Chapter 1723 - 1720: Bai Shaoxia and the Chatty Yue Yang!

Chapter 1723: Chapter 1720: Bai Shaoxia and the Chatty Yue Yang!

"Bai Shaoxia, don’t underestimate the City of Humanity."

"On the Lingnan Continent, countless talented individuals came uninvited to this city because they couldn’t get an invitation from the Ice Family!"

"At the Ice Blood Ginseng Banquet, there have been many times when warriors from the City of Humanity outperformed those from the City of Heaven and the City of Earth, winning the Ice Blood Ginseng."

"Take that year, for example, when a particularly powerful..."

Yue Yang got increasingly excited as he spoke, spittle flying everywhere as he talked beside Lin Bai.

Lin Bai, finding it a bit noisy, quickly interrupted, saying, "Brother Yue Yang, we’ve traveled a long way through the wind and frost; we’re indeed exhausted. If you know where the City of Humanity is, please take me there quickly so we can find a place to rest, right?"

"Alright, alright, it’s simple. Before I came, I memorized the map of the Icebound Mountain Range. Except for some places forbidden by the Ice Family, I can find the rest!"

"Let’s go; I’ll take you to the City of Humanity!"

Yue Yang said excitedly to Lin Bai, then shot forward towards the City of Humanity.

Because Lin Bai met Yue Yang by chance, he didn’t tell Yue Yang his real name, given how notable the name Dongfang Bai was on the Lingnan Continent.

So Lin Bai told Yue Yang his surname was Bai, and Yue Yang called him Bai Shaoxia!

Lin Bai and Yue Yang moved forward quickly and soon discovered three cities in the Icebound Mountain Range, which were only a few kilometers apart!

The constructions of these three cities were extraordinarily grand and majestic!

These are the City of Heaven, the City of Earth, and the City of Humanity!

"Bai Shaoxia, let’s go to the City of Humanity." Yue Yang glanced at the three cities and said to Lin Bai with a smile, "I’m really envious of the warriors of the City of Heaven and the City of Earth, tsk tsk..."

Yue Yang looked at the City of Heaven and the City of Earth for a while, showing a look of envy on his face.

The members of the seven major sects and the royal families of the seventy-two dynasties are renowned across the Lingnan Continent and are always treated with respect wherever they go!

"Are you two here to attend the Ice Blood Ginseng Banquet?"

As Lin Bai and Yue Yang were about to head to the City of Humanity, a maid at the Flying Sky Realm suddenly appeared in front of them, smiling as she spoke.

Yue Yang chuckled, "Yes, yes, miss, you’re really pretty."

Complimented by Yue Yang, the maid blushed and asked, "Dare I ask if the two seniors have invitations?"

Yue Yang shook his head, "No."

The maid said, "In that case, I’ll take you both to the City of Humanity. The Ice Blood Ginseng Banquet will start in five days, and there will be notifications in the City of Humanity to guide you on where to go, as per the rules."

The maid smiled gently and led Lin Bai and Yue Yang to the City of Humanity.

But as they were halfway there, a terrifying pressure of spiritual power descended from the sky. Lin Bai paused, turned slightly to look, and saw a spirit boat breaking through the blizzard, arriving over the Icebound Mountain Range.

A dragon flag hung on the spirit boat, emblazoned with the words "Su Dynasty."

When Lin Bai saw the spirit boat, his eyes immediately focused on the front, where stood two elders and a young man.

"Su Lihai! Su Cang!" Upon seeing these three, Lin Bai’s gaze became instantly cold, a murderous intent surging in his heart.

Besides the dynasty soldiers, the Su Dynasty’s spirit boat conspicuously carried Su Lihai and Su Cang.

Now, Su Lihai’s cultivation has reached the fifth level of the Yangshen Realm, and Su Cang’s cultivation is actually equal, also reaching the fifth level of the Yangshen Realm!

"My, my, King Li Hai of the Su Dynasty came personally." Yue Yang also saw the Su Dynasty’s spirit boat, and his face showed a hint of surprise.

As Lin Bai looked at the Su Dynasty spirit boat, Su Cang, with a gentle smile, sensed Lin Bai’s gaze, and curiously glanced down, seeing Lin Bai. He smiled at Lin Bai and nodded slightly.

The Su Dynasty’s spirit boat flew forward toward the City of Heaven.

"Cang’er, what are you smiling about?" Su Lihai asked curiously.

"Nothing, I saw someone, Dongfang Bai." Su Cang said with a faint smile, "He seems to have gone to the City of Humanity."

Su Lihai exclaimed, "Cang’er, you saw Dongfang Bai? He’s remarkable; in just a few years, he has made a huge name for himself on the Lingnan Continent!"

Su Cang said with disdain in his eyes, "Nothing special, Uncle. Even if Dongfang Bai was stronger, he’s no longer the Junior Sword Venerate of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect. An old tiger without teeth, can it still be a tiger?"

"Heh." Su Cang sneered.

Su Lihai laughed, "Cang’er is right. The Heaven-reaching Sword Sect didn’t take Cang’er as a disciple; otherwise, the position of Junior Sword Venerate wouldn’t have fallen to Dongfang Bai!"

Su Cang smiled lightly, "Uncle, if I joined the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, there would be no other Junior Sword Venerates! The Heaven-reaching Sword Sect would have only me as the Junior Sword Venerate!"

"Let’s go, no need to pay attention to Dongfang Bai. Our goal this trip is the Ice Blood Ginseng. As long as we acquire it, I can break through to the sixth level of the Yangshen Realm, and then I’ll have few rivals on the Lingnan Continent!"

Su Cang said coldly.

Lin Bai watched dazedly as the Su Dynasty’s spirit boat entered the City of Heaven, a cold smile gradually forming at the corner of his mouth, "Seems like there are unexpected joys in coming to the Ice Family this time!"

"Didn’t expect that among the Six Freaks of Lingnan, both Su Lihai and Zhao Hansheng would be here. I wonder if Dong Qian will come; if he does, it’ll be perfect to settle it all at once!"

Lin Bai said with a faint smile as he watched the Su Dynasty’s spirit boat.

"Let’s go, Bai Shaoxia, don’t look anymore. They’ve gone to the City of Heaven, and we can’t enter without an invitation." Yue Yang patted Lin Bai’s shoulder, "Bai Shaoxia, try hard. Win the Ice Blood Ginseng in the martial arts competition, marry a princess from one of the dynasties, and next time, you can go to the City of Heaven."

"Haha, a princess of the dynasty! That must be Brother Yue’s lifelong dream!" Lin Bai smiled slightly, noncommittal, and stepped into the City of Humanity.

Yue Yang hurriedly caught up, pulling Lin Bai along, "Why are you laughing? Those dynasty princesses are extraordinarily beautiful! Remember, a while ago, someone with nothing better to do compiled a Beauty Ranking, and most of them were dynasty princesses..."

"That Beauty Ranking has..."

Yue Yang kept talking as he pulled Lin Bai, but their voices grew quieter, and the two gradually disappeared into the streets of the City of Humanity.
