The most important question now is... neither Lin Bai nor Chu Guo know who is taking action.
But they already have suspicions.
Is it the Northern Territory? Or is it the Nine Nether Demon Palace? Or is it a joint effort between the two?
But no matter what, they did not kill the ancestors and saints of the top sects rashly, but captured them all alive.
No matter what the reason is, they will definitely ask the Chu State for conditions.
According to Lin Bai's current thinking, if the Chu royal family's information network cannot find out the ins and outs of the matter, then they will have no choice but to wait for them to come to them on their own initiative.
"Do you think...if you were them, after capturing these top saints and ancestors, where would they imprison them?"
Emperor Chu was not very interested in who was behind the scenes. His only concern was the safety of these saints and ancestors.
Because once something happens to these saint sons and ancestors, the entire Eastern Region will be in chaos.
"I have no idea."
"Instead of asking me, Your Majesty, why not ask the people who really know the demon world? After all, I have only been in the demon world for less than ten years."
Lin Bai smiled bitterly.
He did not tell lies. He had not been in the demon world for a long time, and he did not know the many secrets of the demon world.
Emperor Chu was wasting so much time asking him now, so he might as well focus on investigating.
"But you have been in the Demon Realm for less than ten years, and yet you have experienced things that many people have not experienced for thousands of years."
"Perhaps we should ask you, a person who is in the middle of the situation, but also a person who is on the outside. You may have unexpected ideas."
Emperor Chu's expression remained as usual, with no emotion or anger on his face.
Being in the middle of the game, but also being on the outside.
When Lin Bai heard this, his eyes darkened slightly.
Although he is in the Chu Kingdom, which is a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, his heart is not at all in the Chu Kingdom, let alone in the devil world.
That's why Emperor Chu said that he was both in and out of the game.
"If you were a warrior from the Northern Territory, what would you do after you caught these people?"
"I will secretly send them back to the Northern Territory!"
Lin Bai immediately answered Emperor Chu without even thinking about it.
This was not Lin Bai's casual answer, but his true thoughts deep in his heart.
If he is a warrior from the Northern Territory and has captured so many saints and good ancestors in the Eastern Territory of Chu State, and stays in Chu State, Chu State may not be able to discover them in a short period of time, but Zhao Xingsi will find their clues sooner or later.
There wasn't much time left for them, so they had to race against time to leave Chu.
Where will you go after leaving Chu State?
That is of course to return to their own territory, their own territory, and return to the ice and snow they are most familiar with.
In this way, even if the Chu State belatedly discovered their traces, they would already be in the wind and snow. Even if the Chu State's army was unparalleled in the world, they would not dare to run rampant on the northern land.
avoid.
Emperor Chu nodded thoughtfully, not eager to express his attitude, but asked again:
"If you were a warrior from the Nine Nether Demon Palace, if you captured them, where would you put them?"
"I don't know about that." Lin Bai replied truthfully: "Nine Nether Demon Palace has been destroyed for a hundred thousand years, and now there are signs of a comeback. They must have made a comprehensive plan."
"They probably have so many hiding places in the Eastern Region. It's going to be very difficult to find them."
"If even the Zhaoxing Division can't find them, then it's probably going to be even harder for others to find them."
Emperor Chu nodded, thinking that what Lin Bai said was reasonable.
"The emperor knows, you can retreat first."
"I'll take my leave."
Lin Bai couldn't wait to leave this golden palace immediately. Staying here made him feel uncomfortable all over.
This Golden Palace is not only the supreme palace of power in the world, but also the most ruthless place of Shura in the world. It is cold, depressing, frightening and makes people tremble!!
After getting permission from Emperor Chu, Lin Bai left the Golden Palace, and the eunuchs waiting outside the palace saw Lin Bai off from the imperial city.
"Everyone, what do you think of what Lin Bai said?"
After Lin Bai had left for a long time, Emperor Chu asked gloomily.
"It all makes sense."
"I think what Lin Bai said is absolutely right."
"If I were a warrior in the Northern Territory and captured so many top saints, I would immediately send them back to the Northern Territory."
"It's like if we capture a city and capture the prince of the other dynasty, we will immediately send him back to the imperial capital of Chu."
In the darkness of the Golden Palace, many people started chattering.
The Emperor of Chu gathered the news from all parties and sent a gloomy order: "Go down and seal off the eighteen imperial states. Without the jade order, no one is allowed to leave the eighteen imperial states without permission."
"Instruct the Zhaoxing Division and the Forbidden Army to search for all demons and monsters in the eighteen imperial states, especially the families and sects related to the Nine Nether Demon Palace and the warriors of the Northern Territory. Don't let any of them go!"
With one casual word from the Dragon Throne, the entire eighteen imperial states were completely sealed.
"Your Majesty, many of the families and sects who came to celebrate his birthday have not yet left the Eighteen Imperial States."
Someone reminded me in the darkness: "If the eighteen imperial states are sealed off, they will not be able to leave."
Emperor Chu held his forehead and sighed softly: "Since they can't leave, let's let them come back temporarily."
"Send the order and invite the families and warriors who have not left the eighteen imperial states to return to the imperial capital."
Someone asked in the darkness: "Having already sent guests off and invited them back, there must be a suitable reason. Otherwise, inviting them all back abruptly will only make them more suspicious."
"Just say..." Emperor Chu sat on the dragon chair, thinking hard about a suitable reason.
He was stunned for a while. There was really no suitable reason for these families and sects to return to the imperial capital.
suddenly.
He suddenly thought of Lin Bai who had just left, and said with a chuckle: "Lin Bai, just think that Chu State owes you another favor."
He said: "Tell them that Lord Wolf Lord Lin Bai has just decided to get married in the near future. Please invite all the families and sects that have not left the eighteen imperial states to come back to attend Lord Wolf Lord's wedding banquet."
"Uh..." In the darkness, everyone was speechless.
"Then who will Lord Lang marry?"
Someone asked: "Should I marry Miss Shen Xian, the princess of Prince Hongqing's palace? Or marry Chu Tinghan, the princess of Prince Liang's palace?"
Everyone suddenly felt troubled.
Lin Bai and Princess Shenxian were engaged to each other, and everyone in Chu State knew about it.
If the incident between Chu Tinghan and Lin Bai in the hunting world had not occurred, then it would be reasonable to ask Lin Bai and Miss Shen Xian to get married at this moment.
When Emperor Chu heard this question, he immediately slapped his forehead, frowned, and whispered: "Hey... this... I..."
Someone said in the darkness: "Master Langhou is already engaged to Miss Shen Xian, so it is wise to marry her now."
Someone else said: "I'm afraid that as soon as this news spreads, Prince Liang's palace will not be happy. At least Chu Tinghan will definitely make a scene. The imperial capital is already chaotic enough, do we want to make the imperial capital even more chaotic?
?"
"..."
Suddenly, there was endless noise in the darkness.
At this time, a rich voice sounded: "What are you arguing about! It's just an excuse, it's not for them to actually hold a wedding!"
"Your Majesty sent an order for them to return to the imperial capital to attend the wedding banquet of Lord Lang and Miss Shen Xian. There is no need to tell them the exact time. Just say that the exact time is still being discussed!"
"Our purpose is just to bring them back, and that's enough."
The person speaking was obviously Prince Hong, who should have died five thousand years ago.
