Chapter 2817: Chapter 2792: Revealing His Identity!
Dugu Fei glared at Lin Bai with annoyance, finally shaking his head helplessly.
"I told you to be patient and wait, the Sword God Family will give you an explanation." Dugu Fei said, suppressing his anger.
Lin Bai said coldly, "Explanation? Can the Sword God Family provide one? You’ve also said before that Gu Yuzhu, Huo Cheng, and Jiang Zhen are warriors valued by the Ye Clan, even if the Sword God Family gives an explanation?"
"So what?"
"I suspect it would only result in a few months of solitary confinement to settle the matter!"
"You know, when Gu Yang was in the Flying Dragon Hall, he slit his own throat right in front of me, begging me to avenge them!"
"And they were targeting us, so since that’s the case, I might as well make a direct move to resolve it once and for all!"
Lin Bai said calmly.
Upon hearing these words, Dugu Fei felt at a loss for words, finally shaking his head and saying, "Forget it, right now the Ye Clan also hasn’t set their sights on you, they’ve pinned all the blame on Dugu Yitian."
"What does he have to do with it?" Lin Bai asked curiously.
Dugu Fei smiled bitterly and said, "Because the sword marks you left after killing those eighteen people are remarkably similar to the ’One Sword Art’ practiced by Dugu Yitian, both result in a one-strike kill!"
"Therefore, they naturally suspect Dugu Yitian!"
"Moreover, in the current Sword God Family, the only one who can cultivate such a tyrannical sword skill and kill eighteen Tianjiao sword cultivators with one strike is the Sword Child!"
"Dugu Yitian is naturally their prime suspect!"
Lin Bai nodded in sudden realization.
"Since the Ye Clan hasn’t realized it’s you, you’d best keep quiet for these few days and refrain from causing any trouble. I have to deal with matters within the Ed Clan, and will not be returning to the Flying Dragon Forest for a few days."
Dugu Fei said.
Seeing Dugu Fei about to leave, Lin Bai hurriedly called out, "Wait!"
Dugu Fei asked, "Do you still have something to say?"
Lin Bai looked at Dugu Fei and said, "I want to meet the Sword Venerable!"
Upon hearing this, Dugu Fei’s eyes flickered, and he softly said, "You don’t need to involve the Sword Venerable in this matter, otherwise, once he intervenes, simple matters may become more complicated!"
Lin Bai chuckled softly, "You’ve misunderstood, I want to see the Sword Venerable for another matter, not this one!"
Dugu Fei shook his head and said, "Impossible, with your current status, you don’t have the qualifications to meet the Sword Venerable!"
Lin Bai smiled slightly, took out a Token from his Storage Bag, held it in his hand, and displayed it to Dugu Fei, saying with a smile, "If I request to see the Sword Venerable of the Sword God Family as the Saint of the East Continent Academy, I wonder if I have the qualification!"
Dugu Fei’s eyes widened with shock as he looked at the Token in Lin Bai’s hand.
On that Token were eight extraordinary and imposing characters: "East Continent Academy, Saint Lin Bai."
"East Continent Academy, Saint Lin Bai!" Lin Chen and Yu Yu shuddered upon hearing this, unable to resist staring at the Token in Lin Bai’s hand.
At this moment, Lin Chen and Yu Yu were astounded, and as surprised, they said, "So... he’s the Saint of the East Continent Academy!"
Lin Bai put away the Identity Token and said, "I think Elder Dugu Fei guessed my identity long ago."
Dugu Fei smiled bitterly and said, "When I saw you in Sky Sword City, I immediately knew."
Simultaneously, Lin Bai took out a letter of introduction from his Storage Bag, handed it to Dugu Fei, and said, "I now request to see the Sword Venerable of the Sword God Family as the Saint of the East Continent Academy!"
"Present the letter of introduction!"
Lin Bai said softly.
Dugu Fei took the letter, inspected it, put it away, and said, "Alright, I will report to the Sword Venerable, please wait for a moment, Saint Lin Bai!"
Having said this, Dugu Fei turned and left.
This time, Lin Bai did not stop Dugu Fei.
After Dugu Fei left, Lin Bai turned to look at Lin Chen and Yu Yu, noticing their stunned expressions as they stared at Lin Bai, wide-eyed and open-mouthed.
Lin Bai chuckled softly and said, "If I hadn’t entered the Sword God Family by the way of Sky Sword City, I wouldn’t have been able to enter its premises!"
"Apologies, you should have been the first in Sky Sword City!"
Lin Chen was dumbfounded, "Are you really the Saint of the East Continent Academy?"
Yu Yu asked in shock, "Lin Bai brother... you..."
Lin Bai nodded and said, "Indeed! I am the Saint of the East Continent Academy!"
Lin Chen laughed bitterly, "That explains it; I was still wondering why those eighteen powerful Tianjiao in the Flying Dragon Forest were like cabbages, defeated so easily by you!"
"Turns out you are the Saint of the East Continent Academy!"
Yu Yu also stared at Lin Bai in shock.
...
Dugu Fei returned to the Edgar Lineage with the letter of introduction.
He arrived at the Dark Hall.
As soon as Dugu Fei stepped into the hall, a cold voice rang out. "Was it him?"
Dugu Fei clasped his hands and said, "Yes, after I confronted him, he bluntly admitted that he killed those eighteen Tianjiao in the Flying Dragon Forest!"
The voice laughed lightly, "I heard that this Saint of the East Continent Academy was already a lawless existence in the East Continent, as expected, he is extraordinary!"
Dugu Fei said, "Sword Venerable, the Ye Clan has blamed this on Dugu Yitian; they all think it was his doing..."
Sword Venerable replied, "No need to concern yourself with the Ye Clan, even if their fury burns, they wouldn’t dare to lightly make a move against the Edgar Lineage, besides, haven’t we two families been enemies and allies forever?"
"Let them fuss about!"
Sword Venerable said with a light laugh.
"As for Dugu Yitian, you need not concern yourself either, should the Ye Clan want to exact revenge, let them approach Dugu Yitian. With his cultivation, unless Yejian Jun emerges from seclusion, not even Ye Nuo could survive an encounter with Dugu Yitian!"
Sword Venerable said with a smile.
At this moment, Dugu Fei took out the letter of introduction from his Storage Bag and said, "Sword Venerable, Lin Bai, in his capacity as the Saint of the East Continent Academy, presents his letter for requesting a meeting!"
"Will Sword Venerable grant him an audience?"
Dugu Fei asked.
Instantly, a surge of Sword Intention emerged in the Dark Hall, lifting the letter from Dugu Fei’s hands and flipping it in mid-air.
After reviewing it, the letter flew into the darkness, while Sword Venerable’s voice rang out, "Do I have any choice?"
"The East Continent Academy stands equal among the superpowers on the Barbaric Ancient Continent with us, the Sword God Family!"
"As the Saint of the East Continent Academy, he naturally has the qualification to face the Sword Venerable of the Sword God Family!"
"Now that he’s sent his letter, if I refuse to meet him, news might reach the East Continent Academy suggesting our Sword God Family disrespects them!"
"Therefore, as long as Lin Bai reveals his identity, I naturally have to see him!"
"Dugu Fei, bring him to the Edsword Tomb tomorrow, let him come see me, I’m quite curious about why this Saint of the East Continent Academy traveled such a distance to visit the Sword God Family."
Sword Venerable said softly.
"Yes!" Dugu Fei nodded in agreement.
