Lin Bai confronted the Ninth Elder, demanding to know Ye Suxin's whereabouts. The Ninth Elder claimed she was dead, killed by poisons in the Ninth Floor of the Poison Cave, and presented a bloodstained cloth as evidence. Lin Bai refused to believe this, suspecting deception and demanding the Poison God Clan produce Ye Suxin alive or dead. The Ninth Elder, dismissive and pressed for time, attempted to leave, but Lin Bai blocked his path, initiating a fierce battle.

The warriors on Cloud Peak began murmuring softly.

The Seventeenth Prince said, "It seems to have come from outside Cloud Peak, Yu Ru, Senior?"

Yu Ru nodded slightly and said, "This seems to be the aura of the Ninth Elder."

The Seventeenth Prince was stunned, "Ninth Elder? He has the cultivation of Great Perfection of the Wending Realm. Who is so reckless to dare to confront a warrior of Great Perfection of the Wending Realm? Let’s go and see!"

As he spoke, the Seventeenth Prince stood up from his seat and walked out of Cloud Peak.

Yu Ru also followed along.

At the same time, all the warriors on Cloud Peak walked out, arriving mid-air, and looked towards the Ninth Elder and Lin Bai.

Among the crowd, when Shangguan Cun saw Lin Bai, his eyes flashed fiercely, and a trace of bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "It’s indeed you who have some connection to this calamity."

"Brother Lin Bai! So the important matter he mentioned about leaving was to pursue the Ninth Elder?" Xu Li also walked out and exclaimed upon seeing Lin Bai.

Lin Bai was surrounded by a murderous aura, holding a wooden sword, his expression twisted and ferocious.

"Lin Bai!" Mo Wenshen exclaimed in surprise from behind the Seventeenth Prince.

"Is it him?" The Seventeenth Prince chuckled and glanced at Mo Wenshen.

Of course, the Seventeenth Prince knew Lin Bai, having seen him from afar once during the Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures’ birthday celebration.

At that time, the Seventeenth Prince intended to recruit him, but since Mo Wenshen mentioned Lin Bai seemed to have some relationship with Lin Duo, the Seventeenth Prince ordered Mo Wenshen to investigate Lin Bai’s origins and accurate identity.

Yu Ru glanced at Lin Bai, then asked the Ninth Elder, "Ninth Elder, what’s going on here?"

Seeing Yu Ru and the Seventeenth Prince stepping out, the Ninth Elder came to Yu Ru’s side and whispered, "Patriarch sir, this person is named Lin Bai, and he is the fiancé of Ye Suxin whom I previously captured. This time, he seems to have come to the Poison God Clan looking for Ye Suxin."

"However, Ye Suxin has already died in the Poison Cave, but he doesn’t believe it. He insists on twisting the truth, demanding me to hand over Ye Suxin. Just now, he even took action!"

The Ninth Elder concisely explained the whole story.

"Lin Bai!" Yu Ru murmured softly, "Ah, I remember now, the former Saint of the East Continent!"

The Ninth Elder nodded, "That’s right, it’s him. Although he was expelled from the East Continent Academy, he was once a disciple of the academy. So, out of regard for the academy, I’ve been lenient."

Yu Ru nodded slightly, looking at Lin Bai and shouted, "Friend Lin Bai..."

Lin Bai looked at Yu Ru, clasped his hands in salute, and said, "Yu Ru, Senior."

Yu Ru said softly, "Your fiancée Ye Suxin did indeed die in the Poison Cave. Initially, our Poison God Clan brought her back only to investigate Xia Qiu’s death. But unexpectedly, before we could carry out the investigation, she died at the mouth of poisons inside the Poison Cave."

"It’s truly a pity."

"To express our family’s apologies and our generations of friendly ties with the East Continent Academy, our Poison God Clan is willing to offer some compensation for this matter to be over. What do you say?"

Lin Bai replied expressionlessly, "I don’t believe Ye Suxin would die on the Ninth Floor of the Poison Cave, nor do I believe what your Poison God Clan says."

