Chapter 649 The Flower of the Other Shore
The stars and the moon move, and night and day alternate.

A beautiful morning glow appeared on the horizon, and a red sun gradually emerged above the sea level in the east.

It is quiet inside Yunhaiju.

On the rocking chair in the courtyard, a young man covered with a loose white robe was still sleeping soundly.

"Whoo~"

The sea breeze blew, causing the rocking chair to sway gently.

"Hmm." Lu Ran opened his sleepy eyes, and his arms were empty, with the beauty nowhere to be seen.

He took a moment to react and asked softly, "Where are the people?"

[Madam is in the backyard, practicing swordplay with two guards.] A voice imprinted itself in my mind.

"Oh." Lu Ran sniffed and indeed there was a faint scent of plum blossoms passing through the hall and drifting from the backyard to the front yard.

Xiao Ruyi is really hardworking!
Getting up so early to practice swordplay, I wonder who he is preparing to perform for?
Oh, it’s me!

That's okay~
Lu Ran smiled contentedly, looking lazy, and tightened the loose robe covering his body.

Let the rocking chair rock you gently.

He slowly closed his eyes, as if he was going to take a nap.

Just as he was in a daze, another voice message entered his mind: [Master, Elder Lu wants to see you.]

"Well, Elder Lu, please?" Lu Ran suddenly opened his eyes and woke up instantly. "Where is it?"

[In the woods outside the courtyard, Ying Er stopped him. ]

"Please come in!" Lu Ran immediately stood up and looked outside the fence. In the lush forest, he really saw a white-haired old man in a gray robe.

Lu Ran was overjoyed!

Is that an old man?
No, that's a flower!

A flower from the other shore that will send him back to the human world!
"Tell the madam." Lu Ran straightened his clothes and went out to greet him, "Elder Lu, good morning!"

Now Lu Yuan also has an official position.

Senior Lu’s request is simple. He is used to a leisurely life and doesn’t want to be disturbed too much.

Lu Ran gave him the position of elder of the Ran Sect, which gave him a high status within the sect. He did not have to take care of any affairs and could just live a leisurely life.

"I hope I didn't disturb the Sect Master's rest?" Lu Yuan said with a smile.

"No, no! I woke up early. As martial artists, we must get up at the first sign of trouble!" Lu Ran boasted as he led Lu Yuan into the fenced yard.

Lu Yuan still smiled and didn't expose her.

The two of them came to a corner of the courtyard and sat down in front of a stone table.

"Elder Lu is here." A cold voice came, and a fairy in a white dress floated over.

"Madam." Lu Yuan responded immediately. Looking at the woman's state, he realized who the dancer Lu Ran was talking about.

"Liuhuo, serve the tea." Jiang Ruyi instructed softly and sat down at the table.

Lu Ran had also grown up a bit, and was a little calmer. He asked with concern, "Elder Lu, you have lived in Yunhai Cliff for a while. Are you used to it?"

"It's a habit, a habit." Lu Yuan smiled and nodded, "I have been traveling in the mountains for more than 30 years, but you are the first one who dares to settle down by the sea."

Lu Ran smiled and said, "We have the Black Carp Clan and the Sea Shark Clan to firmly control this sea area, so don't worry, Elder.

At most, a raging sea flaming dragon would occasionally fly over, and Goddess Luo would shoot it down with a few arrows."

Lu Yuan did not respond, but sighed and spoke in a literary manner: "The 800-meter-high cliff stands tall, like a screen dividing the sea and the land, and the waves below the cliff are as loud as thunder.

Such a magnificent place can only be controlled by someone like the Sect Master."

Lu Ran: “.”

The world in the eyes of Chenying disciples is indeed different.

"Senior, please stop praising him or he will become proud." Jiang Ruyi said with a smile.

Having said that, in Lu Yuan's eyes, the woman was not being sincere.

Hearing Lu Ran being praised, she seemed to feel very happy, even prouder than Lu Ran?
"I don't deserve it." Lu Ran also hurriedly said modestly.

"The Sect Master deserves it!" Lu Yuan showed his emotion, "Before I came to Yunhai Cliff, I never thought that the Sect Master could do this."

In the mountains, all kinds of ugly faces can be seen everywhere.

But there are very few people who are kind-hearted and willing to help others.

Lu Yuan still remembered that when he was in Yunzhujian, after Lu Ran said that the Ran Clan had a very positive atmosphere, he asked, "Like Wuji Peak and the Forbidden City?"

At that time, Lu Ran smiled inexplicably.

Now Lu Yuan completely understood why Lu Ran smiled.

Because that Forbidden City belongs to Lu Ran!

The famous Lord of the Forbidden City should belong to the Ran Clan.

The huge stone statue of He Qifeng stands in the Feixian Hall, and is worshipped by the disciples of Ranmen all day long.

"Don't praise me." Lu Ran, who was always thick-skinned, was humble for a rare time, "I'm really getting cocky."

"Okay, okay." Lu Yuan's expression became more serious. "Today is July 13th. What do you think of returning to the human world on the night of July 15th?"

"July 15th?" Lu Ran raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Night." Lu Yuan emphasized the word.

Every fifteenth night is when the evil spirits come to feast on the human world.

Throughout the year, the night of July 15th is the most special, as it is the night when evil spirits invade most fiercely.

"I'm fine with either, but why did Elder Lu choose this night in particular?" Lu Ran asked puzzledly.

Lu Yuan explained: "The movement of the Heavenly Grade Bianhua is very large, and the fluctuation of divine power is extremely violent. If I send the Sect Master back when the world is calm, it may attract the attention of Chen Ying."

Lu Ran nodded: "I understand."

