The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 1292 - 1290: Comprehending the Stormy Ambience!

Chapter 1292: Chapter 1290: Comprehending the Stormy Ambience!

Suddenly, it started to rain from the sky, and both Gu Hai and Gu Qingyun thought it was an unpredictable storm.

But at that moment, Gu Qingyun and Gu Hai realized that what was falling from the sky was not rainwater; those were actually extremely terrifying sharp Sword Qi!

"Gu Hai, we might have entered into the State of a Sword Cultivator Strong One,"

Gu Qingyun shuddered and quickly pulled Gu Hai as they swiftly moved away!

When Gu Qingyun and Gu Hai had left a kilometer away, they had escaped the area shrouded by the torrential rain!

Gu Qingyun looked back and his gaze flickered, watching those raindrops falling on the Earth, disappearing without a trace, yet bringing no harm.

But Gu Qingyun still felt that if they hadn’t left in time, those raindrops falling on them would certainly have rapidly killed them by slicing their flesh!

Gu Hai looked at the area covered by the torrential rain and exclaimed, "Is this the Water Droplet Realm?"

On the Barbaric Ancient Continent, the four most common States, also recognized by Warriors as the easiest to perceive, are: Earth Realm, Fire Realm, Gale Realm, and Water Droplet Realm!

Gu Qingyun, with a look of terror, watched the torrential rain and said, "No! This is certainly not the Water Droplet Realm."

"The Water Droplet Realm is a realm of sharpness and unmatched penetration, but that torrential rain, dense inseparable, any Warrior entering it would be instantly killed!"

"This is definitely not something the Water Droplet Realm can achieve!"

"This must be a rare Realm."

Gu Qingyun calmly spoke.

Gu Hai said, "When did a Sword Cultivator Strong One with a rare Realm join the Ancient Clan?"

Hearing Gu Hai’s words, Gu Qingyun silently looked toward the man standing in the courtyard, holding a sword, as if he had turned to stone.

"Dongfang Bai!"

Both Gu Hai and Gu Qingyun were startled.

This place was Lin Bai’s residence, so the presence of a Stormy Ambience here could only mean Dongfang Bai was cultivating his Realm.

Gu Hai said, "Patriarch, it seems that Mr. Dongfang is no ordinary person!"

"Patriarch, do I still need to ask Mo Changyun to return?"

Seeing this, Gu Hai asked.

Gu Qingyun said, "There’s no need, with Dongfang Bai’s current Sword Art Cultivation, he is already the strongest in Huanglong City, and as a Sword Cultivator mastering a rare Realm, his strength is definitely stronger than any other Warrior of the same State!"

"He might just be the best candidate to teach Miss Jianyun."

Gu Qingyun declared firmly.

Gu Hai spoke, "But Patriarch, Miss Jianyun is really resistant toward Mr. Dongfang..."

Hearing Gu Hai’s words, Gu Qingyun’s Eyes narrowed, and his expression gradually darkened, "It seems it’s time to put some pressure on Jianyun, she has grown up and can’t continue to be willful like when she was a child."

"Gu Hai, tomorrow morning, go invite Du Yue from the Du Clan."

Gu Hai, surprised, said, "Du Yue, the number one talent of Huanglong City?"

"Right."

Gu Qingyun nodded slightly.

Gu Hai asked, "Why invite him over?"

Gu Qingyun answered, "To discuss his marriage with Jianyun!"

Gu Hai, surprised, said, "But Patriarch, it seems that Miss Jianyun has never liked this Du Yue..."

Gu Qingyun chuckled lightly, "I know she doesn’t like him, that’s exactly why I want to call Du Yue over!"

It seemed like Gu Hai understood and immediately bowed and said, "I’ll get it done tomorrow!"

Gu Qingyun nodded slightly, sighed deeply, looked toward the person in the torrential rain, and said, "The thousand-year Ancient Clan, from now on, will be entrusted in your hands, sir!"

