The Unparalleled Sword Emperor Chapter 3121 - 3096: Sword Drawn!
Previously on The Unparalleled Sword Emperor...
Lin Bai stepped out of the Poison Mountain, not looking back once along the way.
Until the moment he exited the Poison Mountain, when Lin Bai turned back to look at that grayish gloom of a mountain range, a boundless fury appeared in his eyes, and he coldly said, "Sooner or later, I will split this damned place with a single sword."
"One month!"
"Poison God Clan, remember this, you only have one month."
Lin Bai left the Poison Mountain and returned to Dushan City. He lodged at an inn and began to cultivate in seclusion.
Taking out the Soul Refining Banner, Lin Bai continually tried to communicate with the Golden Soul.
Lin Bai’s eyes flickered as he once again entered the Soul Refining Space, standing before that platinum-colored Golden Soul, and said coldly, "I know you don’t have a consciousness, but I also know you can hear me."
"I don’t know if you are willing to obey my commands. I also know you are waiting for your master to return."
"But let me tell you, your master is already dead."
"You can either choose to eternally return to silence here, or you can choose to obey me, and I will make the power of the Soul Refining Banner shine again under Heaven."
Lin Bai looked at the Golden Soul and spoke coldly.
After speaking, the Golden Soul remained motionless, seemingly not hearing Lin Bai’s words at all.
After a long silence, Lin Bai didn’t speak again. As he turned to leave the Soul Refining Space, Lin Bai said, "I have encountered some trouble and might need your power, I hope you can help me!"
"If you’re not willing to help me..."
"Heh."
"Since I can’t command you, keeping you is useless."
"I will personally destroy the Soul Refining Banner!"
Lin Bai said frostily.
When Lin Bai mentioned destroying the Soul Refining Banner, the platinum-colored Golden Soul suddenly awakened, letting out a deafening roar toward Lin Bai.
The roar of the Near-Dao Realm Golden Soul echoed in the Soul Refining Space like a heavenly might.
Lin Bai heard the Golden Soul’s roar but maintained a cold expression, saying, "Roar as much as you like! This might be your last roar; I am giving you time to consider!"
"You should know, if you are not for me, then you are against me."
Lin Bai turned around and left the Soul Refining Space.
The Golden Soul continued to roar and howl, frightening the other Black Souls in the Soul Refining Space into trembling.
The banquet on Cloud Peak truly lasted for three days.
In those three days, there was singing, dancing, and merriment.
It seemed as if all the Poison God Clan warriors didn’t take Lin Bai’s threat seriously at all.
They regarded Lin Bai’s words as mere nonsense.
Seven days later, on the day after the banquet ended, the Seventeenth Prince left the Poison God Clan with Mo Wenshen, their whereabouts unknown.
It was also unclear whether the Seventeenth Prince returned to the Central Holy Nation or went somewhere else.
Ten days later, other warriors who visited the Poison God Clan as guest officials started leaving one by one, heading back to their families to prepare for the Seventeenth Prince’s major event.
Lin Bai stood by the window of Fate Inn, watching the warriors in Dushan City leave.
At this time, a waiter approached Lin Bai, looking at him with a terrified expression.
Lin Bai asked icily, "Speak."
The waiter, shivering with fear, said, "Master... Master..., it seems that the Poison God Clan... has not conducted any investigations..."
The waiter stood ten steps behind Lin Bai, looking at Lin Bai’s back.
Even though the waiter was ten steps away from Lin Bai, he could still clearly feel the cold and indifferent aura emanating from Lin Bai.
That aura made the waiter’s Divine Soul tremble.
It was terrifying.
The waiter swore he had spent his entire life at Fate Inn, meeting countless strong ones, but none gave him the terrifying dread Lin Bai did.
Lin Bai said, "Speak clearly and properly."
"Yes, yes..." The waiter swallowed hard, organized his thoughts, and then said, "Master, the Poison God Clan has done nothing to investigate Ye Suxin’s case."
"No one has searched for Ye Suxin’s whereabouts either."
"Senior Yu Ru has entered seclusion after sending off the Seventeenth Prince."
"And the Ninth Elder is in seclusion as well."
"Other disciples of the Poison God Clan continue their own tasks."
"It seems like no one is investigating Ye Suxin’s case."
The waiter said softly.
Lin Bai said, "Which means... they truly treated my words as nonsense!"
"What about the person I asked you to find?"
"Where is Mo Qing?"
The waiter said, "Master, I’ve looked into it, and they say Mo Qing disappeared after the Seventeenth Prince’s banquet, reportedly going into seclusion. No one knows where Mo Qing is, and it’s said even the elders of the Poison God Clan might not find Mo Qing at times."
Lin Bai nodded slightly, "Alright, if there are any movements in the Poison God Clan, notify me immediately."
After speaking, Lin Bai tossed a jade bottle containing nearly a million Spirit Liquid into the waiter’s arms.
The waiter held the jade bottle, about to turn and leave, but couldn’t help asking, "Master, if in a month’s time, the Poison God Clan can’t bring out Ye Suxin, will you really... raze the Poison God Clan to the ground?"
Lin Bai said expressionlessly, "Originally, this was just a pretext to provoke the Poison God Clan into helping me find Ye Suxin, but they are treating my words as nonsense now."
"Heh."
"However, when I, Lin Bai, make a promise, I deliver. If, after one month, the Poison God Clan fails to bring out Ye Suxin, then the days of the Poison God Clan will be numbered."
"But, whether or not I annihilate the Poison God Clan is not important. What matters is whether I can find Ye Suxin."
"In my heart, the Poison God Clan can’t compare to even a finger of Ye Suxin."
The waiter said, "But, Master, it seems the Poison God Clan isn’t intent on helping you find Ye Suxin..."
Lin Bai laughed, "You’re right, I should find a way to make the Poison God Clan take my words seriously."
"You can leave now."
The waiter glanced at Lin Bai once more and slowly withdrew.
Lin Bai stood at the window, watching as the dusk in Dushan City gradually dimmed.
After the sun set, Lin Bai disappeared from Fate Inn in a flash, his whereabouts unknown.
As the dusk settled.
The guest officials visiting the Poison God Clan left the Poison Mountain one by one.
Having already reached agreements with the Seventeenth Prince on their next steps, they returned to make preparations.
The disciples of the Poison God Clan also began to leave the Poison Mountain to complete tasks assigned by the clan.
Since the Poison God Clan had chosen to pledge loyalty to the Seventeenth Prince, it could no longer remain idle as before; it was time for the disciples to move around in Nanzhou.
At this moment, a group of Poison God Clan disciples were walking together, leaving the clan...
But in front of them appeared a white-robed man, holding a wooden sword...
