Chu Ran smiled and nodded, his expression not showing any reluctance or grievance, but rather eager to try.
Not only does she want to go, she also wants to be the first!
Presumably when the time comes, the expression on the guy who is plotting against her will be very exciting!
Seeing her expression in his eyes, Mo Jue couldn't help but smile, "Go where you want to go."
The indulgent tone made Qingmu on the other side of Lingjian stunned.
The master was clearly still angry just now and planned to go into the palace to cause trouble for the emperor, but why did his attitude completely change after just one or two words from Miss Chu!?
Is this still the master he has followed for many years?
"Aoki."
A deep voice with a smile suddenly sounded.
Aoki hurriedly came to his senses: "My subordinate is here."
"Tell her the rules of this imperial city trial." Mo Jue ordered, lifted up his clothes and sat down next to her.
He didn't care at all that the red soil on the ground soiled the corners of his clothes.
The slender right leg is slightly bent, with the elbow resting on the knee, and the posture is casual and free.
The black eyes turned slightly, and the piece of spirit was put into Chu Ran's hand.
"Yes." Qingmu didn't know that Lingjian had changed people, and immediately introduced the rules of this year's imperial city trial.
The age and cultivation level of the contestants are the same as in previous years.
It must not be lower than the fourth level of Lingshi, and the age must be under twenty years old.
The only thing that's different is...
"Can people from poor families sign up?" Chu Ran was slightly surprised.
She remembered that only talented people from famous families were eligible to sign up for the competition.
"That's right," Aoki's voice became excited, "This is all because of the master! It was the master who suppressed all the objections and fought against all opinions, so that Han Clan was qualified to participate in the selection!"
Chu Ran suddenly looked at Mo Jue.
It's him again...
Her heart was trembling, and the huge forest of books located on the northern outskirts of the imperial city flashed in her mind.
Shulin was built to open up the people's wisdom, and now it gives the poor people an opportunity to compete with the disciples of the high families.
If you win, you will be famous in the imperial city and your life will be changed.
Even if they lose, as long as they perform well, they will be noticed by famous factions and get opportunities.
His move is telling people all over the world that no matter where you are born, as long as you have talent and work hard enough, you can get ahead!
Chu Ran couldn't help but feel admiration, but also a little bit of worry.
By doing this, he was almost making himself an enemy of the entire high-ranking family in Jin!
Mo Jue glanced sideways slightly, looked into her complicated eyes, and asked with a smile: "Why are you looking at me like this?"
She suppressed her exposed emotions, thought of his unpredictable cultivation and methods, shook her head and said, "It's nothing."
…
There are still six days left before the Imperial City Trial. As the person who helped promote Han Clan to participate in the competition, Mo Jue still has many things that need to be dealt with personally before the start of the competition.
After spending two more days with Chu Ran, he had to leave first.
The air twisted behind him, forming a huge spiritual vortex.
He stood in front of the whirlpool, looked at Chu Ran, and asked without giving up: "Are you really not going to go with me?"
"I still want to practice here and wait until the time is almost up before leaving. You can go first. I will rush back before the game starts."
Chu Ran's attitude was very firm, and Mo Jue had no choice but to give up.
"Take this." He threw out a gilt bracelet and threw it into her arms.
Chu Ran scanned it with his spiritual sense, and found that in addition to various high-level spiritual stones, spiritual pills and other items, there was also a fire unicorn that was in a state of serious injury!
"It's inconvenient if you don't have a magic weapon to store when you go out. You can use this first."
Seeing that she opened her mouth to speak, Mo Jue said first: "You are not allowed to refuse. There is never any reason to take back the things I have sent out."
At this point, it would be hypocritical to refuse any more, and she really needs a storage space.
"Then I'll accept it." Chu Ran put the bracelet on his wrist. The surface of the gold bracelet was engraved with exquisite mysterious totem patterns.
The moment she put it on, the bracelet quickly shrank and fit her wrist perfectly, as if it was tailor-made for her.
