Xianxia: The Sect Master Is My Girlfriend

Amid the chaos, shattered walls, and debris scattered everywhere, the cries of the righteous disciples echoed in the air…

Xiang Ze’s head felt like it had grown several sizes.

Li Ran had enjoyed the fight, but how were they supposed to clean up this mess?

Most of the beaten young men were core disciples from first- and second-tier Righteous Sects. If it had been just one or two, it might have been manageable, but there were dozens of them!

And that included the senior brother of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion!

Chen Zhutian was electrocuted so badly that his hair had turned into a frizzled mess, and he was still lying on the ground, twitching!

When Li Ran walked away from the scene, who was going to clean up the mess?

These righteous sects wouldn’t dare confront the Hidden Gauze Sect, so they would definitely vent their anger on him, the city lord!

After thinking it through, Xiang Ze turned to the Vice City Lord and said, “I miss home. Prepare for my return tomorrow. I’ll help my mom with some chores. You can handle the city affairs while I’m gone.”

The Vice City Lord cautiously replied, “City lord, aren’t you an orphan? Where did this mother come from?”

“…”

“Actually, it’s like this,” Xiang Ze patted the Vice City Lord’s shoulder appreciatively, “You’ve been with me for a long time, and I recognize your abilities. So, I’ve decided to promote you!”

Xiang Ze shook his hand. “Congratulations, from now on, you’re the new city lord of Qingzhou City!”

The Vice City Lord looked at him suspiciously, “Are you sure it’s city lord and not scapegoat?”

“Ahem, young people should learn to seize opportunities!”

“But I need to survive first…”

…

Seeing that his persuasion wasn’t working, Xiang Ze sighed helplessly.

Actually, Li Ran had held back.

Although the scene was tragic, no one had lost their life.

These people didn’t deserve to die. Li Ran wasn’t a murderer; he just wanted to teach them a lesson and complete a task.

“Um… Little Xiang,” Li Ran called out.

“Yes, coming!”

Xiang Ze hurried over, rubbing his hands together, “What can I do for you, Holy Son?”

Li Ran said, “Calculate the damages here, and I’ll cover all the costs.”

Fair is fair.

If mortals had been running this inn, his actions could have left an entire family homeless.

Xiang Ze shook his head vigorously, “You’re too kind! This inn was old and dilapidated. I’ve wanted to rebuild it for a while now. I should be thanking you for your help!”

Though he said this, his heart bled.

Tingyue Pavilion was the largest inn in Qingzhou City and his primary source of income. It had just been renovated last month, and today it was destroyed…

But how could he dare ask Li Ran to compensate?

Li Ran raised an eyebrow, “Oh, so this was your business? Then I’m not getting involved.”

“You’re too kind.”

Xiang Ze scratched his head. “If I may ask, are you here in Qingzhou City to participate in the Demon-Slaying Assembly?”

“Of course not. Do you think I’m that bored?”

Li Ran replied, “I just got tired of flying and happened to pass by. I wanted to rest for a bit.”

“…And then?”

“And then I stumbled upon these idiots having a meeting, so I decided to beat them up.”

“…”

Xiang Ze was speechless.

What kind of coincidence was that?

At that moment, Li Ran asked, “Is there another inn in Qingzhou City?”

He was planning to take a bath and rest a bit. After all, beating people up was hard work!

Xiang Ze eagerly offered, “Why go to another inn? You can stay at my place as long as you like!”

“Oh?” Li Ran asked curiously, “You don’t seem too afraid of me?”

As a Holy Son of a Demonic Sect, most people didn’t even dare to mention his name. Although Xiang Ze was cautious, he didn’t seem particularly frightened.

Xiang Ze smiled, “Because I know you’re not someone who kills indiscriminately. Otherwise, these righteous sect members wouldn’t just be injured.”

Actually, he had another reason.

If no one was going to take the blame, he could create the illusion that he and Li Ran had a good relationship.

That might make the righteous sects hesitate to act rashly…

“Alright then.”

Li Ran didn’t refuse and followed him to the city lord’s residence.

In the midst of the ruins, Luo Yong was the only one left standing there, dumbfounded.

He was the only one who hadn’t been beaten…

…

Meanwhile…

Lin Langyue transformed into a divine light, speeding through the sky, covering hundreds of miles in an instant!

Faced with Li Ran’s fierce attack earlier, she could only defend herself, not daring to relax for even a moment.

Otherwise, she might really have died under those powerful blows!

Only when Xiang Ze’s intervention distracted Li Ran was she given a moment to catch her breath.

She didn’t hesitate at all and immediately used a blood-burning technique!

At the cost of damaging her cultivation, she fled hundreds of miles away in an instant, not daring to look back!

She kept flying until she reached a small hill, where she finally collapsed from exhaustion.

“Ugh!”

Lin Langyue coughed up a mouthful of blood, her face pale as paper, her lips white as wax.

Leaning weakly against a tree trunk, she felt like her body was falling apart.

Li Ran’s physical strength was terrifying.

Even though she used all her spiritual energy to resist and was protected by a high-grade magical robe, she still couldn’t withstand the force of his punches.

Her internal organs were shaking, her blood was churning, and she had been severely injured!

Feeling the intense pain, her expression became strange. Blushing, she spat lightly.

When Li Ran activated his bloodline power, his mind became influenced, turning extremely violent and irritable.

He didn’t pay attention to where he was hitting; he just punched wherever he saw a big target…

Naturally, her huge breast became the primary target.

“That bastard…”

Lin Langyue gritted her teeth. “He’s absolutely detestable!”

She had come from a prestigious family.

From a young age, she showed extraordinary talent in cultivation.

After confirming she had an innate Dao body, she was accepted as a personal disciple by the Sect Master of the Central Heaven Sect.

She had advanced from Qi Refinement to the Golden Core stage without any obstacles.

Naturally, she became the sect’s top disciple and was recognized as the greatest genius in the righteous path.

In her twenty years of life, she had never faced any setbacks.

Until she met Li Ran, this nemesis.

His Dao techniques were divine, capable of summoning heavenly lightning!

His physical strength was overwhelming, even her Wind Spirit Jade couldn’t block his fists!

His bizarre artifact and skills left Lin Langyue almost powerless to fight back, thoroughly crushing her!

Even now, when she closed her eyes, she could still see those blood-red eyes.

“The bright moon in the sky, huh? Let’s see how I shatter you!” Li Ran’s voice echoed in her ears.

Thud!

Lin Langyue felt a surge in her throat and spat out another mouthful of blood.

“Damn it, my Dao heart is damaged…”

She took out a pill and swallowed it, while also channeling the last of her spiritual energy into a jade pendant.

Her accompanying disciples would sense it and be able to locate her.

Lin Langyue weakly sat down, her pure white Dao robe stained with dirt, but she had no energy to care.

This time, her losses were huge.

She was severely injured, her Dao heart was damaged, her cultivation had dropped, and her immortal treasures were destroyed…

But most importantly, her pride had been trampled on and crushed by him!

Biting her lip, Lin Langyue muttered, “Li Ran, this isn’t over!”