It is easier to fish in muddy waters!
Lu Yuan said again: "I will teleport the Sect Master to the south of Tianmen Mountain in the Southern Province of Great Xia. How about that?"

"Okay!" Lu Ran nodded again.

As long as he returns to the human world, for Lu Ran, going anywhere is just a matter of one step.

"Madam." Liuhuo came over with a bamboo tea tray and called softly.

Since Lu Ran lit up the map of Yunzhujian, many items in the house have been replaced with bamboo products. Jiang Ruyi waved away the guards, poured a cup of tea for Lu Yuan himself, and handed it to him: "I heard that Elder Lu was forced to go into the mountains, and his wife and daughter stayed in the human world.

Do you want to ask Lu Ran to go and take care of it?"

"I am extremely grateful!" Madam Ranmen took the initiative to bring up the matter, and Lu Yuan immediately stood up and saluted with his fists.

"Please sit down, Senior Lu, there's no need to do this." Lu Ran hurriedly held down his hand until the old man sat down, and then asked about the information of his wife and daughter.

"My wife's name is Wen Lanxin, Lanxin means kind and graceful." When Lu Yuan mentioned his wife, his expression softened a little.

As gentle as jade, with a kind heart and a graceful character.

What a nice name.

Lu Ran thought secretly, and recalled the exquisite bamboo carving in the bamboo house in Yunzhujian.

The woman’s gentle smile is still vivid in my mind.

"She is the same age as me. If she were still alive, she would be seventy-four years old." Lu Yuan's tone was obviously a little depressed.

Lu and Jiang remained silent.

In the face of old man Time, all words of comfort will seem pale and powerless.

Even in peacetime, no one dared to ensure that a 74-year-old man was still alive.

Not to mention the human world where there are wars every month.

Afterwards, Lu Yuan described his wife's appearance in detail, but his impression only stayed from more than 30 years ago.

After more than thirty years of hardships, what will Ms. Wen Lanxin look like?
No one knows.

The atmosphere in the courtyard became much heavier.

After Lu Yuan finished his story, he fell silent.

After a long while, Jiang Ruyi personally added tea to the old man, and her voice became a little softer: "Where is Senior Lu's daughter?"

Lu Yuan's expression darkened: "I don't know my daughter's name."

Jiang Ruyi poured more tea silently and said nothing more.

Lu Yuan looked at the lush forest outside the fenced courtyard and spoke slowly: "When I entered the mountains, my daughter had just been born, and my husband and I hadn't decided on her name yet."

Lu Ran caught a word and asked, "Does she have a nickname?"

"My nickname is Huang'er, the Huang in phoenix."

Lu Huang'er?
Lu Ran nodded secretly. Just by looking at the nickname, one could feel the parents' high expectations for their child.

Lu Yuan recalled the warm and loving years at that time: "The word huang is too big, and my husband and I have been arguing about whether to use this name.

So, I just treat it as a nickname for now."

Lu Ran agreed with this.

The word "Phoenix" is indeed very big and has a good meaning.

The king of birds, it is also a symbol of auspiciousness.

"If Huang'er is still alive, she would be thirty-seven years old." Lu Yuan looked at the leaves swaying in the wind, "I wonder if she is married.

Do you have your own family and children?"

Lu Ran asked, "Where does Senior Lu live? Also, do you have any relatives, friends, or former comrades-in-arms? The more detailed the information, the better, so that I can find them more easily."

Lu Yuan was silent for a long time, then he said, "The last time I returned to the human world, I was teleported directly to my home, but it had completely changed.

When I tried to look for it again, the gods had already found me."

Lu Ran's heart sank.

Yes, more than 30 years have passed, and the city’s buildings, streets, etc. have changed.

Jiang Ruyi said: "Elder Lu, please tell us in detail."

Lu Yuan recalled everything from more than 30 years ago, too much of which had already become blurred: "My husband and I are both from southern Hunan and once lived in Yueyang City."

Until the sun was high in the sky, Lu Yuan and Lu Ran agreed to meet again on the night of the fifteenth, and then left.

Looking at the old man's lonely back, Lu Ran felt a little uncomfortable.

Jiang Ruyi said softly, "Do you want to bring two shadow guards with you when you return to the human world this time? It will be easier for us to find someone."

Hearing this, the Zhong sisters who were guarding in secret couldn't help but feel their hearts pounding.

If possible, who wouldn’t want to go back to the human world?

"Hmm" Lu Ran hesitated for a moment.

Shadow three and shadow four cannot be brought.

He did not doubt the loyalty of the two, but the younger sister of the Zhong family was more lively and Ying Si had just joined the company.

If there is one shadow or two shadows, there is absolutely no problem.

The eldest and second sisters of the Zhong family are both calm and composed people.

Jiang Ruyi added: "The Shadow Guards are only in the Jiang realm, their strength realm is lower, and they can communicate better with ordinary people."

Lu Ran couldn't help but shook his head and smiled.

Just Jiangjing?

Only?
Although it doesn't sound right, it does make sense.

"Okay." Lu Ran finally nodded.

Bring along the two protectors, Nightmare and Shadow, just in case.

Live together!

[Master! Master, do you have time?] Suddenly, a thought came, and the voice was exactly the same as Lu Ran's.

[Sunlight?] Lu Ran's heart skipped a beat. Has the challenge from Liyuan Sect come to a conclusion?
【Master, come quickly! 】

Lu Ran suddenly panicked and asked quickly: [What's going on? ]

Xiaguang Sword Spirit: [Emperor Wu Tian won! He killed the leader of Tiangang Hall! Mr. Conglong asked you to come quickly and devour the dead souls.]

Lu Ran: “.”

You want to scare me to death!
