Chapter 1180: Chapter 1178: Who’s Really in Your Heart, Me or Su Cang? (5 updates)

"Since you’re getting married, let me give you a gift." Lin Bai said lightly with a smile, reaching into his storage bag and pulling out a green fruit, which he handed to her.

Her eyes were misty as she took the fruit that looked like a wild berry and smiled, "What kind of fruit is this?"

Lin Bai smiled faintly, "It’s called Ascension Fruit, a wondrous object of heaven and earth. After you consume it, it will allow your Martial Soul to transcend, presenting endless possibilities for your future in Martial Art!"

"Oh..." Her eyes looked at the Ascension Fruit with added surprise.

Then, a smile playing on her lips, she looked earnestly at Lin Bai and asked, "Is it tasty?"

Thunk!

Lin Bai gazed at her, momentarily bemused...

Is it tasty?

She asked him too.

Seeing Lin Bai giving no response for a long time, she asked again, "Hey, I’m asking if it’s tasty?"

Lin Bai laughed, "I haven’t tasted it, but I guess it should be delicious."

"Then I must try it."

She smiled faintly and placed the Ascension Fruit to her lips, took a gentle bite, and then the fruit transformed into a green mist that infused into her body!

Lin Bai quietly watched her!

After a small bite, she looked at Lin Bai, laughed distastefully, and said, "It’s bitter, not good at all."

Is it bitter?

Lin Bai fell silent.

After consuming the Ascension Fruit, her Martial Soul started to change.

Above her head appeared a purple little bell, her original Martial Soul, capable of controlling Demon Beasts!

The power of the Ascension Fruit then began to alter this small bell, which eventually exploded with a boom, and a brand new Martial Soul began to coalesce above her head.

A flame emerged out of the mist atop her head.

The flame burned as if it were alive!

In just a short time, the flame exploded, and a phoenix reborn from fire soared into the sky.

A regal majesty superior to all, descended from heaven and earth!

The reborn phoenix danced above her head then entered her body.

Afterward, she slowly opened her eyes, her face devoid of any joy, as if this Transcendent Martial Spirit meant nothing to her!

"The wine is also finished!"

"I’m getting married, and I’ve accepted your gift."

"I have to go back now."

She stood up and said with a smile.

She stood up and was ready to leave.

Lin Bai sat on the cliff, looking towards the opposite Cliff, where Feng Bo Cave was visible, and asked faintly, "Do you come here every day to drink? Do you look at Feng Bo Cave every day?"

Upon hearing this, she paused her steps and then laughed, "You misunderstood, if I knew Feng Bo Cave was your residence, then I wouldn’t have come here."

"I’m leaving."

With a slight smile, she descended the cliff.

After leaving the Cliff, the tears in her eyes could no longer be held back and flowed freely.

She cried just like a little girl!

Lin Bai sat on the Cliff for a long time, gazing distantly at the idle chatter inside Feng Bo Cave among Jian Ruohan, Bai Xiaoxiao, and Kang Shiyun.

He saw Kang Yiyang and Tang Bufan holding each other, laughing and crying by turns.

Watching the scenes at Feng Bo Cave!

Then, Lin Bai got up, stepped on his Flying Swords, and returned to Feng Bo Cave.

"Lin Bai, you’re back."

Jian Ruohan and Bai Xiaoxiao called out with a smile when they saw Lin Bai’s return.

"Lin Bai is back, come on, let’s keep drinking," Tang Bufan crawled over, pulling Lin Bai and laughing.

Kang Yiyang slumped in a corner with a silly smile, "Lin Bai, you’re really lucky, this wine pot has just the last bit of good fortune left, and it’s all yours now."

Lin Bai smiled faintly, drank the last of the wine from the pot, his gaze vacant.

Jian Ruohan and Bai Xiaoxiao could tell that Lin Bai seemed troubled.

Bai Xiaoxiao came over and asked, "What’s wrong? You’ve only been gone for a short while, but you came back with such a heavy heart?"

Lin Bai looked at Bai Xiaoxiao and asked, "Xiaoxiao, is the Ascension Fruit tasty?"

Bai Xiaoxiao, puzzled, looked at Lin Bai and then laughed, "Tasty."

Lin Bai asked, "What does it taste like?"

Bai Xiaoxiao smiled sweetly, "Such a wonder naturally tastes rich and delicious. You’re acting so strange today, why ask about this?"

"Sweet?"

