Chapter 1185: Chapter 1183 Heaven-reaching Sword Sect! Junior Sword Venerate! (5 more)

Ye Wuhuan and Lin Bai wandered the Forbidden Area for a long time, with Lin Bai painstakingly inspecting everything, fearing Ye Wuhuan was deceiving him.

But after five days of searching, Lin Bai found that indeed there was no trace of Su Yanhua in the Forbidden Area or atop the Five Peaks!

"Has he really left?"

"Why is he avoiding me?"

Lin Bai spoke with cold Eyes.

"Half a month ago, after my battle with Yejian Jun, he left that very night."

"So, this means he recognized me."

"No!"

"It wasn’t that he recognized me."

"It’s that he knew all along that I had arrived on the Miracle Ridge!"

As Lin Bai made his way back to Feng Bo Cave, he couldn’t stop pondering, "But those who know my identity and origins on the Miracle Ridge are but a few."

"How could Su Yanhua be so sure that I am Lin Duo’s son?"

"Who exactly told him?"

Lin Bai continued to speak with a dark face.

"He left the Miracle Ridge, and even specifically summoned Ye Wuhuan, Dugu Yun, and Zhao Longtu to declare his destination clearly!"

"He went to Lingnan!"

"Is he asking me to go to Lingnan too?"

"Is he guiding me to Lingnan?"

Lin Bai spoke somewhat puzzled.

"What exactly is the secret here?"

Lin Bai spoke, utterly bewildered.

Having returned to Feng Bo Cave, Lin Bai locked his room door and sat in meditation.

There was one question in Lin Bai’s mind that he just couldn’t figure out.

That was who exactly had revealed his identity to Su Yanhua.

According to the rumors about Su Yanhua, the Holy Elder of the Miracle Ridge, Su Yanhua secluded himself year-round, not minding any affairs on the Miracle Ridge, nor did he wander out.

Even if Lin Bai arrived on the Miracle Ridge, it was impossible for Su Yanhua to know Lin Bai.

Moreover, with so many people surnamed Lin in the Under Heaven, on what basis could Su Yanhua be sure that Lin Bai was Lin Duo’s son?

Someone must have informed him of this news, that’s why he immediately left the night Lin Bai defeated Yejian Jun.

"Who informed Su Yanhua?"

Lin Bai narrowed his Eyes, pondering deeply.

"It seems there are still quite a few people secretly paying attention to me."

"I must be even more cautious in my actions from now on."

Lin Bai took a deep breath, his face turning iron green.

Su Yanhua’s departure on the night Lin Bai defeated Yejian Jun served as a wake-up call for Lin Bai, as if he was telling Lin Bai, "I know you have arrived, and I know who you are!"

"Be careful, countless people in the Under Heaven are watching you in secret!"

This was not good news.

Lin Bai’s Eyes were cold.

"Forget it, I won’t think about it anymore. Once I arrive in Lingnan, probably many things will come to light."

"Lingnan holds too many matters related to my father."

"And there’s also Longqing Feng’s Dragon-Slaying Sword..."

Lin Bai sighed softly, "The day the Creation Divine Palace opens is almost upon us. First, I’ll handle the Creation Divine Palace, then head straight to Lingnan. There’s nothing much left on the Miracle Ridge worth my attention in terms of cultivation resources."

Lin Bai calmed down, preparing to take care of the Creation Divine Palace before embarking for Lingnan!

...

While Lin Bai was diligently practicing in Feng Bo Cave.

Su Cang, accompanied by a group of people, arrived at what was once the Saint Mansion, the residence of Yejian Jun!

"Junior Brother Su Cang, I didn’t expect your visit. May I know the purpose?" Chu Yue came out and asked curiously upon seeing Su Cang and the warriors behind him.

"Senior Brother Chu Yue, I have an appointment with Senior Brother Yejian Jun today, and I have come to see him!"

Su Cang gave a faint smile.

"An appointment?" Chu Yue wondered.

"Chu Yue, let Su Cang in."

Just then, a cold voice came from inside the palace.

"Yes, Senior Brother Ye."

Chu Yue acknowledged with a nod.

Immediately, Su Cang walked into the palace.

In Yejian Jun’s palace, besides Chu Yue, Yan Yu, and Yejian Jun himself, there was another person. He wore a faint, frivolous smile on his face, dressed in blue garments, looking quite unrestrained!

