Chapter 849: Chapter 847: Gu Yueqing Riding the Dragon’s Eye Flying Sword! [Fifth Update]

Lin Bai and Grandpa He stood atop the ruins, casually chatting for a few moments.

Lin Bai laughed with a sense of guilt, "Grandpa He, I’m really sorry, it seems like the battle just now has destroyed all of the He Family’s property!"

Grandpa He chuckled bitterly, "What’s that compared to life? It’s all inconsequential as long as we’re still alive!"

"Yes, indeed, we’re still alive!"

Lin Bai smiled lightly.

"Well, if that’s the case, with the matters of Elixir King City settled, the He Family just needs to wait for the experts from on the Miracle Ridge to come down and investigate the traces of the Five Poison Sect."

"Although I am a disciple of the Swordsmanship Courtyard of the Miracle Ridge, I acted without the Ridge’s permission, which is a bit against the rules as I took action within Elixir King City," Lin Bai lamented.

"The rules of the Miracle Ridge state that the Ridge’s warriors must not arbitrarily intervene in the disputes of Lingdong!"

"The sudden arrival of the Five Poison Sect today left me with no choice."

Lin Bai bowed with his hands clasped toward Grandpa He, "Now that the matters here are resolved, I shall take my leave."

Grandpa He said, "Friend Lin Bai, be at ease, once the experts from the Miracle Ridge arrive, I will naturally explain everything to them. They won’t hold you accountable for your transgressions."

"If you should ever descend the mountain for experience, please come visit Elixir King City. This old man has yet to properly share a pot of wine with you."

Grandpa He said cheerfully.

"Definitely, definitely."

"Then Grandpa He, I bid you farewell."

Lin Bai smiled faintly, the Feng Lei Divine Wings unfolded behind him, and with his body soaring swiftly into the sky, he disappeared on the horizon.

This was when He Yunfei approached, watching Lin Bai’s departure, and said reflectively, "Truly worthy of being a disciple of the Sword Art Academy of the Miracle Ridge, his actions are extraordinary!"

"He is like an Immortal, appearing suddenly to save my father and the He Family."

"And then, after saving us, soared into the sky and vanished without any desire for reward or return," He Yunfei commented with a laugh.

Grandpa He remarked, "Unfettered, elegant, free-spirited, unconventional, and untamed. It seems the Sword Art Academy really did recruit a fine disciple!"

"It seems that in the upcoming Nine Institute Martial Arts Tournament and the Heroes List competition, the Sword Art Academy is set to take the lead!" Grandpa He said with a big grin.

...

Lin Bai left Elixir King City and headed straight for the Manghuang Mountain Range, ten thousand miles away.

Gu Yueqing leaned weakly against the stone wall of the peak, clutching Lin Bai’s Dragon’s Eye Flying Sword tightly in her hand.

At that moment,

The Dragon’s Eye Flying Sword started trembling violently, as a surge of sword might erupted forth.

Gu Yueqing, having rested for a long while and somewhat recovered, still spoke with great weakness, "What’s going on? Dragon’s Eye Sword..."

Buzz buzz—

The Dragon’s Eye Flying Sword emitted a warning hum.

Gu Yueqing immediately took on a serious expression.

Such behavior from the Dragon’s Eye Flying Sword indicated that a thread of danger was lurking nearby.

Suddenly, at that moment,

The Dragon’s Eye Flying Sword flew out of Gu Yueqing’s hands and struck a clump of weeds ten meters away with force.

Gu Yueqing’s expression changed as she quickly turned to look, catching sight of the Dragon’s Eye Flying Sword slicing a venomous snake hidden in the weeds into two halves.

After killing the venomous snake, the Dragon’s Eye Flying Sword slowly rose from the ground and returned to the hands of Gu Yueqing, lying there quietly without any more strange sounds.

Gu Yueqing’s large eyes looked at the Dragon’s Eye Flying Sword in amazement and laughed, "You possess such spirit to autonomously protect me?"

"I’m lucky to have you. Otherwise, given my current state, if that venomous snake had struck, it would have surely killed me."

Gu Yueqing smiled gently.

"Thank you, Dragon’s Eye Sword."

Gu Yueqing held the Dragon’s Eye Flying Sword, her smile as innocent as a child’s.

"I wonder how Brother Lin is doing?"

