Chapter 229: The Case is Solved

Chapter 229: The Case is Solved

"Pfft!"

The headless body of the Crimson Paper Person shattered into mist.

Lu Ran held the divine power orb around his neck, sucking in the mist.

In a place unseen by others, the Crimson Paper Person's wraith was also drawn into the Divine Demon Sculpture Garden by Lu Ran.

What does it mean to leave nothing behind?

"Is it over?" Jiang Ruyi burst into the room, wearing a headlamp, and quickly inspected the surroundings.

"She was wearing a red veil, so I took the opportunity and went for it," Lu Ran said, also wearing a headlamp that he hadn't turned on.

Suddenly, a beam of light shone on his face.

Lu Ran narrowed his eyes and shielded his face with one hand, "What are you doing?"

Scarlet Sun finally turned her head, using her headlamp to illuminate other areas, examining the interior decoration, "Let me see if you're injured."

Li Ming walked in, "Such an opportunity isn't that rare."

"Oh?" Lu Ran's heart stirred, "Do the Crimson Paper Clan always wear red veils?"

"Not usually," Li Ming patiently explained, "But when they occupy a house and rest inside, there's a high chance they'll wear a red veil."

"I see," Lu Ran nodded.

This characteristic of the clan was indeed intriguing.

Are they that devoted?

It should be known that the Crimson Paper Clan are humanoid demons, unlike beastly demons with keen senses of smell and hearing.

Once they cover their faces with red veils, it's like severing an arm.

It's hard to tell who they're waiting for.

No, it shouldn't be referred to as 'they'.

The Crimson Paper minions are all made from the sculptures of the demon lord, and their habits are inherited from the demon lord.

So, who is the willful consort that the Crimson Paper lord is waiting for?

Lu Ran racked his brains but couldn't think of any demon that dressed like a groom.

"Lu Ran," a man's voice called out from outside the door, presumably Li Xin.

"Here!" Lu Ran immediately walked out.

As he stepped over the threshold, he suddenly looked up!

In the night sky, a full moon hung high.

Against the backdrop of the round moon, a figure draped in a large red phoenix robe was floating high in the air.

The night breeze gently brushed her, causing her robe to flutter, and her phoenix crown tinkled lightly.

From Lu Ran's perspective, the Crimson Paper Person was entirely framed by the full moon.

It was a scene of exquisite horror.

Lu Ran even wanted to take out his phone to capture this moment.

This was too beautiful.

Aside from the bride's pale face, there wasn't a single flaw, was there? Lu Ran furrowed his brows slightly, sensing that the Crimson Paper Person was staring at him intently, her gaze no longer on anyone else.

"Huh?" Lu Ran was a bit dazed.

Before he came out, Soldier Li Xin stood in the courtyard, and Jing Jing Chen was on the rooftop keeping watch.

As a demon, the Crimson Paper Person would surely have murderous intent upon seeing these two humans, unable to shift her gaze.

But as soon as Lu Ran came out, the Crimson Paper Person changed her target? Lu Ran was puzzled, as he hadn't even used the Divine Technique: Sorrowful Sound.

How did the aggro shift so suddenly?

"Hiss!"

The Crimson Paper Person let out a low growl and rapidly descended from the night sky, charging towards Lu Ran.

Behind Lu Ran, a white jade talisman suddenly flew out.

"Whoosh!"

Jade Talisman Divine Art of Explosive Flame! Jiang Ruyi was surrounded by four white jade talismans, and she stepped out of the house with large strides.

"Huff!"

The large red phoenix robe worn by the Crimson Paper Person fluttered loudly.

She stretched out a hand, widening the sleeve, to intercept the Inferno Charm.

Demon Art of Crimson Paper Sleeve!

The powerful Inferno Charm was directly absorbed by the Crimson Paper Sleeve.

It was like a mud ox entering the sea, without even a spark flying out! Lu Ran nodded inwardly, and in his heart, he heard the voice of a little lynx cat: Marvelous!

