The Unparalleled Sword Emperor-Chapter 2558 - 2533: Better to Kill Innocent Than Let Guilty Escape! (5 Updates)
Li Zhengyi said coldly, "I have already said, Lin Bai is not Lin Duo’s son! Can I, as Su Bai’s brother, not recognize her son?"
"Do you think I wouldn’t recognize my own nephew?"
"We are... connected by blood!"
Li Zhengyi said coldly.
Mo Wenshen shook his head and said, "Li Zhengyi, since you insist on arguing and refuse to admit, I have no choice!"
"However, I still have suspicions about Lin Bai!"
"I want to take him back to the Central Holy Nation!"
"You’ve ordered that he is not allowed to leave Kunxu!" 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚
Li Zhengyi shook his head and said, "I have already promised Lin Bai that he can leave Kunxu, and I will not go back on my word!"
Mo Wenshen said coldly, "I knew you would say that!"
After speaking, Mo Wenshen no longer paid attention to Li Zhengyi and walked straight out of the Great Hall.
Watching Mo Wenshen’s departing figure, Li Zhengyi shouted coldly, "Mo Wenshen, what are you doing!"
Mo Wenshen stood at the entrance of the Great Hall, not turning back, coldly said to Li Zhengyi, "Since you are unwilling to take hold of Lin Bai, then I will do it myself!"
"Since you don’t let me handle Kunxu’s matters, then you shouldn’t meddle in mine either!"
"Moreover, you cannot interfere in my affairs!"
"Li Zhengyi, I warn you again, if you dare to intervene in my matters with Lin Bai, or if you dare to tip him off... hmph, you cannot withstand the wrath of the Central Holy Nation!"
"If you dare to interfere, the great disaster of Kunxu from over twenty years ago will happen again!"
Mo Wenshen took a step out and disappeared within the Great Hall.
After Mo Wenshen left, Li Zhengyi’s eyes were filled with fury, glaring viciously at Mo Wenshen’s back.
At this moment, a relentless killing intent arose within the Great Hall, condensation to form crystals of ice!
...
Mo Wenshen walked out of the Great Hall and directly left the Li Family’s territory.
When Mo Wenshen reappeared, he had already arrived at the peak of a Lonely Mountain outside the Li Family’s territory.
Standing on the Lonely Mountain, he looked expressionless into the distance.
During the deep of night, seven powerful ones swiftly flew over from all directions of this Lonely Mountain!
Among these seven were five old men and two old women!
Though they were extremely old, they emitted powerful energy fluctuations from their bodies.
All these seven were actually strong ones at the Wending Realm!
Within the seven, one slightly younger old man stood tall, donned in a blood robe, with a surge of Sword Intention shooting to the sky, from afar the smell of blood on him could be sensed!
This blood-robed old man, if any Warrior from the Broken Sword Tribe was here, would be startled, as this man was none other than the High Priest of the Broken Sword Tribe!
Another old man, with a slight smile in his eyes, his eyeballs rolling constantly showing a sly nature, was actually the Great Priest of the Heavenly Saber Tribe!
If any Warrior of Kunxu were here, they would be astounded.
Because these seven arriving at the Lonely Mountain were all famed High Priests of tribes within Kunxu!
Mo Wenshen looked at these seven and shouted, "Heavenly Saber Great Priest, Broken Sword High Priest, Cloudy Jade High Priest, Unreturning Sea High Priest, Dongyi High Priest, Wolf King High Priest..."
"And Head of Golden Silver Mountain!"
"Thank you all for coming to assist!"
Mo Wenshen said with a fist salute.
Heavenly Saber Great Priest chuckled, "No need for courtesy, Mo Wenshen Envoy, being a Central Holy Nation envoy, we naturally have to assist your summons!"
Cloudy Jade High Priest and Head of Golden Silver Mountain, both elderly ladies.
At this moment, Cloudy Jade High Priest asked, "Mo Wenshen Envoy, you and Lord of Kunxu Li Zhengyi have been long-time friends. If you need manpower, Li Zhengyi should support you wholeheartedly. Why did you come to us?"
