The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 1276 - 1274: Is There a Secret Treasure in Lin Bai’s Tomb?

Chapter 1276: Chapter 1274: Is There a Secret Treasure in Lin Bai’s Tomb?

Time had passed another year!

Two years had since gone by since the battle on the Five Peaks of the Miracle Ridge where Lin Bai had fought!

After the Tomb of Lin Bai was built, numerous experts came to pay their respects!

Naturally, warriors from the Miracle Ridge and Lingnan also came in secret to probe and confirm whether Lin Bai was indeed dead.

But not one of these warriors who entered the Tomb Mansion came out alive!

It seemed as though the Tomb Mansion devoured anyone who entered, with no one ever emerging again.

Eventually, a shocking secret spread from the Tomb of Lin Bai, claiming that it housed many of Lin Bai’s burial Treasures. This rumor immediately sparked a frenzy among the warriors of Lingdong.

A wave of treasure hunting in the Tomb Mansion of Lin Bai swiftly surged throughout Lingdong!

Countless Sects, Families, and Dynasties all entered the Tomb Mansion of Lin Bai in search of Treasure!

In the Shenwu Kingdom, atop the royal court!

"How did this news spread?" Bai Xiaoxiao stood up from the Dragon Throne and roared coldly at the Civil and Military Officials below!

The officials trembled and hastily knelt down, shivering with fear.

On the left and right sides of the royal court, on the left stood a majestic general in a royal robe, none other than Chu Jiangliu!

And on the right stood a man exuding a sinister air, none other than the strategist Shang Lang!

Emperor Xiao was furiously enraged, causing the officials to tremble violently!

But only Chu Jiangliu and Shang Lang remained calm.

These two were Bai Xiaoxiao’s confidants.

Bai Xiaoxiao’s eyebrows furrowed coldly, "In the Prince Consort’s tomb, there are Treasures from his lifetime of battles, including a Magical Treasure that can change heaven and earth, countless precious Spiritual Medicines... Heh, these people really know how to weave tales!"

Bai Xiaoxiao’s expression grew even colder.

Shang Lang made a bowing gesture with his hands and whispered, "Your Majesty, now is not the time to investigate this matter. We should quickly suppress this momentum!"

Bai Xiaoxiao nodded lightly, "Correct!"

"Chu Jiangliu!"

Bai Xiaoxiao called out softly.

Chu Jiangliu stepped forward, responding, "Your servant is here!"

Bai Xiaoxiao commanded coldly, "You personally lead a million soldiers of the Chu Family’s Army, guard the front of the Prince Consort’s tomb. Any trespassers, regardless of their status or whether they are human, demon, snake, or deity, shall be executed without mercy!"

Chu Jiangliu answered, "Your servant obeys."

Bai Xiaoxiao nodded lightly.

Shang Lang spoke softly, "Your Majesty, since the Sword Prince’s tomb is guarded by Prince Chu, those lowly people would hardly dare to make a rash move. Now, we can perhaps trace the origin of this news."

"I have indeed received some information here."

Shang Lang said with a smile.

Bai Xiaoxiao looked towards Shang Lang.

Shang Lang smiled slightly, "It seems that this was intended by the Miracle Ridge, but was arranged by the Holy Night Dynasty..."

Bai Xiaoxiao stated, "Two years ago, the Prince Consort fought on the Miracle Ridge, crippling the cultivation of Ye Wuhuan, the ruler of the Holy Night Dynasty, and subsequently, the dynasty fell into his daughter Ye Yaying’s hands!"

"But Ye Yaying only managed the Holy Night Dynasty for just three months before she was killed by Diao Yiran."

"This woman, to think she controlled the Holy Night Dynasty in one night and became the Emperor!"

Bai Xiaoxiao spoke indifferently.

Shang Lang stated, "Your Majesty, this Diao Yiran, merely a woman, definitely lacks the capabilities like Emperor Xiao to control the Holy Night Dynasty."

"There must be a bigger player pulling the strings behind her."

Bai Xiaoxiao demanded coldly, "Who else could it be?"

"The Supreme Sect Leader of the Miracle Ridge, Su Zhan!"

Bai Xiaoxiao declared coldly, "Good, the time has come to settle the Prince Consort’s vengeance with Su Zhan."

"Shang Lang, make arrangements. In three months, take down the Holy Night Dynasty!"

"Now in Lingdong, once one of the three great dynasties, the Fengyun Dynasty has already been devoured by Shenwu Kingdom, and the Heavenly Sword Dynasty has also surrendered to the power. Now, only the Holy Night Dynasty remains for me."

Bai Xiaoxiao said indifferently.

