Master, something is wrong with you.

"Su Ran, you... can actually defeat that third-level sea creature quickly, right?"

Xiao Lingyue whispered softly to Su Ran's ear again.

There was a scent of orchid in her words, which made Su Ran's heart tremble slightly... she was scared.

Su Ran had never expected that Master Xiao would suddenly bring up this matter.

How did she see that?

Could it be that there were still many loopholes in her performance just now?

But... it shouldn't be.

Generally speaking, I only have handles, where are the loopholes.

Several thoughts flashed through my mind quickly, and Su Ran said in confusion: "Master Xiao, did you misunderstand something?"

Pretend, keep pretending!

Seeing that this person was still pretending with him, Xiao Lingyue felt angry and amused.

This dead man, can't he tell me the truth for once?

"You can hide it from others, how can you hide it from me?" Xiao Lingyue said softly: "Just tell me."

After thinking for a moment, Su Ran asked: "How did you see that?"

Could it be that he did reveal a lot of flaws in the previous battle?

If that's the case, he has to improve it next time.

"Because I see that you can always turn danger into safety at the last moment. It's okay once or twice, but if it happens too many times, I feel something is wrong."

"Besides, you and I have known each other for three years. How can I not know who you are?"

Xiao Lingyue did not hide anything. He said whatever he had and told Su Ran all his previous guesses.

Su Ran thought, who am I, you know nothing.

You know my strengths?

But on the surface, Su Ran would never dare to tell Master Xiao about this.

Hearing Xiao Lingyue say this, Su Ran could only compliment him against his will: "Master Xiao, you are really amazing, you have a sharp eye."

Listening to Su Ran's words, Xiao Lingyue couldn't help but smile and said: "So, Su Ran, try not to lie to me in the future, I'm not that easy to fool."

"I feel it..." Su Ran noticed that Xiao Lingyue's eyes were slightly wrong, and quickly changed his words: "I mean, I will definitely not easily deceive Master Xiao."

With a slight hook at the corner of his mouth, Xiao Lingyue smiled: "Easily? Then you will still do this kind of thing?"

At this time, Su Ran decisively chose to keep silent and avoid this life-threatening question.

Do you think he is stupid? He obviously knows that it is a life-threatening question, but he still foolishly approaches it, gives a wrong answer, and gives his head?

So avoiding the question is the most correct choice.

In addition, Su Ran also understands Xiao Lingyue's character better.

The relationship between the two is now in a delicate period, much closer than friends, but not to the point of lovers.

It can be said that there is a hazy feeling between the two of them.

At this time, Xiao Lingyue should not be like his girlfriend, who would desperately ask questions after catching a question.

Sure enough, seeing that this person was obviously avoiding this question and evading the answer, Xiao Lingyue just smiled slightly and did not ask further, but chose to let this person avoid it.

While the two were talking, the atmosphere on the battlefield became more and more dull.

This can also represent from the side that the invisible confrontation between the two Xuandan realms has entered a white-hot stage.

At this time, most of the battles on the battlefield have stopped.

Everyone's attention is almost on the confrontation between the two Xuandan realms.

Which side wins, the morale will be greatly boosted!

"Master Xiao, which side do you think will win?"

Although he did not continue to ask himself, Xiao Lingyue's eyes staring at him from time to time made Su Ran feel a little scared.

Therefore, he took the initiative to find a topic.

Hearing this, Xiao Lingyue thought for a moment and said, "Zhang Shou should win. Zhang Shou is a third-level Xuandan, while the Xuandan of the sea clan is only a second-level Xuandan."

"The competition of Qi, like the battle of spiritual power, is the purest battle. The physical advantage of the sea clan is useless."

Su Ran nodded in agreement and said, "Master Xiao, what you said makes sense."

Looking at Su Ran praising him seriously, Xiao Lingyue couldn't help it anymore. Why... does this person always do such interesting things?

Obviously, he was afraid that he would continue to ask questions and make him embarrassed, so he praised himself in return. He was good at diverting attention.

Looking at Xiao Lingyue suddenly laughing silently, Su Ran was immediately confused. Why is this woman grinning for no reason?

