The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 1399 - 1396: Hanhai Demon Kingdom!

Chapter 1399: Chapter 1396: Hanhai Demon Kingdom!

Half a month later, Zhu Lie, severely injured, returned to the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect from Zhu’s Fairy City. After recounting the events that transpired in Dongshuang City to the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, the top echelons of the sect were outraged!

Zhu Lie declared that he had been ambushed in Dongshuang City by the Demolishing Mountain Demon Saint and the Valley of Demons. All the disciples perished, and not even their remains could be preserved; only he managed to escape by the skin of his teeth when the Zhu Family’s reinforcements arrived just in time.

This news swept through the Seven Major Sects of the Lingnan Continent like a storm.

All the tens of thousands of disciples from the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect were annihilated by the Valley of Demons, causing a stir among the many Sects on the continent. The Seven Major Sects immediately dispatched their top masters to the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect to ask if assistance was needed.

Incensed, the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect jointly requested the return of the Sword Venerable, who had been in seclusion for many years.

The supreme ruler of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, and the foremost Sword Cultivator of the Lingnan Continent—the Sword Venerable of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect—emerged from seclusion that day and immediately ordered a full-scale war against the Valley of Demons, intent on eradicating all their influence within the Litian Dynasty!

Upon learning that the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect was going to war with the Valley of Demons, the Litian Dynasty immediately declared that the Royal Family would fully support the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect. In addition, the Dynasty’s army had already assembled and would soon wage war on the Valley of Demons!

The two behemoth forces of the Litian Dynasty finally resolved to jointly combat the Valley of Demons.

A legendary great battle unfolded in every corner of the Litian Dynasty!

...

However, Lin Bai and the others, whom Zhu Lie had declared dead, were unaware of this situation. At this moment, they were being secretly transported out of the Litian Dynasty by the Demolishing Mountain Demon Saint.

When Lin Bai awoke, he found himself in a foreign country.

This was... the territory of the Demon Clan, one of the Five Great Demon Kingdoms on the Lingnan Continent—the Hanhai Demon Kingdom!

Three hundred fifty years ago, this place was a Human Clan Dynasty, but it had been overrun by a surprise attack from the Demon Clan. The Royal Family was annihilated overnight, and the citizens were massacred with no hope of rescue, causing many Warriors to flee the Hanhai Dynasty, seeking asylum in other Dynasties!

The Demon Clan launched an offensive against the Hanhai Dynasty, and within a short span of ten years, cleansed the entire population from the lands of the Dynasty, leaving almost no warriors alive. Afterwards, the Hanhai Dynasty was renamed the Hanhai Demon Kingdom, and its dominance over the Lingnan Continent proclaimed this area Demon Clan Territory, decreeing death for any Human Clan Warrior who dared intrude!

The Hanhai Demon Kingdom became the fifth territory of the Demon Clan on the Lingnan Continent, and no Warrior from the continent dared to step foot in the Hanhai Demon Country again!

In the Hanhai Demon Country, there were no longer any Human Clan Warriors—it was a land completely ruled by the Demon Clan.

"Everyone fucking wake up!"

"Feigning death."

At this moment, a sharp, piercing voice reached Lin Bai’s ears.

Lin Bai, somewhat groggy, forced his eyes open, and saw before him a dark, damp dungeon imprisoning all the disciples of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect!

The disciples of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, one by one, woke up from the effects of the Resting Pill, looked in surprise at the dark, damp dungeon, and instantly panicked.

"Where is this?"

"Why am I in a dungeon?"

"Let me out quickly, I’m a disciple from the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, who dares to imprison me?"

A group of Warriors, having woken up, started shouting clamorously.

Smack—

A loud noise erupted, and in front of the dungeon’s iron gate stood a massive man, five meters tall, wielding a black iron long stick, his muscles bulging and his face fierce, especially his eyes, which were like those of a venomous snake, daring anyone to look directly at them!

Hearing the outcry of the disciples of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, the big man swung his iron stick, striking the iron gate with a thunderous noise.

"Disciples of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect? Ha, are you from that Heaven-reaching Sword Sect known as one of the Seven Major Sects of the Lingnan Continent? I didn’t expect the slaves that Demolishing Mountain Demon Saint sent over to be so infamous,"

This big man laughed coldly.

