Chapter 339: Creating a Crimson Paper Person

"Eh?"

Lu Ran held the ancient bronze mirror, carefully examining the jasmine flower.

Suddenly, a slender jade hand appeared in the mirror, gently plucking the flower.

This unexpected scene left Lu Ran startled.

He quickly zoomed out and saw the owner of the hand.

The upper half of her body was that of a woman, dressed in white with a white veil draped over her.

Her long, black hair was pulled up high, and the white veil fluttered in the wind.

The lower half of her body was that of a snake, covered in white scales.

The scales were as white as jade, shimmering with a strange luster, and incredibly beautiful.

Demon Jade-Faced Serpent!

She held the flower under her nose, inhaling its fragrance, seemingly entranced.

Terrifyingly, her lips parted to reveal a long snake's tongue!

The forked tongue delicately held a jasmine petal.

Then, a pink, agile tongue wrapped around an entire jasmine flower and swallowed it.

Lu Ran: !!!

My flower!

Lu Ran carefully observed the scene in the mirror and reached out to the side, his palm filled with surging energy.

Basic Evil Spell: Sinful Mirror!

Another exquisite ancient bronze mirror was assembled.

Instantly, it grew larger, transforming into a full-length mirror.

River Rank Evil Spell: Mirror Moon!

This was the core technique of the Sinful Mirror Demon Clan—the art of teleportation!

"Sss?"

In the full-length mirror, the Jade-Faced Serpent frowned slightly, writhing her snake body and quickly retreating.

As she retreated, her long tongue wrapped around another flower and pulled it into her mouth.

"Snap! Snap!"

In the mirror, a pair of palms reached out, gripping the sides of the frame.

Immediately after, Lu Ran emerged from within the mirror.

This scene was incredibly shocking! If anyone witnessed it, it would astonish the entire world!

However, Lu Ran was not aware of this.

He watched as the last jasmine flower disappeared into the red lips of the Jade-Faced Serpent.

"Sss~"

The Jade-Faced Serpent appeared slightly surprised, sizing up Lu Ran from head to toe.

"All three flowers, and you ate them all?" Lu Ran's expression was one of distress.

The Jade-Faced Serpent, of course, couldn't understand human speech, but her intelligence was exceptionally high.

It was comparable to the intelligence of the Evil Demon Black Lance Emperor!

Seeing the human's regretful expression, the Jade-Faced Serpent realized why Lu Ran had come.

"Sss!"

Energy surged in the Jade-Faced Serpent's hand, and she quickly summoned a jade Ruyi.

Basic Evil Spell: Jade Ruyi!

The lower half of the Jade-Faced Serpent's body was a snake tail, measuring a full eight meters long.

As she slightly lifted her lower body, she effortlessly reached a height of three meters.

Looking down from above, she gazed at Lu Ran.

This condescending posture made Lu Ran's temper flare! Such a small demon dared to challenge the bigwigs of the River Realm!

And they had the audacity to show off in front of him!

"Huff~"

The Jade-Faced Serpent held the jade Ruyi in front of her face and blew out a breath of immortal energy.

Evil Spell: Immortal Breath!

Lu Ran remained calm, pulling the full-length mirror in front of him with his other hand.

"Huff~~~"

Wherever the immortal energy passed, flowers, grass, and trees withered and turned to ashes.

However, the immortal energy that blew towards Lu Ran was deflected into the mirror, causing him no harm.

"Sss!"

The Jade-Faced Serpent's beautiful eyes narrowed, and she immediately stopped blowing.

At the edge of the mirror, a head quietly poked out, glancing at the Jade-Faced Serpent and even winking at her.

The Jade-Faced Serpent's expression changed!

Her noble and pure face now bore a hint of anger.

"Hmph!" Lu Ran coldly snorted, casually dispersing the full-length mirror and reaching for the knife handle on his shoulder.

At this moment, Lu Ran had three knives on his back!

The three knives were positioned parallel, all tilted towards his right shoulder.

