Chapter 650

In the small courtyard of the bamboo house, the atmosphere is oppressive.

On the stone table chessboard, deep and light pieces fall alternately; although there is no earth-shattering momentum, a murderous aura is vaguely revealed.

The gray-robed old man has turbid eyes, holds a light-colored piece, and drops it again; an invisible pressure permeates the air: "Sect Master Lu, do you wish to be the breaker of the game?"

The young man in the imperial robe has eyes like torches, his fingertips tap lightly, and a dark piece falls: "I will die without regret."

"Die without regret," Lu Yuan nods thoughtfully, "In the eyes of Sect Master Lu, what does this world look like?"

Lu Ran raises his eyebrows slightly and looks at the old man.

Lu Yuan also looks over, waiting for Lu Ran's reply.

Lu Ran ponders for a moment and organizes his language: "Gods and demons collude, enslaving the human race for generations, providing faith power for gods and spiritual food for demons.

Anyone who has the possibility of breaking the human pattern will be thrown into this slaughterhouse to ensure the stability of the rule of gods and demons."

Lu Yuan looks at the chessboard again and slowly drops a piece.

Noncommittal.

Lu Ran frowns, carefully observing the old man's expression, and asks: "Isn't it?"

Lu Yuan is silent for a long time, then suddenly asks: "Is this skill of Sect Master Lu taught by Lord Xiang Xianyang?"

Lu Ran nods immediately.

Lu Yuan's eyes are dark and unclear: "Does Sect Master Lu know what Lord Xiang Xianyang intends to do?"

Lu Ran: "I don't know."

Whether it is Qin Yanzhi or Yan Shuangzi, who is serving on the side, they are all astonished.

Lu Ran adds: "But judging from Lord Xiang Xianyang's actions, it wants to destroy the gods and demons. For me, that is enough."

"Has Sect Master Lu ever thought that you are also a chess piece?"

"Hehe." This time, Lu Ran laughs, "As long as I can slaughter all those dogs in the sky, the junior is willing to be so."

From the moment Lu Ran stepped onto the God-Respecting Platform, he had no choice.

And from beginning to end, Lord Xiang Xianyang's kindness of reconstruction, everything it gave him, and its care and concern for him all along, are all real.

Lu Ran should not, and has no reason to, fail this great kindness.

Everything is as Lord Xiang Xianyang said to Lu Ran at the very beginning:

"You don't need to believe in gods.

Believe in kindness and hatred, believe in cause and effect, and that is enough."

Lu Yuan sighs softly: "It seems that Sect Master Lu hates gods and demons to the extreme."

"Doesn't Senior Lu hate them?"

"That's true," Lu Yuan looks at the situation on the chessboard and mutters, "Hate, hate to the extreme..."

Lu Ran follows the stick up: "Senior Lu has hatred in his heart, and the junior has the ambition and potential to overturn tyranny, and can even give Senior a qualification to become a god.

Why not, Senior, join my Ran Sect?"

Lu Yuan's hand holding the piece pauses, and he looks at Lu Ran: "Qualification to become a god?"

Lu Ran tilts his head slightly, signaling to Yan Shuangzi on the side: "She is not a Savage Dog disciple, but a Savage Dog herself."

Lu Yuan narrows his eyes slightly and looks at the mysterious straw-caped woman on the side.

Yan Shuangzi endures the throbbing in her heart.

The overly powerful senses make her bear more pressure than others when facing a Heaven Realm powerhouse.

"More accurately, it's a false god," Lu Ran nods slightly to Qin Yanzhi.

General Qin understands and explains to his master, finally adding: "The Sect Master has promised me that I will be bound to the Sin Mirror Demon evil sculpture, replace this evil god, and seize the god position."

Listening to his disciple's words, Lu Yuan does not respond for a long time.

"Whoosh~"

The wind blows, bringing a few fluttering bamboo leaves.

Yan Shuangzi steps forward, pours out the completely cold Misty Rain Tea, and serves two cups of hot tea to the old and the young.

Lu Yuan picks up the teacup and takes a shallow sip.

The bitterness of it opens his eyes.

Along with it, Lu Yuan's smile seems a bit bitter: "Becoming a god, forget it.

