"Do you also like this move a lot?"
Lu Ran grasped the hilt of the Silent Night Blade tightly before his eyes, asking softly.
"Buzz!!"
Compared to last month, the tremors of the Silent Night Blade were now much more intense.
The buzzing blade even gave Lu Ran a bit of an unrealistic fantasy.
Could it...
Possibly?
Would the Silent Night become a Divine Weapon?
1 second, 2 seconds... 5 seconds.
The Silent Night Blade gradually subsided.
But Lu Ran was not disappointed; on the contrary, he was overjoyed.
Was the Silent Night waiting for an opportunity?
Maybe it really was.
Indeed, it wasn't like the Dawn Blade, which had followed his father for a long time and been nurtured for many moments.
However, Lu Ran had already taken it through too many trials and tribulations.
Every fifteenth night, every lengthy trial in the Demon Cave.
Every beheading of an enemy, and time and again, being clearly led by Lu Ran, on a defined path.
How can a martial artist, even if he danced with a sword or wielded a blade all his life, make any difference?
Without a direction for growth and suitable guidance from its master, a weapon would always just be a mundane object.
The Silent Night Blade was different!
It was in perfect harmony with its master, advancing boldly on the right path.
It also had been nourished by the fragments of the Divine Ruins bestowed by Divine·North Wind!
That was the Divine Ruins of the North Wind Blade Sect, appearing only once in a decade!
The nourishment it brought to a blade was considerable.
"You will succeed," Lu Ran extended two fingers, gently sliding them along the cold blade, "I will help you."
Lu Ran's actions and words, transmitted through the camera, reached thousands of households.
Even the fools could tell that here, with Lu Tianjiao, another Divine Weapon was about to be born!
"Am I seeing things, or did that blade actually tremble?"
"So young, with two Divine Weapons... Isn't that somewhat outrageous?"
"The Ghost General is dead, it's time for Ran to stand! On the fifteenth, all under heaven will be auspicious!"
"Bro, are you trying to stage a rebellion?"
Here in the rain, Lu Ran stood, gently stroking the blade.
In the distance behind him, the once battle-ravaged land quietly diminished, headless general corpses dissolving into mist.
Only the charred remains of a steed, whose flames on its corpse were quenched by the pitter-patter of the rain.
Sun Zhengfang and Wei Long exchanged a glance.
Their eyes betrayed a hint of shock.
The formidable Ghost General was invincible, challenging others in single combat.
Lu Ran responded to the challenge at the frontlines, first beheading the horse, then the general.
It was done as seamlessly as mercury pouring onto the ground!
Laymen might see nothing special, thinking that as Da Xia's genius, Lu Ran should have such a performance.
But the seasoned believers all knew just how terrifying the martial arts of the Ghost General were!
Yet in front of Lu Ran, this powerful Ghost General was almost pressured throughout the fight...
What did that imply?
The martial arts of the world could indeed only be surpassed by speed!
Those with discerning eyes could also perceive that Lu Ran's swiftness wasn't merely about chasing speed.
He seemed to have a new understanding of the rhythm of battle.
Lu Ran was growing!
Compared to the fifteenth of February, his style of fighting had already changed somewhat.
Such a visibly rapid pacing of growth left people speechless.
Especially Lu Ran's last move, "Flat Ground Thunder," sent chills down the spines of many a martial artist!
Asking themselves honestly, if they were in the Ghost General's position...
Could they have reacted in time?
Could they truly have survived under Lu Ran's blade?
"Have you had a new realization?" a female voice came from behind Lu Ran.
"Hm?" Lu Ran turned his head to look and saw the beautiful smile of the girl.
Such a scene made many viewers' hearts race.
Jiang Ruyi... She was a bit too close to everyone.
But then again, considering Jiang Ruyi was this close to Lu Ran, it inevitably triggered a howl within the live broadcast room.
"Go absorb the remains of the Black Fire Colt," Jiang Ruyi suggested.
