Liu Anan was frightened. She hid behind her sister and looked at Lin Bai in fear with one eye.
Lin Bai smiled silently, returned to the house, washed and trimmed himself, put on clean and tidy clothes, and then appeared in front of everyone again.
But Liu An'an still didn't let go of her fear and hid behind her sister, her eyes still filled with fear.
Lin Bai suddenly remembered that this little girl seemed to have a strong fear of him after seeing him from Shanzhou.
Zhou Xi's eyes were venomous, and he instantly saw that Lin Bai's cultivation had improved, and he immediately stepped forward with a smile and congratulated him: "Congratulations, master, for your cultivation to a higher level."
Liu Jiangxue also smiled and thanked: "Congratulations, young master."
The two of them were naturally happy from the bottom of their hearts. Lin Bai was the owner of the Hidden Sword Thatched Cottage, and they were all attached to the Hidden Sword Thatched Cottage. The higher Lin Bai's cultivation level, the safer they would be, and the more benefits they would get from practicing in the future.
.
"It's not easy."
Lin Bai showed no signs of joy at the breakthrough in cultivation. He waved his hand and walked to the pavilion to sit down.
"During the time I was in seclusion, nothing happened at Hidden Sword Cottage or Hengzhou."
For half a year, Lin Bai was obsessed with spiritual practice, completely distracted and ignorant of external things.
Zhou Xi hurriedly clasped his fists and said: "Since the destruction of the eight wealthy families in Hengzhou half a year ago, the sect has been hunting down the remnants of the eight wealthy families in the past six months. Seven days ago, the sealing formation was launched and Hengzhou was restarted. Now the Eternal Ten
Calm has returned to the three states."
"Within the Eternal Demon Sect, the Hengzhou Alliance exists in name only. It was instantly reduced from the first sect alliance to the last one, worse than the Lianzhou Alliance."
Lin Bai chuckled and said: "The eight wealthy families in Hengzhou have recalled all the masters from the Eternal Demon Sect back to their families. Now that the eight major families have been destroyed, all the powerful people have fled, and the Hengzhou Alliance has naturally been empty. Now in Hengzhou,
The warriors left behind by the Zhou League are probably members of some weak families in Hengzhou, so there is nothing to fear."
Zhou Xi smiled and said: "After the destruction of the Hengzhou Alliance, it can be considered a good thing for us in Hidden Sword Thatched Cottage. We no longer have to worry about the revenge of the Hengzhou Alliance in the future."
Lin Bai took a deep breath: "I guess my worries have been relieved."
Immediately afterwards, Zhou Xi briefly told Lin Bai about the people who had visited Hidden Sword Cottage in the past six months.
Many warriors whom neither Lin Bai nor Zhou Xi knew came to visit them, and Lin Bai secretly guessed that they might want to establish relationships.
After all, Lin Bai made the greatest contribution in the battle to destroy the eight wealthy families in Hengzhou, and became the most popular and favored son of Heaven within the Eternal Demon Sect.
Everyone understood that if nothing unexpected happened, Lin Bai would definitely have a place among the senior elders of the Eternal Demon Sect in the future.
Come and establish a good relationship in advance now, so that you can sit back and relax in the future and be cared for by Lin Bai.
Lin Bai smiled and ignored these wallflowers and didn't take them seriously.
Then, Zhou Xi said that Jiang Xuansu came very frequently in the past six months, almost coming at sunrise and leaving at dusk. He spent half of the thirty days in the Hidden Sword Cottage every month.
Lin Bai was in seclusion and could not see her, so she did not make any fuss and just stood quietly at Wangyue Lake and looked at the scenery.
In addition to Jiang Xuansu, Qin Yuyan, Li Yumen, Senior Sister Yi Mei and others also came to visit.
"Xiao Ji?" Lin Bai exclaimed, "Senior Brother Xiao Ji has returned to the sect?"
I learned from Zhou Xi that Xiao Ji came to visit once and learned that Lin Bai was in seclusion, so he left a message to Zhou Xi, saying that he must inform him as soon as possible after Lin Bai came out of seclusion.