This old man is just an idle cloud and wild crane, without great ambition, just wanting to see my wife and daughter and spend the rest of my life in peace."

Such words are truly beyond Lu Ran's expectations.

When a chance to become a god is placed in front of him, someone is not moved?

Doesn't Lu Yuan hate gods to the extreme?

Lu Ran also picks up the teacup: "But Senior Lu, this little wish of yours is also not allowed, is it?"

Lu Yuan's old hand holding the teacup freezes in mid-air.

"Senior Lu clearly has the ability to return to the human world, but was forced to retreat to the Holy Lingshan," Lu Ran looks directly at the old man and says those four words, "The gods do not allow it."

The gods do not allow it!

For Lu Yuan, the four words that pierce his heart incomparably.

Lu Yuan slowly puts down the teacup: "This disciple of mine has turned his old bottom over to Sect Master Lu."

Qin Yanzhi is both embarrassed and guilty: "Master Lu..."

Lu Yuan stops his disciple's words and speaks slowly: "The qualification to become a god should be left to Yanzhi; this old man will just help from the side."

Lu Ran is overjoyed; is Senior Lu planning to join?

He says hurriedly: "Senior Lu doesn't need to be modest, there are plenty of qualifications! I also know that you have used Dust Shadow Divine Technique all your life and are used to traveling a thousand miles in one step.

Qin Yanzhi replaces the Sin Mirror Demon, you can replace Dust Shadow!"

Lu Yuan is clearly stunned for a moment, and then, those eyes narrow slightly: "Dust Shadow... Dust Shadow..."

Hmm, that's fine too.

The two words Dust Shadow seem to reach the root of the disease!

Under Lu Ran's gaze, Lu Yuan mutters to himself and nods lightly.

Lu Ran is overjoyed!

He stands up, even a bit disbelieving, and confirms again: "Senior Lu, really want to join my Ran Sect?"

This is a Heaven Realm powerhouse!

Lu Yuan looks at the excited young Sect Master and cannot help but laugh.

Youth is truly good.

Lu Ran says hurriedly: "When I return to the Great Xia in the human world, I will definitely go see your wife and daughter and take good care of them!"

Hearing this, Lu Yuan's expression becomes much more serious: "Then... I will trouble the Sect Master."

Sect Master, Sect Master Lu.

A difference of one word, the relationship changes.

"Okay!" Lu Ran sits down and picks up the teacup, "The junior uses tea instead of wine to welcome Senior Lu's joining!"

As he speaks, Lu Ran has already drained the hot tea.

Not only bitter.

It's also damn hot!

Lu Ran endures the urge to grin and glances at Yan Shuangzi.

Yan Shuangzi lowers her head silently and takes Lu Ran's teacup.

"Easy to say, easy to say..." Lu Yuan smiles and drinks tea, and when he puts down the teacup again, his heart is filled with melancholy.

Thirty years of separation.

Can I finally see them?

Although not seeing them in person, it is enough.

While pondering, the strong desire in Lu Yuan's heart is gradually replaced by reason.

Should I really tell this child the information about my wife and daughter and send this child back to the human world?

Although there is his own disciple acting as a guarantor, this matter must not be rushed.

Still need to observe and understand, hold some chips in hand...

Lu Ran asks: "Senior Lu, when can you send me back to the human world?"

Lu Yuan ponders: "Sect Master, don't be anxious; let this old man adjust his state."

"Okay, no rush," Lu Ran nods repeatedly and follows the trend, "I also need to prepare well."

Saying this, Lu Ran picks up a piece and drops it without thinking.

Lu Yuan shakes his head with a smile, looks at the situation on the chessboard, and asks: "Sect Master's chess skills are truly not bad; all along, who has been playing against me?"

This question is very interesting, acknowledging that this is Lu Ran's chess skill, and asking who the chess player behind the scenes is.

Contradictory, yet reasonable.

"He is my Ran Sect Elder, named Bai Yanhui."

"Oh?" Lu Yuan ponders for a moment and probes, "The Valley Master of the Sinless Valley?"

This makes Lu Ran astonished: "Does Senior know Bai Lao?"

