"Big brother." A smile bloomed on Shen Ning's face as she excitedly ran towards Li Ran.
Li Ran bent down to pick her up and pinched her face. "Little fellow, are you hungry?"
"Mn." Shen Ning nodded. "My stomach is already growling."
Chu Lingchuan curiously looked at him. "You cooked all these dishes?"
"Who else?" Li Ran said unhappily, "Not only did I prepare the dishes, but even the ingredients were also prepared by me!"
He searched.
Entire dining room was empty. Not to mention the dishes, not even a single one of the deacons could cook.
Furthermore, there were people who told him that if he wanted to eat, he could only go to the outer sect. Entire inner sect, including the Sect Master's residence, never cooked.
The so-called dining room was just a decoration.
Fortunately, Li Ran brought the food with him, which was why he finished the meal.
Chu Lingchuan apologetically said, "I'm sorry, I've been a cultivator for too long. I forgot that Shen Ning needs to eat…"
Li Ran shook his head and muttered, "I'll be hungry for nine meals in three days."
Shen Ning also sighed and covered her forehead with her small hand.
Chu Lingchuan's face was slightly red as she lowered her head. "I know. I will definitely arrange a meal tomorrow."
Seeing her embarra.s.sed appearance, Li Ran laughed, "Alright, let's eat."
At the dining table, Li Ran held Shen Ning and sat on the chair.
Originally, he wanted to put this little girl up, but she refused no matter what. She had to rely on herself.
"Come, try my cooking." Li Ran picked up a piece of silver fish and fed it to Shen Ning.
Shen Ning's small face was bulging, and she said vaguely, "Big brother's cooking is really delicious!"
Li Ran smiled dotingly. "If it's delicious, then eat more. You're still growing. You have to keep up with the nutrition."
"En!" Shen Ning nodded her head obediently.
However, her hands were still hugging him, as if she could not bear to let go.
This little girl was very precocious. Her mind was delicate, and she was calm. Even she was on guard against Chu Lingchuan.
Only in front of Li Ran would she put her guard down.
Chu Lingchuan looked at this scene and shook her head, "Are you not afraid of spoiling her?"
Li Ran said casually, "I'm her brother. Who else would spoil her if I didn't?
"Besides, big brother is already a devil. Isn't it normal for little sister to be bad?"
Chu Lingchuan couldn't help but laugh, "What kind of nonsense are you saying? I think that this little girl, Shen Ning, will sooner or later become a witch."
"What's wrong with devils?" Li Ran said indifferently, "Isn't it much better than those hypocritical Righteous paths?"
When Chu Lingchuan heard this, her brows furrowed. "Righteous path may have hypocrites, but the Devil Sects like Death Prison and Yin Corpse Dao are clearly guilty. Shouldn't they be spurned?"
Compared to the evil of Devil Sect, the Righteous path's hypocrisy was not that hard to accept.
"You mean them?" Li Ran said disdainfully, "They're just a bunch of animals, and they deserve to be called devils?"
"Devil cultivation is a struggle against the heavens. What is stolen is the good fortune of the heavens!"
"They can only squeeze the bones and blood of mortals to prove the so-called Great Dao. What's the difference between this and trash?"
He looked down on these people from the bottom of his heart.
Chu Lingchuan was stunned.
Who would have thought that Li Ran's understanding of the Righteous and Devil paths was so different?
"What you're saying is that devils don't represent evil. Instead, they represent a situation that controls the world?"
Li Ran asked, "Could it be that the Righteous path represents good?"
Chu Lingchuan fell silent.
Of course not.
Sc.u.m of the Righteous path wasn't less than the Devil Dao, so she rarely dealt with those Righteous sects.
Li Ran rubbed his chin and said, "Although there are many hypocrites in the Righteous path, master is an exception."
Chu Lingchuan's eyes lit up when she heard this, "You really think so?"
Her evaluation of his heart was actually so high.
"Of course." Li Ran said seriously, "Because master doesn't have that intelligence."
Chu Lingchuan's pretty face instantly fell. She gritted her teeth and said, "I knew you were just going to say fart!"
"It's just a joke." Li Ran picked up a piece of spirit deer meat and handed it to her. "Try your disciple's cooking."
"Ah? This…"
Chu Lingchuan's face was slightly red, and her eyes flashed. "There's no need. I've been on the path of immortality for a long time, and I've never eaten."
Li Ran said with a frown, "Your disciple has been busy for more than two hours. Master wouldn't even give me a bit of face?"
"I didn't mean that…"
Chu Lingchuan was a bit shy. In the end, she shyly opened her mouth and bit the deer meat.
"Is it delicious?"
"Good, delicious." Chu Lingchuan blushed and lowered her head shyly.
Li Ran said with a smile, "If it's delicious, then eat it yourself. It's fine if you eat it, but master still wants me to feed her?"
She hurriedly waved her hand and said, "No need…"
"Open your mouth, ah!"
Wu!
Chu Lingchuan was like a puppet, sitting on a chair with a red face. She didn't take the initiative to pick up her chopsticks and eat. If he came over with a dish, she would obediently open her mouth.
Her heart was fl.u.s.tered, shy, and faintly sweet.
It seemed like no one had ever taken such care of her.
"This guy really cooks delicious dishes. It would be great if I could eat it frequently in the future."
She suddenly had a thought.
If Li Ran could stay in the Myriad Sword Pavilion forever. How good would that be?
At this time, Li Ran asked, "Master, where is Shen Ning sleeping tonight?"
Chu Lingchuan came back to her senses and said, "She’ll sleep with me. I want to use my sword Qi to nurture her throughout the night. Only then can I activate my martial talent as soon as possible?"
During the day, she trained in Qi, and at night, her sword intent nourished her bones. Only in this way could she maximize her potential.
That was how Yue Jianli had come back then.
But Shen Ning shook her head. "No, I want to sleep with big brother."
Li Ran rubbed her head and said softly, "Shen Ning, be obedient. Master is doing this for your own good."
"But I've never been here before. I'm a bit scared…"
Li Ran was stunned.
Shen Ning had always been too mature, so she almost forgot that she was just a child.
She suddenly left Li Manor, where she had lived since he was young, and came to a world completely different from the mortal world. Naturally, she would feel nervous and afraid.
He and Chu Lingchuan looked at each other and couldn't help scratching their heads.
"What should we do?"
Shen Ning mumbled, "Why don't we just sleep together?"
Li Ran was dumbfounded.
"Ah?"
Chu Lingchuan's face instantly turned red, and her head shook like a rattle drum, "No, absolutely not!"
Sleeping with Li Ran?
This was too outrageous!
Shen Ning said dejectedly, "Alright, I got it."
Although she was afraid, she still chose to be obedient in front of her brother.
Seeing her lost expression, both of them felt a little uncomfortable.
This little girl was simply sensible enough to make one's heart ache.
Chu Lingchuan hesitated for a long time before saying shyly, "I, I have a way…"
