Chapter 295: Chapter 168 I Recommend the King of Sudden Death as the Saint Heir of the Divine Sect_1

After making his decision, Lu Ran began to conserve his energy and prepare for action, respecting his enemy enough to plan a stealth attack in peak condition.

Once his spirits were fully charged, Lu Ran, cloaked in black and not looking like a good character, mounted his giant dog mount, Mr. Husky, ready to take off.

Being part of the Necro Sect now, and with Mr. Husky as his mount, Lu Ran was reminded of an animation, Ghost Princess.

He naturally wasn’t a princess, but he hoped his handsome and dashing self wouldn’t be mistaken by the enemy faction as the Necromancer Prince.

"Little Husky, let’s go!" Lu Ran patted Mr. Husky.

Bored for a week, Mr. Husky was feeling quite good about the upcoming fight, no longer bothered by being a mount, its eyes roving in all directions, seemingly preparing to unleash some big move.

"Aoow~~~" With a howl, Mr. Husky trod the air, surrounded by Wild Wind, and charged step by step towards the high skies.

Treading the wind, they rode upon it!

Mr. Husky was fast, and Lu Ran intentionally let it fly a bit higher because, unsure of the enemy’s exact location, they needed to be cautious and search slowly.

However, before Lu Ran could get too far from the City Lord’s Mansion, suddenly, a Necromancer, shrouded in grey fog, clad in black robes with the shadow of a Vulture Soul Shadow lingering around him, appeared mid-air in front of Lu Ran.

"Hmm?" Lu Ran frowned.

"I am Hoddy, the assistant of Lord Gao Li."

"Ordered to protect his excellency, the King of Sudden Death."

"Where might you be headed?" asked the Necromancer in a raspy voice, which Lu Ran found quite speechless.

Gao Li, you little man, it wasn’t enough to assign a Black Feather girl to watch me alone, you had to plant an even more powerful assistant nearby, huh?

Lu Ran guessed that going to the Imperial Faction alone was probably impossible now, as Gao Li would never allow him to go "to his death."

"How are you protecting me when that Space Attribute guy came again?" Lu Ran retorted, taking the initiative by saying, "Targeted over and over, I can’t stand it any longer. I’ll chase after and eliminate the enemy myself right now."

"What??" Upon hearing this, Gao Li’s assistant’s expression changed. Had that Space Attribute character infiltrated again?

"Your excellency, King of Sudden Death, please be calm. If you chase after him, you’ll fall right into their trap. Let’s go to Lord Gao Li and discuss together how to counter the enemy, shall we?"

"Woof!" Mr. Husky glared at him. Stop blocking the way!

It remembered the grudge, for being stopped from joining a fight.

At this moment, the movements in the high skies outside the City Lord’s Mansion were also noticed by many Necromancers. Seeing this, Lu Ran said:

"Fine then." Lu Ran, left without a choice, and not wanting to make things hard for Gao Li—who had given him cultivation notes and a Soul Suppressing Stone—agreed.

Thus, he agreed to meet Gao Li with this Vulture ghost.

...

"This is intolerable!"

Shortly after, Gao Li became rather angry upon learning that Lu Ran had been harassed by the Space Attribute enemy once more.

However, facing an equally "angry" Lu Ran, Gao Li still tried to mollify him, saying, "Brother King of Sudden Death, please calm down, you’re being too irrational."

When Hoddy mentioned that Lu Ran wanted to chase down the Imperial Remnant Soldiers, Gao Li’s mouth twitched.

This kind of reckless behavior was indeed in line with Lu Ran’s previously demonstrated patterns of action.

"Hoddy, Black Feather, how did you two protect Brother King of Sudden Death, letting the enemy infiltrate without notice?"

He scolded, looking at Hoddy and Black Feather.

The two of them appeared quite innocent.

A Space Attribute enemy was inherently difficult to detect! And indeed, they hadn’t noticed any trace of him.

"Don’t blame them, but do we just sit here and wait to die?" said Lu Ran.

"One or two intrusions to gather intelligence, the Imperial Army is clearly aiming for Midwood City. If we’re passive, it’s too risky."

"Old brother Gao Li, that guy is too annoying. Let’s kill our way over together."

"Rather than waiting for them to be ready to attack the city, we’d better take advantage of the Necromancers’ strengths and take the initiative to slip over and end the enemy."

Gao Li: "..."

The logic was sound to the point he couldn’t object.

After being discovered, Lu Ran laid all his cards on the table, trying to persuade Gao Li to lead a large force and storm the enemy.

However, Lu Ran soon sighed, clearly seeing the apprehension in Gao Li.

"They are a regular army after all, and it requires careful planning. Even though they’re remnants, their commander Kayne is a tough opponent, no weaker than me."

"Plus, they might have received help from civilian forces."

"Brother King of Sudden Death, you’re just a first-level Beast Trainer, although already very strong and having unique insights in certain areas. But you must realize, in a head-on battle, the difference between level one and level two... that group of Imperial Remnant Soldiers still has quite a few second-level Beast Trainers."

"Moreover, they are gathered in hundreds..."

"My suggestion is still to hold Midwood City. As long as they don’t attack within a month, when the Divine Envoy arrives, we can ask the Divine Envoy to deal with them with ease."

"Are second-level Beast Trainers that strong?" Lu Ran asked.

"I don’t want to be harassed by that Space Attribute rat anymore."

"If we’re not going on the offensive, fine, but I’ll go take out that Space Attribute guy so he won’t keep bothering me."

"..." Gao Li’s mouth twitched again.

It seemed he wouldn’t be able to deter Lu Ran.

Which was understandable, as no one liked the idea of someone always spying on them from the shadows.

It was really disconcerting.

If he were Lu Ran, he would also want to take out that Space Attribute character.
