Signing In At Mount Sword For 100 Years To Become Invincible - Chapter 149

149 Double Agent

In the secret room of the Hidden Sword Pavilion in the palace.

Lin Ran hesitated for a long time, but in the end, he didn’t dare to do it.

The Sacred Abyss Sword was too important. It was not worth it to risk breaking the Sacred Abyss Sword for Liu Hongshan.

“I should return to Mount Sword when I have time.”

Lin Ran muttered softly, then sat on the ground and began to think. If he couldn’t rely on the quality of the sword, then he could only rely on the quantity of the sword.

!!
If ordinary martial artists damaged their swords in battle, they would most likely die. However, Lin Ran was different. The Divine Sword Technique Manual he obtained from the system could allow him to store divine swords and take them out when needed.

When Lin Ran first obtained the Divine Sword Technique Manual, there were only three storage slots. Later on, as his cultivation continued to increase, the number of storage slots gradually increased to ten. Including the sword he carried with him, he could have ten swords at the same time.

Lin Ran began to check the divine swords he had in the Divine Sword Technique Manual.

Army Breaker, Thunderball, and Star Splitter.

Lin Ran had found these three swords in the secret room. All of their previous owners had made great contributions.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Ran put the Army Breaker Sword and Thunderball Sword into the Divine Sword Technique Manual and left the Star Splitter Sword behind.

It was not only because Star Splitter was damaged, but also because its body was slender and looked very fragile.

Then, Lin Ran walked around the secret room and found three more divine swords. He put them into the Divine Sword Technique Manual with the Yin-Yang Sword.

The strength of these three swords was about the same as the Yin-Yang Sword. They should be able to last for a while as backup swords.

“Five more slots.”

Lin Ran thought to himself. He took one last look at the Sacred Abyss Sword on the wall and left without looking back.

After closing the secret room, Lin Ran flew up the stone staircase and returned to the Hidden Sword Pavilion. Just as he was about to pull out the Ten Miles Dragon Roar and leave, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.

After looking around for a moment, Lin Ran’s expression suddenly changed.

In the corner closest to the entrance of the secret room, a white-robed young man was sitting on the ground with his eyes closed, as if he was in a deep sleep. Although his posture looked uncomfortable, there was a satisfied look on his face.

“Huo Qiyun?!”

Lin Ran couldn’t help but exclaim. To him, seeing Huo Qiyun here was even more shocking than seeing Liu Hongshan!

Huo Qiyun rolled his eyes and said angrily, “Why are you shouting? Are you going to let me sleep or not? You don’t look like a master at all!”

“Then tell me, what does a master look like?”

Lin Ran asked back with a bright smile. “Why are you back? Where’s Xiao Huai? Isn’t she with you?”

“She’s with Liu Hongshan.”

As Huo Qiyun spoke, he slowly stood up with his hand on the wall. He looked very tired.

Lin Ran hurriedly took a few steps forward to help him up, but just as he reached out, his attention was attracted by something on Huo Qiyun’s waist.

“Ten Miles Dragon Dagger?!”

Lin Ran exclaimed again. On Huo Qiyun’s waist was the other half of the Ten Miles Dragon Roar!

But wasn’t this Dragon Roar Dagger Liu Hongshan’s sword? How did it fall into Huo Qiyun’s hands?

As if knowing Lin Ran’s confusion, Huo Qiyun took the initiative to say, “Liu Hongshan gave this to me. He already knows that the Sacred Abyss Sword is fake, so he sent me back as a spy to steal the real Sacred Abyss Sword. He keeps Xiao Huai there as a hostage.”

Lin Ran nodded, not surprised that Liu Hongshan could tell if it was real or fake.

From the beginning, Lin Ran did not intend to use the fake Sacred Abyss Sword to fool Liu Hongshan. He only put on that show to lure Liu Hongshan out and determine if what Xiao Huai said was true or not.

The good news was that Xiao Huai was not lying. Although she was a demon, she could still be trusted.

The bad news was that Xiao Huai had fallen into Liu Hongshan’s hands.

However, Lin Ran was still very happy that Huo Qiyun could bring back the Dragon Roar Dagger. Without the support of the Dragon Roar Dagger, Liu Hongshan’s strength would be reduced greatly.

Lin Ran asked with a serious expression, “No matter what, since you’re back, explain everything to me in detail. I need to know what’s going on over there.”

Huo Qiyun nodded and told him everything.

After a pause, Huo Qiyun continued, “I think Liu Hongshan’s goal is not just to obtain power. He must have a deeper plan, but he’s too vigilant. I didn’t succeed in getting him to tell me. What should we do now? Are we really going to give him the Sacred Abyss Sword?”

“I definitely can’t give him the Sacred Abyss Sword, but I can’t ignore Xiao Huai’s safety either…”

Lin Ran muttered, “This is a little difficult!”

“Actually, there’s another way.”

Huo Qiyun said coldly and patted the Dragon Roar Dagger at his waist. “Without his sword, Liu Hongshan’s strength will definitely be greatly reduced. I can bring you there. If we join forces to kill him, all the problems will be resolved!”

Lin Ran burst out laughing. Huo Qiyun looked displeased. “What are you laughing at? I’ve checked Liu Hongshan’s cultivation level. Without the sword, the two of us have a high chance of killing him!”

“This is only what you think.”

Lin Ran pursed his lips and looked at Huo Qiyun. “Do you know what my cultivation level is?”

“I don’t know exactly. About the third level of the Half-Saint Realm…”

Before Huo Qiyun could finish speaking, he felt a powerful aura coming from Lin Ran. It was at least at the fifth level of the Half-Saint Realm!

“What you have sensed now is not all of my strength.”

Lin Ran said coldly, “Liu Hongshan is only stronger than me. Do you really think he’ll show you all his trump cards?”

Huo Qiyun looked dumbfounded and speechless. It was not because of the shock Lin Ran gave him, but because he suddenly thought of something very important!

“Call the guards in the palace to protect the empress!”

Huo Qiyun suddenly shouted, “Liu Hongshan is coming soon!”
