The Unparalleled Sword Emperor

Chapter 2760 - 2735: Setting Out! Sky Sword City!

The first rays of the morning sun brushed over Dragon City, falling on that commander flag.The black commander flag positioned next to Tang Yuezhi, under the sunlight, transformed into wisps of smoke in front of Tang Yuezhi, dispersing and then reforming into a black token.

This token bore the four large characters "City Lord of Blackwater City."

Tang Yuezhi, excited, grabbed the token, stood up, and raised it above his head, allowing all the warriors within Dragon City and those beyond the Dragon City Mountain Range to see that Tang Yuezhi had seized the City Lord’s Order!

"It’s over!"

"It’s over!"

"The Tang Family is the next City Lord!"

All the warriors exclaimed in excitement.

The most joyful were Tangjing Yuan, Tangjing Xiu, and other Tang Family martial artists.

"Let’s go, we should head out!"

Lin Bai descended from the stone stele, glanced at Tang Yuezhi and Tang Yang, then kicked Zhoutian Hao flying into the arms of the Zhou Family’s warriors.

Now that the Dragon City Battle was concluded, Zhoutian Hao was of no further use to Lin Bai.

Tang Yuezhi and Tang Yang, dragging their heavily injured bodies, stood up and left the Dragon City Mountain Range, following Lin Bai.

When they came, there were hundreds of people in the Tang Family.

Upon returning, only two from the Tang Family remained.

If Lin Bai had not been there, even Tang Yuezhi and Tang Yang might not have survived.

This is the Dragon City Decisive Battle, ten enter, none survive!

Returning from the Dragon City Mountain, they landed before the mountain range.

Tangjing Xiu and Tangjing Yuan hurriedly rushed over.

Tangjing Xiu, excited, said to Lin Bai, "Thank you, Brother Lin Bai!"

Lin Bai replied with a smile, "Glad I didn’t fail the mission!"

"Father." Tang Yuezhi excitedly rushed over, threw himself into Tangjing Xiu’s arms, and burst into tears.

Tangjing Xiu tightly hugged Tang Yuezhi, joyfully laughing, "Good, good, good..."

The surrounding congratulatory voices erupted.

And amidst the congratulatory voices of all the warriors in Blackwater City, the Tang Family martial artists returned to Blackwater City.

Lin Bai returned to the Guest Quarters as usual, went to the secret chamber, and began healing.

Time passed quickly, and five days went by.

During these five days, no one bothered Lin Bai, and he was able to restore his cultivation and spiritual power to their peak state in peace.

And in Blackwater City, during these five days, people were astonished by the Tang Family becoming the City Lord of Blackwater City.

"Lin Bai!" That day, Tang Yuezhi called out from outside Lin Bai’s residence.

Lin Bai smiled slightly upon seeing Tang Yuezhi approaching.

Lin Bai said with a smile, "The Tang Family has taken over as city lord of Blackwater City. Did the other seven families have any objections?"

Tang Yuezhi shook his head and said with a wry smile, "The Zhao Family, Zhou Family, and Qian Family naturally have significant objections, but there’s nothing they can do. Rules are rules. Now that the Tang Family is in charge of Blackwater City, it’s a done deal."

"As for the Li Family, Wu Family, Zheng Family, and Sun Family, they originally didn’t want to see the Zhao Family back in power in Blackwater City. Now that the city lord of Blackwater City is in the hands of the Tang Family, it’s something they can accept!"

"After much consideration, the Tang Family decided to have my father become the city lord!"

"During these days, my father has been gradually taking over the affairs of Blackwater City from Zhao Wuji, which is why you haven’t seen him. My father asked me to let you know that please, don’t feel neglected!"

Tang Yuezhi said with a smile.

Lin Bai nodded with a smile and said, "The Tang Family has just taken charge of Blackwater City, it’s naturally very busy, I understand this well!"

"Alright, since I’ve fulfilled the agreement with the Tang Family, I should also bid farewell now."

Tang Yuezhi’s smile faded, and he said in surprise, "Are you leaving? Where are you going?"

"Back to the East Continent? Or continue to wander in the Northern Continent?"

