The Hero of the Husband

The fruits of the Dao were naturally extremely good, but life was obviously a bit more important.

"It's still better to play it safe," Qin Ran said. He cherished his life very much and did not want to stay behind.

He discovered that after Huang Feiyu had transformed into fire, his temperament had become more ostentatious and fiery.

The previous Huang Feiyu was a character who seemed to have maxed out his EQ, IQ, talent and cunning. The current Huang Feiyu, as Qin Ran examined the flames around him, really did seem to have become fire, irascible and irritable like fire, devoid of cunning and IQ.

"Uncle-Master, why be so cautious and careful, wretched like a rat, just to live one lifetime?" Huang Feiyu said. "If you live like this, even if you can survive for thousands or tens of thousands of years and attain immortality and the Dao, what meaning would that have?"

These words were extremely rude, practically insulting Qin Ran for being as timid as a rat.

Qin Ran's expression was a bit ugly, but he did not flare up. He only said, "It's better to be more cautious."

"Uncle-Master is clearly only in his twenties, yet acts like a hundred year old man, utterly boring!" Huang Feiyu shook his head.

Li Shiyin did not detect any insults in Huang Feiyu's previous words, but she could tell that his later words about the Master being old and boring were insulting.

She frowned at Huang Feiyu and said, "If Senior Brother wants to go by himself, just go! Where do all these nagging words come from?!"

Whether it was being nagged by a woman or being called timid and weak by a junior, in any case, Huang Feiyu was rendered speechless for a time and could not open his mouth to speak anymore.

Seeing his silly disciple stand up for him, Qin Ran secretly laughed to himself. He turned to look at Tian Wenjin and asked, "Do you want to go as well?"

Tian Wenjin hesitated very much. She was no longer as arrogant and proud as when she had just joined the sect. Now she knew her own talent and strength, and could roughly find her own position.

She knew that she was only at the middle Foundation Establishment stage. The battles that those at the Core Formation and Yuan Ying stages participated in were not something she should get involved in.

However, she did not answer Qin Ran, but looked instead to Huang Feiyu.

At sects on peaks as flourishing with people as Sword Peak, masters could not possibly arrange everything in detail for their disciples like Qin Ran did for Li Shiyin. More often, the disciples were left to freely cultivate on their own.

For example, in the two months since Tian Wenjin had joined the sect, her master had only met with her twice. In truth, it was Huang Feiyu who had been guiding her these past two months...

It was very much like a university class advisor whom you barely saw a few times in four years.

And also because Tian Wenjin actually liked Huang Feiyu, so even for matters like this, she subconsciously sought Huang Feiyu's decision.

"Neither daring to go here nor daring to go there, then why not just die?" Huang Feiyu's temperament had truly changed much. He said, "A hero wields the azure sword, establishing his grand reputation. Strumming the sword and singing, treading the heavens and traveling, magnificent and passionate is best."

These words did have some masculine air, heroic spirit. But Qin Ran had lived two lifetimes. In his previous life, China had thousands of years of splendid civilization, with countless famous sayings and idioms that he had heard many times. Hearing Huang Feiyu speak this way now did not stir any ripples in his heart.

Instead, he laughed and borrowed Cao Boss's words, saying, "A hero has great aspirations in his breast, excellent schemes in his belly. He contains the mechanisms of the universe, and swallows and spits out the ambitions of heaven and earth!"

These words of Cao Boss were much higher level than Huang Feiyu's. Hearing them, Huang Feiyu's heart surged. He almost asked "And who can be this hero?", but he saw the smile on Qin Ran's face and knew that he was just mocking him.

His expression immediately darkened... He did not have an expression, just the fiery aura above his head pressed down a bit.

He harrumphed, not wanting to speak with Qin Ran anymore. He went around Qin Ran first and said to Tian Wenjin, "Let's go!"

"Farewell for now, Uncle-Master!" Tian Wenjin bowed to Qin Ran, then followed Huang Feiyu flying away.

Seeing how these two's behavior had switched with their previous selves, Qin Ran felt a subtle feeling in his heart.

