Signing In At Mount Sword For 100 Years To Become Invincible

126 See with New Eyes

Faced with Lin Ran’s continuous questioning, even Xiao Huai, who was not afraid of death, finally revealed a panicked expression.

“No, you’re lying to me! He healed me… He did it for my own good… He won’t use me…”

Xiao Huai covered her ears and shook her head crazily to deny everything Lin Ran said.

However, her voice became softer and softer. In the face of so much hard evidence, she finally couldn’t convince herself.

Lin Ran just watched quietly. When Xiao Huai fell silent, he sighed and said softly, “I’ve already said what needs to be said. I’ll give you ten minutes to think about what to do.”

With that, Lin Ran turned around and retreated to the wall before quietly passing the solid stone wall.

Xiao Huai stared at the stone wall for a while with her big black eyes before turning to the Sacred Abyss Sword on the wall beside her. She hugged her knees and sat on the ground, burying her face in her arms.

No one could see Xiao Huai’s expression at this moment, but because she was gripping the rattle drum too hard, her joints were already slightly pale, indicating that she was in a dilemma.

At the same time, in the secret passage.

Huo Qiyun was also sitting on the ground. He frowned and stared at the stone wall in front of him, still wondering how Lin Ran had passed through it.

At this moment, ripples suddenly appeared on the stone wall. Lin Ran walked out of the stone wall casually.

Huo Qiyun was shocked and hurriedly went forward to check the stone wall, but he still didn’t find anything. He could only cover his face and look at Lin Ran. “Can I ask you something?”

When Lin Ran saw Huo Qiyun covering his face, he couldn’t help but laugh. “You want to ask me how to pass through the wall, right? There’s an array formation on the stone wall. This secret passage leads to Mount Sword.”

“This is the way out of the palace for the royal family in times of danger. Therefore, only the current emperor knows about the existence of the stone room… Don’t ask me how I know. If you’re really curious, go back and ask your Sister Empress.”

Huo Qiyun could only shut his mouth. After a few seconds, he asked again, “By the way, how’s the situation on the other end? Did you get rid of the demon?”

“Not yet.”

Lin Ran shook his head. “She was just used by someone. Not only is there no point in killing her, but it will also make it harder to catch the mastermind. That’s why I gave her ten minutes to consider if she wants to help me.”

“Used by someone? Mastermind? To help you?”

Huo Qiyun repeated a few key points, his face filled with the words “I don’t understand”.

Lin Ran didn’t want to explain at first because at this point, everything was only based on his guess. He hadn’t found any concrete evidence yet.

However, on second thought, since he had nothing to do now, and he might need Huo Qiyun’s help later, he explained his guess about Dragon Elephant Divine Master being the mastermind in detail.

It took three minutes to finish the story, but only after a full five minutes did Huo Qiyun come back to his senses and carefully ask, “So you mean that Grandpa Sword God was not killed by the demon but by Elephant?”

“It’s Dragon Elephant Divine Master.”

Lin Ran corrected him and raised his chin in the direction of the stone room. “Actually, it’s not difficult to understand. Think about it carefully. Is Xiao Huai a match for Sword God?”

“That makes sense…”

Huo Qiyun subconsciously nodded. Then, he immediately thought of something. “But isn’t it a little too ridiculous? In the past sixty years, someone has been working on a conspiracy, but we didn’t notice it at all… Are we all fools?”

“You’re worse than a fool! At least a fool knows how to follow a plan.”

Lin Ran cursed in his heart, but he put on a serious expression. “So after we get out, I’m going to take you to Mount Sword again. I think there’s something wrong with that letter.”

“What’s wrong?”

Huo Qiyun looked puzzled. “Didn’t you see it with your own eyes… Are you lying to me again?!”

“I did see it with my own eyes.”

Lin Ran rolled his eyes, then frowned slightly and said seriously, “At that time, the letter was beside Sword God’s remains, so I took it for granted that it must be left behind by Sword God. However, I’ve never seen Sword God’s handwriting, so I can’t be sure. That’s why I need you to look at it.”

Huo Qiyun nodded, but the confusion on his face did not subside. “But didn’t you say that Grandpa Sword God wrote in the letter that he wanted you to protect Sister Empress? If the letter wasn’t left behind by Grandpa Sword God, why would the person want you to protect Sister Empress.?

“I don’t know either. Anyway, let’s go and take a look first.”

Lin Ran waved his hand tiredly. He had used his brain too much today and really didn’t want to think about anything else.

Huo Qiyun was about to continue asking when Lin Ran reached out and pulled Huo Qiyun to the side. Then, he went through the wall and entered the stone room.

“Have you considered it?”

As Lin Ran spoke, he quickly walked forward. When he stood in front of Xiao Huai, the Dark Insect Sword in his hand took shape.

Xiao Huai slowly raised her head, her big black eyes filled with tears. “If I help you, can you promise me something?”

“What is it?”

“Don’t kill him.”

Xiao Huai said seriously, “I’ve thought about it. If he didn’t show mercy back then, I might have died long ago. Therefore, even if he really used me, I hope you can keep him alive.”

Lin Ran didn’t answer immediately because he hadn’t thought of how to deal with Liu Hongshan. Speaking of which, he wasn’t even sure if this person really existed.

All of Lin Ran’s guess about Liu Hongshan was based on Xiao Huai’s narration.

This demon had deceived Lin Ran once in the Eight Directional Mountain and almost caused a disaster when she sneaked into the palace. Who could guarantee that she was telling the truth this time? Anyway, Lin Ran was not confident.

Thinking of this, Lin Ran’s heart skipped a beat.

That’s right. What if Xiao Huai was lying to him this time as well?