"After the Holy Night Dynasty is taken down, this Lingdong region will completely belong to Shenwu Kingdom!"

Bai Xiaoxiao’s eyes twinkled with an unusual brightness.

Shang Lang laughed and said, "Then I must congratulate Emperor Xiao for pioneering a unified Lingdong Region for all eternity!"

Bai Xiaoxiao said indifferently, "Go prepare."

...

Half a month later, Bai Xiaoxiao, accompanied by Chu Jiangliu, went to the Tomb Mansion of Lin Bai!

"Your Majesty, it is sufficient for your servant to watch over the Tomb Mansion; there is no need for Your Majesty to go in person," Chu Jiangliu said indifferently.

Bai Xiaoxiao said, "The Holy Night Dynasty has spread rumors that the Prince Consort’s Tomb Mansion contains astonishing treasures, merely aiming to stir up troubles in Lingdong and provoke the warriors of Lingdong to search for the corpse of the Prince Consort!"

"Hehe, those people from Lingnan won’t rest until they see the corpse of the Prince Consort."

"Chu Jiangliu, are the people in the Tomb Mansion ready?"

Chu Jiangliu nodded and replied, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty. I have made all the arrangements. This past year, I have trained almost a thousand Death Warriors who have reached the Great Perfection of the Heavenly Elixir Realm, all positioned inside the Tomb Mansion."

"Moreover, I have enlisted Lingdong’s top disguise master, ’Thousand-Faced Gentleman’, to create a corpse of the Sword Prince!"

"This matter is known only by me and the Thousand-Faced Gentleman."

"After creating the corpse of the Sword Prince, I have already killed him, hence this matter is absolutely confidential!"

"Furthermore, the Array Masters who built the Tomb Mansion, as per Your Majesty’s decree, were all eliminated after the completion of their task. This past year, almost 360,000 Array Masters have not been spared!"

"Even if outsiders break into the Tomb Mansion, they will only find the fake corpse of the Sword Prince and will be unable to locate the whereabouts of the Yin Yang Hall!"

Chu Jiangliu said indifferently.

Bai Xiaoxiao nodded slightly, "That’s good!"

"Let’s go; it has been a long time since I visited him."

Bai Xiaoxiao took a step and walked towards Lin Bai’s tomb.

Accompanied by Chu Jiangliu, Bai Xiaoxiao arrived at the core of the Tomb Mansion—the Yin Yang Hall!

Chu Jiangliu tactfully did not follow her inside but stood outside the Yin Yang Hall, waiting.

If someone else were here, they would be astonished!

Chu Jiangliu, now the founding general of Shenwu Kingdom, a top-ranking noble of the Shenwu Kingdom in the Lingdong Region, so sought after that countless warriors despaired at not getting an audience with him, countless women clamoring to climb into his bed, he who even disregarded the Miracle Ridge, was now standing respectfully guarding the door?

Bai Xiaoxiao entered the Yin Yang Hall quietly.

She looked from afar at the jade platform and the person in front of it.

"It’s been two years, and you really haven’t moved at all."

As Bai Xiaoxiao entered, her face showed a hint of coldness.

Bai Xiaoxiao finished speaking, Lin Bai did not respond.

Then, Bai Xiaoxiao said, "Sect Leader Supreme Su Zhan of the Miracle Ridge has spread news that your tomb mansion contains hidden treasures, enticing the warriors of Lingdong to search for them!"

"But I’ve already prepared an ambush inside the tomb mansion, and I have tasked Chu Jiangliu to guard the outside!"

"These few months, it might be a bit noisy outside."

Bai Xiaoxiao said to Lin Bai’s descendants softly.

Her face was filled with pain and helplessness; she fervently wished that Lin Bai could come over and embrace her, just like old times... when she was still the First Princess and Lin Bai was merely an unnoticed Sword Cultivator.

After a long wait, Lin Bai did not respond.

Bai Xiaoxiao said, "I’m going to deal with the Holy Night Dynasty now. Once I stabilize the situation in Lingdong, I will launch a war against the Miracle Ridge. By then, I will dominate both Lingdong and the Miracle Ridge, and Shenwu Kingdom will become the strongest dynasty in the history of Lingdong!"

"Lin Bai, Ye Suxin is already dead, and the child is dead too."

"I hope you can pull yourself together! Don’t forget the enemies you face!"

"And your vengeance!"

Bai Xiaoxiao said indifferently.

After speaking, Bai Xiaoxiao left the Yin Yang Hall!

Hearing Bai Xiaoxiao’s final words, Lin Bai’s lifeless eyes finally regained a hint of color...
