Chapter 603: Closer to God
Dusk.

Lu Ran took off the black and gold imperial robe, put on a simpler white robe, and went to Xunluo couple’s residence inside the cliff - Xunluo Residence.

He was covered in the beautiful sunset glow, and he sorted out his thoughts, trying to restrain his aura as much as possible, and then he opened a teleportation mirror in the courtyard.

Soon, the Xunluo couple walked out of the mirror.

The mother is holding her son and the father is holding his daughter, what a happy scene!
What is not satisfactory is.
The children suddenly burst into tears!
"My dear, it's okay, it's okay." Luo Ying held her six-year-old son in her arms and coaxed him with a gentle tone.

Xun Yifei also comforted his frightened daughter: "Big brother is a good man."

Lu Ran was at a loss. Amid the cries, he didn't dare to say a word and his figure disappeared.

Leaving behind a family of four in the courtyard.

Even so, it took mom and dad a long time to comfort their two children.

A child who was only six or seven years old was obviously unable to withstand the pressure from a strange, powerful sea realm figure.

Even though Lu Ran was very friendly and tried his best to restrain his aura, it was still useless.

His existence will make weak creatures instinctively fear.

The Xun Luo couple also used their actual performance to confirm a fact: only parents' unconditional love for their children can fight against the mysterious rules and break through the constraints of the laws of the world of gods and demons.

"The Sect Master won't be angry, right?" Luo Ying wiped the tears from her son's face with concern and turned to look at her husband.

"No." Xun Yifei shook his head and comforted his wife.

For such a long time, everyone has seen Lu Ran's temper and various behaviors.

Luo Ying held her son in her arms and said softly, "I'll go to Yunhaiju later and apologize to him."

Suddenly, a gentle voice came: "That's not necessary."

Xun Luo and the other two felt a tightness in their hearts and turned around to look subconsciously.

There was no one at the stone table and stone bench in the corner of the courtyard, but the young man's voice could be clearly heard from there.

Lu Ran didn’t leave?

His figure disappeared. Did he not teleport away, but became invisible?
"Master?" Luo Ying called softly.

Xun Yifei was shocked. He had been taking care of the children at home recently and had no idea when the sect master had acquired this technique.

Xun Yifei had been prepared for Lu Ran's strength, but at this moment, when Lu Ran existed in this form
As a father and a husband, his heart was beating violently!

"They have grown taller since the last time we met." Lu Ran said in a low voice.

"Hmm?" The little boy looked over curiously with tears in his eyes.

The little girl opened her big eyes and looked at the empty stone table. Then, her tightly pursed mouth opened again:

"Wow."

Lu Ran: “.”

excuse me.

I'd better go.

Lu Ran said goodbye, and this time, he was really leaving.

When he reappeared, he was already sitting on the edge of the cliff, with his legs hanging over the edge.

"Ugh"

After an unknown amount of time, Lu Ran let out a long sigh.

If one day I could really return to Daxia, how would I survive?

Human society cannot bear its own existence.

Even though the believers make up the majority of the population, the people living there are mostly from the river realm and below.

Have friends like Deng Yutang, Tian Tian, ​​and Chang Ying been promoted to Jiangjing?
Regardless of promotion or not, can they still face themselves as before?
I can only follow in my mother's footsteps, stay in a mountain all year round, and bid farewell to my past life completely.

It is too much to even think about touching a little raccoon like I did in middle school.
"Whoo~"

The sea breeze blows.

Lu Ran raised his hand, tidied his hair that was messed up by the wind, lowered his head and smiled.

My future self can only be stronger and more powerful.

Therefore,
Even if I return to the human world, I will no longer belong to it.

What a sad reality.

"Master." A female voice came from behind.

Lu Ran turned his head slightly and pretended to listen.

"You are very depressed." Yan Shuangzi said softly.

Lu Ran remained silent and didn't respond.

Yan Shuangzi thought for a moment and comforted him softly, "They are just too young. They will be fine when they grow up."

Lu Ran smiled and said, "Guess, who grew up faster, or who advanced faster?"

Yan Shuangzi: “.”

Lu Ran looked at the sea again: "Do you think there is a magical weapon in the world that can hide one's aura?"

He didn't have to make friends with the two little guys.

He just wanted to return to Yuxiang City, live the same life as before, and feel the atmosphere of his hometown again.

But obviously, this road has been broken.

