The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 400 - 399: Kidnapping Consort Yun

Chapter 400: Chapter 399: Kidnapping Consort Yun

Inside the room.

In a square pool of about thirty square meters.

The Emperor of Dayue Kingdom leaned on the edge of the pool, with Consort Yun kneeling behind him, lightly pinching his shoulders.

Maidens around him gently poured hot water from buckets into the pool. Their movements were so delicate that they didn’t dare to let a single splash disturb the serene surface of the water.

The Emperor of Dayue Kingdom was now an elderly man nearing his twilight years. His strength and vigor had faded, his muscles sagged, and his face was tired. His eyes were vacant, as if his body had been hollowed out.

In contrast, Consort Yun was only seventeen or eighteen, in the prime of her youth. Her skin was as smooth and white as cream, her eyes clear like dew at dawn, her lips were irresistibly alluring, and her exquisite figure was enough to make any man’s resistance futile.

People couldn’t help but be envious. A man on the brink of death could still have such a beautiful consort.

It was no wonder everyone aspired to be the emperor.

The Emperor of Dayue Kingdom said with a smile, "My beloved consort, bear with it for some more days. Once the Second Prince returns victorious, I will make these guards retreat as far as they can, all right?"

Consort Yun spoke with a pout, "Hmph, do we really need to upset the whole city over a mere Lin Bai? Do we need to make our Dayue Kingdom become as tense as a battlefield because of him?"

"Who is this Lin Bai? Is he that influential?"

Consort Yun voiced her discontent.

The Emperor of Dayue Kingdom sighed, "I have received some information about this Lin Bai. About half a year ago, he joined the Spirit Sword Sect of Shenwu Kingdom and in just half a year, he rose from a humble Outer Sect Disciple to a core member of the Spirit Sword Sect."

"He is the top one among the Outer Sect Disciples of Spirit Sword Sect, the best among those in the Earth Martial Realm, a core member of the Sword Alliance, an unparalleled genius in the Chaoyang Palace of Shenwu Kingdom, and a talented youth of Shenwu Kingdom."

"In just half a year, he has gained significant recognition and fame. He virtually overshadowed all the other talents of Shenwu Kingdom, except for Duan Canghai."

"He’s no ordinary person. Among all those I’ve seen in my life, only the King of Sheng Yue could compare to him."

The Emperor of Dayue Kingdom stated in a steady voice.

Upon hearing this, Consort Yun’s eyes sparkled with excitement, "Is he really that powerful? Can he compare to the King of Sheng Yue? Your Majesty, you must be joking. The King of Sheng Yue is an expert on the verge of breaking through to the Human Elixir Realm."

The Emperor of Dayue Kingdom laughed, "I wouldn’t believe it either, but Shenwu Kingdom has been spreading strange rumors about him. They claim he’s the second greatest genius in Shenwu Kingdom, surpassed only by Duan Canghai."

Consort Yun exclaimed in a pleasantly surprised tone, "If he is really that extraordinary, I would love to meet him when I find the time."

The Emperor of Dayue Kingdom laughed, "Hahaha, there’s nothing difficult about it. Once the Second Prince conquers Shenwu Kingdom, I will order him to capture Lin Bai and bring him before you for a good look."

Consort Yun giggled, "Thank you for your generosity, Your Majesty."

"Hahahaha."

The Emperor of Dayue Kingdom laughed triumphantly.

Bang!

Just then, the door to the room was suddenly kicked open.

A young man dressed in white, with cold eyes and a sharp sword in hand, entered with murderous intent, "No need to wait, I am here."

"Who are you?"

A loud sound rang out, and the Emperor of Dayue Kingdom immediately stood up from the pool, glaring angrily at Lin Bai.

Consort Yun blanched and quickly grabbed all the clothes from a hanger, hastily putting them on. Her face betrayed her displeasure as she glared at Lin Bai.

"Who am I? Am I not the Lin Bai you were eager to see?" Lin Bai sneered.

"Lin Bai? You’re Lin Bai! This is the Forbidden City of the Dayue Kingdom, how did you get in? Where are the guards? Why didn’t they stop you!" The Emperor of Dayue Kingdom shrieked in rage.

