The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 479 - 478: Canghai Yuntai Palace! Di Huayue!

Chapter 479: Chapter 478: Canghai Yuntai Palace! Di Huayue!

Lin Bai said lightly, "It’s all right now. My master came to my rescue, otherwise, with my cultivation two weeks ago, I wouldn’t have been able to withstand Su Zhan’s power."

"Did you send someone?"

Lin Bai curiously asked.

The First Princess nodded and said, "Hmm, but the person I sent reported that you were in seclusion."

Lin Bai laughed and said, "The day after the core martial artist assessment ended, my master dragged me off to cultivate. I wasn’t in the territory of the Spirit Sword Sect. Sorry to have worries you."

"First Princess, you look so haggard and full of worries. Did something happen in the imperial court?"

The First Princess said, "It’s the affairs of the Prime Minister."

Lin Bai asked, "What do you mean?"

The First Princess said, "Ever since you warned me and my father, we started plotting against the Prime Minister."

"But that old fox is so cunning that it’s impossible to catch him out. Over the past month, not only did we fail to clip his wings, he schemed to eliminate some of my confidants."

Lin Bai said, "It looks like the Prime Minister is waiting for an opportunity. This man is an old and cunning fox. You must be careful."

"Do you need my help?"

Lin Bai asked.

The First Princess shook her head and said, "No need. Even though he’s very cunning, after all, the royal family now controls all the power within the Shenwu Kingdom, no matter how cunning the Prime Minister is, it will be very difficult for him to act against the royal family."

"Don’t be distracted by royal matters. The Spirit Sword Sect needs to be revitalized, so you should focus on the sect’s affairs."

Lin Bai laughed and said, "The Spirit Sword Sect is in good hands with Ji Bei, Ji Bai, and the Second Elder. They can cope perfectly."

Swipe--

Just at that time, Lin Bai felt a flash of killing intent over his body.

Lin Bai slowly turned his head and glanced at the seats of the Sheng Yue Sect.

The person who emitted the killing intent towards Lin Bai wasn’t Tang Tianhao.

It was a young man behind Tang Tianhao, Wang Yingjie.

Following Lin Bai’s gaze, the First Princess said solemnly, "His name is Wang Yingjie, one of the three swords of the Shengyue Sect. He recently broke through to the middle stage of the half-step Divine Pill Realm and is extremely arrogant."

"Now he is counted as the first genius under the King of Sheng Yue in the Shengyue Sect."

"He just injured Sun Qian, and it’s uncertain whether he will act against the Spirit Sword Sect."

Lin Bai showed a faint smile, retracted his eyes, and said, "Never worry, his current cultivation at the half-step Divine Pill Realm is not enough to threaten me."

Lin Bai stretched out his arm to gently hold the First Princess in his arms.

In front of everyone, the First Princess’s face turned crimson, but she didn’t resist, instead, she leant into Lin Bai’s arms, resting on his shoulder.

Only in this moment, was the tired expression on the First Princess’s face slghtly faded.

Being in Lin Bai’s arms, she felt warmth, security, sweetness, and happiness.

Swipe--

Suddenly at this moment, a glance of killing intent flashed over Lin Bai again.

Lin Bai looked up, this killing intent came from the seats of Canghai Yuntai Palace.

The First Princess also glanced over sidelong.

Canghai Yuntai Palace!

Lin Bai looked at an elegant young master seated above Canghai Yuntai Palace.

When Lin Bai and the First Princess looked at him, the young man raised his wine cup and smiled at Lin Bai.

Seeing this man, the First Princess instantly narrowed her eyes and a trace of fear crossed her face.

"Di Huayue!"

Upon hearing the shout of the First Princess, Lin Bai said in a deep voice, "The third on the Shenwu Genius List, Di Huayue."

The First Princess nodded gravely, "Yes, Di Huayue’s talent ranks within the top five of Canghai Yuntai Palace, only second to Lin Zi’er and Duan Canghai. He possesses Earth Grade 7 Martial Soul, which has allowed him to cultivate to the late stage of the Half-Step Divine Pill Realm."

"It seems that he bears no small grudge against you."

"That’s understandable, you’ve killed so many top fighters of the Canghai Yuntai Palace. It’s normal for them to hold a grudge against you!"

The First Princess added ominously.

