The Unparalleled Sword Emperor-Chapter 2412 - 2389: A Group of Old Monsters!

Today is the fifteenth day as mentioned by the Old Wine Ghost!

And according to him, Kunxu will open today!

Before dawn, Lin Bai returned to the Old Wine Ghost’s house, carrying nine wild rabbits he’d hunted from the mountain.

At this time, the Old Wine Ghost was surprisingly not asleep, but was sitting on the door frame, watching Lin Bai!

"You haven’t shown up for three days, I thought you’d run off with Widow Li!" The Old Wine Ghost laughed as he looked at Lin Bai. Seeing him return, he seemed quite happy and took a sip from his wine jug!

Lin Bai hadn’t yet opened his mouth to speak!

The Old Wine Ghost continued, "But unfortunately, news came from Kunxu that it won’t open today. If you want to enter Kunxu, you’ll have to wait until next month!"

Lin Bai ignored the Old Wine Ghost and, after dealing with the wild rabbits in the yard and began to preserve them, he said lightly, "Widow Li said you’re lying to me, there’s no Kunxu here at all!"

Hearing this, the Old Wine Ghost was suddenly flustered and said, "Nonsense, Widow Li is talking nonsense!"

Lin Bai shook his head and said, "I’ve brought you nine wild rabbits. Sorry, I’ve scoured the surrounding mountains and only found these nine. Make them last, otherwise, once they’re gone, you’ll go hungry again!"

"Accompanying you for a month, although I haven’t found Kunxu, I’ve gained a lot. Consider this a small token of gratitude!"

"I’m leaving!"

After preserving the wild rabbits, Lin Bai prepared to leave the house!

The Old Wine Ghost looked at the well-prepared, preserved wild rabbits done by Lin Bai and asked, "Do you really want to go to Kunxu? I know for warriors like you, Kunxu’s resources for cultivation are indeed enticing!"

Lin Bai paused slightly and said, "You’ll never know how much effort and strength I’ve put in, how many hardships and dangers I’ve endured, to come this far!"

"Today I’ve come, and no one can stop me anymore!"

"Take care of yourself, and stop drinking!"

Lin Bai said expressionlessly, taking advantage of the night, before dawn, he left Li Family Village.

"He has come a long, hard way, he’s bound to hate evil like an enemy!" The Old Wine Ghost watched Lin Bai’s departing figure with a slight smile and said.

At this time, Widow Li, dressed in coarse cloth, walked into the Old Wine Ghost’s yard and smiled, "Indeed, his Daoist heart is incredibly steadfast. Whether he goes to Kunxu for gratitude or revenge, he will remain unwavering!"

Simultaneously, the villagers of Li Family Village appeared one by one before the Old Wine Ghost.

"This man’s nature is cold, if he goes to Kunxu, it might not be a good thing!"

"But he is, after all, the Holy Son of the Dongzhou Academy and has the token of Kunxu, which gives him the right to enter Kunxu!"

Lin Bai had met most of these villagers, including the hunters and Aunt Li who washed clothes.

The Old Wine Ghost’s eyes flashed as he said, "Alright, let Libu Zheng come to pick him up! Since he’s the Holy Son of the Dongzhou Academy, Kunxu can’t neglect its etiquette. According to the rules, the Kunxu Saint should come out to receive him!"

"Inform Libu Zheng!"

Widow Li and the others nodded slightly!

Then, the people in the village left one after another, going back to their usual busy routines!

The Old Wine Ghost, hugging his wine jug, smiled and said, "The gourd of the Primordial Demon Ancestor, how is it in his hands!"

"I’ve tried everything this month to make him hand it over, but he wouldn’t bring it out!"

"But it seems he doesn’t know how to use the mysteries of this gourd!"

"Indeed, Yuanzu and Yuan Mo aren’t originally from this world, so that gourd is naturally extraordinary!"

"Let him slowly figure it out!"

The Old Wine Ghost, hugging the wine gourd, said with a smile.

...

By the time Lin Bai left Li Family Village, the sky had completely brightened!

At the village entrance, Lin Bai found a man and a woman standing and looking at him.

Lin Bai looked up and saw the two!

The man, in his middle age, wore a black robe, and his face was distinctively angular, especially his eyes, exuding endless sword intention. This man was a true peerless sword cultivator!

Beside this middle-aged man was a woman, beautiful and alluring!

The woman, Lin Bai recognized, it was Hu Xiner!

"Hu Xiner? Why are you in the Qingtian Region?" Lin Bai frowned and walked over.

Hu Xiner, seeing Lin Bai, also showed a hint of joy on her face.

At this moment, Lin Bai set his gaze on the middle-aged man beside Hu Xiner.

"You walked out of Li Family Village?" The man in black said coldly.

Lin Bai curiously asked, "Who are you?"

The man in black didn’t reply immediately, but stepped forward, grabbed Lin Bai’s hand, and said, "No nonsense, let’s go!"

"Now is not the time for you to go to Kunxu!"

The man in black said coldly.

Lin Bai asked in surprise, "Senior, who exactly are you? How did you know I came out of Li Family Village? I’ve never seen you in the village!" 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

The man in black explained, "Li Family Village holds a special magic circle, without someone from Kunxu to guide you, you’ll only wander into the village’s maze. If you have ill intentions, you’ll forever be kept in the village and become one of its villagers!"

"Did you think the villagers in Li Family Village are really ordinary people?"

"Let me tell you, they’re a group of old monsters, each possessing at least the strength of the Wending Realm!"

"They were once those who sought to forcibly enter Kunxu but are now eternal guardians, trapped in that maze from Kunxu!"

"Most of those people are from certain old families above Dongzhou!"

The man in black said coldly.

"The fact you could walk out of Li Family Village implies they deemed you didn’t hold too much malice towards Kunxu, so you could leave!"

"Hu Xiner and I have been standing at the village entrance for a month, watching you enter Li Family Village!"

The black-garbed man said.

Lin Bai said in surprise, "You’ve been at the village entrance for a month, but I went out hunting every day. How come I never saw you?"

The man in black said, "I told you, that maze can only be walked out of on your own!"

"The fact you can see us means you’ve already walked out of Li Family Village!"

"In the village, did you see a widow and an old drunk?"

The man in black asked coldly.

Lin Bai nodded and said, "I saw them!"

The man in black said coldly, "Don’t provoke these two, even if your father comes, these two can’t be provoked!"

"They’ve been trapped here the longest, and their strength is also the most terrifying!"

Lin Bai’s eyes showed a huge surprise, but at this time, he looked at the black-garbed man and asked, "Who exactly are you? Do you know my father? How do you know so much about Kunxu?"

Hearing this, the black-garbed man paused slightly, looked back at Lin Bai, and said coldly, "I am Fu Qingshuang!"
