Chapter 351: The Poison Called Silken Threads

Chapter 351: The Poison Called Silken Threads

The day rushed by, and night slowly descended.

The group of five stood in the center of the square, with Wang Ling occasionally checking his watch.

From his increasingly frequent glances, it seemed that the battle was about to commence.

Suddenly, a radiant blade appeared behind Qiao Yuansi.

"Oh, bro, no need! I can protect myself." Qiao Yuansi feigned annoyance, but her smile was genuinely sweet.

Lu Ran squeezed the pompom on her knitted hat, "In a moment, I'll be moving around, you lead the team, and don't be reckless."

"Mhm, I know." Qiao Yuansi nodded repeatedly.

To achieve a higher score, Lu Ran would have to go all out tonight.

"Don't worry." A cool voice sounded from the side.

Lu Ran turned to see Guan Yiren nodding lightly, his expression resolute.

"Yeah, Brother Ran!" Niu Zhengzheng shouted in his raspy voice, "We'll protect our commander, so you can fight without worry!"

"Time's up!" Wang Ling interrupted their conversation.

Qiao Yuansi quickly released the lantern, which rose into the night sky.

Lu Ran placed his right hand by his side and gently clenched it, causing the Night Silence Sword to fall precisely into his palm.

Up until today, Lu Ran still couldn't comprehend the Divine Armament Domain of the Night Silence Sword.

Before the spirit of the sword fully formed, Lu Ran would always add a word of "quiet" after each kill.

This simple word was highly effective, guiding the Night Silence Sword towards its divine path.

Now, Lu Ran no longer needed to say "quiet."

The sword spirit, possessing intelligence, was also pondering, trying to understand what kind of domain awaited it on this "quiet" path.

"Chiiii—"

Immortal mist surged, and frosty snow danced wildly.

Qiao Yuansi instinctively closed her eyes, feeling the cold wind on her face.

When she opened them again, her brother's figure had already dashed far, far away.

"Go, go!" Qiao Yuansi whispered to herself.

At the crossroads, a cute but dumb scarecrow demon had already been beheaded by Lu Ran.

The tall and skinny headless body suddenly puffed up, transforming into a pile of straw, scattering straw leaves all over the ground.

This reminded Lu Ran of the night of the 15th of the last lunar month when the scarecrow demon clan's 'Night Parade of a Hundred Demons' caused chaos.

These damn things! Every year-end, they just want to start a fire.

During other months, when the rain pours in Rain Alley City, these scarecrow demons don't cause any trouble.

"Lu Lu Tianjiao."

"Lu Tianjiao." Several Moon Watchers greeted him, their legs submerged in the straw pile.

"Just doing my job, don't mind me." Lu Ran slightly lowered the brim of his hat, and immortal mist rose beneath his feet again.

He still wore his familiar outfit: black hat, black mask, and a sleek black combat uniform.

Before he finished speaking, his figure was already far away.

Wherever he passed, frosty snow danced wildly.

So cool it was almost annoying.

In the live stream, viewers expressed their dissatisfaction.

"Again? You're going to take me on a 3-second tour of the street again?"

"I'm gonna throw up! I used to get carsick, now I get 'sheep' sick."

"A kick to save the world~"

"Tsk tsk~ Ran Dog is so fast! At such a young age, he's already this fast, what will he be like in the future?"

"The last dance, I can't bear to part with Ran Bao! [Crying.JPG]"

"Huh? Stopped! Ran God was stopped?"

"It's not a dragon carriage, it's a sheep carriage!"

"Hmm~~~" Lu Ran suddenly groaned, causing the viewers to pause in confusion.

What?

Can this be broadcast?

At the crossroads, Lu Ran's figure wobbled.

His face, hidden under the brim of his hat and mask, looked terrible.

Forced to stop from his usual reckless charge, he stumbled backward.

"Squeak~"

"Squeak! Squeak, squeak!!"

The viewers might not hear it, and the Moon Watchers on the street probably didn't feel anything special either.

But that incessant squeaking, piercing his ears, made Lu Ran's heart race with irritation!

He quickly retreated over ten meters and looked up.

On the outer wall of a three-story office building, a group of fluffy little creatures hung.

They resembled bats, their size no larger than a palm.

They had pointed ears, large dark golden eyes, golden-brown fur, and a pair of dark golden bat wings.

Batwing Demons? Although they were demons who liked to suck human blood, this group of little creatures looked quite adorable.

"You guys are so cute!"

Lu Ran clenched his teeth and shook his head, which was buzzing with the sound of the demons.

Lu Ran's Evil Dog Spell - Demon Perception had reached the River Grade!

How sharp were his ears? In this situation, the sound wave attack of the batwing demon clan had given Lu Ran a solid lesson!

Batwing Demon Spell - Bat Sound! This invisible spell was highly tricky, and every attack caused 'true damage'.

What was true damage?

Against sound wave-based demon spells, the Water Armor of humans had no effect.

The bat sounds directly entered one's head, driving the prey insane. Then, the batwing demons would fly to the prey and suck their blood, relishing every moment.

Due to their small size, batwing demons couldn't suck much blood at once.

So, they would stay attached to people.

Once they sensed that the prey was regaining consciousness, they would use illusions or cast Bat Sound again.

Controlling the prey in this cycle.

Thus, the poor prey would become a 'living blood bag'.

If no one rescued them, the prey would live in a daze, keeping their blood fresh until one day they died from excessive blood loss.

At that moment, the batwing demons hanging on the exterior walls of the building stared at Lu Ran, chasing after him as they cast their spells.

Batwing Demon Spell: Bat Eye!

