"Sir, please stay."
Xiao Ran was walking on the street, and suddenly someone passed by him and said something like this. When Xiao Ran looked back, the person who spoke had already disappeared without a trace.
"It turned out to be that person. Did he come to me again because he thought I could help him solve his troubles?"
Xiao Ran's spiritual mind easily tracked the person who just spoke. After seeing the other person's true face, Xiao Ran knew that this person must have no good intentions in coming to him. So Xiao Ran pretended not to hear, ignored him and continued walking forward.
In fact, behind Xiao Ran, there were two people following secretly. These two people had been following Xiao Ran for a long time since this morning. Xiao Ran didn't need to think about it to know that they were people sent by the casino to monitor him. The casino ate them continuously.
They have lost money many times and still haven't changed their minds.
As soon as Xiao Ran started talking to suspicious people, there would be a large number of people waiting for him. Even if Xiao Ran was not afraid of the people in the casino, it would still be troublesome.
What's more, the purpose of Xiao Ran's stay in this city is to attract higher-level people from the Soul Palace. Only through those people can Xiao Ran get what he needs to know. Getting involved in such inconsequential fights will not do Xiao Ran any good.
Half a benefit.
"Damn it, that person must have known it was me but didn't follow him. Did he also find out that two people were following him? No, I must contact him in the next few days!" The person who passed by Xiao Ran was a
He waited in the alley for a long time, but he didn't see anyone following him. He didn't believe in evil and waited for a while, but he still didn't see Xiao Ran's shadow.
"It's impossible. How could a smart person like me choose a path that would still be discovered by others? That person must not trust me." The man thought for a while.
Not long after, the same thing happened to Xiao Ran again. Xiao Ran's mind was locked on him, and he had already discovered that he had sneaked into the crowd again, and deliberately walked in his direction. When the other party passed by him,
, and sure enough, the corner of the other party's mouth moved and the message was transmitted to Xiao Ran.
"Damn, it's really troublesome. If I had known it, I wouldn't have rented that courtyard." Xiao Ran complained in his heart and walked towards the high priest's building in the center of the city. It has been seven days since Xiao Ran bought the courtyard, and
That is to say, it has been seven days since the high priest was held hostage by him and the soul king committed suicide. With so much time, Xiao Ran believed that the matter must have been discovered. If there are experts sent down, they must have arrived in the city by this time.
That's right.
This time, Xiao Ran went there just to see if anything special happened.
Xiao Ran walked straight to the high priest's building. When he was within a kilometer of the high priest's building, the two mice behind him that had been following him took the initiative to leave.
"No, is the High Priest sign so effective? It can even scare away people who are following me." Xiao Ran thought depressingly, thinking that if someone sneakily followed him next time, he would just go here.
You can easily get rid of them by visiting a small area.
The two mice here got rid of them, but the man who rented the house to Xiao Ran continued to chase after Xiao Ran. After being ignored by Xiao Ran twice, this man was already very angry. But for some reason, this man
He had his eyes on Xiao Ran and had no intention of giving up. Xiao Ran's mind had just overheard another plan he had come up with.
At this moment, this person indeed appeared around Xiao Ran again. Where Xiao Ran was now, was the square area in the center of the city. The square was very vast, with all kinds of entertainment facilities inside, and many people came here every day.
After Xiao Ran discovered him, he didn't wait for the other party to come over to him, and just took advantage of the situation and walked up.
Xiao Ran smiled at him from a distance. When the middle-aged man saw Xiao Ran actually smiling at him, he thought that Xiao Ran recognized him and wanted to say hello to him. He came up to him very happily, thinking proudly in his heart:
"This man is indeed very smart, until the group of people here in the square were too afraid to follow him. No wonder he ignored me the first two times. It turned out that I wrongly blamed him."
Xiao Ran walked up carelessly. When he was only five meters away from the other party, the other party stopped there, waiting for Xiao Ran with a smile on his face.
"Bang -" Xiao Ran didn't stop, walking as if he didn't see him, and knocked the other person to the ground hard. Not to mention, Xiao Ran stepped on him and walked over, as if nothing happened.
Just like everyone else, they left here.
The opponent was knocked over by Xiao Ran without any preparation. What was even more annoying was that Xiao Ran kicked him on the arm and stomach. This kick was specifically intended to teach the opponent a lesson.
The middle-aged man only thought he heard a "squeak". When he angrily wanted to get up and catch up, he raised his arm and put it on the ground, and felt a heartbreaking pain in his arm.