Two of the knife sheaths were black and gold, identical in design and finely crafted, appearing quite valuable.

Only one knife sheath was made of iron, looking a bit crudely made.

The knife that Lu Ran held was slowly drawn from this iron sheath—Eight Directions Destruction!

"Sss!"

The Jade-Faced Serpent hissed.

How dare these insignificant mortals provoke a noble being?

Her face turned frosty, and she blew another breath of immortal energy at the jade Ruyi.

"Sss!!!"

The immortal energy passed through the jade Ruyi, transforming into a white-scaled giant python, roaring as it charged forward!

Evil Spell: Immortal Python!

"Tsk!"

The blade pierced the flesh!

The bloodstained tip of the knife pierced through the Jade-Faced Serpent's back, penetrating her chest and appearing before her eyes.

The Jade-Faced Serpent's pupils contracted violently!

At this moment, she could no longer maintain her condescending posture.

But it was already too late.

Lu Ran stood behind the Jade-Faced Serpent, standing in mid-air on gusts of wind.

He held the Jade-Faced Serpent's shoulder with one hand and pierced her heart with the Eight Directions Destruction in the other.

Flame Gate Sword Technique, Third Form: Star Spark!

This was a move Lu Ran had comprehended while fighting the Sinful Mirror Demon in the River Realm.

The name of the sword technique was also inspired by the beautiful demon cave, the Milky Way.

Don't teleport first, then strike with the sword.

Instead, strike with the sword first, then teleport!

"Huff~"

The Jade-Faced Serpent's white veil fluttered lightly, brushing against Lu Ran's face, carrying a faint, enchanting fragrance.

Lu Ran returned the courtesy, lifting his knife.

He slashed open her chest, splitting her skull.

A pungent bloody smell spread, dispelling the intoxicating fragrance.

"Pfft~"

The Jade-Faced Serpent's corpse quietly shattered, turning into thick mist.

Lu Ran remained standing in mid-air, summoning the divine power orb from his neck and absorbing the mist.

He thought back to when he had first arrived at the Rain Alley City High-Speed Railway Station.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Lu Tianjiao was already an exceptionally talented and unrivaled individual.

However, the so-called "First Tianjiao of Daxia" was far inferior to the "Lord of the Evil Sect"!

In one sentence:

The fewer cameras, the stronger Lu Ran becomes!

"Huff~"

Lu Ran landed lightly and summoned an ancient bronze mirror once more.

He swiped and swiped, but this time, he didn't see Jasmine.

Lu Ran wasn't discouraged.

He still had a long way to go in his training within the Spirit Peak.

With the Evil Spell · Bonding Mirror by his side, he would eventually forge a connection with the mysterious Jasmine.

Lu Ran confirmed multiple times that there were no other living beings around, then closed his eyes.

In his spiritual world, Lu Ran was closely connected to the Crimson Paper Evil Sculpture.

"Divine power shapes its body."

He slowly raised his right hand, reaching forward, and a surge of intense energy rippled through the air.

"Primordial Qi constructs its soul."

Lu Ran muttered to himself, repeatedly reciting the incantation.

Soon, a large red figure gradually took shape.

Crimson Paper Person!

Finally, I've managed to mold you!

Back then, on the altar, you wanted to take me away.

Later, on the night of the full moon, you held me and flew into the boundless rainy night.

On the night of the college entrance exam, you came again, chasing and blocking me! Today,

I'll surrender to you. Cough, I'll summon you, and we'll have a good chat! Lu Ran had many thoughts, but he didn't dare to act rashly.

It must be said that the Crimson Paper Person's aura was too strong.

Wearing a phoenix crown and a crimson robe, she exuded elegance and dignity!

"This crimson robe suits you well, giving you an imposing presence." Lu Ran muttered softly, slowly raising his hand.

The Crimson Paper Person, who usually had a submissive demeanor, suddenly lifted her eyes and looked at Lu Ran.

Lu Ran's face froze, and his hand stopped mid-air.

The Crimson Paper Person remained expressionless, her beautiful eyes gently gazing at Lu Ran.

