They don't seek fame, wealth, or territory expansion, but the number of Deadpools they've killed in the country is countless.
That's why when Nuwa heard Zhang Wanjun ask the Lü family for five million US dollars, she said, "Why are you so unreasonable?"
Lu Zhong's poison was left over from when he killed the servant, and it had been corroded by the poisonous blood of a certain dead servant for a long time.
This family has not had many offspring, and now their bloodline is dwindling. The two youngest members are Lü Xueer and Lü Yongbin.
Their bloodline isn't anything special either. In short, after the next generation, the Lü family might completely disappear, scattered among the people with their mixed-race blood.
After all, with Lü Yongbin's character, how could he possibly be fit to be the head of a family?
Lu Xue'er's bloodline is average, only at the B-level, and she is not good at fighting. It is said that she even has difficulty killing a servant.
"So I'll just consider it doing a good deed?" Gu Ran understood what Zhang Wanjun meant.
“Yes, just leave a good impression on Nuwa. If Nuwa remembers your kindness, you will benefit from it in the future,” Zhang Wanjun said.
"Why are there so many Deadpools over there?" Gu Ran asked, puzzled.
Zhang Wanjun slowly said, "There are many reasons for this, but in fact, it has been mostly cleared up on the domestic side. It's mainly on the border, in Outer Mongolia."
"Oh, I understand." Gu Ran nodded.
With Zhang Wanjun's advice, and because Gu Ran also admired Lü Zhong for silently killing so many assassins over the years, he agreed to treat his poison.
However, Kunshan is too far from Shanghai, making it inconvenient for him to travel back and forth every day, so he asked them to move to Shanghai.
Ji Yuanhua had a company in Shanghai, so he took Lü Zhong and his grandson with him there.
He also needs to prepare an antidote, conduct a thorough examination of Lü Zhong, and discuss the treatment plan with Gu Ran.
It takes time.
As for the Dragon-Slaying Sword, Gu Ran refused to take it, leaving it stuck in the ground, and no amount of persuasion could change his mind.
Zhang Youlong had a bad temper and wanted to yell a few more words, but Zhang Wanjun stopped him with a single glare.
"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll take the Dragon Slayer Sword back to the patriarch, and you can go and explain to him yourself that there's no one to wield the sword."
The Dragon-Slaying Sword and its wielder are two indispensable components of the Zhang family, but the talent of the wielder is extremely rare. Among the younger generation, Gu Ran is currently the only one qualified to be the wielder.
Even the head of the family is not qualified to be the sword bearer.
Moreover, Gu Ran will need to help with matters concerning the Zhang family's ancestral home.
Thinking of all this, Zhang Youlong didn't say much. Everyone has their own way of dealing with someone else. Because he valued hierarchy and seniority, he listened to the head of the family.
Finally, Zhang Wanjun temporarily kept the Dragon-Slaying Sword.
……
When Gu Ran returned to Shanghai in the afternoon, she picked up two free-range chickens from Ji Yuanhua. The older hen was used to make soup, and the younger capon was used to make poached chicken. Perfect.
To make poached chicken, he picked two handfuls of fresh scallions from the vegetable garden before boarding the helicopter back to Shanghai.
The group agreed to go to Ji Yuanhua's company in Shanghai the next day to discuss the treatment plan.
When Gu Ran stepped off the helipad on the roof of a building in Shanghai, the ground crew members were stunned.
They assumed that Gu Ran took the helicopter to Kunshan to buy two live chickens.
These days, rich people actually take helicopters to buy groceries. How extravagant and down-to-earth is that?
Carrying two live chickens, Gu Ran went to the vegetable market near her home, asked the vendors to help her slaughter, bleed, and pluck the feathers, and bought some seasonings and vegetables to take home.
Su Xiaoqiang and Liu Miaomiao seem to have something to do tonight and won't be back until after 8 o'clock.
Gu Ran put all the ingredients in the kitchen first, and then submitted Gong Xuan's blood sample to the system.
[Gong Xuan's blood sample has been determined to be of extremely high quality (Level 1). This sample cannot be collected repeatedly.]
[Rewards are being processed, please wait...]
[Reward: Increases Chakra by 1 card, current total Chakra is 21 cards]
[Current progress of unlocking the Mangekyou Sharingan: 2/24]
[Current progress of unlocking Immortal Body: 25%]
Blood sample in a berserk state?
Based on experience, only the blood samples of those who have walked the path to godhood will exhibit a berserk state.
It seems that some aristocratic families may possess some kind of technology that can temporarily enhance a person's bloodline.
And this Gong Xuan... is very likely like Chu Zihang, having used Blood Explosion, and his body is on the verge of going out of control.
But Senior Brother Chu Zihang has a cheat code; if Gong Xuan didn't, he probably wouldn't live much longer.
Gu Ran didn't bother to think about it. He drew all the curtains in the house and then created nine shadow clones.
The true body naturally intends to go to the waterfall in the dream world of Mount Myōboku to continue cultivating spiritual power.
