Actually, he had a good impression of Lin Ran, but Tu Baichuan promised that as long as he listened to the full conversation between the two of them and told him, he would promote him.

Unfortunately, the two people in the room were too vigilant. When they spoke, their voices were extremely low. With Hong Liquan’s hearing, he couldn’t hear anything clearly. Moreover, with Lin Ran around, he didn’t dare to use his divine sense.

The feeling of not being able to seize the opportunity of promotion was frustrating!

!!

Just as Hong Liquan was hesitating if he should push open the door a crack, the door was suddenly opened from the inside. He subconsciously looked up and met Lin Ran’s eyes.

“What are you doing?”

Lin Ran asked condescendingly with a vigilant expression.

Hong Liquan, who had been caught eavesdropping, froze. He pointed at the ground and replied seriously, “I’m watching the ants move.”

Lin Ran looked in the direction he was pointing. As expected, there was a group of ants moving around. Then, he nodded thoughtfully. “When ants move, it’s a sign that it’s going to rain.”

Seeing that Lin Ran believed him so easily, Hong Liquan found it hard to believe. However, thinking that the two of them had worked together before, he didn’t suspect anything.

Hong Liquan said, “Lord Lin, let’s leave quickly. The commander is still waiting!”

“Alright.” Huo Qiyun nodded.

Hong Liquan led the way. Lin Ran turned around and looked at the empress in the room before following.

After the two of them quickly passed through a few gates, they arrived at another courtyard.

Unlike the courtyard where Lin Ran was interrogated previously, although this courtyard was not big, it was not desolate. There were flowers everywhere and trees everywhere. Even the air was filled with refreshing wood sword intent.

Lin Ran took a deep breath, and his eyes subconsciously flashed with vigilance. This was because other than the wood attribute sword intent, there was also a faint murderous aura in the air.

After walking past the corridor, a few rows of rooms appeared in front of him.

There were a total of four rooms. Other than the one on the left with the door open, the doors and windows of the other three rooms were closed.

In the three rooms with closed doors and windows, Lin Ran could vaguely feel a wave of internal energy fluctuation. The way the internal energy fluctuated was very special. It was not like the fluctuations of ordinary cultivators. It was possible that the wood guards were healing people.

Thinking of this, Lin Ran couldn’t help but feel puzzled.

Only five people came out of Sword Grave with him. Among them, Shen Qingquan died, Shen Rulin escaped, and the remaining Huo Qiyun and Xiao Huai were unconscious.

Lin Ran saw Shen Qingquan die with his own eyes. There was no doubt about this. Then who was healing in the fourth room?

As he thought to himself, Lin Ran quietly released a wisp of his divine sense. In the second and third rooms were Xiao Huai and Huo Qiyun. However, when his divine sense wanted to investigate the fourth room, it was blocked by something.

Lin Ran hesitated for a moment before retracting his divine sense. With his strength, he could easily break through the barrier. However, since the other party wanted to stop outsiders from investigating, it was better not to alert him.

At the same time, the two of them walked to the door of the first room.

Hong Liquan raised his hand and gestured. “Lord Lin, the commander is waiting for you inside.”

“Thank you for leading the way.”

Lin Ran thanked him and walked in. He realized that other than Tu Baichuan, there were many strangers in the room.

Firstly, there were two green-robed men lying on the ground. Their eyes were closed, and they seemed to be unconscious. Beside them, there was another green-robed man treating them. It seemed that they were the Wood Guards who had been injured by Shen Rulin.

This discovery surprised Lin Ran.

He originally thought that “Shen Rulin left after injuring someone” was just an excuse Tu Baichuan came up with to let Lin Ran go chase Shen Rulin and hunt him down.

However, from the looks of it, it seemed that it was true that Shen Rulin injured someone, but he could not guarantee that Tu Baichuan had no intention of killing him. This was because in the corner of the room, there were six Golden Guards wearing white armor.

These six people stood by the wall without revealing themselves. There was no internal energy fluctuation coming from their bodies. Their faces were all covered with white gauze, but even by looking at their cold eyes, one could tell that these people were definitely not weak.

After seeing the situation in the room in an instant, Lin Ran walked up to Tu Baichuan and asked in confusion, “General Tu, I was checking His Majesty’s reply. Why are you in such a hurry to summon me?”

“I need your help.”

Tu Baichuan raised his head at the two men in green on the ground. “These two are from the Wood Guards. They’re also in charge of healing Shen Rulin.”

“Just now, after Shen Rulin woke up, he injured the two of them and disappeared. I only realized it when I came here to check on the situation.”

“I see.”

Lin Ran nodded and continued to pretend to be confused. “But what has this got to do with me?”

Tu Baichuan frowned and looked up at Hong Liquan outside the door. “Didn’t you tell Lord Lin?”

Hong Liquan’s expression changed and he was about to explain when Lin Ran beat him to it. “He said that you want me to chase after Shen Rulin, but I don’t understand why.”

Tu Baichuan turned his gaze back to Lin Ran. “What do you mean why?”

“Why do you want me to go?”

Lin Ran asked with a faint smile, “Now that I’m guilty person, it’s against the rules for me to leave”

Tu Baichuan seemed to have guessed that Lin Ran would say this. He paused for a moment and said, “I haven’t investigated your matter clearly, so you’re not considered a guilty person yet.”

“Before His Majesty decides on your punishment, you will still be the deputy general of the Northern Garrison. You have the responsibility to protect the Heavenly Saint Dynasty. I’m not saying that Shen Rulin will pose a threat to the Heavenly Saint Dynasty, but from the looks of it, it will be wise to bring him back as soon as possible.”

Lin Ran asked with interest, “Oh? Then why aren’t you going?”

When Tu Baichuan heard this, he looked helpless. “I’m indeed supposed to go, but after Brother Shen died, I still have to temporarily take over the position of the commander of the Golden Guards. I’m really busy.”

“Fine.”

Lin Ran chuckled and nodded. He glanced at the six Golden Guards by the wall. “Then I’ll help you today!”

“Thank you for your help, Lord Lin.”

Tu Baichuan cupped his hands with a faint smile. “However, I have something to remind Lord Lin. Your identity is special now. After you go out, it’s best if you don’t do anything suspicious.”

When Lin Ran heard this, the corners of his mouth slowly curled up. “Commander Tu, don’t worry. I know what to do.”
