Chapter 121 - 121 Stupid Teammate

121 Stupid Teammate

Lin Ran thought for a moment and things cleared up.

Although Lin Ran still didn’t know what Dragon Elephant Divine Master was plotting, the demon breaking the seal and the death of Sword God should be just part of his plan.

At the same time, he instigated Xiao Huai to take the risk to obtain the sword. It was obvious that this sword would play a vital role in his subsequent plan.

However, this was only Lin Ran’s analysis at the moment. There were a few key things that needed to be verified.

Thinking of this, Lin Ran’s eyes narrowed for a moment before he came up with a plan…

On the stone staircase not far away, Xiao Huai had already fallen into madness.

Because the rattle drum in her hand was spinning too quickly, it was almost invisible to the naked eye.

Under the control of her evil aura, a few standard swords began to circle in the air in a specific pattern and became faster and faster!

A violent sword intent spread out, but Lin Ran still looked indifferent.

Not only were there the personal swords of famous generals, but there was also the Sacred Abyss Sword of the founding emperor, the Heavenly Saint Emperor. The abundant righteousness and killing intent in it were really the natural nemesis of these evil auras!

Not to mention that Xiao Huai was only at the peak of the Grandmaster Realm. Even if she had entered the Half-Saint Realm like Lin Ran, she could only exert 60 to 70% of her strength in this secret passage.

From the moment he stepped into the secret passage, Lin Ran had already gained the upper hand. In addition, he had the Dark Insect Sword that liked to feed on evil aura.

In the blink of an eye, the standard swords suddenly seemed to have disappeared. There was howling wind blowing in the secret passage, but there were no sword shadows. This meant that their speed had reached its peak!

Xiao Huai’s eyes dilated. Not only did the dense darkness seep into her eyes, but strange black patterns also appeared gradually around her eyes.

An extremely sinister evil aura accompanied by a violent sword intent instantly erupted with a bang!

A strong wind blew past Lin Ran. He stood proudly on the stone staircase with the Black Insect Sword in his hand. He was as tall as a mountain and did not move at all. Only the shirt fluttered in the wind.

The strong wind was like a knife when it brushed past people, but even if it was a real knife, it was nothing to the current Lin Ran.

However, not everything was as invincible as Lin Ran.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

With some crisp sounds, the surrounding stone walls and stone steps exploded into a spiderweb-like pattern.

Seeing this, Lin Ran couldn’t help but be surprised. This secret passage was made of the same material as the peaks of Mount Sword. It was unimaginably hard. Even if he wanted to crack this stone wall, it would probably take him a lot of effort!

From the looks of it, this demon was indeed extraordinary. If she had such strength at the Grandmaster Realm, what would happen when she entered the Half-Saint Realm?

Thinking of this, Lin Ran couldn’t help but clench the hilt of his sword tightly. Sticky black liquid seeped out from between his fingers and solidified again. In the blink of an eye, the Black Insect Sword and his right hand became one.

“I’ll give you another chance!”

Lin Ran shouted into the strong wind, “Surrender and I’ll bring you back to Mount Sword. Or continue to resist and I’ll let you die here!”

A resentful expression appeared on Xiao Huai’s stiff face, but she didn’t say anything. Lin Ran didn’t ask further, and the surging sword intent of the Half-Saint Realm erupted!

The two sword intents, one good and one evil, collided head-on in the narrow passage.

Accompanied by a deafening explosion, invisible ripples were created in the air. If anyone stood between the two of them at this moment, they would definitely be torn to pieces by this violent sword intent storm!

“Fortunately, we are far down from the ground. Otherwise, with such a huge commotion, the people above would think that it was an earthquake,” Lin Ran muttered to himself.

Soon, the violent sword intent in the air began to retreat.

Seeing that the situation had turned around against her, Xiao Huai immediately bit her lip and spat out a mouthful of blood on the rattle drum. Then, she grabbed the drum handle with both hands and smashed it at Lin Ran with difficulty, as if she was holding a thousand-pound hammer!

Dong—

A loud gong sound erupted in the air. A few standard swords connected into a line, tore through the storm, and flew straight towards Lin Ran’s chest!

Before the sword arrived, Lin Ran could already feel the heavy sword energy pressing on his chest. He narrowed his eyes and was about to counterattack when his eyes suddenly narrowed!

“Damn demon! Go to hell!”

With a shout, a figure flew down from above the secret passage. The sword in his hand emitted tens of thousands of cold lights before it converged into a line and pierced straight into the back of Xiao Huai!

“Huo Qiyun?!”

Lin Ran recognized the figure and shouted in shock, “Don’t come over! You’re not her—”

Before he could say that word ‘match’, Huo Qiyun was already ten steps away from Xiao Huai. The dazzling cold light was already pressed against Xiao Huai’s back!

However, at this moment, a deafening clang sounded in the air, followed by the shattering of the cold light.

“How is this possible?!”

Huo Qiyun’s eyes widened in shock. In the blink of an eye, Xiao Huai disappeared into the thin air. At the same time, a cold hand grabbed Huo Qiyun’s throat like a poisonous snake.

“Move again and I’ll kill him!”

Xiao Huai’s young voice sounded, but the killing intent and madness in it made people know that she was not joking.

The sword intent storm in the air instantly calmed down.

Lin Ran looked at Huo Qiyun, who was held hostage, helplessly. He really wanted to kick this stupid teammate of his to death!

Only then did Huo Qiyun understand what just happened. After a moment, his eyes flickered as he shouted sternly, “Lin Ran! Don’t back off! If you let the demon go today, the world will be finished!”

“Shut your mouth!”

Lin Ran gritted his teeth and roared angrily. He waved the Black Insect Sword in his hand, and sword energy shot out and slapped Huo Qiyun’s face heavily.

Huo Qiyun was stunned by this sword energy slap. Xiao Huai, who was grabbing Huo Qiyun’s throat, was also stunned.

Lin Ran’s attack just now was extremely fast and without warning. If this sword was aimed at her, there was no way she could dodge it… Could it be that he had missed the mark?

As Xiao Huai was thinking, Lin Ran waved his hand again and slapped Huo Qiyun on the other side of the face.

This time, the two of them understood that Lin Ran was only trying to slap Huo Qiyun.

Two sword energy slaps landed squarely on his face. Even Huo Qiyun, who was at the peak of the Senior Martial Master Realm, couldn’t withstand them. His cheeks quickly swelled up like a hamster with its mouth filled with food. He looked at Lin Ran aggrievedly. “Why did you hit me? Hit her!”

“I just want to hit you!”

Lin Ran glared at him and said angrily, “Who asked you to come down? You ruined my perfect plan!”
