The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 1613 - 1610: Arriving at Starry Sky City!

Chapter 1613: Chapter 1610: Arriving at Starry Sky City!

Lin Bai glanced casually at the corpses scattered on the ground, his expression hardly changed, then he turned his gaze to the Zhang Family Warrior and said indifferently, "Although we took action and helped your Zhang family out of the crisis with the Saint Seal Sect!"

"But this place is no longer safe. If his elder brother finds out, I’m afraid just one order from him would bring countless disciples of the Saint Seal Sect to follow in each other’s footsteps to come here and annihilate your family!"

"You should leave as soon as possible."

"These Storage Bags of the Saint Seal Sect disciples on the ground, we don’t want any of them. You take them away, consider it a little compensation to you."

"Leave the northwest region of the Nan Chu Dynasty, or even leave the Nan Chu Dynasty entirely, seek another place, and settle down."

Lin Bai spoke to the Zhang family indifferently.

Lin Bai also knew that having killed so many people from the Saint Seal Sect, including the younger brother of a Sect Saint Son, how could the Saint Seal Sect let it go?

Lin Bai and the Immortal Cave Mountain Sword Cultivators were under the protection of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect; even if the Saint Seal Sect came knocking, the sect would step in to resolve it. However, it was different for the Zhang family; they were merely a low-level family in the Martial Arts World—too low to be any lower.

If the Saint Seal Sect wished to pursue them, all they needed to do after Lin Bai and the others left was to dispatch a warrior of the Yin Saint Realm to come here, and they could wipe out the Zhang family in a bloodbath.

The Zhang Family Head also knew that they could no longer stay in the Nan Chu Dynasty. He immediately knelt on the ground with the members of the Zhang family and said sincerely, "Thank you for the great kindness of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect! Thank you, Junior Sword Venerable Dongfang Bai! Thank you to the Seventy-two Sword Cultivators of the Xian Dong Mountain!"

"Today’s great kindness, our Zhang family will never forget for as long as we live!"

"Please, Junior Sword Venerable, do not worry. We will leave the Nan Chu Dynasty immediately!"

The Zhang Family Head also knew that now that they had provoked the Saint Seal Sect, they would no longer be able to stay in the Nan Chu Dynasty, so they could only leave, hoping to avoid the Saint Seal Sect’s pursuit!

Hearing the words of the Zhang Family Head, Lin Bai nodded slightly and said to Nie Xiong and the others, "Let’s go."

After that, the Seventy-two Swordsman of Xian Dong Mountain returned to the Spirit Boat one by one.

The Spirit Boat gradually ascended, heading for Starry Sky City.

And as the Spirit Boat soared into the sky, Lin Bai looked down slightly and saw by the side of the Zhang Family Head, a beautiful woman holding in her arms a frightened young girl, who was now looking up at Lin Bai with an admiring face...

Lin Bai exchanged a glance with the young girl, smiled slightly, and nodded his head.

The Spirit Boat flew into the clouds and disappeared from the heavens and the earth.

The Zhang Family Head immediately said, "Linxiang, stop looking. Hurry and gather all the precious Cultivation Resources from the family patriarch’s collection with your uncles. We’re leaving the Nan Chu Dynasty immediately!"

"Take away all the Cultivation Resources we can, and destroy what we can’t carry. After all, this place... we probably can never return."

The Zhang Family Head looked towards Tianqing Town, his expression slightly sorrowful.

"Dad, I too will become a Sword Cultivator like him," said Zhang Linxiang, raising her pretty little face from her mother’s arms to the Zhang Family Head.

"Him?" The Zhang Family Head turned around and gazed in the direction where the Spirit Boat had departed, saying with reverence, "Linxiang, perhaps you will never be able to catch up to his pace!"

"He is one of the nine Monstrous Geniuses on the Lingnan Continent, and even more so, the Junior Sword Venerable of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect. In other words, he is an influential figure on the Lingnan Continent!"

"A promising young man, a dragon among men!"

The Zhang Family Head looked in the direction where Lin Bai’s Spirit Boat had departed, respectfully clasped his fist and bowed sincerely, thanking Lin Bai for saving their entire family!

"I will definitely become a Sword Cultivator like him!" said Zhang Linxiang, ignoring the Zhang Family Head’s words and resolutely declaring in her heart.

...

