Shen Kuang laughed and said, "Of course I am Shen Kuang. If this identity is fake, how can I hide it from someone as cunning as Su Yishui? He wants to use me? Why am I not using him?"

Ran Ran stared at him and asked, "What is your connection with the Brahma Sect?"

Shen Kuang gave her a thumbs up and said, "You can even see this?"

Ran Ran was actually just trying to deceive someone, but she didn't expect Shen Kuang to admit it so readily.

She had asked Jiu Laoxian before, and the evil methods used to abduct the people he had taken away from Cuiwei Mountain looked like those of the long-extinct Brahma religion.

The Brahma Cult would appear from time to time afterwards, and the origin of this evil cult was inextricably linked to the Human Demon King.

And the fact that Shen Kuang was so determined to seize the skull made people suspect his connection with the Brahma religion.

This place is far away from Xishan and has long been out of the village. It is remote and there are no passers-by. Shen Kuang thinks that since he has been discovered by Ran Ran, there is no need to hide it, so he simply tore his face and caught him.

Even if Xue Ranran didn't speak, Shen Kuang was planning to move forward and then take action. Now that she has discovered his plan, he will just proceed according to the original plan.

"I am indeed Shen Kuang, but I am also the guardian elder of the Brahma Sect. Xue Ranran... No, I should call you Mu Qingge. The revival of the Brahma Sect also needs your contribution. What do you think? Since Xishan doesn't want you, how about you come with me?"

His family fell into poverty and he was suppressed by Wei Yan and disappeared from the light of day. If he had not joined the Brahma Sect by chance, he would have been hunted down by the disciples sent by Wei Yan.

Now, only by reviving the Brahma Sect can he return to Chiyan Mountain and kill Wei Yan to avenge himself.

Xue Ranran laughed: "I didn't expect that there are so many talented people in Xishan, and there is even an elder of the lost magic sect. You are so arrogant and want me to go with you, but I don't know what you want me to do with?"

Shen Kuang waved his hand and drew a strange purple rune, and said with a wicked smile: "In the revival of the Brahma Sect, you and Su Yishui are both indispensable. It seems that you will not submit obediently. In this case, don't blame me, your junior brother, for being offensive!"

The suppressing moves he used were not taught by Xishan at all. When the talisman was used to suppress it, it brought with it an evil aura of blood and sting, which made people shudder.

When Ran Ran used her luck to mobilize her dagger to break his talisman, she found that the purple aura seemed to be unbreakable and attacked her like an impenetrable net.

When she was enveloped by it, her spiritual power seemed to be suppressed. She lost control of all the short swords and fell to the ground.

Shen Kuang also saw that Ran Ran had no spare energy to guard against him, and couldn't help but smile even more. He had always wanted to control Su Yishui first, and then deal with Xue Ranran.

But they didn't expect that the two of them would be awkward all the way. After returning to Xishan, Su Yishui actually expelled Xue Ranran and drove him down the mountain.

It seemed that he could not tolerate his former mentor for even a moment.

Shen Kuang originally didn't want to act rashly until he saw that the reincarnation tree in Xue Ranran's courtyard had been uprooted, and it seemed that the two of them had no room for maneuver.

Such a godsend opportunity must be seized.

Now, Shen Kuang didn't want to waste any more time, so he used the long-lost God-killing Rune. With Xue Ranran's current skills, she couldn't resist this ancient evil array rune. As long as she was suppressed, she would lose consciousness in a short while and surrender limply...

Shen Kuo felt that he could carry the person away immediately.

Soon Ranran fell to the ground. At this moment, he suddenly felt a cold wind coming from behind. He had no time to turn around and quickly dodged to the side.

Even though he reacted quickly, his spiritual shield was still broken.

A sharp sword had already pierced his back. Shen Kuang could only barely avoid the vital part of his heart and had no choice but to take the blow.

When he turned around, he saw the person controlling the sword rushing towards him quickly.

The man with a murderous look on his face was none other than Su Yishui, who was supposed to be in seclusion in Xishan.

Shen Kuang's skill was much higher than what he showed in Xishan. If he hadn't been hit by this sword, Su Yishui, whose spiritual power had been constantly draining away in recent days, might not have been his opponent.

