Signing In At Mount Sword For 100 Years To Become Invincible

195 Ransom
The white cloud fell to the ground.

“Lord Song…”

Li Tianyi said softly with a strange expression, “Am I hallucinating? Why did I see a cloud fall?”

“Eunuch Li, don’t worry. I don’t think you are hallucinating.”

Song Rentong subconsciously replied, “Because I saw it too.”

As the two of them spoke, the white cloud had already landed dozens of feet above the ground. Then, it quietly floated towards the imperial study. Li Tianyi and Song Rentong just stared blankly, forgetting to call for the guards.

A moment later, the white cloud landed on the arch of the courtyard of the imperial study. The surging cloud gradually calmed down, and a slightly thin figure gradually appeared.

It was a young man in his early twenties standing at the arch. If not for his sinister expression, he would have looked like a weak scholar.

At this moment, Li Tianyi finally realized the danger. However, just as he was about to call the guards, his neck seemed to be grabbed by an invisible hand and he could not make a sound!

“Shh—”

The scholar stretched out a slender finger and put it to his lips. At the same time, a faint and extremely cold pressure rippled from the scholar’s body.

Li Tianyi and Song Rentong instantly felt goosebumps all over their bodies, as if countless cold vipers were slowly squirming on their bodies!

Plop!

Li Tianyi’s legs went weak and he collapsed to the ground. Then, Song Rentong, who was at the Martial Master Realm, sat down weakly.

The two of them looked at the scholar in horror. The sunlight shone on his white robe, as if it was coated with a layer of holy light. However, to the two of them in the courtyard, this scholar was simply more terrifying than a demon that had crawled out of hell!

“You don’t need to know who I am.” The scholar spoke softly.

“All you need to know is that your emperor is in the hands of the Great Yong Dynasty. If you want to keep him safe, get the Northern Garrison to retreat 300 miles and hand over 15 cities as ransom.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the scholar’s sinister gaze landed on Song Rentong. “You should be a high-ranking official. I’ll leave this matter to you. How about that?”

After all, Song Rentong was the Grand Secretary of the Heavenly Saint Dynasty. When he first saw this scholar, he was overwhelmed by fear, but at this moment, he had basically calmed down.

Hearing this, Song Rentong’s expression darkened. He stared at the white-robed scholar and asked coldly, “Who are you? How dare you talk nonsense here? Do you know what crime you are committing?”

“I’m from the Great Yong Dynasty. The rules of the Heavenly Saint Dynasty don’t apply to me.” The scholar replied patiently.

“How dare you!”

Song Rentong roared fiercely. Under the pressure of the scholar, he forced himself up!

“Eh?”

A hint of surprise flashed across the scholar’s eyes, as if he had seen something unbelievable. However, this surprise quickly disappeared and was replaced by a faint disdain.

Under Li Tianyi’s shocked gaze, Song Rentong glared at the scholar and slowly stood up. However, this simple movement put a huge burden on him.

He felt as if he was carrying a mountain on his shoulders. All his bones and muscles were groaning in pain. A few veins popped out on his forehead like vipers, but he gritted his teeth to endure it and stood up straight.

“The palace of the Heavenly Saint Dynasty is not a place where you can come and go at will!”

Song Rentong let out a furious roar through gritted teeth, his eyes already bloodshot. “Where are the imperial guards! Kill this criminal together with me!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the ground under Song Rentong’s feet exploded, and he shot up like a cannonball!

Almost instantly, Song Rentong jumped onto the arch, but there was still a faint smile on the scholar’s face, as if he did not notice the danger approaching.

Clang!

A cold light shot out from Song Rentong’s waist and swept across the scholar’s chest.

It was so fast and powerful that it even left a faint black mark in the air, as if this sword had cut open the air!

In the courtyard, Li Tianyi’s face was filled with shock. He did not expect the new Grand Secretary to be so powerful. The scholar’s slightly thin figure was split into two. Through the gap in the middle, he could even see the blue sky in the distance!

Before Li Tianyi could cheer, Song Rentong, who was on the arch, swayed a few times and fell to the ground, as if this strike had exhausted all his strength.

“Lord Song!”

Li Tianyi exclaimed and was about to step forward when he suddenly heard a soft sigh. “What an arrogant fellow. How can a mortal like you hurt the cloud?”

The voice came from the arch. Although it was very soft, Li Tianyi could still hear it clearly.

At the thought of something, Li Tian raised his head in shock and saw that the scholar was still standing on the arch. His split body was pieced together by the cloud, and he returned to normal!

At the same time, the palace guards who heard the shout finally arrived, and thousands of sword energy swept out.

Boom!

A deafening bang echoed through the palace, and the arch instantly turned into ruins.

Dust billowed up, but when the dust was blown away by the wind, the white-robed scholar was still standing in the air unscathed.

Looking at the dumbfounded people below, the scholar shrugged innocently, as if to say, “Look, I told you that you can’t hurt me.”

The air was instantly filled with dead silence. Under the solemn atmosphere, even the dust seemed to have stopped moving.

“Don’t waste your time.”

The scholar said with a smile, not hiding the contempt in his tone. His sinister gaze glanced at the imperial study not far away. “I’m just here to deliver a message. If you don’t believe me, why don’t you go in to confirm if your emperor is still around?”

Li Tianyi’s expression changed slightly when he heard this. Just now, Song Rentong dared to attack decisively because he did not believe that the scholar had the ability to abduct the emperor.

Li Tianyi actually did not believe it either because he had been guarding outside the imperial study for the past two days. If someone sneaked in and kidnapped the emperor, even if he could not stop it, he would have noticed it, right?

However, now that he saw the strength of this white-robed scholar, Li Tianyi could not help but have a bad feeling. He hurriedly turned around and ran into the imperial study. Without caring about the etiquette, he knocked open the door and rushed in!

With just a glance, Li Tianyi dropped to the ground as if his bones had been removed. The guards did not follow, but when they saw his reaction, they understood. For a moment, their expressions were extremely dark!

A heavy atmosphere filled the air. In the air, the corners of the white-robed scholar’s mouth slowly curled into a sly smile.

“Hand over 15 cities and retreat 300 miles.”

As soon as the white-robed scholar finished speaking, his figure disappeared like a cloud.
