ran didn't say anything more, and the two left together.

Once they reached the foot of the mountain, Tang Da drove back to the city.

Once they arrived in the city, the two returned to their hotel.

Qin Ran began to recall the battle.

Although he won, it was a narrow victory.

At the last moment, the Demon-Slaying Blade came in handy.

If it weren't for the Demon-Slaying Blade, Qin Ran wouldn't have been confident of defeating Ji Ruyan tonight.

That Chaos Demon Stone is truly amazing.

The demonic path relies on it for cultivation.

This shows that there is more than one Chaos Demon Stone.

Qin Ran had no idea how many of these energy stones there were.

Tonight's battle allowed him to witness the power of the demonic path once again.

The road ahead is still long.

We must not let our guard down.

What Qin Ran needs to do now is to use Zhu Jiahe to quickly master the second part of the Nine Revolutions Divine Dragon Technique.

……

The next day.

Qin Ran and Tang Da boarded a plane to return to Xi'an.

Tang Da bought an economy class seat.

The environment here is relatively noisy.

Qin Ran leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to rest.

At that moment, the conversation between the two girls in front of him caught his attention.

These two girls are recent graduates.

They wanted to apply for a job at the Black Emperor Consortium.

But I'm also worried that I won't be accepted.

Their plan was to find a temporary foothold in Xijing.

Then I submitted my resume to the Black Emperor Consortium.

If I fail, I'll look for other jobs in Xijing.

Qin Ran listened to their conversation but didn't say anything.

He didn't know the two girls and saw no need to help them.

Besides, he's already put enough people into the Black Emperor Consortium.

If another arrangement is made, Gu Xinrou will have objections.

"Excuse me, gentlemen, I overheard you discussing whether you want to work for the Black Emperor Consortium?" The man with glasses asked.

"Yes, is there anything I can help you with?" the short-haired girl asked.

"Let me introduce myself. I am Guo Yuan, the human resources manager of the Black Emperor Group. This is my business card." Guo Yuan took out his business card.

The short-haired girl took it and looked at it.

The girl with big, wavy hair next to her also came over.

The two were overjoyed when they saw the business card.

This means you've met a helpful person on your journey.

"Hello Manager Guo, it's a pleasure to meet you," the short-haired woman greeted with a smile.

"Our group is currently training a group of excellent live streamers. I think you two have great looks. If you are interested, you can give it a try."

"Become a live streamer!"

"Yes, don't feel pressured. We have dedicated trainers there. Once you join the company, you'll undergo systematic training. Our group also provides accommodation and a wide range of benefits. If you're interested, we can exchange contact information," Guo Yuan said with a smile.

The two girls did not rush to answer after hearing this.

They wanted to work for the Black Emperor Consortium.

But I never intended to become a live streamer.

That needs to be considered.

At the same time, Qin Ran also frowned.

The Black Emperor Consortium's main business is investment.

What do they train broadcasters for?

However, it's not entirely unnecessary.

Maybe Gu Xinrou is working on some new plans lately.

Guo Yuan also told the two girls to go to the Black Emperor Consortium for an interview.

There shouldn't be any problems.

At this moment, the short-haired woman spoke up: "Manager Guo, we just discussed it, and this is a good opportunity. We're willing to give it a try."

"Okay, let's exchange contact information. Tomorrow is the weekend, and the day after tomorrow at nine o'clock, you'll be going to the group for the interview."

The short-haired girl immediately agreed.

They then exchanged contact information.

Qin Ran silently wrote down the short-haired girl's number.

Before we knew it, the plane landed at Xi'an Airport.

Qin Ran and Tang Da parted ways after getting off the plane.

Qin Ran returned to No. 1 Jinshui Bay.

Upon entering, I found the two Zhu sisters chatting in the living room.

When they saw Qin Ran return, they all turned their gazes toward him.

"Junior brother, you're back so soon!"

"Yes, things went relatively smoothly, so I came back quite early," Qin Ran said with a smile.

"Ran-ge, come and sit down." Zhu Xiaoya hurriedly greeted him.

Zhu Jiahe continued, "You destroyed the Yama Palace?"

"I guess so. I burned down their lair, and I also killed the two protectors of the Yama Palace Master. I severely injured the Palace Master, but she escaped, and I couldn't find her," Qin Ran said seriously.

"You're amazing! No wonder you're my junior brother," Zhu Jiahe praised.

"Overall, I am quite satisfied with this operation. The only regret is that I was unable to kill the Lord of Yama Palace with my own hands. I have already sent my men to secretly search for the Lord of Yama Palace to see if we can find him."

Zhu Jiahe nodded repeatedly: "That's good. By the way, have you had lunch?"

"I ate on the plane."

"That's good. I'm a little tired. Come upstairs with me."

Upon hearing this, Qin Ran immediately sat up straight: "Now?"

"Yes, is there a problem?"

"No, I'd love to, hehehe."

"Let's go."

Zhu Jia got up and went upstairs.

Qin Ran followed behind.

He was looking forward to it.

I can finally get my second senior sister...
