Chapter 109: Tiger in the Sheep's Mouth

Chapter 109: Tiger in the Sheep's Mouth
Everyone chatted for a long time in the small hut in the snow alley. The atmosphere became more and more lively, dispelling the gloom of yesterday.

The four members of the team reached a unanimous agreement to stop their training this month and focus on cultivation.

Once they reach the third stage of Creek Realm, Deng, Tian and Chang will be able to learn another magical skill. In this way, the team's combat power will naturally be greatly enhanced.

Most believers in the world can only learn 4 to 6 divine methods in their lifetime.

After all, those who can cultivate to the River Realm are already very outstanding.

And those who have reached the Jiang realm are even rarer!
It is worth mentioning that after reaching Jiang Realm, there are no more two magical skills to learn.

For most schools of gods, there is only one divine method to learn in Jiangjing.

Although the quantity is small, the quality is quite good!

The magic spells adapted for Jiangjing are mostly the kind that can destroy the heavens and the earth.
There are also some gods who simply do not possess the divine powers suitable for Jiangjing!
Unfortunately, the fairy sheep is one of them.

However, Lu Ran, a believer in the Immortal Sheep, doesn't care about this at all.

After all, he owns a sculpture garden of gods and demons, and can use any type of technique he wants.

From the technical perspective alone, Lu Ran is a well-deserved "kaleidoscope".

And it is the only one in the world!

In order to obtain this title, Lu Ran also had to practice hard.

He couldn't wait to equip himself with the evil magic that the Black Lantern Clan had adapted during their time in the River Realm.

Evil magic: Yin Fire Cage!
At that time, Lu Ran's eyes were burning with black fire, and wherever his eyes went, all the enemies were controlled and stood still.
Wouldn’t Lu Ran be so happy?

After returning home, Lu Ran sat cross-legged in front of the shrine and went straight into practice mode.

But in the afternoon of the next day, Lu Ran, who was practicing hard, was disturbed.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

"Hmm?" Lu Ran opened his eyes, a little confused.

Got a visitor at home?

Oh yes!
Lu Ran remembered that when they were having cold drinks yesterday, Deng Yutang and Tian Tian both said that Aunt Si had visited their home.

He immediately stood up and went to open the door.

Sure enough, there was a mother and daughter standing outside the door.

"Aunt Si." Lu Ran looked at the two of them with a smile, and also saw the gift in Ms. Si's hand.

"Good afternoon, Xiao Lu." Si Caiqin smiled and nodded, "Auntie came to see you, how are you doing?"

"Auntie, you are too polite. Please come in." Lu Ran took two steps back.

"Meow?" The little tabby cat came to Lu Ran's feet and looked up at the guest curiously.

"Are your family members at home?" Si Caiqin asked.

"I'm the only one at home." Lu Ran took out two pairs of slippers and put them on the ground.

"Meow~"

Lu Ran looked at the little tabby cat rubbing against his ankle and said with a smile, "There is also a cat."

Si Caiqin was worried that she had misunderstood, so she asked, "Your family?"

Lu Ran smiled and said, "My mother lives in Beijing, and my father is gone."

As soon as Si Xianxian put on the slippers on her left foot, she paused slightly.

Lu Ran was quite perceptive and naturally noticed this detail.

And the other party was also observing Lu Ran.

When Si Xianxian saw that Lu Ran said this with a smile, a smile actually appeared on her fair and delicate face.

That smile seemed a bit self-deprecating?
Si Caiqin didn't want the atmosphere to be awkward, so she asked hurriedly, "Is there a god at home?"

"Yes, in my room." Lu Ran brought the mother and daughter to the small bedroom.

This world has its own rules.

Visitors, out of respect for the host and the gods, must pay their respects first.

Si Caiqin did not show any abnormality because the other party was the ninth-class god, the immortal sheep.

She stood in front of the shrine, clasped her hands together, looked respectful, and said something like "excuse me".

Si Xianxian also bowed. From the moment she entered the house until now, she acted like a normal person.

"Auntie, please sit down first. I'll go get you a glass of water." Lu Ran invited the two to the living room.

"No, Xiao Lu, there's no need to go to so much trouble." Si Caiqin sat on the sofa, looking at Lu Ran's departing back.

Si Xianxian looked at the house curiously.

From the outside, the building looks a bit old and the paint on the walls is peeling off, but the house is very clean and tidy.

"Meow?" The little tabby boy jumped onto the armrest of the sofa and looked at the beautiful young lady curiously.

Si Xianxian stretched out a white finger and gently touched the tip of its nose.

Just then, Lu Ran came out with a cup of water and saw this heartwarming scene.

To be honest, it was hard for him to equate the quiet girl with fair skin and beautiful appearance in front of him with the violent and ferocious Lietian believer in the devil's cave.

"Thank you!" Si Caiqin took the water and said, "Please sit down, Xiao Lu. Stop working."

"I'm not busy." Lu Ran was a little embarrassed. "It's just a glass of boiled water. There's really nothing to entertain guests at home, not even tea."

Si Caiqin smiled and shook her head. She didn't mind, but just sighed slightly in her heart.

Look at this child, he is self-reliant and has such strength at such a young age.

Look at your own home.
No one dared to let Si Xianxian out of their sight easily, otherwise, their daughter might get into big trouble at any time!

Lu Ran suddenly asked, "Auntie, do you like canned food? We have canned food at home."

"Haha~" Si Xianxian couldn't help laughing at first, and then laughed very wildly.

That arrogant and unbridled look finally made Lu Ran see her shadow when she was in the devil's cave.

"You should behave yourself." Si Caiqin said in an unfriendly tone, looking at her daughter beside her.

