Chapter 615

~11 min read 2,126 words

The generals of the Ran Sect stayed in Thousand Flower Ridge for a few more days.

During this time, Jiang Ruyi ordered the soldiers to clean up the wooden house complex.

Repairing what needed repair, tearing down what needed tearing down.

Using local materials, they meticulously renovated it.

In the river valley, seven houses of various sizes were finally left, and the dilapidated scene of the past was completely renewed.

The stream gurgled, and the fragrance of flowers overflowed.

The quiet and relatively hidden river valley really felt like a paradise.

Living here, the minds of the Ran Sect members gradually relaxed, enjoying the rare leisure time.

Only Lu Ran did not rest.

In fact, he hadn't closed his eyes for several days and nights.

Now, with no other divine weapons blocking the way, Lu Ran naturally took the Eight Desolations Blade and focused on comprehending the divine weapon domain.

He had been standing on the high mountain ridge, looking far away at the boundless sea of flowers, and also looking at the thousand-meter trench he had once cut out.

There, the mountain had collapsed, and the ground had sunken.

He didn't know when this out-of-place terrain would be filled by the sea of flowers again.

It really spoiled the scenery.

Yet Lu Ran just stared at this spot, recalling in his mind over and over again the scene of Wu Xiao holding the Dark Iron Spear and casting spells together.

The earth crawled with spiderweb-like cracks.

Mountains collapsed and the earth split.

Clear images, targeted research and comprehension, supplemented by painstaking effort.

Lu Ran and the Eight Desolations Blade finally got what they wanted on a night in early February!

This night, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse.

Thick fog covered the stars and the moon, surging in!

The commotion of comprehending a divine weapon domain was truly not small, with specifications far exceeding an advancement within a small rank of the human race.

A fog tornado appeared in Thousand Flower Ridge, connecting heaven and earth.

At the same time, in the river valley, inside a house built at the foot of the mountain, a voice of surprise came:

"Ah! Is that Lu Ran? He succeeded!"

Si Xianxian sat up abruptly from the bed, feeling the increasingly rich divine power environment around her.

She was extremely happy, reaching out to the side: "Ruyi, Ruyi?"

In the darkness, a cold voice came: "Hmm, take advantage of the opportunity and cultivate well."

"Your temperament is really getting colder and colder." Si Xianxian muttered in a low voice, "It could practically freeze someone to death."

Jiang Ruyi smiled and got up to meditate: "I am very happy.

However, he will be back in a while, and you will have to find somewhere else to live."

Si Xianxian's little face immediately turned bitter.

Oh right!

The dog thing is back, and there will be no room for her on the bed.

Si Xianxian immediately leaned over, hugged Jiang Xianzi's arm, and begged: "Ruyi, let him go sleep in another room for a night."

Jiang Ruyi: "..."

Si Xianxian's sweet, coquettish voice was cloyingly sweet: "Madam, Madam, good Madam~"

Jiang Ruyi was a bit helpless: "Cultivate quickly, the time for divine weapon comprehension won't be too long."

Si Xianxian pursed her little mouth.

She's also a little heartless!

Do you know what I've sacrificed to stay by your side? I've been so hard-working, bearing the pressure at all times, accompanying you day and night.

And you!

As soon as the dog thing comes back, you want to drive me away...

Actually, Si Xianxian had originally resigned herself to her fate.

River and Sea are not on the same level, there's really no need to make things uncomfortable for herself.

Jiang Ruyi had once advised Si Xianxian not to force it, so Si Xianxian had planned to wait until after she advanced before returning to the previous way of getting along.

But ever since Wu Xiao and Pomegranate Fire joined the Ran Sect, Si Xianxian realized one thing:

Where there's a will, there's a way!

Pomegranate Fire is only at the Fourth Stage of the River Estuary Realm, yet she can stay by the side of the peak Sea Realm Great Martial Student every day.

Why can't I?

I, Si Xianxian, am at least a stone sculpture original, can't I compare to a weak Fierce Blood disciple?