At this moment, Ran Ran, who had fallen to the ground, suddenly jumped up. It was obvious that her weakness just now was used to confuse him.

Is there anything more paralyzing than the sense of accomplishment of having just defeated your prey?

It was a pity that these two people cooperated with each other so well that Shen Kuang was careless for a moment and let Su Yishui take the initiative. By the time he reacted, Su Yishui's hand was on the back of his heart and began to absorb his spiritual power wantonly.

Su Yishui's dantian was feeling very empty right now. How could a hungry person easily give in when encountering such delicious food?

Shen Kuang was shocked. At this rate, he would soon be sucked dry by Su Yishui.

So he no longer cared about Xue Ranran, but drew out his sword and turned around to stab Su Yishui.

Unfortunately, Su Yishui was well prepared. He stretched out his hand and pasted the talisman drawn by Jiu Laoxian on Shen Kuang's forehead.

Although Jiu Laoxian's people were not very good, his talisman was still very effective. Shen Kuang was not only stabbed by the sword, but also immobilized by the talisman. He had no other tricks for a while.

Su Yishui quickly walked over to hold Ranran's wrist and took her pulse, then asked her, "How are you? Are you okay?"

Ran Ran shook his head and said, "You should ask him quickly, what exactly is the purpose of the Brahma Cult to plot against us?"

Su Yishui nodded, stood up, took out the mantra talisman and stuck it on Shen Kuang's body.

Shen Kuang knew that he had fallen into a trap. Although he was trapped, he remained calm and just stared at the couple who had set him up with a sneer. But when he saw Su Yishui put the truth talisman on him, his eyes suddenly showed desperate fear.

"Master, I was wrong. Please don't ask me. I have sworn an oath. If I tell you something, my soul will be burned and I will never be able to reincarnate!"

Shen Kuang was well aware of the power of the mantra talisman, and in fear he suddenly cried out for help.

But Su Yishui remained unmoved and asked coldly: "Where is the skull of that demon king now? Who is your mastermind behind this? What are you going to do by arresting Ran Ran?"

After putting on the truth talisman, no matter how reluctant you are, you will still answer other people's questions truthfully.

So no matter how reluctant Shen Kuang was, he had to open his mouth and say: "The skull was taken away by Mu Ranwu's followers and sent to the Southeast Sea of ​​Eternal Life, and all of my Brahma followers obeyed..."

At this point, Shen Kuang, who was fixed in place, suddenly widened his eyes, and his body spontaneously combusted, with flames coming out...

He seemed to know that he could not escape death, and he let out a mournful laugh: "Brahma has appeared in the world, turned the world around, and helped the gods to restore the throne. Even though I die, I am still alive!"

In an instant, Shen Kuang had turned into a withered black corpse. His charred body was blown away by the wind and disappeared without a trace.

It seems that what he just said was true. Someone has set a fatal gag order on him. Even if he wants to reveal the real culprit behind the scenes, he will be burned to ashes immediately.

Ran Ran was a little disappointed: "Who on earth is this person who has such great power? Where did the Brahma Sect come from?"

At first, when she found the strange shoe in the stream, she whispered it to Su Yishui, who she hadn't spoken to for several days.

So the two of them made a plan and decided not to make any moves first, but to wait and see what Shen Kuang was going to do.

Ran Ran originally went down the mountain to split the troops into two groups. She pretended to go down the mountain and then hid in the dark to track Shen Kuang and his accomplices.

But she never expected that Shen Kuang would chase her down the mountain and insisted on sending her off, so Ran Ran simply took advantage of the situation and agreed to his request, and the two of them traveled together.

However, when Ran Ran noticed that he had changed his route and walked to a remote place, if he went further, he would reunite with his party and she might find it difficult to deal with him, so she suddenly attacked and exposed Shen Kuang's true identity.

Now Shen Kuang has been burned to ashes, and not even a trace of him is left. The only clue is about to be lost again.

"You clearly knew he had problems, but you still followed him? Are you trying to kill yourself?" Su Yishui asked with a stern face after taking Ran Ran's pulse and regulating her breathing.