...

Lin Bai slowly opened his eyes, watching the raindrops falling from the sky, with a slight smile on his lips.

"Disperse!"

Lin Bai softly spoke, and at this command, the raindrops instantly vanished from mid-air!

Then, Lin Bai furrowed his brows in contemplation before returning to his room with a smile.

After a brief rest, dawn arrived.

Early in the morning, Lin Bai went directly to Miss Jianyun’s residence; he had already visited once yesterday and thus did not require a maid to guide him today.

"I wonder if that young lady’s anger has subsided."

Lin Bai entered Miss Jianyun’s courtyard, his lips curling into a bitter smile.

As soon as Lin Bai stepped into the courtyard, a maid approached and greeted, "Sir, are you here to see the young mistress?"

Lin Bai nodded and said, "Yes, I wonder if Miss Jianyun has gotten up yet?"

The maid replied, "Sir, early this morning, the patriarch had someone escort Miss Jianyun to the reception hall. It’s said that she was meeting Huanglong City’s top talent, Du Yue!"

"Du Yue? The top talent of Huanglong City?"

Lin Bai said, intrigued.

Upon hearing the name Du Yue, the maid’s eyes sparkled with fanaticism and admiration, "Yes, Brother Du Yue possesses extraordinary Martial Art talent, his Martial Soul is incredibly high, and his Sword Art aptitude is exceptional. He is this year’s most hopeful candidate from Huanglong City to pass through the All Nations Disciple Recruitment Conference."

"It’s said that Miss Jianyun even has an engagement with him."

The maid spoke dreamily, clearly having exceptional admiration for Du Yue.

"Oh," Lin Bai said indifferently with a nod, "Well, if Miss Jianyun isn’t here, I’ll go back and wait for her return, then have her come to see me!"

With that, Lin Bai prepared to leave Miss Jianyun’s courtyard.

"Wooooo—"

Just as Lin Bai turned to leave, he saw a beautiful woman running towards the courtyard, crying her eyes out.

Who else could this weeping beauty be, if not Miss Jianyun?

"Uh?" Lin Bai watched as Miss Jianyun cried so sorrowfully, quite puzzled.

Lin Bai walked up to her, blocking her path, and asked, "What’s wrong? Why are you crying so bitterly?"

"Get out of my way!" Miss Jianyun saw Lin Bai blocking her and immediately shouted irritably, "Is it that all you strong ones enjoy humiliating people?"

"Don’t you have any manners?"

"You’re wasting your high Martial Art talents!"

"Dongfang Bai, Du Yue, Zhao Chou, you’re all the same! Even if your cultivation is high and your talents are strong, without moral character, you’re just beasts with great strength!"

"I don’t like you!"

"Dongfang Bai, the Ancient Clan does not welcome you, please leave!"

Miss Jianyun stared at Lin Bai, her eyes full of hatred and anger!

"Asking me to leave?" Lin Bai said, puzzled, "Even if you want me to leave, shouldn’t you first tell me what exactly happened?"

Miss Jianyun’s eyes reddened as she looked at Lin Bai and said through gritted teeth, "I know my Martial Soul isn’t high, my talents aren’t sufficient, and my physique is poor, but you don’t have to line up to insult me!"

"You are just more favored by the heavens, what’s so great about that?"

Miss Jianyun angrily yelled at Lin Bai.

Lin Bai’s expression darkened as he said, "Did someone say these things to you? Was it that top talent of Huanglong City, Du Yue, or that Zhao Chou you mentioned?"

Miss Jianyun coldly said, "What use is there in asking this?"

"Dongfang Bai, you’ve humiliated me enough. If you’re satisfied now, please leave!"

Lin Bai looked at Miss Jianyun, grabbed her wrist with a cold face, and told the maid who was watching, "Take me to the reception hall!"

The maid, frightened by Lin Bai’s cold gaze, immediately nodded, "Yes."
