Tonight in Rain Alley City, there was neither wind nor rain.

But the assault of the Evil Demons felt like a violent storm.

Lu Ran's team stood steadfast in the center of the square, repelling the attacks of Evil Demons from all directions.

The soldiers stationed around them went from initial concern to admiration, and finally to utter awe.

The five-person team each performed their duties, advancing and retreating as one.

Tian Tian commanded the center of the team, with Jiang, Chang, and Deng positioned on three sides, like points of an equilateral triangle.

Lu Ran was weaving around the exterior, supporting everywhere, slashing through the chaos.

"Ah~!"

Chang Ying let out a fierce shout, her great axe whirling through the air.

She suddenly stepped back with her axe and grabbed a bundle of signs with her left hand, shaking it frantically and murmuring:

"Heavens be quick, Earth be quick, Divine·Spiritual Sign show your might, output sign, Summoning Sign... just come out!"

"Whoosh!"

A sign shot up high into the air.

Chang Ying's face fell in disappointment, hope completely gone.

A worthless sign from the Eight Treasures!

The shabby wood sign immediately flew downwards, circling around Chang, causing her annoyance.

"Ugh, go away!"

Chang swatted at it with her hand, flinging the worthless sign a few meters away.

But the sign, like an annoying fly, circled back around and continued to harass her, even intentionally obstructing her vision and adding to the chaos.

"Pray now, don't let it disturb your focus!" Lu Ran's voice came from a distance.

The Dawn Blade arrived swiftly, obviously sent by Lu Ran to assist Chang.

"Yes!" Chang responded loudly, suppressing the traces of disgust and dissatisfaction in her heart, and praying to the Divine·Spiritual Sign.

Chang always listened carefully when it came to Lu Ran.

"Heh..." Lu Ran let out a deep sigh of relief.

With the Divine Technique·Pupil of the Dead World engaged, he watched as one Evil Demon soul after another was absorbed into his eyes.

The feeling was exhilarating~

"Ah ah ah!!"

Suddenly, an angry female voice echoed through the night sky, followed by a colossal figure plummeting down, landing heavily on the ground.

Lu Ran turned his head to look in surprise: "What the...?"

Wasn't that the "Chang Ying Pro"?

After fighting so many Evil Demon underlings for so long, it was expected that a mini-boss would appear.

The newcomer was around three meters tall, presenting an oppressive might.

She was dressed in armor made of broken stones and fine sand, leaving patches of her bronze skin exposed and displaying her impressive physique.

Her fierce red hair wildly fluttering, and within her blood-red eyes, a dense killing intent spread.

Evil Demon Clan·Barbaric Woman!

"Barbaric Woman!"

"Watch out for her sand blade!" A flurry of cries arose.

Among them, Lu Ran's voice: "Big Chang Ying is here!"

Chang: ???

If she's Big Chang Ying, then who am I?

Little Barbarian Girl?

At over one-nine-zero meters tall, Chang hardly ever got associated with the word "little".

But in front of the Barbaric Woman, Chang indeed felt small...

"I'm here!" Lu Ran shouted sharply, stepping in front of Deng Yutang.

"Be careful, Brother Lu," Deng Yutang said with a somber face, desperately manipulating his water armor.

"We just kill..." Lu Ran snatched the Silent Night Blade that was flying towards him, twirling it skillfully, "...and that's it."

Deng Yutang: "..."

What time is it to be fooling around with plastic bags?

Deng could not know that Lu Ran was preparing himself.

While talking, a small flicker of black flame had already ignited behind his cold horizontal pupils.

Black Lamp Evil Technique·Caged Fire (Illusion)!

"Heh." The Barbaric Woman let a slight smile play on her lips, boldly striding forward with her battle axe.

Her wild arrogance was chilling to witness.

A crisp "ding" sound rang out.

The Barbaric Woman swept her axe upwards, fiercely parrying the incoming Cold Night Sword.

Not far away, Jiang Ruyi's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.

The White Jade Stone slotted in her sword's hilt suddenly burst.

"Pfft!!"

Jade Talisman Divine Skill·Frost Talisman!

In an instant, endless frost and snow surged, covering the Barbaric Woman in a freezing coat.

Now, why didn't Jiang Ruyi use the Divine Technique·Electric Restriction Talisman?

Because the Barbaric Woman was immune to lightning damage and could not be controlled by it!

Jiang Ruyi was top of her class, her knowledge vast and solid.

She knew that the Evil Technique of the Barbaric Clan granted the Barbaric Women tremendous strength, drawn from the very earth itself.

This unique method of casting also gifted the Barbaric Woman many formidable attributes.

Immunity to lightning damage was one of them.

"Ha ha! Hahaha..." The Barbaric Woman laughed loudly, her contempt for the weakness of the Human Clan clear for all to hear.

As she stood there, shaking off the frost from her body, the laugh abruptly stopped.

Weren't there five little people before her? Why couldn't she see them anymore?

Where did they go?

The Barbaric Woman was utterly baffled!

She'd already been fantasizing about the taste of fresh blood and tender flesh; how could the savory delights before her just disappear?

Yes, they disappeared.

At least in the Barbaric Woman's world, every member of the Human Clan had vanished!

"Zi--"

Lu Ran's feet moved through the Immortal Fog, his eyes firmly fixed on her blood-red pupils.

The Barbaric Women of her clan were physically strong, their damage output explosive.

But the clan's weakness was also apparent: severely lacking in mental strength!

Back when Lu Ran was only in the Stream Realm, he could already affect a River Realm·Barbaric Woman within a short time.

Now, in the River Realm and using a River Grade Evil Technique!

"Heh." Lu Ran let out a cold snort.

