With things having come to this point, Qin Ran and the others had no choice but to leave the Martial Arts Association.

After they left, An Yongchen and Feng Tianya finally breathed a sigh of relief.

These people were not afraid of Qin Ran and Fu Xueru.

What they truly fear is Zhou Zhenshan.

They had all seen what had just happened.

It was clearly Zhou Zhenshan who killed Gu Yinqi and the others without them even realizing it.

He even killed Zhou Xin.

However, this is the best option.

Once Zhou Xin or Gu Yinqi are coerced into revealing that Zhou Zhenshan is the mastermind behind it all.

Zhou Zhenshan's status will inevitably be affected.

After all, there are people from the military region here.

They stood up for Qin Ran.

Given Qin Ran's personality, he would lead the military region's men to fight Zhou Zhenshan to the bitter end.

Fortunately, Zhou Zhenshan was clever and killed the three people who knew the truth.

Now Qin Ran has no way to prove anything.

An Yongchen and Feng Tianya still felt a chill when they thought about it.

Fortunately, they were not implicated.

Qin Ran has now been dismissed from his post.

The storm has now subsided.

However, given Zhou Zhenshan's temper, he definitely won't let Qin Ran off the hook.

……

On the other end.

Qin Ran and Fu Xueru also returned home.

He was very unwilling.

He sat on the sofa without saying a word.

"What's wrong with you? Are you feeling resentful?"

Qin Ran looked at Fu Xueru: "Senior sister, I should have listened to you before. Before Zhou Zhenshan came to the Martial Arts Association, I should have coerced Gu Yinqi or Zhou Xin to say that Zhou Zhenshan was the mastermind, and then recorded the conversation."

Fu Xueru sat down next to Qin Ran: "You didn't expect things to turn out like that back then. Besides, even if you did that, it might not have worked. Zhou Zhenshan could still kill Gu Yinqi and the others, and then say that your recording was fake, or that you coerced and beat them so they had no choice but to say that."

Qin Ran's expression was complicated: "That old fox Zhou Zhenshan is too cunning. He killed Gu Yinqi and the others without them even realizing it."

"This also shows that the old man's cultivation level is very high, a realm that ordinary people cannot reach."

"I could tell he was a Martial Emperor when I fought him."

Are you sure?

"Are you sure? I've fought with a Martial Venerable before, and his cultivation level is clearly higher than a Martial Venerable's. That means he's a Martial Emperor."

Fu Xueru frowned: "Martial Emperor? That sounds terrifying."

"The Martial Emperor is already at the pinnacle of martial arts; there probably isn't another one like him in the entire Dragon Kingdom."

"If you had fought him just now, were you confident you could have won?"

Qin Ran did not answer decisively, but fell into deep thought.

I remember the last time I fought against the Martial Venerable.

The dragon retains its original color.

At that time, he was no match for the Martial Venerable.

Qin Ran thought he was going to fail that time.

At the critical moment, the dragon turned blue.

It was around that time that he mastered the first part of the Nine Revolutions Divine Dragon Technique with the help of Su Qingyi.

The dragon has now turned crimson red.

He also mastered the second part of the Nine Revolutions Divine Dragon Technique.

If he were to fight a Martial Emperor with his current cultivation level, he would be...

Qin Ran snapped out of her thoughts and looked at Fu Xueru: "I can't guarantee 100% that I can beat him, but I'm confident in myself that I can at least draw."

"That's right. It seems I was right to stop you before. Since you're not 100% sure, don't act rashly. Once you've mastered the third part of the Nine Revolutions Divine Dragon Technique, it should be about time."

Qin Ran nodded repeatedly: "You're right. Once I master the third part, I will definitely be able to destroy the Martial Emperor."

"So we need to hurry. You also need to be careful during this time. Zhou Zhenshan won't let you off easily; he will definitely make a move in the dark."

"Okay, I'll be careful."

"Let's go upstairs and get some business done."

After Fu Xueru finished speaking, she got up and went upstairs.

Qin Ran followed.

At this moment, he felt a strange excitement.

He could have intercourse with Fu Xueru again.

The two fought for a long time before finally ending the battle.

