177 Heading to the Front Line

Seeing Huo Qiyun fall from the sky, the empress was shocked. 𝐟𝙧ℯ𝑒𝒘𝐞𝒃𝗻𝒐ѵ𝘦𝑙.com

This place was a thousand feet above the ground. If he fell to the ground like this, Huo Qiyun would either die or be crippled!

“Lin Ran! What are you…”

The empress looked anxious and was about to question Lin Ran, but before she could ask, she was overwhelmed by a wave of dizziness. When she looked around again, she was already standing on solid ground.

At the same time, Huo Qiyun was falling down from the sky with a deafening cry.

!!

The empress’s heart was in her throat, but Lin Ran didn’t even bat an eyelid. He reached out and caught Huo Qiyun, who was falling.

At this moment, Huo Qiyun had already closed his eyes and was prepared to die. After being placed on the ground, he only came back to his senses after half a minute.

Thinking of what had just happened, Huo Qiyun immediately felt angry. He covered his face with his left hand and punched Lin Ran with his right hand.

“Are you crazy? Why did you hit me?”

Huo Qiyun widened his eyes and said angrily. As soon as he finished speaking, the other side of his face was hit hard. Instantly, his vision darkened and he fell to the ground.

When the empress saw how unreasonable Lin Ran was, she immediately looked displeased. “Lin Ran! Just tell Qiyun what he did wrong. Why did you hit him the moment we met?!”

“He took the slaps for you.”

Lin Ran glared at the empress coldly. Although his tone was still respectful, it was obvious from his clenched fists that he was trying his best to suppress the anger in his heart.

The empress was frightened by Lin Ran’s gaze and couldn’t speak properly. “W-What do you mean? Are you saying I did something wrong?”

“You think you didn’t do anything wrong?”

Lin Ran gritted his teeth and asked coldly, “As the emperor of a country, how can you go to the front line just like that? Don’t you know what you are capable of? Hundreds of thousands of people are dying on the battlefield now. What makes you think you won’t be one of them?”

“Lin Ran! You…”

“What? I think you’re just there to cause trouble!”

Lin Ran interrupted the empress and scolded, “Do you think by going to the front line, you’ll be a good emperor? Do you know how many people they need to mobilize to protect you?”

“I—”

“What? You’re a grown-up. Why are you still so childish when you do things? Do you really think we’ll win the war the moment you show up? What if you die? How much will it affect morale? Have you thought about all this?”

Lin Ran shouted sternly with a red face. This time, he was really angry. As soon as his temper flared up, he forgot about who he was talking to.

The empress was intimidated by Lin Ran’s aura and her eyes instantly turned red.

Huo Qiyun couldn’t take it anymore. He covered his face with both hands and said angrily, “Lin Ran! You’re going too far! How can you talk to His Majesty like that?”

“You still have the cheek to open your mouth? I haven’t said anything about you yet!”

Lin Ran instantly turned to look at Huo Qiyun. “You know who she is, don’t you? She wants to fool around, and you are fooling around with her. Can’t you think of the consequences? You’ve been in the martial world for decades. Where did all your experience go?”

Huo Qiyun was clearly angry after being scolded. However, when he saw Lin Ran raise his right hand, he suppressed his anger and didn’t retort.

Fortunately, after Lin Ran vented his anger, he slowly calmed down. He looked at the two of them and said coldly, “Stop standing there! Return to the palace!”

“No!”

The empress grabbed Lin Ran. “I want to go to the front line!”

Lin Ran rolled his eyes. “So everything I said just now was for nothing, right?”

“That’s not what I meant.” 𝒇r𝙚𝙚𝓌𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜𝘷𝗲𝘭.c૦𝑚

The empress shook her head, her eyes filled with determination. “But the soldiers at the front line are all fighting a bloody battle for the Heavenly Saint Dynasty. As the emperor of a country, how can I hide cowardly at the back?”

“If that’s the reason, you don’t have to go.”

Lin Ran took a deep breath and looked up at the sky. “This war will end tomorrow morning at the latest.”

The empress looked puzzled when she heard this. Huo Qiyun seemed to have thought of something and got up from the ground. He went to Lin Ran’s side and asked excitedly, “Are you going to the Northern Border personally? Then can you bring me along?”

“Get lost! I’m not going to the Northern Border!”

Lin Ran rolled his eyes at Huo Qiyun and roughly explained his agreement with Liu Hongshan.

When he heard that Liu Hongshan planned to become the emperor in the Heavenly Saint Dynasty and then submit to the Great Yong Dynasty, Huo Qiyun suddenly revealed a strange expression, but it disappeared in an instant.

After Lin Ran finished speaking, the empress thought for a moment and asked suspiciously, “Can the enemy be trusted?”

“I think so.”

Lin Ran nodded and said, “I can feel that he doesn’t care who wins or loses this war.”

The empress nodded thoughtfully before shaking her head. “No, I still have to go to the Northern Border!”

“Are you crazy?”

Lin Ran was so angry that he laughed. He looked at the empress and asked helplessly, “I’ve already made it very clear that this war will end soon… Did I not make myself clear, or do you not believe me?”

“Lord Lin, what are you talking about? I naturally believe you, but I don’t believe that Liu Hongshan.”

The empress rubbed the corners of her red eyes. Before Lin Ran could speak, she continued, “The Great Yong Dynasty has suffered great casualties this time. I’m afraid they won’t retreat empty-handed just like that. I know that the front line is dangerous, but aren’t you back now?”

“Let’s go and take a look at the situation first. If the Great Yong army retreats before tomorrow morning, we’ll return. If the Great Yong army continues to attack, I’ll lead the army personally. Since you’re around, I’ll be safe, right?”

Lin Ran was speechless. He had to admit that he was convinced by the empress’s analysis.

Actually, Lin Ran was also a little suspicious of Liu Hongshan. His original plan was to send the empress back to the palace before going to the front line to see what was going on.

However, now that the empress insisted on going, Lin Ran could only go with the flow. After all, he and Huo Qiyun were both here. If they could not keep the empress safe, there would be no safe place in the Heavenly Saint Dynasty for her.

“Fine.”

Lin Ran sighed and nodded in agreement. “But that, I have to go somewhere first.”

When the empress heard this, she looked puzzled. “Where? Is it very important?”

Lin Ran nodded with a solemn expression. “I have to save Xiao Huai first.