"Wait!" He called out to stop Tian Wenjin.

"Does Uncle-Master have any instructions?" Tian Wenjin gently asked.

Qin Ran took out a Formation Stone from his Universe Pouch and handed it to Tian Wenjin, saying, "This is a Formation Stone. I left nine Formation Stones in the Land of Immortal Legacy that can be controlled by this Formation Stone to form a formation."

"But I don't know about formations," Tian Wenjin said with difficulty as she looked at the Formation Stone in her hand.

"Perhaps Nephew Huang knows," Qin Ran said. He also taught Tian Wenjin a set of hand seals, "I left some pills under the roots of the Devouring Demon Willow. This hand seal can activate them."

"Pills?" Tian Wenjin did not understand.

"They have effects similar to Great Category Talismans, Divine Thunder Talismans, and Talismans of Heavenly Fire," Qin Ran said.

Tian Wenjin understood a bit more and committed the hand seals to memory.

The two of them continued towards the mist.

When they arrived in front of the mist, the mist before them suddenly surged violently, and a figure was blasted flying out from within.

Huang Feiyu was shocked. He hurriedly pulled Tian Wenjin aside to evade, suspecting that someone had made a preemptive attack on them.

But that figure did not care about them after flying out. It flew out of control, directly smashing through four or five thick dead trees before crashing into the ground and sinking three feet down.

Huang Feiyu looked closely and discovered that the figure sunk three feet into the earth and stone was an unparalleled beauty in white clothes. Her appearance was shocking, with red lips and blood, able to make all men in the world feel their hearts shake! "Who is she?" Even Huang Feiyu, a man who no longer possessed that kind of secular function, could not help but cry out in astonishment in his heart.

"Five-Tailed Fox Spirit?!" Qin Ran noticed the commotion behind him and came back. Seeing that over-perfect woman on the ground, he immediately recognized her.

He had seen this face before, and would definitely never forget it... Any man who saw this face would never forget it.

"Why would she be the one blasted out?" Qin Ran did not understand. When he came out, the beast side was at an absolute advantage, right?

Li Shiyin noticed something was off and pretended to be unconcerned as she asked, "Master, do you know her?"

"Can't say I know her..." Qin Ran was still guessing about the situation in the mist and did not notice Li Shiyin's expression as he casually replied, "Only seen her twice."

One time was even when they saw her together, only Li Shiyin had been asleep.

"Oh!" Li Shiyin was relieved.

Long Qiqi secretly glanced at Li Shiyin, inevitably worried for this silly girl - she was too easy to deal with...

The Five-Tailed Fox Spirit crawled up from the ground and looked around. Suddenly seeing Qin Ran not far away, her eyes lit up and she loudly shouted, "Young Master, save me!"

In the Five-Tailed Fox Spirit's understanding of Qin Ran, he was a lustful, cowardly, sinister, and crafty guy - the best candidate to beg for help from right now.

Being cowardly and lustful meant he would save her, while being sinister and crafty meant he could save her.

Of course, Qin Ran would never actually save her.

In Qin Ran's perspective, he had only met this vixen twice. He didn't even know her name, so why should he save her? He was about to directly reject her...

Then he suddenly noticed Li Shiyin's expression was a bit off.

Hm? Not right! What's with that look? Qin Ran panicked for no reason and hurriedly explained to Li Shiyin, "I really don't know her!"

His voice had just fallen when the peerless beauty the Five-Tailed Fox Spirit had transformed into flew straight towards him. Her brows and eyes were pitiful as she pleaded with him, "Young Master, I obtained a fruit of the Dao, hurry and run away..."

"???" Qin Ran was confused, his mind full of question marks.

He really wanted to say, Sis, we really aren't familiar!

But before he could speak, over twenty figures flew out from the mist again with a series of booms. These figures included humans and beasts, males and females, old and young, but no matter what, their auras were extremely terrifying...

None below the early Core Formation stage!

As these figures emerged, they all looked towards Qin Ran's side with formidable gazes... Their eyes could really kill!

"So she dared to privately take the fruit of the Dao, turns out she had backers," someone coldly laughed.
