Signing In At Mount Sword For 100 Years To Become Invincible
Chapter 166 - 166 A Wise Emperess166 A Wise Emperess
Just as Lin Ran was feeling puzzled, the empress’s voice sounded in his mind again. “Lin Ran? Can you hear me?”
“Yes!”
Lin Ran immediately replied. Now, he was very sure that it was the empress’s voice!
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Hongshan pursed his lips in annoyance. “Why are you shouting again?”
“Nothing.”
Only then did Lin Ran remember that there was someone beside him. He replied in a low voice, “Your Majesty, I can hear you!”
After a few seconds, the empress’s voice sounded again. “Lin Ran! Lin Ran!”
“I can hear you! Go on!”
Lin Ran replied impatiently in a low voice. After saying that, he felt that something was wrong.
He had already replied three times, but the empress kept calling him, as if she could not hear his reply at all.
“Am I in an illusion too?”
Just as he thought this, the empress’s voice sounded again.
“I’m trying to contact you through a very dangerous method. I don’t know if you can hear me. If you can, give me a hint.”
Lin Ran was speechless. He looked up at the pitch-black crack in the dark sky and thought to himself, “How can I give you a hint? Leave here?”
After that, the empress repeated the same thing three times. After that, there was a long silence.
The silence made Lin Ran a little anxious. He didn’t know what “dangerous method” the empress was talking about, but she hadn’t spoken for so long. She had most likely given up on this method.
“How should I give you a hint…”
Lin Ran pursed his lips and fell into deep thought. At this moment, the whiteness in Liu Hongshan’s eyes had almost completely disappeared. He didn’t have much time left.
Anxious, Lin Ran’s mind began to race. After a moment, his eyes suddenly lit up. “I know what to do!”
…
In the imperial study in the palace.
The light emitted by the green jade hairpin made the entire imperial study green.
The empress sat on the chair with her palms pressed together. She frowned slightly, and there was a hint of anxiety on her face.
“Lin Ran! If you can hear me, give me a hint!”
Almost at the same time, she felt the small jade sword in her hand vibrate slightly.
The vibration of the small jade sword was very light, almost to the extent that it was difficult to feel. However, the empress was holding the small jade sword tightly, so she still caught the vibration immediately.
“Lin Ran! Is that you?”
The empress was delighted. “If it’s you, make it vibrate again!”
Buzz—
Feeling the vibration of the small jade sword, the empress finally felt relieved. “That’s great! I’ve finally contacted you… Where are you? Are you still safe? When are you coming back?”
…
In the secret place of the Hundred Fragrance Palace.
When Lin Ran realized that the empress could receive his hint, he couldn’t help but admire his intelligence.
This idea was thought of by him. As for whether it would succeed, he was actually not too confident.
However, since the empress could accurately find his location, she definitely had something that was directly related to him. It was most likely the sword intent he had scattered elsewhere.
Therefore, Lin Ran began to try to control every wisp of sword intent he had scattered. God knew how much energy this process cost him, but fortunately, he still succeeded in the end.
However, because there was really not much sword intent in the small jade sword, coupled with the fact that it was too far away, controlling the sword intent from afar to cause a slight vibration was already Lin Ran’s limit.
Before Lin Ran could be happy for a while, the empress’s questions sounded in his mind.
Not only was the question spoken quickly, but it was also very loud. It was obvious that the empress was very excited at this moment, but Lin Ran was so annoyed that he almost woke up from his meditative state.
Lin Ran quickly took a deep breath to calm himself down. Only then did he start to feel speechless. He could only make the sword intent move a little even if he used all his strength. How could he answer so many questions?
…
In imperial study.
The empress waited for a long time but received no response. She also realized that her way of asking questions was a little inappropriate. After thinking for a moment, she asked again, “Are you safe now? If you’re safe, vibrate it once.”
Buzz—
The empress heaved a sigh of relief. After a pause, she asked, “Where are you now? Are you still in the capital?”
Buzz—
“Can you come back now?”
Buzz—buzz—
“Are you with Liu Hongshan?”
Buzz—
The empress’s expression turned solemn again. After a moment of silence, she continued, “The war between us and the Great Yong Dynasty has begun. I think you already know…”
In the next few minutes, the empress told Lin Ran everything that had happened in the past few days, including her inner thoughts and worries. As the emperor of a country, she couldn’t tell anyone this except Lin Ran.
A few minutes later.
The empress suddenly stopped. After a moment of silence, she continued with a firm attitude, “It’s quarter to five now. In four hours, I’m preparing to sneak out of the palace and go to the front line. I want to personally lead the troops to attack the Great Yong encampment at night!”
Buzz—buzz—
The small jade sword vibrated twice. Half a second later, it vibrated twice more.
The empress understood what Lin Ran meant, but she didn’t care. She paused for a moment and continued, “I’ve drafted a will. If I can’t come back this time, I’ll confer you the title of Regent. After your sons are born, you can choose a wise one to succeed the throne!”
“Lord Lin, I believe that you have the ability to bring the Heavenly Saint Dynasty back to its former glory. This is my last request.”
After saying the last sentence, the empress opened her eyes. She first took off the hairpin on her head and placed it into the brocade box. Then, she grabbed the small jade sword with both hands and suddenly broke it into two!
…
In the secret place of the Hundred Fragrance Palace.
Sensing that trace of sword intent dissipating, Lin Ran’s expression instantly turned extremely ugly!
“Four hours!”
Lin Ran set a countdown in his heart. With something so unexpected happening, he couldn’t waste any time with Liu Hongshan anymore. After leaving the meditative state, he prepared to immediately activate his internal energy and leave.
The Great Yong Dynasty had already made ample preparations to start a war this time. If there was no corresponding strategy, the empress would definitely not be able to return!
Feeling anxious, Lin Ran opened his eyes and was about to move when he realized that Liu Hongshan had already regained consciousness. The whiteness in his eyes had completely dissipated. At this moment, he was holding the Dragon Roar Dagger and staring at him with a scrutinizing gaze.
