Su Jiannan nodded in agreement.
Lin Bai then said, "Since the Sect Leader agrees, if we still have half a month until the Martial Arts Competition, let’s set off to the Imperial Palace of Dayue Kingdom. Maybe we can draw out some experts from the Human Elixir Realm!"
Su Jiannan said, "Alright, Ji Bei, Ji Bai, count all the warriors within the Spirit Sword Sect who are in the late stage of the Half-step Divine Pill Realm or above. Tonight, we will set off for Dayue Kingdom!"
"On our journey, we must be cautious and not expose our trail too early!"
Ji Bei and Ji Bai both nodded in agreement, their expressions utterly solemn.
Nowadays, many people are eyeing Jian Xuan as a meal, including Canghai Yuntai Palace, the Fire Palace, and the Edgeless Sect. They all want to know what kind of secrets Jian Xuan and the Spirit Sword Sect hold!
Actually, even more people focusing on Jian Xuan are the super dynasties and super sects from the 72 states of Lingnan behind Canghai Yuntai Palace, the Fire Palace, and the Edgeless Sect.
Deep into the night, over fifty elders and disciples from the Spirit Sword Sect who were in the late stage of the Half-step Divine Pill Realm or above quietly left the sect and headed straight for Dayue Kingdom. Along the way, they didn’t expose any trace of their movements.
However, the next day.
A shocking piece of news spread between Shenwu Kingdom and Dayue Kingdom.
Lin Bai of the Spirit Sword Sect had announced that he would force the human Elixir Realm masters of the Moon Sect to collect the body of the King of Sheng Yue from the Forbidden Summit, otherwise he would kill the King of Sheng Yue leaving him in pieces.
This news immediately caused an uproar in Dayue Kingdom and surrounding Martial Arts Empires of Shenwu Kingdom.
The Dongling First Sword Cultivator was so arrogant, claiming that he wants the Moon Sect to collect the body?
Did he really believe he was undefeatable in the world?
Many people thought that Lin Bai was becoming arrogant.
Overconfidence leads to defeat!
Currently, many warriors in Dayue Kingdom and Shenwu Kingdom are Enjoy reading on NovelHub - your free online novel platform.
In the Imperial City of the Shenwu Kingdom.
Chu Jiangliu stuttered, "That’s what the Sword Prince said!"
"What!" the First Princess trembled with rage, grit her teeth and said, "He is really infuriating! Does Lin Bai want to die? The Moon Sect has more than a dozen warriors in the Human Elixir Realm! If he angers all of them, will he be able to leave after killing the King of Sheng Yue?"
"Didn’t he learn anything from the lesson given by Canghai Yuntai Palace?"
The First Princess slammed the table in anger.
Chu Jiangliu also thought Lin Bai had crossed a line and asked, "Then Your Highness, what should we do?"
The First Princess replied, "Mobilize a million troops to go to the Southern Region’s frontier, and instruct all units to prepare for a great battle!"
Chu Jiangliu said, "Your Highness, we can’t do that. We have just signed a truce with Dayue Kingdom. If we mobilize large forces to the Southern Region at this time, I am afraid we might have to fight Dayue Kingdom again!"
"Peace did not come easily, Your Highness, please reconsider!"
"Besides, even though Sword Prince said those words, the Human Elixir masters of the Moon Sect may not take the bait!"
Chu Jiangliu tried to persuade her earnestly.
The First Princess’s face turned iron green. She pulled her hair in frustration and said, "Chu Jiangliu, what wrong did I do in my previous life to fall in love with such a man!"
"He doesn’t do his job but creates trouble everywhere. He’s a womanizer!"
"Hasn’t the lesson from Canghai Yuntai Palace been enough? If it wasn’t for the joint forces of Xi Jianke and me, could he have left Canghai Yuntai Palace so easily?"
"Did I destroy the world in my past life? Is it a divine punishment that Lin Bai was sent to punish me in this life?"
