Cultivators were all stunned.
Li Ran was a complete mad man.
Of the four great sects, only Zen Master Shi Kong had escaped the calamity. He had crushed the other three.
Ji Xingyun, the head of Yin Corpse Dao, was seriously injured and dying. He still did not know whether he was alive or dead.
In terms of arrogance, no one in the younger generation could beat him.
But the woman on stage was different.
She was the Leader of Myriad Sword Pavilion, Chu Lingchuan!
She was a superpower on equal footing with Leng Wuyan and Chen Yundao. Even those three peak Heavenly Tribulation experts had to pretend to be grand children in front of her!
Did Li run still dare to contradict her?
He had gone a little overboard!
"Has Sheng Zi Li gone mad?"
"That's an Emperor-level ah. A single thought can annihilate him!"
"Although Chu Lingchuan is in the Righteous Path, she's definitely not an easy character to talk to!"
"The number of mighty figures who died under her hands is no less than Leng Wuyan!"
"It's said that even the killer Daoist would retreat if he saw her!"
"It's over. Li Ran is dead this time!"
…….
Cultivators below were discussed.
Some people were worried, while others were gloating. Because of their different standpoints, everyone's thoughts were mixed.
But there was one thing everyone agreed on: Li Ran was courting death!
…….
On the stage.
Bai Jiangye gave a thumbs up and said in a low voice, "Sheng Zi Li, you're really a man."
After he finished speaking, he hid far away, afraid that blood would splash onto his body.
As for Feng Wanjiang, he looked excited and sneered.
Zen Master Shi Kong sat in his chair in a daze as if he had yet to relax from the shock of the Chief Monk being kicked away.
Only Lin Langyue and Qin Ruyan remained by Li Ran's side.
Two women's eyes were firm as they gripped the sect token tightly in their hands, ready to seek help from the sect at any time.
Chu Lingchuan's eyes were cold.
After a long while, she said, "Sheng Zi Li, how do you want to compete fairly?"
Li Ran said indifferently, "Naturally, it's according to the rules of the a.s.sembly."
"Other three sects have already given up. There's still the Youluo Temple. and the Myriad Sword Pavilion left. As for which sect to join, it should be Shen Ning's choice."
Chu Lingchuan frowned slightly.
She didn't know the relationship between Shen Ning and Li Ran.
However, from Li Ran's tone, it seemed that he was confident and wouldn't take the risk.
One Emperor-level, one Deity Transformation. Normal people knew how to choose.
However, Shen Ning was just a little kid. How could she know what level of status she had?
Moreover, this son of a b.i.t.c.h was handsome. He was very attractive to young ladies. Perhaps Shen Ning would really choose him.
Chu Lingchuan shook her head and said, "This little girl is only six or seven years old. She's at an ignorant age and doesn't have the ability to make a choice."
Li Ran laughed. "There were so many children just now. Some of them were younger than her. Why didn't Sect Master Chu come out to speak? Now that you see a genius, you have to make a choice for her. Isn't that a little hypocritical?"
Chu Lingchuan was speechless.
She also knew that her words were untenable.
Li Ran looked at the deacon. "What are you waiting for?"
…….
Deacon of the Imperial court fought two battles. His back was soaked in a cold sweat, and they did not dare to speak.
He couldn't afford to offend either of them.
Atmosphere suddenly became dead locked.
At this moment, Sheng Zhixia stood up and said, "Sheng Zi Li is right. It should be Shen Ning's choice."
Chu Lingchuan turned around and frowned, "What does Princess Sheng mean?"
Sheng Zhixia said, "Immortal Ascension a.s.sembly is held by the Sheng Clan. The rules have not been broken for thousands of years. Although Sect Master Chu is supreme, she still has to follow the rules, right?"
Chu Lingchuan coldly said, "You're saying that I am not following the rules?"
Sheng Zhixia did not say anything, but her eyes had already explained everything.
Cultivators looked at each other.
Royal family actually stood on Li Ran's side and openly challenged the Master of the Myriad Sword Pavilion.
This really exceeded their expectations.
Above the clouds.
Sheng Ye covered his face.
"What a sin!"
"I hope Chu Lingchuan doesn't go crazy…"
Air pressure at the scene became increasingly low.
Chu Lingchuan's brows knit together as her eyes filled with anger.
Geniuses could only be found by chance, not to mention the rare dual cultivation of Daoism and martial arts. She could not give up on this little girl.
Otherwise, if she wanted to nurture a disciple who surpa.s.sed Li Ran, her chances would be even more slim.
She thought about it and sent a voice transmission to Li Ran, "Little thief, give this girl to me. I'll let bygones be bygones!"
Li Ran snorted and sent a voice transmission, "You beat me up for four hours. The one who should be saying that should be me!"
Chu Lingchuan said hatefully, "But you grabbed my ankle and still covered… No one has ever dared to touch me!"
She couldn't continue speaking, and her face turned red.
Li Ran shook his head. "You think I'm willing? I'm still afraid of getting my hands dirty."
"Bulls.h.i.t!" Chu Lingchuan was fl.u.s.tered.
She couldn't help but look down.
Her two feet were as white as jade. Her toes were as cute as ivory, sparkling and translucent, not stained with fine dust. Where was the dirt?
She tried to calm down and said, "How about this, two spirit treasures you voluntarily forfeit."
If it weren't for the fact that both the Righteous Path and Devil Path were watching, she would have already robbed him. How could she have discussed this with this kid?
Li Ran laughed coldly and said, "You're giving alms to beggars?"
"Three, you can't have more!"
"I won’t even trade even if you offer five or ten! I have to be responsible for Shen Ning. I don't trust you."
"Are you worried? I'm an Emperor-rank expert, yet I can't teach a little girl?"
"What will you teach her? Drinking, hitting, or cheating?"
Chu Lingchuan's chest rose and fell.
This b.a.s.t.a.r.d was too despicable. Every time she talked to him, she would be half angered to death!
"Since you're not kind, don't blame me for the injustice!"
She blinked and came up with a good idea.
At that moment, Sheng Zhixia said, "Deacon Lin, what are you waiting for?"
Deacon of the Imperial Court quivered.
He really had no choice but to bite the bullet and speak.
"If that's the case, then I'll respect the rules of the convention. Let Shen Ning choose for herself," Chu Lingchuan said.
Everyone was taken aback.
Respect the rules?
This was not Chu Lingchuan’s personality!
"But the situation just now was too chaotic. Let's let her raise her hands to see which sects want to accept Shen Ning," she said.
Imperial Court deacon did not think too much when he heard this. He nodded and said loudly, "Shen Ning, saint rank talent, innate martial arts body, which sect would like to take her? Please raise your hand to express your opinion."
Li Ran wanted to raise her hand immediately, but he suddenly realized that he could not move.
It was as if a huge mountain was pressing down on his shoulder. His muscles and bones were trembling, and he could not even move a finger.
As for Chu Lingchuan, she looked at him with a smile and said, "Thank you, Sheng Zi Li, for being kind in heart."
Li Ran gritted his teeth." b.i.t.c.h, you're cheating again!"
It turned out that this woman wanted to use the rules to get him to "Take the initiative" to forfeit.
Chu Lingchuan said proudly, "We can't tire of deception in battle. This was taught to me by Sheng Zi Li."
Li Ran glared at her hatefully.
But helplessly, the gap between the two was too great. He blocked spirit power in his entire body. Not even a single syllable could be uttered.
At this moment, a wave of warmth came from his bosom.
He was stunned. "This is…"
Then, he suddenly reacted and smiled.
"b.i.t.c.h, you dare to plot against me!"
