Chapter 2814: Chapter 2789: Vengeance Fulfilled!
In the Flying Dragon Forest, on a secluded path, fireflies floated happily in the air. Amidst this green light, a man and a woman walked side by side, whispering to each other.
"Brother Huo Cheng, after listening to you explain the sword skill, I feel I have a whole new understanding of my own sword skill," Gu Yuzhu said shyly, her face blushing as she lowered her head.
Huo Cheng smiled and said, "Sister Gu Yuzhu, your innate talent for cultivation is already quite good, plus you possess a Quasi-Divine Martial Soul. Your potential in the future is limitless. I’ve just taken one step ahead; it won’t be long before you catch up with me!"
Gu Yuzhu shyly said, "No way! In my heart, Brother Huo Cheng will always be the strongest Sword Cultivator. Even those Nine Great Swords of the Sword God Family will bow before Brother Huo Cheng in the future!"
"And that Ye Nuo of the Ye Clan, every time he sees us, he has such an arrogant demeanor. If we didn’t need to rely on the cultivation resources of the Sword God Family now, I would have flipped out on him long ago."
Huo Cheng consoled her, saying, "Alright, Sister Gu Yuzhu, stop complaining. You must bow your head when under someone’s roof. We currently need the power of the Ye Clan to enter the Sword God Path to find the power to dominate the Barbaric Ancient Continent!"
"Once we emerge from the Sword God Path, anyone who bullies you will have to answer to me!"
Gu Yuzhu laughed joyfully, "Brother Huo Cheng, you are so good!"
Huo Cheng smiled happily.
"Ah, I really can’t listen anymore—two kids not even twenty years old talking love here; it’s making me sick!"
"But I must admit, the love at your age is the purest love."
At this moment, a cold voice suddenly came from behind them.
Gu Yuzhu was startled, immediately turning around.
Huo Cheng, on the other hand, angrily shouted, "Who? Sneaking around? Don’t you have the face to see people?"
A white-robed man walked out from among the fireflies, expressionlessly looking at them.
"Lin Bai, huh? What, isn’t the humiliation I gave you today enough? Now you want to humiliate yourself further?" Huo Cheng looked at Lin Bai and immediately sneered.
Gu Yuzhu, with a face full of anger, said, "Listening in on our conversation, kneel and admit your mistake immediately, or you won’t escape today’s calamity!"
Lin Bai walked towards Huo Cheng and Gu Yuzhu, gently laughing, "If you’re ready, we can start now?"
Huo Cheng saw Lin Bai full of murderous intent and laughed coldly, "What, are you planning to fight us? Look at your strength; do you have the qualifications?"
Gu Yuzhu coldly looked at Lin Bai, her beautiful eyes filled with indifference.
"Sister Gu Yuzhu, since he wants to find trouble, I’ll let him. You just watch from the side." Huo Cheng sneered, drawing a sharp sword from his storage bag and taking a step forward.
Lin Bai said, "It’s better if both of you make your move together; otherwise, it’s a waste of time."
Huo Cheng sneered, saying, "Dealing with you doesn’t require both of us. See my sword!"
As he spoke, Huo Cheng gripped the sharp sword and rushed forward, stabbing directly at Lin Bai.
Brilliant and sharp sword aura swept through the dark forest, dazzling and eye-catching.
At this moment, the sword light illuminated Lin Bai’s cold face; another sword light flew out from Lin Bai’s hand, sweeping through the darkness, followed by the sound of "puchi" as blood splattered everywhere.
Pa——
Huo Cheng, who had rushed forward, fell straight onto the path, blood flowing from his neck, and at this moment, Huo Cheng had no life left.
"Brother Huo Cheng..." Gu Yuzhu cried out.
Gu Yuzhu hurriedly ran over, seeing Huo Cheng already dead, was so frightened that her face turned pale and powerless. She looked at Lin Bai in shock and said, "You actually killed Brother Huo Cheng!"
Lin Bai laughed, "Do you miss him? Then I’ll send you down to join him?"
As he spoke, Lin Bai swung his sword towards Gu Yuzhu.
Gu Yuzhu was immediately enveloped by a strong life-and-death crisis, urgently shouting, "Don’t... don’t kill me... if you kill me, Brother Ye Nuo won’t let you off!"
Puchi!
As Gu Yuzhu exclaimed, Lin Bai’s sword had already slit her throat.
Gu Yuzhu fell beside Huo Cheng, her life vanished.
Lin Bai looked at Gu Yuzhu’s corpse, softly saying, "Just now you said Ye Nuo was bad in every way, but when I was about to kill you, you said Ye Nuo wouldn’t let me off!"
"How ridiculous."
After killing these two, Lin Bai turned around and left, disappearing into the Flying Dragon Forest.
...
In front of Lin Bai’s wooden house, Lin Chen and Yu Yu looked at the bodies of Sang Feng and Gu Yang on the ground, their faces solemnly worried.
"Brother Lin Bai has been gone for two hours already, could something have happened?" Lin Chen said anxiously.
Yu Yu quietly said, "Brother Lin Bai’s strength far surpasses ours; don’t worry, even if he isn’t those people’s opponent, it’s very difficult for them to deal with Brother Lin Bai!"
Lin Chen nodded slightly.
At this moment, Lin Chen and Yu Yu turned back, sensing a pungent smell of blood from the forest behind the wooden house, immediately tensing their nerves.
But Lin Ye was unmoved, seemingly unaware.
At this time, from the dark forest, a white-robed man walked out, holding a sharp sword, step by step reaching the front of the wooden house, standing before the bodies of Sang Feng and Gu Yang.
"Your revenge, I have avenged for you!"
"You can... rest in peace."
Lin Bai stood before Sang Feng and Gu Yang, speaking faintly, thus reclaiming his sword, indicating he wouldn’t take action anymore tonight.
"Bury their bodies." Lin Bai said lightly.
"Okay." Lin Chen nodded.
Lin Ye began to dig a pit.
Shortly after, everyone buried Sang Feng and Gu Yang.
Lin Chen looked at Lin Bai at this moment and asked, "Brother Lin Bai, they..."
Lin Bai said, "No need to ask, I don’t want to talk about it. Just pretend you heard nothing and saw nothing, go back and rest!"
Upon hearing Lin Bai’s clean and straightforward words, Lin Chen and Yu Yu exchanged a glance, unable to question further. After saying goodbye to Lin Bai, they returned to their own accommodations to recover.
Lin Bai returned to the wooden house, carrying a wine pot, sitting on the threshold, drinking wine, watching the moon.
After dawn the next day, news spread from the Flying Dragon Forest, shaking the entire Sword God Family tremendously.
It even alarmed the family’s high-ranking figures.
That is... Within the Flying Dragon Forest, the invited eighteen genius Sword Cultivators were all killed overnight!
