The Unparalleled Sword Emperor Chapter 2900 - 2875: Return to Shenwu Kingdom Again!

The Spirit Boat tore through the sky. Lin Bai sat on it while Zhao Yue steered the Spirit Boat toward the Shenwu Kingdom.

And in Lin Bai’s hand, he was holding a Jade Slip at this moment. On it was carved a portrait of Lin Bai, and beside it there was a line of small characters: "Reverse Taoist, Lin Bai, total bounty nine trillion Spirit Liquid!"

"Any Warrior who brings Lin Bai’s head to the headquarters of the Faceless People in the Nameless Region can exchange it for nine trillion Spirit Liquid!"

Lin Bai looked at the Jade Slip in his hand, gently closed it, and took a deep breath.

Half a year ago, the Chaos of the Demon Sect had already made the Warriors of the East Continent hate the Demon Sect to the bone, and now Lin Bai, defying the Under Heaven, rescued the Demon Sect Sect Hierarch, which would inevitably stir up the wrath of the East Continent Warriors.

Among them, the Great Witch Dynasty, the East Continent Academy, the Sky Area, the God Ghost Impassable Mountain, the Everlasting Night City, the Kunxu Li Clan and the other six super powers of the East Continent had jointly issued a kill order.

In addition, other Warriors who hated the Demon Sect also took out heavy bounties.

Only then did Lin Bai’s bounty reach such an immeasurable level!

"Nine trillion Spirit Liquid—your head is getting more and more valuable." Zhao Yue walked up behind Lin Bai, looked at the Jade Slip in his hand, and said with a faint smile, "Even when the Poison God Clan was hunting me back then, the bounty on my head wasn’t as high as yours."

Lin Bai put away the Jade Slip and ignored Zhao Yue, saying indifferently, "How long until we reach the Shenwu Kingdom?"

"Soon. The Dongsheng River is just ahead. Once we cross the Dongsheng River, we’ll be in the territory of the Shenwu Kingdom. You’d better pray that once you arrive in the Shenwu Kingdom, Emperor Xiao won’t cut off your head and send it off for the reward."

Zhao Yue said with a light laugh.

Lin Bai paid no attention at all to Zhao Yue’s teasing. He stood silently on the Spirit Boat, looking into the distance.

He replayed that battle in his mind.

It had been too tragic.

Lin Bai’s cultivation was half-crippled, and even the Demonic Sword that had accompanied him through countless battles had shattered along with it.

Thinking of all this, a sharp pain stirred in Lin Bai’s heart.

Three days later, the Spirit Boat crossed the Dongsheng River and entered the Imperial City of the Shenwu Kingdom.

From the mouths of the Warriors in the Imperial City, Lin Bai learned that Emperor Xiao and Chu Jiangliu had both already returned to the Imperial City.

Lin Bai then took Zhao Yue and went straight toward the Chu Royal Mansion.

If he wanted to see Bai Xiaoxiao, he had to enter the Imperial Palace, and now that Lin Bai had no cultivation, it was far too difficult for him to enter the Imperial Palace. He could only first find Chu Jiangliu, then have Chu Jiangliu take him to see Emperor Xiao.

Arriving at Chu Jiangliu’s Mansion, Zhao Yue directly led Lin Bai as they swept inside and found Chu Jiangliu.

"Who’s there!"

Chu Jiangliu walked out of the room with a cold look. Seeing the two in the courtyard, his expression turned to shock in an instant, and he couldn’t help but cry out, "Sword Prince, are you all right!"

Chu Jiangliu walked to Lin Bai’s side, speaking excitedly.

Lin Bai shook his head slightly and said, "Take me to see Xiaoxiao."

Chu Jiangliu nodded. "All right, I’ll make arrangements at once!"

Half an hour later, Chu Jiangliu’s carriage entered the Imperial Palace.

Inside the Imperial Palace, on the Wind Listening Terrace.

As soon as Chu Jiangliu sent word to Bai Xiaoxiao that Lin Bai had returned to the Shenwu Kingdom, Bai Xiaoxiao immediately had Chu Jiangliu bring Lin Bai into the Imperial Palace and up to the Wind Listening Terrace.

The Wind Listening Terrace was one of the rare scenic spots in the Imperial Palace.

It sat atop a high slope, with a small pavilion upon it. The surroundings were especially quiet and elegant. Standing in the small pavilion, one could take in the entire Imperial City of the Shenwu Kingdom at a glance.

