The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 722 - 720: Uninvited Guest!

Chapter 722: Chapter 720: Uninvited Guest!

Bai Xiaoxiao sighed lightly, "If only our days could always be so pleasant. Unfortunately, you and I have different destinies to face; our peaceful days won’t last long."

Lin Bai asked, "If one day I found my parents and returned home, also willing to put away my sword and retreat to the mountains, would you be willing to abandon your privilege and return to seclusion with me?"

"I would," Bai Xiaoxiao responded directly without hesitating.

Lin Bai nodded in satisfaction.

But after Bai Xiaoxiao’s responded, her sweet smile gradually solidified on her face, revealing a profound look in her eyes.

As Lin Bai sniffed Bai Xiaoxiao’s hair, he knew that she harbored imperial ambitions and she would not easily let go of what she had now.

But it wasn’t important to Lin Bai. What was important was that no matter where he and Bai Xiaoxiao ended up, their affection and love wouldn’t dissipate with distance and time.

At the time when Lin Bai and Bai Xiaoxiao were chatting in the waterside pavilion on the terrace.

A group of martial artists rushed to Lin Zhai on the outside.

Feng Hua looked up at the plaques of Lin Zhai and sneered coldly, "Brothers, be careful when we go in, so as not to alert the snake and let this bastard escape; that would be awful."

"This time, it would be best to capture him alive. If not, at least bring his head back! Understand?"

Feng Hua sneered and said behind the twenty or so martial artists.

These twenty or so martial artists were all genius disciples recruited by Liujing Xing for the Fist Daoist Courtyard. They were all at the Great Perfection of the Half-step Divine Pill Realm in cultivation, not weak at all.

When they heard that Liujing Xing wanted to catch someone, these warriors willingly exerted all their strength and resources to please him.

"Don’t worry, Brother Feng Hua, with us geniuses working together, even if this person has three heads and six arms, he would surely die!"

"That’s right, I don’t believe he can escape our Heavenly Spider Web today."

"Actually daring to kill the two young masters, Liu Ben and Liu Hai, this guy must be tired of living!"

These martial artists who followed Feng Hua, one after another, sneered.

Feng Hua sneered, "Hum, my brothers, rest assured, after this matter is dealt with, senior Liujing Xing has already agreed to put in good words for you in front of the Fist Daoist Courtyard elders. By that time, it should be easy for you to enter the Miracle Ridge."

Hearing Feng Hua’s words, these martial artists all started getting excited.

They had been stagnating in Tianding City for several years, dreaming of entering the Miracle Ridge.

Unfortunately, because the Miracle Ridge’s Three Stages and Five Obstacles were too difficult, they had not been able to pass despite trying for two to three years. Now, the opportunity to arrest Lin Bai might be their best chance in a lifetime to enter the Miracle Ridge.

"Let’s go!"

Feng Hua suddenly leaped up, crossed the wall, and carefully sneaked into Lin Zhai.

Inside the waterside pavilion on the terrace.

Woom—

Suddenly.

The complexion of Lin Bai stiffened, and his aura began to emanate.

Bai Xiaoxiao said, "What’s going on?"

Lin Bai replied, "We have a guest."

Upon hearing this, Bai Xiaoxiao looked at Lin Bai’s strange expression, whispering, "We are strangers in Tianding City and haven’t invited anyone. How could there be guests?"

She then became solemn, "Is it an unwelcome guest?"

Lin Bai smiled, "Can a person who breaks in be a good guest?"

"Be careful, Xiaoxiao. Let me see who it is!" Lin Bai said to Bai Xiaoxiao.

Bai Xiaoxiao nodded seriously, "Let’s go together, so we can back each other up. Don’t worry, my power may not be as strong as yours, but it’s not much weaker. I can defend myself."

Lin Bai laughed, "Alright."

Immediately, Lin Bai and Bai Xiaoxiao flickered and disappeared from the pavilion.

Feng Hua led the Liu Family’s martial artists and carefully sneaked into Lin Zhai.

"Split up and search! Shout when you find him!"

Feng Hua said gravely.

"Yes!"

Immediately, a group of people scattered and went in.

These twenty or so warriors were all geniuses among geniuses, possessing incredibly profound strength. They believed that even if they couldn’t beat Lin Bai in head-on combat, they could still stall him for a time without being killed!

They just needed to hold off Lin Bai and wait for reinforcements to arrive.

The Lin Zhai in the dead of night was dark and gloomy, even careful steps in the corridor seemed to echo ominously.

A warrior darted through the corridor, treading lightly.

Suddenly, a man and a woman appeared in front of him.

"Who’s there!"

The warrior broke out in a cold sweat, looking at the man and woman who appeared suddenly in front of him, utterly terrified.

They appeared as suddenly as ghosts.

The warrior stared at the corridor in terror, his eyes trembling.

The corridor was about a hundred meters long, and he could see the end at a glance.

When he had entered, he had carefully surveyed the area, confirming that there was not a soul in sight before stepping in.

But as soon as he appeared, the man and the woman materialized before him like specters, truly startling him.

Who were this man and woman?

It was none other than Lin Bai and Bai Xiaoxiao.

Lin Bai asked in a cold voice, "Who are you?"

Looking at Lin Bai and Bai Xiaoxiao, the warrior was filled with shock. How is that possible! I just made sure that there was no sign of life in this corridor before I stepped in. How could they appear out of nowhere? Are they ghosts?

The warrior looked at Lin Bai and said coldly, "So you are Lin Bai?"

Lin Bai nodded.

The warrior sneered, "Hmm, Liu Ben and Young Master Liu Hai are waiting for you in hell, and I am here to send you over!"

"Heaven must be blind, it’s unbelievable that such a big cake has fallen into my hands."

"Die!"

"Mad Dragon Fist!"

The warrior let out a wicked laugh, his form flashing forth like lightning as he unleashed a terrifying fist strike. Wrapping around the force capable of destroying heavens and earth, it immediately charged towards Lin Bai!

Lin Bai was expressionless, a flash of sword aura in his eyes!

Whoosh——

A bright sword light streaked through the corridor.

With a splash of crimson, blood splattered everywhere!

The warrior charging at Lin Bai covered his throat, continually staggering back, his eyes full of terror as he looked at Lin Bai, saying in disbelief, "Your sword, how can it be so fast..."

Crash!

His voice fell silent as he crumpled to the ground, lifeless.

Originally, the warrior intended to kill Lin Bai and Bai Xiaoxiao alone and take all the credit.

But he never would have imagined that Lin Bai was so strong!

In a blink, Lin Bai easily cut him down under his sword.

Looking at the warrior who had collapsed on the ground lifeless, Lin Bai said flatly, "So it seems this is indeed the work of the Liu Family."

Bai Xiaoxiao asked, "Has our location been exposed? But Tianding City is so vast, how did the Liu Family find us?"

Lin Bai replied with a shake of his head, "I don’t know, but that is no longer important. The key is that they have already come for us."

Bai Xiaoxiao said, "What should we do now? Should we leave this place temporarily to avoid the Liu Family’s sharp edge?"

Lin Bai pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "Since it is a trouble I have invited, I will face it!"

"Besides, since the sign on the door says Lin Zhai, this place is my home!"

"My home, Lin Bai’s home, may not compare to the imperial palace, but it still isn’t a place where anyone can come and go as they please!"

A sharp edge had appeared in Lin Bai’s words, and his eyes flashed with killing intent.

Then, Lin Bai looked at Bai Xiaoxiao and said, "What’s important is that after so much difficulty in finding a place to settle down, I no longer want you to suffer with me through hardships or lead a life on the run with me."
