Chapter 562

Eight days later, good news came from Fuyao Island.

Xue Fengchen had come out of seclusion!

He walked out of the seclusion room with the majestic momentum unique to a Sea Realm powerhouse.

After Xue Fengchen communicated and thanked the elite guards on the island, cheers rang out one after another.

The members of the Thousand Boat Alliance, especially the believers of the Bihe faction, naturally had no doubt about their favor for the Ran Sect, not to mention that this was a Sea Realm powerhouse, so the guards were naturally willing to offer congratulations.

The Evil Shadow Protector discovered the situation immediately and went to investigate.

It happened to be midnight, and under the guidance of the Evil Shadow, Xue Fengchen came to the northern island and found Lu Ran, who was on duty there.

Lu Ran was extremely happy!

"Good, good, good, good!" Lu Ran stepped forward and gave Xue Fengchen a big hug.

Such an action made Xue Fengchen quite surprised.

Lu Ran was indeed easy-going and valued the Great Phoenix of the Western Wilderness very much, but the Lu Zongzhu had never been so intimate before.

How could Xue Fengchen know that for these days, Lu Ran had been mentally tense.

Although the Ran Sect had caused heavy damage to Mount Jingting, given the general temperament of the Eastern Thunder disciples, who could guarantee that there wouldn't be someone who couldn't swallow this breath, and what if someone wanted to act secretly and come to sneak an attack?

As the saying goes: there is only a thousand days to catch a thief, how can there be a thousand days to guard against a thief?

No matter how cautious everyone was, it was inevitable to have a slip-up.

Now it's fine!

Feng'er had succeeded, and the stone in Lu Ran's heart had finally fallen to the ground.

He could also stop rotating shifts and go back to his room to cultivate diligently.

"Lu Zongzhu..." Xue Fengchen felt Lu Ran's joy from the bottom of his heart, and there was also a touch of emotion in his heart.

"I have a task for you!" Lu Ran handed over the Purple Thunder Wild Dragon Halberd, "This is the divine weapon of the Lu Zongzhu of Mount Jingting, and it has been stained with some of Lu Xiao's habits.

Proud to the extreme, refusing to submit even in death.

I just won't let it get its way! From today on, you control it firmly for me."

Isn't this just taming a hawk?

Just tame it~

And the process of taming is also beneficial for Xue Fengchen to consolidate his state of mind, so why not do it?

"Yes!" Xue Fengchen stretched out his big hand, groped in the darkness for a moment, and gripped the divine weapon halberd tightly.

【Evil Shadow, notify Mr. Conglong and Island Master He, you can withdraw.】

As the voice transmission fell, Lu Ran patted Xue Fengchen on the shoulder: "Let's go, let's go back."

That night, Lu Ran was immersed in the joy of gaining a God General and cultivated diligently all night.

Speaking of which, the divine power brought by Alliance Leader Yun's advancement was terrifyingly thick!

In such an environment, Lu Ran was very sure that his advancement time would be significantly advanced!

The next morning, the various island masters of the Thousand Boat Alliance visited in person or sent people to congratulate him. Lu Ran naturally treated them politely, and after sending off batch after batch of people, he quickly entered the mode of dedicated cultivation.

No one knew when Alliance Leader Yun Qianzhou would be able to successfully advance.

Everyone in Misty Rain Lake was crazily taking advantage of the benefits and cultivating hard.

Days passed by, and in the blink of an eye, it was the twelfth day of the winter month.

This was the twenty-second day of Alliance Leader Yun Qianzhou's advancement!

It was also the first day of Lu Ran's advancement!

He, at the fourth stage of the River Realm, finally broke through the cultivation bottleneck under the terrifying blessings of Alliance Leader Yun, and grandly opened the advancement mode!

Lu Ran didn't go to the seclusion room under Fuyao Island, but broke through on the spot in the wooden house.

Although he was advancing to the peak of the River Realm, in essence, it was still a small stage breakthrough within the great realm.

In other words, Lu Ran couldn't even attract a fog tornado.

It was very lacking in prestige~

And the fog attracted by Lu Ran...

What?

Did Lu Ran attract fog? Where?

Oh, it turns out it was completely covered by the fog summoned by Alliance Leader Yun...

After just three days, Lu Ran had succeeded!

At that time, Alliance Leader Yun was still in the process of advancing.

Poor little River Realm minion.

