Signing In At Mount Sword For 100 Years To Become Invincible

130 The World Is A Small Place

Under the dark night, outside Mount Sword’s mountain-protecting array formation.

Lin Ran and Huo Qiyun looked at each other before heading towards the burly man with the huge sword.

When they reached a distance where they could hear, Lin Ran and Huo Qiyun stopped.

A man with a hoarse voice asked in a low voice, “Brother Hong, how much longer do we have to wait? My leg is about to be eaten up by insects!”

The person called Brother Hong replied softly, “What’s the hurry? I already told you 1:15 am.”

“Brother Hong seems to be the man with the huge sword.”

Lin Ran leaned towards Huo Qiyun and explained, “At that time, you were healing upstairs. I saw him downstairs once.”

Huo Qiyun nodded with a puzzled expression. “But what are they doing here?”

Lin Ran shook his head to indicate that he didn’t know. Just as he was thinking about how to investigate, he heard the hoarse voice ask again, “Brother Hong, will this really work? Stealing on Mount Sword is a serious crime!”

Brother Hong said, “It’s a serious crime if we are caught. If not, we’ll be rich!”

The man with a hoarse voice hesitated and said, “But…”

“No buts!”

Brother Hong interrupted him and said in a low voice with confidence, “I’ve already asked around. The new mountain guardian is weak. With our realms, it’ll be easy to steal a few divine swords.”

The man with a hoarse voice said weakly, “Brother Hong…”

“Shut your mouth!”

Brother Hong scolded in a low voice, “Can you be bolder? There are divine swords all over Mount Sword. No one will know if a few are missing. After selling them, we won’t have to worry about the rest of our lives!”

“I mean, Brother Hong…”

“Damn it! If you continue talking nonsense, I’ll sew your mouth shut!”

“I have to say even if you sew my mouth!”

The man with a hoarse voice suddenly raised his voice a little. “It’s time! We have to go in quickly!”

“Gosh! Why didn’t you say so earlier!”

Brother Hong exclaimed, followed by the crisp sound of a slap. Then, four or five people stood up from the bush and ran towards Mount Sword on tiptoe!

On the other side.

Lin Ran turned to look at Huo Qiyun and realized that Huo Qiyun was also looking at him.

“Are you thinking the same thing as me?” Lin Ran asked.

“That should be the case.”

Huo Qiyun nodded, but there was hesitation on his face. “But is this a good idea?”

“What’s not good about it?”

Lin Ran smiled indifferently, and a cunning glint flashed across his eyes. “It’s a waste not to use a scapegoat who came knocking on your door… Are you really going to let the imperial guards hunt you down for the rest of your life?”

Huo Qiyun still hesitated. After a moment, he waved his hand. “Let’s go in first!”

“Fine.”

Almost at the same time that Lin Ran and the others appeared within the confines of Mount Sword, an invisible ripple spread out in the air.

“The mountain-protecting array formation is activated again.”

Lin Ran looked back and said softly, “We don’t know how fast those people are, so we have to find the Sacred Abyss Sword as soon as possible, return here, and wait for them to leave. Then, we’ll take the opportunity to sneak out when they touch the array formation and alert the Mountain Guardian.”

As soon as Huo Qiyun agreed, Lin Ran disappeared with Xiao Huai.

“This movement technique is really useful… I have to get him to teach me some time!”

Huo Qiyun thought to himself. Then, he found the right direction and ran on foot.

At the same time, Lin Ran had already flashed to the residence of the mountain guardian. He lifted the curtain and looked in. Wang Kailin was sleeping soundly.

Lin Ran heaved a sigh of relief. He took a few steps back and unsheathed the sword at his waist. In an instant, a sword energy cage appeared out of thin air and enveloped the entire hut.

Xiao Huai had been watching from the side. Seeing this, she couldn’t help but ask in confusion, “What are you doing? With your strength, killing him should be easy, right?”

“Who said I was going to kill him?”

Lin Ran was speechless. “This sword energy cage can isolate sound. This place is not peaceful tonight. If he hears the commotion and comes out to check, he will definitely die, so let him sleep first.”

“Not peaceful…”

Xiao Huai muttered thoughtfully and suddenly pointed in the direction behind Lin Ran. “Are you talking about those sneaky guys?”

Lin Ran subconsciously turned around. At first, he did not see anyone. After looking carefully for a while, he realized that on a hill two to three miles away, there were a few figures moving. From the posture, they were probably pulling swords out from the mountain.

“Yes, those sneaky fellows.”

Lin Ran sneered and carried Xiao Huai on his shoulder. “Let them mess around for a while. We’ll deal with them after we’re done.”

With that, Lin Ran was about to go to find the Sacred Sword Hall when Xiao Huai suddenly patted him on the shoulder. “But… those people are about to die.”

Boom!

As soon as Xiao Huai finished speaking, they heard a deafening bang. Flames shot into the sky and gravel flew everywhere on the hill, and it was simply as if it had been blown up by a cannonball!

Lin Ran was shocked and hurriedly checked the wooden hut with his divine sense. After confirming that Wang Kailin was still asleep, he looked at the hill and asked, “What happened? What did you see just now?”

“Someone’s attacking them.”

As Xiao Huai spoke, she pointed in another direction. “When you carried me up just now, someone slashed out a sword energy from there and sent those sneaky people flying.”

Lin Ran looked in the direction Xiao Huai was pointing and was surprised.

There was only a small mountain in that direction, more than two kilometers away from the hill where Brother Hong and the others were!

To be able to strike accurately with sword energy from afar, this was not something that just anyone could do. The other party was at least at the level of a Senior Grandmaster!

However, there were only a few senior grandmasters in the Heavenly Saint Dynasty. They were all in seclusion. How could anyone appear in Mount Sword? What was his purpose in coming to Mount Sword?

“Do you want to take a look?”

As if sensing Lin Ran’s confusion, Xiao Huai stared in that direction and asked softly.

“Not now.”

Lin Ran thought for a moment and shook his head. “Since he stepped in to stop that group of people from stealing the divine swords, he shouldn’t be an enemy of the Heavenly Saint Dynasty. Let’s get down to the most important business first.”

“But…”

Xiao Huai spoke again, her tone filled with schadenfreude. “He’s already coming towards us.”
