Chapter 1278 - 1276: Lin Bai! Long Time No See!

Chapter 1278: Chapter 1276: Lin Bai! Long Time No See!

"Who is playing tricks? Come out here!"

Su Tianlong clenched his sharp sword and shouted coldly.

His voice echoed through the empty tomb mansion, like a soul-enslaving spell.

Tap Tap—

Faint footsteps arrived, and a white-robed man walked out of the dim passageway.

Chu Jiangliu and a group of tomb keepers all turned their heads to look, showing a gaze of incredulity and utter astonishment when they saw this white-robed man!

This white-robed man, his garments not only stained with dry blood, but also covered with a thick layer of dust, as if he had not moved for years, the dust piling up like mountains on his body.

His face was haggard and pale, the pallor one of never seeing the sun, sending chills down one’s spine, as if he had just returned from hell!

Stubble covered his face.

What was most appalling were his eyes.

Those eyes, lifeless, filled with a deadly stillness and an empty void.

He walked out of the dim passageway and stood in front of Su Tianlong.

"Sword Prince..."

Chu Jiangliu and the group of tomb keepers looked at this white-robed man in terror!

It was Lin Bai, who had not moved an inch while sitting in the Yin Yang Hall for two years!

And today, he had actually walked out!

In these two years, even if there was a huge commotion in the tomb mansion or Lingdong, he ignored it all, it did not matter to him, and yet, at this moment, he actually walked out!

"Ah!"

"Lin Bai!"

"He is the Five Pinnacle Saint of that year, whose sword skill could reach the heavens!"

"The Lin Bai who vanished after a fight with the six old freaks of Lingnan!"

The several cultivators at the Great Perfection of the Heavenly Elixir Realm accompanying Su Tianlong all exclaimed in surprise!

Su Tianlong might not recognize Lin Bai, as he had been on the Miracle Ridge for less than half a year!

And the warriors who came with Su Tianlong were all warriors from the Miracle Ridge; they had witnessed Lin Bai’s rise with their own eyes!

Hearing the exclamations of the surrounding warriors, Su Tianlong instantly grasped the situation, so this person was Lin Bai!

"Lin Bai, so you didn’t die."

Su Tianlong looked at Lin Bai and said coldly, "But it’s good you’re not dead. Today, you will die at my hands, and taking your head back to the Su Dynasty will be a great achievement!"

"Ha ha ha, Lin Bai, come and face your doom."

Su Tianlong snorted coldly, and the power of the Flying Sky Realm surged out, his sword stabbing fiercely toward Lin Bai’s throat.

"Sword Prince, be careful!"

Chu Jiangliu hurriedly shouted.

"Great, Prince Su’s surprise attack will surely catch Lin Bai off guard, and will definitely kill him!"

"After Prince Su kills Lin Bai and takes his head back to Lingnan, the Su Dynasty will surely reward us handsomely, and we will rise with Prince Su, entering that land of geniuses in Lingnan!"

The group of warriors following Su Tianlong all said with joy on their faces.

Su Tianlong’s surprise attack was fierce and extraordinary, his sword force immense!

This sword, so ferocious, even warriors of the same state as him could not possibly block it!

Yet such a compelling sword, swiftly stabbing towards Lin Bai’s throat!

Clang—

Just at that moment!

As the sharp sword approached Lin Bai’s face in an instant, Lin Bai extended his hand, and his two fingers firmly clamped down on Su Tianlong’s sword blade!

Despite the powerful force of Su Tianlong from the Flying Sky Realm, Lin Bai’s fingers gripped like pincers sealing the heavens, preventing Su Tianlong from pulling out his sword blade!

"How is this possible!"

A look of incredulity flashed across Su Tianlong’s face.

He was a mighty Strong One of the Flying Sky Realm, how could Lin Bai casually catch such a formidable sword strike with just his fingers?

"What!" The group of Tomb Keepers and the Warriors who had followed Su Tianlong all displayed shock on their faces.