"Ding-a-ling, ding-a-ling~"

The mountain breeze blew.

From the exquisite phoenix crown on the woman's head, a pleasant sound rang out.

People might not believe it, but Lu Ran was a bit intimidated.

He was used to seeing the Crimson Paper Person's eyes burning with passion, almost obsessed.

But he had never seen her so still, quietly observing him.

"Close your eyes." Lu Ran pressed his hand down.

The Crimson Paper Person tilted her head slightly, seeming a bit puzzled.

Lu Ran: "."

In other words,

Your temperament doesn't suit acting cute.

The Crimson Paper Person suddenly knelt down, as if she understood her master's intention.

She placed her hands together, pressing them against her lower abdomen, and bowed her head respectfully.

As she moved, the exquisite phoenix crown jingled again.

"Erm." Lu Ran took a step back, observing the Crimson Paper Person.

The evil minions he created didn't harbor any covetous thoughts towards their master.

There was only the concept of obedience he instilled in them during their creation.

Come to think of it,

The Crimson Paper Person who invaded the mortal realm had her essence derived from the evil demon's true form.

The Crimson Paper Person summoned by Lu Ran had her essence derived from the evil sculpture in his sculpture garden.

The tool used to cultivate the evil sculptures was a trace of the evil demon's primordial power carried by the Crimson Paper Person's soul, not the soul itself.

Therefore, the personality of the Crimson Paper Person's soul couldn't influence the evil sculptures in the sculpture garden.

"Stand up." Lu Ran spoke.

The Crimson Paper Person lifted her eyes to look at Lu Ran, then tilted her head, still puzzled.

"Alright then." Lu Ran said helplessly, starting the teaching process from scratch.

He stepped forward, supporting the Crimson Paper Person's arm, and helped her up.

The Crimson Paper Person slowly rose, and in the process, she hugged Lu Ran's arm.

Lu Ran: ???

No!

Sister!

What are you doing? Lu Ran had helped both Night Charm and the Ghost General, and they didn't have such an immediate reaction!

So, was the Crimson Paper Person's desire to find her ideal partner unchangeable? Was this a racial trait?

"Stop, stop, stop." Lu Ran immediately pulled his arm away.

The Crimson Paper Person released her hands in a timely manner, placing them together and resting them on her lower abdomen, maintaining an elegant and dignified posture.

It was as if the previous action had nothing to do with her.

For a moment, Lu Ran also felt a bit unsure, wondering if he had overreacted.

Maybe she was just trying to steady herself?

Lu Ran carefully examined the Crimson Paper Person.

The Crimson Paper Person faced Lu Ran, her eyes downcast and submissive, showing utmost respect.

"Let's go." Lu Ran rubbed his face, feeling a bit insecure.

He waved his hand, turned, and left, summoning the Evil Spell · Bonding Mirror as he did so.

The Crimson Paper Person understood the gesture, but instead of walking, she slowly flew up.

Her feet lifted about ten centimeters off the ground, and she silently followed Lu Ran.

"Go!"

Lu Ran pointed to a distant tree.

The Crimson Paper Person hesitated for a moment, then flew towards the tree, interpreting her master's intention from his gesture.

"Come!" Lu Ran nodded in satisfaction, waving her over.

The master and his minion walked through the forest, with Lu Ran constantly instructing her with simple commands.

After a few minutes, Lu Ran stopped and looked towards the ancient bronze mirror floating to his right.

Within the Bonding Mirror, a Jade-faced Snake appeared!

Tsk tsk, what a refined taste!

This Jade-faced Snake was actually coiled around a tree, gazing at the beautiful mountain scenery?

Behind Lu Ran, the Crimson Paper Person also turned to look at the Bonding Mirror.

The Crimson Paper Person had always been expressionless, and even when she saw the graceful Jade-faced Snake, she didn't react at all.

In no time, her gaze returned to Lu Ran.

Unintentionally,

As she watched Lu Ran's back, a hint of resentment seemed to flash in her eyes.