Suddenly, Xiao Lingyue's cheeks slightly straightened, and he whispered, "The winner should be decided soon."

Hearing this, Su Ran's attention was immediately focused on the battle between the two Xuandans.

At this moment, the expressions of the two Xuan Dan were no longer as indifferent as at the beginning, but were both solemn.

Because he was closer to Zhang Shou, Su Ran had to observe Zhang Shou more carefully.

Zhang Shou's robes were lifted up without wind.

It was as if there was an invisible force lingering around him.

On the other hand, the situation of the sea clan Xuan Dan was roughly the same as Zhang Shou.

Boom!

Suddenly, it seemed that some unknown existence suddenly exploded above the battlefield!

When the space was slightly vibrating, the spiritual energy storms suddenly spread!

The few sea clans and human races closest to the explosion area were directly pierced by the spiritual energy storm!

Even the cultivators who were a little further away turned pale and vomited blood. It was obvious that they had suffered serious injuries.

Looking at this scene, Su Ran suddenly understood why there was the saying "When gods fight, mortals suffer."

In this situation, it is obvious that when gods fight, mortals suffer.

The spiritual storm almost swept the entire battlefield, but the threatening range was the range closest to the explosion area.

It spread to the back and was not much dangerous.

However, when the storm was about to fall on Su Ran, Xiao Lingyue still waved his hand and easily resolved these fluctuations.

"Thank you, Master Xiao."

Seeing this, Su Ran bowed his hands and thanked Xiao Lingyue.

"Su Ran, stop it, why are you so polite to me?"

Hearing Su Ran's words of thanks, Xiao Lingyue rolled his eyes at him.

"..."

Hearing this, Su Ran couldn't help but think...

You are being polite to me!

Now, Master Xiao gave him the same feeling.

However, Master Xiao would never say such a thing.

Although the meaning was the same, the words were completely different.

In the air, Xuan Dan of the Sea Clan took three steps back, and his slightly dark face was rarely pale at this moment.

In the sea behind him, a huge wave suddenly rose for no reason, with a loud bang!

"In this battle, I admit defeat, retreat!"

After stabilizing his body, Xuan Dan of the Sea Clan looked a little ugly.

I immediately waved his hand, and his deep voice, with the blessing of spiritual power, instantly spread throughout the battlefield.

After a while, a large number of sea people began to evacuate from the battlefield quickly.

For the large-scale evacuation of these sea people, the human cultivators who were still on the battlefield did not stop them.

If they tried to stop them, it would mean that... the battle today would continue.

Therefore, the sea clan easily withdrew from the entire battlefield.

"Is that the end?"

Looking at this scene, Su Ran was a little stunned.

Hearing this, Xiao Lingyue nodded gently and said, "It is actually disadvantageous for the party with damaged morale to continue fighting, so the sea clan's choice to withdraw is a very correct choice."

After the sea clan withdrew to the vast sea, the human cultivators of Linhai City who were still on the battlefield slowly returned to the city.

In the city wall, the heavy black stone gate that was several meters high was slowly opened to welcome these human cultivators into the city.

"Okay, let's go back."

Xiao Lingyue glanced at Su Ran and asked, "Do you need my help?"

Su Ran shook his head: "No... Need it? Uncle Xiao is too polite."

Xiao Lingyue: "Aren't you exhausted? Why don't you need help? Acting should be done in full, understand?"

"..."

Su Ran was speechless. At this moment, he seemed to have a feeling.

In terms of acting, it seems that... Uncle Xiao is better than him!

This is a ghost.

Could it be that this woman is actually an ultimate actor?

What does she play?

However, thinking about it carefully, Su Ran felt that what this woman said was not unreasonable.

Although he had been seen through by her, others basically could not see through it.

So...

Su Ran whispered: "Then I'll trouble Uncle Xiao."

Hearing this, Xiao Lingyue smiled and said: "That's right, you said you, wouldn't it be better if you had obeyed earlier?"

After saying that, he naturally approached Su Ran, and then put the man's arm on himself.

The next moment, Su Ran's feelings can almost be fully described in one word.

It's really soft!

His arm fell naturally, and suddenly, Su Ran seemed to realize that he seemed to have touched something extraordinary...

