A thin fog quickly appeared in the air and surrounded Xuan Wushang and Liu Hongshan with the wind.

As soon as the fog thickened, Xuan Wushang immediately questioned, “How did he find that place?”

“How would I know?”

!!

Liu Hongshan frowned, as if he was a little dissatisfied with Xuan Wushang’s attitude. “When I arrived, he had already entered Thousand Blades City. If you want to know how he found it, you can just ask him!”

“You…”

Xuan Wushang revealed a sullen expression, but in the end, he sighed. “Uncle, I know you’re angry, but this matter concerns the future of the Great Yong Dynasty. In front of the enemy, you and I should unite.”

“Unite?”

Liu Hongshan sneered. Looking at Xuan Wushang, who was clearly worried, he thought for a moment and said, “You don’t have to worry too much. Although I don’t know how he found it, I think he must have done it by accident.”

Xuan Wushang’s eyes lit up. “What exactly do you mean?”

“I don’t know. It’s just a feeling.”

Liu Hongshan shook his head with a hint of fear on his face. “After all, if he finds out the secret of Thousand Blades City, he won’t leave with me so easily.”

Xuan Wushang nodded thoughtfully. After pondering for a moment, he said, “Uncle, just in case, you should go to Thousand Blades City again to check.”

Liu Hongshan nodded to indicate that there was no problem. Then, he turned around and walked into the white fog.

After passing through the white fog, Liu Hongshan suddenly thought of something and wanted to go back. However, when he turned around, the white fog had already quietly dissipated and Xuan Wushang was nowhere to be seen.

“He’s still so elusive!”

Liu Hongshan muttered softly and looked at the Iron City from afar before flying towards the forest.

…

In the Iron City.

Because it was too late, Ye Jin had already returned to her room.

Lin Ran lay on the only furniture in the room—the bed made of unknown metal. To his surprise, this bed was much more comfortable than he had imagined.

The metal bed looked flat, but there were actually some curves on the surface. These curves would evenly share the gravity of Lin Ran’s body. Instead of saying that he was lying on the bed, it was more accurate to say that he was embedded here.

Feeling the coldness of the metal, Lin Ran’s mind became much clearer.

Ye Jin’s words replayed in his mind. This little girl clearly had not received any confidentiality training, so even if she was quite vigilant, her unintentional words still revealed a lot of information.

For example, the Iron City was a relatively independent city. Although it was under the management of the Great Yong Dynasty, most of the time, the people in the city were self-sufficient.

Compared to the “City of Great Yong”, the Iron City was more like a small country attached to the Great Yong Dynasty. However, this was Lin Ran’s own analysis. There might be some differences in the actual situation.

Unfortunately, the information was not helpful to Lin Ran because it could not explain the problem Lin Ran encountered.

After thinking for a while, Lin Ran reached into his pocket and took out a small cloth bag. After opening it, there were a few small metal balls he had taken from the junk pile today.

Lin Ran had asked Ye Jin before, and she said that these metal balls were scraps thrown away by the blacksmith. However, from her fearful expression towards the metal balls, it was obvious that these things were not as simple as “scrapes”.

Under the dim oil lamp, the green metal balls looked even smoother, but when he held them in his hand, he realized that they were rough.

Lin Ran picked up one and looked at it carefully. Before he could figure it out, he suddenly smelled a strange smell.

The smell was not pleasant, but it was not unpleasant either. It smelled like rust mixed with copper. At the same time, there was a faint smell that Lin Ran was very familiar with, but he couldn’t remember it at the moment.

“What exactly is this?”

Lin Ran muttered and brought the metal ball closer, but the smell was much weaker.

Lin Ran couldn’t help but frown at this abnormal situation. A while ago, he was a little sleepy, but now, his sleepiness was all swept away.

Lin Ran sat on the edge of the bed and took the metal ball to the oil lamp to observe carefully. Just as he took the metal ball over, the strange smell appeared.

Looking at the flickering flame, Lin Ran suddenly had an idea. He guessed that this smell must have been produced by heat.

Previously, these metal balls were piled up in the alley, so they didn’t smell much. Later, Lin Ran put them in his arms for a few hours, so the smell was produced by his body temperature.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense. Lin Ran immediately placed the metal ball on the flame of the oil lamp.

As it turned out, Lin Ran was right.

As soon as the flame came into contact with the surface of the metal ball, a strange smell that was several times stronger than before spread through the room.

Lin Ran’s expression changed. After the smell became several times stronger, he finally remembered what that familiar smell was—it was the smell of blood.

Looking at the metal ball wrapped in the flames, Lin Ran’s expression gradually turned solemn. As if he was scolded, he suddenly swung his hand, and the metal ball flew out of his hand and smashed into the metal wall, making a loud clang.

A deafening sound echoed in the room. Almost at the same time, the sound of someone coming downstairs was heard from outside.

Lin Ran came back to his senses and hurriedly picked up the metal ball and wrapped it up. Just as he put it away, Ye Jin barged in.

Ye Jin’s hair was a little messy. It was obvious that she had fallen asleep. Under the coat that was draped over her shoulders, the close-fitting shirt covered her slender body, revealing a mature curve that did not match her age.

After entering, Ye Jin looked around to make sure that there was nothing unusual before looking at Lin Ran. “What happened?”

“I accidentally fell to the ground when I flipped over on the bed just now.”

Lin Ran replied with a stiff expression. Afraid that Ye Jin wouldn’t believe him, he added, “I’m used to sleeping in a big bed at home.”

Ye Jin was stunned for a moment before feeling amused. “You scared me to death. I thought that a burglar broke in!”

Just as Lin Ran was about to let Ye Jin go back to sleep, his gaze accidentally landed on Ye Jin’s neck. Suddenly, his eyes narrowed. “Why do you have that?”

Ye Jin followed Lin Ran’s gaze and looked down. It turned out that half of a necklace was sticking out of her collar. She smiled and replied sadly, “This is what my mother left for me… Do you know it?”

“I know him too well!”

Lin Ran’s expression became even stranger because the style of this necklace was exactly the same as the necklace belonging to the empress!