Big Chang Ying...

You're in for a tough time against me.

"Ahhh!!" The Barbaric Woman suddenly swung her battle axe horizontally.

Within the illusionary world Lu Ran had created for her, a Divine Weapon seemed to attack from her right side.

Meanwhile, in the real world, the Dawn Blade appeared in the same position, thrusting towards the Barbaric Woman.

The only difference was, in reality, Lu Ran was pressing in close!

The Barbaric Woman was indeed powerful!

Even within an illusion, with nothing actually in front of her, she still sensed danger.

Relying on her keen battle instincts, she rapidly stepped back.

But it was all too late.

Someone might be called a little lamb, but he was definitely not a vegetarian!

"Zi--"

Lu Ran stomped heavily, his figure shooting up, slicing into the night sky.

No choice, being such a small member of the Human Clan, you can't reach the giant Evil Demon's head unless you jump...

In an instant, Lu Ran passed by the Barbaric Woman!

The Silent Night Blade at his side, glowing with a mysterious deep purple pattern, severed a gigantic head.

"Ah??"

"What the hell?!"

"What...is this?" All around, Moon Gazer teams at their posts witnessed the scene.

With just one confrontation, Lu Ran had slaughtered the Barbaric Woman?

You must understand, the overall strength of the Barbaric Woman Clan was three parts stronger than the Prison Sky Demon Clan!

And Lu Ran...

So fast!

Really, much too fast.

The blade was fast, but he was faster!

"Hmm." Observing this, Chang Ying involuntarily shrank her neck.

In the future, she would have to be even more obedient around Lu Ran.

He was so terrifying...

"Huff~"

Lu Ran landed steadily, his back to the battlefield, sliding backwards.

Easy?

How could it be?

You really think speed is all that matters?

This simple-looking strike encapsulated countless painful experiences and memories.

Just last October in the lunar calendar, Lu Ran had fought his way out during the Night of Ghosts, facing the Barbaric Woman.

Lu Ran knew the Barbaric Woman's combat habits and tendencies by heart.

He was also clear about the fatal weakness of their clan and used it to his advantage, leading to this seemingly effortless display.

No one could deny that the Barbaric Woman was more ferocious than the Prison Sky Demon.

But to have Lu Ran fight a Prison Sky Demon would indeed be challenging.

Because the six-handed Prison Sky Demon was somewhat of a counter to Lu Ran.

But Lu Ran's Illusion Technique·Caged Fire was a counter for the Barbaric Woman...

"Above! Brother Lu, above!" Deng Yutang's urgent shout echoed throughout the area.

Lu Ran was startled and looked up.

In the distant night sky, a figure in a large red robe appeared.

As Lu Ran was still sliding backward, his viewing angle continuously changing, he was aligned with the full moon above, circling the stunning red figure.

"Ding ding~"

A gentle breeze carried the sweet sound of a phoenix crown's bells.

Big Red Robe flying elegantly like a flowing red sea of waves.

Evil Demon Clan·Yan Zhi!

"Yan Zhi..." Lu Ran pursed his lips, gazing at that utterly gorgeous figure.

To be honest, apart from her pale face, there was nothing really to fault.

Poised and graceful, she watched from her lofty position, her eyes seemingly selecting her prey.

"Hmm?" When she saw a certain figure, Yan Zhi's eyes suddenly focused!

From that moment on, she couldn't take her eyes off Lu Ran.

"Gulp." Lu Ran's Adam's apple bobbed.

Just this month, he had gone to Yan Zhi Village for training.

Yan Zhi's look, he had seen too many times before.

No matter how many times he encountered it, Lu Ran found it hard to acclimatize.

First surprise, then joy.

Then an overt, extreme possessiveness.

As long as the battle was long enough, Lu Ran always sensed a hint of cruelty inadvertently revealed in her eyes.

A terrifying sadistic desire that sent shivers down his spine!

He could hardly imagine, if one day he actually ended up in the hands of this bride, what kind of excruciating torture awaited him!

Lu Ran also found it hard to understand why, if she wanted to possess him so much, she had such cruel eyes.

Wasn't this outright yandere?

"Hmm?" Lu Ran's gaze shifted slightly lower, his focus extending to the middle of a tall building where he caught sight of another figure in red.

This...?

Is it nearly midnight?

The frequency and intensity of invading Evil Demons are increasing?

But the Yan Zhi Clan is so rare, two appearing at once...

"Behind, Brother Lu!" Deng Yutang's face was astonished, his gaze sweeping past Lu Ran towards the Wu Lie Building.

Lu Ran finally steadied himself and looked back.

Upon seeing the Evil Demon clearly, Lu Ran's pupils shrank!

Another Yan Zhi stood right in front of the entrance to Wu Lie Building.

Her hands folded, placed at her waist, standing so demurely.

"Woo! Woo~~ Woo! Woo~~"

A deep alarm sounded abruptly, piercing through the thick night air, echoing across Rain Alley City.

The alternating long and short signals - Night of Ghosts!

"Sis, stop... stop it, I'm taking the college entrance exam..."

Lu Ran's scalp tingled, his face turning as white as the Yan Zhi Clan's.

His pallor now matched quite well with the Yan sisters.

"This is bad!" Jiang Ruyi's face suddenly changed color.

Among those present, only Lu and Jiang knew the true meaning of Yan Zhi Clan's Night of Ghosts!

While other Evil Demon clans killed on sight during Night of Ghosts, the Yan Zhi Clan was different!

As long as Lu Ran was there, no one else existed in their eyes!

Good news:

Countless women in this world deeply love Lu Ran.

Bad news:

Looking around, they're all frickin' paper people!