Yan Shuangzi thought for a moment and responded, "Since there are magical instruments like the Black Jade Tiger Talisman that increase power, there should also be magical instruments that hide power."

"That makes sense!" Lu Ran nodded. Holy Spirit Mountain is so big, there are many magical weapons, who knows, maybe he can encounter one?

Lu Ran thought secretly and stood up slowly: "Let's go back. We will set off south tomorrow morning. Go back to Evil Shadow Residence tonight and have a good rest."

Yan Shuangzi said nothing.

Lu Ran ignored her silent protest and disappeared in a flash.

The next second, he felt a hint of coolness.

The air was filled with light frost, mixed with fallen plum blossoms, emitting a faint fragrance.

Lu Ran stood in front of the bedroom closet, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath.

The fragrance of plum blossoms.

He enjoyed himself for a moment and felt much better. He walked around the screen, came to the bedroom window and looked out.

There were two tall figures in the courtyard, each more graceful than the other.

Fairy Jiang is learning sword dancing.

As a master of swordsmanship, her basic skills are impeccable and she learns very smoothly.

Leng Xuanshuang taught very seriously, her body was covered with frosty plum blossoms, and her dance was graceful and sad.

"Don't peek!" Jiang Ruyi noticed the figure behind the window and stopped immediately.

Lu Ran: “.”

Jiang Ruyi simply sheathed his sword and said, "That's all for today. Let's go back."

"Yes, ma'am." Leng Xuanshuang responded respectfully, bowed to Lu Ran behind the window, and turned to leave.

She doesn't have her own residence yet and is currently living with Si Xianxian.

"Don't!" Lu Ran said dissatisfiedly.

Jiang Ruyi walked towards the door, completely ending Lu Ran's thoughts.

She came to the bedroom and saw Lu Ran's unhappy look. She couldn't help but curl her lips and asked directly:
"Have you picked up the children?"

"Ah."

"How about it?"

"I overestimated myself." Lu Ran shrugged helplessly.

Jiang Ruyi's smile faded, and she came to Lu Ran's side, saying gently, "This is not your fault."

She could understand why Lu Ran was struggling and feeling distressed.

The higher a person stands, the less he can hear the suffering of the living beings below him.

The closer you are to God, the farther you are from people.

But Lu Ran is very special.

Since he was promoted to Jiangjing, he has been skipping classes and has not experienced a major change in his mentality.

Human nature is not dead.

Today,

He is closer to God than anyone else, yet he is also closer to man than all the mighty powers of the rivers and seas in the world.

This is undoubtedly a great blessing for the human race!

After all, Lu Ran wants to overthrow the rule of gods and demons and become a new "Yunhai".

"Don't think about that." Jiang Ruyi took his arm and changed the subject, "I just had a chat with Xuan Shuang."

"What to talk about?" Lu Ran asked casually.

"Her cultivation path has come to an end. Her talent is not enough to allow her to go further." Jiang Ruyi stated a cruel fact.

Lu Ran nodded silently.

After all, Leng Xuanshuang is a disciple of a fifth-class god, and it is already very good that he can reach the fourth stage of Jiang Realm.

If she hadn't met Lu Ran, she would have been stuck at this level for the rest of her life.

Lu Ran naturally has a way to change his fate.

It allows her to bind to the stone sculpture, thereby improving her cultivation aptitude.

Lu Ran thought for a moment and said, "After I defeat my opponent with the Eight Desolate Swords, we will take some time to go to the north."

The lair of the evil demon, the Ice Plum Queen, is in the northern part of Holy Spirit Mountain.

In the snowy forest.

Jiang Ruyi asked, "It's been three or four days. Where has the other party gone?"

Lu Ran pondered and said, "According to the location information provided by Bahuang, I have a hunch."

"what?"

"We will meet each other at Qianhua Ridge."

Say a few words:
1. Ever since the day Lu Ran set out, Bahuangdao has never returned to Yunhai Cliff.

Lu Ran went home twice and was very cautious. Once he let Bahuang stay in Langgu Village, and once he let Bahuang stay in Langhua Village.

2. The Thousand Bone Body has problems with twisting bones and pulling flesh. The divine method describes it very clearly. On the basis of special bones, it provides protection for the flesh and internal organs.

Stop talking about exposing information, stop fussing about flesh and blood issues, the article explains everything very clearly. (scratching my head)
