Signing In At Mount Sword For 100 Years To Become Invincible-Chapter 343 - A Beauty Is Here with Evil Intentions
343 A Beauty Is Here with Evil Intentions
Looking at the snowflakes falling from the burning sun, even Lin Ran, who prided himself on being knowledgeable, was clueless.
What surprised Lin Ran the most was how heavy the snow was. In just two to three seconds, the originally lush forest turned into a vast expanse of white.
Lin Ran’s head and shoulders were also covered in snow. If he moved slightly, it would fall down. Unintentionally, a few snowflakes landed at the corner of his mouth, and then a faint bitter taste spread in his mouth. His entire body began to feel numb…
“Oh no! This snow is poisonous!”
Lin Ran instantly realized that something was wrong. A majestic aura surged out of his body and sent the snow on his body flying.
At the same time, Lin Ran summoned the Yin-Yang Sword. However, just as he was about to slash out sword energy to form a barrier, his aura suddenly stagnated, and the Yin-Yang Sword in his hand fell to the ground with a clang.
“Lord Lin, don’t waste your effort. I’ve been planning for this snowstorm for months. The poison had already seeped into your body.”
Accompanied by a pleasant voice, a figure in a black cloak slowly walked out of the depths of the forest.
The snow that filled the sky gave way to the figure as if it was afraid of the figure. As a result, there was no snow on the black cloak, making it look dazzling in this white world.
“Who are you?”
Lin Ran asked coldly with a dark expression. At the same time, he secretly activated his internal energy, but he realized that he seemed to be exhausted. Not only was it difficult for him to move his fingers, but the internal energy he could mobilize was less than 1% of his peak.
Realizing this situation, Lin Ran’s expression became even more solemn. It was obvious that the figure did not come with good intentions!
At the same time, the person in the black cloak had already walked forward and stopped less than three steps in front of Lin Ran.
A fragrance wafted into Lin Ran’s nose, but Lin Ran’s eyes were burning with anger. The person stopped at such a close distance, which showed that not only was the person confident in his poison, but he was also not afraid of Lin Ran!
“Who exactly are you?!”
Lin Ran gritted his teeth and asked again. The numbness in his body intensified. He wanted to see what was going on with Ye Jin, but he couldn’t even turn his head.
“My name is Xue Gie. I’ve long heard of Lord Lin’s reputation. Seeing you today, you’re indeed impressive!”
The black-robed person smiled coquettishly. A pair of fair and slender hands reached out from under her cloak, grabbed the wide hood, and pulled it back. As silver hair that was as smooth as the moonlight poured down, a beautiful face that was mostly covered by a black veil was revealed.
Seeing her beautiful eyes that were as clear as lake water, even though Lin Ran knew that the person in front of him was an enemy, he couldn’t help but be stunned.
Xue Gie covered her mouth and chuckled when she saw this, but her clear eyes were filled with disappointment. “I thought that Lord Lin was an exceptional hero, but I didn’t expect you to be no different from those vulgar men who get infatuated upon seeing beauty.”
Lin Ran frowned. “Beauty? Do you have any sense of shame?”
“What?”
Xue Gie was stunned, and her beautiful eyes revealed a hint of sadness and weakness. “Am I not beautiful?”
“How would I know?”
Lin Ran rolled his eyes and pursed his lips. “Who made this mask? The craftsmanship is too lousy! Your forehead is reflecting light.”
Hearing Lin Ran’s words, Xue Gie subconsciously raised her hand to touch her forehead, but just as she was about to raise her hand, she suddenly stopped. “Lord Lin, you must be joking. This is my face. Why would I need a mask?”
Lin Ran sneered and raised his eyebrows provocatively. “Move your eyebrows if you dare.”
“Well…”
Xue Gie narrowed her eyes. After a moment, she finally gave in. “May I ask how Lord Lin saw through it?”
“Your expression hasn’t changed since you appeared.”
Lin Ran pursed his lips and smiled smugly, as if he had completely forgotten that he couldn’t move. “I know a person who’s especially good at making masks. If you need a good one, I’ll introduce my friend to you.”
Xue Gie was stunned for a moment. Before she could speak, Lin Ran changed the topic and said coldly, “You poisoned me before you even showed up. If you can’t explain yourself, I’ll make sure you can’t leave this forest today!”
Although it was difficult for Lin Ran to even move a finger now, the aura of a Half-Saint was not affected.
A trace of fear flashed across Xue Gie’s eyes, but she quickly smiled. “Lord Lin, you’re really humorous. If I’m not wrong… I’m afraid you can’t even protect yourself now, right?”
Lin Ran’s heart beat fast, but he still looked calm. “You can try.”
Xue Gie smiled without saying anything. She retracted her fair and slender hand into her cloak. When she reached out again, a snow-white saber had already appeared in her hand. With a light wave, it caused a whooshing sound.
Lin Ran’s pupils constricted and he subconsciously looked down at the Yin-Yang Sword on the ground. At this moment, most of the sword was covered in snow, leaving only a small black blade exposed.
“Don’t think about it. You have no chance of winning.”
Xue Gie said with a coquettish smile. She held the saber in her hand and waved it slowly in front of her eyes, as if she was admiring an exquisite hairpin. “Although there’s no need, I still want you to die knowing why.”
“Last night, I made an agreement with the emperor of the Great Yong Dynasty. As long as I take your life before dusk today, the emperor will agree to a request of mine, so…”
At this point, Xue Gie flicked her wrist and the blade of the saber landed on Lin Ran’s shoulder. Her voice was still as pleasant as ever. “I have no choice but to do this, so I’d like to borrow your head. Please fulfill my wish.”
“In your dreams!”
Lin Ran shouted angrily and suddenly used all his strength to fall back. However, even though he reacted quickly enough, his neck was still cut by the saber.
Scarlet blood dripped on the white snow, and Lin Ran’s figure landed heavily on the ground. The snow covering the Yin-Yang Sword was shoveled away, and the black and white hilt was less than an inch away from his fingertips!
“Oh no!”
Xue Gie cried out in surprise. The saber in her hand turned into a stream of light and stabbed into Lin Ran’s hand. Unexpectedly, Lin Ran didn’t reach out to take the sword at all. Instead, he smiled evilly at her.
Almost at the same time, Xue Gie saw a white light flash in front of her eyes, and a broken sword with an exquisite hilt inlaid with dragon patterns appeared in Lin Ran’s hand!
“Five Elements Sword Technique—Fire!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a few faint sword energy swept out with a scorching heat wave!