Then, Xiao Lingyue's delicate cheeks suddenly became extremely red at this moment.

This person... still knows how to choose the position of his hands!

As always!

After glaring at this person with shame and anger, Xiao Lingyue did not say anything to let this person retract his hand or change the position.

However, even if Master Xiao did not say anything, Su Ran still moved his hand quickly the next moment as if he had been electrocuted.

If he put it there again... it would be fatal!

Therefore, even though the hand feeling was really explosive and good, Su Ran resolutely moved his hand away.

After Su Ran quickly moved his hand away, Xiao Lingyue's heart, for some reason, actually... strangely emerged a trace of slight loss.

Logically speaking, in this kind of thing, the one who gets the benefit is Su Ran.

However, Xiao Lingyue didn't know why he had this feeling.

It was very strange.

However, it was better to move away, after all, there were too many other people's eyes here.

If there was a big hand covering his place under so many eyes...

Thinking about that scene, in fact, Xiao Lingyue couldn't resist it.

With Su Ran, Xiao Lingyue supported him and walked slowly to the city gate.

But Xiao Lingyue deliberately slowed down and walked very slowly.

Everyone else had almost walked, and this woman supported Su Ran and was still dawdling on the road into the city.

Su Ran: "..."

Uncle Xiao, before we get dark, can we get into this city gate...?

To be honest, my eighty-year-old grandmother walks faster than you.

"Uncle Xiao..."

Su Ran hesitated to speak.

Hearing Su Ran's words, Xiao Lingyue's face was slightly embarrassed.

She knew that her current speed... was indeed a bit too slow.

However, she really wanted to stay with this person as long as possible in this state.

So, she would try to delay her steps.

Seeing that fewer and fewer practitioners were entering the city, the soldiers at the city gate also cast their eyes on the two of them...

Xiao Lingyue took Su Ran and disappeared in an instant.

...

When they appeared again, they had returned to the guest room of Yuelaiju.

"Master Xiao, you are so fast."

After entering the room, Su Ran said so.

This woman, when she is slow, she is absurdly slow.

When she is fast, it is impossible to react.

Hearing this, Xiao Lingyue felt that something was wrong.

The words in this person's mouth... are probably not good words!

But Xiao Lingyue thought about it seriously, and didn't catch any handle.

Therefore, she could only glare at this person.

...

At the same time

Lingxiao Sect, Lingxiao Main Peak.

Li Daochuan sat on a chair in the hall. He was the only one in the hall at this time.

After a moment, Li Daochuan felt something and looked towards the entrance of the hall.

Jian Chongxiao's figure appeared at the right time.

If it was the usual Jian Chongxiao, his expression would definitely be a little relaxed after entering the hall at this time.

But at this moment, Jian Chongxiao's expression was clearly a little serious.

"Junior brother, sit down."

Nodding to Jian Chongxiao, Li Daochuan motioned him to sit down and talk.

After Jian Chongxiao sat down, Li Daochuan was silent for a moment before slowly speaking.

"Junior brother, I called you here today for the purpose... I guess you have guessed it?"

Nodding, Jian Chongxiao took the initiative to ask: "Brother, are you going to start implementing the plan?"

"Yes, the time is almost right." Li Daochuan said in a deep voice: "So, it's time for us to take action and eliminate the hidden dangers of the sect as soon as possible!"

Take a deep breath, Jian Chongxiao stretched out his hand to Li Daochuan and said: "Give it to me!"

Seeing this, Li Daochuan was slightly stunned.

"Junior brother, what are you doing..."

Jian Chongxiao glared and said: "Treasure! If you don't give me the treasure, how can I attract the people in the dark to show up, with my face?"

Looking carefully at Jian Chongxiao's big face, Li Daochuan hurriedly shook his head.

"Junior brother, I mean, after three days... not now to lure the snake out of the hole."

Jian Chongxiao: "..."

The tight thread in his heart suddenly loosened.

Originally, Jian Chongxiao thought that Li Daochuan called him over to implement the plan immediately.

I never thought that it would take another three days. I was so nervous for nothing.

After a moment, Li Daochuan said, "I asked you to come here because I planned a route for you, which can keep you in a safe situation to the greatest extent possible."
