With one sword strike, Lin Bai didn't care whether he could shake Zhang Zun, he turned around and ran away with his sword.
Zhang Zun's cultivation was at the Taoist level, and it was unfathomable. If Lin Bai continued to fight with him for a long time, he would definitely be asking for trouble.
Even if Lin Bai used Devouring Sword Soul, he might not be able to kill Zhang Zun.
Zhang Zun's strength is probably still higher than Fang Yunhe's in Yunhe Town.
The moment Lin Bai walked away with his sword, he suddenly saw the water of the Xianshi River next to him burst open, flying into the sky, and crashing into him as if it had turned into a dragon.
Lin Bai's pupils exploded and he hurriedly activated the Tai Chi Liang Yi Sword Formation to protect his body. However, he was still knocked out by this powerful force and fell into the forest in a state of embarrassment, vomiting blood.
"Damn it!"
Lin Bai roared low and turned over, only to find that Zhang Zun was already in front of him. He raised his hand and hit Lin Bai right in the face.
At this moment, Lin Bai almost didn't have time to think about it before he immediately mobilized the Devouring Sword Soul in his body and planned to fight.
But at this critical moment, from the horizon in the night, a divine light penetrated the night, hit Zhang Zun's arm and knocked him out!
Zhang Zun retreated a thousand meters and stood on the top of an old tree. He looked towards the sky with cold eyebrows and his face became gloomy: "Xiao Ji, do you have to go against my Hongqiu City?"
"Haha, Mr. Zhang Zun is joking. I have no intention of becoming an enemy of Hongqiu City. It's just that Qingluo and I have an old relationship. I can't say anything today without saving my life." In the night, a handsome young man seemed to appear from the stars.
He walked out with a smile on his lips, soft eyes, and a free and easy temperament in every move he made.
This person is Xiao Ji, the contemporary head of the Xiao family in Boyue Bay!
In a matter of three or two steps, Xiao Ji walked from the horizon to Lin Bai. He lowered his head and glanced at Lin Bai, his smile unchanged.
Zhang Zun sneered and said: "Xiao Ji, you went to the Eternal Demon Sect to practice when you were young. It was not until your father passed away five years ago that you returned from the Eternal Demon Sect and became the head of the Xiao family. You have been practicing for a hundred years now, but
In fact, you only stayed in Lianzhou for five years."
"In the past five years, most of you have been practicing hard in Boyue Bay. How can you know Qingluo, let alone have an old relationship with Qingluo."
Xiao Ji chuckled lightly and stood with his hands behind his hands: "Master Zhang Zun, you just said that when I was young, I was accepted as a disciple by the Eternal Demon Sect, and Qingluo, like me, was also accepted by the Eternal Demon Sect.
Although he has not yet gone to the Eternal Demon Sect, he and I already have the status of brothers."
"How can I just watch you insult my disciples of the Eternal Demon Sect?"
"Haha, Mr. Zhang Zun, in other words... Who gave you Hongqiu City such courage to set up an ambush and assassinate my disciples of the Eternal Demon Sect? What's more, they dared to launch a lawless pursuit of the disciples of the Eternal Demon Sect on the land of Lianzhou.
Killing Order, I don’t think even the Zhulong Sect is so bold!”
Xiao Ji's few words made Zhang Zun's heart tremble and his face turned ugly.
The four words "Eternal Demon Sect" are like thunder in the land of Lianzhou.
Even if the Zhulong Sect meets a disciple of the Eternal Demon Sect, they must be polite.
Zhang Zun was startled by Xiao Ji's words and pretended to be calm: "There are countless disciples who are favored by the Eternal Demon Sect every year and every month. Besides, Qingluo has not gone to the Eternal Demon Sect yet, so he is not considered a member of the Eternal Demon Sect.
Disciple, even if he goes, he will not be able to pass the assessment of the Eternal Demon Sect and will not be able to become a disciple of the Eternal Demon Sect!"
"Even if we kill him now, who would dare to say no?"
"Xiao Ji, don't use the Eternal Demon Sect to suppress me, I'm not afraid."
