Chapter 227: Advice from the Enemy

Lin Ran hesitated when he heard this. Although he had just confirmed that Liu Hongshan was not armed, with their cultivation levels, it did not matter if they were armed or not if they wanted to kill a low-level martial artist like the empress.

However, their hiding place had already been discovered. If they did not let the empress come out, he would seem like he was afraid of Liu Hongshan.

"Why did you come out?"

Lin Ran immediately shielded the empress behind him and handed her the Thunderball Sword. "This person has impure motives. Leave first. I'll hold him back."

"That won't be necessary."