Lin Bai’s entire body began to tingle, and the effects of the alcohol on his face gradually subsided as a killing intent slowly coalesced within him.

"Ruohan, what does an Ascension Fruit taste like?"

Lin Bai looked at Jian Ruohan and asked.

Jian Ruohan nodded, "Just as Miss Bai Xiaoxiao said, it’s sweet!"

"Why do you ask such a question?"

Lin Bai fell silent.

"All of you say it’s sweet!"

"But she alone said... it’s bitter!"

"Why?"

Lin Bai stood frozen on the spot, his face marked with a cold expression.

Bai Xiaoxiao and Jian Ruohan both wore a hint of confusion, feeling that Lin Bai was not acting normally!

Standing there, after a long silence, Lin Bai said, "I have some matters to attend to. Xiaoxiao, please take care of the guests for me!"

Having said that, Lin Bai directly left Feng Bo Cave, stepped onto his Flying Sword, and headed straight beyond the Five Peaks!

"Lin Bai!"

Jian Ruohan called out.

Bai Xiaoxiao stopped Jian Ruohan, "Let him go. Some things are not within our power to resolve for him."

Jian Ruohan, curious, asked, "Do you know something? What is it that could make him lose his composure like this?"

Bai Xiaoxiao said with a smile, "Knowing Lin Bai’s temperament, there are only two things that would concern him so deeply: the first is something to do with his relatives, and the second is a woman!"

"He once told me that although he has killed countless people, he believes he has done nothing to feel guilty about in his heart!"

"But there was one thing he once did, to this day it still preys upon his mind..."

Bai Xiaoxiao spoke indifferently, "Although I don’t know what this matter is, I believe it must have something to do with a woman!"

Upon hearing Bai Xiaoxiao’s words, Jian Ruohan instantly fell silent!

Lin Bai stepped onto a Flying Sword and headed straight for the region beyond the Five Peaks!

Along the way, the Flying Sword quickly leaped across the vast expanse of sky over the Five Peaks!

Lin Bai’s countenance grew increasingly grim!

His demeanor resembled the eerie calm before the coming of a storm!

"Xiaoxiao said it’s sweet!"

"Ruohan also said it’s sweet!"

"Only you said it’s bitter!"

"Why is it bitter?"

"Ye Suxin! What on earth are you thinking!"

"If you’re unwilling to marry Su Cang, all you need to do is say the word, and I, Lin Bai, will immediately turn against Miracle Ridge, even if it means slaughtering everyone there, I will not hesitate!"

"What exactly are you thinking!"

"In your heart, is it I or Su Cang!"

Veins popped out on Lin Bai’s forehead, and his face was filled with fury!

The Flying Sword broke through the air, and in the blink of an eye, he reached the boundary of the Five Peaks!

"Halt! To leave the Five Peaks, do you have a Pass Jade Plate?"

Upon reaching the boundary of the Five Peaks, the Warrior guarding the Magic Circle immediately appeared and called out to Lin Bai!

"Out of my way!" In a fit of rage, Lin Bai roared, and his terrifying power mixed with the sound waves, causing these Warriors to spit out blood!

"So powerful!"

These hundred-plus Warriors guarding the Magic Circle were spat out blood, their gazes filled with shock as they looked at Lin Bai!

"Breaking Prohibition!"

After repelling the hundred men, Lin Bai swung his sword and tore a large hole in the Magic Circle shielding the Five Peaks, then his Flying Sword shot out through it!

"He got out?"

"He actually broke through the shielding Great Array of the Five Peaks!"

"This is bad, quickly notify the Sect Leader Supreme!"

The group of Warriors called out in panic.

After forcibly breaking through the Great Array and leaving the Five Peaks, Lin Bai increased his speed on his Flying Sword, heading straight for the Nine Courtyards!

The direction Lin Bai was heading in was the Nine Courtyards!

To be precise, Lin Bai was heading to... the Heavenly Sound Court!

Lin Bai’s Eyes flickered with a cold light as his Flying Sword directly charged into the Heavenly Sound Court!

When Lin Bai arrived on his Flying Sword, the high-ranking Elders and Strong Ones of the Heavenly Sound Court awoke in alarm, rushed out of their dwellings, their faces filled with panic, as if facing a great enemy!

Confronting the many Strong Ones of the Heavenly Sound Court, Lin Bai’s voice was cold and hoarse, his Eyes conveying an ominous glint, "Hong Su, are you there?"
