Starting from Douluo to Capture Goddesses

"If you don't want it, that's fine, but I'm not as rich as you." Xiao Yi Xian stuffed the scroll into her sleeve. Her originally slender figure looked somewhat strange and much plumper, due to hiding too many things.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Xiao Yi Xian said, slightly embarrassed by Xu Ran's gaze and glaring back with her big eyes.

"Without a Storage Ring, it's really inconvenient," Xu Ran observed, glancing at Xiao Yi Xian's chest. The clothes that fit well before were now stretched wide after being stuffed, revealing a bit of extra charm. Xiao Yi Xian was shorter than Xu Ran, and with Xu Ran being so close, he had an unobstructed view.

"Do you think Space Rings are as common as cabbages, something you can just have if you want it? Even the large clans might not have such magical items." Xiao Yi Xian pursed her lips. She had only heard of these miraculous items and had never seen one. In Qing Shan Town, none of the people from the three major Mercenary Groups or the Thousand Medicine Pavilion had a Storage Ring.

In her view, only those super-powerful individuals or clans with deep foundations would possess such things.

"You don't happen to have a Storage Ring, do you?" Xiao Yi Xian asked, tilting her head as she looked at Xu Ran. Xu Ran was so mysterious that he might actually have one.

"If you have something like that, you should bring it out quickly so I can put all these things in it; I'm dead tired." Carrying so many items naturally made Xiao Yi Xian uncomfortable, especially since her clothes were stretched out.

However, there were so many items here that she couldn't possibly carry them all by herself, especially the medicinal ingredients.

"Here you go." Xu Ran took out a Storage Ring from his chest.

"Is this really a Storage Ring? It doesn't look much different from an ordinary ring?" Xiao Yi Xian couldn't help asking. At that moment, as Xu Ran held the shiny ring, she couldn't stop her mind from wandering.

This ring, seemingly made entirely of crystal, looked extremely beautiful and captured Xiao Yi Xian's heart at once.

"What did you expect? If it didn't look like a regular ring, wouldn't that just tell others it's a storage ring and attract covetous hearts?" In fact, these spatial treasures were all made to look like ordinary jewelry.

"Oh, I see." Xiao Yi Xian had a sudden realization. A space treasure that could store items would surely arouse the greed of countless people if it were recognized.

"Does it look nice?" Xu Ran offered the ring to Xiao Yi Xian.

"It's beautiful," Xiao Yi Xian said earnestly. Under the Darkness's light, the crystal of the ring refracted a lovely glow. It was already night, and in the daylight, under the sun's rays, it would surely be even more dazzling.

"Then from now on, this ring is yours. Consider it a gift from me," Xu Ran said, taking Xiao Yi Xian's hand and slipping the ring onto her delicate finger.

"You're giving me a ring?"

Xiao Yi Xian suddenly froze, her body trembling slightly as warmth flowed through her heart, and she felt a bit shy.

Did Xu Ran know what he was doing? Could rings just be given to someone so casually?

Girls shouldn't just accept rings from others! Rings are different from other things; a girl can only receive one in her lifetime. If she accepted Xu Ran's ring, how would she ever be able to marry someone else?

"Why did you give me a ring?"

"Girls shouldn't just accept rings. If I accept it, how can I marry someone else in the future?" Xiao Yi Xian said in a low voice, adoring the pink ring on her finger.

"Marry someone else? Who else do you want to marry? You won't escape from my palms for the rest of your life. You can only marry me. From now on, if anyone dares to bother you, I'll kill them."

"You're really overbearing, you know. I haven't even said I'd marry you!" Xiao Yi Xian muttered, lifting her leg to gently kick Xu Ran. Xu Ran is just too arrogant, if he really did that, who else would dare pursue her?

With Xu Ran being so formidable, just a word from him in Qing Shan Town would deter anyone from having designs on her. After all, Xu Ran is a noble Alchemist.

"I don't care, you don't have a choice," Xu Ran said as he smoothly wrapped his arms around Xiao Yi Xian's slender waist.

"Hmph. I didn't agree to this," Xiao Yi Xian stuck out her tongue, but instead of trying to escape, she settled into his embrace, enjoying the quiet and sweet sensation.

"This ring's space is so huge." Xiao Yi Xian's consciousness probed into the Storage Ring, and she was immediately stunned. The space inside was so vast she couldn't begin to estimate its size. She had heard that even when ordinary people possess a Storage Ring, it wouldn't be very large.

"What's so surprising about that? This Storage Ring can even hold living creatures. If you put those herbs inside, they will retain their vitality," Xu Ran said, pulling out the item nonchalantly. What did he ever take out that was ordinary?

"That's amazing?" Xiao Yi Xian was completely dumbfounded. She had never heard of such a miraculous thing that could contain living things. Even though she wasn't from a great family and lacked certain knowledge, even she knew the value of this ring was beyond measure.

If it were to be auctioned, it would likely fetch an astronomical price!

In the past, she only heard of Storage Rings that could hold inanimate objects, never one that could store living things.

If word got out, even sects like the Yunlan Sect would surely be tempted.

"This ring is too precious, I can't accept it," Xiao Yi Xian quickly said. At the same time, she was also touched; she hadn't expected that Xu Ran would be willing to give her something so valuable, which began to unlock the tight bounds around her heart.

"In my heart, you are a treasure beyond price. What are these things in comparison? Even if you wanted the stars and the moon in the sky, I would try my best to pluck them for you," Xu Ran said, embracing Xiao Yi Xian's delicate body and taking the opportunity...

Xiao Yi Xian naturally detected Xu Ran's movements, but at this point, she too succumbed to him, albeit with some reservation.

If Xu Ran treated her wholeheartedly, how could she let him down?

"Hehe. I was wondering where you two had gone. So you were here mingling," a voice teased.

"Such a tender scene between lovers!"

From the pitch-black stone doorway, more than ten shadows slowly emerged from the darkness outside, eventually sealing off the stone door completely.

A figure walked out from behind, and under the illumination of the Moonlight Stone, his face was revealed. It was none other than Mu Li, the young leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Corps!

His gaze first swept over the heaps of golden Gold Coins inside the room, a flash of greed apparent in his eyes. Licking his lips, his eyes then darted to the Storage Ring on Xiao Yi Xian's hand, and he could not help saying greedily, "Sorry to disturb you two."

"Mu Li. How did you get here?" Seeing Mu Li and the others from the Wolf Head Mercenary Corps, Xiao Yi Xian's expression changed slightly. She hadn't expected the people from the Wolf Head Mercenary Corps to have found them.

"Xiao Yi Xian, there are so many treasures here, and you thought to keep them all to yourself? That's not very honorable!" Mu Li said with a wicked laugh, visibly excited by everything he saw in the cave.

Clearly, the things in the cave exceeded his expectations.
