The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 1427 - 1424: Spirit Inspiration Venerable!

Chapter 1427: Chapter 1424: Spirit Inspiration Venerable!

White Warrior’s face was seething with evil Qi as he stared at Lin Bai, his eyes filled with a cold color.

"It was the night Li Feng invited us to drink when you took action, wasn’t it?" White Warrior asked indifferently.

Lin Bai’s expression remained calm, and he said with a smile, "I don’t understand what Senior White Warrior is talking about."

"Still trying to argue? In the room where White Wind was murdered, I found a sword mark. Such sword skill must have come from the hand of a warrior with profound accomplishment in sword art!"

"So, tell me, on that night, how many masters of swordsmanship would there have been?"

"Within the White Snake Clan, in White Snake Valley, who else has sword skill to rival the disciples of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect?"

White Warrior asked coldly.

On hearing this, Lin Bai suddenly remembered the moment when Jing Shu killed White Wind with a slash of her sword, the sword Qi leaked out and left a mark on the ground.

And as for the actions of Lin Bai and the others, they were extremely careful and did not leave behind any evidence, except for Jing Shu’s strike...

"What do you want to do?" Lin Bai saw he had been seen through by White Warrior and his words turned somewhat cold.

At this moment, Lin Bai looked at White Warrior, examining his cultivation carefully.

It was then Lin Bai realized, White Warrior’s cultivation level had actually reached the Perfect Yin Saint Realm!

White Warrior laughed, "What? I found you out? You want to kill me?"

Lin Bai smiled faintly, neither confirming nor denying.

Seeing the smile that flickered across Lin Bai’s lips, White Warrior understood that Lin Bai really had the intention to kill: "Dongfang Bai, sometimes I feel you are not a disciple of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect; rather, you seem more like an assassin!"

"With your temperament, it’s truly a waste not to be an assassin."

Lin Bai smiled again, without saying a word.

White Warrior said, "Rest assured, I have already erased that sword mark. The White Snake Clan won’t discover it for the time being."

Lin Bai said, "Thank you."

White Warrior said, "But I have a request!"

Lin Bai smiled and said, "I agree!"

"I haven’t mentioned my request!" White Warrior said.

"I know what you want to say! Isn’t it just that you want me to take you back to the Human Clan Dynasty?" Lin Bai said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, a smile crept onto White Warrior’s face as he said faintly, "I broke through to the Perfect Yin Saint Realm ten years ago and haven’t made any further progress in ten years. If I wanted to return to the Human Clan Dynasty on my own strength, who knows what year and month that would be."

"So, you’re right; I do indeed hope that when you have the power to return to the Human Clan Dynasty, you’ll take me with you!"

Lin Bai chuckled lightly, "I promise you! But before that, I need you to cooperate with me on some things."

White Warrior asked, "What things?"

Lin Bai said, "When the White Snake Clan plants the Spirit Awakening Grass again, I want you to take all the disciples of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect who came back with me, to Fairy Cave Mountain."

White Warrior’s eyes narrowed as he asked, "What is on Fairy Cave Mountain that’s worth your effort?"

Lin Bai said, "What’s there is none of your concern. As long as you do as I say, I can promise you, before I am strong enough, I will take you back to the Human Clan Dynasty!"

White Warrior pondered for a moment and said, "Fine, it’s a deal!"

"What are your plans now?"

White Warrior asked again.

Lin Bai said, "Now, to go into seclusion! When the White Snake Clan is ready to plant the Spirit Awakening Grass again, I will come out of seclusion!"

White Warrior’s face seemed somewhat somber, unable to figure out what game Lin Bai was really playing.

Warrior had traveled far and wide, having encountered his fair share of demons and monsters, but he was puzzled in his heart, for he could not see through the young man before him who was merely in his early twenties!

Hearing Lin Bai speak thus, Warrior could only nod in agreement.

After Warrior had left, Lin Bai sat with a face of changing moods and said, "I didn’t expect there to be a leak despite all precautions. Fortunately, Warrior is set on returning to the Human Clan Dynasty and is willing to help me, otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable!"

