The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 1273 - 1271: The Soul of Qinghe!

Chapter 1273: Chapter 1271: The Soul of Qinghe!

Hearing Lin Bai’s desperate wail, both Long Batian and Su Lihai couldn’t help shuddering all over!

Zhao Hansheng looked at Ye Suxin, his gaze taking on a trace of astonishment as he said faintly, "There is actually such an extraordinary woman in this world who is willing to give up her own life to protect another?"

Neither Yejian Jun nor Dong Qian had anticipated that Ye Suxin would suddenly commit suicide!

Long Batian was the first to snap back to reality, glaring at Lin Bai as he roared, "Lin Bai, where is that Fragment?"

Hearing Long Batian once again bringing the conversation back to the main topic, the most important thing now was to find out the whereabouts of that Fragment from Lin Bai’s mouth!

Nothing else mattered!

Zhao Hansheng, Dong Qian, Su Lihai, Yejian Jun, Su Cang, and others all turned their attention back to Lin Bai!

Lin Bai roared, "Azure Dragon Empire, Ninth Prince, Long Batian!"

"Heaven-reaching Sword Sect Elder, Ye Fenghuo!"

"Guardian of the Sect Supreme of the Saint Seal Sect, Dong Qian!"

"Heaven-reaching Sword Sect Junior Sword Master, Yejian Jun!"

"King Li Hai of the Su Dynasty, Su Lihai!"

"Su Dynasty, Su Cang! Su Zhan!"

"Imperial Uncle of the Zhao Royal Dynasty, Zhao Hansheng!"

"If you have the guts, kill me today!"

"Or let me live and leave! Otherwise, under the Heavens and on Earth, within the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, the great expanse within, no one will be able to protect you!"

"Don’t let me live, otherwise your lives, I’ll claim for sure!"

"Now you still want any clues from me? Impossible!"

"Come on, kill me!"

Lin Bai raised his head and routed at Long Batian, Su Lihai, Zhao Hansheng, and others.

Even Long Batian and Dong Qian were frightened by Lin Bai’s angry roar, and for some reason, upon hearing Lin Bai’s roar, a hint of fear arose in their hearts!

Yejian Jun said coldly, "I don’t care about any Fragment, Lin Bai, give me the Token of the Creation Divine Palace!"

Lin Bai replied coldly, "Yejian Jun, you won’t escape either!"

"Wait!"

"Let me live and leave, and one day, I will make your death so cruel that even Yama would find it savage upon seeing it!"

Lin Bai glared at Yejian Jun and roared!

Yejian Jun’s eyes turned ice-cold, and with the Sharp Sword in hand, he said coldly, "The Token of the Creation Divine Palace is in your Storage Bag. After I kill you, I can still obtain it!"

Lin Bai sneered, "Then come on! Kill me!"

Yejian Jun’s eyes became blood-red from Lin Bai’s provocation, and he raised his Sharp Sword, thrusting toward Lin Bai, "You think I don’t dare?"

Buzz—

Yejian Jun, enraged and embarrassed, thrust his sword towards Lin Bai’s throat!

"Stop..." At that moment, Long Batian hurriedly yelled.

Dong Qian stopped Long Batian, saying indifferently, "Let Yejian Jun beat Lin Bai. He has just lost the woman he loved and is blinded by anger."

"He’s not afraid of dying right now, he’s actually seeking death!"

"To extract information from someone who is seeking death is harder than Ascending to Heaven!"

"Let Yejian Jun shake Lin Bai, make him understand the current situation, and then, once we get the information we want, who cares whether Lin Bai lives or dies!"

Dong Qian said indifferently, "Don’t worry, I won’t let Yejian Jun kill Lin Bai that easily! At least until Lin Bai has revealed the information, I won’t let him die!"

Swoosh—

Yejian Jun, with anger in his eyes, struck directly at Lin Bai’s throat.

His gaze was ruthless as if not giving Lin Bai any chance to live!

Lin Bai glared back at Yejian Jun, making no attempt to dodge!

Just as Dong Qian had said, he was now completely out of his mind with anger and didn’t fear death at all!

The sword thrust forward!

Just then!

A light sigh came from between Heaven and Earth.

"Sigh!"

Rumble—

Suddenly, clouds surged and fog rose.

The sky unexpectedly changed color!

Long Batian, Yejian Jun, Su Lihai, and the others all looked up in surprise at the sky.

Lin Bai also noticed the anomaly in the sky.

Above, an enormous black hole tore open, sweeping up everything in the world!

"Devouring..."

Lin Bai looked at the black hole and felt a sense of familiarity.