A touch of memory flashes in Lu Yuan's eyes: "How many years ago it was, this old man doesn't remember, but I helped them once.

In this Holy Lingshan, it is not easy to live with dignity as a weak god disciple.

Valley Master Bai is a character."

Such words also remind Lu Ran.

Lu Yuan is not a "pure-blooded" Dust Shadow disciple.

As a first-generation disciple, he is not a bystander; he will intervene in other people's destinies.

"I didn't expect Valley Master Bai to join the Ran Sect," Lu Yuan looks at Lu Ran with deep meaning, "It seems he still couldn't keep everything."

Lu Ran's expression is as usual: "Bai Lao is also living with dignity now.

The junior dare not say that everyone in the Ran Sect is equal, but the junior can say that the Ran Sect has a qualitative difference from other factions in the Holy Lingshan.

We don't eat people."

"Oh?"

"Last year, I destroyed the Heaven Disciple Mountain and saved Bai Lao from prison," Lu Ran nods with a smile, "If Senior wants to reminisce with an old friend, I'll take you there in a while."

Lu Yuan narrows his eyes: "So, the Ran Sect, like Wu Ji Peak and the Forbidden City, is considered a famous righteous faction?"

One sentence makes Lu Ran happy.

If I say the Forbidden City is mine, do you believe it?

Qin Yanzhi looks at Lu Ran suspiciously; what is there to be happy about?

"Yes, even better!" Lu Ran answers frankly.

He reaches into his robe and pulls out the Tianchen Blade from his waist, placing it flat on the table: "Senior, this blade has a special name.

It is my life creed and also my wish."

"What name?"

"Cloud Sea Dust Clear." Lu Ran wipes the cold blade with his fingertips.

"Buzz~" The Cloud Sea Blade trembles lightly.

The amplitude is not small!

"Good name, good name..." Lu Yuan looks at the young emperor full of ambition.

There is more appreciation in his heart, but he sighs secretly.

Lu Ran looks up at the sky and clouds, and suddenly asks: "By the way, Senior Lu, I heard you have been to the Heaven Realm; what does it look like?"

Lu Yuan is silent.

Lu Ran gives the other party enough time, but time passes second by second, and Lu Yuan doesn't seem to have any intention of answering.

Lu Ran calls out: "Senior Lu?"

Lu Yuan finally looks up at Lu Ran and shakes his head slowly: "Cannot be said."

"Ah?" Lu Ran is very puzzled.

What is there that cannot be said?

Lu Yuan smiles apologetically: "This old man still dreams of seeing my wife and daughter in my lifetime and reuniting with them.

Sect Master, don't ask anymore."

Lu Ran:?

This...

Is it serious to this extent?

Lu Yuan says solemnly: "With the Sect Master's strength, you will eventually ascend to the Heaven Realm, and you will see it then.

Or the Sect Master can go ask Lord Xiang Xianyang; this matter, this old man is not convenient to interfere."

Lu Ran immediately realizes that Lu Yuan's last sentence is the real problem.

Since Lu Ran knows nothing about the Heaven Realm, it means Xiang Xianyang has its own considerations and hasn't told Lu Ran about the situation in that world.

Therefore, Lu Yuan also dare not tell him.

As he said, he still wants to see his wife and daughter.

Even if he can't see them, he wants his wife and daughter to be able to live peacefully in the human world.

Lu Ran purses his lips and nods: "Okay, I won't make things difficult for you. There is one more thing, please enlighten me."

"Not involving the Heaven Realm, this old man is willing to discuss with the Sect Master."

"Is there such a thing as going into demonic deviation for those who ascend to the Heaven Realm?"

"Sort of."

"Sort of?"

Lu Yuan picks up the teacup, looking at the bitter tea: "The moment you ascend to the Heaven Realm, your heart and mind will not be at peace.

There will always be a thought popping up.

As if in the dark, there is some kind of existence constantly bewitching you."

Lu Ran grips the hilt tightly: "Bewitching people to start a massacre?"

Lu Yuan shakes his head gently: "This old man didn't have the thought of slaughter; it just constantly enticed me to ascend to heaven."

"Ascend to the Heaven Realm?"

"Ascend to the Heaven Realm!"

Asking for some monthly tickets.