Upon hearing this question, Mo Wenshen said coldly, "I sought you because of Li Zhengyi!"
"I called you here to check the Li Family!"
"If the Li Family wants to intervene in my matters, then I need some manpower!"
"If the Li Family doesn’t interfere, that would be best!"
"Be assured, as long as you help me with this favor, I will report your kindness to the Central Holy Nation. Then, if you all wish to return to the Spirit Realm, perhaps the Central Holy Nation could assist!"
"After all, as you know, the Central Holy Nation has some connections in the Spirit Realm!"
Mo Wenshen said coolly.
Upon hearing Mo Wenshen’s words, the seven were instantly ecstatic.
At this time, the Broken Sword High Priest asked coldly, "Thank you for the benevolence of the Central Holy Nation, but may I ask who does Mo Wenshen Envoy intend to deal with?"
"Are you planning to kill Li Zhengyi?"
Mo Wenshen shook his head and said, "It’s not Li Zhengyi, he’s not even a disciple of Kunxu, just an ordinary Warrior of the Death Reversal Realm Triple Layer!"
The Unreturning Sea High Priest laughed, "Is a mere Warrior of the Death Reversal Realm Triple Layer worthy of us eight Peak Wending Realm Warriors taking action?"
Mo Wenshen said coldly, "I have said, my asking you here is to check the Li Family. If the Li Family doesn’t intervene, capturing that Warrior is a piece of cake!"
"But if the Li Family intervenes, I am helpless."
Broken Sword High Priest asked, "Mo Wenshen Envoy still hasn’t said who to deal with?"
Mo Wenshen said, "The Saint of the East Continent Academy! Lin Bai!"
Upon hearing this name, the other tribe High Priests were somewhat familiar, as Lin Bai’s fame within Kunxu is still extremely loud.
Especially after the battle with the Heavenly Saber Tribe and the incident at the Bone Withering Secret Realm had spread, Lin Bai’s fame shook all of Kunxu.
Among these seven, the ones most profoundly affected by Lin Bai are naturally the High Priest of the Broken Sword Tribe and the Great Priest of the Heavenly Saber Tribe.
Lin Bai, before the Heavenly Saber Tribe, fought fiercely against heroes, causing the Heavenly Saber Tribe to lose face. The Heavenly Saber Great Priest naturally bore deep resentment for Lin Bai.
As for the Broken Sword Tribe, Lin Bai killed many Strong Ones of the Black Sword Hall of the Broken Sword Tribe in succession, leaving the Broken Sword High Priest with a vivid memory, deeply hating Lin Bai.
When the Heavenly Saber Great Priest and Broken Sword High Priest heard Mo Wenshen intended to deal with Lin Bai, a hint of ruthlessness flashed across both their faces, longing to tear Lin Bai limb from limb!
As for the other tribe High Priests, they didn’t care who Mo Wenshen intended to deal with. They cared about the rewards from the Central Holy Nation after helping Mo Wenshen.
Broken Sword High Priest asked, "When shall we set out?"
Mo Wenshen looked up at the Bright Moon in the sky about to set, then smiled, "It’s almost dawn, let’s go, follow me to the Li Family!"
"This time, don’t let him leave the Li Family easily!"
"Better to kill wrongly than let escape!"
Mo Wenshen’s eyes glinted with fierce coldness.
As Li Zhengyi said, Mo Wenshen has no evidence proving Lin Bai is Lin Duo’s son, relying solely on a vague suspicion.
Yet this is Mo Wenshen’s frightful side, renowned as a ruthless character in East Continent back in the day.
Even if uncertain whether Lin Bai is Lin Duo’s son, he still adheres to a "better to kill wrongly than let escape" mentality, aiming to capture Lin Bai!
A bloody tempest is already unfolding, Mo Wenshen along with seven Peak Wending Realm Strong Ones stepped into Kunxu Li Family.
Meanwhile, Libu Zheng and Lin Bai left Lin Bai’s place in the side residence, heading to Li Family Village, preparing to return to the East Continent...