"So Senior Brother Ye Banqiu has already arrived."

Su Cang stepped in and said with a smile.

"Su Brother, you called us here, what is it about?" Ye Banqiu asked with a slight smile.

Su Cang smiled lightly, "There are six of us here, and I believe everyone is unfamiliar with each other. How about we introduce ourselves first, and then we can discuss other matters later?"

Yejian Jun and Ye Banqiu turned their heads and smiled slightly.

"Alright, then I will start." Ye Banqiu said with a smile, "I am Ye Banqiu, one of the directly bred disciples of Heaven-reaching Sword Sect in Lingnan, mentored by Ye Fenghuo!"

Su Cang nodded slightly.

At that moment, a young man next to Su Cang scoffed, "So, you are a direct disciple of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, no wonder you look so familiar."

"I am a disciple of Saint Seal Sect in Lingnan, Qin Beiao!"

The young man said as he cupped his fists.

Ye Banqiu laughed, "So you are Qin Beiao, the famed genius disciple of Saint Seal Sect!"

"Pleased to meet you!"

Ye Banqiu continued with a smile.

Qin Beiao smiled faintly.

Then, another man laughed and said, "The Azure Dragon Empire, the current Crown Prince, Longqing Feng."

——

Upon hearing this, Ye Banqiu immediately took a closer look at Longqing Feng.

"I have long heard that the warrior sent by the Azure Dragon Empire to the Miracle Ridge is extraordinary, but I never expected it to be Your Highness in person." Ye Banqiu gave a slight smile and offered a salute with his fists, "Pleased to meet you."

Longqing Feng laughed, "The pleasure is mine, Ye Banqiu!"

Then, another young man stepped forward and chuckled, "Zhao Royal Dynasty, Zhao Lingshen!"

Longqing Feng laughed, "It seems that I am not the only prince from Lingnan here, Zhao Lingshen, long time no see!"

Zhao Lingshen laughed, "Heh, the comparison between Zhao Royal Dynasty and Azure Dragon Empire is still quite far off!"

Longqing Feng laughed, "If you manage to find that item, I suppose the Azure Dragon Empire would have no part in it anymore."

Zhao Lingshen gave a mysterious smile.

"And the last one would be me," Su Cang said with a laugh. "From the Su Dynasty’s Royal Family, Su Cang."

Around them, every warrior was from distinguished dynasties and sects of Lingnan, all outstanding disciples!

Direct disciple of Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, Ye Banqiu!

Current Crown Prince of the Azure Dragon Empire, Longqing Feng.

Member of the Su Dynasty’s Royal Family, Su Cang!

Genius disciple of the Saint Seal Sect, Qin Beiao!

Crown Prince of Zhao Royal Dynasty, Zhao Lingshen!

The only one remaining was Yejian Jun!

Longqing Feng laughed, "Since the other six of us have spoken about our identities, what about you, Yejian Jun?"

As Longqing Feng spoke, the other warriors curiously turned towards Yejian Jun.

Only Su Cang and Ye Banqiu remained silent with smiles, as if they had already known Yejian Jun’s identity!

Yejian Jun said with a gentle smile, "Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, Junior Sword Venerate, Yejian Jun!"

Clang!

Hearing Yejian Jun pronounce these words, both Longqing Feng and Qin Beiao suddenly changed their expressions, looking at Yejian Jun in astonishment!

"The Junior Sword Venerate of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect!"

Longqing Feng narrowed his eyes, deeply gazing at Yejian Jun.

The Junior Sword Venerate, the future patriarch of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, commanded an elevated status, and this person must also possess extraordinary talent in the art of the sword, not necessarily causing a stir but definitely outshining his peers to assume the position of Junior Sword Venerate!

In terms of status, only the Crown Prince of the Azure Dragon Empire, Longqing Feng, could rival him among those present.

After a moment of astonishment among the crowd, Su Cang said with a smile, "Well, now that everyone is acquainted with each other."

"Let’s move on to the main issue."

"The purpose of everyone’s gathering at the Miracle Ridge... is to locate a particular fragment from within the Spirit Sword Sect!"

"This fragment relates to two individuals, Lin Bai and Jian Xuan!"

Su Cang said lightly.

Upon mentioning the fragment, all the warriors looked at Su Cang with anticipation.
