Sword Emperor of the Astonishing Sky

It was March, the sun was shining brightly and everything was charming.

The Hidden Sword Thatched Cottage takes on a new look, with high mountains and dense forests, and hundreds of birds chirping.

Zhou Xi, Liu Jiangxue, and Liu Anan stood at the entrance of the Hidden Sword Thatched Cottage, eagerly waiting for Lin Bai's return.

It is no secret that the sect went to Lezhou to annihilate the Paradise Sect.

The news that Lin Bai secretly released the wife of the leader of the Paradise Sect also spread like wildfire in the Thirteen Eternal States.

Zhou Xi and Liu Jiangxue knew very well that today would be Lin Bai's most difficult test.

Freeing a sinner privately is not a small crime in the face of today's iron laws of the Eternal Demon Sect.

At dusk, Lin Bai returned with his sword, and Zhou Xi hurriedly stepped forward to greet him: "I'm so lucky to have my master return safely."

Liu Jiangxue and Liu Anan walked over and said worriedly: "Sir, the sect didn't make things difficult for you, right?"

Lin Bai smiled freely and said: "Although it is not too much of a punishment, I still need to think about Yasi for half a year. Half a year later, I will go with the sect team to Xie Yue Sect to attend the Xie Yue Banquet, and I will also attend the Xie Yue Banquet. Only by achieving the highest ranking can I offset my merits and demerits, otherwise, I will be punished for several crimes and I will not be able to escape!"

"Ah!" Zhou Xi and Liu Jiangxue were so frightened that their faces turned pale and their bodies were shaky.

Although the sect did not punish Lin Bai severely this time, both Zhou Xi and Liu Jiangxue could tell that the reason for not punishing Lin Bai was because the sect wanted Lin Bai to win the first place at the Evil Moon Banquet for the Eternal Demon Sect.

But with Lin Bai's current level of cultivation as a Taoist god, what would happen even if he participated in the Xie Yue Banquet?

Lin Bai will face powerful men at the peak of the Taoist realm from major families and sects in Xie Yue Qianzhou, and they are all at the level of peerless geniuses.

It is extremely difficult to stand out from a group of sect geniuses who are like wolves and tigers.

If it were applied to ordinary people, both Zhou Xi and Liu Jiangxue felt that this was impossible.

"My master's cultivation level is not high. If you participate in the Xie Yue Banquet, you will be fighting against a warrior at the peak of the Taoist realm."

"If that's the case, how can Master stand out?"

"The sect seems to be lenient with the master's mistakes, but in fact it has hidden evil intentions. If after half a year, the master's power allows the sect to get what he wants, I'm afraid that will be the day of the master's death."

Zhou Xi was worried and spoke earnestly.

Lin Bai smiled: "But there's still half a year left, so why rush!"

"Besides, it takes half a year to travel from the Eternal Demon Sect to Xie Yue Qianzhou, which means we still have a year."

"One year is enough time for people to do a lot of things."

Lin Bai didn't take it seriously about the Eternal Demon Sect's hidden sword.

Even if he couldn't stand out from Xie Yue's banquet, Lin Bai had his own means of escape, and the Eternal Demon Sect couldn't do anything to him.

"On the contrary, it's you. I'm quite worried about you."

"If I leave, the Hidden Sword Thatched Cottage will have no owner."

"You and the other three are lonely and helpless, and their cultivation is not high. I'm afraid they will be bullied by many powerful people in the sect."

Lin Bai had the Heaven-Swallowing Dao Fruit in his body, and his cultivation was progressing rapidly.

On the other hand, Zhou Xi, Liu Jiangxue, and Liu Anan, although Lin Bai has helped a lot overtly and covertly over the years, their progress in cultivation has been extremely slow.

Zhou Xi's cultivation was barely stable at the first-level Taoist realm, while Liu Jiangxue and Liu An'an had just entered the Taoist realm.

Lin Bai had always been arrogant and unruly, and he acted vigorously and resolutely in the Eternal Demon Sect, offending many strong men. Although the great enemy Hengzhou Alliance was eliminated, there were still many warriors who were dissatisfied with Lin Bai.

Especially there is a poisonous snake "Mr. Lu".

