"I didn't expect that I had just returned to the Demon Palace. I thought I could rest for two days, but now I have to start running around again."
Lin Bai, wearing a moon-white robe, stood on the bow of Yunzhou, looking at the magnificent mountain scenery ahead.
Dressed in a robe as white as snow, with a slightly melancholy expression on his face that had completely faded away from youthfulness, Lin Bai looked like a weathered young rich man at this moment.
Daozi Yuyou was still wearing a long black gauze dress, with deep eyes and a serious smile, standing calmly on the right side of Lin Bai.
Mr. Wen was dressed like an old servant of the family, wearing an ordinary black robe, and his wrinkled face was filled with a naive smile.
Daozi Yuyou whispered: "The First Son of God and Elder He Gongji have just returned to the Demon Palace, but they show no signs of going out."
"If we leave now, will they do something behind our back?"
This is something that Daozi Yuyou is more worried about.
In the competition between the Eastern Region and the Northern Region's geniuses, the First Son of God disappointingly lost the competition, and his original popularity and prestige in the Nine Nether Demon Palace was greatly reduced.
At this moment, the first thing he needs to do when he returns to the Nine Nether Demon Palace is to win back people's hearts.
But at this moment, Lin Bai suddenly wanted to go out again.
If Lin Bai stayed in the Demon Palace, defeated the warriors from the Northern Territory, and gained the glory of the competition between geniuses, he would surely be able to unite a group of people loyal to him in the Demon Palace.
Lin Bai shook his head and said with a smile: "A force like the Demon Palace that has been passed down for hundreds of thousands of years generally has a big drawback!"
Daozi Yu You and Mr. Wen paused when they heard this, and then both looked at Lin Bai, waiting for Lin Bai's subsequent answer.
Lin Bai continued: "The inheritance has been passed down for too long, which has resulted in the various forces within the sect being intertwined and extremely complicated."
"Just like the current Demon Palace."
"Some people support the First Son of God, and some people support me."
"Although the people we support are different, most of them hold the same idea, that is, we hope that after one of us becomes the person in power, we can bring them enough benefits!"
When he was still in Jiuyou City, Lin Bai had not yet joined the Jiuyou Demon Palace. Yao Daogu and Zhao Fengxia rushed to the doctor as if they were ill and wanted to support Lin Bai to the throne of the emperor.
He also created a theory of "reincarnation of the Holy Lord", making it easier for Lin Bai's identity to be recognized by the warriors of the Nine Nether Demon Palace.
In fact, it was precisely because of the saying of "the reincarnation of the Holy Lord" that many Jiuyou Demon Palace warriors had high hopes for Lin Bai and felt a sense of belonging.
Perhaps they valued Lin Bai's potential, but Lin Bai believed that they did not want to see the First Son of God become the Son of the Emperor and the future leader of the Demon Palace.
That's why after they discovered Lin Bai, they worked so hard to support Lin Bai as the emperor's son.
As for how much benefit Lin Bai's becoming the emperor's son would bring to them, they have not thought much about it for the time being, but it is at least better than the first son of God becoming the person in power.
Of course, behind this there is naturally the mysterious Lord of the Demon Palace who is pushing and acquiescing, otherwise Yao Daogu and Zhao Fengxia would not dare to act so wantonly.
Lin Bai said to Daozi Yuyou: "So, whether I am in the Demon Palace or not, He Gongji and Yao Daogu will naturally be at odds!"
"As for the First Son of God, there is nothing to fear."
"After I deal with the matter in the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm, if he still wants to provoke me regardless of life and death, then I don't mind getting rid of him directly!"
After the competition between the geniuses from the Eastern Region and the Northern Region, Lin Bai saw the true strength of many warriors.
Among them is the First Son of God.
Judging from the situation in the martial arts competition, although the strength of the First Son of God is good, it has not yet reached the level of Xiao Junfeng and Lin Bai.
Lin Bai already had a plan in his heart. If the opportunity was right, it would not be impossible to get rid of the First Son of God.
But definitely not now.
If Lin Bai fights with the First Son of God now, it will inevitably cause turmoil within the Demon Palace, which is not suitable for the current strategy of the Demon Palace.