This spell induces sleep, a good remedy for insomnia.

So, the question is, will Lu Ran fall for it?

Of course not!

The Ghost General's Will Spell refuses to comply.

The Evil Cloud Will Spell of the Evil Gun Emperor's clan is even less willing!

At this moment, Lu Ran's mental defenses were at their peak, unafraid of any psychic techniques.

Not only was he unafraid, but Lu Ran also activated a pair of Divine Eyes, glaring back at them!

"Squeak~ Squeak!"

The batwing demons' eyes were a dark golden color, and their large eyes fixed on Lu Ran.

"Baa!" Lu Ran opened a pair of lifeless, dead sheep eyes, and with a swing, he sent the Night Silence Sword flying!

This "baa" had nothing to do with any technique.

It was a pure, instinctive cry.

In a place unseen by others, beneath his dark and thick horizontal pupils, a trace of seductive red flashed by.

Puppeteer Shadow Spell: Puppeteer Gaze!

When it comes to the Demon Puppeteer Shadow, the first thing that comes to mind is the terrifying Puppeteer Threads Spell! Once touched by the red threads, people would turn into puppets.

The second thing that comes to mind is probably the Puppeteer Gaze Spell.

When encountering the Puppeteer Shadow, the first thing to do is to avoid the red threads.

Secondly, don't look into their eyes!

These seductive and alluring creatures are cruel to the extreme.

Every part of their body is poisonous! If anyone comes into contact with even a tiny bit of it, the outcome would be worse than death.

But ever since Lu Ran activated the Puppeteer Shadow Demon Statue,

her poison,

was all transferred to Lu Ran's body!

The foolish batwing demons were still staring at Lu Ran's eyes!

One of the batwing demons had already fallen for the spell.

In the batwing demon's field of vision, the snowy night, the streets, and even the living blood bag it had chosen all vanished without a trace.

Its world turned red.

A deep crimson!

From all directions, countless red threads rushed in!

At the tip of these red threads were not soft strands but sharp red needles!

"Sss! Sss!"

"Sss"

In the spiritual world, the batwing demon flapped its wings and flew, trying to dodge.

But the infinite red threads pierced it from all directions without any blind spots, instantly piercing its body.

"Squeak! Squeak!!"

In the real world, the batwing demon let out a sharp screech, its voice filled with misery.

Its physical body had no wounds.

However, all the torment and pain it experienced in the spiritual world were reflected in its physical body.

"Squeee—"

The batwing demon endured the pain of being "pierced by countless needles," flapping its wings frantically as it flew away.

The fact that it could still fly meant that Lu Ran had shown mercy.

If he wanted to, he could have tormented the batwing demon to the point of mental collapse.

Just as the Puppeteer Shadow torments people,

Lu Ran could have wreaked havoc on the demons.

But at this moment, Lu Ran couldn't do that.

After all, there were still Moon Watchers on the street, and surveillance cameras were present.

Moreover, Lu Ran was still participating in the Pride Celestial show.

The only eye technique he could publicly display was the Divine Ram Eye Spell.

Divine Eye: Can magnify the target's inner fear.

The batwing demon flew crookedly and frantically, clearly indicating its fear.

Why was the batwing demon afraid? Firstly, it was inherently timid by nature, a typical demon trait.

Secondly, Lu Ran had swung out the Night Silence Sword.

When death is imminent, isn't it normal to feel afraid?

"Sss!"

The blade pierced its flesh!

The batwing demon flew erratically, its wings losing strength due to the intense pain, and it flew in a messy manner.

How could it escape the pursuit of the Night Silence Sword in such a pitiful state?

In the blink of an eye, the batwing demon was already skewered on the sword.

"Flap, flap, flap~"

The remaining seven batwing demons quickly took to the air.

"Whoosh!"

The Night Silence Sword sliced through the air, skewering a batwing demon and stabbing straight at the bats!

"Flap, flap, flap~"

The batwing demons squeaked and scattered, trying to dodge.

Did it miss?

No matter, this was enough to make the batwing demons feel threatened.

Or rather, this was enough to make the people of Great Xia believe that the batwing demons felt threatened and were afraid.

"Look at me!"

Lu Ran muttered, gazing at the night sky and scanning each batwing demon.

Wherever his gaze fell, the batwing demons shrieked miserably, flapping their wings in panic.

Were they affected by the Divine Hoof Spell, amplifying their inner fear?

No, they were affected by the Puppeteer Gaze Spell, terrified and mentally tormented to the brink of collapse.

Snowflakes fell gently.

Blood droplets splattered everywhere.

The Night Silence Sword moved swiftly, connecting the dots and skewering the defenseless demons, turning them into a string of corpses.

The Moon Watchers on the street watched as the Night Silence Sword killed the demons, returning obediently to Lu Ran's hand.

Their hearts were filled with awe!

First, they were in awe of the power of the divine weapon.

Second, they admired Lu Ran's solid foundation of knowledge, skillfully utilizing the demons' nature and the Divine Ram Eye Spell to attack their weaknesses with exceptional results! This was the true essence of a Celestial Pride!

Eight demons were annihilated in a single encounter, vanishing without a trace!

"Slap!"

Lu Ran gripped the hilt of the Night Silence Sword, looking at the "demon kebab" skewered on the blade.

He removed the Divine Energy Orb from his neck and placed it on the sword, absorbing the adorable batwing demons' remains until nothing was left.

Several sparkling small demon crystals fell into Lu Ran's palm one after another.

Lu Ran curled his lips.

Little thing,

you dared to stop me and even tried to suck my blood?

In my body,

flows the poison of my Silken Sister.