Lin Bai recalled that when he left Lianzhou, he asked Xiao Ji to find the measuring ruler.
Nowadays, the years have passed by a few years. I wonder if Xiao Ji has gained anything.
At first, Lin Bai was seriously injured and came to the Demon Realm. He drifted in the river for several months. His storage bag was also taken away by the body fishermen. Most of the treasures in it were lost, including the Sand of Eternity, the Stone of Destiny and other necessary tools for refining flying swords.
Prepare materials, as well as his favorite epee measuring ruler.
When he learned that an old friend was visiting, Lin Bai immediately asked Zhou Xi to make arrangements for them to come to the Hidden Sword Cottage for a reunion.
Two days later, Senior Sister Yi Mei of Li Yumen came side by side, followed by Qin Yuyan, then Xiao Ji, and finally Jiang Xuansu arrived.
By the Moon Moon Lake, Lin Bai used his magic method to fish out several Moon Moon Spirit Fish in the lake to entertain his old friends.
Everyone was sitting on the ground in the pavilion, with Liu Jiangxue, Liu An'an, Zhou Xi and others waiting beside them.
When Lin Bai saw Li Yumen and Senior Sister Yi Mei looking inseparable, he immediately smiled and said, "It looks like we will have a wedding banquet soon."
Lin Bai's words attracted many people's attention, and Xiao Ji and Qin Yuyan laughed.
Senior Sister Yi Mei lowered her head in shame. Li Yumen coughed lightly, suppressed the embarrassment, and smiled: "Qingluo, don't make fun of me, you are not the same; but I heard that during your half-year retreat,
, there are people who come to Hidden Sword Cottage to stay for a day every now and then."
Xiao Ji and Qin Yuyan were surprised again and glanced at Jiang Xuansu faintly.
Everyone naturally understood that Li Yumen was talking about Jiang Xuansu.
Jiang Xuansu also knew that Li Yumen was talking about him, so he was not shy and said calmly: "I was just worried that he would become obsessed with practicing Qigong. I happened to have nothing to do, so I just came over to take a look. I had no other thoughts."
Lin Bai smiled and said nothing more.
Everyone saw Jiang Xuansu's face as calm, but in fact Jiang Xuansu's heart was beating fast, and she tried her best to control her expression and maintain her image as a saint.
After passing through all the tribulations, old friends reunited and everyone talked happily.
The spirit fish in Wangyue Lake were extremely delicious. After eating seven of them, everyone still felt that it was not enough. Lin Bai went down and caught five more, giving everyone a feast.
A few people sat down and chatted, and what they talked about the most was the future practice issues and the future situation of the Eternal Thirteen States.
Everyone agreed that after the destruction of the eight wealthy families in Hengzhou, peace would return to the thirteen eternal states within the next thousand years.
Qin Yuyan's eyes suddenly lit up, and she looked at Jiang Xuansu and asked, "By the way, Senior Sister Jiang, what are you going to do with the Xie Yue Sect disciples you captured?"
Lin Bai suddenly remembered that several Xie Yue Sect disciples once came to Hengzhou, but later they seemed to be secretly captured by the Eternal Demon Sect, and they did not know where they were imprisoned.
The purpose of locking up these Xieyue Sect disciples is to prevent them from intervening in the war between the eight wealthy families in Hengzhou and the Eternal Demon Sect.
Because once the Xie Yue Sect intervenes, things will become very troublesome, and it will also be particularly detrimental to the Eternal Demon Sect.
Now that the war is over, what will these Xie Yue Sect disciples do?
Jiang Xuansu said calmly: "What else can we do? Of course we let them go, but do we still dare to kill them?"
The origins of those disciples of the Xie Yue Sect are not simple. Their cultivation at a young age is unpredictable. Either they are the proud sons of the Xie Yue Sect, or they are the disciples or relatives of some high-ranking officials in the Xie Yue Sect.
No matter which one it is, the Eternal Demon Sect cannot afford to offend it.
