After Favorability Is Maxed

253 Hong Luan’s Three Magic Weapons for a Sense of Security

The wind and rain were like a veil as the waves rolled.

Ling Hua’s black Daoist robe fluttered in the wind, outlining the graceful curves of her body. Her waterfall-like long hair fluttered in the wind, cold and lofty, giving her a celestial-like appearance.

Whoosh!

The silver sword drew light and slammed into the river.

The Big Dipper constellation behind the Daoist nun drew the last stroke of starlight. In a split second, the seven stars – Tianshu, Tianxuan, Tianji, Tianquan, Yuheng, Kaiyang, and Yaoguang – connected together. Sword light blazed, illuminating the dark, rainy night for an instant.

In the muddy river, seven swords in the same order lit up with white light, and an illusionary formation with the Big Dipper as the center formed in the river.

When the formation was formed, the huge spiritual power pressed down on the churning river water until it was 70 percent calm. The surrounding monsters that were already in the water were either killed by the Sword Qi or pressed to the bottom of the river. They did not even dare to breathe and could only stick to the sand and shiver.

For a moment, only the sound of the wind and rain and the dragon’s roar could be heard on the river’s surface.

Roar!

The silver sword’s light was like a nail, pinning it down into the river.

The shadow dragon raised its twisted neck, which was covered in bone spikes, and opened its mouth, which was full of fangs. It let out a high-pitched roar of pain.

However, no matter how hard it struggled, it could only create some waves in the water and could no longer move an inch, let alone fly up. The Sword Qi crushed its bones and internal organs inch by inch.

It was no longer a dragon, but an insect waiting to die on the chopping board.

Boom! Boom!

With a thunderclap, the rain became heavier.

The roar gradually turned into a wail, and the arrogant head finally fell down, smashing into a huge spray of water. A wisp of blood-colored mist rose from the shadow dragon’s body, which was washed away by the rain in the blink of an eye. However, Ling Hua’s face did not change at all.

When she landed on the Starfall ship where Liu Yuan was. She flicked her wide sleeves and put away the Demon Subduing Sword. The Ling Jie immediately went up and explained the current situation and their guesses.

Ling Hua was not surprised. She only sighed slightly and asked about the situation.

Liu Yuan walked over with Hong Luan in his arms, followed by Zhiying and Zhizhi.

The white-robed Zhiying still had an indifferent expression on her face, while Zhizhi looked around with her big eyes, her pretty face filled with curiosity.

One was cold and the other was simple. However, Liu Yuan knew that these two children were actually more two-faced than the other.

Of course, there were also a few things to worry about.

Unlike the one in his arms, who looked like she was about to cry when she flew over. Liu Yuan reached out and stroked Hong Luan’s hair. She was a pure white piece of paper that knew nothing.

The little puppet wrapped her thin and white arms tightly around his neck. The little face that was half-exposed in the crook of his neck looked nervous and dazed, and she was frightened by the tragic scene around it.

Although Hong Luan had seen dead people in the Martial Emperor’s Tomb and those deformed puppets and strange beasts that were more terrifying than the dead, most of the former were enemies with disgusting faces and deserved to die. The latter was considered the same kind as her. Perhaps these inanimate objects were even more intimate to her.

But the situation now was very different.

Her mind was at most around the age of ten, and she was ignorant of everything in the human world. The young disciples of the Jade Mirage Sect, who she had just met not long ago, had been good to her before. It was very uncomfortable for her to suddenly change so drastically.

But fortunately, Hong Luan did not walk out of the tomb alone. She still had Liu Yuan as her support.

The little puppet grabbed Liu Yuan’s clothes tightly and pressed her petite and slightly cold body closer to the young man’s chest. She felt the strong heartbeat and subconsciously raised her chin to ask for a kiss.

For Hong Luan, kissing, hugging, and raising her up high were the three magic weapons to obtain a sense of security. This was only exclusive to Liu Yuan.

