301 Blood Debt

Lin Ran was wondering what Guyue Dao meant when he saw Guyue Dao flick his finger and instantly, a cold light shot towards him!

“Old thing, you sneak attacked me!”

Lin Ran exclaimed and hurriedly turned his body. The cold light brushed past him and shot through the curtain. Then, Guyue Dao flicked his finger a few more times, and a few more cold lights appeared out of thin air!

Seeing this, Lin Ran couldn’t help but feel troubled.

If it were anywhere else, he would be able to dodge these cold lights easily.

However, the space in the carriage was narrow. When he dodged the first cold light, he had already retreated to the edge. There was no room for him to dodge.

Without hesitation, Lin Ran activated the Mystic Gate Sword Technique and instantly flashed out of the carriage.

Lin Ran landed on the ground and heaved a sigh of relief. He wanted to go to the Ye family to get his sword before dealing with this old thing, but when he looked around, he was dumbfounded. In the few minutes the two of them were talking, they had already arrived outside the city!

Under the cold moonlight, there was only a dark silhouette of the Iron City in the distance, which was at least a few kilometers away.

Lin Ran’s expression immediately turned ugly.

He did not know if Guyue Dao did it on purpose, but this distance was indeed a little awkward for him. Even if he activated the Mystic Gate Sword Technique with all his might, it would take him at least two to three flashes to reach the Ye family.

The most important thing was that every time he flashed, he would be at risk of being sneak attacked by the other party.

Just as Lin Ran was thinking about what to do, he suddenly heard horses neighing behind him. He turned around and saw the two horses pulling the carriage and running towards him crazily!

Seeing that the carriage was approaching menacingly, Lin Ran lost his temper. He turned to face the carriage and clenched his right hand behind his back. Star Splitter, which had four blades, appeared in his hand.

With a flash of cold light, thousands of sword energy surged out!

With a loud bang, the gorgeous carriage was instantly demolished.

Under Lin Ran’s meticulous control, the two horses were not injured at all. The horses were startled and soon ran into the distance and disappeared.

At the same time, a phantom flew out of the carriage. When the figure landed, he turned around and rushed at Lin Ran. “You killed my beloved disciple. Today, I’ll make you pay with your life!”

As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of cold lights surged over, but Lin Ran stood rooted to the ground in a daze, as if he was scared silly by this scene.

Lin Ran frowned slightly and pondered. “When did I kill his beloved disciple?”

The “beloved disciple” Guyue Dao was talking about should be Wu Yun, but the problem was that Lin Ran didn’t know this person at all!

After thinking about it carefully, Lin Ran finally realized what was going on. This was most likely a blood debt incurred by Huo Qiyun.

It was true that Huo Qiyun was from the Heavenly Saint Dynasty, but when he was wandering the martial world in the early years, whenever he heard someone slander the Ten Miles Sword God, he would fight them to the death.

In the past sixty years, Huo Qiyun had fought countless people. It didn’t seem strange that there were a few martial artists from the Great Yong Dynasty among them.

After Lin Ran figured this out, the cold light that filled the sky approached.

Guyue Dao’s lips curled into a cold smile, confident that the cold lights could mince his opponent.

However, just as the cold lights were about to hit Lin Ran, Lin Ran disappeared under his nose!

Dozens of cold lights pierced through the air and hit the ground, instantly causing a large amount of dust.

Guyue Dao was shocked. Just as she was wondering where Lin Ran had gone, he heard a voice behind him say, “This is a misunderstanding…”

“Oh no!”

Guyue Dao panicked and quickly flew more than a hundred feet forward. However, when he stabilized himself and turned around, the place he was just now at was empty.

Before Guyue Dao could react, the voice sounded behind him again. “Actually, my name is not Huo Qiyun…”

“What speed!”

Guyue Dao jumped up again in shock, but no matter how he changed directions and sped up, Lin Ran’s voice was like a ghost that always sounded behind him.

After a few times, Guyue Dao gave up. At the same time, he vaguely realized that he might have underestimated his enemy.

Guyue Dao turned to look at Lin Ran. “What realm are you in?”

“Hmm… Second level of the Grandmaster realm?”

Of course, Lin Ran wouldn’t tell the truth. After all, Guyue Dao looked like someone with high status. Once his identity was exposed, it might cause trouble.

Guyue Dao snorted in disbelief. However, when he used his divine sense to investigate, he realized that Lin Ran was indeed at the second level of the Grandmaster Realm.

Knowing that Lin Ran must have used a method to hide his realm, Guyue Dao didn’t dwell on this matter. He frowned and asked coldly, “You just said that you’re not Huo Qiyun. Who exactly are you?”

“It doesn’t matter who I am.”

Lin Ran waved his hand and sized up Guyue Dao. He asked, “What matters is who you are.”

Guyue Dao was stunned: “What does it have to do with you who I am?”

“It was originally none of my business, but you attacked me.”

Lin Ran shrugged helplessly and waved the Star Splitter Sword. “Now you should know that I’m a Heavenly Saint martial artist. If you’re a nobody, I’ll pretend nothing happens, but if you’re not…”

Lin Ran didn’t say the rest, but he believed that Guyue Dao could understand what he meant.

The Heavenly Saint Dynasty and the Great Yong Dynasty had a long-standing grudge. Now that the martial artist of the Heavenly Saint Dynasty had infiltrated the Great Yong Dynasty in disguise, if anyone made a mountain out of a molehill, the flames of war would definitely flare up again!

Guyue Dao naturally understood this. After a moment of silence with a hesitant expression, he finally replied honestly, “My name is Guyue Dao. I was originally a wandering cultivator in the martial world. After I entered the realm of Grandmaster by chance, I was valued by His Majesty and entered the palace to become his advisor.”

When Lin Ran heard this, he heaved a sigh of relief. Although the advisor of the emperor had some status, he was not considered an official. This matter would not be resolved easily tonight, but it would probably not be blown up either.
