Chapter 508: Chapter 507: Qi Mountain! (Fifth Update)

Upon hearing Qin Hai’s wail, Lin Bai sneered, "Old geezer, didn’t you want to kill me? Come on."

"I killed your son, come avenge him!"

Lin Bai was not hiding or dodging, he was provoking Qin Hai instead.

Qin Hai’s eyes were bloodshot, his ghastly face looked at Lin Bai like a beast, gritting his teeth he said, "I not only want to kill you, but I also want to mutilate your corpse, dismember you into five parts and pulverize your bones into dust!"

"Come and take it!"

Qin Hai roared.

"Come, let’s see who kills whom!"

The four Spirit Vortices in Lin Bai’s body simultaneously exploded into action, with an immense amount of True Qi bursting out from his body.

In the blink of an eye, Lin Bai was about to engage in close quarters combat with Qin Hai.

At that moment, Meng Yuanhan grabbed Qin Hai’s shoulder and said coldly, "Lin Bai saved my son. Do you want to kill him in front of me?"

Qin Hai looked at Meng Yuanhan’s icy gaze and his face turned pale and he stammered, "But, Alliance Leader, he is a spy sent by the Yishan Family."

"Whether he is a spy or not will be known soon."

Meng Yuanhan coldly said, with a wave of his hand, he pulled Qin Meng’s Storage Bag from afar into his hand.

Qin Hai watched Meng Yuanhan take the Storage Bag, his eyes revealing a hint of despair.

Meng Yuanhan rummaged through the Storage Bag for a bit, pulling out a compass, then he took the Storage Bag of the Second Young Master of Yishan, pulling out a second compass from within.

As the True Qi surged, the two Shadow Transmission Compasses activated, revealing shadows of people on them.

Qin Hai closed his eyes in despair.

Meng Yuanhan said coldly, "Qin Hai, do you still feel that your son was wronged in death?"

Qin Hai said, "I really didn’t expect this bastard to do such a despicable thing."

Meng Yuanhan coldly asked, "You mean to tell me you didn’t know about this?"

Qin Hai exclaimed in surprise, "Alliance Leader, what do you mean? I have always been loyal to Qi Mountain, without any ulterior motives, as clear as the day, as sure as the earth!"

Meng Yuanhan sneered, "I hope so."

At that moment, Qin Hai said, "But Alliance Leader, even so, this does not absolve Lin Bai of suspicion. I suspect he is also a spy for the Yishan Family."

"Better to kill by mistake than let go."

"Kill Lin Bai too."

Qin Hai suggested.

Giving a cold laugh, Lin Bai retorted, "Old geezer, from the moment you appeared, you wanted to kill me. You wanted to kill me just now and put the blame of your son’s crimes on me. Now again, you want to kill me to avenge your son."

"Come on, old geezer, I knew you wouldn’t let me off."

"Let’s fight, and see who kills whom!"

From the moment Qin Hai had appeared, he had harbored hostility towards Lin Bai.

He previously intended to kill Lin Bai as quickly as a lightning strike, placing all of the wrongdoings onto Lin Bai’s shoulders, as a way to acquit Qin Meng.

However, when Meng Yuanhan didn’t fall for it and chose to inspect Qin Meng’s Storage Bag, it made Qin Hai want to run away directly.

Lin Bai decisively killed Qin Meng with a single sword strike, obtaining his Storage Bag.

At this point, Qin Hai’s wish to kill Lin Bai was entirely personal enmity.

He wanted to avenge Qin Meng!

From the moment he appeared, Qin Hai had been eager to kill Lin Bai. Lin Bai had no intention of sparing someone like that.

Therefore, the moment Qin Meng tried to escape, before Meng Yuanhan could even react, Lin Bai was the first to strike with his sword.

Meng Yuanhan said coldly, "Enough, all of you stop the commotion. Given that Lin Bai killed the Second Young Master of Yishan and so many warriors from the Yishan Family just now, it is entirely believable that he is not a person from the Yishan Family."

"Furthermore, he is a suitor of my daughter."

"Qin Hai, if you have no connection to this incident with Qin Meng, please refrain from stirring the pot further, or else, if I discover any involvement, beware for your life," Brother Lin warned coldly.

Quivering, Qin Hai stammered, "I wouldn’t dare, I wouldn’t dare, my loyalty to Qi Mountain is as clear as day and night, as solid as the earth itself, I have no ulterior motives."

"Qin Meng is my son, and his despicable actions infuriate me too. I accept the blame for not disciplining him well. When we return to Qi Mountain, I will pay one million Spirit Stones as atonement."

"I plead that the Alliance Leader would believe in my innocence."

Qin Hai was tearful as he spoke.

Meng Yuanhan stated coldly, "I will not let this matter rest. Everyone associated with Qin Meng will be scrutinized, and any guilt found will not be pardoned."

"As for Lin Bai, since you are about to undertake a journey to the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, you might as well rest in Qi Mountain, considering how weary you must be from travel."

Meng Yuanhan’s voice conveyed an intimidating aura and an air of irreversibility.

Such was the influence of a Human Elixir Realm within the Lingdong 700 States, huh?

Like the emperor commanding his subjects.

Lin Bai was about to refuse.

But, Meng Yuanhan immediately interjected, "Do not refuse, this is for your own good. Qin Hai is right in saying that you are still a suspect. Go to Qi Mountain, I will investigate the flow of this incident."

"I will also assign someone to contact the Spirit Sword Sect, to verify your identity and seek justice."

Resigned, Lin Bai forced a smile and said, "Well, fine. I only came to ask for directions, didn’t expect to stir up such a mess."

Meng Yuanhan commanded loudly, "Take the corpses of Qi Mountain’s warriors back home for a dignified burial. As for the corpses from the Yishan family, leave them here for the Yishan Family to collect."

Meng Yuanhan said harshly.

Immediately, all the corpses of Qi Mountain’s warriors were taken away.

The group left Tiger Jumping Cliff and made their way back to Qi Mountain.

When Meng Yuanhan and the others arrived at Tiger Jumping Cliff, they had ridden a Griffin, a creature tamed within Qi Mountain, hence their speed was extremely fast; within a short half period, they had arrived at Tiger Jumping Cliff.

At this moment, Lin Bai too mounted a Griffin, and roughly half a period later, he returned to Qi Mountain.

Standing on the Griffin, Lin Bai peered from afar at the expansive range of mountains before him.

This was Qi Mountain.

Qi Mountain housed over a hundred thousand warriors and spanned an entire mountain range.

Even though it was deep into the night at Qi Mountain, there were still many adventurers moving to and fro.

The Griffin plunged from the night sky, landing in a wide square within Qi Mountain.

Meng Yuanhan instructed, "Yun Chuan, Yun Xiang, you two escort Lin Bai to rest."

Meng Yun Chuan smiled and replied, "Rest assured, father, I will take good care of Brother Lin."

"Brother Lin, come this way," Meng Yun Chuan said.

Puffing out a breath, Meng Yun Xiang said to Lin Bai, "Lin Bai, I know you like me, but let me tell you, the man I want has to be the king of these Hundred Thousand Great Mountains."

"So if you want to pursue me, go and kill ten Great Perfection beasts from the Half-step Divine Pill Realm first."

"Do you understand me?" Meng Yun Xiang said to Lin Bai.

After she spoke, Meng Yun Xiang turned and left.

Lin Bai watched her retreating figure and called, "Lady Meng, I really didn’t mean it that way...Lady Meng, Lady Meng..."

Lin Bai called out, but Meng Yun Xiang had already disappeared from sight.

"Alas, it seems I’ve done something wrong," Lin Bai sighed helplessly.
