"Bats are so cute, why kill the bats [doge.jpg]"

"Divine Weapons are so cool! No matter how many times I see them, I'm always green with envy. They can move on their own..."

"If I had a Divine Weapon, I'd carry it with me every day, floating by my side to show off!"

"What's with Ran the Dog, some kind of Ran Aotian? Just one glance at the sky, and the gold-winged bats all pee themselves in fright?"

"I so wish Ran the Gem would 'wall-pin' me! Glare at me, and I'd be shivering in fear, cowering in a corner, ah ah ah! Ran the Gem, don't kill the Evil Demons, kill me~~~"

"Why has Ran Shen stopped? Keep going! Aren't we splitting up?"

From a first-person perspective, Lu Ran had already used the Divine Power Pearl to absorb several gold-winged bats to exhaustion.

After that, he seemed to enter a zen-like state!

Just standing there, holding the Divine Power Pearl and a Demon Crystal in hand, his body frozen?

One couldn't deny that Lu Ran's recent combat decisions were precise and clever, which undoubtedly was a plus.

But are you zoning out on "Heavenly Pride"?

You had just scored some points, and now are you not deducting them all?

Fans were urgently pressing for more, endlessly urging.

Fortunately, Lu Ran didn't space out for too long and slowly raised the Silent Night Blade.

People then realized that the Divine Weapon was vibrating?

Vibrating?!

Suddenly, many began to guess what that meant.

All Divine Weapons in the world could vibrate at any time, which wasn't particularly remarkable.

But combining Lu Ran's reaction...

Was this a precursor to activating the Divine Weapon Domain?

For a moment, countless eyes were glued to the screen, full of anticipation!

Before, people had the fortune to witness Lu Ran activate the Divine Weapon Domain of the Dawn Blade and forcibly repelled the Night of Ghosts!

It was a shock to the world!

Now, was the Silent Night Blade about to follow in its predecessor's footsteps and achieve greatness?

"Silent Night?" Lu Ran frowned slightly and spoke softly.

The vibration of the Silent Night Blade lessened.

Lu Ran and countless viewers felt their hearts sink.

Lu Ran absorbed all the energy from the small Demon Crystal in his hand and casually let the Silent Night Blade float vertically in front of him.

While putting on the Divine Power Pearl necklace, he communicated in his mind, "What were you just thinking?"

Silent Night: "Silent Night."

Lu Ran: "..."

The Silent Night Blade was as frosty as ever.

Even to its master's question, its response was brief.

In front of the camera, of course, Lu Ran wouldn't ask out loud but instead communicated in his mind:

"Care to elaborate?"

"The Evil Demon stopped you, and it's very noisy."

Lu Ran felt a bit helpless: "So what?"

Silent Night Blade: "I want a silent night, I want the Evil Demon to be mute."

Lu Ran: !!!

What did that mean?

Silence?

A storm of thoughts churned in Lu Ran's mind, and he hurriedly followed up: "You want to forbid the Evil Demon from speaking?

Or to prevent the Evil Demon from casting spells?

Which path did you react violently to just now?"

But the Silent Night Blade replied, "Further contemplation is needed."

"Gulp." Lu Ran swallowed and his face brightened with ecstasy!

However, the next moment, a bucket of cold water was poured over his head, drenching him from head to toe: "I was interrupted."

Lu Ran was stunned for a moment: "Interrupted?"

Silent Night Blade: "Just as you experienced, I was intercepted."

After a brief silence, Lu Ran arrived at an answer:

The Divine Weapon Domains had collided!

Lu Ran pondered for a moment and asked in his heart: "Who was it? Where are they?"

If the domains of two Divine Weapons collided, there would be a faint connection between them.

Silent Night Blade: "Unclear."

Unclear?

Lu Ran thought for a moment and then nodded lightly: "You just had an idea, you just found the direction that resonates with you.

Since there hasn't been much time, the exploration is still superficial.

For now, stay focused on this path, and delve into it deeply.

After 'Heavenly Pride' ends, we can discuss it in detail."

Silent Night Blade: "Hmm."

Lu Ran weighed the Silent Night Blade in his hand, and his restless heart settled down.

The Silent Night Blade had finally found the right path, but just as a hint of it emerged, it was blocked.

It seemed,

The opponent was very domineering, weren't they?

As everyone knows, regarding the competition for Divine Weapon Domains, the challenger is at an absolute disadvantage.

After all, the opponent possesses a Divine Weapon Domain, but you do not.

Besides, if the Divine Weapon Domain of the Silent Night Blade truly was the "Silence Technique"...

How would one even challenge that?

Even if you have myriad Evil Techniques, you can't use any!

In this world, Divine Techniques and Evil Techniques at best disturb the target's internal energy and interfere with casting spells.

They can't achieve "forbidden spellcasting."

Now the question arose:

Can the Purification Skill purify silence?

Which one has higher priority?

While pondering this, Lu Ran had already activated Immortal Hoof and was slaughtering throughout the city district.

He seemed to have entered into a mysterious state.

Just as one doesn't have to think about walking when walking.

Instinct would take over your body and actions.

Although Lu Ran was preoccupied, he was quick and decisive when it came to slaying Evil Demons.

Whether it was a subconscious action or muscle memory aiding him.

In any case,

When Lu Ran snapped back to reality, he had been rampaging and killing throughout the city for a good while!

What surprised Lu Ran even more was that he had left Central Plaza and headed towards the West River district.