So Si Xianxian came.

Hmm, I guess I'll have to leave again in a while.

Divine weapon advancement is not like human advancement.

The time consumed for comprehending the domain is long for a few hours, and short for ten or twenty minutes.

The Eight Desolations Blade took a very short time!

Because the goal of one master and one weapon was too clear, even the spell-casting method and specific effects of the domain were clear and distinct.

It was practically copying the answer sheet!

Once the exam starts, how could it not be fast?

Thus, before the Ran Sect members had cultivated for long, the fog between heaven and earth slowly dissipated.

In the river valley, people walked out of the seven houses arranged in good order.

The soldiers didn't go to the mountaintop, worried about disturbing the Sect Master, so they stayed outdoors, waiting for the Sect Master to return to offer their congratulations at the first opportunity.

"Sigh." In front of a house, Yu Fish Changsheng gently shook his paper fan and sighed lightly.

His gaze swept across the stream, and by the bright moonlight, he looked at a wooden house in the mountain forest on the other side of the river.

Wu Xiao and Pomegranate Fire also walked out together.

Presumably, among the Ran Sect members, Wu Xiao's mood was the most complicated.

After all, the divine weapon domain Lu Ran obtained at this time once belonged to Wu Xiao.

Thinking of this, Yu Fish Changsheng couldn't help but have a strange expression.

Recalling this trip to Thousand Flower Ridge, Lu Ran's various actions felt a bit like "doing evil things"?

Lu Ran shattered Wu Xiao's Dark Iron Spear, snatched the other party's divine weapon domain, and even took in Wu Xiao himself!

Isn't this purely a bully?

The poor Great Martial Student, he's been eaten clean...

While pondering, Yu Fish Changsheng sensed something and immediately raised his head.

A lonely moon wheel in the bright sky.

A slender figure flew down from the night sky.

From Yu Fish Changsheng's perspective, the young man wearing imperial robes was perfectly framed in the bright moon.

Tsk tsk~

Yu Fish Changsheng cast aside his messy thoughts, feeling extremely satisfied in his heart.

The paper fan in his hand shook even more gracefully and comfortably.

Lu Ran's growth and transformation within the Holy Spirit Mountain were things Yu Fish Changsheng had participated in throughout, and of course, he had a share of the credit!

Seeing Lu Ran's style again at this moment, Yu Fish Changsheng had a sense of satisfaction from "nurturing."

"Whoosh~"

Suddenly, one after another, Wonderful Fire Cages flew up, the exquisite eight-sided lanterns glowing with red luster, lighting up the night river valley.

Amidst the sounds of congratulations, Lu Ran cupped his hands and responded politely.

And when he saw Wu Xiao, he clearly faltered a bit.

Wu Xiao, however, was calm and offered his congratulations respectfully; after Lu Ran nodded in response, he landed in front of the house where Jiang Ruyi was.

"You got what you wanted." Jiang Ruyi showed a faint smile.

"Yes, finally." Lu Ran placed one hand on his waist, gripping the Eight Desolations Blade handle.

The Eight Desolations Blade was overjoyed, its mind connected with the master of the divine weapon, which also caused Lu Ran's heart to be filled with a trace of joyful emotion.

"What is the name of the domain?" Jiang Ruyi asked.

"Eight Directions Total Annihilation." Lu Ran stroked the blade handle with his fingertips.

Eight Desolations Blade's first divine weapon domain: Eight Directions Total Annihilation!

Lu Ran didn't use the character "Desolations" again, but used the literal meaning of "Eight Directions" to express the specific effect of the divine weapon domain.

With one blade thrust down, with himself as the center point, all eight directions would be destroyed completely!

From this point on,

Rosy Clouds Blade burns the sky, Eight Desolations Blade splits the earth!

Just thinking about it made Lu Ran incredibly happy.

The emotional fluctuations of a Sea Realm expert can naturally affect the surrounding environment.

Consequently, even Si Xianxian, who had been driven out of her home in the middle of the night, felt happy for Lu Ran.

