Wan Ling's Persuasion!

A beautiful girl in green clothes and lanky legs was smiling at Shen Ran with her big black eyes.

"Ran, it has been a long time."

She was Wan Qingqing, the chief disciple of the Ninth Summit, the only daughter of Peak Master Wan Ziling.

She grew up in the Empyrean Sword Sect with Shen Ran and had a deep relationship with him.

However, after Wan Qingqing became the chief disciple of the Ninth Summit, the two gradually did not keep in touch.

Even though Shen Ran had transmigrated and this was the first time he had seen Wan Qingqing, he had inherited memories of her. He had a good impression of her.

Looking at the girl's starry eyes, Shen Ran subconsciously blurted out, "It has been a long time."

Wan Qingqing was smiling. Her big eyes were curved into beautiful crescents, and she looked rather cute.

However, when Wan Qingqing thought of the reason why Shen Ran was demoted to a servant disciple, her eyes dimmed.

"After learning that you've been demoted to a servant disciple, I've been wanting to see you. Unfortunately, I'm usually busy, and I only found the opportunity now."

He looked at Wan Qingqing's green robe that ordinary disciples wore.

Comparing it to his servant disciple's black robe, Shen Ran smiled and said, "You're the chief disciple of the Ninth Summit, so you must be a little busy. It must be hard for you to make time to visit me, a servant disciple.

Haha, you're the chief disciple. Aren't you afraid that others will laugh at you for coming to see me at night?"

When Shen Ran spoke, he was smiling and was obviously joking.

When she heard Shen Ran's words, she had mixed feelings and was filled with guilt. "Ran, don't be discouraged. Actually, your aptitude isn't that bad. Even if you're a servant disciple for the time being, as long as you don't dull your aspiration but cultivate diligently, you can still become an ordinary disciple in the future."

"Of course. My fate is in my hands, not the heavens. In the future, I will definitely be able to achieve the path that belongs to me. Hahaha!"

On the surface, Shen Ran seemed to be joking.

But he was practically telling the truth.

There were Supreme Bones, Pangu Sacred Body, Ancient Immortal Eyes, Heavenly Spirit Root, and various other top-notch talents, gathered into an integral whole.

In the future, as long as nothing unexpected happened, he would definitely become a person who could rule the ages. He would sweep across all enemies from the present to the future and kill until no one in the world dared to proclaim Lord!

Even without talking about the future, the current him could crush ordinary peak Divine Sea experts with just the third level of the Divine Sea Realm.

How could he be in a desolate frame of mind?

Seeing that Shen Ran had not become disheartened and depressed after being demoted to a servant disciple, Wang Qingqing heaved a sigh of relief.

She secretly decided that as long as she found an opportunity, she would definitely help Shen Ran become an ordinary disciple again!

The girl let go of the knot in her heart and felt her mood lift.

They chatted on and on about their childhood.

Shen Ran was also humorous and amused Wan Qingqing.

Late at night, Wan Qingqing reluctantly bid farewell to her childhood friend. "I'll go back first. Work hard and cultivate. I'll come and see you in a few days."

As she spoke, she handed over a bottle of the lowest-grade Essence Cultivation Pill.

This Essence Cultivation Pill was a drop in the bucket compared to the opportunity Shen Ran was about to obtain.

But it was still a girl's kindness.

Shen Ran took it with a smile and decided to repay her ten thousand times in the future.

Not for this bottle of Essence Cultivation Pills, but for this rare warm kindness in the cold fantasy world.

"Hmph!"

Not long after Wan Qingqing left, a cold snort suddenly sounded.

Shen Ran, who had just put away the Essence Cultivation Pill, suddenly felt a blast of intense hostility targeting him.

Instantly, his hair stood on end and all his muscles tensed.

His calm divine sea surged, and countless golden spiritual qi poured into his meridians.

Shen Ran had already entered a prepared state, ready to strike at any time.

Wang Qingxuan?

Has he already found out that I killed his two sidekicks?

No, this hostility is not particularly strong. It does not seem like Wang Qingxuan.

Countless thoughts came to his mind.

Shen Ran did not immediately choose to attack the source of the hostility. He shouted coldly, "Who is it?!"

The hostility that was targeted at him ebbed like a receding tide.

It was replaced by a plaintive sigh.

"Aye."

"You're young and not talented, but you're ambitious. This won't do. Don't you understand the principle of being too rigid and easy to break? Shen Ran."

As she spoke, a graceful and beautiful woman in her thirties walked in.

This beautiful woman's eyebrows were 70-80% similar to Wan Qingqing's, but her temperament was mature, her figure was plump, and her figure was curvaceous.

"Peak Master?"

Shen Ran recognized the newcomer and was instantly speechless.

She was Wan Qingqing's mother, Wan Ziling!

"You've been intimate with Qingqing since you were young. It can be said that I watched you grow up. It doesn't matter if you were a little naughty when you were young, but at your age now, you should understand that some things can be done, but some things cannot be done."

In contrast to Wan Qingqing, Wan Ziling looked at Shen Ran coldly.

"Here, I'll advise you as an elder. There's nothing you can do about poor talent, but what a person does can be decided by him. At the same time, you have to understand that if you do something wrong, the consequences are unavoidable."

Wan Ziling said coldly.

Seeing that the other party did not come with good intentions and was even implying something, Shen Ran could not be enthusiastic either. He asked expressionlessly, "Peak Master Wan, what do you want to say? Why don't you be more direct?"

"Alright, I won't hide it anymore. Didn't you offend the Dao Seed, Wang Qingxuan, that day?"

Shen Ran did not expect to hear the name of the spy from the Demon Sect here. He raised his eyebrows. "Yes."

Wan Ziling seemed a little anxious. "You don't know that Wang Qingxuan is famous for seeking revenge for the smallest grievance. Whoever offends him will definitely suffer his revenge later on. In the past two days, dozens of cultivators have already lost their lives because they offended him in the Grand Myriad Mountains! He won't even let off our fellow disciples from the Empyrean Sword Sect!"

"I can't believe there's such a thing."

Shen Ran was stunned.

However, he knew in his heart that those people who had been attacked by Wang Qingxuan had probably not really offended him.

Instead, they were suspected of being the killer who had killed his two sidekicks that day.

As the person involved, he knew very well that those people had never interacted with Wang Qingxuan.

Is it because he's suspicious and worried that he himself will be exposed, so he killed them?

Wang Qingxuan is indeed a spy from the Demon Sect. He is really ruthless!

"Wang Qingxuan is the Dao Seed of the Empyrean Divine Palace. As a servant disciple, you have offended him before. I don't think he will specially come to find trouble with you. However, if he sees you together with Qingqing one day, Wang Qingxuan might hate us mother and daughter, and the Ninth Summit. Therefore, if there's no necessity to meet, you should stay away from Qingqing."

Wan Ziling looked worried.

Shen Ran's eyes flickered as he listened to her.