Seeing this, the smile on Mo Jue's face deepened, "I am waiting for you in the imperial city."
He paused, then his figure suddenly flashed and flew in front of Chu Ran.
"Remember to think of me, the King."
Along with the words, there was a fleeting kiss on her cheek.
Chu Ran was stunned for a moment. When she came to her senses, there was no trace of him in front of her.
"asshole!"
She wiped her cheeks hard, but the soft and gentle touch was like a brand, engraved on her heart, and she couldn't get rid of it.
"Master, your face is so red~" Xiaobai joked with a smile.
As soon as Mo Jue left, the entire fox came to life, and with one leap it was about to jump onto Chu Ran's shoulder.
A red shadow suddenly flashed before her eyes, and she subconsciously turned sideways.
After a dull thud as a heavy object fell to the ground, Xiaobai sat down on the ground and screamed in pain.
"Master, you actually escaped!" it complained with aggrieved eyes, "You are no longer the master I know! You have changed! You were led astray by that bad guy!"
Chu Ran: "..."
"How pitiful, you can't even touch Xiao Ranran~ Unlike others, they live in Xiao Ranran's sea of consciousness at all times." The provocative mocking voice of Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire sounded in her mind.
here we go again.
Chu Ran only felt a headache.
From the first day of the contracted spirit fire, they seemed to be incompatible with each other and could fight at any time.
"What did you say, Stinky Tuan Tuan!" Xiao Bai immediately exploded.
"Don't call me Tuan Tuan! I'm not Tuan Tuan! I am Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire! The most powerful flame in the world! I don't have such a shameful name!!" Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire retorted loudly.
"You don't want me to scream, but I have to scream ~ stinky balls, stinky balls, little Baba's stinky balls!"
"Ahhh! I'm going to burn you to death!"
…
Chu Ran decisively blocked his spiritual consciousness.
The sound disappeared and the whole world became pure.
She walked up to Cang Wanyan and said, "I will leave here in two days. What about you? Are you going to the imperial city, or are you planning to return to the Cang family?"
"I want to go to the imperial city with the girl." Cang Wanyan had already made plans.
"Not only Cang Jinglan will participate in this trial, but my father and several powerful elders of the Cang family will also attend. They probably think that I am dead now, but I have to appear in front of them!"
Her beautiful eyes were filled with strong hatred and unwillingness.
His hands were clenched tightly, and there was a crackling sound between the whitened finger bones.
"Okay." Chu Ran didn't ask what she planned to do after she appeared, and just said: "Then we will go back together."
In the next three days, Chu Ran took Cang Wanyan to practice wildly in the mountains.
During the day, they fought with the monsters, and at night, she picked spiritual herbs and refined the elixirs and the beast essence pills of the monsters.
In just three days, the monsters in the Valley of the Dead were tortured to the point where their expressions changed after hearing Chu Ran's voice.
When they smell her breath from a distance, they turn around and run away like mice seeing a cat.
Early morning on the fourth day.
The loud beast's cry echoed through the sky.
"It's an intermediate sparrowhawk beast!"
The people gathered at the entrance of the Jiuyou Mountain Range raised their heads.
They saw two flying demonic beasts that covered the sky and the sun, fluttering their wings like two gusts of wind, quickly passing over their heads.
They were all reinforcements and spies from various forces who had received the news that Yi Bao had appeared.
People had arrived three days ago. However, due to the terrible explosion in the Jiuyou Mountains not long ago, they did not dare to step into the forest at will. They could only stay here and wait and see the situation.
"Don't mid-level monsters always live in the Valley of the Dead? How come they suddenly come out?"
"And they seem to have people on their backs!"
"How is that possible! All the warriors in the mountains have escaped a few days ago! How can there be anyone still there!"
"Could he be the person who contracted the rare treasure?"
As soon as this was said, others also thought it made sense.
They immediately used their spiritual skills to conjure up contracted beasts, and chased in the direction where the two monsters left.