The First Princess said angrily.
Seeing the enraged First Princess, Chu Jiangliu, kneeling on the ground, didn’t even dare to raise his head. He said in a low voice, "After leaving Canghai Yuntai Palace, Sword Prince killed three Human Elixir Realm warriors from Canghai Yuntai Palace..."
The First Princess glared at him and said, "So, are you saying that I was wrong to save him? Was I a nosy dog? Did I eat too much and mobilize over twenty million troops in the middle of the night to save him?"
"No, no, I didn’t mean that," Chu Jiangliu said hastily and fearfully.
The first princess rubbed her temples, sighed lightly in resignation and said, "Oh well, it’s my own fault for falling for a man who isn’t yet grown-up. I shouldn’t worry about him, but who should I worry about..."
After saying this, the first princess remained silent for a long time, not saying anything more.
Chu Jiangliu hesitantly asked, "So, your Highness, what should we do?"
The first princess said, "Send someone to Spirit Sword Sect to find out what Lin Bai is planning!"
"Yes, yes, I’ll go right away!"
Upon hearing her words, Chu Jiangliu hastily slipped away from the palace in a fit of relief.
In the presence of the furious princess, Chu Jiangliu was scared into breaking out in a cold sweat, not even daring to breathe out loud.
The news that Lin Bai had sent high-level practitioners from the Shengyue Sect to recover bodies from the Forbidden Summit of Dayue Kingdom caused a sensation and outright anger among the Human Elixir Realm elders within the Shengyue Sect.
The king of Shengyue responded, "Execution of Lin Bai’s at the top of the Forbidden Summit, his head will hang on the city wall for three months!"
Upon hearing the king’s response, both Shenwu Kingdom and Dayue Kingdom’s warriors were stirred with excitement.
This public challenge was filled with the smell of gunpowder.
One was the first sword cultivator of Lingdong.
The other was the first sabre cultivator of Lingdong.
The confrontation between these two was eagerly anticipated. The taste of gunpowder was already so strong before the battle even began, making many warriors even more interested in the upcoming battle.
When the King of Shengyue responded, countless warriors from all directions rushed to the imperial city of Dayue Kingdom in eager anticipation of the imminent clash!
After hearing Shengyue Sect’s response,
Lin Bai said another sentence.
Suddenly, this sentence, like a bomb, exploded in the hearts of all the warriors.
Lin Bai said, "The king of Shengyue need not come, let the Human Elixir Realm practitioners from Shengyue Sect to fight against me."
A warrior at the Great Perfection of Half-step Divine Pill Realm wants to challenge a master of the Human Elixir Realm?
Don’t you know that the power of spiritual power and spiritual body is not something that a mere mortal warrior like you can match?
From these words, many warriors heard not only a challenge to Shengyue Sect’s Human Elixir Realm warriors but more blatantly, his disdain for the King of Shengyue.
"Lin Bai already felt that the King of Shengyue was not worthy of fighting against him!"
And after Lin Bai’s second public challenge,
The King of Shengyue retorted, "Rubbish is always the loudest! I will definitely take your head on the Forbidden Summit!"
After the King of Shengyue’s retort, many were waiting for Lin Bai’s response.
Regrettably, after waiting for five or six days.
Lin Bai did not respond.
However, on the evening of the sixth day, a bell and plaque were delivered to the entrance of the Shengyue Sect!
Giving a bell, was in itself an omen of bad luck.
Giving a bell was synonymous with the phrase "to attend a funeral", cursing the recipient to die.
The characters on the plaque made all of the Human Elixir Realm warriors within the entire Shengyue Sect even more furious! They all vowed to kill Lin Bai on the Forbidden Summit in order to vent their anger!
The plaque read: "Shengyue Sect’s Human Elixir Realm warriors, eat shit!"
Signed: Presented by Lin Bai to all the Human Elixir Realm experts of Shengyue Sect!
