[Are they unfriendly?] Deng Yuxiang remained expressionless, conveying her thoughts.

[It's possible.] Lu Ran immediately responded.

Deng Yuxiang, with an aloof demeanor, casually gazed at the woman in the red robe ahead, her eyes sweeping over the three men behind her.

Judging by their age, they all appeared to be in their thirties or forties.

By their aura and presence, it was clear they were far beyond ordinary people and should all belong to the River Realm!

The few naturally sensed Deng Yuxiang's scrutinizing gaze, secretly alarmed.

Anyone could tell these two were very young, possibly around twenty years old.

Or perhaps, not even twenty yet?

Yet, they both had a remarkable presence!

The young woman's demeanor was vibrant and her figure tall and straight, exuding heroic spirit between her brows.

Like a blazing sun, intense and dazzling!

The seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, though not as domineering, was equally handsome and upright.

Especially those eyes, mysterious and profound.

No hint of emotional fluctuation could be seen in them, as if they could embrace everything... or devour everything.

What is the origin of these two?

Since they dared to challenge the Divine Ruins, they must be the crème de la crème among people.

The problem is, these two are too young!

So young that it makes one apprehensive, fearing for their future...

Meanwhile, the four hidden at the back were also quietly observing the back of Lu Ran and Deng Yuxiang.

The youngest man among them appeared to be around twenty-seven or twenty-eight.

He squinted his eyes, filled with greed, observing the weapon on Lu Ran's back.

Eventually, his gaze fixed on the Magical Artifact·Blazing Phoenix Pattern Gourd attached behind Lu Ran's waist.

"Gulp." The man swallowed hard, then shifted his gaze to avoid being noticed for looking too long.

Had it not been for the apprehension toward this treasure, the four hidden in the shadows could have gotten closer.

Unfortunately, the techniques with which divine weapons and magic artifacts perceive the world differ, and getting too close might alert each other's presence.

The four hidden in the shadows were still unaware if there was a Divine Weapon among the four knives on Lu Ran's back.

But from what they observed from afar, at least the gourd casually attached to Lu Ran's waist without any bindings was certainly a treasure!

While both parties secretly assessed each other, Deng Yuxiang finally spoke, her lips parting gently:

"Last night, the roaring noise in the sky, who was it from?"

"We merely heard the sound, never saw the person." The woman in the red robe shook her head with a smile.

She continued: "However, since such a mysterious existence caused such an earth-shattering noise, we both already have an answer in our hearts, don't we?"

Deng Yuxiang remained expressionless, continuing to ask bluntly: "How do we return?"

"Return? To where?"

"Home, to the Human World."

"Hehehehehe." The woman in the red robe suddenly laughed, the bitterness in her smile seemed genuine.

She raised her head, staring at the peak covered in a sea of clouds, and sighed deeply: "Daoist, you've stumped me. We've come so far, can we still find our way back?"

Deng Yuxiang silently watched the woman, truly surprised at how powerful this sentence was.

Just one sentence, yet it brought tears of laughter to her?

"Pardon me." The woman in the red robe quickly regained her composure, nodding apologetically at Deng Yuxiang, her eyes filled with doubt, "Daoist, are you two really disciples of the Immortal Sheep?"

Deng Yuxiang softly said: "What if we are, what if we aren't?"

The woman in the red robe appeared utterly puzzled: "Forgive my boldness, I truly can't imagine disciples of the Immortal Sheep coming to this world.

Moreover, most members of the Immortal Sheep sect are gentle and friendly, averse to conflict.

I observe you two with an awe-inspiring presence and unyielding dignity, unlike disciples of Lord Immortal Sheep."

Deng Yuxiang's lips curved slightly, a smile that was not quite a smile: "You are quite attached to our identity as believers, aren't you?"

The woman in the red robe's smile froze, then she resumed her gentle smile: "Forgive my boldness, I am indeed curious."

A black-robed man behind her, with a cold expression, spoke up: "Young ones!

Our village chief's Lady has shown you respect and sincerity, don't be ungrateful!"

"Stand down!" The woman in the red robe frowned, reprimanding sternly.

"I've had it up to here with you!" Another short-haired, burly man stepped forward, "What are you pretending for?"