"Instead of worrying about the Demon Palace, it's better to worry more about how to deal with the Seven Nights Divine Sect, Fantian Sect, and Worshiping Heaven Sect!"
"I'm so troubled by this!"
Lin Bai found a chair and sat casually on the bedside, placing his hand on his forehead and rubbing his eyebrows.
Daozi Yuyou brought a cup of tea and said calmly:
"Qiye Shen Sect, Fantian Sect, and Tianbai Sect all have some friendship with Senior Brother Dizi, so it shouldn't be difficult to handle it."
Lin Bai did not answer, but Mr. Wen said:
"Haha, isn't it difficult?"
"That's the hardest thing."
"Although the emperor has a close relationship with Yi Gu, the leader of the Seven Nights Divine Sect, Meng Qinxian, the saint son of the Fantian Sect, and Nie Shang, the saint son of the Baitian Sect, after all, this is related to the vital interests of each major sect."
"These friendships can only provide an opportunity for communication and negotiation, and it is difficult to influence their choices."
Lin Bai nodded, quite agreeing with Mr. Wen's statement.
"Forget it for now, let's go to Baima City first."
Lin Bai ordered Mr. Wen to control Yunzhou and head towards Baima City.
After the Qiye Shenzong was destroyed, the fire warriors who escaped took root in Baima City.
Lin Bai planned to go to Baima City first to meet the senior officials of Qiye Shen Sect, and then go to Fantian Sect and Baitian Sect.
After all, when he met with the Seven Nights Divine Sect, Lin Bai reached a preliminary agreement with Yi Gu and his sisters, and this trip was to implement these things.
…
Since Lin Bai, Mr. Wen and others' Yunzhou had concealed its whereabouts along the way to avoid being discovered by the Demon Slayer Alliance, it took a lot of time to arrive at Baima City.
Baima City was originally located at the border between Chunyang Sect and Phoenix Valley, a relatively awkward boundary.
Originally this place was a sparsely populated border town, but as the Seven Nights Divine Sect took root here, there were more and more warriors, and it gradually developed into an important border city.
Lin Bai, Mr. Wen, and Daozi Yuyou did not enter Baima City with great fanfare, but pretended to be ordinary warriors and walked into the market in Baima City.
"Robbery! Robbery!!"
"Killing! Killing!"
Just after walking out of Baima City, Lin Bai, Mr. Wen and others immediately heard bursts of shouting coming from the noisy market.
And a smell of blood filled the air. They turned to look at the dark alley not far away, where several men in black quickly killed a young man and took away all his belongings.
But the warriors around him just glanced at it, lost their curiosity, and left quickly as if nothing had happened.
But soon, some warriors wearing the uniforms of the Seven Nights Divine Sect came to the alley to investigate the situation and closely investigated the surrounding criminals.
After Lin Bai glanced at it, he also withdrew his gaze.
Mr. Wen said: "The Seven Nights Divine Sect fled here. Although there are many warriors to maintain order, more and more warriors are pouring into Baima City, causing a mixture of fish and dragons, making it difficult to manage."
Lin Bai added: "Especially since the Seven Nights Divine Sect has just experienced a great defeat, the people's hearts are weakening, and it is not conducive to management."
"Forget it, never mind."
"Go to the city lord's mansion to meet Yi Gu."
After walking through the noisy and crowded streets of Baima City, Lin Bai, Mr. Wen, Dao Zi Yuyou and others came to the cleaner, tidier and extravagant streets of Baima City.
This place is the city lord's palace of Baima City.
Most of the senior management and core personnel of the Seven Nights Sect live in this neighborhood.
Daozi Yuyou came to the city lord's mansion, glanced at the closed city lord's mansion, and said:
"Shall I knock on the door?"
"No need."
Lin Bai and Mr. Wen shook their heads almost at the same time, and both raised their heads to look at the sky.
"Someone already knows we're coming."
As soon as Lin Bai's voice fell, he saw a rickety figure appear out of thin air in the sky above the City Lord's Mansion.
The figure was relatively short, with a stooped back and a strong aura of death all over his body, like a dying man.
"Haha, my friend, it's been hard coming all the way. Come and have a drink at the bar."
He smiled and looked at Lin Bai and the other three people in front of the City Lord's Mansion.
"That's exactly what I meant!"
Lin Bai smiled and agreed.
