Chapter 92: Qi Deviation
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
When he heard that Huo Qiyun was about to be beaten to death, Lin Ran’s first reaction was that the waiter was joking with him.
Huo Qiyun was at the ninth level of the Senior Martial Master Realm and had a lot of combat experience. How could he almost be beaten to death in this small town in the middle of nowhere.
However, on second thought, unless this waiter was courting death, he would not make such a joke.
Lin Ran hesitated for a moment before deciding to take a look.
He followed the waiter out of the inn. Not far away was a market.
At this moment, the market was filled with people. Everyone tacitly formed a circle. It was obvious that there was something interesting to watch.
The waiter brought Lin Ran to the periphery of the crowd and pointed inside anxiously. “Hurry up and take a look! I saw blood just now!”
“Alright, you can go back now.”
Then, Lin Ran stood on his tiptoes and saw an empty space ten steps wide in the middle of the crowd.
A burly man with a fierce face stood in the middle. He was only wearing a waistcoat and was holding a heavy sword that was as wide as a palm and as tall as half a person. His exposed arms were muscular and he was cursing.
The burly man didn’t look like someone to be trifled with, but Lin Ran narrowed his eyes and knew that the burly man was a low-level martial artist.
Not to mention beating Huo Qiyun to death, such a person was not even qualified to be beaten to death by Huo Qiyun.
“I knew the waiter was foolling me.”
Lin Ran cursed under his breath and was about to go back when he suddenly heard a familiar voice from the crowd. “You’d better kill me now, or I’ll make you wish you were dead!”
This voice sounded weak and powerless.
However, Lin Ran still noticed it because it was Huo Qiyun’s voice!
“Excuse me! Excuse me!”
Lin Ran shouted and squeezed into the crowd. Although he did not use his internal energy, his physical fitness at the Half-Saint realm was not something ordinary people could withstand.
Many people were pushed to the floor and started cursing.
Lin Ran didn’t mind. He squeezed to the side of the empty space and saw Huo Qiyun lying on the ground. However, Huo Qiyun was in an awful state.
Her black hair scattered around, and her childish face was covered in blood. There was a terrifying wound on his left shoulder, and if one looked carefully, they could even see the bones inside. His white clothes were inevitably stained with blood.
However, even so, he still stared fixedly at the burly man with the huge sword. His face was bulging with muscles, and his eyes were filled with anger, as if the person in front of him was his sworn enemy.
Lin Ran rubbed his eyes to make sure that he wasn’t hallucinating. He quickly squeezed out of the crowd and came to Huo Qiyun’s side. He didn’t know whether to laugh or cry as he asked, “Are you addicted to fighting? Can’t you just not fight for a day?”
“I came out to buy something just now and saw him bullying the commoners. Of course I have to interfere!”
Huo Qiyun was talking to Lin Ran, but his eyes were still fixed on the burly man.
Lin Ran turned to look around. He realized that these people were all looking at Huo Qiyun worriedly. When they looked at the burly man with the huge sword, their eyes were filled with fear.
Lin Ran reached out to help Huo Qiyun up, but just as he placed his hand on Huo Qiyun’s body, his expression changed. “Where’s your internal energy? Where’s your sword intent? Where did it go?”
Huo Qiyun panted heavily and glared at Lin Ran. “You still have the cheek to ask me this? It’s all your fault! That sword technique you gave me is not right!”
“Not right? How come?”
“I don’t know!”
Huo Qiyun gritted his teeth and replied, “I came out to buy something just now and saw him bullying the commoners, so I wanted to teach him a lesson. In the end, just as I activated the sword technique you gave me, my entire body was in pain. Then, I couldn’t use any internal energy.”
“It must be a Qi deviation!”
Lin Ran shrugged and said helplessly, “I told you to memorize the sword technique first and then I’ll teach you. Why did you start practicing it without my guidance? Look, now something happened to you!”
Huo Qiyun was about to say something when the burly man with the huge sword suddenly shouted, “Hey! Are you two done? This kid challenged me to a death duel. If you want to collect his corpse, wait for me to kill him!”
“Did you challenge someone to a death duel again?”
Lin Ran’s expression immediately changed. Looking at Huo Qiyun’s miserable appearance, he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “You really have a problem that needs to be fixed.”
Huo Qiyun rolled his eyes with difficulty. “What do you know? It’s illegal to kill someone without challenging him to a death duel.”
“Then good luck.”
Lin Ran shrugged and stood up. “According to the rules of the death duel, outsiders are not allowed to interfere during the duel. I can’t help you even if I want to.”
With that, Lin Ran retreated into the crowd with his arms crossed, looking like he was watching a show.
When the burly man with the huge sword saw this, he could not help but reveal an ecstatic expression.
Although he looked arrogant just now, his heart was pounding. When Lin Ran first stood up, he used his divine sense to test him and felt like he had fallen into a bottomless abyss.
The rules of the death duel prevented outsiders from interfering during the duel,
However, because of the “good deeds” the burly man had done, if Lin Ran disregarded the rules and killed him, the villagers around would definitely not speak up for him.
Therefore, when he saw Lin Ran retreat into the crowd, the burly man was overjoyed.
On the other hand, Huo Qiyun was not so happy.
Seeing that Lin Ran really didn’t care about him, Huo Qiyun’s heart sank. Although he usually bickered with Lin Ran, he knew very well that the only person who could save him now was Lin Ran!
He watched as the burly man with the huge sword walked towards him with a sinister smile.
Finally, Huo Qiyun couldn’t help but say, “Hey! We’ve fought side by side before. Do you really want to see me die here?!”
Lin Ran shrugged and put on a casual smile. “Don’t worry, when you die, I’ll avenge you.”