Marvelous indeed!

This evil technique should be mine to use!

"Hmph," the Crimson Paper Person coldly snorted and fiercely shook off the red phoenix robe.

Demon Art of Crimson Bridal Robe!

The red robe's hem became larger and longer, like a surging red wave, descending upon them.

Judging from her posture, she seemed intent on crushing the humans.

"Hmph!" Another cold snort came from behind Lu Ran.

Scarlet Sun strode forward, pushing Lu Ran aside, and with her other hand, she held a giant hammer, which she swung forcefully upwards.

A phantom hammer shadow, engulfed in raging flames, slammed into the night sky.

"Boom!"

The flames exploded, and the shockwave rippled.

A

Although her weapon was only two meters long, the phantom hammer shadow she swung was three meters in size.

Heavenblazing Divine Art of Explosive Heaven!

"Bang! Bang!"

"Boom!"

The Crimson Paper Clan's defense against evil techniques was indeed formidable.

But today, she had met her match, encountering the explosive output of the Heaven Flame Follower!

"Die, you little fairy!" Scarlet Sun gritted her teeth, swinging the hammer with fierce momentum.

I don't care about your crimson bridal robe!

With me here, this wedding will not happen today!

"Crack!"

Amidst the continuous explosions, a particularly piercing sound mixed in.

The crimson bridal robe was shattered!

The Crimson Paper Person was knocked back into her original form, and although she still wore the phoenix robe, it was no longer the Demon Art of Crimson Bridal Robe.

Moreover, the Crimson Paper Clan did not inherently possess the ability to fly.

As the Demon Art of Crimson Bridal Robe was shattered, she began to fall.

Scarlet Sun's hammer didn't stop!

"Hiss!"

The Crimson Paper Person's face turned pale with anger.

As the phantom hammer shadow approached, she stretched out her palm again.

The sleeve widened, absorbing three or four phantom hammer shadows in succession.

"Huh?" Scarlet Sun widened her beautiful eyes, defiantly swinging her war hammer with even more ferocity.

The Crimson Paper Person quickly stabilized her fall and stood in the air again.

There was no change in her attire, but everyone knew that she had reactivated the Demon Art of Crimson Bridal Robe.

"Hiss!!"

The Crimson Paper Person was in a panic, screaming loudly.

She finally realized that she had dodged.

That Crimson Paper Sleeve couldn't indefinitely absorb the hammer's shadow.

If it absorbs too much in a short time, it will definitely explode if it can't withstand the pressure!

"Die!!"

Scarlet Sun squeezed out a word through gritted teeth, her anger intensifying with each strike.

Lu Ran was surprisingly quiet, silently observing the scene.

On the one hand, he was letting Jiang and Si duo ren get some practice.

On the other hand, Lu Ran's thoughts were heavy at this moment.

He keenly realized that something was amiss!

The Crimson Paper Person and Scarlet Sun were fighting fiercely, and at this critical juncture, the Crimson Paper Person's gaze kept glancing towards Lu Ran from time to time?

As if afraid that he would take the opportunity to escape.

Why was that?

We're all humans, with flesh and blood, and our flavors should be similar.

Why was the Crimson Paper Person only staring at him?

"Swoosh~Swoosh!"

Jiang Ruyi raised her left hand again, and two white jade talismans directly pressured the night sky demon.

The Crimson Paper Person immediately sidestepped, dodging the attack.

But this time, she miscalculated!

"Boom!"

The Explosive Flame Talisman didn't hit the demon but exploded beside her!

The fire suddenly lit up, and the flames raged.

The Crimson Paper Person's expression changed drastically!

Instinctively, she reached out to the side, and the large red sleeve with the embroidered dragon and phoenix once again opened at the cuff.

Along with the flames, the blast of the explosion was also absorbed into the sleeve.