Lin Bai was taken aback and looked at Tang Yuezhi strangely, saying, "So the Tang Family already knew I came from the East Continent?"

Tang Yuezhi smiled awkwardly and said, "We not only know that you are from the East Continent, but we also know that you are the Saint of the East Continent!"

"Demonic Sword Purple Hui, Saint of the East Continent, Lin Bai!"

Tang Yuezhi said with a smile.

Lin Bai smiled and said, "There are still some things I need to do on the Northern Continent. Now that matters in Blackwater City are mostly settled, I should set out!"

Tang Yuezhi asked, "Where to?"

Lin Bai replied, "Sky Sword City!"

Tang Yuezhi was surprised and said, "You are going to Sky Sword City to participate in the Barbarian Ancient Sword Debate Competition hosted by the Sword God Family?"

But upon thinking it over, Tang Yuezhi said, "That makes sense. You are an unparalleled Tianjiao in the way of the sword, and you should participate in this competition originally meant for sword cultivators!"

"When do you plan to set out?"

Tang Yuezhi asked.

Lin Bai smiled and said, "Right now. Please inform your father for me; I won’t stay long in the Tang Family. Now I will take Lin Ye and leave Blackwater City!"

Tang Yuezhi said in surprise, "Are you in such a hurry to leave?"

Lin Bai smiled and said, "I don’t have much time to waste."

Tang Yuezhi nodded and said, "Then take this map with you. It’s a detailed map of the Northern Continent; I originally prepared it for my travels."

"But now that the Tang Family has just taken charge of Blackwater City, I can’t leave for a while. I don’t need the map anymore."

"The map indicates the locations of Yunmeng Marsh and Sky Sword City!"

"Lin Bai, be careful. The Yunmeng Marsh is filled with countless sword-path geniuses laid to rest, and there may even be sword cultivators more distinguished and powerful than you!"

Lin Bai accepted the map, nodded slightly, and said, "Alright, I understand."

"Thank the Tang Family for me; we shall take our leave now."

"Oh, by the way, I don’t have a gift for parting, but this box contains a small gift for you. Just remember, don’t casually teach this small gift to others!"

Lin Bai said with a smile. Then, taking Lin Ye, he left Blackwater City.

Tang Yuezhi escorted Lin Bai out of Blackwater City. Watching Lin Bai’s distant figure and hearing his cheerful voice fading into the sky, Tang Yuezhi sighed softly before turning to return to the Tang Family.

Coming to the Tang Family’s main hall, Tangjing Xiu, who had been busy all day, just sat down when he saw Tang Yuezhi enter and said with a smile, "Yuezhi, have your injuries healed? I’ve been so busy these days that I haven’t gone to see you!"

Tang Yuezhi smiled and said, "I’m fine, Father. I came to tell you that Lin Bai has left Blackwater City."

Tangjing Xiu was taken aback and asked in surprise, "What? He’s left? Why didn’t you keep him here!"

Tang Yuezhi gave Tangjing Xiu a wry smile and said nothing.

After a while, Tangjing Xiu sighed lightly and said, "Well, it’s true. A sword cultivator of his caliber wouldn’t stay in a small place like Blackwater City!"

"He is like a Divine Dragon, meant to roam all over the world, not confined to a single mud pond!"

"So be it. If he’s left, let him go!"

Tangjing Xiu said calmly.

Tang Yuezhi nodded slightly, looking somewhat desolate.

Tangjing Xiu, having lived for decades, could naturally see the desolation on Tang Yuezhi’s face, and he knew that Tang Yuezhi might have had feelings for Lin Bai.

It’s a pity, though, that the gap between them was too great.

Even if the Tang Family had now become the city lord of Blackwater City, in front of Lin Bai, this Saint of the East Continent, they were still not someone who could stand on the stage!

The Saint of the East Continent, how noble, the leader of the myriad Tianjiao in the East Continent!

...

In the middle of the night, Tang Yuezhi returned to her small courtyard, where she took out the small box Lin Bai had given her from the storage bag.

Upon opening it, inside lay a book.

The cover of the book read... Great Five Elements Skill!