After the little interlude in Tianqing Town, the Spirit Boat continued its journey towards Starry Sky City.

The seventy-two sword cultivators of the Xian Dong Mountain who had just experienced a great battle were also gathering their murderous auras.

"Senior Brother Dongfang..." Nie Xiong approached Lin Bai, hesitated to speak, then blamed himself and said, "It’s all our fault. If we hadn’t insisted on involving ourselves in this matter, we wouldn’t have dragged Senior Brother Dongfang into attracting the attention of the Saint Seal Sect’s Saint!"

Lin Bai chuckled lightly and said, "Since we are all brothers who have lived and died together, there’s no need for such courteous words."

"Besides, the enemies I’ve attracted are many times stronger than the Saint Seal Sect’s Saint. He is merely a Saint, and not even worth my notice!"

Lin Bai said with an indifferent smile.

Lin Bai was not lying; even the Holy Guardian Supreme Dong Qian of the Saint Seal Sect was on Lin Bai’s list of people he must kill. How could Lin Bai be afraid of the Saint Seal Sect’s Saint Wei Tianjun?

"Stop the nonsense and let the brothers rest well. We’ll soon arrive at Starry Sky City," Lin Bai said with a light smile.

"Understood," Nie Xiong quickly replied.

Two hours later, the seventy-two sword cultivators of the Immortal Cave Mountain all entered the Spirit Boat to clean themselves and changed into clean clothes.

At this moment, in front of the Spirit Boat, within that boundless and desolate mountain range, an ancient city, desolate and towering between heaven and earth, appeared ahead of the Spirit Boat.

"That’s Starry Sky City."

"Starry Sky City sits at the highest point of the Desolate Heaven Mountain Range. Standing within the city, one feels as though they are in the midst of the Milky Way, hence the name Starry Sky City!"

"And the passageway to the Stars Secret Realm is also inside Starry Sky City."

Nie Xiong looked ahead at the towering city, his heart and mind trembling as he spoke.

Starry Sky City is located in the deepest part of the Desolate Heaven Mountain Range. The terrain here is treacherous, and due to the leakage of spiritual power from the Stars Secret Realm, it also serves as a gathering place for the Demon Clan.

However, the cultivation of the Demon Clan in this area is not high, at most they are at the Heaven Martial Realm!

But to Lin Bai, Demon Clan cultivators at the Heaven Martial Realm are not considered very strong. Yet, to those from the western northwest of the Nan Chu Dynasty like the Zhang Family Head, they are an unbeatable existence!

Therefore, not many of the Human Clan from the Nan Chu Dynasty dare to set foot here in Starry Sky City.

It is also for this reason that when the Spirit Boats of the Seven Major Sects fly over the northwestern territories of the Nan Chu Dynasty, countless warriors look up with reverence at the Spirit Boats...

Watching as these Spirit Boats fly towards the Desolate Heaven Mountain Range, towards the forbidden area of life that they would never dare to step foot in their hearts!

As the Spirit Boat approached Starry Sky City, on the towering city walls, a Xuanwu Realm young man waved joyfully at Lin Bai’s Spirit Boat and shouted loudly, "My name is Chen Jin, one of the guides here, warmly welcoming disciples of the Seven Major Sects to Starry Sky City!"

"May I trouble the seniors to show the identity tokens of the Seven Major Sects?"

The warrior named Chen Jin said with a smile.

Nie Xiong whispered to Lin Bai, "The guides here are warriors from the northwest territories of the Nan Chu Dynasty. When Starry Sky City is open, they will act as guides to lead the disciples of the Seven Major Sects into Starry Sky City, mainly to arrange accommodations for them!"

Lin Bai nodded slightly and immediately took out a multicolored token from his Storage Bag.

Chen Jin fixed his gaze on it, his eyes trembling slightly before he quickly bowed even more respectfully and with a somewhat trembling voice, said, "Junior did not know that you are the Junior Sword Master of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, I ask for the Junior Sword Master’s forgiveness!"

Lin Bai said indifferently, "It doesn’t matter!"

A short while later, after Chen Jin had checked the identity tokens of all the warriors on the Spirit Boat, he said, "Please follow me, Junior Sword Master and other seniors from the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, I will take you to your accommodations."

Lin Bai and the others left the Spirit Boat and followed Chen Jin into Starry Sky City!