Ran Ran had not expected that Shen Kuang's hidden strength was so strong. He claimed to be an elder of the Brahma Religion. And the two powerful people beside Mu Ranwu also seemed to be followers of the Brahma Religion.

It seems that the strength of this revived Brahma sect is not to be underestimated. I am afraid that even if all the righteous people in the world come together, they will not be a match for this evil sect!

However, when she and Su Yishui made the plan, she just said that she was using the excuse of going home to visit relatives, and there was no mention of being expelled from Xishan.

Ran Ran felt that Su Yishui was pretending to be serious and was doing what he had always wanted to do by deceiving Shen Kuang.

Since he is no longer her master, it is inappropriate to reprimand her in such a fatherly tone.

"Of course I sensed that you were following me, so I revealed my cards to him... Since the traitor in Xishan has been successfully dug out and Shen Kuang is dead, there is no need for me to take care of him in secret. Although what I said in the study was an excuse, it was half true. I want to go back to see my parents."

As Ranran spoke, she pulled her wrist back from Su Yishui's big hand.

Su Yishui watched as the little hand was as slippery as a fish, and he retracted it in an instant, his expression becoming even more stern as he said, "I know you are telling the truth, but you are also the target of the Brahma Cult right now. If you go looking for your parents so recklessly, I'm afraid they will be exposed to the risk of being fearless..."

Ran Ran also knew this. She thought for a moment and said, "I will find a way. Mr. Su, please go back soon."

Su Yishui grabbed her wrist without any hesitation this time: "Why, I expelled you, and you are unhappy?"

Ran Ran pretended to be cheerful and said, "What's there to be happy about? It has nothing to do with you and me. You can feel relieved..."

Su Yishui said in a long tone: "Although you are not my apprentice anymore, I am still your disciple. We did not terminate the master-apprentice relationship back then. As your apprentice, how can I let my sickly master wander around?"

"Ah? Didn't you... defect from the sect back then?" Ranran half opened her mouth. She had heard her second uncle talk about this proudly.

Su Yishui has learned from this girl's heartless nature that once she has broken off contact with someone, she will turn around and ignore him.

When he said he wanted to expel her, he was actually teasing her a little bit, just wanting to see the surprised expression on the little girl's face when she was caught off guard.

I didn't expect that this woman, after being reborn, would still wave her sleeves and leave without taking a single cloud with her!

So he paused and said calmly: "Yu Tong said that although I ran away that year, you did not remove me from Xishan, and finally let me become the leader of Xishan. The status of master and disciple is still there, and you and I can't get rid of it!"

Ranran blinked her eyes. She had never thought that one day she would climb to the top of Su Yishui.

In other words, she can be his master?

She couldn't help laughing and said, "Are you serious? Then I won't be polite..."

When he saw Ran Ran's face finally showing a sly childish smile, Su Yishui felt relieved. He didn't know why, but he couldn't stand seeing the indifference on her face that showed she was indifferent to life and death.

That fair and tender face still looks better with a smile on it, but the little girl was a little too arrogant. After hearing what he said, she turned her eyes and said in a long tone: "Shui'er... go and get some clean water for the teacher!"

What a jerk! He actually deliberately called me "Shui'er", the name he hated the most.

A malicious smile slowly appeared on Su Yishui's handsome face: "...Master, have you ever heard of the term "rebellious disciple" in this world? Unfortunately, I am that kind of rebellious and unfilial disciple!"

Ran Ran now really experienced the hard work of Mu Qingge in his previous life. If you accidentally accept a traitor, it is really easy to die young!

Although Xue Ranran now bears the title of Su Yishui's master, he does not have the authority of a master at all.

After they came out of the dense forest, they did not rush back to the West Mountain. When they came to the town to eat, Ranran saw some raw and pickled large flying crabs in the small restaurant. They were full of fat and golden, and he wanted to eat them.

But Su Yishui kept a straight face and refused to give in, saying that she was weak and if she upset her stomach, it would be terrible.

If we say that Su Yishui used to dote on her like a loving father, it was as if he wanted to make up for it and try his best to please her.

