The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 1462 - 1459: Demon Emperor’s Banquet!

Chapter 1462: Chapter 1459: Demon Emperor’s Banquet!

After whispering these words into Lin Bai’s ear, Xing Hai pointed out the interests involved, making it clear to Lin Bai that this banquet was not as simple as it appeared.

The current layout of the Hanhai Demon Kingdom, with the Demon Emperor administratively managing everything Under Heaven, and the Eight Great Monster Clans carving territories to rule as kings.

The Demon Emperor, having already declared himself emperor, naturally could not tolerate so many Eight Emperors who disobeyed his commands.

Since the Eight Emperors had reached such a pinnacle of power in the vast Hanhai Demon Kingdom, all the Eight Great Monster Clans wanted to move forward to replace the Demon Emperor.

Therefore, between the Demon Emperor and the Eight Great Monster Clans, there has been a struggle, both overt and covert, for many years.

As Xing Hai said, no matter which camp Lin Bai chose to join at this banquet, he would offend other powers.

If looking at the long term, Sword Demon Dongfang Bai, has already accumulated a lot of glow.

Heir of the Demonic Sword.

The Reincarnation Field’s Thousand Victories King!

Monster-level Sword Art genius!

Any of these halos alone were enough to incite the struggle for power throughout the Lingnan Continent.

It’s not an exaggeration to say that whether it be the Demon Emperor or any of the Eight Great Monster Clans, if they could bring Lin Bai into their ranks, he would become the sharpest sword in the hand of that power!

The eunuch said, "Sir Sword Demon, His Majesty the Demon Emperor has already prepared a mansion for you and has also instructed me to tell you, this mansion will always belong to you, located right beside the Imperial Capital of the Imperial Palace."

"His Majesty the Demon Emperor said, the Sword Demon Sir has been in battles for so long, you’ve worked hard, let me take you to rest," said the eunuch with a chuckle.

Hearing the eunuch’s words, Lin Bai immediately understood that the Demon Emperor had started to try to win him over!

Xing Hai smiled slightly, as it was too obvious what the Demon Emperor was doing.

"Just finished a great battle, I also need to find a place to rest." Even though Lin Bai knew the Demon Emperor had ill intentions, he ultimately nodded slightly, "Then please lead the way."

"Yes," the eunuch nodded.

Lin Bai bowed to Xing Hai and the other ten Reincarnation Emissaries with a smile, "Gentlemen, I shall take my leave now. I will visit the Reincarnation Arena again if I have the chance."

The dark-faced Da Han, Xing Niu, said indifferently, "If you come back, let’s have a good fight, it won’t be as dull and boring as today."

After saying that, Xing Niu turned and left.

Hearing Xing Niu’s words, Lin Bai couldn’t help but smile helplessly. He also realized that Xing Niu was slightly resentful; Lin Bai had hidden his tactics, launching a surprise attack and defeating their five men without Xing Niu even getting to display his real skills.

Xing She joked, "Little brother, don’t mind this stubborn ox, losing is losing, can’t even accept it. I really envy you, you can leave now, unlike us, we still have to keep watching over here."

Then, the other Reincarnation Emissaries came up to congratulate Lin Bai on regaining his freedom!

Lin Bai and the Twelve Reincarnation Envoys originally had no deep hatred, and before taking action, they had made it clear not to strike fatally; everyone struck with precision, stopping at the right point!

After returning the courtesies with a smile, Lin Bai left the Reincarnation Arena with the eunuch.

When they reached the edge of the Reincarnation Arena, Lin Bai turned around to look back, over fifteen million powers of the Demon Clan gazed at Lin Bai, their eyes filled with awe and shock!

"Thousand Victories King!"

"The only Thousand Victories King in the Reincarnation Arena!"

"Sword Demon!"

A group of strong ones watched Lin Bai, their eyes filled with deep horror.

From now on, the name Sword Demon will resound throughout the Hanhai Demon Kingdom!

...

"This is my first time seeing the Imperial Capital of the Hanhai Demon Kingdom."

Lin Bai walked on the bustling Imperial Capital of the Hanhai Demon Kingdom, observing the distinct style of the Demon Clan’s Imperial Capital, buildings as tall as a thousand meters, strange street sculptures, and streets bustling with strangely dressed, humanoid creatures with beast heads!

"We have arrived, Sword Demon Sir."

"This place is called ’Sword Washing Manor,’ prepared for you by His Majesty the Demon Emperor. You can rest well here, and in ten days when the banquet commences, I will come to fetch you."

The eunuch said this with a smile as he brought Lin Bai to the manor’s entrance.

"Thank you." Lin Bai nodded, pushed the door open, and entered. The manor was neither too big nor too small, and Lin Bai took about two hours to familiarize himself with it.

Later, Lin Bai found a good room, sat down cross-legged, and began to heal his injuries and consolidate the Slaughter Comprehension he had just understood!

Seven days later, Lin Bai’s injuries were mostly healed, and his strength had fairly recovered. He then pushed open the manor’s gate and walked out.

"Sword Demon Sir, where are you planning to go?"

Just as Lin Bai walked out of the gate, he heard a voice resembling that of a duck, turned his head, and saw the eunuch he had met previously in the Reincarnation Field, smiling at him.

Lin Bai narrowed his Eyes and said, "It’s my first time in the Imperial Capital, I want to go out for a stroll. By the way, little eunuch, weren’t you going back to the Imperial Palace? What are you doing here?"

The eunuch chuckled and said, "Oh, how could I leave? His Majesty the Demon Emperor has tasked me with taking good care of you. As Sword Demon Sir is unfamiliar with the Imperial Capital, I might as well accompany you."

Lin Bai’s expression darkened slightly, his eyes dimmed a bit, and he said, "Fair enough."

Lin Bai then walked with the eunuch through the streets of the Imperial Capital, looking around everywhere, only returning to the Sword Washing Manor late at night.

"Is the Demon Emperor imprisoning me?"

"Does he not want to let me leave?"

As soon as Lin Bai returned to the Sword Washing Manor, he closed the door and looked outside the mansion, vaguely sensing the presence of several strong individuals clearly monitoring him.

Over the next three days, Lin Bai made several excuses to go out for leisure, but the eunuch was always closely following him.

Even though Lin Bai managed several times to shake off the eunuch using his movement technique, it would not take two hours before the eunuch found him again in the Imperial Capital.

At that point, it became clear to Lin Bai that the Demon Emperor was not having the eunuch serve him, but rather to keep surveillance on him.

The Demon Emperor did this with only one thought in mind — not wanting Lin Bai to leave the Hanhai Demon Kingdom!

On this day, Lin Bai sat cross-legged in his room, pondering desperately how to escape the Imperial Capital, but then he heard the eunuch’s voice, "Sword Demon Sir, the banquet prepared by the Demon Emperor and the Eight Emperors is ready, His Majesty has asked me to invite you over."

Hearing the words at the door, Lin Bai’s face darkened: "So soon?"

"But now I have no other choice, just have to take one step at a time."

"Let’s go see what sort of tricks the Demon Emperor and the Eight Emperors have up their sleeves at the banquet."

Lin Bai took a deep breath, pushed the door open, and left the Sword Washing Manor with the eunuch.

Lin Bai asked, "Do you know where the banquet with the Demon Emperor and the Eight Emperors will be held? Is it inside the Imperial Palace?"

The eunuch replied, "It is not inside the Imperial Palace. This time the banquet is a cooperative celebration between the Demon Emperor and the Eight Great Monster Clans, therefore it will be held at the Inviting Star Palace in the middle of the Imperial Capital!"
