The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 674 - 672: Moon Invitation Tower! (30th Update)

Chapter 674: Chapter 672: Moon Invitation Tower! (30th Update)

The moment the plaque arrived in the Shengyue Sect, the entire sect was incensed.

Eight consecutive Human Elixir Realm masters were outraged, issuing a stern threat: "If Lin Bai is not defeated at the Forbidden Summit of the Dayue Kingdom, we will apologize with our lives!"

Later that night, eight or nine Human Elixir Realm masters left the Shengyue Sect, heading toward the Forbidden Summit in the Dayue Kingdom.

Shenwu Kingdom! Imperial Palace!

The First Princess clenched her fists tightly, with an iron green color on her face, fuming with rage, and Chu Jiangliu below was shivering in fear.

At this moment in the Great Hall, the First Princess did not say a single word, but the terrifying pressure alone was enough to fill Chu Jiangliu with fear.

"Dammit! Chu Jiangliu, has the person I asked you to send to the Spirit Sword Sect to inquire about Lin Bai returned?" the First Princess angrily questioned.

Chu Jiangliu answered in terror, "They came back, but our people did not see Lin Bai, he seems to have already gone to the Dayue Kingdom."

"How could he be so reckless!" The First Princess raged, "To provoke the Human Elixir Realm masters of the Shengyue Sect!"

"Chu Jiangliu, send a two-million-strong legion to the frontier."

"If the Prince Consort dies on the Forbidden Summit in the Dayue Kingdom, I will turn the Shengyue Sect into ruins within three days!" the First Princess coldly declared.

Chu Jiangliu hastily responded, "Your Highness, that won’t do, once we deploy troops to the Southern Region Frontier, the Dayue Kingdom will surely react accordingly, and the two armies will face off, leading to an inevitable war."

"Moreover, the Southern Region has just stabilized, if the war breaks out again, all our efforts over the past year will be in vain."

"I implore Your Highness to reconsider."

Chu Jiangliu pleaded earnestly.

The First Princess sharply retorted, "I have given it due thought, deploy the troops!"

Chu Jiangliu wanted to persuade the First Princess further, but upon hearing her resolute decision, he had no choice but to comply, "This servant obeys your command."

Chu Jiangliu received the order and started commanding the troops.

Meanwhile, the First Princess stood in the Great Hall, her eyes flashing with a vicious light, gritted her teeth, and said, "Lin Bai, when I get hold of you, I won’t let you off lightly."

Canghai Yuntai Palace!

At the news from the people below, Qing Haitian asked in confusion, "Are you sure? Lin Bai went to the Dayue Kingdom? And he’s so brazen, intending to provoke the Human Elixir Realm masters of the Shengyue Sect?"

An elder below answered, "Yes, he even sent a plaque that said ’The Human Elixir Realm Warriors of the Shengyue Sect Eat Shit’ to the Shengyue Sect, angering all the Human Elixir Realm elders, they have all gone to the Forbidden Summit."

"Furthermore, according to the spies we have in the Spirit Sword Sect, it has been several days since the Sect Leader, Ji Bei, Ji Bai, and other high-ranking elders in Elder Pavilion have been seen!"

"Now, the upper ranks of the Spirit Sword Sect, those who are above the Late Stage of the Half-Step Divine Pill Realm, seem to have disappeared from the face of the earth."

Upon hearing this, Qing Haitian’s eyes narrowed, his brow furrowed, "What exactly is the Spirit Sword Sect up to? All of their high-ranking elders have disappeared... "

After deep thought, a glimmer of insight suddenly flashed in Qing Haitian’s eyes.

"Jian Xuan!"

He suddenly thought of this name and instantly said, "Call Prince and King over, and come with me to the Dayue Kingdom."

"If we manage to handle this matter well, not only will the Canghai Yuntai Palace rise within Shenwu Kingdom, but we will also have a place in the Miracle Ridge and Lingnan!"

Thinking of the hope for improvement, Qing Haitian’s spirits soared.