Si Xianxian ignored her mother and just turned her head to look at the little raccoon who ran to the side to eat. Lu Ran moved a small stool and sat opposite the coffee table: "Auntie, you are too polite to bring so many things."

"Xiao Lu, Auntie has a question." Si Caiqin said softly.

"what?"

"Auntie has also seen some Fairy Sheep believers, you seem to be different from them?"

Hearing this, Si Xianxian also secretly pricked up her ears.

"Auntie, are you talking about fighting?" Lu Ran brought out his own excuse, "I haven't graduated from high school yet, so I'm still a novice.

During this stage, Lord Xianyang allows believers to train and grow."

Si Caiqin remained silent and did not comment.

This argument obviously couldn't convince her.

Even if the god Xianyang allows new believers to practice and improve themselves and master the divine arts.
It is definitely not like what Lu Ran showed, that he rushed into the lantern formation alone and took risks to save people.

Most of the followers of the Immortal Sheep are weak and cowardly.

It is an indisputable fact that such believers are despised by others.

Even if the school forcibly puts together a team, the Fairy Sheep believers will be marginal figures.

But back then in the devil's cave, Lu Ran was the absolute leader of the team, and he was an extremely powerful one!
Lu Ran showed his combat prowess, command quality, and powerful warrior demeanor.
This has far exceeded the qualities that a high school student should possess!

No matter what, Lu Ran doesn't look like a 17-year-old student, let alone a follower of the Immortal Sheep.

"Maybe I'm just more pious." Lu Ran suddenly said.

"Oh?" Si Caiqin looked at Lu Ran.

Lu Ran shrugged his shoulders: "Master Xianyang favors me more and is willing to pamper me and allow me to fight."

Si Caiqin looked stunned, as if she had heard something incredible.

Si Xianxian suddenly said: "If he can even offer the Evil Demon Yan Paper Man, then nothing else is impossible.

His talent is about to explode, isn't it normal for him to be favored by the gods?"

The small statue of god in the house obviously limits the use of Si Xianxian's little mouth.

In her mind, a despised and lowest-ranking god would probably not be able to recruit a good disciple for thousands of years.

Suddenly one day, the fairy sheep won the jackpot and found such a big treasure.
Of course, you have to spoil him!
By the way, I really don’t know what those gods in the front row are doing!
It would be fine if you don’t want me, but can you let a believer like Lu Ran go?
Look at how Lu Ran is growing now. Even after worshipping the lowest level god, he has become as strong as this bear.

If he were any of the gods in the first rows, wouldn't he fly to the sky?
Lu Ran was a little surprised: "Have you heard my story?"

Si Caiqin: "I heard some of it when I visited your teammates' homes these days."

Lu Ran smiled and said, "When I first saw the Yan Paper Man, I was terrified."

Si Caiqin put the cup of water on the coffee table and said earnestly, "Xiao Lu, Auntie wants to ask you for a favor."

Lu Ran: "Hmm?"

Si Caiqin: “My daughter has been spoiled, which gives me a headache.

When she was little, she had two friends, but when she grew up, no one liked her anymore."

Si Xianxian curled her lips with a look of disdain.

Si Caiqin: "She is a believer of Lietian. After she went to college, no team wanted her, so she kept training on her own."

Si Xianxian didn't care: "It's good to exercise on your own, it's free and easy.

It saves you from being timid when swinging the hammer, and worrying about hurting your weak teammates."

"Don't talk!" Si Caiqin scolded, looking very disappointed in him.

When Si Caiqin looked at Lu Ran again, her expression immediately became gentle, with a hint of pleading:
"This is the first time in all these years that I've seen her willingly follow orders."

As she spoke, Si Caiqin stretched out her hands and held Lu Ran's hands: "When we were fighting, I had to beg her and coax her.

Auntie didn't expect that she would listen to you so much."

Lu Ran: “.”

Si Xianxian: “.”

This time, it was Si Xianxian's turn to look dissatisfied.

Don’t I have any face?
She looked at her mother and said, "He saved my life, shouldn't I be nicer to him?"

Si Caiqin: "I gave birth to you and raised you for 18 years, but you have never been nice to me!"

Si Xianxian felt terrible: "You, me, me."

“Xiao Lu.” Si Caiqin looked at Lu Ran again and pleaded, “My daughter is very strong and has already reached the second stage of the River Realm. You have also seen her ability.

When you gain experience in the future, if you want to find some external aid or something, can you bring her with you?

Auntie is not talented enough, and she will only be in the Xi Realm in this life, and I don’t have the ability to accompany her any longer.”

From that earnest and pleading face, Lu Ran read a sentence - How pitiful are the parents in the world.

Lu Ran turned to look at Si Xianxian.

He had witnessed the explosive output of this Lietian believer with his own eyes.

If it can be controlled well and used for your own benefit, it would be a powerful weapon, right?
What made Lu Ran feel even more amused was that Si Xianxian didn't listen to others but only to herself.
Is this a different kind of "loyalty"?

"What are you looking at?" Si Xianxian felt uncomfortable being stared at.

Lu Ran smiled and said, "No one wants you?"

Si Xianxian raised her eyebrows: "Who is not wanted? This immortal just looks down on others!"

Lu Ran nodded: "You're tough."

Si Xianxian fluttered to her feet and said, "What did you say?"

"I'm your savior, so be nicer." Lu Ran pressed his hand, "You're angry, sit down."

Si Xianxian's heart trembled slightly!
She opened her mouth and looked at Lu Ran for a long time, but no words came out.

Si Caiqin also opened her mouth slightly, looking at her daughter's appearance, but didn't say anything.
