Chapter 335

It's common for people who live away from home to only report good news and not bad.

Ji Ran naturally couldn't mention the dangers he faced in the myriad realms, as that would only cause his father unnecessary worry and serve no other purpose.

Ji Ran only mentioned the situation in Bingcheng and Qingshi, and also told her father about the Demon Realm, especially the Demon Realm, which would definitely be made public to the Secret Service later.

Of course, the dangers they encountered were concealed throughout the process.

……

"A new upheaval."

Ji Cheng sighed and said, "Currently, the Special Operations Department has research collaborations with Cambridge and several local families."

“In the past, I was a supervisory staff member, and I was required to bring back some usable vaccines.”

"There's not much danger over there, just be careful of some extremist groups."

Ji Cheng looked at Ji Ran and said, "Don't worry, there will be a team of travelers with us."

"Ah."

At that moment, the mother's voice came from outside the study.

"Boom!"

"time to eat."

"What are you talking about? The door is closed."

The two smiled at each other and stood up.

"Don't tell your mother too much."

Ji Cheng said in a low voice, "She finally agreed not to apply for a transfer to the secret service. Talk to her about the special operations department, just like what you just told me."

"Uh."

Ji Ran was taken aback, but his father smiled, patted him hard on the shoulder, and said, "You're starting to look like a man."

After a moment, Ji Ran smiled, a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

What does your father do?

The veteran security guard, with decades of experience, knew at a glance what I was saying; he was just trying to fool me.

It was like he was coaxing his mother.

Especially since his father personally participated in the citywide epidemic in Qing City twenty years ago, he probably understands the travelers better than he does.

Ji Ran looked at the steam rising from the dining table and followed her father outside.

The night outside the French windows shimmered, and snowflakes, like glistening gold leaf, drifted down under the streetlights.

Enjoying the familiar taste of food, Ji Ran chatted casually with her parents about work, avoiding the important topics and having a pleasant time. At this moment, Ji Ran felt that this night, like the days of the past, was like a gentle, flowing stream.

He increasingly felt and agreed with the idea of ​​stopping the war.

It's best to never let the mortal world be tainted by the bloodshed of the heavens, for ordinary people have no power to resist them. Even if my father can gain power through vaccines, those powers derived from disease are utterly insignificant in the eyes of true powerhouses and travelers.

Ji Ran didn't try to hide her parents' abilities too much. Both her parents were shrewd and capable; her father clearly held an important position in the secret service, and her mother was one of the most respected security officers in the mountain city bureau. They would inevitably know some things.

"This...cat will stay at home for now, and Dad can take it with him when he goes to Europe."

At this moment, Ji Ran helped her mother tidy up the dining table, while her father washed the dishes in the kitchen.

As soon as he touched the jade ring, the Wind Beast landed on the table.

"This is?"

The mother glanced at it and gently rubbed the Wind Beast's head.

"Special breed of cat".

The wind-born beast was about to bare its teeth when a stranger ruffled its hair, but its eyes met Ji Ran's forced smile, and it suddenly shivered: "Meow~"

Ji Ran now possesses the Golden Crow, which he intends to use as his natal spirit beast. Moreover, the immortality of the Turbid Immortal Body is sufficient for him.

The Wind Beast itself is not an extremely powerful demon beast, but it is exceptionally immortal.

But since her father was going abroad on a mission and was accompanied by a wanderer, Ji Ran already knew that there must be danger involved.

Both men tacitly agreed to report only the good news and not the bad.

Ji Ran didn't believe that his father would spend an entire night tinkering with and modifying firearms just to do some research. A level 5 Wind Beast was more than enough to handle most situations in the present world.

"Row."

In the kitchen, the father agreed without any curiosity. The mother, however, looked at Ji Ran's ring with admiration. As the mother pressed for details, Ji Ran recounted some events in Bingcheng and the recent cult incident in Qing City.