Xiao Ji smiled and nodded: "Master Zhang Zun is right, Qing Luo has indeed not gone to the Eternal Demon Sect, and he may not be able to pass the assessment if he does. But, Master Zhang, do you know... In the Eternal Demon Sect,
It is divided into thirteen factions, also called the Thirteen Alliances!"
Zhang Zun frowned and was puzzled. Although he had cultivation at the level of a Taoist, he had never left the land of Lianzhou in his life. He had only heard rumors about the Eternal Demon Sect, but he knew very little about the disciples of the Eternal Demon Sect.
"It seems that Mr. Zhang Zun is not clear about it, so I will introduce it to you!" Emperor Xiao smiled softly: "The cultivation level in the demon world is more cruel than anywhere else. Although the Eternal Demon Sect is the most cruel among the thirteen eternal states,
A powerful sect, but the practice within the Eternal Demon Sect is also extremely ruthless!"
"In order to ensure that everyone can successfully gain a foothold in the Eternal Demon Sect, all warriors from the Eternal Thirteen States have formed an alliance."
"For example, our Lianzhou warriors have a 'Lianzhou Alliance' within the Eternal Demon Sect, and the warriors in it are all from Lianzhou."
"Qing Luo is going to the Eternal Demon Sect. Regardless of whether he can pass the assessment or not, he will be a member of the Lianzhou Alliance of the Eternal Demon Sect!"
"When we joined the Lianzhou League, we promised that we would do our best to protect the members of the League in the future!"
"So, I am here today, and I will guarantee Qingluo's life!"
Xiao Jifeng smiled lightly, but there was a firm look in his smile, as if a big mountain stood in front of Zhang Zun, unshakable!
Lin Bai stood up from the ground, as if he could see that Xiao Ji would definitely protect him today, and he felt a little more relieved.
Zhang Zun rolled his eyes and stared at Xiao Ji with a gloomy expression. He knew that Xiao Ji's cultivation was unfathomable, and even if he tried his best, he might not be able to defeat Xiao Ji in a short time, so he said: "I will do this.
It was reported to the Du family in Hongqiu City that Young Master Xiao Ji wanted to protect him, but I wonder if Young Master Xiao Ji can still protect him after the strong men from Hongqiu City arrive."
"Farewell!"
After saying that, Zhang Zun bowed his hands, turned around and disappeared into the night, and left.
Xiao Ji smiled disdainfully and shook his head slightly.
Lin Bai came up with a pale face, clasped his fists and said, "Thank you very much, brother, for saving your life. I am deeply grateful!"
Xiao Ji glanced at Lin Bai with a sideways eyebrow and said with a smile: "No need to be polite. I said that I saved you entirely for the sake of the Lianzhou Alliance. If you go to the Eternal Demon Sect, you will also join the Lianzhou Alliance.
When the time comes when you see Lianzhou warriors being humiliated, I hope you won’t stand idly by!”
"Seeing that you are exhausted, let's go and take a rest in Boyue Bay."
"As long as I'm here, no one in Boyue Bay dares to touch you, but when you step out of Boyue Bay, I can't guarantee it."
Hearing Xiao Ji's invitation, Lin Bai immediately weighed the pros and cons in his mind, and finally agreed, saying, "I still have two friends, can you allow me to find them?"
Xiao Ji nodded and agreed, and together with Lin Bai found Zhou Xi and Sun Yao on the edge of the Xianshi River. After explaining Xiao Ji's origin, he and Xiao Ji returned to Boyue Bay again.
The reason why Lin Bai agreed to Xiao Ji's invitation was entirely a decision made after careful consideration.
First, Xiao Jinai is a disciple of the Eternal Demon Sect. Lin Bai can learn some things about the Eternal Demon Sect from him. After all, Lin Bai still needs a place to practice in the demon world. The Eternal Demon Sect seems to be a good place for Lin Bai now.
choose.
Second, since Xiao Ji dared to rescue him from Zhang Zun, at least Lin Bai was not in danger when he was around Xiao Ji.
Third, it would be too difficult for Lin Bai to retrieve the demon sword and storage bag. If Xiao Ji was willing to help, it might be more beneficial to Lin Bai.
