Luring the Tiger Away from the Mountain, Never Provoke a Madman

This powerful aura appeared without warning and Lin Ran was instantly forced back a few steps.

When he activated his internal energy to stabilize himself, a cold dagger had already appeared in front of him like a ghost!

“Go to hell!”

Hearing Liu Hongshan’s hysterical roar, Lin Ran instinctively leaned back to dodge, but the dagger turned in the air and stabbed straight at his heart!

Time seemed to slow down at this moment.

Lin Ran maintained the posture of bending down. This movement made it inconvenient for him to exert strength, so he was destined to be unable to react to any of Liu Hongshan’s moves that followed.

The cold dagger cut through the air and stabbed straight at his chest.

Lin Ran could clearly see the clothes on his chest being ripped open. Then the tip of the dagger touched the Dark Insect Sword that he had kept next to his skin.

A cold feeling spread out across his chest. Lin Ran knew that if he couldn’t react quickly, the Dragon Roar Dagger would continue to cut open his flesh, bones, and heart until it went right through his heart!

“The Mystic Gate Sword Technique! Dazzling Hundred Blossoms!”

Lin Ran muttered in silence. His muscles instantly tensed up, and his figure disappeared into thin air like a ghost. Then, he flashed more than ten steps away!

Clang!

With a crisp sound, the Dragon Roar Dagger collided with the ground, and the sword energy lingering on it instantly caused the ground to crack like spider-web.

Lin Ran held his chest with a pale face. There was a two-finger-wide cut on his shirt. He didn’t look down, but the black insects attached to his chest seeped into the wound, causing a burning pain.

From the location of the pain, Lin Ran knew that the wound on his chest must be very deep. If he was a millisecond slower, he would be gone.

“Never try to provoke a madman, especially a powerful one.”

For some reason, Lin Ran suddenly thought of this sentence.

He couldn’t even remember who said it, but at that moment, this sentence was the first thing that came to his mind.

From the moment he angered Liu Hongshan to the moment he used the Mystic Gate Sword Technique to escape at the critical moment, the entire process took less than a second!

Recalling the dangerous scene just now, Lin Ran broke out in cold sweat. Fortunately, Liu Hongshan was successfully enraged by him.

Before Lin Ran could rejoice, Liu Hongshan, who had missed the mark, immediately adjusted his posture and rushed at Lin Ran again with bloodshot eyes!

After achieving his goal, Lin Ran turned around and left. After flashing a few times and putting some distance between them, he jumped up on his thunderball and turned into a bolt of lightning that instantly disappeared into the distance.

“Don’t you dare leave!”

Liu Hongshan roared angrily and quickly turned into a phantom to follow closely behind.

He knew that Lin Ran wanted to take him away from the palace, but he didn’t care. Killing the empress now or killing Lin Ran before coming back to kill the empress made no difference to him.

Feeling the powerful pressure behind him, Lin Ran immediately pushed his speed to the limit and instantly shook off Liu Hongshan.

This was the magical effect of the Thunderball Sword. Unfortunately, Lin Ran didn’t know about it before. Otherwise, he would have used this move to lure the enemy away.

“It seems that when I have time, I have to study the uses of other divine swords.”

As Lin Ran thought to himself, he took out a ruby necklace.

This was a secret treasure passed down from generation to generation in the royal family of the Heavenly Saint Dynasty. It was the key to open the secret place of the Hundred Fragrance Palace.

Lin Ran had wanted to go to the secret place of the Hundred Fragrance Palace to increase his strength, but Liu Hongshan came too quickly. He was in a hurry to fight, so he forgot to return the necklace to the empress. He did not expect it to come in handy at this moment.

The empress had always been wearing the ruby necklace. Even in the howling wind, Lin Ran could still smell the faint fragrance of the empress.

The secret place of the Hundred Fragrance Palace was the battlefield Lin Ran had chosen.

Just as Liu Hongshan had said, once two Half-Saints collided with all their might, half of the dynasty would be razed to the ground.

Therefore, no matter where Lin Ran lured Liu Hongshan, the aftershock of the battle would cause immeasurable losses to the Heavenly Saint Dynasty, except for the secret place of the Hundred Fragrance Palace.

Lin Ran didn’t know when and who built the secret place, but the secret place was a mystery.

Lin Ran had noticed it the last time he entered the secret place.

At that time, he had a huge battle with the “thing” in the secret ground. Although he tried his best to control the strength of his attacks, every time that thing attacked, it was destructive!

Even so, their exchange of moves only affected the secret place. Outside the secret place, not a single blade of grass in the courtyard of the Hundred Fragrance Palace was broken!

However, the “thing” in the secret place was only at the ninth level of the Senior Grandmaster Realm. If two Half-Saints fought in it, even Lin Ran was not confident that the secret place could withstand it.

However, Lin Ran had no choice but to take a gamble. If he could direct that “thing” in the secret place to attack Liu Hongshan, it would be even better for him!

While he was thinking, Lin Ran had already landed in the courtyard of the Hundred Fragrance Palace.

After so many days, this yard was still overgrown with weeds and cold. Lin Ran felt that it was a little strange, but he didn’t have time to think about it because Liu Hongshan was chasing closely behind him!

“Go to hell!”

Accompanied by an angry roar, a half-moon air slash suddenly shot down from the air.

Lin Ran subconsciously wanted to dodge, but when he realized that the stone pillar that opened the secret place was in the path of the Air Slash, he stopped in his tracks. He tightened his grip on the hilt of Thunderball and spun on the spot before suddenly slashing out an electric arc!

In an instant, the electric arc and Air Slash collided in the air.

Lin Ran first saw a blinding white light erupt, followed by deafening thunder!

A huge thunderbolt descended from the sky, shaking the entire Hundred Fragrance Palace!

A large amount of dust fell from the beams. This palace that had been standing for countless years began to make a jarring sound, as if it would collapse in the next second.

However, at this moment, Lin Ran had no time to worry. He endured the discomfort brought about by the dazzling light and quickly and accurately inserted the ruby necklace into the keyhole before twisting it to the right!