After finishing, Qin Ran returned to his room to continue his cultivation.

As one delves deeper into the practice, the difficulty of cultivation increases.

During the process, Qin Ran felt a mysterious force tearing at his body.

This caused him to be drenched in sweat.

This process will take some time, and he will gradually calm down.

Moreover, during cultivation, Qin Ran's spiritual power would unknowingly enter the Dragon Altar.

After an unknown amount of time, Qin Ran opened his eyes.

It was already daylight.

He got up and went to the balcony, letting out a soft breath.

The sweaty clothes have dried.

But I felt sticky all over.

Qin Ran also noticed some black impurities on his body.

He stood on the balcony for a while, took a shower, and then went downstairs.

Fu Xueru had already prepared breakfast.

"It's all done."

"My senior sister made breakfast for me personally. I'm so lucky."

The two ate and chatted.

After breakfast, Qin Ran took Fu Xueru to the resort.

Several tens of minutes later, they arrived at their destination.

"Senior sister, this is it."

Fu Xueru looked around: "This entire resort is yours?"

"Yes, I'll show you around."

The two strolled around the resort.

Qin Ran suddenly remembered that it was the weekend and Su Qingyi should be at the resort.

"Senior Sister, I'll call Third Sister; she lives here."

"Great, I haven't seen her in ages either."

Qin Ran took out his phone and dialed Su Qingyi's number.

"Hello!"

"Third Senior Sister, are you at the resort?" Qin Ran asked.

"Yes, is there something you need?"

"Our senior sister is here. We want to see you."

Su Qingyi was silent for a moment, then asked, "Fu Xueru is here too?"

"right."

"Where are you? I'm coming to find you."

"We're in the lounge area," Qin Ran said.

"I'm coming right away."

A dozen minutes later, Su Qingyi arrived.

Fu Xueru looked at her.

She also looked at Fu Xueru.

"Senior sister, it's been a long time."

"Junior sister is still as beautiful as ever."

Su Qingyi laughed and said, "I'm nowhere near as good as you. I heard you've become a female war goddess now?"

"Yes, it was just a coincidence."

"As expected of the senior sister of Cangyun Pavilion, she did not disappoint Master."

The two then sat down and started chatting.

They talked a lot about the past.

Qin Ran listened from the side, but couldn't get a word in edgewise.

Meanwhile, he asked Xu Wei to prepare lunch, as they would be staying for lunch.

Xu Wei immediately went to prepare.

Qin Ran wanted to invite Zhu Jiahe as well, so that everyone could get together.

However, she refused, citing feeling unwell.

Qin Ran had no choice but to give up.

"Second Senior Sister said she's not feeling well and won't be coming."

Su Qingyi sneered: "That's just how she is, she doesn't fit in. She was the same way back in Kunlun Mountain, if she didn't want to come, she didn't care."

Fu Xueru said, "Since she doesn't want to come, then forget it. Let's just have the three of us get together."

Qin Ran nodded and didn't say anything more.

Su Qingyi then looked at Qin Ran: "Junior Brother, I heard you became the president of the Xijing Martial Arts Association. Congratulations!"

"You heard it from Gu Xinrou, right?"

"Yeah, you didn't even tell me this good news. Looks like you don't consider me one of your own," Su Qingyi said, pouting.

Qin Ran explained, "I wanted to wait until I was comfortable before telling you, but before I could even settle in, I was dismissed."

"He was dismissed?"

"Yes, I discovered that the Martial Arts Association was colluding with those underground martial arts organizations, and then I was dismissed from my post."

"With your temper, can you tolerate this?" Su Qingyi retorted.

Qin Ran told Su Qingyi about what had happened in the past two days.

Su Qingyi's expression was somewhat strange.

So much has happened in just two days.

"Don't be discouraged. At least you've dealt with those underground criminal gangs, which is a blessing for the people of Xijing."

Qin Ran sighed, "It's a pity that the mastermind behind this didn't receive the punishment he deserved. I still feel uneasy about it."

"No rush, take your time. I believe in your abilities."

Fu Xueru chimed in, "Haste makes waste; some things can't be rushed."
