Chapter 1589: Chapter 1586: Wind Chasing Spirit Boat

Standing in the courtyard, Lin Bai spoke softly, "Now that the matters of the Silver Moon Merchant Association have been settled, I no longer have a role to stay. It’s better to return to the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect first."

Yue Qing looked slightly hazy, with a smile appearing in her eyes: "When are you leaving? I will send a Spirit Boat to take you there."

Lin Bai shook his head, "No need, I plan to leave soon. By the way, Lu Ao and Fang Jin are not people with deceitful hearts, you can boldly use them."

Yue Qing nodded, "I understand."

"Since that’s the case, if you have time to visit the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, I will surely welcome you with open arms."

Lin Bai bowed with a smile.

"Take care, Bai Lang."

Yue Qing said with a light laugh.

Lin Bai nodded slightly, and immediately a Flying Sword flashed out of his Dantian, growing as it met the wind. Then, Lin Bai jumped onto the Flying Sword, transforming into a golden stream of light, shooting towards the outside of Haizhen City.

Having retrieved the Flying Sword, Lin Bai returned to the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect by Flying Sword, which was much faster than taking a Spirit Boat.

Moreover, as Lin Bai’s cultivation grew, the spiritual power inside the Divine Elixir was now abundant, enough to support Lin Bai’s long-duration sword flying.

Yue Qing stood in the small courtyard, watching Lin Bai as his sword flew away, her gaze fixed until Lin Bai’s figure disappeared into the vast night, with a hint of loss finally flashing in her eyes.

Then, Yue Qing glanced at the small courtyard, went into the room, where every moment she had spent with Lin Bai still lingered in her heart.

Standing silently for a long time, Yue Qing silently opened the Storage Bag and took out a strand of black Sword Qi.

This was the last strand of black Sword Qi Lin Bai left for Yue Qing.

Originally, Lin Bai had been grateful for Yue Qing giving him a book on cultivation insights of a God-Level Swordsman, hence he gifted her three strands of Sword Qi, indicating that with these three strands, Yue Qing could ask Lin Bai to do three things for her.

The first strand of Sword Qi, Yue Qing used to repay Lin Bai for saving her life on Wuji Mountain.

The second strand of Sword Qi, Lin Bai agreed to help Yue Qing take back the position of Chairman of the Silver Moon Merchant Association.

Now, Yue Qing still had one strand of Sword Qi left.

Yue Qing looked at the Sword Qi in her hand and silently put it back into the Storage Bag, treasuring it.

...

Lin Bai, riding his sword, left Haizhen City. Although it was deep in the night and very secretive, his movement was still noticed by some warriors keeping an eye on Lin Bai’s movements.

Inside the Wolf Pack Commerce Association, a Black-robed Elder quickly entered a Dark Hall.

"Chairman, news from the Silver Moon Merchant Association, Dongfang Bai has already departed on his Flying Sword from the Silver Moon Merchant Association."

This Black-robed Elder had strong cultivation, being a Warrior at the First Level of the Yangshen Realm.

"Is the information accurate?" The Chairman of the Wolf Pack Commerce Association excitedly stood up from his chair in an instant.

"It should be correct! The news from inside the Silver Moon Merchant Association said they saw a golden light soar into the sky, that golden light was a flying sword, and on the sword stood a vague shadow of a person, it should be Dongfang Bai."

The Black-robed Warrior said coldly.

"Good, finally he has left!" The Chairman of the Wolf Pack Commerce Association said coldly: "Gentlemen, since Dongfang Bai has now left the Silver Moon Merchant Association, then let’s set out."

"According to our previous agreement, after we seize the Demonic Sword and Flying Swords, we will then decide how to distribute them."

The Chairman of the Wolf Pack Commerce Association surveyed the surroundings.

In this Dark Hall, below the Chairman of the Wolf Pack Commerce Association, sat eight black-robed Warriors, clad in black robes and cloaks that concealed their faces.