When Lin Bai, Chu Jiangliu, and Zhao Yue arrived below the Wind Listening Terrace and looked up, they saw that on the terrace stood a woman who had been anxiously waiting for a long time.

"Sword Prince, the battle at the Sorcerer Emperor City was something Your Majesty had planned for a long time..." Chu Jiangliu stood at Lin Bai’s side and said in a low voice.

Lin Bai nodded. "I know. When I saw her on the Demon Slaying Platform, I already understood. If she dared to come to the Sorcerer Emperor City, she was bound to have made every preparation!"

Lin Bai walked silently up to the Wind Listening Terrace and came to the small pavilion.

In the pavilion, the moment Bai Xiaoxiao saw Lin Bai, she could no longer hold back the tears in her eyes.

With tears on her face, she hurried toward him, saying nothing at all, and directly threw herself into Lin Bai’s arms, sobbing in anguish, "I thought you were dead...I thought..."

Lin Bai could feel Bai Xiaoxiao trembling in his arms.

Lin Bai gently embraced Bai Xiaoxiao and said with a bitter smile, "Fortunately, this life of mine is hard to snuff out!"

Bai Xiaoxiao steadied her emotions a little and stepped out of Lin Bai’s embrace, but she was already crying like pear blossoms in the rain. She said to Chu Jiangliu, "Prince Chu, go and invite all of them over!"

"Also, for the next ten days, I will not see anyone. No one is allowed to come to the Wind Listening Terrace!"

Chu Jiangliu nodded. "This minister obeys!"

Lin Bai frowned. "Who else is in the Shenwu Kingdom?"

Bai Xiaoxiao said, "Yin Jiuling, Ning, and the others are all recuperating within the Territory of the Shenwu Kingdom!"

Lin Bai nodded slightly and sat in the Wind Listening Terrace, remaining silent.

As for Zhao Yue, she leaned against a pillar, eyes on the Bright Moon on the horizon, with no intention at all of talking to Bai Xiaoxiao.

"Are you Zhao Yue? Or Ye Suxin?"

Bai Xiaoxiao asked coldly.

Hearing Bai Xiaoxiao’s words, Zhao Yue’s red lips curled into her signature wicked smile. She looked at Bai Xiaoxiao in provocation and said, "Emperor Xiao, what do you think?"

Seeing the smile on her face, Bai Xiaoxiao understood at once that this was Zhao Yue, not Ye Suxin.

Bai Xiaoxiao quietly sat down beside Lin Bai, watching Zhao Yue with vigilance.

Not long after, Chu Jiangliu led a group of Warriors into the Imperial Palace and swiftly arrived before the Wind Listening Terrace.

Lin Bai saw that among the group were the Pale Old Strange Man, the Half-human Giant Beast, Ning, Yin Jiuling, Hu Qi, Shi Jiamu, Feng Wenjun, the Four Heavenly Disabled Brothers, Fang Yiyun, Wu Ming, Changsun Yun, Shu Xiang, Meng Li, and Lin Ye.

Even Lin Bai’s Demon Body was among them.

"Lin Bai, are you all right!"

"Lin Bai, how are you?"

Ning and the Pale Old Strange Man rushed over. Seeing the state Lin Bai was in, they asked worriedly.

Lin Bai nodded slightly. "I survived. I won’t die."

Hearing this, everyone finally let out a soft sigh of relief.

Right away, Lin Bai briefly told them what had happened after he and Zhao Yue escaped from the Great Witch Dynasty.

Of course, he also mentioned the shattering of the Demonic Sword and the crippling of his Divine Elixirs.

Bai Xiaoxiao said softly, "Your Divine Elixirs and Dantian have dried up. You’ll need a large amount of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects to restore their Spiritual nature. That isn’t difficult—the Creation Divine Palace has Spiritual Objects beyond counting!"

"I’ll have someone send them to you at once!"

Bai Xiaoxiao immediately ordered Chu Jiangliu to go to the Creation Divine Palace to retrieve Spiritual Objects.

Lin Bai smiled faintly, stood up, and cupped his fists. "Everyone, after this battle, it was I, Lin Bai, who dragged you all down. Not only did you lose your fame and status in the East Continent, but now you all bear a foul name across the East Continent as well!"

"Lin Bai apologizes to you all!"

Lin Bai cupped his fists to Yin Jiuling and the others and bowed.

In that bow, there was all of Lin Bai’s guilt and self-blame.