Silent when in seclusion, and no movement when coming out...

Of course, for the generals of the Ran Sect, the movement of the Lu Zongzhu's advancement was very big!

"Hoo!!"

In the empty room in the wooden house, a violent wind wave spread out.

Lu Ran sat cross-legged, hugging little Chifeng tightly, for fear that it would be blown away.

"Buzz~"

The Chifeng Pattern Gourd vibrated gently, and the golden phoenix pattern on it flashed, which was very beautiful.

"Ha!" Lu Ran held little Chifeng with both hands and threw it up, "Peak!!"

The Chifeng Pattern Gourd was thrown into the sky, and before hitting the roof, it hovered steadily.

"Buzz~" Little Chifeng seemed to like this game very much and fell down quickly.

The chubby treasure gourd stuck to Lu Ran's palm again, constantly twisting and rubbing against Lu Ran's palm.

Seemed like it still wanted to play?

"Only know how to play, did you learn how to eat living people properly?" Lu Ran patted the chubby gourd.

The Chifeng Pattern Gourd froze immediately.

The golden phoenix pattern stopped flashing and slowly slid down from Lu Ran's palm.

"Alright, let's play one more time." Lu Ran smiled helplessly.

Just spoil it~

It's my own big treasure, what else can I do?

Lu Ran held the treasure gourd with both hands and threw it up again.

ヽ(°▽°)ノ

"Hoo~"

Little Chifeng swayed left and right happily, until it hit the ceiling of the wooden house, and then fell down contentedly.

Lu Ran stood up, caught the treasure gourd steadily, and walked towards the outside of the house.

His senses were extremely sharp, and he knew there were many people in the hall.

Sure enough, just as Lu Ran pushed open the door, voices of congratulations came over.

"Congratulations to the Lu Zongzhu for advancing to the peak!"

"Congratulations to the Lu Zongzhu!"

"Congratulations to all." Lu Ran smiled and said, "Everyone go back and cultivate, the opportunity is rare, not a single second can be delayed."

These words were a bit guilty.

Although a group of generals were waiting in the hall, no one delayed their cultivation.

However, everyone was very sensible and quickly said goodbye and left, giving the Lu Zongzhu and his wife private space.

As everyone left, Lu Ran immediately stepped forward a few steps and took Jiang Xianzi into his arms.

"Hmm." Jiang Ruyi tilted her head back slightly.

The corners of her lips curled up slightly, with a charming smile on her face, one hand passing through the thick fog, gently tidying his hair:

"In one go, advance to the Sea Realm?"

"Hmm, I'm working hard." Lu Ran found Jiang Xianzi's thin lips, kissed them shallowly, and said vaguely, "Girlfriend, give me some inspiration."

"You person..." Jiang Ruyi's cheeks flushed, and her reproachful words were also vague.

Lu Ran had just advanced and was in high spirits and full of momentum.

The familiar aura exclusive to him stirred Jiang Ruyi's heart, which was like a calm lake.

Jiang Xianzi's body gradually softened, and her beautiful eyes became increasingly blurred...

But for some reason, Lu Ran suddenly raised his head, as if sensing something.

Jiang Ruyi came back to her senses and asked softly: "What's wrong?"

Lu Ran frowned slightly: "The fog seems to have thinned a bit?"

"Hmm?" Jiang Ruyi faced Lu Ran.

1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds...

Gradually, she saw the young man in the fog clearly.

As time passed, that heroic face became clearer, and the light in his eyes had not yet dissipated, carrying a trace of sacred aura.

Lu Ran's heart moved: "Alliance Leader Yun succeeded in advancing?"

Jiang Ruyi said softly: "Should be."

"Let's go, let's go see." Lu Ran took her and walked towards the outside of the house.

"Hoo~" In the private courtyard, Jiang Ruyi waved her hand, and the golden jade eight talismans spread out.

As her mind moved, a palm-sized golden jade stone talisman expanded to a one-meter specification, carrying the two of them and flying straight up.

Sweeping past the lush branches, the two stood on the treetops.

At this time, in this heaven and earth of Misty Rain Lake, the white fog was dissipating at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Other islands also noticed this situation, and sounds of excitement and joy came from everywhere.

As the fog dissipated, the sky-net canopy, lotus petals, and green lotus leaves in the sky also shattered one by one, revealing the sky covered by dark clouds.

