The Unparalleled Sword Emperor Chapter 2893 - 2868: Are You Forcing Me? (5 Updates)

But at this moment, Gu Lianxing and the others were entangled by that group of death-defying Chu Family’s Army and simply could not go after Lin Bai.

And those three hundred Wending Realm Strong Ones were also entangled by a hundred thousand Imperial Guard and could only watch helplessly as Lin Bai and the others escaped from the Imperial Palace.

The Giant God Avatar moved extremely fast; in just a few steps, it strode out of the Imperial Palace of the Great Witch Dynasty.

"Stop them, don’t let them get away!" The Great Witch Emperor roared hoarsely, his voice torn.

But when he looked around the field, he was dumbfounded; all the Wending Realm Strong Ones were tied down and unable to break free.

The Great Witch Emperor’s expression changed; he looked at Gu Daozhi and said, "Elder Gu Daozhi, are you still going to sit by and do nothing at this moment? This Demon Slaying Conference was held by our Great Witch Dynasty and the East Continent Academy, and it has ended in such a state. Is Elder Gu Daozhi not afraid of being laughed at?"

"I know Elder Gu Daozhi still remembers your old ties with Lin Bai, but now Lin Bai is about to take that demoness away. Is Elder Gu Daozhi still not going to act?"

Gu Daozhi could only open his eyes helplessly once he heard this, and once more looked toward the battlefield, especially when he saw that Giant God Avatar breaking out of the Imperial Palace.

He said not a word, stepped out once, and his figure shot into the air.

Simultaneously, the Great Witch Emperor looked again at several others and said, "Senior Zhang Yushan of the Sky Area, do you still remember that when I met you, you once said you would assist us!"

"Now, please make a move and bring Lin Bai and that demoness back!"

Zhang Yushan of the Sky Area said with a faint smile, "Since even the Great Witch Emperor has opened his mouth, this Old man will make a trip then!"

The Great Witch Emperor continued, "Senior Su Cheng of the Everlasting Night City, Senior Songyun He of God Ghost Impassable Mountain, Senior Li Fu of the Kunxu Li Clan, for the sake of the many years of friendship between the Great Witch Dynasty and you all, please do not stand by and watch!"

"After all, you are also Warriors of the East Continent!"

"The Demon Sect wreaks havoc in the East Continent; all Warriors of the East Continent should do their utmost!"

The Great Witch Emperor spoke earnestly and fervently.

Li Fu said, "That is only Nature; besides, Lin Bai still has some grudges with Kunxu that must be settled!"

Su Cheng laughed and said, "All right then, it’s rare that I came out this time, so I’ll take the chance to stretch my muscles and bones!"

Songyun He laughed and said, "Even if the Great Witch Emperor said nothing, this Old man still could not tolerate that demoness escaping!"

As they spoke, the Ancestors of the Four Hidden World Families all swept out one after another, charging in the direction where the Giant God Avatar had fled.

...

On top of the Giant God Avatar, Lin Bai, taking Lin Ye and the Demon Body, came to the Avatar’s shoulder.

"Everyone!"

Lin Bai looked at the people on the Giant God Avatar, his eyes filled with self-blame.

Yin Jiuling, the Pale Old Strange Man, Ning, the Half-human Giant Beast, the Four Heavenly Disabled Brothers, Feng Wenjun, Shi Jiamu, Hu Qi, Fang Yiyun, Wu Ming, Changsun Yun, Shu Xiang, Meng Li!

Their figures would henceforth forever remain in Lin Bai’s heart.

Fang Yiyun said calmly, "Lin Bai, don’t blame yourself; this was our own choice!"

Ning laughed and said, "That’s right. Back when we found you locked up in the Eighteen Levels of Hell and learned of your relationship with Ye Suxin, we had already made our choice!"

"Either stand by and watch, or step in!"

"No one forced us; it was all of our own free will!"

Gratitude surfaced in Lin Bai’s eyes; he cupped his fists solemnly and said, "I’m sorry, everyone, for dragging you down with me!"

Lin Bai truly did not know what he ought to say to them at this moment.

Thank them? It seemed that a simple word of thanks from Lin Bai could not express the depth of his gratitude toward them.

Be angry? They had acted of their own will; Lin Bai could hardly blame them.

In Lin Bai’s heart, his only self-blame was that after this battle, they would no longer be Disciples of the East Continent Academy, and now that they had helped Lin Bai rescue Ye Suxin, they had further enraged the Warriors of the East Continent.