But from the aura they exuded, it was vaguely discernible that these individuals were all beyond the Second Level of the Yangshen Realm, with even one surpassing the Third Level of the Yangshen Realm—a truly formidable figure!

Upon hearing the words of the Chairman of the Wolf Pack Commerce Association, the eight immediately stood up and strode out of the Great Hall without a word.

The Chairman of the Wolf Pack Commerce Association sneered: "Dongfang Bai, you killed Ye Fenghuo of my Wolf Pack Commerce Association, and even more of our warriors. I will definitely settle this blood feud with you!"

Having said that, the Chairman of the Wolf Pack Commerce Association followed the eight black-robed Warriors and left the Great Hall.

These eight black-robed Warriors were not from the Wolf Pack Commerce Association; they were powerful figures secretly recruited by the Chairman of the Wolf Pack Commerce Association.

These eight had set their sights on the Flying Swords and Demonic Sword in Lin Bai’s possession and wished to snatch them. Coincidentally, the Chairman of the Wolf Pack Commerce Association was recruiting warriors to assassinate Dongfang Bai for a shared motive of interest, thereby bringing these eight together.

All clad in black clothes and robes, their faces obscured, the identities of these eight must be well-known masters from the Lingnan Continent!

The Flying Swords sped across the sky, heading straight for the direction of the Litian Dynasty.

The speed of the Flying Swords was extremely fast, covering 180,000 li in an instant!

Shortly after, Lin Bai arrived at the Wuji Mountain, pausing only briefly before continuing straight towards the mountain.

Soon, Lin Bai riding his sword reached the borders of the Linhai Dynasty.

Outside the border of the Linhai Dynasty lay endless barren mountains. Within them lurked numerous Desperate Fugitives and Evil People, who lay in wait to ambush and rob passing warriors.

Lin Bai landed on the summit of Lonely Mountain and took a brief look back.

In the direction from which Lin Bai had come, a pinpoint of light was rapidly approaching. When it got within ten thousand li of Lin Bai, he could clearly see that it was a Spirit Boat.

This Spirit Boat was particularly different, its speed surpassing that of ordinary Spirit Boats!

When the Spirit Boat reached the barren mountains within the border of the Linhai Dynasty, it stopped above Lin Bai, and from the Spirit Boat, ten warriors with profound auras and immense strength stepped out.

"You gentlemen have been chasing me all along the way, aren’t you tired?" Lin Bai sat leisurely atop Lonely Mountain, watching the ten black-robed people step off the Spirit Boat.

Despite not clearly seeing their faces, Lin Bai knew they had ill intentions.

As these ten people disembarked from the Spirit Boat, their faces concealed beneath the black robes showed shock, their gazes filled with extreme surprise towards Lin Bai.

The Spirit Boat they rode, called the "Wind Chasing Spirit Boat," was ranked ninety-eighth amongst this year’s Top Martial Spirit Weapon Ranking, known for its extreme speed, so fast that even a warrior at the Yangshen Great Perfection couldn’t catch up when it was fully powered.

Yet they had been chasing Lin Bai for three full days and nights aboard the Wind Chasing Spirit Boat, all the way to the border of the Linhai Dynasty. If Lin Bai hadn’t stopped to wait for them, they probably would still not have been able to catch up!

This amazed the ten immensely, secretly admiring the speed of the Flying Swords that reached such an astounding level.

"Young Sword Master Dongfang, was that the speed of the Flying Sword just now?" At this moment, a dark voice sounded among the black-robed individuals, the tone harsh and chilling.

Although they all wore black robes, Lin Bai could still feel that the speaker was the third black-robed person on his left.

"Do you gentlemen not wish to face me with your true identities?" Lin Bai glanced and spoke faintly.

One of the black-robed individuals sneered: "Young Sword Master is joking. Since we have come to chase you, we naturally cannot face you directly. Otherwise, if Young Sword Master were to die today and Heaven-reaching Sword Sect learned of it, I fear that all of us would face annihilation!"