Lu Ran looked around and praised: "You've built this base quite well, haven't you? The wooden house is hidden quite well, I almost didn't find it."

Jiang Ruyi said casually: "The environment here is good, it's good to have a small stronghold.

Anyway, wherever you go is just one step."

"Pfft~" On the side, Si Xianxian muttered in a low voice.

"What's wrong?" Lu Ran looked at Si Xianxian.

Si Xianxian pursed her lips: "It was clearly you who said you liked it here, said you wanted to see Ruyi dancing with a sword in the sea of flowers, that's why Ruyi built it... Ugh."

As someone's faint gaze swept over, Si Xianxian shrank her neck, couldn't help but shiver, and didn't dare to speak anymore.

"Oh?" Lu Ran blinked, reaching out to pull Jiang Xianzi into his arms, "Is that so?"

Jiang Ruyi was stubborn: "There were already buildings here, it would be a pity to abandon them."

Saying this, Jiang Ruyi turned her head and looked at Si Xianxian again.

She really is my good best friend!

Telling everything to the outside...

Lu Ran covered Jiang Xianzi's eyes with one hand: "Don't always bully Sister Xian'er, not even letting others speak, isn't that too overbearing?"

"Exactly, exactly." Si Xianxian nodded repeatedly, like a chick pecking at rice.

Jiang Ruyi: "..."

The three of them laughed for a while, and Lu Ran asked again: "How have Wu Xiao and Pomegranate Fire been these days?"

"Quite good, Pomegranate Fire is very grateful to us." Jiang Ruyi recalled the contact over the past few days and said softly, "Wu Xiao has been very silent.

However, he is not as muddled as when we first met."

"Hmm." Lu Ran relied on his powerful night vision to look at the distant forest, looking at the houses hidden within.

Jiang Ruyi seemed to have sensed something and comforted him softly: "Don't think too much, since the divine weapon domains overlap, meeting on a narrow path is unavoidable.

In the future, just treat him well."

"That's natural." Lu Ran nodded immediately.

Jiang Ruyi suddenly suggested: "How about you gift the Purple Thunder Mad Dragon Halberd to Wu Xiao?"

"Oh?" Lu Ran's heart stirred.

The Second-Grade Divine Weapon, Purple Thunder Mad Dragon Halberd, is a quite powerful weapon!

The usage of a spear and a halberd is of course different, but they also have certain commonalities.

Regardless of whether Wu Xiao has dabbled in halberd techniques, a powerful martial artist with his innate talent can just practice more.

Lu Ran didn't know that Jiang Ruyi was thinking more.

Regarding Lu Ran's decision to return the Dark Iron Spear, which had been split in two, to Wu Xiao, Jiang Ruyi had never agreed.

She believed in Lu Ran's ability and methods to fully control Wu Xiao, and she wouldn't fear challenges.

But the problem is, why leave hidden dangers for yourself?

If the Dark Iron Spear is cultivated into a divine weapon again, and then it's about to advance to the Second Grade, and it just so happens that the divine weapon domain is the same again...

Will Wu Xiao fight or not?

He doesn't want to challenge Lu Ran, but would the divine weapon be willing?

To avoid all sorts of subsequent troubles, it would be better to just nip it in the bud right now.

Jiang Ruyi dropped one hand naturally, gently picking up Lu Ran's palm: "Are you going to have Wu Xiao bind with the stone sculpture?"

The suddenly changed topic made Lu Ran react for a moment before nodding:

"Having him bind with the Martial Student god sculpture is quite appropriate."

Wu Xiao claims to have a rotten life, but Lu Ran doesn't think so.

Under his command, Wu Xiao will be very precious.

He will shine brilliantly!

"Let Wu Xiao use the halberd for the rest of his life." Jiang Ruyi leaned gently into Lu Ran's arms, closing her eyes.

The cold fairy's faint words drifted into Lu Ran's ears again:

"Bury the Dark Iron Spear and his past self in the past."