Now, Dayue Kingdom’s Imperial City was quite busy.

In just half a month, nearly seven hundred million martial artists from over a dozen surrounding Empires rushed to the Dayue Kingdom, filling every inn to the brim.

And at this moment, there were still eight or nine days left before the battle at the Forbidden Summit, and these martial artists had nothing better to do than drink and have Martial Arts Competitions.

Pretty much, the entire Imperial Capital of the Dayue Kingdom.

With every kilometer traveled, a bloody battle would break out, with hundreds of Warriors falling dead on the streets every day.

As a massive number of Warriors swarmed in, the Dayue Kingdom had no choice but to deploy their army for suppression, forcing many Warriors to wait quietly.

The Inviting Moon Tower was the largest tavern in the Imperial Capital of Dayue Kingdom, offering a unique and exquisite wine year-round known as Moon Pearl Tears.

Moon Pearl Tears was celebrated not only within the Dayue Kingdom but also in the surrounding dozen Martial Arts Empires. It was also one of the three splendid wines offered at the Dayue Kingdom’s Imperial Banquet. Many warriors were drawn to it, eager to taste this exceptional wine.

At this moment, on the top level, the ninth floor of the Inviting Moon Tower.

A man, cloaked and in a robe, sat calmly on the ninth floor, sipping wine while glancing occasionally at the crowded streets outside of the Inviting Moon Tower.

Suddenly, a swordsman with a fierce scar across his face and a surly expression stepped into the Inviting Moon Tower.

Unfortunately, there were no vacancies on the ninth floor, as it was already filled to capacity.

"The Sword Intent emanating from this man is horrifying. He must at least be at the late stage perfection of the second rank."

"Every time, those who possess such powerful Sword Intent are definitely among the peak experts in the Lingdong 700 States!"

"Who could this person be..."

"Isn’t this Li Hai, the top blade cultivator of Shenfeng Kingdom?"

Many of the warriors drinking on the ninth floor turned their astonished faces to the scar-faced youth.

Soon, his identity was recognized by the masses.

Li Hai, the number one blade cultivator of the Shenfeng Kingdom.

"So Li Hai is also here."

"I heard that in the recent Blade Cultivation Competition, Li Hai only lost by one move in a match against the King of Sheng Yue and was ranked second!"

"Yes, Li Hai is really formidable."

Many warriors cast wary glances at Li Hai as they spoke.

When the Famous Sword Manor held the Sword Cultivation Competition, other places were concurrently holding other competitions.

For instance, the competition to decide the top blade cultivator was similar to the sword cultivation one. It gathered the most formidable blade cultivators among the Lingdong 700 States for a showdown, deciding the top one.

Back then, the King of Sheng Yue defeated Li Hai and clinched the top spot; Li Hai could only take second place.

There were other competitions as well, such as those for Lingdong’s top pill cultivator, array cultivator, spear cultivator, and fist cultivator.

In the current martial world, the weapons most commonly used by warriors were the saber, spear, sword, and fist. Very few warriors used anything else.

Hence, none of the top saber, sword, spear, and fist cultivators of Lingdong were pushovers.

And Lin Zi’er’s title of top genius of Lingdong was entirely based on the grade of her Martial Soul!

Whichever Martial Soul had the highest grade held the title of Lingdong’s top genius!

Li Hai, expressionless and with a cold demeanor, approached the ninth floor. His sharp gaze swept over the crowd, causing many warriors to lower their heads out of fear.

His eyes then landed on a table where a man in white was drinking.

Thus, Li Hai walked over, slammed his treasured blade onto the table, and an intimidating Sword Intent spread out!

"Get lost!"

Without even looking at the man in white, Li Hai issued a cold command.

The man in white, who was just about to take a sip of wine, was taken aback by Li Hai’s words. He slightly raised his head in surprise, revealing a young face from under his cloak!

It was Lin Bai, the one who had declared that he would leave the bodies of all of the Moon Sect’s Elixir Realm experts at the Forbidden Summit for the King of Sheng Yue to collect!