At the same time, Ji Ran had Vlad make two more amulets. This time, they not only had the good fortune of the Zashiki-warashi, but he also added celestial radiance to them.

Ji Ran didn't simply knead the pieces together; instead, she used her skills.

【Mohist Mechanical Arts (Daozhen)】

Effect: It can combine, repair, and create any magic, electrical appliances, equipment, or objects.

Special Creations: These items are one-time use products, cannot be repaired, and cannot be enhanced.

Note: Creation arises from a single thought, and the mechanism of the Way takes form.

……

This is a fusion-like technique with no restrictions; it all depends on what you prepare. At this moment, Ji Ran twisted his hands, and two red pendants inlaid with white jade appeared in his palms.

【Celestial Light Pendant】(Common Item)

Effect: Increases the user's luck and grants immunity to one instance of fatal damage.

Special creation: a one-time product.

……

Ji Ran was very satisfied. He left the amulet with his parents, chatted for a while, and then returned to his room.

A large bed took up most of the room, and the wooden wardrobe was filled with my clean old clothes. The asparagus fern that I grew in junior high school was well cared for by my parents. Under the light, it was lush and green, almost covering the entire bay window, like a quiet little forest.

On the walnut bookshelf were the magazines I had been reading throughout high school. Several anime posters were also pasted on the headboard.

puff!
Ji Ran lay down, feeling the comfort of the large bed, and the fatigue in her heart was almost completely swept away.

Hey!
The wind beast cautiously entered the room, and the Kamaitachi was also released, flying to the curtains to swing. The Zashiki-warashi climbed onto the bookshelf, browsing through comic books with great interest.

"If something happens to him, I'll kill you."

The calm voice silenced the Wind Beast, as if the big boy on the sofa had transformed back into the decisive and ruthless Luan Ke of the myriad realms.

Ji Ran sighed again and said, "Protect him well, and I will guarantee that one day you will ascend to the third rank and sit in a rank of nobility."

"Woo!"

A glint of light appeared in the Wind Beast's eyes!
The weasel's little ears perked up suddenly, and its eyes, like copper bells, stared at Ji Ran. It opened its mouth, but then remembered that it already had someone, so it lowered its ears.

It looked listless.

Neither of the spirit beasts was stupid; having gained intelligence, they knew how unattainable the third tier was for them.

But Luan Ke's promises are the most trustworthy. He will definitely keep his word.

The Wind Beast immediately turned around and ran towards Ji Ran's parents' bedroom. Its small paws transformed into giant hands the size of a human head as it moved. A Wind Beast, resembling a giant tiger and ten feet long, slowly lay down outside the bedroom.

A pair of eyes stared intently into the dark living room.

A level 5 great demon, with the ability to control the wind and survive, could probably be dealt with by a level 6 traveler!
……

Snapped!
Ji Ran turned off the light and looked at the snowflakes falling gently in the sky outside the window.

In a few days, I'll be going to my grandfather's hometown for the Chinese New Year. After that, I'll need to dedicate myself fully to training. I urgently need to improve my combat skills, swordsmanship, and fighting style.

The Wind and Thunder Blade Manual only has blade techniques, not sword arts. When fighting against opponents of the same level, one's own moves are inferior.

Once Su Su replied, he told Captain Xie that if the mission in the Demon Realm wasn't urgent, he didn't plan to go this time.

The improvements that Yingzhou Fairy Island brought me were immense.

Even he himself felt that his strength was somewhat superficial.

Before entering the Southern Han world, we must absorb and digest those gains and transform them into real strength!
"call--"

Ji Ran stopped thinking about it and closed her eyes.

The Kamaitachi skillfully drew the curtains and hung upside down on the clothes rack. The Zashiki-warashi lit a flame for itself and continued reading on the bookshelf.

The tranquility of the night and the relaxation of home allowed Ji Ran to sleep so soundly for the first time since becoming a traveler.

……

Hey.

As night deepened, a pair of black leather shoes stood in the stairwell.

The door opened silently.