That’s when Gu Yueqing remembered Lin Bai: "Dragon’s Eye Sword, do you think Brother Lin’s combat strength might be reduced without you? Those warriors from the Five Poison Sect are not easy to deal with."

"What if Brother Lin gets injured?"

"No, I must go find him!"

Gu Yueqing stood up stubbornly and gazed into the distance.

It was then that she realized, Lin Bai had left her at the peak of this summit, surrounded by cliffs and precipices, impossible to navigate on foot – one could only leave by flying!

"How am I going to get down there?"

Gu Yueqing stood at the edge of the cliff, looking down. The cliff was about ten thousand meters high, and falling would undoubtedly mean no bones would be left unbroken.

"Dragon’s Eye Sword, can you take me to find your master?"

Gu Yueqing asked the Dragon’s Eye Sword.

Humming——

Upon being addressed by Gu Yueqing, the Dragon’s Eye Flying Sword vibrated intensely. Suddenly, it flew out of Gu Yueqing’s hand, circling her up and down a few times.

Then, it landed in front of Gu Yueqing, transforming into a giant sword three meters in length.

"Do you mean for me to stand on it?"

Gu Yueqing carefully stepped onto the flying sword.

A force emerged within the flying sword, fixing Gu Yueqing’s foot in place.

Whoosh——

In an instant, the flying sword shot into the sky and headed straight for Elixir King City.

Gu Yueqing was instantly dumbfounded.

She had never imagined that the flying sword’s speed could be so fast. In the blink of an eye, she was already 10,000 miles away.

"Such incredible speed."

Gu Yueqing stood on the flying sword, roaming the heavens and the earth. A faint smile also appeared on her pale face.

At this moment, Lin Bai flew out from Elixir King City and happened to see the Dragon’s Eye Flying Sword coming from afar.

"Hm?"

"Didn’t I ask the flying sword to protect Gu Yueqing? Why did it come out by itself?"

"Could it be that Gu Yueqing is in trouble?"

Lin Bai felt a slight panic in his heart; Gu Yueqing had done a great favor for Lin Bai.

Gu Yueqing had injured herself in the process of helping Lin Bai with alchemy. If she was in trouble now, Lin Bai would certainly feel remorseful.

Lin Bai saw the Dragon’s Eye Flying Sword approaching from a distance, his eyes squinting.

Suddenly, Lin Bai saw a woman standing on the flying sword, riding it as she roamed!

"How is this possible!"

"Why would the flying sword obey Gu Yueqing’s command and take her on a journey?"

Lin Bai looked incredulously at Gu Yueqing on the flying sword, his eyes widening.

The flying sword was Lin Bai’s personal possession, only heeding the will of Lin Bai alone. Even though Lin Bai had told the flying sword to protect Gu Yueqing, it would only act in a protective capacity, and it certainly would not heed the command of anyone other than Lin Bai.

But it seemed like Gu Yueqing was an exception.

The flying sword seemed to have a good impression of her by nature.

Swish——

The Dragon’s Eye Flying Sword arrived in an instant, stopping in front of Lin Bai.

Gu Yueqing, still on the flying sword, was utterly stunned; the speed of the flying sword had clearly shocked her.

"Brother Lin!"

Upon seeing Lin Bai, Gu Yueqing immediately yelled out in delight.

Lin Bai said with a slight smile, "Seeing you so lively and kicking, I’m relieved."

Gu Yueqing smiled and said, "Brother Lin, how are things going in Elixir King City?"

Lin Bai replied, "I’ve taken down Zhang Pengyi and Bao Xuanming, and I’ve also fended off the disciples of the Five Poison Sect. From now on, it’s up to the experts of the Miracle Ridge to handle things."

Gu Yueqing stared at Lin Bai with wide eyes, exclaiming, "Brother Lin, are you sure you haven’t misspoken? You killed Zhang Pengyi and Bao Xuanming!"

"They are both warriors of the Human Elixir Realm Third Layer!"

Gu Yueqing asked somewhat incredulously.

"It was just luck,"

Lin Bai said with a slight smile, neither confirming nor denying, and cheerfully added, "Let’s go. The affairs of Elixir King City are settled; let’s head back to the Miracle Ridge. I’ll teach you how to refine the Human Emperor Elixir!"

Fifth update delivered!

I’ve finally caught up, leaving Emperor Sword breathless from the effort.

I see many friends discussing in the book reviews, which sparked an idea for Emperor Sword.

Should Emperor Sword create a readers group?