"Yan Biao!" The woman in the red robe's expression changed slightly, hastily moving forward to stop him.

It seemed the man's temper was impulsive, not one to be talked down with words alone.

"Ignorant fools!" Yan Biao shouted hoarsely, "Think this is Da Xia?

Think you're so mighty? Everyone has to worship you?

Who the hell isn't from the River Realm?"

Yan Biao seemed truly infuriated; even as the woman in the red robe stepped forward to stop him, he continued to push forward.

The woman in the red robe reprimanded loudly: "Jia Yan Biao!!"

[Heh, here it comes.] Lu Ran's cold laughter resonated in Deng Yuxiang's mind.

Deng Yuxiang watched coldly as the two shoved each other, then heard a soft exclamation from the woman in the red robe.

Jia Yan Biao became even more furious with his tirade, remarkably heavy-handed, he violently shoved the woman in the red robe away.

"Madam!"

"Lady Luo!" Including Jia Yan Biao, the three black-robed men simultaneously shouted and hurried forward.

The woman in the red robe, referred to as "Lady Luo," was hurled sideways towards where Deng Yuxiang stood.

"Sss!!"

Suddenly, a blood-colored aura surged from Lady Luo's feet, resembling a churning blood sea.

Prisoner Demon Divine Skill·Blood Sea Chaos!

This technique can disrupt the Divine Power within the target, interfering with their casting of spells.

The woman in the red robe finally revealed her true colors!

The malicious look in her eyes towards Deng Yuxiang was in stark contrast to her once gentle smile.

The sudden change of face was even unbelievable to behold.

Why?

Both belonged to the Human Clan and were meeting for the first time without deep-seated hatred, why immediately resort to killing?

However, by the time many people had asked such questions, it was already too late.

"Whoosh~ whoosh~ whoosh~"

At the instant Lady Luo unleashed the Divine Technique·Blood Sea Chaos, several phantom daggers shot out from the forest behind Lu Ran and Deng Yuxiang.

The sharp whistling sounds were enough to make one's scalp tingle!

These daggers, all phantom-like, clearly were Sha Blades from the Divine Technique·Slaughter Blade.

It was evident the hidden figures were disciples under the Third-class God·Nuo Sha Sect.

And these Sha Blades thrusting from all angles were all aimed at Lu Ran.

It was clear that the two teams, one in front and one behind, had divided their roles very clearly.

"Sss!!"

At the same time, a thick white mist surged from under Lu Ran's feet, diffusing in all directions.

Jade-faced Snake Evil Technique·Immortal Scene!

This technique is a Purification Skill.

"Huh?"

"Wha...what?" Everyone's expressions changed dramatically!

This young man actually reacted so quickly?

He and Lady Luo struck almost simultaneously!

So, these two young people... had they already detected something amiss?

Then why didn't they run away?

Moreover, what kind of Divine Technique is this?

Immortal Hoof?

If it were Immortal Hoof, why didn't the youth move?

If it were Immortal Hoof, why would the white mist spread rapidly in all directions?

It's not right! Something's off!

"This guy?"

"He..." In the hushed voices of the Nuo Sha disciples, Lu Ran continued casting spells, his figure swaying repeatedly.

From beginning to end, Lu Ran never turned around, yet it was as though he had eyes on the back of his head, dodging one Sha Blade after another!

"Heh." Deng Yuxiang snorted coldly, reaching forward with one hand.

She stood proudly, directly facing the surging blood sea!

The fierce blood sea rushing at her was supposed to submerge her ankles, causing her Divine Power to run amok and be undetectable.

Yet the Immortal Fog would not allow it!

The dense Immortal Fog, also spreading out, not only blocked the blood sea but ferociously purified the battlefield's environment, expanding its shelter range.

The sea of fog thus forced the blood sea to retreat, bearing down on it!

"Whoosh~ whoosh~!"

Several Wind Blades flew out rapidly from Deng Yuxiang's palm, directly stabbing at Lady Luo in the red robe.

Lady Luo's pupils trembled: !!!

Wind Blade?

This little wretch was indeed not a disciple of the Immortal Sheep!

She was actually a Believer of the Second-class God·North Wind?!

