The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 549 - 548: Prince of Fire Sword

Chapter 549: Chapter 548: Prince of Fire Sword

The red-haired man bellowed harshly, "Who are you, lurking around the Famous Sword Manor like a sneaky ghost, speak up or I will kill you!"

The moment he opened his mouth, an aura of arrogance exuded from him.

The way he spoke gave away that he was probably someone who had been in a position of power for a long time, someone used to having control over life and death.

And coincidentally, Lin Bai had no patience for such people.

If the man had spoken politely, Lin Bai might have politely chatted with him.

But the man threatened to kill from the moment he opened his mouth. Anybody would feel uncomfortable facing such threats.

Was I born just to be killed by you?

With a somewhat unhappy expression, Lin Bai said, "Why am I here? Of course, I am here to participate in the Sword Discourse Conference held by the Famous Sword Manor, what else would I be doing? Watching you eat shit?"

Upon hearing this, the red-haired man roared in anger, "How dare you speak to me like this, you brute, do you even know who I am?"

Lin Bai replied irritably, "I don’t."

The red-haired man sneered, "Hmm, stand still, don’t get weak in the knees. I am the prince of Fire Burning Kingdom, one of the top_Sword Cultivators_of the country, also known as the Prince of Fire Sword!"

"I’ve never heard of you, now scram." Lin Bai said after listening to him.

The Fire Burning Kingdom, even within the Lingdong 700 states, can be considered a mid-level dynasty, much more powerful than Shenwu Kingdom and nearly on the same rank with Dayue Kingdom.

And the Prince of Fire Sword is extremely renowned within Fire Burning Kingdom.

All the warriors of the Fire Burning Kingdom believe that as long as the Prince of Fire Sword participated in the Sword Debate and Martial Arts Competition, he would certainly be in the top ten.

Therefore, the Prince of Fire Sword had come, but his goal was not the top ten, but number one!

The Prince of Fire Sword believed that there was no one else in the world who was qualified to be number one except for him.

The Prince of Fire Sword growled in a cold voice, "You, a middle stage warrior of the Half-step Divine Pill Realm, dare to speak to me like that. If you were in my Fire Burning Kingdom, I would have thrown you into the furnace and burnt you into ashes!"

"But considering my good mood today, and since I’m here to participate in the Sword Debate and Martial Arts Competition hosted at Famous Sword Manor, I don’t want to start a fight before the competition. You can kneel down and admit your mistake, and I may spare your life!"

The Prince of Fire Sword declared arrogantly, his royal demeanor was self-evident.

Upon hearing this, Lin Bai couldn’t help but laugh in his heart.

At that moment, Lin Bai noticed that the Prince of Fire Sword was at the Great Perfection of Half-step Divine Pill Realm.

Instantly, Lin Bai chuckled, "And, what if I don’t kneel down and admit my mistake? What will you do?"

The Prince of Fire Sword sneered, "Then I’ll show you the power of the sword art of my Fire Burning Kingdom!"

Lin Bai laughed, "Great, I am curious to see that too!"

Hearing this, the Prince of Fire Sword realized that Lin Bai had no intention of admitting his mistake. He immediately roared in anger, "It seems you are the kind who needs to learn the hard way. You uncultured bumpkins need to realize your place!"

"Take this!"

With a leap from his warhorse, the Prince of Fire Sword unleashed a long flaming sword from his storage bag, lunging it towards Lin Bai.

As the sword came at him, engulfing waves of fiery aura as if turning the surroundings into a hell of intense flames.

The scorching fire waves hit Lin Bai’s body, causing a burning sensation on his skin.

Just as the Prince of Fire Sword’s sword attacked.

Just as Lin Bai was about to counter, suddenly a sword Qi dashed out rapidly from inside the Famous Sword Manor, blocking the attack of the Prince of Fire Sword.

"Who dares to block me?"

The Prince of Fire Sword, being blocked, roared in anger and frustration.