"What should we name this move?" Lu Ran sheathed his sword with his right hand and tossed up the Dawn Blade with his left. The Dawn Blade spun in the air and sheathed itself automatically.
Such a carefree scene.
Jiang Ruyi wasn't adept at close combat, but she had been by Lu Ran's side often and frequently received his special training, naturally having excellent eyesight.
She knew clearly that what Lu Ran referred to was the last scene, the fatal strike he had dealt to the Ghost General.
The question was, could that be considered a blade technique?
Jiang Ruyi felt that it seemed like an exploitation of Lu Ran's movement technique?
In thought, the two returned to the battlefield.
Lu Ran took off the Divine Power Pearl from around his neck, crouched next to the charred corpse of the horse, and quickly absorbed the energy.
Alas, only the horse had left bones behind.
The imposing Ghost General had already fragmented into wisps of blue smoke, dissipating between heaven and earth.
It had to be said that the Ghost General's Evil Techniques truly suited Lu Ran.
Earlier this month, after returning home from training, he had consulted with Lord Immortal Goat, feeling that he lacked two types of techniques:
One was Purification Techniques, and the other was Spirit Defense Techniques.
The Ghost General's clan happened to possess the Evil Technique·Ghost General's Will!
This technique could make up for Lu Ran's weakness, freeing him from being troubled by spiritual techniques.
As for the other Evil Techniques of the Ghost General's clan, they all seemed quite decent.
For example, that ghostly flag ridden by cold winds could allow Lu Ran to create a one-on-one battlefield.
And then there was the technique to summon the "Ghost General Soul" onto oneself, that could massively boost one's bodily attributes.
It was just unknown whether this technique could stack with the effects of Soul Splitting Power, Evil Sensitivity, and so on.
If they could indeed stack...
That would be quite something!
Moreover, the Ghost General's Evil Technique·Ghost General's Might matched Lu Ran exceptionally well!
This technique was a Battle Roar that could instill fear in the hearts of others.
And Lu Ran's Divine Technique·Immortal Pupil could amplify the fear in an enemy's heart...
Wasn't this a perfect match?
In future encounters with any enemy, Lu Ran need not put up any strong front or terrify the enemy to submission.
The moment they met, Lu Ran would be able to unleash a Battle Roar.
As long as the enemy fell for it, Lu Ran's Divine Technique·Immortal Pupil could come into play, continuously deepening the fear in the enemy's heart!
Until the enemy's spirit collapsed and they begged for mercy on their knees.
"Not bad at all, truly not bad..."
The more he thought about it, the more tempted Lu Ran became.
Ghost General's Might was like a cannonball that blasted a crack in a dam.
While the Immortal Pupil was the ceaseless, surging floodwater that followed!
With such an excellent combo tech, would it gain the approval of Lord Immortal Goat?
Would it allow him to venture to another world sooner?
There were diverse types of Evil Demons, but those with Spirit Defense Techniques were truly few.
In this way, the Ghost General's clan really suited Lu Ran.
"Hiss..."
Suddenly, a hoarse roar came from not too far away.
Lu Ran was jolted from his thoughts, looking up to see an ugly Evil Demon·Lian-Yan standing in the distant street.
That bamboo hat and straw raincoat actually matched quite well with the rainy night, creating a poetic scene.
But the green face beneath the bamboo hat, and the sharp, long fangs protruding from its mouth, ruined this beauty.
"Go," Jiang Ruyi commanded.
From the wide sleeves of her raincoat, a long sword shot out, stabbing straight at the distant Evil Demon.
"Accompany her," Lu Ran thought.
The Dawn Blade unsheathed from behind and thrust straight towards the Evil Demon.
Jiang Ruyi looked down at Lu Ran, asking, "What are you thinking about so intently?"
"I was thinking about the Evil Techniques of the Ghost General's clan," Lu Ran replied truthfully, with the Black Fire Colt's corpse already fully absorbed in front.
He rose to head towards the head of the horse, asking, "Have you thought of a name for that move?"
