Chapter 180 - 180 Returning to the Wooden House



Lin Ran couldn’t help but shout. The ominous feeling was so strong that his back broke out in cold sweat!

“What happened?”

Huo Qiyun’s voice came from the depths of the cave. At this moment, his vision was completely swallowed by the darkness. His voice was distorted by the reflection of the cave, but one could still hear the confusion in his voice.

“I feel that something is wrong.”

!!

Lin Ran suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and said as calmly as possible, “This solution might not be as safe as we think. Let’s think about another one.”

“What’s not safe? Haven’t we already been to Sword Grave?”

Huo Qiyun chuckled and took a few steps towards the light outside. “When did you become so wishy-washy? Are you scared out of your wits by Liu Hongshan?”

“I—”

Lin Ran was speechless. Of course, he wasn’t scared out of his wits by Liu Hongshan, but he couldn’t deny what Huo Qiyun said. Ever since he came out of the secret place, he could clearly feel that he was being too cautious.

“Could it be that the array formation in the secret place can also affect one’s personality?”

Lin Ran suddenly had this absurd thought, but he knew that it was impossible.

After coming back to his senses, Lin Ran took a deep breath and said seriously, “I really feel that something’s wrong. Why don’t I go in with you first? I’ll come out after confirming that there’s no problem.”

As he spoke, Lin Ran was about to enter the cave when he heard Huo Qiyun say impatiently, “Can you stop dawdling? Sister Empress must have changed her clothes. Hurry up and go back to find her!”

Lin Ran stopped in his tracks. They had been gone for almost fifteen minutes. The empress should indeed have changed her clothes.

“I can handle this myself. I’m not a child anymore!”

Hearing this, Lin Ran couldn’t help but laugh. On second thought, he realized that he might have really been unnecessarily cautious.

Lin Ran had also been to Sword Grave. There were three main dangers:

One of them was the black insects, but their greatest threat was to give people rashes. It was far from fatal.

The second was the violent sword intent and killing intent that filled it. However, as long as Huo Qiyun stayed focused, with his cultivation, it wouldn’t be a problem for him to last for a few months.

The last and most realistic problem was that there was no food or water inside. Although martial artists could abstain from eating after reaching a certain realm, no one was willing to starve.

“Then be careful! I’ll come to deliver food to you every three days!”

Lin Ran shouted into the depths of the cave, causing a rumbling echo. It was unknown if Huo Qiyun could still hear him clearly.

Then, Lin Ran held the Ten Miles Dragon Roar and sealed the entrance to Sword Grave. Because he didn’t know where Huo Qiyun was, he only sealed the entrance to prevent anyone from entering by mistake.

After taking one last look at the rough mountain wall, Lin Ran rode his sword and soared down the mountain. At this moment, he still didn’t know what danger Huo Qiyun and Xiao Huai would be in. Otherwise, he would have rushed in without hesitation.

Let’s not talk about the future for now.

Now that Lin Ran had mastered Sword Flight, he arrived at the wooden house at the foot of the mountain in the blink of an eye.

The empress stood in the empty space outside the wooden house. She had already taken off her mask and changed the guard commander’s clothes into a black robe.

The sleeves and lapels were embroidered with red and gold five-clawed dragon patterns. Although it was not as luxurious as the dragon robe, it accentuated the empress’s valiant aura.

From the footprints on the muddy ground, the empress had clearly been pacing back and forth anxiously here for a long time.

As soon as Lin Ran landed on the ground, the empress immediately asked in confusion, “Why are you the only one back? Where’s Qiyun? Where’s Xiao Huai? Didn’t you find her?”

“I found her, but Xiao Huai is injured. Huo Qiyun has to stay behind to take care of her.”

Lin Ran deliberately pretended to be relaxed. The empress had enough to worry about. There was no need to worry her with such a thing.

“It’s good that you found her.”

The empress heaved a sigh of relief and didn’t suspect anything. Then, she raised a hand to cover her mouth and nose and frowned at Lin Ran. “There’s water inside. Do you want to wash yourself? After all, you’re a general now. It’s inappropriate to look so…”

Lin Ran looked down at his dirty body and blushed. He said, “Wait a moment.” Then, he quickly rushed into the wooden house.

A moment later, when Lin Ran came out again, he had already washed up. However, he didn’t bring a change of clothes, so he could only find a mountain guardian robe from the cabinet to change into.

Seeing Lin Ran’s new outfit, the empress couldn’t help but chuckle. “I didn’t expect to see you wearing this after so long… I think it looks quite good on you. Since Mount Sword is unguarded now, why don’t I transfer you back?”

Lin Ran knew that the empress was joking, so he played along. “I don’t mind. As long as you feel safe without my protection.”

The empress chuckled and didn’t reply. Lin Ran suddenly thought of something and said seriously, “By the way, if you can’t find someone to guard Mount Sword, I have a good candidate.”

“Who?”

“Hong Liquan.”

“The winner of the Martial Arts Examination this year?”

When the empress heard this, she frowned. “I remember that he has already joined the Five Elements Imperial Guards, right? Why do you want him to guard Mount Sword?”

“I got to know him when I was captured.”

Lin Ran then said, not mentioning that he and Huo Qiyun had caused trouble in Lotus Town. “He’s in charge of interrogation in the Water Guards now, but he doesn’t seem to like that job very much.”

Previously, when he was in the nameless house in Lotus Town, Lin Ran remembered that Hong Liquan had told him that he would rather be sent to Mount Sword to be a mountain guardian than stay in the Five Elements Imperial Guards for the rest of his life.

As for whether Hong Liquan was telling the truth or not, Lin Ran actually didn’t know. However, the final decision was still in the empress’s hands. He was just making a suggestion.

Lin Ran raised his hand and summoned the Yin-Yang Sword. Then, he reached out his right hand to the empress. “Let’s go! I’ll take you to the front line!”