The remaining shadow clones each had their own tasks.
One of the shadow clones is going to complete the "Kassel College Holiday Daily Report Form".
This is a school rule at Kassel College: during the holidays, students must submit daily online reports, and professors will grade these reports.
These reports will be included in the school's records as part of the holiday assignments. Good records during the holidays can improve GPA, and lying is not allowed; lying is equivalent to cheating and will be punished if caught.
Strict on the outside, relaxed on the inside – this is the principal's strategy for managing students in Angers. They can relax a bit at school, since they are all of mixed race.
However, once students leave school for holidays, they must be strictly managed.
During holidays, students at Kassel College return to the lives of ordinary people and live among people in the real world.
Who knows what those half-bloods plagued by the 'Sorrow of Blood' might suddenly do!
Chapter 193 You're not here to sell swords, are you?
If a student accidentally reveals their "word power" ability in public and causes a major impact, the Secret Service will have to spend more money and energy to deal with it.
Therefore, Principal Angers unleashed the powerful weapon of "Daily Report".
Every student had to complete a report every day during the holidays, and Gu Ran had gotten used to it.
"Have any unknown dinosaurs been detected?"
Gu Ran wrote 'No', hybrids don't count as dragons.
"Did the use of the power of words?"
Gu Ran also filled in 'No', because ninjutsu doesn't count as a word of power.
Is there anything unusual about your physical condition?
"Have you found any suspected gold refining equipment?"
The remaining questions were all "no no no," and it took Shadow Clone more than twenty minutes to finish the report, which consisted of several pages of content.
In addition, the other shadow clones also have to do housework, such as making soup and cooking.
Some shadow clones need to read books and study.
In short, each of the nine shadow clones was busy with their own tasks.
When Su Xiaoqiang and Liu Miaomiao returned home and opened the security door around 8 p.m., these shadow clones heard the sound, formed hand seals, and automatically disappeared on the spot.
Gu Ran slowly exited the meditative state and woke up in reality.
The next second, a slight feeling of fatigue began to rise, and the momentary discomfort made Gu Ran's mind a little sluggish.
"Wow, Gu Ran, aren't you a reptile researcher? How come you're even reading books on human anatomy?" Liu Miaomiao asked, picking up a book from the sofa after returning home.
Gu Ran's main body was on a recliner on the balcony, while his shadow clone was reading a book on the sofa.
I read anatomy books mainly to understand human anatomy so that I can better use palm techniques and chakra scalpels.
While at Kassel College, he frequently borrowed various anatomy books from the library and even used his connections within the Secret Service to travel to the Chicago Medical School to practice on several 'silent mentors'. (Note: "Silent mentor" is a respectful term used in the medical field to refer to body donors.)
Therefore, he has a considerable understanding of human anatomy.
"Humans and reptiles are both vertebrates. I wanted to draw parallels and find inspiration for my thesis," he casually explained to Liu Miaomiao.
"Oh~"
Liu Miaomiao responded.
She asked casually, and then went back to her room to change into her loungewear.
After seeing these books, Su Xiaoqiang remembered how her boyfriend had massaged her last night to relieve her period cramps, and thought to herself that he might have read these books specifically for her.
He's so nice.
Because the shadow clones had provided a large amount of feedback, Gu Ran felt somewhat confused and tired.
He subconsciously rubbed his temples, slowly digesting the learning outcomes of the shadow clone technique.
"Are you taking it too hard?" Seeing this, Su Xiaoqiang immediately walked to the recliner and naturally pressed his temples with her fingers to massage his head.
Feeling the strength of her soft fingertips, Gu Ran felt sweet and happy.
He held her fair hand and said, "I'm fine, I just read for too long and my eyes are a little dry."
"Is dinner ready? We specifically skipped dinner to come back." Liu Miaomiao came out of the room at this moment, completely oblivious to any romantic gestures, like a hungry child asking its parents for food.
"It's already prepared." Gu Ran got up from the recliner and took out the food for the hungry baby.
The poached chicken and chicken soup were prepared long ago.
Then, use the chicken fat floating on top of the chicken broth to blanch a plate of lettuce with oyster sauce, and a simple dinner is ready.
Because the chickens are free-range and fresh, high-end ingredients often only require the simplest cooking methods to be delicious enough.
Su Xiaoqiang and Liu Miaomiao were very satisfied with their meal, especially the chicken soup that Gu Ran stewed, which was cooked perfectly and had a sweet and refreshing taste.
"I'm only able to have this bowl of soup tonight because of Xiaoqiang," Liu Miaomiao teased the two of them.
After dinner, while Liu Miaomiao was taking a shower, Su Xiaoqiang couldn't wait to hug her boyfriend.
"Did you travel a long way to make me chicken soup?" she asked, hugging her boyfriend from behind.
"It's not far, I happen to be in Kunshan." Gu Ran took her two small hands that were wrapped around his waist and gently squeezed the soft flesh of her palms.
Su Xiaoqiang lowered her head and chuckled, her cheek pressed against his broad back, quietly embracing him like that.