Lin Bai laughed coldly, "Such trivial guards can stop warriors who walk in, but they can’t stop a warrior who descends from the sky."

"What!" The Emperor of Dayue Kingdom was horrified, staring at Lin Bai in disbelief.

The Emperor had previously received a message from Hejian City, informing him that Lin Bai was heading towards the Imperial Capital, targeting Consort Yun.

As a result, he had dispatched a hundred thousand of the Moon God Legion to guard Consort Yun.

But he never imagined that Lin Bai would descend from the sky.

Just as Lin Bai said, this hundred thousand-strong army could stop the warriors coming head-on, but they couldn’t stop a warrior descending from the sky.

At the edge of the pond.

The maids and eunuchs saw Lin Bai and screamed, "Assassins, assassins, protect His Majesty!"

But before these eunuchs and maids could finish their sentence.

Lin Bai’s eyes turned cold, and his figure transformed into a flash of lightning.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Several flashes of sword light flew up, and all the eunuchs and maids in the room fell under Lin Bai’s sword light in unison.

Blood was flowing freely, their eyes wide open as they died.

"Ah!"

The Emperor of Dayue Kingdom and Consort Yun were both taken aback.

These eunuchs and maids, all carefully chosen by the royal family with each of them holding a cultivation of Heaven Martial Realm First Layer, were all killed by Lin Bai in an instant.

Consort Yun was also extremely horrified to see this.

Lin Bai killed all the maids and eunuchs with one sword, raised his gaze, and looked at Consort Yun menacingly. He spoke in a cold voice, "You’re Consort Yun?"

Consort Yun stared blankly at Lin Bai without expression, neither speaking nor answering Lin Bai.

"Good, it seems it’s you then," Lin Bai said coldly.

"Come with me!"

Lin Bai dashed forward, grabbing Consort Yun’s shoulder.

"Ah!" Consort Yun screamed.

The Emperor of Dayue Kingdom roared with fury, "Lin Bai, you villain, let go of my consort! If you have the guts, come at me!"

Lin Bai glanced at the Emperor of Dayue Kingdom and said coldly, "You half-dead old man, you want to stop me?"

"Damn it!" The Emperor of the Dayue Kingdom was furious, his True Qi stirring and aimed at Lin Bai for an attack.

The palm attack came with great power, a powerful strike from a cultivator at the Heaven Martial Realm Ninth Layer.

Although the Emperor of the Dayue Kingdom had the cultivation of Heaven Martial Realm Ninth Layer, the vigor and vitality within his body had already receded. His palm attack, though powerful in appearance, was weak and unrealistic after the attack.

"Not worth a blow!"

Lin Bai looked contemptuously at the Emperor of the Dayue Kingdom. With one sword strike, he sent the Emperor flying and crashing hard against the wall. He spat out blood and looked extremely miserable.

"I won’t kill you!"

"I need you to put pressure on Tuoba Feng alive!"

"If you want Consort Yun to live, order Tuoba Feng to withdraw his troops."

"Otherwise, when the Shenwu Kingdom is destroyed, it will be the time of Consort Yun’s death."

"At that time, you can go to the imperial city of the Shenwu Kingdom to collect Consort Yun’s body."

Lin Bai glanced at the Emperor of Dayue Kingdom, took Consort Yun in his arms, and stepped out of the palace. His Feng Lei Divine Wings rolled up and, with Lin Bai and Consort Yun in tow, soared up to the Cloud Sky. In an instant, they disappeared within the Forbidden City.

"Your Majesty, save me!"

Consort Yun screamed as Lin Bai abducted her.

"My love!"

The Emperor of the Dayue Kingdom turned red with rage, and he roared hysterically.

"Come here! Where are all the people?"

The Emperor of the Dayue Kingdom kept roaring angrily.

At that time, a eunuch quickly ran into the palace, seeing the bodies lying everywhere he was frightened. He quickly knelt in front of the Emperor of Dayue Kingdom, "Please give your orders, Your Majesty."
