Hundred Thousand Mountains.
This place was located in the extreme south of the Vast Land. It was surrounded by mountains, barren hills, and foul waters. It was the place where demons and evil ghosts thrived.
The deeper they went, the more terrifying the demons were.
This vile land was even listed as a forbidden land for the human race.
Even immortals with high cultivation only dared to walk around the periphery and did not dare to go deep.
……
"Kill them!"
"You Luo Heart Technique, Shadow Killing Array!"
"Watch your back!"
"Form the formation, quickly form the formation!"
The group from the Nether Luo Hall had just entered the range of the Hundred Thousand Mountains when they were attacked by demonic beasts.
This was a type of multicolored tiger with a pair of sharp eyes. Its body was as tall and strong as an ox. A pair of huge fangs bared from its mouth, and its tail waved like a steel whip.
Sharp-Toothed Tiger.
His strength was equivalent to the middle and late stages of Qi Refinement.
Unlike normal tigers, they did not like to travel alone. Instead, they liked to travel in groups.
This caused a great deal of trouble for the people from You Luo Hall.
They worked together to kill a few of them, but were then scattered by the tiger group. Under the crazy attacks of the demon beasts, they struggled to hold on.
Not far away, Li Ran lay on his flying sword and yawned lazily.
He was the leader, not the nanny.
Before someone died, he was too lazy to make a move.
"Oh?"
On the chaotic battlefield, a petite figure attracted his attention.
Lu Xinran shuttled between the demon beasts, her figure as fast as a ghost. The sharp-toothed tiger's slow speed could not touch her at all.
On the contrary, every time she attacked, she would leave terrifying wounds on their bodies.
In just three breaths, he easily killed a demon tiger.
"Not bad, you've grown a lot.”Li Ran nodded secretly.
Lu Xinran's combat talent was still very strong.
However, the good times did not last long.
The demonic tigers quickly noticed this troublesome enemy and listed her as their priority target. The five demonic tigers howled crazily and pounced over like they were blotting out the sun.
Lu Xinran suddenly felt a little awkward.
She turned the shadow into a shield and blocked the attacks of the four demonic tigers, but one of them still broke through the defense line.
"Roar!"
The demon tiger's scarlet eyes were filled with greed. It opened its bloody mouth and bit at her. Its stinky saliva almost dripped onto her body!
"We're finished!"
Lu Xinran looked terrified.
At this moment, it was already too late to use any Dao techniques.
Just as she was about to bite down, her vision blurred and a tall figure blocked her way.
"Enough, let's stop here."
Following the indifferent voice, the demonic tiger instantly exploded into a rain of blood that filled the sky.
Li Ran's body was wrapped in silver light. Like a meteor in the daytime, he swept into the group of demon beasts.
"Ao Ao!"
Accompanied by ear-piercing howls, all the demonic tigers were torn apart by the silver light in just a few breaths.
Red light splattered everywhere, and blood and flesh flew everywhere. The tragic scene was like a painting of hell!
Li Ran floated above the corpse.
His white clothes fluttered in the wind, his black hair danced in the wind, and there was not a trace of blood on his body.
The contrast between this scene was extremely great. The disciples watched in a daze and could not come back to their senses for a long time.
Seeing that many of them were already injured, Li Ran said indifferently,"Everyone, check your injuries. Reorganize yourselves on the spot and set off in an hour.”
After saying that, he jumped back onto the flying sword and lazily basked in the sun.
Lu Xinran was the first to react. She looked at him gratefully and then began to organize the disciples.
"Lord Holy Son is so handsome!"
"To be honest, he's really handsome!"
"Did you see what he did just now? In an instant, all the demonic tigers died!”
"That's amazing!"
"The Saint Child isn't as cold as the rumors say ~"
The disciples looked at Li Ran with admiration and discussed in low voices.
A male disciple covered his bleeding arm and snorted,"In order to act cool, he had to wait until the last moment to make a move! If we had gotten rid of the demon beasts earlier, we wouldn't have been injured!”
Clearly, he was already dissatisfied.
Lu Xinran looked at him coldly." Do you think you're here for a vacation? This was actual combat, and one would get injured in actual combat!”
"If the Saint Child has cleared all the obstacles, what's the point of this trial?”
" But…" The male disciple still wanted to quibble.
"Lord Holy Son saved our lives, so we should be grateful. If I hear such words again, I'll withdraw from the trial!”Lu Xinran's attitude was very unyielding.
The others also cast unfriendly looks at him.
The male disciple trembled and lowered his head, not daring to speak again.
……
After the disciples bandaged their wounds and collected the Fey bones required for the mission, the team continued to move forward.
Li Ran still followed behind unhurriedly.
"Lord Holy Son!"
Lu Xinran ran up to him, holding a bright red fruit in her hand.
"This is the Cloudspirit Fruit I just found. Have one to quench your thirst.”
"I'm not thirsty." Li Ran didn't even look up.
"Alright then…"
"Thank you for saving me just now," Lu Xinran said seriously.”
"No need, this is the responsibility of the leader," Li Ran said indifferently.”
"Hehe, actually, I know that although Lord Holy Son looks cold on the surface, he's actually a very warm person.”Lu Xinran said with a red face.
"Ah?" Li Ran was stunned.
"You only attacked last so that we could gain actual combat experience, right? I know your good intentions!”Lu Xinran clenched her fists and said firmly,""We will definitely work hard and not let you down!”
Li Ran was speechless.
Who has expectations for you?
Did this girl misunderstand something?
……
He also answered a few questions.
1. There are obviously many female leads in this article. You can tell from the introduction...
2. Breaking off the engagement was just a joke, not the main theme. There was no need to worry.
