Signing In At Mount Sword For 100 Years To Become Invincible - Chapter 321

321 The Difference Between Their Strength

Just as the thought of a secret passage arose, Lin Ran released his divine sense to investigate the surroundings. However, before he could find the secret passage, he found an acquaintance wandering outside.

“Huo Qiyun?”

Lin Ran recognized the fluctuation of that person’s internal energy and couldn’t help but look puzzled. He asked Huo Qiyun to escort Ye Jin and his daughter out of the city, but why did he come back alone?

As he thought to himself, Lin Ran arrived at the door of the dungeon in a flash. He waved his hand and undid the array formation on the door. He asked in a low voice, “Didn’t I tell you to leave quickly? Why are you back?”

!!
At this moment, Huo Qiyun was thinking about where to find Lin Ran when he suddenly heard someone speak.

However, Huo Qiyun quickly recognized the voice. Then, his eyes rolled back as he said angrily, “You have the cheek to say that? You only told me to go to the north of the city. Do you know how many people live there? They’re all sleeping. Where am I supposed to find the Ye family?”

“Sleeping? That shouldn’t be the case.”

Lin Ran walked out of the dungeon with a puzzled expression. “I was just arrested not long ago. Even if the neighbors are sleeping, they should still be at home waiting for me to return.”

Hearing the word “waiting”, Huo Qiyun suddenly thought of something and slapped his forehead. “Oh, right. I did find a house in the north of the city that was open. I went in to take a look, but there was no one inside.”

“No one?”

Lin Ran was even more puzzled. “Where is the house located?”

Huo Qiyun described the approximate location. Lin Ran’s expression immediately changed because that location sounded like the Ye family, but how could there be no one inside?

After thinking for a while to no avail, Lin Ran could only put this matter to the back of his mind for the time being. He waved his hand and said helplessly, “Come with me first. We’ll go to the Ye family together.”

Huo Qiyun agreed. Then, the two of them walked towards the guard room.

When he pushed open the door and entered the house, Sun Ge was still sitting on the chair without moving.

Seeing Lin Ran return, Sun Ge’s expression clearly became excited. He gritted his teeth and seemed to be struggling with all his might, but he still couldn’t move.

Seeing this, Huo Qiyun frowned in confusion. “What’s wrong with him? Wasn’t he fine a while ago?”

“He’s fine. I was afraid that he would cause trouble, so I used some tricks.”

As Lin Ran spoke, he walked forward and patted Sun Ge’s shoulder.

Almost at the same time, Sun Ge suddenly jumped up as if he had a spring installed in him. He glared at Lin Ran and shouted in a low voice, “Where did you go just now! I’m warning you, if you dare to do anything to His Majesty, I’ll make you pay the price!”

“Don’t worry, he is very unharmed!”

Lin Ran pushed Sun Ge away and took off his token. “I have something to do outside the city. I need to borrow your token. Remember to go to the city gate to get it later.”

With that, Lin Ran turned around and left. Of course, Sun Ge wouldn’t let him leave so easily. He drew his saber from the sheath and stabbed Lin Ran in the back!

Sun Ge’s movements were extremely fast and without warning. However, Huo Qiyun was not to be trifled with. He frowned and waved his sword. Without even drawing his sword, he knocked the saber out of Sun Ge’s hand with the scabbard.

There was a loud clang behind Lin Ran. He turned around and saw Huo Qiyun with a calm expression and Sun Ge covering his right hand in shock. His hand was injured, and blood was seeping out from between his fingers.

Seeing this, Lin Ran immediately understood what was going on. Then, he rolled his eyes at Huo Qiyun and complained, “Why did you use so much strength? Don’t you know that your cultivation has improved? Do you think you’re still at the ninth level of the Senior Martial Master Realm?”

Sun Ge’s expression changed slightly when he heard this. Although he didn’t know Huo Qiyun’s exact realm, it wasn’t difficult to tell from Lin Ran’s words that he was definitely above the ninth level of the Senior Martial Master Realm.

However, Huo Qiyun looked so young. How could he have such a terrifying cultivation? Were Heavenly Saint martial artists all such monsters?

Seeing Sun Ge’s shocked expression, Huo Qiyun didn’t care at all. He rolled his eyes at Lin Ran and said angrily, “I was saving you just now. Is this how you thank your savior?”

Lin Ran pursed his lips in disdain. “Why are you talking like he can hit me if you don’t attack!”

Huo Qiyun crossed his arms and said, “Anyway, I saved you once.”

“You…”

Seeing that Lin Ran was speechless, Huo Qiyun couldn’t help but chuckle. It was obvious that neither of them took it seriously.

When Sun Ge heard the chuckle, his already shocked expression turned even uglier.

He had gathered everything he had learned in his strike. However, none of them took it seriously.

A strong sense of defeat welled up in his heart.

Sun Ge looked down at the saber that had been sent flying. Just as he was about to take advantage of the moment when the two of them were distracted to attack again, his vision suddenly blurred. When he saw it clearly again, the saber was nowhere to be seen.

“It’s very important to know your place in life.”

Sun Ge subconsciously looked in the direction of the voice and realized that the saber that was a dozen steps away was already in Lin Ran’s hand.

“What speed!”

Sun Ge couldn’t help but be impressed. Although he already knew that Lin Ran’s cultivation level was far higher than his, he finally saw the difference in strength between the two of them with his own eyes.

Thinking of this, Sun Ge felt as if someone had poured a basin of ice water over his head. The burning anger in his heart was instantly extinguished.

“Just kill me.”

Sun Ge looked at Lin Ran and said calmly. There was endless despair in his eyes. After all, in the face of such a difference in strength, no matter how strong his will was, he would only be at the mercy of Lin Ran.

However, to Sun Ge’s surprise, after hearing that he was asking for death, Lin Ran actually smiled strangely.

“Why should I kill you? I have something very important to entrust to you!”
