Chapter 49: Unlucky Assassin

A cold dagger quickly appeared in Lin Ran's vision.

The long and narrow blade was about a foot long. The back of the blade had teeth, and the blade had a slot. The entire blade emitted a blue luster under the dim light. It was obvious that it had been coated with poison.

In addition, Consort Rong had been hiding very well and only attacked at the last moment. If the empress was standing here, death was surely unavoidable.

Unfortunately, the person standing here was Lin Ran.

He did not know why Consort Rong wanted to assassinate the empress, but with his current cultivation level, Consort Rong's "all-out attack" was almost as slow as a nail.

Seeing the saber beam coming at him, Lin Ran even had time to lean back. Feeling the soft touch on his back, he couldn't help but feel surprised by how busty she was. There was indeed something wrong with Consort Rong.

"Looks like this "Consort Rong" came prepared." Lin Ran thought to himself.