Ever since the Eternal Trial, Lin Bai has been waiting for Mr. Lu to take action.

Even going to Lezhou this time was to lure Mr. Lu into taking action to solve this problem.

By coincidence, Jiang Xuansu suddenly wanted to follow Lin Bai to Lezhou. Perhaps because of Jiang Xuansu's presence, Mr. Lu did not take action.

Perhaps there were other reasons, perhaps because Mr. Lu felt that Lin Bai had become such a popular figure in the sect that he did not dare to take action easily.

But Lin Bai has always been unsure whether Mr. Lu has put aside the grudges in the Bone Dojo in the past and given up revenge under Lin Bai's ascendant position.

What Lin Bai hated the most was people like Mr. Lu.

They are venomous snakes that hide well and wait until you let down your guard to deliver the fatal blow.

Lin Bai preferred to deal with those reckless men. Their emotions and sorrows were revealed on their faces, and they faced each other with swords without saying a word. Although it was inevitable that they would fight to the death, fortunately, they were happy in their hearts.

The uncertainty about Mr. Lu has always been a hidden danger in Lin Bai's heart.

…

The sect ordered Lin Bai to go to Siguo Cliff within three days. After returning to Hidden Sword Cottage, Lin Bai thought about it and felt that he should make arrangements in advance.

That night, Lin Bai called Zhou Xi, Liu Jiangxue, and Liu Anan to sit down in the pavilion.

The water of Wangyuetan Lake is sparkling, and the moonlight is rippling.

Lin Bai sat cross-legged in the court, looked at the three people, and whispered: "My ambition in this life is not in the Eternal Demon Sect, nor in the Eternal Thirteen States. Now that my cultivation has exceeded the realm of Taoism, it is time to leave. The Eternal Demon Sect and the Eternal Thirteen States should find another way."

"I have made up my mind. After Xie Yue's banquet, regardless of whether I win a ranking for the Eternal Demon Sect, I will leave the Eternal Thirteen States."

"Back then, I wore white clothes and a long sword and traveled around the world. Although I didn't have a fixed place, I didn't have any worries."

"Now, I have three of you again in the Eternal Demon Sect Hidden Sword Thatched Cottage. I am leaving, so I naturally have to make arrangements for you!"

Lin Bai turned to look at the moon pool, staring at the spiritual fish that emerged from time to time in the lake to swallow the moonlight. There was reminiscence in his eyes, as if he was remembering the past.

"Back then, I was seriously injured and came to the Demon Realm. I was rescued by sisters Liu Jiangxue and Liu An'an. They fished me out of the cold river and placed me in an ancient temple on a barren mountain."

"Then Zhou Xi helped me and carried me out of the mountains and forests, allowing me to see the ancient and prosperous age of the devil world."

"You, like Sun Yao, are very kind to me!"

"I am about to leave today. The road ahead is dangerous and confusing. I don't even know where I am going, let alone taking you with me on the journey."

Lin Bai took a deep breath and said, "I have been thinking about it all day today and decided to find a way out for you."

"I have sent word to Senior Sister Qin Yuyan that she will be here tomorrow."

"I intend to let you enter Qin Pavilion for training!"

"Zhou Xi is an experienced person and is very good at mediating and communicating with others. Qin Ge will definitely let you show off your talents."

"The two sisters Liu Jiangxue and Liu An'an are attached to the name of Qin Pavilion, but in fact they are still disciples of the sect. They just need to practice hard."

"Do you have any other opinions on my arrangements?"

Tears appeared in the eyes of the three people, and their faces were bitter.

Zhou Xi cupped his hands and said, "I am willing to follow my master through thousands of mountains and rivers, thousands of difficulties and dangers, and I will never say anything about the hardships."

Liu Jiangxue held Liu Anan's hand tightly, tears falling from her eyes: "My two sisters are lucky to be saved by the young master, and we are willing to be slaves and servants by the young master's side, serving him day and night."

"I am a wandering cloud and a crane, so I need someone to serve me day and night." Lin Bai smiled bitterly: "I am walking on a very dangerous road. If I am not careful, I will be in catastrophe. It will be inconvenient to take you with me on the journey."

"I've made up my mind, let's make this arrangement!"
