Chapter 107: The Sheng Zis Pat!

Li Ran left, leaving behind a pile of corpses.

Qin Ruyan stood in the pile of the corpses, not daring to move.

After a full fifteen minutes had passed would she be certain that Li Ran would not return, she put away the Blood Ignition Seal and heaved a sigh of relief.

As the Holy Maiden of the Joyous Unity Sect, she was ranked third on the Heavenly Devil Ranking, second only to Li Ran and that pervert from Death Prison.

She was a naturally seductive figure, a hot-shot amongst Devil Sect younger generations.

However, when facing Li Ran, she felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

He was at Nascent Soul…

Once in a million genius!

A bone-seeping terror arose in her heart when she faced those cold eyes.

At that moment, she finally understood what Lin Langyue was feeling.

If the girl hadn’t told the truth, Qin Ruyan would have been killed!

“Although I was curious about him, I didn’t expect to meet him in such a way.” Qin Ruyan had a bitter expression.

These disciples of the Joyous Unity Sect sought their death.

They had brought this upon themselves. They did not heed her advice. Even if the sect master were to hear of this matter, he would only say that they deserved to die.

“The question is, how am I going to give Leng Wuyan a gift?”

Qin Ruyan rubbed her forehead in frustration.

She didn’t want to face that monster Li Ran anymore…

And there was one thing she could not understand.

“Why is Li Ran’s servant a top-grade beauty with a dual-cultivation physique?” Qin Ruyan’s head was filled with question marks.

Secluded Temple…

Li Ran was fiddling in the study room. From time to time, sparks would shoot out from him. A stack of discarded talisman paper was seen beside him.

The surprise he wanted to give Leng Wuyan was very easy to achieve.

However, if he wanted to achieve the effect he wanted, he still needed to constantly test. He had to complete it before the Frost Origin Festival.

Knock knock knock.

When the door was knocked, Aqin walked in with a pile of gifts.

“Lord Sheng Zi, another female disciple has come to give you a New Year’s gift.”

Li Ran didn’t even look back and said, “Take what you like and throw the rest away.”

“Oh, I understand.”

She placed the gift in the corner.

The gifts in the room were piled up into a small mountain.

All kinds of beautifully wrapped gift boxes, exquisite flowers, handmade food… nearly stacked up to the ceiling…

These were all sent by the disciples from his sect.

Ever since Lu Xinran started showing off, she said that Li Ran not only touched her head but also said that he liked the gift she gave him.

The eyes of the other female disciples turned red.

The rumor that the Sheng Zi would pat their heads as long as they gave him a gift grew widespread.

Li Ran was already very popular in the sect, but now, everyone was giving him a gift.

Every day, he would be completely blocked off the door to exit his room.

Among them, there was no lack of a hundred-year-old follower, both female, and male.

Li Ran was so frightened that he closed the door to thank the guest.

All the gifts were received by Aqin on his behalf. These past few days, she had been exhausted.

“Lord Sheng Zi, the sect forbids marriage. Aren’t these people afraid of being punished by the sect master?” Aqin couldn’t help complaining.

Li Ran shook his head and smiled.

The Sect Master was already with him. How could she still have the nerve to punish others?

Moreover, even though the Youluo Temple was strictly disciplined, there must be sufficient evidence.

It was only a gift and head patting. This could be explained as actions of fellow disciples, which were even not within the scope of the prohibition.

At this moment, the sound of knocking could be heard once again.

Aqin opened the door and asked cautiously,  “What’s the matter?”

The attendant outside said, “The Sect Master has given the order for the Sheng Zi to go to the Sacred Hall.”

“Oh, okay.” Seeing that he wasn’t here to deliver gifts, Aqin heaved a sigh of relief.

“And…” The female deacon took out a small box with a bow tied around it. Her face was slightly red as she said, “This is my New Year’s gift to the Sheng Zi.”

Aqin: “……”

She took the gift from the crack of the door. “I’ll get the gift. I’ll pass it over to the Sheng Zi for you.”

The female attendant said unwillingly, “Then, what about the head pat?”

Aqin hesitated for a moment before carefully extending her hand. “If you don’t mind, why don’t you let me pat you?”

The female deacon sighed and turned to leave in disappointment.

Demon Peak…

Youluo Temple…

Leng Wuyan sat on the phoenix chair, sizing up the woman in the middle of the hall.

Qin Ruyan bowed and said respectfully, “Joyous Unity Sect’s disciple Qin Ruyan greets Sect Leader Leng.”

Leng Wuyan nodded and asked curiously, “You came alone?”

After all, she was the Holy Maiden of a top-tier sect. This sort of display was too low-key.

Qin Ruyan felt bitter in her heart.

That was because the other disciples were all killed by your disciple…

If it wasn’t for Liu Xunhuan telling her to deliver the gift, she wouldn’t have dared to enter Mount Xianling.

Even so, she still took a few days to arrive in Cold Wind City.

But how could she let Leng Wuyan know about this?

“I’m accustomed to traveling alone. Sect Leader Leng, don’t mind me,” Qin Ruyan said.

Leng Wuyan nodded. She didn’t suspect her.

Following that, she presented a storage ring. “Sect Master has ordered me to give you six Numinous treasures and six Immortal materials. I wish you all the best and that your path to immortality will be eternal.”

Leng Wuyan nodded. “Thank you.”

Although she didn’t like the people of the Joyous Unity Sect and even loathed them, she still had to put the sect’s interests first.

The attendant at the side walked forward and took the storage ring.

“Ran’er is here?” Leng Wuyan asked.

The bystanders whispered, “The Sheng Zi is on his way here.”

Hearing this, Qin Ruyan could not help but shudder.

Li Ran was coming?

She hastily cupped her hands and said, “Sect Leader Leng has many things to do. I won’t bother you, so I’ll be taking my leave.”

“You’re leaving now?” Leng Wuyan said with bewilderment, “You’re too anxious. Since you’ve come to Mount Xianling, why don’t you stay for a few days.”

Qin Ruyan repeatedly shook her head. “Thank you for your kindness, Sect Master Leng. I have already completed the Sect Master’s order. I also need to go back early to report.”

“All right.” Leng Wuyan didn’t doubt her and nodded.

Just as Qin Ruyan was about to let out a sigh of relief, a familiar voice sounded from behind her. “I greet Master.”

Her scalp went numb, she became petrified on the spot.

Leng Wuyan said, “Ran’er, it’s good that you’ve come. This is the Holy Maiden of the Joyous Unity Sect, Qin Ruyan. She’s here to give me a gift.”

Li Ran glanced at her and said expressionlessly, “Holy Maiden Qin is too polite.”

Qin Ruyan’s eyes flashed, “Greetings, Sheng Zi.”

Leng Wuyan said, “She’s in a hurry to rush back to her sect. Since you’re here, escort her down the mountain.”

After all, she was a top-tier sect’s Holy Maiden, so she couldn’t be lacking in etiquette.

Qin Ruyan hurriedly waved her hand. “I don’t want to trouble anyone, Master Li, I remember the way here…”

“Holy Maiden Qin is too polite.” Li Ran smiled and extended his hand. “Please.”

Qin Ruyan gulped, she was on the verge of tears.
