253: Chapter 253 Su Xiyue's Little Secret: A Mysterious Gift Package Delivered to Her Doorstep?!

The opening of the Spirit Sword Mountain in Jianxiao City spread throughout the White Jade Capital with the speed and force of a violent storm.

Almost all young Prodigies who practiced the sword Dao were drawn by its fame and hurried to Jianxiao City.

Kunlun City, Immortal Mountain, within the bedchamber of Jiang Yunxian's residence.

[Ding! Detected that the Host has successfully completed a Heavenly Mandate Mission!]

[Reward: 20,000 destiny points, one pair of black fishnet stockings (indestructible version, self-repairing upon damage)]

The System's notification sounded in Lin Ran's ears.

"Rebellious Disciple, your Senior Martial Uncle sent a voice transmission. She said the Spirit Sword Mountain has opened and told us to pack up and head to Jianxiao City."

Su Xiyue nudged Lin Ran beside her, waking him up.

Lin Ran lazily yawned, took out the black fishnet stockings he had just obtained, and handed them to Su Xiyue.

"Revered Master, you keep this yourself. You can use it next time we... impart the scriptures and teach the profession."

Su Xiyue, her face flushed with embarrassment, accepted the black fishnet stockings and said:

"This thing... it's supposed to be worn on the feet, right?"

"That pair of white... white stockings on Sister Meng Qing's feet, were they also given by you, this Rebellious Disciple?"

During these days of simultaneously feeding Lin Ran 'covered rice' with Meng Qing, she had naturally seen the white stockings Meng Qing personally wore.

She could still recall how, at that time, when this Rebellious Disciple of hers saw Meng Qing wearing the white stockings, his speed and critical strikes had noticeably increased quite a bit.

She had been envious then, thinking how great it would be if she had such a pair of 'attribute boosters'.

But she never expected that Lin Ran, as if he could hear her innermost thoughts, gave her a pair of 'attribute boosters' immediately after their Dao discussion ended.

She absolutely had to take good care of them.

In the future, when Lin Ran once again 'empties his sack to teach her', she must wear these 'attribute boosters' and make Lin Ran taste her prowess!!

"Of course, I gave them to her. Apart from your Disciple, there's no second person in the world who could possess such things."

"Master Baby, this item is impervious to water and fire, invulnerable to blades and spears, and if it gets torn, it automatically repairs itself. You can use it for a lifetime～"

Lin Ran pulled Su Xiyue into his embrace, a mischievous grin spreading across his face.

Su Xiyue's face turned even redder. She hurriedly broke free from Lin Ran's embrace and put on her clothes:

"Alright, Rebellious Disciple, get up quickly. Let's go find your Senior Martial Uncle first."

After a short while, the three of them had packed everything and opened the bedroom door.

"Gulu～"

The Long Ling popped out from the side, excitedly coiling around Lin Ran's waist.

Lin Ran smiled and patted her head. The group immediately headed towards the mountain gate of the Kunlun Sect.

At the mountain gate, Jiang Yunxian had already been waiting for some time. Beside her stood quite a few Inner Sect Disciples of the Kunlun Sect.

Among them, a young man carrying a long sword on his back, with hair like a waterfall and an extraordinary aura, stood proudly amidst the Inner Sect Disciples, like a crane standing among chickens.

He was precisely the Kunlun Sect's True Disciple — True Disciple Jian Wuhen, a young Prodigy who primarily cultivated the sword Dao!

"Sect Leader, who else are we waiting for?"

Jian Wuhen, somewhat unable to contain himself, asked in a deep voice.

Their group had been waiting here for quite some time, yet Jiang Yunxian hadn't said whom they were waiting for.

"If you are dissatisfied, you may also proceed to Jianxiao City alone. No one is stopping you."

Jiang Yunxian gave Jian Wuhen a cool glance and said.

"This Disciple wouldn't dare. This Disciple is merely curious and wanted to ask the Sect Leader."

Jian Wuhen's expression changed. He quickly lowered his head respectfully, cupping his fists.