At this moment, a young man with a cold face and arrogant eyebrows stepped out from the gate of Famous Sword Manor.

The sword that repelled the Prince of Fire Sword was cast by him.

"I’m Su Xingmang from Famous Sword Manor. Prince of Fire Sword, I’ve heard plenty about you."

The young man stepped down and smiled at the Prince of Fire Sword.

Upon hearing this man’s name, the Prince of Fire Sword immediately chuckled, "So it turns out to be one of the eighteen Sword Masters of Famous Sword Manor, the Star Sword Master Su Xingmang. I’ve heard so much about you."

At hearing the Prince of Fire Sword mention one of the eighteen Sword Masters and the Star Sword Master, Lin Bai curiously glanced at this Su Xingmang.

Su Xingmang lightly smiled, "How could my insignificant fame compare to the Prince of Fire Sword? Your Highness, if you’re here to join us for the Sword Debate and Martial Arts Competition, please follow me into the mountain gate. I will arrange your accommodation. In three days, the March 3rd Sword Discourse Conference will begin."

With a faint smile, the Prince of Fire Sword said, "Su, please wait a moment. Let me teach this savage a lesson first."

Despite the appearance of Su Xingmang, the Prince of Fire Sword showed no sign of stopping. He coldly looked at Lin Bai and continued,

Noticing the Prince of Fire Sword’s resentful gaze, Su Xingmang quizzically looked at Lin Bai and laughed, "Prince of Fire Sword, you are of such noble standing. Why haggle with a minor warrior at the Mid-Stage of the Half-step Divine Pill Realm? Isn’t that beneath you?"

The Prince of Fire Sword angrily said, "He has been blindly insolent, disrespecting me. If he were in my Fire Burning Kingdom, he would have been executed long ago."

Lin Bai sneered, "If I were in Fire Burning Kingdom, it’s still uncertain who would be the Emperor."

"You disrespectful swine, what did you say?"

The Prince of Fire Sword glared at Lin Bai in rage.

Su Xingmang quickly pulled the Prince of Fire Sword aside and said, "Your Highness, it’s getting late. Let’s go inside. Since he said he is also here to participate in the Sword Debate and Martial Arts Competition, you could settle your score with him then in the Martial Arts Arena in Debate City. There is no need to fight here."

"Moreover, the Famous Sword Manor has a standing order. Each year in March, during the Sword Discourse Conference, no one is allowed to attack or kill someone within a ten thousand mile range of Famous Sword Manor. Otherwise, regardless of the attacker’s identity or origin, Famous Sword Manor will retaliate and punish severely"

Su Xingmang gently smiled.

The Prince of Fire Sword calmly said, "Since I came to compete, I will of course follow the rules of the Famous Sword Manor."

"You little creep, if I see you in Debate City, I swear I’ll show you no mercy!"

The Prince of Fire Sword glared maliciously at Lin Bai one last time before following Su Xingmang into the gate of the Famous Sword Manor.

Lin Bai curled his lip dismissively and sneered, "It’s not yet clear who will die."

Lin Bai had no interest in bothering about the Prince of Fire Sword.

What concerned Lin Bai more was, where was that Elder in Purple Robe?

It had been over five hours now.

"Guess that old man isn’t going to come after all, haha." At this moment, Lin Bai had figured out probably the Elder in Purple Robe had given up on chasing Lin Bai, conceding that he couldn’t outrun or defeat Lin Bai, and decided not to look for him anymore.

"Well, it was just a game for fun after all, no need to dwell on it."

"Let’s go into the Famous Sword Manor already. I wonder how many masters have already arrived."

At that moment, Lin Bai stood at the gate of Famous Sword Manor looking up at the palace buildings scattered across the mountains, where warriors were coming and going.

Among them, there certainly were extraordinary Sword Cultivators who had made a name for themselves throughout the ages. They were waiting for the Sword Discourse Conference, which would commence in three days!