"I have only one thing to say, I want to see her alive or dead."

Yu Ru said expressionlessly, "Friend Lin Bai, our Poison God Clan does not wish to entangle with you further, and I kindly ask you not to push the boundaries!"

Lin Bai said coldly, "Please have the Poison God Clan hand over Ye Suxin!"

Yu Ru said coldly, "She is dead."

Lin Bai replied coldly, "Please hand over Ye Suxin, Poison God Clan!"

Lin Bai’s words started to become harsh.

Yu Ru was gradually losing patience, coldly looking at Lin Bai and said, "If you continue your unreasonable demands, don’t blame our Poison God Clan for not respecting the East Continent Academy."

Lin Bai said coldly, "Please hand over Ye Suxin, Poison God Clan!"

Yu Ru coldly and lifelessly looked at Lin Bai, remained silent for a moment, then turned and left, saying, "Drive him away!"

Hearing Yu Ru’s words, the Ninth Elder’s face flashed a slight smile, took a step forward and said, "Lin Bai, did you hear our patriarch’s words? If you know what’s good for you, leave now obediently, otherwise if I take action to drive you away, your face will surely be lost."

Seeing the attitudes of the Poison God Clan’s Yu Ru and the Ninth Elder, Lin Bai’s expression gradually turned cold.

Immediately, Lin Bai turned on his heel and left, his voice loud and echoing throughout the entire Thousand Poisons Mountain Range.

He said, "I’ll give the Poison God Clan a month to consider. After a month, if Ye Suxin is not handed over, don’t blame me for being rude!"

As he finished speaking, Lin Bai turned and walked out of the Poison God Clan.

"Tch." The Ninth Elder snorted disdainfully, not taking Lin Bai’s threat to heart.

And Yu Ru along with the other warriors of the Poison God Clan had even more contempt.

"Tch? I wonder how he plans to be rude?"

"Just a mere warrior at the First Level of the Wending Realm, can he really shake the heavens?"

"Daring to act rashly in the Poison God Clan, if not for the East Continent Academy behind you, you wouldn’t be able to leave so easily today."

"Is he looking to die?"

"East Continent Academy? He has already been expelled from there, now he’s just a lost dog."

"A lost dog, and still dares to bark? Seeking death!"

When Lin Bai passed by these warriors, he heard quite a few sneers.

But Lin Bai did not take them to heart.

When Lin Bai walked out of Cloud Peak, he shouted once again in rage, "Poison God Clan, remember, you have only one month!"

"If I don’t see Ye Suxin in a month!"

"I’ll flatten the Poison God Clan!"

Lin Bai shouted furiously with clenched teeth, his voice echoing throughout Yun Tian Peak, echoing in the ears of all warriors.

"If I don’t see Ye Suxin in a month, I’ll flatten the Poison God Clan..."

"Flatten the Poison God Clan!"

"Flatten the Poison God Clan!"

"Flatten the Poison God Clan!"

"..."

This voice echoed endlessly, like a spell reverberating in the ears of all warriors.

Hearing this voice, Yu Ru turned silently to glance in the direction Lin Bai left, shaking his head in boredom and said to the Seventeenth Prince, "Apologies, Your Highness, for interrupting your enjoyment. Let’s continue drinking."

The Seventeenth Prince smiled slightly, paying it no mind, turned and left.

Back at the seats, everyone continued drinking and enjoying themselves merrily.

And the warriors of the Poison God Clan didn’t take Lin Bai’s threat seriously at all.

The mighty Poison God Clan, an ancient power that has stood the test of time and numerous storms on the Barbaric Ancient Continent, how could it be shaken by a mere warrior at the First Level of the Wending Realm?

Everyone treated Lin Bai’s words as mere passing wind, except Shangguan Cun, whose eyes flashed as he thought in terror, "Is the calamity about to begin? Was today’s Lin Bai the beginning of the Nanzhou calamity?"