In the days to come, they would likely not even be able to remain in the East Continent!

"Eat meat, eat meat..."

Just then, the Half-human Giant Beast suddenly let out a vicious roar.

Everyone looked over in confusion.

The Pale Old Strange Man said with a Solemn expression, "The Barbarian says... he feels danger approaching. We must not let our guard down; now is probably not the time to celebrate!"

Rumble—

Right then, in the instant everyone’s faces turned Solemn.

In midair, the clouds shattered with a loud crash, and an Old man, expressionless, walked out from within the clouds.

Lin Bai turned his head; seeing this person, it was actually Gu Daozhi!

"Lin Bai, you will not leave today!" Gu Daozhi said coldly. "I cannot look on and do nothing while you take the demoness away!"

Standing atop the Giant God Avatar, Lin Bai looked at Gu Daozhi and said with a smile, "Elder Gu Daozhi, I know you harbor hatred toward me in your heart, but I still must thank you for defending me before the Great Witch Emperor half a year ago!"

Gu Daozhi roared, "You are the Saint of the East Continent! You are the Saint of my East Continent Academy! How could I not defend you?"

"Even though you killed The Genius of the Gu Family!"

"Even though you spoke rudely of the Ancient Clan!"

"But you were then the Saint of the East Continent, and I was an Elder of the Order Divine Court of the East Continent Academy. How could I stand by and watch them bully the Saint of my East Continent Academy!"

"Even if you acted recklessly Inside the East Continent Academy, it was still, after all, a Family matter of my East Continent Academy!"

"But the moment you step out of the East Continent Academy, you are the Saint of the East Continent Academy, bearing the supreme authority of the East Continent Academy. Whoever provokes you is equivalent to provoking the East Continent Academy!"

"As an Elder of the Order Divine Court, I will never tolerate anyone provoking the East Continent Academy!"

Gu Daozhi said coldly.

Lin Bai smiled bitterly and nodded.

Gu Daozhi now shook his head in grief and sorrow. "Lin Bai, you have disappointed me too much!"

Lin Bai raised his head to look at Gu Daozhi and said, "What if I must take her away today?"

Gu Daozhi shook his head slightly and said, "Don’t force me... to kill you!"

"Then please, Elder Gu Daozhi, make your move!" Lin Bai drew the Demonic Sword, looking coldly at Gu Daozhi as he spoke.

"You insist on forcing me?" Gu Daozhi roared. A boundless power erupted forth; in the instant this power burst out, heaven and earth shook, and the sun and moon lost their light.

This power was actually infinitely close to the Taoist Realm!

Gu Daozhi threw a punch that landed on the Giant God Avatar; with a thunderous boom, the Giant God Avatar was knocked to the ground by him.

At this moment, the Pale Old Strange Man said coldly, "Lin Bai, he is a Near-Dao Realm Strong One; we are not his match!"

"Near-Dao Realm!" Lin Bai was deeply shocked by the power of Gu Daozhi’s punch.

Immediately, Lin Bai moved his thoughts and said earnestly to the Pale Old Strange Man and the others, "Everyone, thank you for lending a hand; you have already done too much for me. Leave what comes next to me, all right?"

"I cannot drag you down to die with me!"

"If I, Lin Bai, by some stroke of luck do not die today, when I return someday, I will surely share wine and talk freely with you all!"

"If I, Lin Bai, do not die today, then if you ever need me in the future, no matter to the Ends of the Earth, at a single word, I, Lin Bai, will surely travel 10,000 miles to come to your aid!"

As he spoke, Lin Bai picked up Ye Suxin, stepped onto the Flying Swords, and shot toward the horizon.

In the instant Lin Bai left, the Giant God Avatar received Lin Bai’s order, scrambled up with all its might, and, taking Yin Jiuling and the Pale Old Strange Man and the others, rushed off in a direction opposite to Lin Bai’s.

In midair, Gu Daozhi watched Lin Bai and the Giant God Avatar depart separately, and with almost no hesitation, he did not go to kill the Giant God Avatar, but instead went after Lin Bai!

"Lin Bai! Do not stray too far from the Eternal Life Tablet. If you go 10,000 miles away from the Eternal Life Tablet, the power of the Eternal Life Tablet will vanish from your body!"

The Pale Old Strange Man let out a shrill roar.

But at this moment, Lin Bai’s figure had already disappeared at the edge of the sky.