"You came up with it, you name it," Jiang Ruyi looked towards the battlefield, her right hand naturally falling from her sleeve, fingertips trembling slightly.
No longer just managing the Silent Night Sword, she was manipulating it to slay the enemy.
However, Lu Ran said, "Let's name it together.
Just throw something out there, it could inspire me."
On the surface, Jiang Ruyi was unmoved, but inside, Lu Ran's words of "Let's name it together" stirred her emotions.
She felt a sense of honor, and a little bit of joy.
After pondering for a moment, Jiang Ruyi quietly suggested, "Continuing the theme of the last name, including the word 'moon' would be nice."
Lu Ran nodded thoughtfully, "Good idea."
"Hiss!!"
From afar, the Lian-Yan let out a piercing scream, its body petrifying.
Jiang Ruyi's fingertip delicately hooked, and the Silent Night Sword no longer stabbed but hovered over the Lian-Yan's head.
Accordingly, the Dawn Blade too stopped slashing, instead resting its tip on the Lian-Yan's heart.
A pair of Divine Weapons, poised and ready!
Waiting for the Evil Demon's petrified body to return to normal.
From the perspective of the Evil Demon... it was truly a despairing sight...
The Evil Demon·Lian-Yan's highly resistant petrified body couldn't hold out for very long.
As the Evil Technique·Stone Shattering dissipated, Jiang Ruyi's jade finger lightly tapped.
The Silent Night Sword stabbed from above, piercing through the bamboo hat and into the Lian-Yan's fontanel.
The Dawn Blade aggressively penetrated, stabbing through the straw coat and into the Lian-Yan's heart.
"Moon Shock," Lu Ran murmured, looking up at Jiang Ruyi, "What about 'Moon Shock'?"
"Shock that astonishes the world?" Jiang Ruyi lowered her gaze towards Lu Ran, slightly lifting her eyebrows.
"Yep, yep!" Lu Ran nodded repeatedly.
In his heart, he thought about the saying "Flat Ground Thunder."
Taking out a 'shock' from it and combining it with the word 'moon,' would it not be wonderful?
Ran Sect Blade Technique Second Form·Moon Shock!
"Hmm, it sounds nice," Jiang Ruyi raised her hand, withdrawing the Silent Night Sword into her sleeve, and gestured towards the site of Lian-Yan's death, "Go replenish your Divine Power."
"Alright," Lu Ran hurried over.
He didn't realize how the scene that had just unfolded looked so brilliant in the eyes of the world.
Lu Jiang chatted idly while slaughtering the Evil Demon·Lian-Yan.
Four characters: Effortlessly!
"It indeed sounds good! The lady's voice is really pleasant~"
"Used to seeing Ran Mei fighting desperately, now pulling off this stunt, I'm thrown off."
"These two are both Masters of Divine Weapons, do you think it's all just play? Any evil demon weaker in power doesn't even deserve to be on camera."
"Please tell me, what kind of dream do I need to have, to get a girlfriend like her?"
"Ruyi, Ruyi, follow my wishes... quickly leave Lu Ran!"
Lu Ran was unaware that Jiang Ruyi's gentle whispers had once again crushed the dreams of numerous young men and women.
At this moment, he had just absorbed energy into the Divine Power Pearl and, taking advantage of the situation, raised his Magic Artifact, absorbing the Lian-Yan's soul into the Rebirth Money.
Having done all this, Lu Ran looked back and called out:
"Let's go, Captain Sun."
"Let's go," Sun Zhengfang nodded in agreement, gesturing for the two to move forward.
The drizzle continued to fall.
The remaining traces of blood on the ground were gradually washed away.
As if nothing had happened here.
Only the shattered asphalt road told the world of the fierce battle that had taken place here.
"Whew..." Sun Zhengfang let out a deep sigh, full of emotion.
He met Lu Ran once a month.
And every time they met, Lu Ran's strength soared like a rocket.
He dared not imagine how much Lu Ran would grow by the next month... Oh right.
Next month on the fifteenth, Lu Ran was supposed to take the college entrance exams.
