Starting from Douluo to Capture Goddesses

After Nalan Yanran and her party returned to the Yun Lan Sect, they quickly caused a sensation.

A very young and handsome expert with a strength of at least Douwang appeared, which, after being passed from one Yun Lan Sect disciple to another, quickly spread throughout the sect.

All kinds of rumors were flying around, such as how the expert casually annihilated two powerful magical beasts with a wave of his hand or how he fell in love with Nalan Yanran at first sight and even gave her some token of affection… The stories were told with great exaggeration.

The appearance of a strong expert alone was enough to pique people's curiosity, let alone when it involved Nalan Yanran?

Nalan Yanran was their Yun Lan Sect's goddess!

They were irked by Nalan Yanran's engagement to Xiao Yan in the past, but as annoying as it was, it was Nalan Yanran's private matter, and they had no right to interfere. They didn't want Nalan Yanran to marry a good-for-nothing; that would be heartbreaking for them.

Now that a powerful expert had appeared and seemed to have that kind of intention towards Nalan Yanran, how could it not cause a commotion?

Especially since those who returned from the Magical Beast Forest were saying that Nalan Yanran was held in the expert's arms, with his hands wandering all over her; this only led to even more wild fantasies.

Ask any Yun Lan Sect disciple, who wouldn't want to have a deep exchange with Nalan Yanran?

Even though it wasn't possible, it didn't stop them from daydreaming!

They couldn't help imagining, how great would it be if they were that expert? Nalan Yanran was so beautiful, with a slim waist and a curvy figure; holding her in one's arms must feel fantastic, right? And as for the hands wandering all over her, the definition of this phrase was quite broad. Exactly what did it entail? To what extent? These thoughts made them even more envious and drooling.

And those disciples didn't stop from spreading rumors either.

People loved to watch the excitement and weren't afraid to make a big deal out of it, exaggerating the relationship between Xu Ran and Nalan Yanran to attract more attention.

If it weren't for the lack of time, Nalan Yanran would have completely become Xu Ran's woman, these people would probably have spread even more outrageous rumors, even going as far as claiming Nalan Yanran was pregnant with Xu Ran's child.

As the rumors became more exaggerated, the Elders of the Yun Lan Sect also started to take the matter seriously.

Nalan Yanran was the number one talent of the Yun Lan Sect and also the disciple of Yun Yun; naturally, her romantic affairs were of great importance to the sect.

...

The Yun Lan Sect.

The Great Elder Yun Leng called Nalan Yanran over to inquire.

"What? What did you say? A Dou Zong Expert?"

Yun Leng looked at Xu Ran excitedly, his voice trembling as he spoke.

His face was flushed with excitement.

He had never imagined that Nalan Yanran and her team would be so fortunate as to encounter a Dou Zong Expert this time!

Dear heavens! That was a Dou Zong Expert!

A Dou Zong Expert could change the entire power structure of the Jia Ma Empire!

That was the terrifying aspect of a Dou Zong Expert.

Any sect that possessed a Dou Zong Expert could become a powerful sect.

Moreover, Nalan Yanran had mentioned that the Dou Zong Expert didn't seem to care about age, which indicated that he might even have the chance to advance to Dou Zun!

The more Yun Leng thought about it, the more excited he became!

Originally, he had come to warn Nalan Yanran not to get involved with a person of unknown origin. But now… such a high-level person, how could he be someone of unknown origin?

Such a high-level person must be well ingratiated!

"Ahem. Yan Ran, I was wrong just now. I think such a distinguished person is worth building a deep relationship with, and you must thoroughly understand him. Do you know what I mean? Thorough understanding means..." Yun Leng had completely changed his attitude, looking at Nalan Yanran with increasing satisfaction.

She truly is the number one beauty of our Yun Lan Sect!

Nalan Yanran is at the age of ultimate beauty for a young girl, indeed extremely attractive.

If she could charm a Dou Zong Expert, it would bring great fortune to our Yun Lan Sect.

"Great Elder, what are you talking about?"

Nalan Yanran's face was so red it was almost scandalous, never expecting the prestigious Great Elder to suddenly be so kind to her, and even...

Is this the benefit of strength?

Xu Ran hadn't even visited the Yun Lan Sect, but just by revealing his power, the high ranks of the Yun Lan Sect were so respectful towards Xu Ran, and their attitude towards her also improved.

Only now did she realize the power that Xu Ran possessed.

In the past, even though she knew that this world ultimately respects strength, as a protected prodigy living in the Ivory Tower, she hadn't felt deeply the respect that strength commanded.

"Yan Ran, you must seize this opportunity. This is a Dou Zong Expert! In the Jia Ma Empire, even a Douhuang is considered a peak expert, so you can imagine how terrifying someone stronger like a Dou Zong can be," Yun Leng spoke. When he mentioned the words "Dou Zong," his face was filled with reverence.

Such an expert could annihilate them with a mere gesture.

Dou Zongs are able to begin harnessing the power of space, which is also why they can stand suspended in the air.

As for Dou Zuns, their control over space power is already very proficient, and they can even build Spatial Wormholes under certain conditions.

Such experts naturally have his respect.

Even Sect Master Yun Yun is merely a Douhuang, far beneath a Dou Zong.

"Great Elder, I..." Nalan Yanran stuttered, as the Great Elder's concern for her private matters made her quite embarrassed as a maiden yet to leave her boudoir.

"Yan Ran, a person may only encounter one or two opportunities in a lifetime, and if one does not grasp them, they might never come again and leave you with only regret. As long as that distinguished person takes an interest in you, you shouldn't push him away," he said.

"This is also a mission assigned to you by the sect. Whether you can form a good relationship with such a person now involves the interests of the sect. So this is not just your private affair, understand?"

"As for Xiao Yan, he truly is not worthy of you. Let alone the fact that Xiao Yan's talent has not been restored, even if he regained his past talent, what of it? Can Xiao Yan compare to a Dou Zong Expert? He's not even fit to carry the shoes of such a person," Yun Leng decided firmly.

If the Yun Lan Sect could have a Dou Zong Expert's protection in the future, even just as an honorary elder, it would greatly strengthen the sect's power.

"Disciple understands," Nalan Yanran affirmed with a blushing face.

Walking out of the great hall, Nalan Yanran was still in a daze, with the words of Great Elder Yun Leng vividly in her mind. The memory of Xu Ran saving her also replayed in her head.

"Big riffraff, philanderer," Nalan Yanran said to herself with coy arrogance.

Just the thought of Xu Ran saving her and his hands lingering over her body... those hands were too naughty... and when she told Xu Ran to let go, he actually did, which infuriated her.

Nalan Yanran thought, her pretty face covered in a sweet smile.

Suddenly, she remembered the special pill Xu Haoran had given her before leaving.

That pill must be extraordinary!

After all, it's an elixir from a Dou Zong Expert!

Nalan Yanran's heartbeat accelerated, and after returning to her boudoir, she took out the elixir and began to consume it for absorption.