Lin Bai laughed and said, "It doesn’t seem he resents me for killing so many disciples of the Canghai Yuntai Palace, but because he saw me holding you, only then did he release the killing intent."

Upon hearing this, the First Princess blushed.

Lin Bai asked with a smile, "Does he fanciable you?"

The First Princess spoke incoherently, "He did try to pursue me once, but I rejected him because I had no feelings for him."

Lin Bai chuckled, "Oh, it seems this little rascal is still quite adamant."

"Hmph."

Lin Bai sneered coldly.

The First Princess gave a delightful smile, and asked, "Are you jealous?"

Lin Bai chuckled, "Do I need to be jealous? If I have to be jealous over such trivial matters, then I might as well stop cultivating and be consumed by jealousy every day."

"Alright, I admit that I’m a little bit jealous, but not much."

Lin Bai uttered, with an awkward grin on his face.

"Hahaha," the First Princess attempted to stifle her laughter, grinning secretly behind her hand.

Seeing the man they love getting jealous because of them, that is something every woman feels exhilarated about.

It proves at least that the man has feelings for her.

Just then, Ji Bei made his way to the center of the square.

Ji Bei that day looked radiant, elegant, his face filled with joy and delight.

Ji Bei raised his hand to indicate for silence and said, "As an Elder of the Spirit Sword Sect Elder Hall, I am here today to thank everyone who has traveled from afar to attend the inaugural ceremony of our new Sect Leader Supreme."

"Thank you all for coming from afar. After today’s inauguration ceremony, everyone is invited to stay within the Spirit Sword Sect. I will assign junior disciples to arrange for your food, accommodation and tour of our surrounding landscape."

"If you have any demands, please feel free to voice them out. As long as it is something the Spirit Sword Sect can accomplish, we definitely won’t refuse."

Ji Bei said this with a chuckle.

Seeing Ji Bei’s smile, Lin Bai and the First Princess exchanged glances. They both held back their smiles and said, "I guess the Second Elder, Lord Bei, and the Junior Marquis are the happiest about Su Zhan’s downfall."

Lin Bai chuckled, "Indeed, they have devoted their whole lives, their youth, and hard work to the Spirit Sword Sect. They’ve been dreaming of witnessing its return to glory. Yet, under Su Zhan’s rule, the sect has been left corrupted and scarred."

The First Princess nodded her head in agreement.

"We’re flattered by the gracious hosting of the Spirit Sword Sect."

"Indeed, our visit to the Spirit Sword Sect really allowed us to witness the grandeur of a major sect. We’re truly honored and overwhelmed by the warm reception miles away."

"We’re grateful for the Spirit Sword Sect’s hospitality. We wish the Spirit Sword Sect to soar thousands of miles and pierce through the starry rivers!"

"We’re grateful for the Spirit Sword Sect’s hospitality. We wish the Spirit Sword Sect to soar thousands of miles and pierce through the starry rivers!"

Ji Bei laughed and announced, "After the Heavenly Sacrifice ritual, all of you must enjoy and drink to your heart’s content. Don’t go home sober!"

"Hahaha."

"Without further ado, let us welcome, the new Sect Leader Supreme of the Spirit Sword Sect, Su Jiannan!"

Ji Bei called out, gesticulating.

Immediately, the disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect bowed in respect, crying in unison, "We welcome the Sect Leader Supreme!"

"We welcome the Sect Leader Supreme!"

Over five thousand disciples were chanting together, causing the ground to tremble with their combined voices, unstoppable like an unsheathed sharp sword!

All the guests witnessing the ceremony were overcome by the staggering cries.

Lin Bai too, stopped laughing, observing the ceremonial square with a solemn look on his face,

Suddenly, there was a shocking storm across the sky and earth. A wave of Human Elixir Realm’s power swept across.

Hisss!

The oppressive force of a human elixir realm that rolled in was like a heavenly might.

Under the astonished gazes of all guests, an elder figure garbed in a purple robe, holding a golden sword, slowly made his way from the edges of the ceremonial square.

He was once the Second Elder of the Spirit Sword Sect, and now he is the Sect Leader Supreme!

His name was Su Jiannan!

He was an old man who spent his entire life striving for the revival of the Spirit Sword Sect!

When Lin Bai looked at the Second Elder, his eyes were filled with respect and awe.
