Chen Yule was defeated with one sword, and Yi Song and Huang Qingyun were so frightened that they could not recover in a short time.
Both Yi Song and Huang Qingyun could tell who Chen Yule was.
As the saint sons of the five families and seven sects in the Chu Kingdom, Yi Song and Chen Yule frequently fought against each other, and Yi Song knew Chen Yule's strength well.
Even if he is not considered to be the top genius in the Eastern Region of the Demon World, there are not a handful of people in the Chu Kingdom who want to defeat him, but none at all.
Before they could react, Lin Bai had already disappeared into the horizon with his sword.
…
Early the next morning, the battle on the Baoyue River in Sangzhou immediately swept across the Chu Kingdom.
The news was like a wildfire, instantly shocking the Chu country’s spiritual practice community.
In the streets and alleys of every major city, everyone was talking about the battle at Baoyue River.
"Have you heard about it? There was a big battle on the banks of the Baoyue River last night. The saints of the Chen family, the saints of the Holy Lotus Palace, and the saints of the Tianxian Sect were all present."
"I heard about it. When I got up today, the whole Chu Kingdom was spreading the news. Even the deaf heard it."
"What happened?"
"This brother doesn't know yet? Just last night, by the Baoyue River in Sangzhou, something happened between Chen Yule, the saint of the Chen family, Huang Qingyun, the saint of the Holy Lotus Palace, Yi Song, the saint of the Tianxian Sect, and three powerful men of unknown origin.
An earth-shattering battle."
"In that battle, that mysterious swordsman defeated Chen Yule and others with one person's power. His strength was extremely terrifying."
"It is said that Chen Yule was in his hands and could not resist even a single sword!"
"Really or not? Chen Yule is the most outstanding genius of the Chen family, and he is extremely accomplished in swordsmanship. How can someone defeat him with one sword?"
"..."
On the second floor of the restaurant, many diners were talking about it.
But no one noticed that a man in white was sitting calmly by the window on the second floor, with a black crow standing on his shoulder.
"Now you are famous. Defeating Chen Yule with one sword will make you famous in Chu country."
Crow said to Lin Bai with a smile.
"Hey, it's not a good thing to be famous for something." Lin Bai sighed.
Crow curled his lips and said: "What are you pretending to be? There are countless people in the entire Chu country's cultivation world who want to become famous in one battle and become famous all over the world, but you are famous, and you are not happy?"
Lin Bai said: "The two brothers and sisters, the saint son of the Chen family, the saint daughter of the Holy Lotus Palace, and the saint son of the Tianxian Sect all know that the Underworld Demonic Bones are in my hands. If I become too famous, they will find me sooner or later."
Crow nodded and said, "Then what are you going to do?"
Lin Bai smiled and said: "Now we are on the cusp of the storm, so I will hide for a while and talk about it."
"Let's go to the imperial capital for a walk."
After paying for the drinks, Lin Bai left the city and stepped onto the teleportation array to go to the imperial capital.
The Imperial Capital of Chu State was the place where Lin Bai and Leng Xingguang agreed to meet.
Lin Bai planned to hide in the imperial capital for a while and wait until Leng Xingguang came to visit Chu State before leaving Chu State.
…
Chu State, Chen family.
"Ahhhhh!"
In a quiet small courtyard, a burst of sword intent suddenly erupted. In an instant, the sword intent swept across and the courtyard was reduced to ashes.
Several old men in noble robes in the distance looked unbearable when they saw this scene.
"This incident has dealt a huge blow to him. I hope he can bear it. Otherwise, he will suffer inner demons and it will be extremely detrimental to his future practice." An elder of the Chen family sighed and shook his head.
Another elder asked: "Who is the person who defeated Yu Le?"
The elder replied: "I just went to the dark world to inquire about the news. The origin of this person is a mystery. It is said that he came from the territory of Qitian Sect."
"And it is worth mentioning that... when he came to the territory of Chu State, he came with His Highness King Chen."
The elder was stunned and frowned: "So...he is from His Highness Prince Chen?"
The elder sighed: "His Royal Highness King Chen was recalled to Beijing and brought back such a peerless genius. I am afraid that His Highness King Chen will not be that simple."
"Since he is a member of King Chen, he is the opponent of our Chen family. Send an order to find this person and determine his origin. If he is unfavorable to us, he will be killed immediately."
News came from the top brass of the Chen family that they were secretly looking for Lin Bai.
…
A few days later.
In an unknown mountain range in Chu State.
The brother and sister knelt down on one knee with guilty faces on their faces. In front of them stood a stone tablet. The surface of the tablet was as smooth as a mirror, reflecting a cold and heartless face.
"Not only did you two fail to bring back the Demonic Bones of the Underworld, but you also exposed the Demonic Palace's plans. Damn it!"
The old man in the mirror of the stone tablet shouted sternly.
The brother and sister were so frightened that they trembled and hurriedly begged for mercy: "Elder, please calm down and give us another chance. This time we will definitely be able to bring back the Underworld Demonic Bones."
The old man snorted, remained silent for a while, and said: "I have summoned Mr. Bai Yue from the territory of Qitian Sect to help you. Don't let me down again."
"Follow orders."
The brother and sister bowed respectfully.
The stone tablet was restored to its original state, and the brother and sister slowly stood up as if they had been granted amnesty.
"Damn it! That damn swordsman made us lose face in the Demon Palace. I have to skin him and cramp him." The man shouted sternly.
The woman frowned and said, "The Demon Palace doesn't quite believe us anymore, and it actually wants to bring Bai Yue over."
The man said coldly: "Hmph, Bai Yue doesn't necessarily have much power. He is not restricted everywhere within the territory of Qitian Sect."
"Sister, don't pay attention to Bai Yue. As long as we take back the Underworld Demon Bones before Bai Yue comes to Chu Kingdom, we can naturally restore our position in the Demon Palace."
The woman asked: "But brother, the territory of Chu State is vast, and the sword cultivator disappeared into the sea of people, where should we go to find him?"
The man was stunned: "Go to the dark world and let the dark world find his traces."
…
For a time, countless warriors poured into the dark world and began to search for the origin of the mysterious sword cultivator.
But at this moment, Lin Bai had disappeared into the vast sea of people and secretly headed to the imperial capital.
Lin Bai stepped onto the teleportation array and left Sangzhou. After several teleportations, Lin Bai arrived outside the imperial capital.
After walking out of the teleportation array, I immediately heard: "The warriors who have arrived in the imperial capital for the first time, please come to the Deacon Hall to register and explain your intention of coming and how many days you will stay."
Lin Bai followed the crowd and walked forward to the Deacon Hall outside the teleportation array.
"Where did you come from? What are you doing in the Imperial Capital?"
In the deacon hall, an old man wrote with a writing brush.
"I came from Ziwei City to see the scenery of the imperial capital of the Chu Kingdom. There is no place to live yet."
Lin Bai responded truthfully.
The pass token in his hand was given by Ziwei City.
So Lin Bai could only say that he was from Ziwei City.
After registering in detail, the old man returned the pass to Lin Bai and said: "Remember, it is strictly forbidden to cause trouble in the Imperial Capital. If you do something without permission in the Imperial Capital, once discovered by the Zhaoxing Division, you will not be spared."