The current Su Yishui is the debt collector from his previous life. Not only is he a bad-tempered person, but he also always goes against Ran Ran.

If it was anything else, Ran Ran could still tolerate it. But when it came to eating, Ran Ran was as stubborn as a drunkard. He didn't let her eat, and Ran Ran really got angry, and once again politely said that she wanted to part ways with him.

The relationship between master and disciple is shallow, so there is no need to force it. At most, she can go through some formalities, and then they can part ways and live their own lives.

Su Yishui snorted coldly: "If you want to break up, you have to see if you have the ability. You beat me, then think about breaking off the friendship!"

This means that the crappy relationship between the master and the apprentice is even harder than a divorce between a husband and wife! The key point is that there is no government office to file a complaint, which is really speechless.

Ran Ran's face fell slightly, and she poked the rice vigorously with her chopsticks. Su Yishui looked at her coldly, wondering if she felt the satisfaction of controlling her master and letting out a breath of anger...

They stayed in an inn temporarily, and at night, Su Yishui knocked on her door with a small sand pot.

It turned out that Su Yishui disliked the small shop because it was not clean and there seemed to be dirt in the seams of the crab maker's hands.

So he went back, bought some live crabs himself, and paid the chef to make a special portion for him.

The one who spent the money was the master, and Su Yishui provided the money in full. The cook then washed his hands honestly, cut his nails, brushed the nail crevices, rinsed the crabs, prepared the ingredients, and made such a sand pot neatly.

However, Su Yishui's face was still very sour. He felt that he was really acting strangely and had seen a ghost. But when he saw Ran Ran holding the jar with love as if it were a treasure, his face became a little better.

By the next morning, the crabs had been marinated and after being chopped open, the bright yellow crab roe was spread on the hot rice and topped with a spoonful of the marinated crab soup. It was so delicious that you couldn't describe it after taking a bite.

Su Yishui originally didn't believe what Yu Tong said, that he had indulged this girl and took her to eat at every house along the long streets of the capital.

But now, seeing this girl eating contentedly with sparkling eyes, he might really be possessed and take her out to eat and drink everywhere.

After eating a full-pound crab, Ran Ran smiled at his traitorous disciple with some embarrassment. Although he was hard and cold, he was still the master with a hard mouth but a soft heart.

So she hurriedly put the peeled crab legs and crab roe into Su Yishui's bowl.

"Master, eat the rice while it's hot. If you're afraid of the cold, you can add some ginger juice."

Su Yishui slowly took the bowl and said, "Why are you calling me Master again? Aren't you planning to disown me and never have anything to do with me again?"

Ran Ran scooped a spoonful and handed it to Su Yishui's mouth, saying like coaxing a child: "I am so young, how can I be your master? Even if I am expelled from Xishan by you, I still have to get used to calling you master..."

When she brought up age, Su Yishui's handsome face turned slightly sour again, and he said in a long tone, "Am I old?"

Ran Ran waved her hands quickly: "No more age, no more age! Eating this crab will nourish your complexion!"

Su Yishui snorted coldly, and finally took the crab from Ranran's hand and put it into his mouth.

This was also the first time the two of them had a peaceful meal together after Ran Ran's past life identity was revealed.

Su Yishui didn't want to talk about the grudges between the two in their previous lives. He didn't have a strong appetite, so after eating a few bites, he personally peeled one for Ran Ran so that she could eat her fill at once.

It's okay to indulge in this kind of raw pickled food occasionally, but if you eat it all the time, wouldn't it be harmful to your health?

She no longer had the habit of collecting handsome men in this life, but her greed was even greater than before. She didn't know if it was the obsession she had when she died.

After finishing their meal, the two of them were finally able to discuss the next things to do. Su Yishui said, "I have deliberately preserved the aura on the top of the West Mountain. If there are still traitors in the West Mountain, they will think that I am still in seclusion on the top of the mountain. We must take this opportunity to find Mu Ranwu first and find out the whereabouts of the skull. If we know the Brahma Cult's lair, we can stop being disturbed."

Mu Ranwu's whereabouts are not as ostentatious as before.

