Chapter 738

Lu Ran explained a lot to Chang Ying and found an especially wide white robe for her in his wardrobe before taking her back to Starry Sky Valley.

At that time, the 66 disciples in the valley were all sitting quietly in meditation around the main hall.

The Starry Sky Valley disciples were not surprised by the straw-cape-wearing youth walking out of the ancient bronze mirror, but when everyone saw the white-robed girl walk out, their moods were a bit complicated.

As the saying goes, people rely on clothes!

The Chang Ying of the past was a slave in the valley, wearing tattered and ill-fitting clothes.

Now that Chang Ying had changed into a beautiful white robe, even if she didn't look like an immortal, at least she was quite imposing!

Things are different now...

The disciples looked at Chang Ying silently; among the crowd was a petite figure whose mood was particularly excited—Little Man!

She was sitting cross-legged, with Chang Ying's mountain-opening axe beside her.

Little Man gripped the axe, wanting to send it to Chang Ying, but suppressed the thought.

In her line of sight, Chang Ying was silently following behind the youth, waiting for the straw-cape-wearing man and woman to finish communicating.

"Sorry, Sister, for making you wait two or three days."

"It's fine." Deng Yuxiang said indifferently, switching to telepathy, 【Is the Spirit Sign Stone Sculpture activated?】

【Sea Realm, Third Stage; Chang Ying has already bound with Spirit Sign.】 Speaking of this, Lu Ran became spirited, 【Do you know, Sister, the strength of the Spirit Sign divine technique is explosive!】

【Oh?】

【Whatever I want to draw, I draw, and there's no skill cooldown time; it's simply cheating!】 Lu Ran sighed with his whole heart, 【Your Sea Artifact Evil Technique: Night Charm Blade can only throw out 32 blades, right?】

Deng Yuxiang nodded as a matter of course.

Including Bei Feng's blades, Jian Yi's swords, and Asha's arrows, the quantity at the Sea Artifact level is a standard 32.

Lu Ran grinned: 【Sea Artifact: Nine Treasures Sign's Output Sign can throw out a full 81 flying signs!】

Deng Yuxiang: "..."

Is this treating me like a bad student?

In the Human Da Xia, Sea Realm powerhouses are indeed rare, and she had never seen a Sea Realm Spirit Sign believer with her own eyes.

But knowledge is engraved in books!

Who doesn't know that the Spirit Sign sect's divine technique is excessively strong?

Deng Yuxiang looked at the showing-off Lu Ran with a smile, but didn't say much; she was naturally happy that he possessed powerful techniques.

The problem is, does Lu Ran really have the ability to control 81 flying signs?

Even 32 Night Charm Blades are a struggle!

Some divine techniques you can use as soon as you get them, while others require you to be immersed in the path for years, training and studying day and night.

From this perspective, Spirit Sign believers alone, just training one output sign, don't know how much faith power they have contributed to the god Spirit Sign.

After all, drawing an output sign is a matter of probability.

And after using it once, you have to continue praying to clear the skill cooldown duration...

Deng Yuxiang thought secretly, turning her eyes to look at Chang Ying.

However, it's better now.

Chang Ying can take signs from the tube at will and can smoothly train specifically.

Seeing Deng Yuxiang look over, Chang Ying said in a low voice: "Sister Deng."

Chang Ying naturally recognized Deng Yutang's biological sister, but hadn't had much contact with her.

Deng Yuxiang said "Mm" and looked at Lu Ran again: "Yesterday, people from Bee Elephant Valley came to investigate."

"No conflict, right?" Lu Ran asked with concern immediately.

Deng Yuxiang shook her head: "I handled the negotiations; the other party kept probing. Overall, it was quite friendly; they are very grateful to us for eliminating evil."

Lu Ran nodded: "After we're done here, let's go pay a visit."

"Mm." Deng Yuxiang turned her head and signaled to several people in the distance, "Those four were once Shen Xiaotang's lackeys; they are the evildoers exposed and dragged out by the Starry Sky Valley disciples."

Lu Ran looked over and knew what he should do: "Okay, you stay with Chang Ying and recruit the disciples in the valley."

After speaking, Lu Ran summoned the ancient bronze mirror while walking away with long strides.

Deng Yuxiang watched Lu Ran take the four away before looking at the tall girl on the side.

"Sister Deng." Chang Ying spoke again, calling out in a low voice.

Deng Yuxiang could perceive that the girl's strength and realm were not low; she was probably at the high level of the River Estuary Realm!

Much stronger than her own good-for-nothing brother.

Come to think of it, how are these teammates of Deng Yutang's student days all stronger than him?

Mm... no, I have to kick him twice when I get back!

Deng Yuxiang frowned slightly and asked: "How did the Sect Master arrange it?"

"Ran-bao... mm, the Sect Master wants to establish a Starry Sky Hall within the cliff and appoint me as the hall master."

Chang Ying paused and continued: "This trip is to make all the Starry Sky Valley disciples become Spirit Sign believers and worship me in the future."

Deng Yuxiang's voice turned a bit colder: "Your relationship with the Sect Master is very good, and you can do whatever you want in private. But in front of outsiders, you must maintain respect and call him Sect Master."

"Yes." Chang Ying lowered her eyes.

Deng Yuxiang looked at Chang Ying silently for a long time, her tone softening slightly: "You are very excellent; you endure what ordinary people cannot endure, and naturally you can achieve what ordinary people cannot achieve."

Chang Ying obviously didn't understand the Great Da Da Mengyan and just nodded gently, like a student listening to teachings.

She didn't know what kind of glory it was to receive a word of approval from the first protector of the Ran Sect.