That was the power of the Devouring Martial Soul!

After the black hole appeared, all the Spiritual Power within heaven and earth, above Miracle Ridge and the Five Peaks, crazily poured into the black hole and was completely devoured by it!

After devouring the terrifying Spiritual Power, the thick Spiritual Power condensed into a massive hand.

That hand smacked down fiercely upon the Five Peaks!

"Not good!"

"Scatter!"

Long Batian and Su Lihai were the first to cry out in alarm and quickly used their movement techniques to dodge away.

And in that instant, the hand struck down violently, causing Long Batian, Su Lihai, Zhao Hansheng and others to vomit blood from their mouths and fly backwards in a pathetic state!

Following that, the hand gently tossed Lin Bai and Ye Suxin away, not injuring Lin Bai but rather flinging him and Ye Suxin away from Miracle Ridge, turning them into two streaks of light, shooting towards the Lingdong Region!

At that moment, the Steel Fork flew up into the air on its own and returned into the darkness, settling above the head of Giant God Gusu!

"Lin Bai, this is the last thing this old man can do for you."

"Remember, within ten years, you must return to suppress the Blood Fiend, and this old man can die without regrets..."

"I no longer have the power of my Remnant Soul to kill them, I can only send you away! Take care of yourself..."

After Lin Bai and Ye Suxin were tossed away, Lin Bai heard a tired and elderly voice in his ears!

"Senior Qinghe!"

Lin Bai’s eyes widened!

Lin Bai could hardly believe the heavy price Qinghe had paid to save him!

This palm might be the last of Qinghe’s remaining soul power, and after it was used up, the soul would shatter!

Perhaps, Qinghe’s remaining soul had already vanished...

"Senior Qinghe!"

Lin Bai once again let out a pained howl to the heavens!

One was the woman he deeply loved!

One was an elder from his own family!

Today, for his sake, one died, and one’s soul scattered!

Lin Bai felt deep self-blame and endless anger in his heart!

"Azure Dragon Empire! Saint Seal Sect! Heaven-reaching Sword Sect! Su Dynasty! Zhao Royal Dynasty!"

"Long Batian, Dong Qian, Zhao Hansheng, Ye Jianjun, Su Cang, Su Zhan, Su Lihai, Ye Fenghuo, you wait for me!"

"I will definitely come looking for you!"

"The hatred of killing my wife, the hatred of killing my son, we will not coexist under heaven!"

Lin Bai’s roar and bellowing sounded as if echoing over the entire Lingdong Region!

At that moment, countless people in the Lingdong Region heard Lin Bai’s angry roar!

...

A month later.

Long Batian, Zhao Hansheng, Ye Jianjun, Ye Fenghuo, Dong Qian, Su Lihai and others sat in the Sect Leader’s Hall on Miracle Ridge.

Su Cang said, "We haven’t found him. The warriors of Miracle Ridge that I’ve sent out have almost turned the Lingdong Region upside down, but there’s still no trace of Lin Bai!"

"The Lingdong Region is so vast, it’s like finding a needle in a haystack, too difficult."

Long Batian said indifferently, "With such severe injuries, he’s probably dead already."

Hearing Long Batian’s words, Su Lihai and Dong Qian both remained noncommittal.

With Lin Bai’s severe injuries, surviving would indeed be a miracle!

Almost all, Dong Qian and Su Lihai, Ye Fenghuo, Ye Jianjun believed that Lin Bai was dead.

Dong Qian stood up and walked out of the Great Hall.

Long Batian called out, "Dong Qian, where are you going?"

Dong Qian said, "Since Lin Bai is dead, there’s no point in me staying here any longer. Now I’m returning to the Saint Seal Sect to report back."

Long Batian said, "You may leave, Long does not stop you, but Dong Qian, I hope your Saint Seal Sect will keep the news about that Fragment a secret."

"Otherwise, if the news of the Fragment gets out, attracting the strong ones from the East Continent, our small Territory of all nations won’t be able to withstand it."

Dong Qian smiled faintly and said, "I understand! Farewell."

After saying this, Dong Qian left Miracle Ridge and returned to Lingnan!

Following him, Zhao Hansheng, Ye Fenghuo, Ye Jianjun, Long Batian, Su Lihai and Su Cang soon left Miracle Ridge one after another.

But Su Zhan remained on the Miracle Ridge, taking the position of the Guardian of the Sect Supreme.

Su Zhan stayed behind, firstly to guard the battlefield of the Red Immortal Sect for the Su Dynasty, and secondly to keep an eye on the affairs of the Lingdong Region, in case Lin Bai was found, which would be the best outcome.