"Some matters, if they are not for you to ask about, then there is no need for you to speak."

Jiang Yunxian said coldly.

Jian Wuhen's expression stiffened, looking very awkward.

Just at that moment, several streaks of light sped over from the distance—it was Lin Ran and the others!

"Little Linzi, you finally know to come? Do you know how long you've made this Senior Martial Uncle wait?"

Seeing Lin Ran arrive, Jiang Yunxian's gaze immediately turned resentful, like a little wronged wife. Her fair arms gently rested on Lin Ran's shoulders.

Facing the 'turbulence' before his eyes, Lin Ran looked somewhat awkward and said:

"Senior Martial Uncle, in broad daylight, under the clear sky, please don't tease your martial nephew like this, otherwise..."

[Ding! Detected that the Host has triggered a new Heavenly Mandate Mission. Please make the following choice!]

[Option One: Hey! This Son of Heavenly Mandate is a proper gentleman, how can I allow you to keep teasing me?!]

[Mission: Righteously and sternly reprimand Jiang Yunxian. Tell her that if she dares do it again, she'll regret it!]

[Reward: 25,000 destiny points, one 'Steel Straight Man' title!]

[Option Two: Everyone, you all saw it! She's the one who delivered herself to my door. It has nothing to do with This Son of Heavenly Mandate, alright!]

[Mission: Conquer Jiang Yunxian!]

[Reward: One mysterious gift pack (so big it will make the Host tremble uncontrollably～)]

"I choose two!"

Lin Ran thought to himself.

A mysterious gift pack delivering itself to his door? He'd be a fool not to take it!

"Otherwise what? Could it be... Little Linzi, you plan to cut ties with your Senior Martial Uncle?"

Jiang Yunxian immediately put on a pitiful, aggrieved expression, as if she were about to shed 'little pearls' the next second, truly enough to move even the heavens to pity.

Lin Ran gave a devilish smile, turned his hand, and pulled Jiang Yunxian into his embrace:

"Otherwise, it would be like this right now—a reversal of roles."

"How could your martial nephew possibly sever ties with a Senior Martial Uncle of such peerless beauty in this world?"

"To speak from the heart, your martial nephew, ah, actually really wants to have a 'Guan Bao friendship' with Senior Martial Uncle, to understand Senior Martial Uncle more deeply, more profoundly～"

Jiang Yunxian was stunned. Su Xiyue was stunned. Jian Wuhen and the other Kunlun Sect Disciples were also stunned.

Only Meng Qing nodded proudly, her expression seeming to say, 'See? This is my husband!'

After all, Lin Ran had just arrived in the White Jade Capital and had only met Jiang Yunxian twice. Yet, unexpectedly, he was already getting involved with the leader of a major sect.

In all the world, who else could accomplish this!?

Indeed, Lin Ran remained silent until he spoke, and then his words shook everyone!

When he acted, he went for the big leagues!!!

Jiang Yunxian was stunned for a moment. Then, a bewitching, vivid red suddenly bloomed on her fair cheeks. The aura emanating from Lin Ran made her feel utterly captivated at this moment, as if she truly wanted to engage in a satisfyingly intense 'Guan Bao friendship' with him.

After all, it was the effect of max-level charm and the quasi-Innate Pure Yang Immortal Body at work. If not for Jiang Yunxian's firm Dao Heart and profound cultivation, she might have truly succumbed right then.

She steadied her mind, subtly broke free from Lin Ran's embrace, and gently pinched his cheek with her jade-like hand.

She gave a gentle smile and said, "Little Linzi, I never imagined you had such thoughts about your Senior Martial Uncle. It truly shows one cannot judge a person by their appearance."

"As for you wanting to understand your Senior Martial Uncle more deeply, more profoundly... if there's a chance, Senior Martial Uncle will let you understand."

"At that time, Senior Martial Uncle will have to see if you truly have the capability, or if you're just a silver spear with a wax head—all talk and no action."

Having said that, Jiang Yunxian covered her mouth with a light laugh and threw a seductive glance at Lin Ran.
