Signing In At Mount Sword For 100 Years To Become Invincible-Chapter 62 - Summoned at the Same Time

“What are you doing here?”

The empress said in a voice devoid of emotions.

Lin Ran immediately felt that something was wrong. After hesitating for a moment, he probed, “Your Majesty, if I said that I’m here to visit… would you believe me?”

“What do you think?”

“I don’t think you will believe me.”

Just as Lin Ran was in a dilemma, he suddenly had an idea and said, “Your Majesty, actually… Sword God entrusted me with a task.”

“What task?”

As expected, when she heard the words “Sword God”, the empress’s attitude softened a lot. Although she was still expressionless, her tone was no longer as cold.

“The task is… is…”

There was naturally no task. As he stalled for time, he looked around for inspiration.

He accidentally saw the green sword at the entrance and his eyes lit up. He hurriedly pointed at the green sword and said, “It’s this sword! Senior Sword God asked me to bring this sword back to Mount Sword!”

“Blue Mountain?”

The empress clearly recognized that sword. She was stunned for a moment before she said in confusion, “This is only the sword of a general in the recent era. Although it’s also a divine weapon, Mount Sword doesn’t seem to lack such things, right?”

“I don’t know. Don’t ask me.”

Lin Ran shrugged and said, “Anyway, Sword God asked me to bring it back. He didn’t say what it was used for, so I didn’t ask.”

“I see.”

The empress nodded. Her attitude had completely softened, and she seemed to believe Lin Ran’s words.

Only then did Lin Ran stand up and see the ruby necklace on the empress’s chest glowing. It was probably activated spontaneously to protect the empress.

Otherwise, with the empress’s cultivation, she would be severely injured by the surging sword intent on the stone steps before she even reached this stone room.

After a short silence, the empress walked around the stone room with the lantern. When she saw the Sacred Abyss Sword on the wall, she heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she looked at Lin Ran and asked, “Since it’s a task entrusted by Grandpa Sword God, why didn’t you tell me in advance? Why did you have to come down secretly?”

At this moment, Lin Ran was no longer nervous. Hearing this, he said helplessly, “Senior Sword God specially instructed me not to let you know about this. However, the commotion caused by me opening this place still alerted you.”

There was a hint of suspicion in the empress’s eyes. Lin Ran added, “What I said is true. Think about it. There’s an array formation in the Hidden Sword Pavilion. If Senior Sword God didn’t tell me, how would I know that there was a secret room down here? How would I find this place?”

“It makes sense.”

The empress nodded thoughtfully and finally believed Lin Ran.

Then, Lin Ran said a few more words and suggested going back to the ground.

Seeing that the empress agreed, Lin Ran was about to pick up the lantern when the empress suddenly said, “Wait!”

“Oh no!”

≈Lin Ran’s heart was in his throat. He thought that the empress had discovered something and forced a smile. “What’s wrong, Your Majesty? Is there anything else?”

The empress raised her hand and pointed at Blue Mountain Sword. “Aren’t you here to take this sword?”

“Oh, right, right! I would have forgotten if you hadn’t mentioned it!”

Lin Ran laughed foolishly and picked up the sword.

The empress rolled her eyes in disdain. “You’re so careless. I really don’t know why Grandpa Sword God asked you to do this!”

“I’m the only one on Mount Sword now. Who else can he look for?”

Lin Ran chuckled and urged the empress to hurry up.

As soon as the two of them went out, Lin Ran suddenly heard a rustling sound. He turned around and saw that the stone door, which had been shattered into pieces, was quickly restored as if time had reversed!

“This stone room was personally built by Grandpa Sword God. There’s a special array formation on the door. It’s powerful, right?”

The empress introduced with a proud expression like a little girl showing off her toys.

Lin Ran was very cooperative and complimented. Then, the two of them walked up the stone steps.

As soon as the two of them walked out of the boulder, it seemed to have sensed something and began to tremble before quickly closing. Soon, it returned to its original state.

The empress pulled out the Ten Miles Dragon Roar from the boulder and stroked it for a moment with a nostalgic expression. Then, she instructed Lin Ran, “Imperial guards have surrounded this place. Wait here for a moment. You can go out after I take them away.”

Lin Ran nodded and the empress walked out alone with the lantern.

Soon, the sound of footsteps were heard. After the guards left, Lin Ran opened the door a crack and made sure that no one was outside before coming out.

After locking the door of the Hidden Sword Pavilion, Lin Ran put the key back to its place. Then, he activated the Mystic Gate Sword Technique and flashed all the way back to Mingzhao Hall. After closing the door, he finally felt relieved.

After a night of ups and downs, Lin Ran realized that his clothes were drenched in cold sweat.

“Sigh… It’s really stressful for an honest and upright young man like me to do something so sneaky!”

Lin Ran muttered to himself for a while. When he calmed down, he looked at Blue Mountain Sword and started to feel troubled.

Although this sword was a divine weapon, it was useless to Lin Ran. There were already several divine swords in his possession.

Compared to those divine swords, Blue Mountain Sword was nothing special in terms of sword intent or power. Naturally, Lin Ran would not want to keep it.

“Looks like I really have to take a journey back to Mount Sword.”

Lin Ran smiled bitterly and put Blue Mountain Sword aside. He lay on the bed and began to rest.

The next morning.

Lin Ran had just opened his eyes in a daze when he heard someone knocking on the door. “Senior Sword God? Are you still resting? His Majesty wants to see you in the imperial study!”

“Got it!”

Lin Ran replied casually and was about to go back to sleep when he suddenly sat up with a start. Why did the voice of the person outside sound like Li Tianyi?

Li Tianyi knew Lin Ran. If he recognized Lin Ran’s voice, it would definitely be a big problem!

As expected, Li Tianyi recognized Lin Ran’s voice almost instantly. His tone changed as he continued, “So Commander Lin is also here. That’s good. It saves me the trouble of bringing this message to you!”

Hearing this, Lin Ran’s expression immediately became complicated.

Back then, the empress asked Lin Ran to pretend to be the Sword God in the palace. Now, she was summoning Lin Ran and Sword God Ten Miles at the same time. What was going on?

However, the emperor’s orders were not to be challenged. He changed into the uniform of the guard commander and prepared to go out. 𝙛𝔯𝒆e𝔀e𝗯𝓷𝗼𝘃e𝚕.𝒄𝗼𝗺

When he walked out of the door, he saw Li Tianyi standing outside.

Lin Ran pulled a long face and was about to speak when he realized that Li TIanyi’s attitude seemed a little strange.