If it were Deng Yutang instead of Chang Ying, he would probably be able to take off on the spot...

Deng Yuxiang continued: "For Starry Sky Valley disciples to switch to Lu Ran's sect, they need to tear up the divine contract first, and when we killed the enemy earlier, we also required the enemy to tear up the contract..."

Being in Soul-Locking Mountain, Wang Longxiang had no choice but to lead everyone to hide underground, and the underground tunnels extended in all directions, with many hidden entrances and exits.

"Okay, bring them into the hall and explain it well."

"Thank you, Sister Deng."

"Half-kneel, Da Da Mengyan Protector."

Chang Ying understood instantly, knelt down, and bowed her head: "Yes, Protector."

"Go, I'll hold the line for you." Deng Yuxiang said softly, not treating Chang Ying differently because of the relationship between Chang Ying and Lu Ran.

On the contrary, in some aspects, Deng Yuxiang seemed even stricter?

Chang Ying stood up and faced the crowd, looking at the familiar figures, her heart filled with mixed feelings.

She walked toward the main hall step by step and said: "Everyone, follow me into the hall."

For a moment, more than sixty Starry Sky Valley disciples looked at Deng Yuxiang in unison.

Deng Yuxiang said: "Now, she is your leader in Starry Sky Valley."

Everyone naturally understood and stood up immediately, following Chang Ying toward the main hall one after another.

One petite figure, carrying a mountain-opening axe much taller than herself, walked quickly to Chang Ying's side: "My lord."

Chang Ying stopped her pace and turned to look at Little Man.

The Little Man of the past called her "Yingying," but now the address had changed.

She also became submissive and respectful.

A sour feeling welled up in Chang Ying's heart; she reached out to take her mountain-opening axe and said in a low voice: "I will be very good to you all."

Outside the main hall, it was exceptionally quiet.

The girl draped in a beautiful white robe, even if she spoke in a low voice, was still heard clearly by the people nearby.

And as Chang Ying stopped her steps, the people around also stopped.

She looked around, her gaze sweeping over everyone, looking at the faces that had shared years of suffering.

Chang Ying lowered her head silently and walked into the main hall with long strides.

I will definitely be very good to you all.

I promise!

"Hum~" The mountain-opening axe in Chang Ying's hand trembled slightly.

Chang Ying was a bit stunned and looked down at the axe.

The material of this axe is very low-grade, made of Demon Yellow Rock, and the whole body is yellowish-brown.

This material is almost the most common demon cave mineral material in the divine demon system.

The next lower grade material is the bottom-tier "Demon Gray Rock," which is no different from the gray stones picked up casually on the street.

Never did she expect that a mountain-opening axe made of such inferior Demon Yellow Rock would have a day when it trembled slightly.

Chang Ying smiled.

So... Demon Yellow Battle Axe, do you also approve of my decision?

When Lu Ran returned to Starry Sky Valley with a bit of evil spirit on him, the Female Hero God Sculpture in his sculpture garden had reached the Jiang Jing, Fifth Stage, and was still humming.

It was clearly aiming for the River Estuary Realm.

As for how many stages of the River Estuary Realm it could reach, Lu Ran didn't hold much hope.

He arrived at the entrance of the main hall, saw Deng Yuxiang leaning against the door pillar, and also saw a group of trembling figures inside this main hall that was just beginning to take shape.

It seems the Starry Sky Valley disciples had all torn up the divine contracts and chosen to follow Chang Ying and join the Ran Sect.

And above the hall, a huge illusory sign was floating.

Mists were spreading from the sign, connecting to the full 66 Starry Sky Valley disciples below.

Spirit Sign Divine Technique: Nine Treasures Sign's Support Sign!

Why didn't Lu Ran send medical disciples over?

Because it wasn't needed!

The support sign in the Five Treasures Sign can only restore the caster's divine power.

The support sign in the Six Treasures Sign, in addition to the above function, can also make the caster clear-headed and repair their spirit.

The effects of the Seven Treasures Sign and Eight Treasures Sign can be said to be one step higher at each level.

By the time it reaches the Nine Treasures Sign, this support sign is no longer limited to supporting oneself.

It can restore the target's divine power, repair the target's spirit, and heal the target's wounds!

And it's not single-target healing.

It's group healing!

Such a terrifying support method is strong enough to leave one speechless!

Weak Spirit Sign believers are called jacks-of-all-trades.

Strong Spirit Sign believers are undisputed all-around warriors!

The only thing limiting the combat power of Spirit Sign believers is two words—probability.

And Lu Ran personally erased the concept of "probability" for Chang Ying; the former gambler Chang became "Chang the Cheater."

How far can Chang Ying eventually win?

Lu Ran is looking forward to it!

【This classmate of yours is not bad; I estimate it won't be long before she becomes a major combat force of the Ran Sect.】 The voice of the Great Da Da Mengyan came from his mind.

【Oh?】 Lu Ran was quite surprised and looked at the Great Da Da Mengyan beside him.

You woman, you can actually praise people?

Deng Yuxiang evaluated: 【Very steady, very composed, and didn't lose her mentality due to changes in status and strength.】

【Mm.】 Lu Ran smiled. 【She was impulsive in high school, heartless all day long.】

Deng Yuxiang also smiled: 【Do you miss it?】

【Of course I miss it; I still remember her frolicking in the rain outside the Rain Alley station.】

【People always grow up.】

【Mm.】 Lu Ran looked at his Starry Sky He Tangzhu from afar.

Holy Spirit Mountain eats people, but it also tempers bones and refines souls.

The master of the Ran Sect in the mountains...

Casts generals, forges gods.
