Summit of the Old Gods

[Immortal Sheep, are you there?] Lu Ran pondered and decided to pray to the deity.

[Hmm.] A voice echoed, putting Lu Ran at ease.

At this stage, the deities were all in the Third Heaven, not the Human World.

Lu Ran was also in this realm, so he didn't need to be near the Divine Mountain to communicate with the deity.

[Disciple just slaughtered the Martial Monk.]

[Oh?] The usually composed, even cold Immortal Sheep surprisingly raised its tone.

You look like someone who's never seen the world~

Lu Ran wanted to retort, but... hmm, didn't dare.

A bit timid.

[Disciple just went to kill Dong Ting, planning to let the Faceless Jade Venerable Clan in to create chaos in the Heavenly Realm.] Lu Ran reported the situation, [Just after killing Dong Ting, the Martial Monk and the Jade-faced Snake teleported in.]

After sending the message, Lord God did not respond for a long time.

Lu Ran searched for the Jade-faced Snake's figure, waited patiently, and still sought, [Immortal Sheep?]

[You also took down Dong Ting.]

[Yes, Dong Ting and Purple Thunder Demon Peng were both taken down, and Purple Thunder Orchid was also captured into Yuanxi's Divine Fire Demon Confinement Cage.]

[Hehe...] Immortal Sheep suddenly laughed, a laugh full of emotion.

Seemed a bit gratified?

[You're happy too early.] Lu Ran suddenly interjected.

Immortal Sheep's laughter abruptly stopped.

Not sure if it was stifled.

Lu Ran continued, [Martial Monk-Jade-faced Snake suddenly descended, catching us off guard, and disciple had no choice but to have the Evil Shadow Guardian lead the Jade-faced Snake away from the battlefield.

After we dealt with the Martial Monk and turned back to search, we couldn't find the Jade-faced Snake.]

Immortal Sheep asked, [How did you take down Dong Ting and the Martial Monk?]

[Domain of Silence!] Lu Ran immediately responded, [After leaving the Human World, disciple went to challenge Nu Ying as planned, seized her Divine Weapon Domain, and also recruited Nu Ying into Ran Sect.]

Immortal Sheep: "..."

Simple words, but the amount of information was astonishingly large, and it didn't sound quite right.

Robbed Nu Ying of the Divine Weapon Domain and even recruited Nu Ying into Ran Sect?

How would Lord Immortal Sheep know that Lu Ran wasn't good at other things, but he was quite adept at devouring everything.

The last one whose Divine Weapon he shattered, domain he seized, and was recruited into Ran Sect was a guy named Wu Xiao.

In comparison, Nu Ying had more presence.

After all, she was a deity~

At least she didn't let herself be ordered around by Lu Ran like Wu Xiao, devote herself entirely to him, even putting her life in his hands...

[Later, disciple went to Yan Paper God Mountain, and with the help of Rou Paperman, together took down Thunder God Mountain.]

[You are only in the Second Level of the Heavenly Realm, activating Domain of Chi Ji should consume a lot for you.] Immortal Sheep inquired.

[Disciple has...formed a Simurgh Phoenix Unity Contract with Rou Paperman and can use her internal energy.] Lu Ran responded softly.

[Ha.] Immortal Sheep let out a cold laugh.

The sound made Lu Ran's scalp tingle.

He expected to be scolded, but instead heard Lord God's cold voice, [Rou Paperman is quite good at assessing the situation.]

[Disciple's strength is insufficient, Divine Power is especially needed, and Ran Sect is in need of people, so disciple made a contract with her...]

Immortal Sheep responded, [Her ability is good, since she is willing to bind with you, you might as well use her.]

Lu Ran breathed a sigh of relief and speculated, [Rou Paperman's life span is coming to an end, after knowing your mystery and power, she probably wants to find a way to extend her life with us, so she has been supporting us with great effort.]

Immortal Sheep responded casually, not making much of it.

Lu Ran brought the topic back, somewhat troubled, [Immortal Sheep, if I can't find the Jade-faced Snake here and close its mouth, you might be in danger!]

Previously at Thunder God Mountain, when a First-class God Demon came to aid, Lu Ran was outside the battle and saw it very clearly.

After the two appeared from the Teleportation Array, the Martial Monk fell downward, kicking out a Golden Dragon, while the Jade-faced Snake flew upwards, transforming into a sky-shocking giant serpent.

And then the Jade-faced Snake exhaled a thick Immortal Breath downward.

The Jade-faced Snake clan didn't have eyes to see through the fog.

Presumably, the Jade-faced Snake couldn't necessarily see the Ran Sect members clearly; she just wanted to corrode all the small thieves.

Hmm...

No matter what, at least the Martial Monk's intense reaction, those cries of "treacherous disciple," the Jade-faced Snake should have heard.

Lu Ran laid out all his analysis, then said, [The traitor in the Martial Monk Faction should be easy to identify, and it also can't be ruled out that before spraying Immortal Breath, the Jade-faced Snake saw other Ran Sect warriors.]

Lord Immortal Sheep once again went silent, unclear of his thoughts.

Lu Ran was worried, [Recently, have the God Demons suspected my identity while investigating the Human Clan's forces? What did you tell the God Demon camp?]

Immortal Sheep finally spoke, saying, [You seem unaware of what the death of the Martial Monk truly means.]

Lu Ran's attitude was earnest, [I ask for your guidance, Immortal Sheep.]

Immortal Sheep slowly said, [The Martial Monk was a First-class God, a core leader of the God Demon camp, and one of the most powerful God Demons.]

Lu Ran nodded lightly.

Immortal Sheep's attitude slightly changed, expressing emotion, [By taking down Dong Ting, it means to the other God Demon leaders that you now have the qualification to converse with them.

Taking down the Martial Monk is even more significant.

God Demons will fully awaken, realizing how strong you have become, knowing all their strategies have failed.]

[Hmm!] Lu Ran continuously nodded.

The God Demon camp's attempts at seduction, ambushes, threats, etc., in the end, couldn't stop the rise of the Ran Sect.

With the death of the Martial Monk, everyone in the God Demon camp will likely be in panic.