"Splatter~"

A drizzling rain fell.

The sky was gloomy, which should have made people feel depressed.

But this is the Thousand Boat Archipelago, and this beautiful picture scroll of Misty Rain Jiangnan made Lu Ran sigh in admiration.

In the layers of rain, a large number of figures were manifesting different divine techniques and wearing clothes of various colors, quickly flying towards the central island of Misty Rain Lake.

This scene was quite spectacular!

In Lu Ran's mind, an inappropriate term flashed—Ten Thousand Nations Coming to Court!

"Lu Zongzhu Lu!" An old voice came from afar.

Lu Ran turned his head to look.

I saw a group of Bihe island masters led by the Gray Lotus Island Master flying over one after another.

The Gray Lotus Island Master's old face carried a hint of joy: "Lu Zongzhu Lu, we are going to you, you... did you just advance?"

Lu Ran nodded with a smile.

The Gray Lotus Island Master was dumbfounded: "Why didn't Lu Zongzhu Lu notify us in advance?"

"I'm just making a small fuss." Lu Ran waved his hand with a smile, "Let's go, let's go see."

"Congratulations to Lu Zongzhu Lu for taking a step forward!"

"Congratulations, congratulations." The various island masters spoke one after another, necessary congratulations still had to be given.

Lu Ran was indeed only in the River Realm, but in terms of his real combat power...

Even this group of Sea Realm great island masters couldn't guarantee that they could last a few rounds in front of the Lu Zongzhu of the Ran Sect.

Lu Ran had already fought for his own great prestige!

Especially when the Mount Jingting army invaded and Lu Ran and the Ran Sect generals confronted them before the battle, those shocking words he said still lingered in the hearts of the Thousand Boat Alliance members.

I killed them, so what?

Lingfeng Hall, Tiger Whisker Hall, and Heavenly Disciple Mountain were all destroyed by me!

So what?

Then there really was a "so what"!

Lu Zongzhu Lu of Mount Jingting, the First Wife, and the Third Wife were also beheaded by Lu Ran leading the team!

Although the Thousand Boat Alliance soldiers didn't see it with their own eyes, even the Wu Ji Peak Great Wind Hall Master said so, who would question it?

"That is?" While flying, Jiang Ruyi's heart suddenly trembled.

"Alliance Leader Yun!"

"It's Alliance Leader Yun Qianzhou!"

"Hiss..." The Golden Lotus Island Master, as a Sea Realm powerhouse, actually gasped, "What a terrifying momentum!"

"Gulp." Lu Ran stared blankly at the man on Tianya Island who was slowly flying into the sky.

He had a slender figure, an extremely handsome face, a high nose bridge, and pale lips.

There was still faint light flowing in his eyes, and no joy or sorrow could be seen, as if there was not the slightest emotion belonging to the human race.

There is a term: awe-inspiring without anger.

And Yun Qianzhou's emotionless eyes, just by looking from afar, made people's hearts tremble.

He stopped slowly in mid-air, his long black hair unbound, and his wide white robe fluttering gently in the slanting wind and drizzle.

The whole world seemed to have quieted down at this moment.

Countless members of the Thousand Boat Alliance who went to congratulate lost their voices together, and even everyone stopped where they were, not daring to approach Tianya Island anymore.

Between heaven and earth, only the drizzling rain was still falling.

Still making a ticking sound.

At this moment, the memory hidden deep in Lu Ran's mind surfaced quietly.

This feeling... this feeling, Lu Ran seemed to have had it before!

That was at his father's funeral.

His mother took little Yuanyuan and rushed to the small Rain Lane City.

Lu Ran followed his mother, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, to send off his late father, and it seemed that for a period of time, he lost his consciousness.

Hindsight!

To this day, Lu Ran realized that the young self back then didn't seem to be mentally dazed because of excessive sadness.

The self back then should have been trembling in heart and soul.

That 13-year-old frail boy couldn't bear the level of emotional outpouring from his mother, and in a short moment, his brain went blank, and his memory became blurred...

So, is his mother also in the Heavenly Realm?

Or, was the young self too fragile, mistaking the Sea for the Heaven?

Who knows.

"Hoo..." Lu Ran let out a long breath.

He had been in the Holy Spirit Mountain for almost a year.

I don't know how his mother is doing.

Has she become the Peak Master of Jinghong?

Does she... occasionally think of me?
