Chapter 129: Heartbroken Yue Jianli!
Sheng Zhixia was the royal family"s precious stomach. The royal bloodline flowed in her body, and she was Emperor Sheng Ye’s most beloved princess.
It wouldn"t be an exaggeration to say that one person was inferior to ten thousand people.
Her n.o.ble bloodline and extraordinary talent made her deeply loved by the people of Dazheng.
Shouldn’t she be rained with flattery?
But just now, Li Ran had thrown her out of the room!
And she was here to thank him!
How could Sheng Zhixia suffer such treatment?
"Why is this person so rude!"
She stood up angrily. Just as she was about to rush in to argue with Li Ran, she suddenly thought of something and froze.
That"s right.
She couldn"t beat Li Ran.
Although Sheng Zhixia was also a genius and had already reached the Golden Elixir realm at such a young age, she could not be compared to Li Ran.
He was the first-ranked Heavenly Devil that crushed countless geniuses.
"What if I rush in and he hits me?" Sheng Zhixia seriously speculated.
With Li Ran"s unbridled personality, she was highly likely to be beaten up.
After all, he was the man who had pinned Lin Langyue to the ground…
"Very good," Sheng Zhixia nodded, "Then I"ll temporarily swallow this."
She chose to retreat wisely.
As she was about to turn around and leave, a voice came from beside her. "Princess Sheng, why are you here?"
Sheng Zhixia turned around and saw Lin Langyue walking over.
"It"s Fairy Lin. I came over to apologize to Master Li. After all, General w.a.n.g had offended him.“
Lin Langyue admired her calm personality.
She smiled and asked, "How did it turn out? Have you been forgiven?"
"Ah, this…"
Sheng Zhixia was a little embarra.s.sed, “Yes, he accepted my apology and sent me out enthusiastically."
Lin Langyue didn"t overthink and nodded. "That"s good."
Sheng Zhixia asked in confusion, “Fairy Lin, you"re also here to look for Sheng Zi Li?”
If I remember correctly, didn"t these two have a deep grudge?
Lin Langyue saw through her thoughts and said embarra.s.sedly, "No matter what, he saved my Tianshu Inst.i.tute’s disciples. So I should come over and thank him."
She had learned from her disciple that if Li Ran had not acted, they would have been torn to shreds by the demons.
Even though they had a bad relationship, it was still true that he had saved their lives.
Just as Lin Langyue was about the knock on the door…
Sheng Zhixia hurriedly stopped her. "Fairy Lin, you should wait. Master Li is taking a bath."
"Taking a bath?"
Lin Langyue asked curiously, "Didn"t you just go in?"
"Uh…"
Sheng Zhixia"s eyes turned. "When he sent me out just now, he said he was going to take a bath."
"Is that so?"
Lin Langyue felt that something was wrong.
At this moment, Qin Ruyan slowly walked upstairs. She was stunned when she saw them.
"What are you doing here?"
Lin Langyue replied calmly, "I"m here to see Li Ran."
"See him?" Qin Ruyan smiled. "Could Fairy Lin’s heart be moved? Didn"t you claim to be heartless?"
Lin Langyue frowned. "I"m just expressing my grat.i.tude. What nonsense are you spouting?"
"Then, knock on the door. What are you doing here?" Qin Ruyan asked.
Sheng Zhixia explained, "Master Li is taking a bath. Unfortunately, it’s not convenient to knock on his door right now."
"Taking a bath?" Qin Ruyan"s eyes lit up.
For some reason, the two girls felt that she was even more excited…
Qin Ruyan gently moved and gently slammed the door. "Sheng Zi Li, do you need this servant to help wipe your back?" she said coquettishly. “This servant"s technique is very professional~."
“???”
Lin Langyue and Sheng Zhixia looked at each other; they felt their cheeks burning.
She was indeed a devil. How shameless!

Inside the room.
Yue Jianli clutched her cheek and did not dare to look up for a long time.
Li Ran said with awkwardness, "You went in the tub before I could finish my sentence. You acted too quickly."
Yue Jianli was even more embarra.s.sed when she heard that. She replied with a low voice, "Aren’t you afraid of being seen?"
Just now, when she was in a hurry, she hid in the bathtub and saw Li Ran"s indescribable object…
It was too ugly and scary!
She was so fl.u.s.tered that she felt like she was about to jump out. She could not lift her entire body.
At this moment, Qin Ruyan"s charming voice came from outside the door.
Yue Jianli growled, "This witch! I…"
Just as she was about to stand up, her legs went limp, and she fell into Li Ran"s arms.
The two of them looked at each other, and they became quiet.
Yue Jianli noticed the change and stammered, "I-I didn"t do it on purpose…"
Li Ran"s throat moved, and he gritted his teeth. "I"ve already let you off once!”
"Huh?"
Yue Jianli was stunned. "What do you mean? Ah!"
Before they finished speaking, the two of them had already flown out of the bathtub. The water on their bodies evaporated in an instant, and they fell onto the huge bed.
Yue Jianli blushed, and her eyes were fl.u.s.tered. "What, what are you doing?"
Li Ran smiled. "Guess?"
Yue Jianli"s eyes rippled as she bit her lips and said in a trembling voice. "No, there are people outside…"
Li Ran waved his hand, then an invisible array spread out, enveloping the entire room.
All sounds were isolated now.
"Now, we can do whatever we want." He laughed mischievously.
Yue Jianli turned around with a red face. "You"re dead…"
Li Ran pinched her chin. "Do you prefer the bad me or not?"
"I do… slow down, slow down…"
Yue Jianli"s beautiful hair scattered disheveledly, her lips slightly parted, and her bright eyes that were as light as spring mountains were full of shyness.
Li Ran couldn"t help but feel a little dizzy when he saw that beautiful face.
—
In the room downstairs…
Sheng Zhixia"s face was flushed red. She covered her head with the blanket like an ostrich.
Li Ran and Chief Yue… "Oh my G.o.d!"
The artifact she gave to Li Ran was called the Ming Ru Mirror.
This treasure had many wonderful uses.
It was able to absorb the immortal qi that had dissipated and detect treasures. Another useful feature of it is to purify one’s thoughts and stabilize one"s mind.
The most important thing was to amplify their senses and detect the sounds and images around them.
She had been using this item all this time and had given it to Li Ran to thank him.
As long as the other party erased the mark on it, it would be fine.
However, Li Ran let the mark remain.
Sheng Zhixia couldn"t help but sense the mark. The sound and scene that came back from the artifact shocked her.
It completely exceeded her psychological endurance.
She didn"t want to see it but couldn"t help it…
Sheng Zhixia"s face was flushed, and her hair was disheveled. She looked out of the window in a daze.
"It"s been a whole day. Isn’t this guy tired…"
Her heart ached for Yue Jianli.
