Chapter 311: Chapter 310: So he is Lin Bai!

The City of Thousand Islands was the largest trading hub of the East Sea.

Overseas in the East Sea, the cultivation resources were limited. Many rare spiritual medicines and ores, miraculous elixirs had to be transported from the mainland.

As such, to ensure a steady flow of cultivation resources for the martial artists in the East Sea and to secure the chamber of commerce’s interests, more than a thousand large islands in the East Sea had jointly signed a treaty to collectively protect the City of Thousand Islands.

Therefore, the City of Thousand Islands was also known as a gold mine in the East Sea.

Every warrior who came here was rich beyond measure.

Over time, other businesses were launched in this place, such as the arena and places like brothels, and so on. If it could make money, it would exist in the City of Thousand Islands.

At the port of the City Thousand Islands, a trading ship was slowly docking.

On the edge of the port, a sexy, red-hot beauty wearing a cheongsam was gazing into the horizon of the sea.

Behind this seductive woman, the warriors from the Treasure Pavilion who came with her couldn’t take their eyes off her. Their eyes were glowing with desire, staring at her enchanting back.

This woman was Su Xianmei indeed.

"We’ve finally arrived."

The voluptuous beauty sighed with relief upon seeing the trading ship arriving with the dawn.

She also noticed that the trading ship was riddled with marks of a fight that was yet to fade away.

The trading ship slowly docked at the port.

Huo Shu disembarked from the ship, upon seeing Su Xianmei, he quickly walked over and greeted, "Emissary Su."

Su Xianmei glanced at the trading ship and gently asked, "What happened? Were you attacked during the journey here?"

Huo Shu replied solemnly, "Yes, just last night, about 10,000 miles away from the City of Thousand Islands, we were attacked by the Frenzied Shark Sect. It was extremely dangerous."

Thinking back to the fierce battle last night, Huo Shu still felt fearful.

Upon hearing the name of Frenzied Shark Sect, Su Xianmei’s face revealed a hint of worry.

The notorious reputation of Frenzied Shark Sect was infamous in the East Sea, known for their ruthlessness.

How did Huo Shu manage to escape?

"Are the goods okay? Did the Frenzied Shark Sect know about the cargo on this ship and specifically targeted you?" Su Xianmei immediately asked nervously.

"It doesn’t seem like it. It appears that the Young Sect Master of Frenzied Shark Sect happened to pass by. Fortunately, the goods are still intact," Huo Shu nodded solemnly.

"Of course, Emissary Su. If it weren’t for the brother who risked his life to protect us last night, we might not have survived."

"Death at sea means we can’t even reincarnate; we can only go to the Land of Oblivion."

"It was really a close call."

The group of warriors who followed Huo Shu scrambled forward upon seeing Su Xianmei’s curvaceous figure, eager to converse with her.

Su Xianmei furrowed her brows and asked, "Who is this brother?"

Huo Shu smiled and said, "He is a young man I met in the Imperial Capital who also wanted to go to sea. At his earnest request, I took him on board the ship. I took the liberty of making this decision, so I hope you won’t blame me, Emissary Su."

"Speaking of which, if it weren’t for this young brother, we might have died last night."

"This young brother is extraordinary. With his strength at the Second Layer of the Heaven Martial Realm, he single-handedly killed Sha Xing, who was at the Fifth Layer."

When Huo Shu mentioned Lin Bai, he couldn’t praise him enough.

He outright said, "Among all the people I have ever met in my life, he is undoubtedly the best."

Su Xianmei became curious and said, "Oh? Really? I would like to meet such a remarkable person. Huo Shu, is he still on the ship?"

"He?"

Huo Shu turned around and saw Lin Bai just coming down from the ship deck.

"Yes, it’s him."

Huo Shu pointed to a thin, white-robed youth amongst a group of burly men.

The young man wore a white robe, had a handsome face, was energetic, and had a refreshing smile. He seemed like the boy next door.

At that moment, Su Xianmei was watching the trading ship.