Lin Bai, upon awakening, was considerably more composed than the others. His gaze swept around, taking in the situation.

He then looked at the big man.

The big man spoke coldly, "Listen well, you’re no longer within the territory of the Litian Dynasty. This place is called... the Hanhai Demon Kingdom, and it is the territory of my Demon Clan!"

"I am from the White Snake Clan, one of the Eight Great Monster Clans of the Hanhai Demon Kingdom. My name is Bai Ba!"

This big man revealed a grin, his snake-like pupils squinting slightly, radiating a mocking smile.

"What!"

"The Haihan Demon Country! One of the Five Great Demon Kingdoms of the Lingnan Continent, this place is a Forbidden Area for the Human Clan!"

"My God, how did I end up here?"

"Where is Senior Brother Zhao Qing? Where is Senior Brother Bao Jun?"

A group of warriors heard this voice and began screaming in terror.

But Zhao Qing and Bao Jun had seemingly vanished and were not among these warriors.

Bai Ba grinned, "The Hanhai Demon Kingdom is separated from the Litian Dynasty by the distance of five dynasties. Hehe, I advise you to give up any hope of returning because no human warrior can leave the Hanhai Demon Kingdom alive!"

"If you want to survive now, then you must do as I say!"

"Everyone stand up now, and follow me out in order!"

Bai Ba shouted sternly.

"Come here!"

Bai Ba yelled to the outside, addressing a legion clad in heavy armor that walked in from outside the dungeon.

Lin Bai carefully observed, and on the chest armor of these soldiers, there was an emblem of a coiling white snake!

These soldiers were almost completely from the Demon Clan, and they emitted a strong demonic Qi!

"Move, hurry up and get out... Don’t dawdle, are you asking for a beating?"

The group of soldiers surrounded them, harshly reprimanding the disciples of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect.

The disciples gradually walked out of the dungeon.

"Junior Brother Dongfang." At that moment, Jiang Jing came over and stood beside Lin Bai.

Lin Bai looked at Jiang Jing with a hint of hostility in his eyes, saying nothing.

Jiang Jing shook his head and bitterly smiled, "Junior Brother Dongfang, you don’t have to look at me like that. I’m not in league with the Demolishing Mountain Demon Saint."

Lin Bai coldly said, "Then why did you..."

Jiang Jing replied, "Inside Dongshuang City, the Valley of Demons has up to twenty thousand strong ones. Even if we fought with all our might, it’s not certain we could break out. If I hadn’t stopped you, perhaps the Demolishing Mountain Demon Saint would have killed you right there in the city."

Lin Bai sighed deeply in resignation, looked around, and asked, "Where are we? Where are they taking us?"

Jiang Jing said, "If I’m not mistaken, this place should be the Imperial Capital of the Hanhai Demon Kingdom, the territory of the White Snake Clan, the Yunxi Mountain!"

Lin Bai asked, "So, have we really left the Litian Dynasty?"

Jiang Jing nodded bitterly, "Yes, this is the Hanhai Demon Kingdom!"

Lin Bai asked, "What do the White Snake Clan want by capturing us?"

Jiang Jing narrowed his eyes slightly and said lightly, "They probably want us to participate... in the battles of the Reincarnation Arena!"

"The Reincarnation Arena is essentially like the Colosseum within the Human Clan, only the roles have been reversed. This time, it’s our humans who are down in the arena, and the Demon Clan watches from above!"

Lin Bai looked at Jiang Jing, his voice cold, "Why are you so familiar with the Hanhai Demon Kingdom?"

Jiang Jing replied, "Because I was born here."

Lin Bai was taken aback, "You are from the Demon Clan?"

"Not at all! I am from the Human Clan!" Jiang Jing said blandly.

Lin Bai looked at Jiang Jing, bewildered, while Jiang Jing’s face showed a hint of sadness, shaking his head slightly, no longer speaking.

And at this moment, all the disciples of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect were gradually leaving the dim corridor.

At the end of the corridor, a deafening roar of cheers erupted!

"Kill him... are the warriors of the Human Clan really that weak?"

"Kill him..."

The voices from outside the corridor reached Lin Bai’s ears.

Lin Bai asked, "What’s ahead?"

Jiang Jing replied, "It should be the... Fighters Arena of the White Snake Clan!"