And he was standing on the connecting path between East River and West River — at Wu Lie Bridge Head!

"Heh heh."

Lu Ran suddenly laughed.

As it proved, he belonged to West River; instinct had brought him back here.

An old saying in Da Xia goes,

Since you're already here...

Unknown to Lu Ran at the time, the live-streaming room had gone wild:

"So fast, really too fast, I even feel sorry for Sister Jiang!"

"Dong Ting? North Wind? Hah, they're nothing compared to my little lamb's gentle kick~"

"I can't see clearly, nor can I understand! But I can hear the continuous wails of the Evil Demons, exhilarating!!"

"Ah, I've thrown up three times already, don't stop, keep going! I can still puke..."

"Hiss—"

The sound of Immortal Fog rolling in began again.

On the camera, the streets on both sides of the road swiftly receded, a flurry of snow dancing.

Evil Demons were being connected into lines.

The lingering Immortal Fog traced Lu Ran's route.

"Me-eh~~~"

Suddenly, a sheep's bleat echoed outside Hexi Park.

On the narrow and worn bridge above, a patrol team halted in their tracks.

Lowest Grade Fog Grade·Sound of Despair didn't cause much trouble for the Human Clan soldiers.

But it was enough to provoke the Evil Demons' cruel nature.

On the bridge, Sun Zhengfang's eyes lit up: "Lu Ran?"

At the last moment, a ferocious human-faced creature began to petrify its body and stubbornly resist.

In Lu Ran's left hand, the Eight Desolate Annihilation lay across the human-faced creature's neck, pushing against the Evil Demon as they moved together.

Dense lines of Immortal Fog snaked past beneath the bridge.

Sun Zhengfang was thrilled!

He hurried back, running to the other side of the bridge railing.

Looking down just in time, he saw the human-faced creature's petrified body shatter.

The young man in black swiftly decapitated the Evil Demon's brutish head with his Tang sword.

Remarkably, the young man came to a halt.

He turned around, looked up, and waved to the patrol team on the bridge.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

On this terrifying night of the fifteenth, old Captain Sun actually burst into laughter.

The steady Sun Zhengfang also showed such exuberance as he pointed at Lu Ran, looking to his new teammate:

"This is my soldier, Da Xia's genius, my soldier ha ha ha!"

Always expressionless Wei Long also showed a smile.

The two new Moon Gazer recruits to the patrol team watched with fiery eyes as Lu Ran step by step retreated and turned to leave...

"Hiss—"

Immortal Fog and frost filled the air, and that legendary figure disappeared at the end of the long street.

Compared to the Central Square of Rain Alley City, the people of Da Xia naturally had more affection for West River district.

After all, when Lu Ran first appeared on "Heavenly Pride," it was in West River district where he began patrolling round after round and rose to prominence.

"That's Captain Sun, right?"

"It is him, Ran Shen's old captain before he became a Jiang Realm Great Power, and that's Spicy Strip Bro next to him!"

"That's Hexi Park, that bridge, I remember this place!"

"The old captain is grinning from ear to ear, haha, so proud~"

"The curtain call, huh? Is it really time for the curtain call..."

"I don't want to let go, it's like saying a final goodbye, parting forever [crying.jpg]"

"It's stopped? That's the auto repair shop, by the banks of Wu Lie River, right?"

Ever since Lu Ran entered West River, the atmosphere in the live stream gradually changed.

Everyone knew this was the last edition of "Heavenly Pride."

Upon close calculation, Lu Ran had accompanied everyone for a year.

Even Lu Ran himself found it hard to understand the emotions the world had poured into him.

Perhaps, Lu Ran had a faint sense of empathy.

When he was vulnerable, when he spent the fifteenth of each month in fear in a shelter, he also relied on comic dialogues and storytelling to fall asleep.

The difference was,

Lu Ran was a real person, cutting down Evil Demons stroke by stroke.

He was a spiritual support for countless Da Xia citizens.

He was even the source of courage and spiritual pillar for many to continue living.

And such a Lu Ran was about to leave...

"Bellow!!"

A pitiful scream echoed through the live stream.

A towering Soul-splitting Demon was slit open and gutted, its vicious bull-head split apart.

In front of the residential area's gate, Lu Ran slowed down and looked aside.

"Yo, kiddo!"

In the snow, a man with a bare chest and a red bandana tied around his head grinned at Lu Ran.

Lu Ran looked him up and down, his muffled voice coming through the mask:

"Not bad this time, you've improved."

Chen Jing immediately took offense: "What do you mean?

I have to be on death's door every time you see me, covered in injuries, is that it?"

Lu Ran stood at the entrance of the residential area, glanced in the direction of his home: "I'm off, uncle."

"Hiss—"

Snowflakes danced as the figure receded.

Faintly came a phrase: "Don't die."

Chen Jing laughed heartily as he watched the carefree departing figure: "Hahaha, Roger that!"

The boisterous laughter of the rugged man rang out through the night sky, but it couldn't ease the growing sadness in people's hearts.

"I recognize this place, this is Rain Alley Home!"

"Is Lu Ran running his old patrol route? It's all memories..."

"I've never been to Rain Alley, but it feels like returning home."

"Slow down, young man, take it slow; the road to growing up isn't easy..."

"Don't listen to them, charge! Lu Ran!! Charge!!"

"That snowy night, the young man raced through the streets of the modest Rain Alley City, heading for the summit of Da Xia!"
