Signing In At Mount Sword For 100 Years To Become Invincible-Chapter 263 - 263 Issue An Arrest Warrant on Me
263 Issue An Arrest Warrant on Me
As soon as Tu Baichuan finished questioning, heavy footsteps sounded outside.
Lin Ran didn’t need to look out to know that this room had been surrounded. This was what he wanted to tell the empress just now. If she pretended to be a non-existent person in the Five Elements Imperial Guards, she would be exposed as soon as they checked.
Fortunately, the empress was not a spy sent by an enemy country, so Lin Ran was not very worried.
The empress was also very calm. She stood up and said in a neutral voice, “Commander Tu, I’ve already said that I’m new to the Golden Guards…”
!!
“Nonsense!”
Tu Baichuan snorted and slammed the heavy sword in his hand on the ground, making a muffled clang. “Even if you’ve only been here for a day, the Golden Guards will still register your name.”
“I’ve already said that I’m new here.”
When she said the word “new”, the empress deliberately emphasized it. Then, she reached into her pocket and took out an envelope covered in wax. “This is my transfer letter.”
After a short silence, Tu Baichuan snatched the envelope, peeled off the wax, and took out a letter. After taking a look, his expression became strange. “Since there’s a transfer letter, why didn’t you report to the Golden Guards first?”
“I’m responsible for delivering the holy decree, so I naturally have to do it first.”
The empress’s answer was flawless. In addition, the transfer letter was true. Tu Baichuan pondered for a moment and finally walked out.
The soldiers outside also dispersed. The danger of their identities being exposed was easily resolved.
After the people outside walked away, Lin Ran immediately looked at the empress and asked in confusion, “Do you have to go to such an extent? Even if you want to sneak out, can’t you just pretend to be a golden guard?” fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m
“It’s too much trouble to pretend to be a specific person.”
The empress shook her head and sat down again. She blinked mischievously. “It’s simpler and easier to make a mask and write a transfer letter.”
Lin Ran couldn’t help but laugh. The empress continued, “Let’s not talk about this first. I heard that the Golden Guards suffered heavy casualties. What exactly happened in Mount Sword?”
“Just like I told you before.”
Lin Ran pointed at the jade talisman on the empress’s hand. “This should be set up by Liu Hongshan. I don’t know his true motive for the time being, but it’s definitely not something good.”
The empress nodded in agreement. “As long as this person is not eliminated, he will become a thorn in the side of the Heavenly Saint!”
“That’s right.”
Lin Ran echoed, then his expression became solemn. “That’s why I want to go to the Great Yong Dynasty again.”
The empress’s expression changed slightly. “Go again?”
Lin Ran nodded solemnly. “Now, I have a huge amount of killing intent accumulated in my body. Although I can suppress it with my cultivation, this is not a long-term solution. If I slack off and lose control, it will cause a huge disaster.”
Without waiting for the empress to speak, Lin Ran changed his tone. “But this is not entirely a bad thing. Liu Hongshan’s cultivation is slightly higher than mine, and he’s more experienced and ruthless than me. However, with this killing intent inside me, I might be able to fight him!”
“I understand what you’re saying.” 𝗳𝘳𝐞e𝙬𝙚𝚋𝗻𝚘𝚟𝗲l.𝑐𝑜m
The empress nodded slightly, but she looked troubled. “But many clues point to you being the suspect of what happened in Mount Sword. I can let you leave, but people will not be happy with my decision.”
After a short silence, Lin Ran clenched his fists as if he had made a decision. He looked up at the empress and said seriously, “Issue an arrest warrant on me.”
The empress was stunned. “What did you say?”
“Issue an arrest warrant on me.”
Lin Ran repeated, “No one in the Heavenly Saint Dynasty can stop me from leaving. After you return to the palace, pretend that nothing happened. After I escape, you can issue an arrest warrant on me. All the problems will be solved!”
“Absolutely not!”
The empress shook her head without hesitation. “We can still investigate the matter in Mount Sword and prove your innocence, but if you leave this place now, it will be impossible for you to explain yourself!”
“It’s okay.”
Lin Ran smiled indifferently. “When I bring back Liu Hongshan’s head, you can give me a fake identity. This is not difficult for you to do.”
“But…”
Just as the empress was about to say something, footsteps suddenly sounded. A black-robed young man rushed in anxiously.
“Hong Liquan?”
Lin Ran recognized the person. It was Hong Liquan, who had a conflict with him and Huo Qiyun in Lotus Town.
“Lord Lin!”
Hong Liquan greeted and hurriedly said, “Commander Tu asked me to tell you that Shen Rulin has already woken up, but after he injured a few brothers of the Wood Guards, he disappeared!”
“What?”
Lin Ran frowned. It was naturally good news that Shen Rulin had woken up, but why did he run away?
“Come with me!”
Hong Liquan waved his hand anxiously. “Commander Tu said that your cultivation level is high and that you have a higher chance of catching up to Shen Rulin.”
“Lead the way!”
Lin Ran was about to move when a hand grabbed his arm.
Lin Ran turned around and saw that it was indeed the empress who was holding him. He frowned and asked in confusion, “What are you doing? Didn’t you hear him say that something happened?”
“I don’t feel right.”
The empress shook her head. After glancing at Hong Liquan, she said softly, “Tu Baichuan can’t wait to send you to prison. Why would he ask you to chase after someone?”
“Didn’t he say it already? My cultivation is high, so the probability of catching up is higher!”
Lin Ran pointed at Hong Liquan, but there was no confidence in his voice.
He did not react in time just now, but after the empress pointed it out, he realized that something was wrong.
Lin Ran looked at the empress meaningfully. The latter immediately understood what he meant and blinked in agreement.
“What are you waiting for?”
...
Hong Liquan stood at the door with a confused expression. “Lord Lin, Commander Tu is still waiting. Let’s go over there quickly!”
“We still have something to talk about. Wait for me outside.”
Lin Ran waved his hand and asked Hong Liquan to wait outside. Then, he looked at the empress and asked softly, “Tu Baichuan wouldn’t be so bold, right?”
“Hard to say.”
The empress pondered and said, “He’s very close to Shen Qingquan. it’s hard to guarantee that he won’t purposefully let you leave and then hunt you down with a justifiable reason.”
Lin Ran sighed when he heard this, but then he smiled. “Isn’t that exactly what I want?”