"Sizzle~Sizzle~"

After the Explosive Flame Talisman, it was the Electric Shackle Talisman! Unlike the raging flames, the Electric Shackle Talisman spread at an incredibly fast speed.

Streaks of electricity resembled tiny snakes, scattering through the air. Although the sleeve absorbed some of it, most of the electricity had already formed a five-meter diameter sphere of lightning.

The Crimson Paper Person's pupils contracted violently!

Her body trembled, and she couldn't move at all.

Despite the protection of the crimson robe, her face and the flesh beneath her clothes were already covered in electricity.

"Bang!"

The illusory hammer shadow finally struck the Crimson Paper Person's head.

The flames concealed the bloody scene, instantly incinerating the shattered skull.

"Hmph."

Scarlet Sun held the war hammer and turned halfway, then slammed the hammer handle hard on the ground.

Immediately, she slightly raised her chin, her posture proud.

"Don't just stand there," Lu Ran urged, "Go absorb energy.

You're throwing away that hammer like it's free, can't you afford to live?"

Scarlet Sun assumed an arrogant stance, "You don't understand, this is called the MVP screen of the winning team!"

Lu Ran: ???

In fact, before this fifteenth, Scarlet Sun didn't understand this either.

Ever since she watched Lu Ran participate in 'Heavenly Talents', she learned a lot from the barrage of comments.

When Lu Ran single-handedly killed the Night Mirage, drew his sword, retreated, and threw out a sword flower;

When Lu Ran rescued his comrades, climbed out of the mud pit, and bleated towards the sky;

When Lu Ran killed the Puppet Shadow, caught the returning Radiant Light Saber, and wiped his fingers across the bloodstained blade,

Among the barrage of comments like "Amazing," "God of Passion," and "666," Scarlet Sun always saw comments like this:

"MVP screen of the winning team!"

It felt so cool!

"Stop posing and go." Lu Ran slapped Scarlet Sun's back.

Scarlet Sun immediately widened her eyes.

You little rascal, you're really bold, aren't you?

If I don't get angry at you, you take advantage and now you even dare to hit me?

"The mist has already dissipated," Jiang Ruyi said softly, taking Scarlet Sun's hand and giving it a light squeeze.

It was as if she was reminding this Heaven Flame big girl to hold back a little.

Lu Ran looked up at the night sky, and indeed, the Crimson Paper Person's remains had been blown to bits, and the energy from her shattered body had dissipated into the heavens and earth within a short time.

In the corner of the courtyard, the Li brothers looked at each other.

After dealing with two demons in a row, the brothers truly felt that these young people didn't need anyone's protection.

The trio's setup was excellent, with sufficient output and control, and they also had two divine weapons for protection.

There was also the unfathomably powerful Heavenly Talent, Lu Ran!

He had completely eliminated the possibility of being ambushed by demons and had firmly kept the Heaven Flame believers under his control, using them for his purposes.

What more training did this team need?

They should be brought into the military to directly execute missions, delve deeper, and clean out the demon abyss!

"The state of this Crimson Paper Person seems a bit off," Jiang Ruyi said, pulling Scarlet Sun behind her and looking at Lu Ran.

Lu Ran remained silent for a moment, then nodded.

Jiang Ruyi confirmed, "I didn't hear you use the Compassionate Voice."

Lu Ran nodded, "Yes, I didn't use it."

Jiang Ruyi's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and after a moment of thought, she suddenly said,

"Is it because you summoned the Crimson Paper Person at the God Reverence Platform?"

Lu Ran's eyes lit up, as it was very likely! At that time, he had summoned the demon lord himself!

And all the Crimson Paper minions were directly descended from the demon lord.

This also meant that

Jiang Ruyi's gaze was deep as she looked at Lu Ran, "So, last year on the night of the June 15th, when the Crimson Paper Person abducted you, it wasn't an accident.

So, they all want you."

Lu Ran: "."
