"Oh right, almost forgot the main matter."

Yu Qingcang slapped his forehead.

Looking at Lu Ran, he said, "You probably know about the Storm Guild from the U.S.A."

Lu Ran nodded.

Liu Xinxin and the others also looked at Yu Qingcang.

Nanami felt a stir in her heart.

She definitely knew about the Storm Guild, the only guild in the world that cleared the level sixty team dungeon in the Black Dragon Mountain range!

She had repeatedly tried to purchase Black Dragon Equipment from the Storm Guild but was always rejected.

"Previously, after a couple of skirmishes at the Deathmatch Arena as well as the Southern Border, these U.S.A people are still not backing down. They sent people to infiltrate Longxia once more, and their goal is still to find you," Yu Qingcang said.

"Damn it, those U.S.A bastards are really shameless, daring to come again? Have you tracked where they're coming from?" Lei Tai cursed.

It's easy to understand Lei Tai's agitation.

After all,

guarding the borders is the duty of the Battle Banner National Defense Army.

But the Battle Banner National Defense Army is seriously understaffed, and Longxia's territory is vast, especially since the world became digitized, making it even larger!

Adding on prohibited areas and danger zones.

There are many places where the Battle Banner National Defense Army cannot set up defenses or stations.

It used to be okay.

After all, the transnational teleportation in Longxia is open, and nobody would be foolish enough to infiltrate from the borders, given the risks and lack of purpose.

But now.

The U.S.A have repeatedly sent people to infiltrate, which is practically disregarding the Battle Banner National Defense Army!

This time, they entered from the northwest region, Kunlun Death Valley, and leading them is Neil, the president of the Storm Guild, along with a group of high combat professionals, mainly from the Assassin Series and Strong Attack Magic Series, with a clear target to find you and concentrate their attack," Yu Qingcang said.

Liu Xinxin froze.

She asked in confusion, "How is the information so accurate? As far as I know, although Kunlun Death Valley is not a forbidden area, it is very dangerous, and the Battle Banner National Defense Army has not stationed troops there. How did they gather this information?"

Yu Qingcang shrugged.

He said, "To be honest, I don't know either. The information was anonymously sent to the Celestial Path Alliance."

Anonymous...

Liu Xinxin frowned.

She said, "Could there be some danger, a trap? We don't know if the information is accurate."

Yu Qingcang said, "I'm a bit suspicious too, but I'm not worried because, for Lu Ran, there's no such thing as a conspiracy trap in this world. I think since we have the information, we should let Lu Ran check it out. Anyway, he has nothing to do today, and if it's true, he can practice his skills, dealing another blow to the spirit of the U.S.A. If this round is successful, it will definitely be devastating for them."

"That's true, Lu Ran will be fine, and he can even fly," Ye Hongyi shrugged and said.

Nanami didn't speak.

She just listened quietly from the side.

She also knew Neil, the president of the Storm Guild, an absolute formidable opponent!

But that was in the past.

Now that Nanami has formed a pact with Yamata no Orochi, she doesn't take Neil seriously.

Let alone Lu Ran.

Neil is nothing!

The only issue now is that Neil has brought many high combat professionals. If they concentrate their attacks on Lu Ran, and Lu Ran doesn't have time to use the invincible technique he used against Yamata no Orochi, he could be killed!

She even thought, if Lu Ran were to die, she would be free from his control.

To this day, she still believed Lu Ran must have used some technique, equipment, or mysterious potion to become temporarily immune to damage and escaped from Yamata no Orochi's attacks unharmed.

"Just got back from the northwest, didn't expect to go again, but it doesn't matter, I'll go check it out," Lu Ran nodded and said.

"In that case, should we set off?" Yu Qingcang asked.

"No, I'll go alone. The presidents shouldn't follow. Xinxin just said the information came mysteriously; it could be a trap. While I'm fine, I'm worried about you all," Lu Ran shook his head and said.

"Lu Ran is right; we'll teleport with him to the northwest and wait in the nearby main city for updates," Liu Xinxin agreed and said.

Then.

Lu Ran suddenly looked at Nanami.

He said, "As for you, come with me."

Lu Ran was concerned for Liu Xinxin and the others but not for Nanami.

If Nanami dies, so be it.

Keep her around if she's alive; discard her if she's dead. For a woman from the little days, she's worthless, even if she's the first Yin Yang Master; she's still worthless!

Instead, Lu Ran worried that if Nanami wasn't beside him, she might stir up trouble behind his back.

Although he cautioned Yamata no Orochi, Yamata no Orochi isn't human, and sometimes when it comes to scheming, it might not outsmart Nanami.

Nanami was taken aback.

She felt a bit displeased, noticing how Lu Ran worried so much about Liu Xinxin and the others but willingly dragged her along.

Besides, they were alone, on a quiet journey in the northwest wilderness. If Lu Ran had any intentions...

Unfathomable.

Even at this moment, Nanami's thoughts veered in that direction.

But since Lu Ran had spoken, she couldn't resist, she could only nod.

Afterwards.

Everyone set off, teleporting to the main city closest to Death Valley in the northwest.

After leaving Liu Xinxin and the others, Lu Ran and Nanami set off for Death Valley based on the information the Celestial Path Alliance received.

According to the timeline given.

Neil and the others should not have left Death Valley yet.

Lu Ran was in no rush to find them inside, merely arriving at the valley's entrance with Nanami.

Standing atop the cliff, they looked down at the passageway through Death Valley, quietly waiting.

The climate here is dry, with fierce sunlight.

Lu Ran glanced at Nanami beside him and suddenly said, "Take it off."

What?

Nanami tensed up all over, looking at Lu Ran in surprise.

Instinctively, she covered her chest with her hands.

Indeed!

This bastard!

Earlier, because the presidents were around, he refrained from making a move. Now, alone in the wilderness, his sly intentions emerged!

She bit her lip softly, and tears of humiliation and grievance welled up, almost ready to fall.

But once again, she couldn't resist!

Thus.

With trembling hands, she bit her tongue and asked, "Can I lay my clothes on the ground? I'm afraid they'll get dirty, and you... be gentle..."

"Huh?" Lu Ran raised an eyebrow, muttering, "What nonsense, with the sun so bright here, aren't you hot? Wearing such a thick cloak, I understand you wear it to hide your identity while finding me, but things being as they are, do you still need to hide?"

Nanami paused.

Looking at Lu Ran in surprise.

She quickly realized she misunderstood.

Her fair face flushed deep red.

Lu Ran felt rather perplexed; how was this little days' woman so quirky? They say she's a Divine Son of Shintoism, but could she be a religious fraud?

Meanwhile, Nanami casually put away her cloak.

Lu Ran took a glance.

Would you believe it!

Believe it!

There's certainly flair!

Lu Ran, being a normal guy, couldn't help swallowing.

This time, he's really gained!

This Nanami, not only is she beautiful, but her figure is quite impressive!

And Nanami, after removing the cloak, felt the heat disperse and her spirit restored significantly.

She took a deep breath and gazed towards Death Valley.

Softly she spoke, "I underestimated you; I can't blame anyone else. Still, I'm curious about how strong you truly are."

Lu Ran briefly assessed her, then broke his gaze.

Scuffed his lips, calmly stating, "You'll find out soon."
