387: Chapter 386: Leaving the Royal Capital 387: Chapter 386: Leaving the Royal Capital “Young hero, don’t be too hard on yourself, there’s always a glimmer of hope in everything.”

Daoist Wang stroked his beard, quite satisfied with Su Ran’s dispirited look.

“I am entirely grateful, Immortal, for any guidance you could provide!”

Upon hearing that there was hope, Su Ran immediately perked up and addressed the dignified Daoist Wang.

“Legend tells of a magical artifact in the God-Demon Continent, known as the Divine Wish Stone.

Young hero, do you know of it?”

Divine Wish Stone!

Prophet of the Demon, Ancient Three Coins!

The Bone Soul Ghost Fire in Su Ran’s eyes grew brighter, flickering with increasing intensity.

“I’m grateful to Immortal for teaching me!”

Su Ran’s spirit soared, and his unwavering confidence returned.

“Heh, it seems the young hero is well informed.

Excellent, excellent.”

Daoist Wang nodded, but was quick to douse Su Ran’s enthusiasm, “However, obtaining the Divine Wish Stone is far more difficult than the Nine Heavens God Water!”

But Su Ran didn’t care, if he could not get the Divine Wish Stone, could he not get the Prophet of the Demon?!

It was a joke.

He already had two of the three Ancient Coins.

And he had a rough idea about the last one, the Copper Thread Coin, which surely had something to do with the Ghost Clan!

It seemed he needed to take a trip to the land of the Ghost Clan at some point…

And as for where the Ghost Clan’s lair was hidden, Han Siying was the only lead!

“I understand, but anyway, there’s a glimmer of hope.

How can a living man be suffocated by a bucket of piss?”

Su Ran laughed, his words filled with refreshing honesty.

“Vulgar!”

Daoist Wang glared at Su Ran.

He had been by the Human Emperor’s side for many years and had never heard such crude words.

He found it hard to adjust.

“What’s that noise outside, why so loud?

This is the Royal Capital, have we no decorum?!”

Daoist Wang was displeased, asking Su Ran.

“I have no idea, Immortal.

After you sealed your six senses, I stayed by your side for fear of your safety and had no idea what was happening outside.”

Su Ran ‘s gaze was sincere, devoid of any pretense.

If some green hat player were here, he’d surely marvel, asking, “Bro, which drama school did you graduate from?”

“Come with me to check it out!”

Daoist Wang was very serious, his tone leaving no room for doubt.

Outside the mansion.

As soon as Daoist Wang stepped out of the door, he encountered three or four Beast Clan creatures rushing at him, their foul smell causing him to frown.

“Animals, you dare!”

How audacious!

This place was under the feet of the emperor.

How could the Beast Clan dare to tread on this land and tarnish the face of the Human Emperor?!

If the Human Emperor learned of this, would he not be outraged, blaming him?!

Damn, are they really underestimating the Human Race?!

Daoist Wang exploded with anger, exuding an intimidating aura.

Holding his three-foot-long sword, in the blink of an eye, he struck down the approaching beasts with three swift slashes.

The corpses of the creatures lingered in mid-air before blood and flesh separated and fell to the ground.

Oh my goodness, this was a game, right?

The Beast Clan also had health points and defense values.

To instantly kill a group in one stroke, how high was his attack power?!

Witnessing the rage-infused strike by Daoist Wang, Su Ran shivered with fear, a chill running down his spine.

Thankfully, while dealing with the shadow avatar of the Human Emperor, the super boss had already sealed his six senses and focused his attention on the Dream-Seeking Mirror.

Otherwise, no matter how many lives he had, they wouldn’t be enough!

Thinking about this, Su Ran wiped the cold sweat off his forehead unconsciously.

“Young man, please keep your distance.

I wouldn’t want you to get blood on yourself,” Daoist Wang said to Su Ran with a mild tone.

Clearly, Su Ran, an extraordinary being, was quite to his liking, if nothing else, at least, he was wealthy!

“You beasts, prepare to meet your death!”

At this point, Daoist Wang, glowing in golden light and attacking like a flying dragon, charged into the Beast Clan army which sprawled before him, marking the beginning of the fierce battle.

The Beast Clan army wasn’t a match for Daoist Wang individually, but they had the advantage in numbers!

All of them abandoned their buildings and swarmed towards Daoist Wang, who had naturally attracted their attention.

However, amidst this intense war, Su Ran slipped away quietly.

He didn’t have time to indulge in this visually striking war.

He knew well that he had lost the initiative, reinforcements were increasing, the super boss had the strength comparable to a guardian beast, and there was no point in staying here anymore.

If Daoist Wang found out that the shadow avatar of the Human Emperor was killed and even the Imperial Jade Seal was lost, wouldn’t he burst into a frenzy?

Pity.

His summoned Beast Clan army was to be sacrificed.

He could foresee the end of these animals and couldn’t expect them to attack Ni Wudao’s territory any longer.

“Such luck!”

Su Ran briefly gave up the idea of visiting Ni Wudao’s territories.

Without the Beast Clan’s help, why should he add to his troubles by going there alone?

Using the confusion, Su Ran managed to leave the Royal Capital alone without meeting the guards.

He wasn’t sure whether they were killed or had escaped, but at least it helped him avoid unnecessary confrontation.

Within the Imperial City square, players grouped together and marched towards the Royal Capital with zeal, forcing Su Ran to temporarily avoid the crowd.

“Hurry, brothers.

The Beast Clan is almost wiped out!”

“Remember, the profits from selling the Dream-Seeking Mirror we get is to be split equally!”

“Go faster, seize more!

The more you seize, the better the chances!

You’ll miss it all if you’re late!”

…

Damn it!

Su Ran finally understood that the reason for the players’ quick return was his Dream-Seeking Mirror!

Those players thought the assaulting Beast Clan dropped it and it ignited their passions to storm towards the Royal Capital.

After all, the Dream-Seeking Mirror was an ultra-high-quality item that could trigger ten system-wide announcements!

Of course, the players would go nuts over it!

Su Ran went against the flow of players rushing towards the destination and circled around the Imperial City.

After making sure no players were following him, he entered the sewers beneath the Imperial City.

Of course, he couldn’t detect advanced players like Green Hat, who possessed the Invisibility Technique.

However, why would such high-level players have nothing better to do than to track him?!

“Sir!”

Shortly after heading towards the depth of the sewers, Su Ran didn’t find the sight of the old beggar.

He remembered that this dark and damp place was inhabited by a large amount of Underground Crazy Rats.

These rats were the size of a wild dog and were numerous in quantity.

The first time he came here, these rats scared him quite a bit.

From the experience of his previous visit, the rats were naturally timid and would easily create commotion due to loud noises.

“Crack!”

Without hesitation, Su Ran directed a bolt of lightning at the sewer wall.

It exploded with a loud crack on the hard stone wall.

This loud noise was particularly ear-piercing in the quiet darkness of the sewers.

“Squeak!

Squeak!”

As expected, the loud sound disturbed the timid swarm of Underground Crazy Rats, and they all came rushing out like a tide, soon disappearing into the distance.

Su Ran had used his Treading on Air Technique and hid himself at the top of the sewer long before the rat swarm attacked.

Once the rat swarm disappeared, he landed from his elevated position and ventured deeper into the sewer.

“Hmm, the golden-haired rat boss hasn’t respawned.

I kind of miss it.”

Su Ran shook his head and laughed.

Back then, he was so weak that he couldn’t even defeat a level 20 boss.

He only survived using his strategic intelligence.

Thinking about this brought a smile to his face.