Liu Yuan subconsciously turned his head and saw Hong Luan’s soft lips on the corner of his mouth. His heart skipped a beat and he looked up to see Ling Hua looking at him.

The woman’s eyes were calm and gentle. She walked over and reached out her hand to stroke Hong Luan’s soft long hair in a seemingly kind manner. During this time, her fingertips faintly brushed the back of Liu Yuan’s hand. She said softly, “This child seems to be very dependent on you.”

Upon hearing this, Hong Luan looked at Ling Hua with some vigilance and then kissed Liu Yuan again. The kiss was very firm, and she puffed up her cheeks and softly demonstrated, “We kissed, hugged, and he held me high!”

Ling Hua laughed.

Liu Yuan felt that his image had collapsed yet again.

Liu Yuan facepalmed. He felt that the image of a lolicon probably could not be washed away. However, with the addition of Duan Lanruo, who was a wifey… His image was immediately upgraded to a man who did not care about anything.

Even Ling Jie’s eyes turned from surprise to shock.

Although he did not know the relationship between Liu Yuan and the three lolis around him, he vaguely felt that Liu Yuan and Senior Sister’s relationship was not just friends.

However, before his guess could be confirmed, the scene in front of him made him confused.

That seemingly delicate little girl was actually so bold. She directly used her mouth and her hands, and it sounded like she was already very familiar with this kind of action.

Ling Jie opened its mouth with a strange expression, not knowing what to say.

Forget it, forget it. I’ll just pretend that I didn’t see anything. After all, even Senior Sister didn’t say anything, so it’s not my place to worry about this. Moreover, Liu Yuan is my savior. If I speak now, I might be suspected of returning kindness with ingratitude.

Just as Ling Jie was struggling with the dilemma of gratitude and loyalty, Ling Hua put her hands down and put them in her sleeves. She said lightly, “In that case, we can’t bring her along for the next operation. It’s too dangerous.”

Her gaze swept past Zhiying, Zhizhi, and Hong Luan in order.

Finally, it fell back on Liu Yuan and she said, “I know the people from the other three palaces. Now that they have used such despicable means, they can only carry it out to the end. They are most afraid of their reputation being damaged. I’m afraid that they will not let it go until they see our bodies. Just like these three ships of people to us, if we don’t protect them well, they will only become a burden.”

Ling Hua looked at the corpses again, and her expression flickered a little. Although she was far away from these ordinary disciples, she still had a tender heart. However, she also knew that instead of being sad, it was better to bring the mastermind to justice as soon as possible.

Liu Yuan nodded. Of course, he knew that even though there were people like Ding Luan who were close to the Saint stage in the Jade Mirage Sect, there were also ordinary people who pursued fame and fortune. Unfortunately, so far, most of them were ordinary people.

It was true that he was the leader of the righteous path, but his desire for reputation and power was also true.

However, the internal power struggle in the Jade Mirage Sect was definitely not to the point of a life-and-death struggle in the game. The current situation could only be the butterfly effect of his transmigration.

The biggest possibility was that Bi Luo Mansion had done something.

In Liu Yuan’s mind, Ming De, who was killed by him, the young lady, and the other Jade Mirage disciples seemed to be under the control of Bi Luo Mansion.

Some of them seemed to be possessed by demons, but there were no assassins nearby, so they were controlled from a distance. Moreover, there was a lot of demonic Qi on those arrows and daggers, which should have been drawn from a living demon.

Bi Luo Mansion… Could it be that they are studying the demon race and using it for their own goals?

Liu Yuan had such a guess in his heart. He put down the reluctant Hong Luan. Zhiying took the initiative to bring them to a safe place to avoid them – most likely a stronghold of the demonic sect. However, Zhizhi pouted and said that she could turn into a spirit and follow Liu Yuan.

It turned out that they were right to worry.

As soon as Zhiying left with Hong Luan, a few elders at the Form Synthesis stage appeared in the rain and shouted, “Traitors, Ling Hua, and evil demons, surrender!”
