Signing In At Mount Sword For 100 Years To Become Invincible

221 The Mother-Daughter Relationship

Everyone on Liu Ruxi’s side was knocked to the ground by Lin Ran. Although he didn’t kill them, these people couldn’t continue fighting for the time being.

Liu Ruxi was also trapped in the sword energy cage by Lin Ran. This sword energy cage that consumed 60% of his internal energy would take even Lin Ran some effort to break a crack, let alone Liu Ruxi, who was only in the Senior Grandmaster Realm.

However, even under such circumstances, Liu Ruxi still shouted, “All of you will die.” Most importantly, Lin Ran could tell that she was not bluffing.

Lin Ran had expected Liu Ruxi to have a backup plan, but what could it be?

!!

“Xiao Shun!”

Lin Ran suddenly turned to look at Xiao Shun. “Is there an array formation in this town? Like the kind that explodes when you activate it?”

Xiao Shun was still in aftershock from Lin Ran’s comeback. Another young man replied, “There’s only one array formation here to prevent newcomers from escaping. There’s nothing dangerous like what you said!”

“Then it’s not array formation.”

Lin Ran crossed out a possibility in his mind. Then, he looked at the white-robed youths on the ground. He was certain that most of them had been knocked unconscious. Even if there were a few who were awake, they were lying on the ground and could not get up. They were not a threat at all.

“Not those people either.”

Lin Ran crossed out another possibility and realized that the list in his mind was already empty. In such a short period of time, it was already not bad for him to think of these two possibilities.

After thinking for a few seconds without figuring it out, Lin Ran realized that he couldn’t stay here for long because he had just noticed a detail.

Liu Ruxi was looking at Lin Ran when she said that. In other words, the “you” was everyone, including Lin Ran and the empress. No matter what her backup plan was, it must be something extremely powerful!

“Everyone! Leave this place immediately!”

Lin Ran roared and waved his hand to disperse the sword energy cage protecting the empress. Then, his figure flashed and he appeared beside the empress.

At the same time, Xiao Shun and the others from the neutral camp also took action. They went forward to bring the injured people with them. Even though they were on opposing sides, they were still companions who had lived together for so long.

The empress had been isolated in the sword energy cage and had no idea what was happening outside. When she heard the commotion again, she hurriedly took off the cloth covering her eyes and asked, “Is it over?”

“Not yet.”

Lin Ran shook his head with a bitter smile and looked at the sword energy cage that imprisoned Liu Ruxi. “But she wants to die with us. We have to leave this place immediately.”

The empress looked in Lin Ran’s direction and met Liu Ruxi’s gaze.

As soon as their eyes met, the empress’s eyes instantly turned red. Liu Ruxi’s eyes were already filled with coldness and madness. The empress suddenly found her unrecognizable.

“Can you still walk?”

The sudden voice pulled the empress back from her thoughts. She turned around and saw Lin Ran looking at her with a serious expression.

This was the first time the empress had seen Lin Ran so serious. She was stunned for a moment before nodding. “I’m slightly injured, but I can still walk.”

Lin Ran nodded and handed over the Thunderball Sword. “This sword travels faster. I was afraid that you wouldn’t be able to control it well, so I didn’t give it to you, but I have no choice now.”

The empress took the Thunderball Sword. Then, she suddenly thought of something and raised her wrist. “But we have this ribbon. We can’t get out!”

“I have an idea!”

Lin Ran replied in a low voice. With that, he flashed and arrived in front of the golden sword energy cage.

He opened a crack on the impregnable sword energy cage. Almost at the same time, a cold light pierced out from the crack and went straight for Lin Ran’s throat!

Lin Ran reached out two fingers and locked the soft sword firmly in place. Then, he looked at Liu Ruxi and said helplessly, “You’re not my match. Why don’t you understand?”

“As a soldier, even if I know that I can’t win, I have to try!”

Liu Ruxi pulled the soft sword back from the crack. Then, she sneered at Lin Ran. “Are you going to ask me what my plan is? Give up! I’ll never tell you!”

“It doesn’t matter. I didn’t want to ask anyway.”

Lin Ran shrugged and suddenly became serious. “I want to discuss something with you one last time. I want you to untie her ribbon—”

At this point, Lin Ran glanced back at the empress, then at Liu Ruxi and continued, “It’s me who ruined your plan, so you must hate me the most. Let her go. I’ll stay and play with you until the end.”

“Wan’er…”

Liu Ruxi looked at the empress. There seemed to be a hint of gentleness in her crazy eyes, but it disappeared in an instant.

“In your dream!”

Liu Ruxi laughed crazily. “All of you are going to die!”

“In that case, I’ll have to cut off her hand.”

Lin Ran sighed and appeared beside the empress in a flash. He raised his hand and summoned the Yin-Yang Sword, slashing down without hesitation!

“Stop!”

Liu Ruxi screamed and the Yin-Yang Sword immediately stopped a few inches above the empress’s hand.

Lin Ran heaved a sigh of relief. Although it was not right to use the mother-daughter relationship to threaten Liu Luxi, this was the only way he could think of. If this couldn’t scare Liu Ruxi, he could only bring the empress to smash through the formation.

Lin Ran looked impatient. He looked at Liu Ruxi and said angrily, “Didn’t you say you didn’t care? Why did you change your mind so quickly?”

Liu Ruxi’s face darkened and she did not reply. She looked at the empress and said in a low voice, “Bring her over.”

Lin Ran was overjoyed. He brought the empress to the side of the sword energy cage. With a thought, the crack on the cage widened just enough for the empress to reach in.

The empress frowned slightly and looked at Lin Ran. Seeing Lin Ran nod, she slowly reached into the crack.

Liu Ruxi took out the soft sword and held it in her hand.

The empress’s expression changed and she hurriedly retracted her hand. Although Lin Ran was not worried, he still warned, “There are millions of sword energy here. If you dare to do anything you shouldn’t, I guarantee that you’ll be minced instantly.”

Liu Ruxi glanced at Lin Ran and didn’t say anything. Then, when she looked at the empress, her eyes softened. “Wan’er, don’t be afraid. Put your hand in.”

The empress no longer trusted Liu Ruxi. When she heard this, she first looked at Lin Ran. Seeing him nod, she slowly reached into the crack.

However, just as the empress’s hand was about to reach the crack, Liu Ruxi suddenly reached out from inside and grabbed the empress’s wrist, pulling her towards the surging sword energy cage!