"Such cunning!" Lady Luo gritted her silver teeth, squeezing out her words from between her teeth, the hem of her red robe fluttering.

The surprise attack failed, the initiative wasn't seized...

But so what?

A full eight highly experienced, battle-hardened River Realm Great Powers couldn't take down two wet-behind-the-ears kids?

"Ding! Ding! Ding..."

The Night Charm Blade connected in a string, piercing the Prisoner Demon Divine Skill·Blood Evil Garment!

The three black-robed men, led by Jia Yan Biao, were initially faking concern for Lady Luo, rushing forward to support her; at this moment their true nature was revealed, heading straight towards Deng Yuxiang.

But at the next moment, everyone froze.

"Whoosh!!"

A gale suddenly arose.

But it wasn't the Tornado of the North Wind Sect, rather a straightforward, pure gust of wind bellowing forward?

Night Charm Evil Technique·Night Wind Assault!

This... how is this possible?

Everyone was utterly bewildered!

The North Wind Divine Skill could adaptively change? Could it be utilized to such an extent?

Deng Yuxiang's lips raised slightly.

Her outstretched hand was tender and fair, her fingers slender.

Beautiful,

Yet it wove a nightmare for the few criminals who intended to kill and rob.

"Sss—"

At her feet, the Immortal Fog churned, unexpectedly streaming forth!

When everyone believed her to be a formidable North Wind disciple, they had naturally prepared mentally.

Yet Deng Yuxiang's sudden Immortal Hoof made everyone widen their eyes in disbelief!

"What is this?"

"How could... watch out!"

"Lady Luo!!" Exclamations arose, as countless blood chains suddenly appeared, attempting to intercept the enemy.

"Crack! Crack! Crack..."

The sound of chains shattering came in succession.

The dazzling girl wielded a broken blade as she advanced, leaving a long Sword Trace on the blade!

The attack power of the Sword Trace was exceptionally formidable, ruthlessly severing the crisscrossing blood chains on her path.

Night Charm Evil Technique·Night Shadow Charm Trace!

An unparalleled single-target assassination skill!

In the blink of an eye, Deng Yuxiang, with the broken blade in hand, was already before Lady Luo.

Lady Luo's heart leaped to her throat, she cried out in terror: "How dare you!!"

"Whoosh!!"

Her feet planted firmly on the ground, a countless number of blood-colored chains shot forth!

The sheer number of chains was uncountable, densely packed, shooting in every direction without dead angles.

Prisoner Demon Divine Skill·Prisoner Demon Array!

This technique was never meant to be used lightly.

Because the God·Prisoner Demon created this technique for believers to have the means to hold off hundreds in heavy encirclement!

And the utterly terrified Lady Luo used her trump card facing just a single attack from Deng Yuxiang.

"Whoosh!"

Deng Yuxiang's figure abruptly halted, seemingly devoid of any inertia.

Leaving everyone dumbstruck!

Her lips curled up slightly, a smile of pure delight.

Because...

Suddenly someone appeared out of nowhere, flashing above Lady Luo's head.

Above her head!

Here was devoid of the defense from the red robe, and the endless blood chains.

"Ssh!"

A flash of brilliance, the light dazzling.

Soul Splitting Power, power maxed out!

The tip of the blade pierced downwards, slicing through the layer of Water Flow Armor on Lady Luo's head.

Forcing its way into the crown of Lady Luo's skull!

"Ah...ugh." Lady Luo's scream of agony was cut short the moment it began.

Her face contorted, eyes bulging, filled with terror.

Under her feet, the ceaseless blood chains shooting in all directions abruptly became "limp," sagging lifelessly to the ground.

Lu Ran, with both hands on the hilt, stood behind Lady Luo, piercing through her body.

Nailing her to the ground.

In an instant, silence enveloped the battlefield.

All the Prison Demon disciples and Nuo Sha disciples seemed to hear the intense beating of their own hearts.

Lu Ran turned his head, looking towards the ghastly pale Jia Yan Biao in the distance, smiled, and said:

"Who the hell isn't from the River Realm, eh?"

Today, let me tell you what you are in the River Realm.

And what I am in the River Realm!
