After about fifteen minutes, all the sounds disappeared. Lin Ran waved his sword and slashed out a few fire sword energies, instantly brightening up the surroundings.

After narrowing his eyes to get used to the light, Lin Ran observed his surroundings. This was a stone room ten steps square. There were flat and hard stone walls everywhere.

If it were anyone else, they would definitely wonder how they got in. However, Lin Ran knew the mechanism in Mount Sword. It was not complicated to form a sealed stone room.

Looking around and seeing that there was nothing unusual, Lin Ran sneered and asked disdainfully, “Are you planning to trap me here? Then you’ll be disappointed. The last time I was trapped here, I dug a way out, not to mention—”

At this point, Lin Ran paused for a moment. A white light flashed in his hand, and the Ten Miles Dragon Roar appeared in his palm. “You might not know this, but I can also control the mechanism here.”

It was still quiet. Lin Ran couldn’t be bothered to waste his breath. He held the hilt of the sword with both hands. Then, a glint flashed across his eyes, and the dragon pattern gem at the end of the sword hilt began to flicker at an extremely fast frequency!

The originally silent stone room seemed to have suddenly come to life and began to change drastically!

“Stop!” A deep voice came from somewhere.

Lin Ran was stunned for a moment before his expression turned strange. He asked in disbelief, “Huo Qiyun?”

“It’s me!”

Huo Qiyun’s voice sounded again. It was as if he was enduring some kind of pain.

“Where are you? I’m here to save you!”

Lin Ran asked hurriedly. After saying that, he immediately pricked up his ears, wanting to distinguish the direction of the voice.

“I don’t know where I am. It’s too dark here. I can’t see anything.”

Huo Qiyun’s voice sounded again. Lin Ran couldn’t help but be stunned because he realized that the voice was coming from all directions at the same time!

Lin Ran heard the voice very clearly. It sounded different from the echo in the cave. It sounded like Huo Qiyun was everywhere, but also like…

Lin Ran didn’t dare to continue thinking about it. He quickly composed himself and asked in a calm tone, “Then do you remember what happened? How is Xiao Huai? Is she with you?”

“What happened…”

Huo Qiyun’s voice was filled with confusion. “I can’t remember, but Xiao Huai should be fine.”

“Can’t remember?”

Lin Ran’s expression was a little strange. He and Huo Qiyun had only been apart for two to three days. How could he not remember? Could it be that he had dementia at such a young age?

However, on second thought, Lin Ran felt that it was not impossible. After all, Huo Qiyun was only young on the surface. He had been wandering in the martial world alone for 60 years. It seemed normal for him to have dementia at this age.

Lin Ran continued to ask in a calm tone, “Then tell me what you remember first. What happened here? What’s with the evil aura outside? Who is operating the mechanism here?”

“I don’t know…”

Huo Qiyun’s voice sounded like he was enduring pain, as if Lin Ran’s words had evoked some painful memories.

Lin Ran realized that the situation was bad and was thinking about how to calm Huo Qiyun down when he suddenly heard Huo Qiyun shout, “I remember now! It’s Liu Hongshan! We met Liu Hongshan at Sword Grave!”

“Liu Hongshan!”

Lin Ran’s expression changed drastically. He did not expect Liu Hongshan to hide in Sword Grave after leaving the secret place of the Hundred Fragrance Palace. But how did he know about the existence of Sword Grave?

It had to be known that even Lin Ran only knew the secrets of Mount Sword after reading the books about it in the secret place. Although Liu Hongshan was once the general of the Heavenly Saint Dynasty, with his rank back then, he shouldn’t be qualified to know those secrets.

“Could it be…”

Lin Ran subconsciously narrowed his eyes and suddenly remembered that when the two of them first entered the secret place of the Hundred Fragrance Palace, he had been in a coma for a period of time because of his serious injuries. Could it be that Liu Hongshan had found something during that period of time?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. Lin Ran hurriedly asked, “What happened after you met Liu Hongshan? Did you fight him? Did he say anything?”

“I don’t know… I can’t remember the rest.”

Huo Qiyun said in a muffled voice, “I only remember that I was with Xiao Huai at that time. Liu Hongshan was sitting on that stone platform. After we met, he raised his hand, and then I didn’t know what happened after that.”

After a moment of silence, Lin Ran thought of something and asked in confusion, “From what you said, you should have been in a daze for the past few days. Then how do you know that Xiao Huai is fine?”

“I’m holding her hand.”

Huo Qiyun immediately replied, “I’ve been drifting between the state of awakeness and sleep these past few days, but every time I’m awake, I can feel I’m holding Xiao Huai’s hand. She has a body temperature and a pulse. Although she hasn’t moved, she should be fine.”

Lin Ran heaved a sigh of relief. “Then do you know who’s controlling the mechanism here?”

Huo Qiyun didn’t say anything, as if he was recalling.

Lin Ran knew that Huo Qiyun was not in a good state at the moment, so he didn’t push him too hard. However, he didn’t expect that after waiting for fifteen minutes, Huo Qiyun still didn’t respond.

“Huo Qiyun? Can you hear me?”

Lin Ran called out tentatively, but there was no response.

Thinking of what Huo Qiyun had just said, Lin Ran guessed that he might have gone into a state of sleep again. He felt a little helpless, but he was not worried.

Although he didn’t know what kind of situation Huo Qiyun was in, since he had been like this for the past few days, it shouldn’t be a problem for him to “sleep” again.

At this moment, Lin Ran was more concerned about the mastermind who was controlling the mechanism in Mount Sword.

He shook off Shen Rulin and came alone to meet the other party. If he did not find this person, even if he saved Huo Qiyun, Xiao Huai, and people from the Golden Guards, there would still be a threat here.

But where was the “mastermind”?

Lin Ran frowned and looked around the stone room. After what he had done just now, this place was no longer as square as before.

As he watched, Lin Ran’s eyes suddenly narrowed. At some point, a low cave entrance had appeared on the stone wall behind him.
