210 People Are Unfathomable

Second level, third level, fourth level of Grandmaster realm …

Soon, Lin Ran’s aura reached the sixth level of the Grandmaster Realm, which was the same as the young man’s. However, this increase did not stop there. Instead, he continued to advance quickly to a higher level!

Finally, when he reached the ninth level of the Grandmaster Realm, Lin Ran’s aura began to stabilize.

The young man silently watched as Lin Ran’s cultivation level exceeded his. There was no fear on his face, but his forehead was already starting to sweat.

“Ninth level of Grandmaster Realm…”

After Lin Ran’s aura stabilized, the young man muttered thoughtfully, then his eyes revealed fighting spirit, “Even so, you’re not my match! Our Great Yong…”

“Are close to nature!”

Lin Ran interrupted him with an indifferent expression. “I know. Someone reminded me not to get close to you while fighting.”

The young man was stunned for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal. “Then you should know that even if your realm is a little higher than mine, you can’t keep up with my speed!”

With that, the young man’s figure suddenly turned into a white shadow and began to flicker in every place of the sword energy cage!

“Sigh… My realm is not just a little higher than yours.”

Lin Ran sighed helplessly and pointed the Yin-Yang Sword in his hand at the sky. In an instant, the entire sword energy cage began to shrink!

In the blink of an eye, the sword energy cage that covered an area of more than a hundred steps shrank to less than ten steps. In the impenetrable cage, all the air was compressed ten times and began to get sticky!

With a thud, the young man, who was still flying like a shadow a second ago, fell to the ground. His cultivation technique was to use the power of the wind to increase his speed, but due to the sticky air, there was no longer any wind.

“What’s going on?”

The young man lay on the ground and shouted through gritted teeth. There was nothing on his body, but he felt like there were invisible mountains pressing down on every inch of his skin!

“Because of scientific reasoning.”

Lin Ran smiled. After hearing Zou Hao’s reminder, he had been thinking of a way to limit the speed of the martial artists of the Great Yong Dynasty and came up with the method of using the sword energy cage to condense the air.

As he spoke, Lin Ran walked to the young man’s side. As he moved, the sticky air caused ripples that could be seen with the naked eye.

“I ask, you answer.”

Lin Ran sat on the ground beside the young man and placed the Yin-Yang Sword casually on his neck. “If you dare to lie to me or refuse to answer, you should know the consequences.”

“In your dreams!”

The young man shouted coldly and did not even look at the Yin-Yang Sword on his neck. “You made such a big commotion and will quickly attract the others. So what if you can trap me? Can you trap hundreds of Grandmasters at the same time?!”

“What’s the commotion?”

Lin Ran looked at the millions of surging sword energy around him in confusion. “Are you talking about this? I only used less than a tenth of my strength. No one will notice.”

The young man’s face turned pale. “That’s impossible! How can a ninth level Grandmaster have such strength!”

“As I said, it’s you who said that I’m a ninth level Grandmaster, but I didn’t.”

Lin Ran shrugged and patted the young man twice. “Can you answer my question now?”

For the first time, a panicked expression appeared on the young man’s face, but he still shook his head with a firm gaze. “I won’t say anything! Those commoners are all unafraid of death for the Great Yong Dynasty. As a sixth level Grandmaster, how can I be a coward?”

“Commoner?”

Lin Ran frowned. “What commoner?”

Only then did the young man realize that he had said something he shouldn’t. After a moment, he turned his head away and stopped looking at Lin Ran.

Seeing how uncooperative the other party was, Lin Ran couldn’t help but sigh. “I wanted to go easy on you, but you don’t appreciate it. Then don’t blame me for being ruthless!”

In a house in Nanjiang Town.

The empress and Liu Ruxi sat facing each other. Although the atmosphere was still a little awkward, it was much more eased than before.

“Wan’er, you must stop investigating!”

Liu Ruxi persuaded earnestly with an anxious expression. “Later, I’ll send two first level Grandmasters to send you two out of the town to execute you in secret. Tell your guard to kill them while you are out of town and return to the Heavenly Saint as soon as possible!”

“Impossible.”

The empress replied expressionlessly and coldly, “If you want me to go back, let me know what you’re doing. Otherwise, don’t even think about it!”

Liu Ruxi sighed with a conflicted expression. “Wan’er… stop asking. I really can’t tell you.”

Tears suddenly welled up in the corners of the empress’s eyes. “Why? I’m your daughter! Don’t you even trust me?”

“It’s not that I don’t trust you, but…”

Liu Ruxi seemed to want to explain, but for some reason, she did not continue.

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded outside the door. “Because she feels that what she is doing is immoral and doesn’t want you to be disappointed with her.”

When Liu Ruxi heard this, her expression changed drastically. Then, the door opened and Lin Ran walked in with a dark expression.

“Lin Ran?”

When the empress saw the person who came, she frowned slightly. “What did you mean just now? What do you mean by immoral?”

Lin Ran didn’t answer. He went straight to Liu Ruxi and gritted his teeth to suppress his anger. “How can you do this?”

Liu Ruxi looked down at the table as if she did not hear him. After more than ten seconds, she asked softly, “How did you know?”

“Someone kind-hearted told me this.”

Lin Ran replied casually, his eyes filled with disappointment. “As the empress dowager of the Heavenly Saint Dynasty, did you betray your country and family just to do this?”

“Right.”

Liu Ruxi nodded and looked at Lin Ran with a pleading gaze. “Can I talk to you alone?”

Lin Ran looked at the empress. “Get out first.”

The empress was stunned. “Lin Ran, what do you mean? I’m the emperor of the Heavenly Saint Dynasty! This matter is related to the Heavenly Saint Dynasty, so I have the right to know!”

“We are in the Great Yong Dynasty.”

Lin Ran replied coldly without looking at the angry empress. “I’m showing you respect by asking you to go out. Otherwise, I’ll have to knock you out.”

If anyone else said this, the empress would definitely fly into a rage. However, Lin Ran was different. She knew that this guy would definitely do what he said.

After hesitating for a moment, the empress stood up and walked towards the door. However, on the chair she had sat on previously, she left a jade slip emitting a faint fluorescent light…