And Lin Bai also saw Su Xianmei and broke into a gentle smile.

"Lin Bai!"

Su Xianmei exclaimed.

Hearing this name, Huo Shu felt it was somewhat familiar and furrowed his brow in thought.

What?

Lin Bai?

The very Lin Bai who is the Spirit Sword Sect’s genius youth who dominated all in the Chaoyang Palace?

"What?"

"He’s Lin Bai!"

The warriors on the trading ship cried out in surprise, one after another.

Dumbfounded, they stared at Lin Bai with faces of shock.

They had never expected that this white-robed youth who had come to sea with them would turn out to be Lin Bai himself.

"Isn’t he the Lin Bai who suppressed the military geniuses in Chaoyang Palace and defeated outstanding disciples from the Four Major Sects with his sword?"

"He looks so young. He doesn’t even look twenty."

"A true young hero."

"Damn! I actually came to sea with Lin Bai. Once I get back, I can really show off. My friends probably haven’t even seen Lin Bai."

"But hang on, weren’t rumors saying Lin Bai is really ugly? He actually looks quite handsome."

With Lin Bai’s identity revealed, his presence was such that it overshadowed even Su Xianmei’s curvaceous figure, drawing the gazes of everyone present onto him.

Su Xianmei laughed and waved him over, "Little brother, come here."

Smiling, Lin Bai disembarked from the trading ship and came over to Su Xianmei’s side, greeting her with a fist and palm salute, "Sister Su, long time no see."

Su Xianmei laughed and replied, "You little rascal! You’ve made quite a name for yourself since we last met, haven’t you?"

Huo Shu looked dumbfoundedly at Lin Bai and asked, "Young man, are you really Lin Bai?"

"Indeed." Lin Bai nodded.

"Are you really the Lin Bai who suppressed military geniuses in the Chaoyang Palace and defeated outstanding disciples from the Four Major Sects with his sword?" Huo Shu asked in disbelief.

"Genuine and true," Lin Bai replied with a light laugh.

Huo Shu’s worldview had been shattered.

As a warrior himself, Huo Shu had always admired the strong.

After learning of Lin Bai’s feats in Chaoyang Palace, many warriors in the Shenwu Kingdom, including Huo Shu, had taken Lin Bai as their goal to surpass and idol to look up to.

When Lin Bai said that he was "just an ordinary person" while chatting on the ship, Huo Shu was a little displeased, and he’d even argued for Lin Bai at that time.

Huo Shu could have never imagined that the famous youth of Shenwu Kingdom who suppressed military geniuses, defeated outstanding disciples from the four major Sects and was admired by countless warriors of Shenwu Kingdom, was actually standing right beside him.

Seeing Huo Shu’s surprised face, Su Xianmei smiled lightly and said, "That’s Lin Bai. I can verify it."

A genius youth had emerged in Shenwu Kingdom.

The Treasure Pavilion must have been the first to receive the news, so it was natural that Su Xianmei had also heard of it.

Upon hearing Lin Bai’s name associated with Spirit Sword Sect, Su Xianmei knew it was the same person she knew.

"Little brother, come, let’s go inside and chat about old times. I want to hear all about how you became the top dog at Chaoyang Palace." Su Xianmei grasped Lin Bai’s hand and began walking towards the City of Thousand Islands.

Su Xianmei’s hand was warm and soft.

Lin Bai didn’t quite know how to react when she grabbed his hand.

"Huo Shu, bring everything inside and have someone guard them strictly. If anything goes wrong, watch out for your own neck." Su Xianmei coldly said to Huo Shu.

Huo Shu came back to his senses and respectfully replied, "Yes."

Lin Bai was being led by Su Xianmei which made all the warrior’s green with envy.

Normally, it would be impossible for them to even get within three steps of Su Xianmei, but now Lin Bai was being led by her.

Such jealousy-inducing sight!

They sighed enviously as they realized that a genius’s status and identity really made a difference.

No wonder so many people wanted fame and fortune, even if they had to risk everything for it.