However, if one wants to investigate, one can find out. It is said that she is heading towards Huainan area and seems to be heading to the sea.

This is similar to Ran Ran's previous wish, both heading south. Su Yishui remembered that Ran Ran said he wanted to travel around the mountains and rivers, and now he can have some fun while he's at it.

Su Yishui didn't mind giving Xue Ranran the thumbs-up on unimportant little matters, and now that there were unknown enemies hiding in the dark, it would be inappropriate for the two to use their true Qi to reveal their whereabouts.

So the two of them didn't even use any escape techniques, but hired a boat and sailed south along the river.

As for the reincarnation tree, Su Yishui actually sealed it in a glass bead using his magic power.

The layer of shallow soil inside the bead was said to be the Xirang left by Dayu's father Gun when he was controlling floods. If it were exposed to the wind, the Xirang would spread for miles and block the river, and it was very precious. The weak little tree was planted on the Xirang, and then the small bead that sealed the reincarnation tree was encircled with a silver chain and hung around Ranran's neck.

In Su Yishui's words, this reincarnation tree was not an ordinary tree at all, but it was trapped in the world of mortals and would eventually consume its last bit of spiritual energy.

He thought hard for a long time and finally came up with this idea, to place the reincarnation tree on the soil to see if it could alleviate Ranran's weakness.

After Ranran put on this special necklace, her complexion improved a lot in the following few days, and her fair skin finally regained its peach petal-like pink color.

So during the day, Su Yishui accompanied her to travel around the mountains and rivers. When the moon shone brightly on the river, she accompanied Su Yishui to meditate and practice, absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon.

Perhaps it was because Su Yishui had given her half of his Dantian, when the two of them sat facing each other in meditation, the true Qi lingering in their Dantians were connected, and the circulation of breathing was several times better than that of one person practicing alone.

In the past, Su Yishui seemed to be worried that Ranran’s body was too weak, so when it came to foundation-building and cultivation, he emphasized gradual progress, guiding her step by step to advance.

But now that an unknown powerful enemy is approaching, Su Yishui only hopes that Ran Ran can become stronger, so that he can at least protect himself, so he is more harsh and difficult than before.

Although Ranran has extraordinary wisdom and is far superior to his peers in cultivation, he is still far from meeting Su Yishui's strict requirements that are like forcing him to grow too fast.

For example, today, Su Yishui led her to practice the Tianleidu mantra, which required the true energy to penetrate the meridians instantly and deliver a critical strike at the same time.

There is no problem for Ranran to penetrate the meridians, but to deliver a critical strike, one needs to use the power of Gen Shen.

Ran Ran had never been able to master this Genshen power. Su Yishui only said that it was a tongue root movement technique, combined with Dantian activation.

But Ran Ran was still unable to get the point even though he was activating his true Qi and silently moving his tongue in his mouth.

This Tianleidu is Su Yishui's own unique skill, just like the Qigong that he asked Gao Cang and others to practice while carrying water. Both are unique and quite profound.

This kind of tricks are usually the most difficult at the beginning, but once you break through, you can move forward without any obstacles, and make great progress in a day. This is also the reason why Su Yishui, at his early age, easily surpassed many powerful people from other sects.

And now Ranran is stuck at the entry step.

The method they were practicing now was similar to the dual cultivation method in the sect, so they sat cross-legged opposite each other, very close to each other.

When Ranran closed her eyes and spoke, the moonlight was clear, shining on her fair face. The trembling of her eyelashes was illuminated by a fishing light hanging on the boat and was clearly seen by the man.

"Master, where is Genshen? Why can't I find it?" Ranran didn't know that Su Yishui had been looking at her intently for a long time. She just half raised her head and asked with her pink lips slightly pouting.

The delicate chin was slightly raised, looking like she was asking for a kiss...

Su Yishui didn't know what happened, but suddenly he felt a heat rising to his head. He suddenly moved over and pressed his lips on her.

Ran Ran suddenly widened her eyes, and in a trance she thought that Su Yishui had recovered his memory...

But after a passionate kiss, the root of her tongue was still numb, but Su Yishui looked up at her expressionlessly and said, "Now you know where Gen Shen is, right?"
