"Little Ran, you’ve caused trouble..."

Before they even reached the nutrition cabin, Li Wan’er couldn’t wait and blurted out, but before she finished, Lin Yuting gestured her to stop.

"?"

Su Ran was filled with question marks, completely baffled by what these two women were up to.

Could it be...

Because of the Gods and Demons’ order?

But he obtained it fair and square, where does the trouble talk come from?

Keep a low profile?

If that’s the reason, then it’s even more unnecessary, acquiring the Gods and Demons’ order must be publicly announced, whether anonymously or not, the blame would still fall on him, running away won’t solve the problem, he can only face it.

"Uh huh, okay, I’ll give him the phone now..."

Lin Yuting handed the phone to Su Ran and whispered, "It’s my dad, about the Gods and Demons’ order..."

Sure enough.

It was indeed because of this Gods and Demons’ order.

Su Ran didn’t rush to take the phone, showing a thoughtful expression.

Even Father Lin had to set aside his pride to personally inquire, which meant one thing, the Gods and Demons’ order was far more significant than he imagined, it must hold a great secret!

After all, this Gods and Demons’ order is an even higher level supreme treasure than the Dream Seeking Mirror!

He took a deep breath and took the phone.

"Hello, Uncle, this is Su Ran."

"Congratulations, you got the only Gods and Demons’ order in the game."

Father Lin first congratulated him, then got straight to the point, "Let’s skip the pleasantries, I want that token, name your price."

Uh.

Su Ran didn’t expect Father Lin to be so direct, which stumped the line he had prepared.

"Uncle, could you tell me, what exactly is the secret of this Gods and Demons’ order?"

This was what Su Ran wanted to know, he’d examined the properties of the Gods and Demons’ order, and it only had one line, ’possesses incredible abilities,’ leaving him clueless.

However, even if this Gods and Demons’ order has sky-reaching abilities, he’s not tempted, it’s the only chance to rescue his father, even if it offends this future father-in-law, he’s willing to risk!

"For things like this... the less you know, the better, otherwise, you’ll be dragged into unnecessary whirlpools, and even your family could be affected."

Father Lin’s voice turned somber, as if warning Su Ran not to have ideas about the Gods and Demons’ order.

"Got it."

Seeing that Father Lin didn’t want to reveal the ins and outs of the Gods and Demons’ order, Su Ran didn’t insist, knowing it could rescue his father was satisfying enough.

"Uncle, you might be disappointed, this token is bound, it won’t drop even if I die, no matter how much I want to give it to you, I can’t."

Su Ran casually lied, the token being the only one in the game, he says it’s bound, so it’s bound, believe it or not, whatever!

"What? It’s bound?"

Father Lin’s tone became a bit urgent, suspiciously asking, "You’re not lying to me?"

"Uncle, you’re my elder, how could I lie to you, if you don’t believe it, I’ll go take a screenshot in the game later, pictures don’t lie, right?"

Though Su Ran said so, he was a bit nervous, if Uncle Lin really demanded a screenshot, he’d just have to Photoshop one.

"If it’s bound, this gets complicated..."

Father Lin believed what Su Ran said, paused for a moment, then continued, "Little Ran, Uncle needs a favor from you, hoping you can help me accomplish it."

"Wha... um, I need to go to the bathroom, we can talk later."

Su Ran almost let it slip, quickly changed the subject, handed the phone to Lin Yuting, and hurriedly left the bedroom.

Little Black heard the commotion and sneaked out, holding a small bottle of nutrient solution in his mouth.

He had just finished drinking the nutrient solution, hadn’t even reached the bathroom, when Sister Wan’er caught up.

"Little Ran, you’re really driving me mad, why didn’t you choose to stay anonymous?"

Li Wan’er immediately started blaming, "You’ve underestimated the influence of the Gods and Demons’ order, many people in the game are trying to find your real address and contact information, trouble is about to knock on the door..."

"It’s already knocking."

Su Ran shrugged nonchalantly, "Sister Wan’er, there’s no helping it, the Ghost Clan was wiped out on my turf, even if I stayed anonymous, they could guess it’s me, don’t worry, we’ll tackle the challenges as they come."

"You have quite the big heart, get through Uncle Lin’s test first."

Seeing Su Ran not taking it seriously, Li Wan’er didn’t say more, turned around, and went back to Su Ran’s bedroom.

...

Su Ran sat on the toilet for more than twenty minutes, until his legs were numb, before coming out of the bathroom.

"Little Brother Su, your timing with that escape to the bathroom was perfect, as soon as the call ended, you came back,"

Lin Yuting looked at Su Ran with a playful smile, "You’re the first to dare leave my dad hanging for so long."

"Don’t say nonsense, I’ve got honest-to-goodness constipation, feel free to smell the bathroom, the aroma is authentic!"

Su Ran said casually, then cautiously glanced at the phone screen, lowered his voice, and asked, "The call really ended?"

"Well, duh, why would I lie!"

Lin Yuting shot Su Ran a glance and asked curiously, "What did my dad say? What favor does he want from you?"

"Still about the Gods and Demons’ order, Sister Ting, do you know what special effects this Gods and Demons’ order has?"

"You don’t know?"

Lin Yuting was slightly surprised, then immediately understood, "You entered the game a year late, so not knowing is normal, when the game first started, there was a leaked internal game guide, containing Gods and Demons’ order, Dream Seeking Mirror, the Top Ten Ancient Jewels, Divine Wish Stone and so on, but only the Gods and Demons’ order is worthy of being called a supreme treasure."

"Sister Ting, is it appropriate to tell Little Ran about these things?"

Beside her, Li Wan’er hesitantly interrupted Lin Yuting, "That guide shouldn’t be real, the officials already debunked it."

"The debunk was just a way to mislead players, you should know better than me, besides, my dad’s concern about the Gods and Demons’ order is enough to prove the authenticity of that guide."

Lin Yuting looked at Li Wan’er, speaking calmly, "Little Brother Su got the Gods and Demons’ order, he has the right to know."

"But, this is like Pandora’s box, it might bring significant psychological pressure to Little Ran."

"Sister Wan’er, it’s just a game, no need to make it so serious, right?"

Seeing Sister Wan’er hesitating like this, Su Ran became even more curious about the Gods and Demons’ order, eagerly hoping Sister Ting could tell him the truth to satisfy his curiosity.

"Alas, I hope you can control yourself and not be blinded by greed."

Li Wan’er sighed, "If the Gods and Demons’ order didn’t really exist, I wouldn’t have taken that guide seriously, but now, maybe I was too naive."