"Let’s put it aside and start refining the Spirit Awakening Grass."

Lin Bai sat cross-legged in the room, beginning the process of refining the Spirit Awakening Grass.

Nie Xiong had found one hundred thousand strands of Spirit Awakening Grass in the Treasury aboard the Spirit Boat from Fairy Cave Mountain, and now all of it had fallen into Lin Bai’s hands!

The White Snake Clan had a secret land.

At this moment, inside the secret land, lay a Spirit Boat smeared with traces of blood.

This was indeed the Spirit Boat that White Wind had taken upon his return from Fairy Cave Mountain!

At this moment, four shadows slowly walked towards the Spirit Boat.

Among these four, one of the shadows was a white-robed man with sword-like brows and starry eyes, bright pupils, and shining teeth; it was none other than White Ling!

Accompanying him was a middle-aged couple; the man emanated an air of authority, exuding the aura of one who held a high position, while the woman had the charm of someone past her prime but still alluring. This couple was none other than White Ling’s parents and the ones in power within the White Snake Clan.

Simultaneously, they were also White Wind’s parents!

The last person wore a white robe and a cloak, with a hunched figure and an indistinct face, and step by step, he followed towards the Spirit Boat!

White Ling said, "Spirit Inspiration Venerable, this is the Spirit Boat my brother took upon his return. I have had it confirmed by the commander of the White Snake Battle Camp, Warrior, who indeed saw White Wind board the Spirit Boat. Since then, coming until the White Snake Mountain Range, he has never left it!"

"Moreover, upon the Spirit Boat, with its stains of blood, I am certain that my brother died aboard it!"

The middle-aged man’s face turned cold as he said lightly, "Spirit Inspiration Venerable, we are grateful for your assistance this time. If you can find the murderer of our child, the White Snake Clan will certainly not ill-reward you!"

The man in the white robe chuckled, "Young Master White Ling, Lord White Emperor, Baihou Empress, rest assured, I will do my utmost. Whether it can be successful, however, is up to destiny!"

This middle-aged man was the ruler of the White Snake Clan. Since his reign, aside from some Old Monsters within the Hanhai Demon Kingdom, very few knew his actual name and referred to him as the White Emperor!

And his wife was known as the Baihou Empress!

Hence, within the Hanhai Demon Kingdom, there was a saying of one Emperor and eight Emperors!

The one Emperor referred to the ruler of the Hanhai Demon Kingdom, the commander of the Demon Clan, the Demon Emperor!

The eight Emperors referred to the rulers of the eight Great Monster Clans within the Hanhai Demon Kingdom!

Three hundred years ago, when the Demon Emperor planned to seize the Hanhai Dynasty, it was with the strong support of these eight Great Monster Clans that allowed the Hanhai Demon Kingdom to fall into demon territory within a mere ten years!

Following the ascension of the Demon Emperor, eight lords were appointed, who were the rulers of the eight Great Monster Clans!

The White Emperor was indeed one of them!

The Baihou Empress spoke with some sadness, "My young child was only but a mere sixty years old, so young. He should not have met with this misfortune. The White Snake Clan has sworn to make the killer pay dearly, denying them a place for burial!"

"Spirit Inspiration Venerable, your technique of spirit sense and shadowy discernment is the strongest in the Hanhai Demon Kingdom. If even you cannot discern the murderer of my child, then our hope for revenge is truly lost!"

Spirit Inspiration Venerable smiled and said, "Baihou Empress, rest assured, I will exhaust all my efforts!"

Upon hearing the news of White Wind’s death, both White Emperor and Baihou were indeed furious, to the point of Taking Action against the Sky Eagle Demon Clan without distinguishing right from wrong.

But after a month of fighting, both White Emperor and Baihou had realized that if the Sky Eagle Demon Clan truly had a hand in it, they likely wouldn’t have left the Spirit Boat to return, and even less so, allowed Warrior and others to come back.

Thus, the White Emperor finally understood and regained his rationality, beginning to pursue the real culprit behind White Wind’s death!

That was how he came to find Spirit Inspiration Venerable!
