The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 703 - 701: Pointing the Sword at the Miracle Ridge!

Chapter 703: Chapter 701: Pointing the Sword at the Miracle Ridge!

After Wu Song and the rich young master left.

An hour later, a decree came from the imperial palace, detailing the dissolution of the engagement between the First Princess and Lin Bai.

After an hour of healing, Lin Bai’s internal injuries had almost healed.

In the Great Hall.

The First Princess sat disconsolately on a chair, holding a decree in her hand, her face bitter, pale, and her eyes filled with unshed tears.

Lin Bai slowly walked over, smiled and said, "Has your father’s decree arrived? Is it to cancel our engagement?"

The First Princess nodded painfully.

"Ha ha, it’s only reasonable. Although Shenwu Kingdom had a place among the 700 states of Lingdong, in the face of the giant on the Miracle Ridge, it was truly insignificant."

"If your father insisted on not canceling our engagement, I am afraid that Wu Song would kill your father on the spot, and even destroy Shenwu Kingdom in his rage."

"Canceling the engagement is the best solution."

Lin Bai said with a smile.

The First Princess simply nodded, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

Lin Bai sat down, took the First Princess’s hand, and said, "Our feelings for each other can’t be severed by this insignificant decree to cancel our engagement!"

The First Princess nodded and looked at Lin Bai, saying, "I know."

Lin Bai said, "But you’re still not happy?"

The First Princess shook her head and said, "I was just thinking, this world is really too ruthless. With power, you can change everything under Heaven, turn right to wrong, and wrong to right."

"Take this matter as an example, if we were strong enough, why should we fear Wu Song?"

"Not only Wu Song, if we were strong enough, why fear Chulong Courtyard? Why fear the Miracle Ridge? Why fear...all beings under Heaven!"

"When all is said and done, we are just too weak."

The First Princess said with a bitter smile.

At this moment, in the heart of the First Princess, the seed of a strong one was continuously sprouting.

The First Princess had always been competitive and never admitted defeat. Wu Song’s words had made the seed of aspiring to be the Supreme Under Heaven sprout in the First Princess’s heart...

"Don’t think about it."

Lin Bai laughed, picked up the First Princess, and said, "Let’s go rest."

The First Princess complained, "I’m not in the mood to rest now!"

"Aren’t you worried?"

"Wu Song has a one-year agreement with you!"

"How can you still be so careless, you’re like a child, not worried at all."

The First Princess said with an angry face.

The First Princess was really worried. If Lin Bai didn’t defeat Wu Song after a year, she might really fall into Wu Song’s hands.

At that time, if the First Princess still insisted on resisting Wu Song, she might provoke the wrath of Chulong Couryard, and Shenwu Kingdom would surely be ravaged.

Lin Bai laughed and said, "It’s not that I’m not worried, it’s just that I don’t think there’s anything to worry about."

"Leilei, if you knew that the enemies I have to face are ten times, a hundred times, even a thousand times, ten thousand times stronger than Wu Song, than the Miracle Ridge, than the Barbaric Ancient Continent, then you would understand that Wu Song is just a clown."

"Rest assured, within a year, I will kill Wu Song!"

Hearing Lin Bai’s determined words and the icy tone in his words.

The First Princess asked softly, "Do you have enemies stronger than Wu Song?"

Upon hearing this question, Lin Bai’s face turned somber, his expression icy: "Yes."

The First Princess asked, "Who?"

"The Giant God Clan!"

...

In Lingnan, the land of seventy-two countries.

Not only were there seventy-two super Martial Art Empires in Lingnan, but there were also many powerful sects coexisting.

Among them, the strongest was the Saint Seal Sect.

At the moment, in a dim palace of the Saint Seal Sect, hundreds of old men in black robes, both male and female, gathered in a circle. In front of them, an image appeared.

This image was Jian Xuan’s slaughter scene in the Shengyue Sect.

"It’s Jian Xuan!"

"That’s right, it’s him."

"I can’t believe that Jian Xuan did not improve his cultivation at all in the hundred years that he disappeared, he is still on the Human Elixir Realm."

"Yeah, I thought he was a promising talent."

These robed elders all whispered and laughed amongst themselves.

"Gentlemen, let’s not stray from the topic at hand, we are not here to discuss Jian Xuan’s talents!"

"Now that Jian Xuan has reappeared, the fragment must be in his hands."

"Jian Xuan faked his death at the Shengyue Sect merely to mislead people. Now, he must have already left the Spirit Sword Sect, and disappeared again."

"Indeed, now that Jian Xuan is missing again, he must be seeking greater power!"

"Beyond the 700 states of Lingdong, the best place is the Miracle Ridge! Jian Xuan should be practicing there."

"Since this is the case, our Saint Seal Sect should not give up this opportunity. Last time, we almost lost to the Su Dynasty. This time, the Saint Seal Sect must use all its strength and bring the fragment back home!"

The venerable elders debated, each offering their thoughts.

"This fragment is extremely important. It’s something the Central Holy Nation specifically asked for. Whoever obtains the fragment can receive a great blessing from the Central Holy Nation!"

"If our Saint Seal Sect gets this fragment, dominating the Territory of all Nations will be no longer a dream. Even dominating East Continent is not just an idle boast!"

"I agree with what the elders are saying. Since this fragment is something the Central Holy Nation specifically wants, it must be extremely valuable!"

"It’s not just our Saint Seal Sect, the other sects in Lingnan have also sent experts to the Miracle Ridge. We lost our chance at the Spirit Sword Sect last time, and we absolutely cannot give up this time."

"Sect Leader, let us go. If we join forces, we will turn the Miracle Ridge inside out. We don’t believe we can’t find Jian Xuan!"

The various Elders volunteered.

In this darkened hall, a stern middle-aged man seated on a black-gold dragon throne coldly asked, "Even if you find Jian Xuan, could you bring the fragment back?"

"Such a massive move by the Saint Seal Sect will surely attract the attention of all the Kingdoms and Sects of Lingnan. If we find the fragment, we might become targets of all and be besieged by all the Kingdoms and Sects of Lingnan!"

"Although the Saint Seal Sect is currently the strongest Sect in Lingnan, it cannot withstand the combined forces of all the Kingdoms and Sects of Lingnan!"

"This, it’s not worth it!"

The Saint Seal Sect Master shook his head and said.

"Then, according to the Sect Leader, what should we do?" An elder asked.

The Saint Seal Sect Master responded, "Select our own disciples, preferably those who are the direct disciples of the elders, around the Half-step Divine Pill Realm, to join the Miracle Ridge. Train while seeking the whereabouts of the fragment!"

"Once the fragment is found and brought back, the Shengyue Sect will surely reward us greatly!"

The Saint Seal Sect Master said.

"That’s a good plan, Sect Leader. I agree!"

"I agree too!"

After the Saint Seal Sect Master shared his plan, it was met with approval from the majority of the elders in the darkened great hall.

The Shengyue Sect Master continued, "We should get ready quickly. By now, all the Kingdoms and Sects in Lingnan would have received the news. Like us, they may also be planning to send disciples into the Miracle Ridge to find the fragment!"

"This time, we, the Shengyue Sect, will spare no effort. We will not rest until we find and retrieve the fragment!"

The Saint Seal Sect Master said with determination.

"Yes, Sir!"

Upon hearing such firm words from the Saint Seal Sect Master, all of the elders chorused in respectful agreement.