After a brief surprise, Chu Jiangliu smiled wryly, "The Sword Prince is still the Sword Prince, after all. Even after two years of inaction, such strength still makes it difficult for us to reach his level!"

Lin Bai clamped onto Su Tianlong’s sword blade, his gaze deadly still without any change!

Then, at that moment, Lin Bai exerted force in his hand, and with a "clang," Su Tianlong’s Extreme Martial Spiritual Sword was broken directly by Lin Bai!

Subsequently, Lin Bai flicked his finger, and the broken sword tip shot out, piercing through Su Tianlong’s throat!

"Ah—"

Before Su Tianlong could react, he felt a chill throughout his body, darkness enveloping his vision as he fell backward!

"What! Son of Prince Su Tianlong has actually been killed!"

"A Strong One of the Flying Sky Realm, how could he be so easily killed?"

"Lin Bai, you’re done for, you’re done for. You’ve killed a disciple of the Su Dynasty, you might as well wait for death!"

The Warriors who accompanied Su Tianlong pointed and shouted at Lin Bai.

Following that, almost simultaneously, they rushed out of the Tomb Mansion.

Now that Su Tianlong was dead, if they didn’t flee, were they supposed to stay and await death?

Lin Bai slightly turned his gaze towards the group of fleeing Warriors, waved his hand, and a storm-like sword wind swept across the passageway.

Soon after, screams of agony echoed through the passageway.

Blood splattered everywhere, the escaping dozen or so Warriors, killed by Lin Bai’s previous sword wind. Their plight was extremely brutal, resembling a slow, torturous execution.

Neither Su Tianlong nor any of those dozen Warriors left Lin Bai’s Tomb Mansion alive!

Chu Jiangliu and the Tomb Keepers, upon seeing the deaths of Su Tianlong and the others, shakily stood up and looked towards Lin Bai.

"Sword Prince."

Chu Jiangliu approached Lin Bai and in a low voice called out.

In Lin Bai’s previously deadly eyes, a trace of spirit slowly returned as he looked at Chu Jiangliu and said, "Brother Chu, you’ve done well too. In just two years, you’ve cultivated to the Great Perfection of the Heavenly Elixir Realm."

Hearing Lin Bai’s voice, Chu Jiangliu felt exceptionally comforted!

But Chu Jiangliu could also discern that Lin Bai’s voice was raspy, harsh, melancholic, and lifeless.

Chu Jiangliu smiled faintly, "I must thank Emperor Xiao. Over the past two years, unifying Lingdong allowed the Shenwu Kingdom to acquire many treasures, which accelerated the progress of my cultivation."

Lin Bai nodded slightly, "Some time ago, Xiaoxiao came over and said she’s taking action against the Holy Night Dynasty?"

Chu Jiangliu nodded, "Yes, counting the days, it should be happening in the next few days according to the time agreed with Shang Lang."

Lin Bai nodded, "Go to the Holy Night Dynasty and find Xiaoxiao. Tell her, after taking down the Holy Night Dynasty, to immediately mobilize troops to the Miracle Ridge. I want to give her a grand gift!"

Having said that, Lin Bai turned and left the Tomb Mansion.

"Sword Prince, are you going out?" Chu Jiangliu asked in surprise.

Over the past two years, Lin Bai hadn’t moved at all, and his decision to leave now was a shock to Chu Jiangliu.

Lin Bai responded without turning his head as he walked out of the Tomb Mansion, "Xiaoxiao is right. I still have enemies to face and a revenge yet unclaimed..., how can I wither away here?"

Then Chu Jiangliu asked, "Where are you going, Sword Prince?"

Lin Bai, without turning back, left the Tomb Mansion and declared, "To the Miracle Ridge!"

"Let Bai Xiaoxiao come; I will wait for her on the Miracle Ridge!"

Upon hearing this, Chu Jiangliu’s face immediately lit up with ecstasy, "Yes!"