"Ah - my arm, my bones!" He cried out angrily. The whole arm just hung by his side, unable to move at all. The slightest movement would cause a sharp pain. Where Xiao Ran stepped on his foot,
The bones in that arm were completely broken by him.
"Humph, I was still thinking of bumping into me to attract my attention." Xiao Ran stood in the distance and smiled proudly, then continued to walk towards the high priest's building. The people around him just watched for a while, and saw the man with a broken arm bone.
The people staggered away feebly and dispersed.
"Everyone, give in. Today our great priest will hold a new coronation ceremony, and a new priest will be born."
Xiao Ran saw the door of the priest's building open today a hundred meters away, and a hundred-meter-long red carpet was laid from outside the door and all the way into the building.
Coronation ceremony, how come I haven't heard of such a thing? Xiao Ran walked over with some doubts, but the entire building was already controlled by a large number of city defense personnel. Even the small group of five people wandering around Xiao Ran's
The people next to the hospital also appeared here today. More and more people gathered around, and various experts appeared in the city, using their Yuan Power to release sound waves to spread the news throughout the city.
After a while, the place was completely surrounded. Xiao Ran heard the news from the beginning, so he was in the innermost circle and could see all the scenes.
"Welcome our Lord City Lord!" the ceremony official shouted at the top of his lungs, and immediately a carriage fell from the sky and landed in the center of the venue. A slightly stout man in his fifties or sixties stepped out of the carriage. This one
The man was dressed in rich clothes, and the remaining flesh on his face was just enough to cover his face with a professional smile, and his eyes were narrowed into a slit.
The city lord waved his hand, stood on the red carpet and looked around everyone and said: "Dear outstanding citizens! Today our high priest of Qiming City will be transferred, so we ushered in a new high priest. Here today, we
A major ceremony will be held for the handover of the two priests. Please ask our high priest to come out and say a few final words for everyone!"
"The original high priest? Isn't that in my beast control card? When did he appear here again?" Xiao Ran deliberately took a look at the beast control card. The high priest was still there honestly.
It was impossible to get out of his beast control card. At this moment, Xiao Ran also became confused.
Xiao Ran's eyes were fixed on the open door. After the city lord's excited words fell, a man wearing a white robe slowly walked out from inside.
The man who came out was really similar to the high priest Xiao Ran had captured before. Whether he was fat, thin, tall or short, or his voice was all carved from the same mold, there was no difference at all.
"If I release the real high priest from the beast control card now, then I won't be able to tell which one is real and which one is fake! Maybe the one I caught is fake." Xiao Ran looked at it.
Looking at the high priest, he thought in his mind. He separated a spiritual thought and entered the beast control card, transformed into his own appearance and asked: "High priest, you saw that I let go of the door of the beast control card just now, what is the person outside?"
Who is it? Why does it look exactly like you? Are you two twins?"
"It can also be said that they are my twins, because when we priests are born, just in case, a little bit of tissue on our bodies will be preserved. Just to prevent this kind of thing from happening and causing internal chaos." The high priest muttered.
He said with eyes closed, "But these clones cannot be used as real bodies. First, they have no memory, and second, the clones have no strength."
"You priests seem to have mastered civilization, but you still want to restrict people's thoughts and control their beliefs. I really don't understand what the Lord of the Soul World you call is thinking." Xiao Ran's eyes flickered,
I feel more and more that this highest organization in the soul world seems very mysterious and strange.
"Praise to the great Lord of the Soul World. Dear citizens of the city, I have been studying something here with great concentration, but I have not given you any help during this period of time. Now that my research has yielded results, I cannot continue to stay here.
Now, the person who will replace me will be a great priest." After the high priest's clone finished speaking, his whole body began to melt and shrink, and finally only one robe remained and fell to the ground.
"Everyone, the high priest has left." The city lord came out and picked up the clothes on the ground and said, "Please make way for the trusted high priest to come."
The crowd around the red carpet immediately made way for a spacious road in an orderly manner, and everyone's eyes were cast into the distance.
A man wearing a red brocade robe walked slowly from a distance. No one knew where he came from. He appeared suddenly like a ghost, and people's eyes followed his approach and moved to the city lord's side.
The city lord slowly put up the clothes and put them on the priest. Suddenly, Xiao Ran noticed a magnificent power suddenly washing down from the void. The priest, who originally only had the strength of the late Da Luo Jinxian, suddenly rose up under the infusion of this power.
In the early stage of Jiutian Xuanxian.
Xiao Ran used his spiritual mind to check, and sure enough, this priest was the same as the other priests. The clothes on his body had the same characteristics. No matter how hard he checked, he could not see through the other person's true face.
