The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 2856 - 2831: Return to the East Continent!
When the Imperial Clan’s Spirit Boat ascended into the air, appearing parallel to Yejian Zun’s position.
Yejian Zun coldly said, "Emperor Lou Nan, are you also here to intervene?"
Emperor Lou Nan replied, "Lin Bai’s identity cannot be underestimated. He is the Saint of the East Continent. If he dies on the land of the North State, it may trigger a great battle between the East Continent and the North State!"
"I cannot stand by and watch the people of the North State suffer a bloody price for the death of Yejian Jun or for your anger, Yejian Zun!"
Emperor Lou Nan’s meaning was straightforward. You want to kill Lin Bai, you can wait until he leaves North State and then attack him, why do it within the Lounan Dynasty’s territory?
"If Yejian Zun insists on acting single-handedly, then the Lounan Royal Family can only join with the Ed Clan to challenge the skills of the Ye Clan," Emperor Lou Nan stated firmly.
Yejian Zun looked at Edsword Lord, then at Emperor Lou Nan, his expression solemn.
Standing on the ruins of Mu Mountain, Lin Bai noticed Yejian Zun’s face turning iron green and immediately laughed, "It seems Yejian Zun cannot keep Lin Mou in the North State today."
"If that’s the case, Lin Mou will take his leave!"
"No need to see me off!"
Lin Bai sheathed his sharp sword, glanced at Yejian Jun’s corpse, then turned and flew away, finding Lin Ye at the mountain foot.
The two slowly departed under the angry gaze of Yejian Zun.
Lin Bai left, not wanting to be involved in the confrontation between these three significant figures and not knowing when it would end.
However, Lin Bai later heard that Yejian Zun, Edsword Lord, and Emperor Lou Nan truly confronted each other for a day and a night before finally leaving their separate ways!
...
Lin Bai left Mu Mountain, flying through the air with Lin Ye.
On the way, Lin Bai’s expression remained cold.
"I always felt something was off!"
"When I was about to kill Yejian Jun, I sensed some fluctuation in Yejian Jun’s aura..."
"But why?"
"He was clearly his true self. Why did I have that feeling!"
Flying through the air, Lin Bai murmured to himself.
After pondering for a while without finding an answer, Lin Bai shook his head, looked ahead and said, "Now that I’ve obtained the Water Mirror Sword, it’s time to return to the East Continent!"
"Let’s go!"
Lin Bai’s figure blurred, heading straight towards the East Continent.
As Lin Bai flew ten thousand miles ahead, he suddenly saw an old and a young figure standing on top of a mountain, smiling at him from the cloud top.
Lin Bai stopped and landed on the mountain, cupping his fists as he laughed, "Uncle Fu Qingshuang!"
Waiting for Lin Bai on the mountain were indeed Fu Qingshuang and Hu Xiner.
At Mu Mountain, seeing Lin Bai leave, Fu Qingshuang brought Hu Xiner and followed him without revealing their presence.
After all, Fu Qingshuang’s current identity on the Barbaric Ancient Continent was exceptionally sensitive, with the Central Holy Nation watching them daily.
"Did you get it?"
Fu Qingshuang asked.
Lin Bai nodded slightly, "Yes, I’ve obtained the Water Mirror Sword, now I just need to return to the East Continent!"
Earlier at the East Continent, Lin Bai had parted ways with Hu Xiner, who went to find Fu Qingshuang because Lan Ling told Lin Bai that Fu Qingshuang was a disciple of the Sword God Family!
Originally, Lan Ling wanted Lin Bai to find Fu Qingshuang and obtain the Water Mirror Sword more easily with his help, but Lin Bai couldn’t wait that long.
So, Lin Bai and Hu Xiner divided their efforts.
Hu Xiner went to find Fu Qingshuang.
While Lin Bai first headed to the North State.
When Hu Xiner found Fu Qingshuang, they hurried to the North State, arriving at the Sword God Family, only to find Lin Bai had already obtained the Water Mirror Sword.
Thus, Fu Qingshuang clearly understood the purpose of Lin Bai’s journey to the North State.
Fu Qingshuang nodded slightly and said, "You have great courage to kill the Ye Clan’s first Tianjiao, Yejian Jun, right in front of Yejian Zun!"
Lin Bai chuckled lightly, "Why wouldn’t I dare? He is my enemy. Even if Yejian Zun backs him, even if a Divine Spirit stood behind him, I would kill him without hesitation!"
Fu Qingshuang was surprised and asked, "He’s your enemy?"
Lin Bai asserted, "A blood sea of hatred!"
Seeing the coldness on Lin Bai’s face, Fu Qingshuang could tell that if Lin Bai did not have a significant grudge against Yejian Jun, he wouldn’t have risked killing him in front of Yejian Zun.
"Whatever, Yejian Jun is dead now."
"We should hurry and leave the North State!"
"Otherwise, once Yejian Zun regains his composure, he might send assassins after you!"
"Let’s go! Leave North State first!"
Fu Qingshuang’s eyes flashed, leading Lin Bai and Hu Xiner eastward, towards the East Continent.
...
Days later, the trio arrived at the border between the North State and the East Continent.
Fu Qingshuang said, "Should we rest before entering the East Continent?"
Lin Bai said, "Uncle Fu Qingshuang, I originally asked Hu Xiner to find you so you could help me obtain the Water Mirror Sword in the North State, but now the sword is in hand!"
"If Uncle Fu Qingshuang needs to attend to other matters, you don’t have to accompany me to the East Continent!"
Lin Bai said.
Fu Qingshuang shook his head and said, "Right now, the most important thing is to ensure your safety!"
Lin Bai gave a wry smile, "I don’t seem to need protection! Haha!"
Fu Qingshuang said with a wry smile, "Indeed, with your current prowess, you can even kill a Wending Realm expert, do you still need my protection?"
"But I don’t have much to do in the North State anyway, so I might as well accompany you to the East Continent. I need to look for Lan Ling."
Fu Qingshuang said, his eyes flashing.
"Alright, let’s go then. No need to rest, let’s enter the East Continent directly!" Lin Bai, with fervor, didn’t want to stop and rest, and directly proceeded into the East Continent with Fu Qingshuang and Hu Xiner.
The East Continent, which had undergone a bloody battle with the Demon Sect half a year ago, suffered heavy losses.
Especially some major areas, which were ravaged, and life was devastated.
Nine of the Ten Great Dynasties were wiped out.
Six of the Nine Great Domains were destroyed.
Now, after half a year of reconstruction, the power structure of the East Continent seems to be changing.
The current East Continent no longer has Ten Great Dynasties or Nine Great Domains.
Only three Sword Domains remain, namely Jianghai Region, Soul-breaking Area, and Sword Domain.
As for Phoenix Song Area, although not completely annihilated, it suffered significant damage, and the loss of warriors in the territory was severe, leaving it impossible to restore to its peak for a hundred years.
Gradually, Phoenix Song Area’s strength couldn’t keep up with the three preserved Great Regions.
Moreover, the East Continent no longer has Ten Great Dynasties, but only two Dynasties.
One dynasty is the Great Witch Dynasty.
Originally, the East Continent Academy decided to put the battlefield in Jianghai Region, urgently gathering all the strong ones from the East Continent into Jianghai Region. These strong ones wanted to avenge their families and sects, so they came to Jianghai Region.
Consequently, the Great Witch Dynasty absorbed a large number of homeless strong ones, quickly fortifying its power!
And the other dynasty is...
