1183: Chapter 1181: Lin Bai’s Identity!
On the other side, Zhao Longtu swiftly moved away and returned to his residence!
“Saintess Your Highness, why did you stop me?
If it were not for your telepathic message, I would have had to kill Lin Bai today!” Zhao Longtu entered the Great Hall and, upon seeing a woman, said angrily.
This woman was none other than Hua Yuxian.
“Lin Bai cannot die yet, perhaps he might still be useful to the Sacred Religion!
My banquet will start in three days, and before the banquet, Lin Bai needs to be alive.
If after the banquet, Lin Bai proves to be of no use to the Sacred Religion, then if you wish to kill him, I will naturally not stop you,”
Hua Yuxian said coldly.
“Hehe, really?
It seems that is your plan, Saintess Your Highness, but I am afraid you will be disappointed!”
“Lin Bai will never be of use to the Sacred Religion!”
“Do you know Lin Bai’s identity?”
Zhao Longtu said with a sneer.
Hua Yuxian nodded lightly and said, “I have looked into it a bit.
He was born in a minor dynasty in Lingdong, the Shenwu Kingdom.
He has been an orphan since childhood…”
Zhao Longtu sneered, “Orphaned?
Hahahaha, it seems that Saintess Your Highness knows nothing about Lin Bai’s identity.
No wonder, if it weren’t for me, probably no one else would have sought to uncover his identity.”
Hua Yuxian asked curiously, “Could there be more secrets to Lin Bai’s identity?”
“Haha.” Zhao Longtu sneered and said, “Lin Bai’s father is Lin Duo, who destroyed the Five Poison Sect twenty years ago!”
Crack—
Upon hearing Zhao Longtu’s words, Hua Yuxian’s face immediately changed dramatically as she looked at Zhao Longtu.
“Do you have proof of what you just said?” Hua Yuxian asked coldly.
Zhao Longtu sneered, “Lin Bai’s father is Lin Duo, and his Third Uncle is Lin Yue!”
“Surely you must have heard of Lin Yue, Your Highness?”
“Lin Yue is the husband of Sect Hierarch’s daughter, Feng Yunwei!”
“Over a year ago, I took in a foster daughter, who was the Saintess of the Canghai Yuntai Palace in the Territory of the Shenwu Kingdom.
I originally planned to take her back to the Miracle Ridge for cultivation!”
“But in that battle, she died at the hands of Lin Bai!”
“Initially, I wanted to kill Lin Bai to avenge her, but in the end, Lin Yue showed up.”
“Who else could make Lin Yue take action to save someone, if not the son of his elder brother from those days?”
“If Saintess Your Highness does not believe me, you can order the Five Poison Sect to check this matter within the Territory of the Shenwu Kingdom, and then you will know whether I am telling the truth or not,”
Zhao Longtu said in a cold voice.
Hua Yuxian’s face turned utterly cold.
“Thus, if Your Highness wishes to use Lin Bai for the Sacred Religion, I advise you to abandon this idea soon!”
“More than twenty years ago, his father destroyed the Five Poison Sect!”
“This man has a deep-seated vendetta with the Five Poison Sect!”
“Do you think he would work for the Five Poison Sect?”
Zhao Longtu said in a cold voice.
Hua Yuxian said coldly, “This matter is of great importance, why did you only tell me now after I’ve been in the Miracle Ridge for so long?”
Zhao Longtu exclaimed, “I thought Your Highness knew.
I had already reported this matter to the Sacred Religion, and I personally went to see the Saint too.”
“Miao Shang?” Hua Yuxian’s eyes turned icy cold!
Zhao Longtu asked, “What?
Has Saint Miao Shang not mentioned this matter to Your Highness?”
“Years ago, Lin Yue and Feng Yunwei had an affair, which was discovered by the Sect Hierarch.
If not for Feng Yunwei’s pleading, Lin Yue would have been killed by the Sect Hierarch a long time ago!”
“Subsequently, upon hearing of the incident, Lin Duo returned from Lingnan, and with his peerless Sword Strength, he obliterated the Five Poison Sect!”
“With such a deep-seated vendetta, would the Sacred Religion really just let Lin Bai go?”
Zhao Longtu said in a cold voice.
Hua Yuxian took a deep breath, her eyes gleaming sharply, “Hehe, if Lin Bai is really the son of Lin Duo, then the Sacred Religion naturally cannot let him go easily!”
“I will thoroughly inquire with the Sect Hierarch and the Saint after I return to the Sacred Religion,”
“But now, with the banquet imminent, I cannot afford to be distracted,”
Hua Yuxian said lightly.
“Just now, Your Highness should not have stopped me!
Lin Bai was Taking Action within the Nine Courtyards, which is against the rules of the Miracle Ridge, even if I had killed him just now, Dugu Yun would not have intervened!”
“That was a once-in-a-millennium opportunity, and it was just missed in vain.”
Zhao Longtu spoke in a continuously cold voice.
…
In the Heavenly Sound Court!
Lin Bai and Hong Su arrived at her small courtyard!
“The Saint doesn’t visit late at night just to chat with me.” Hong Su said indifferently.
Lin Bai spoke frankly, “Ye Suxin is getting married, did you know that?”
Hong Su smiled, “Suxin and I are intimate friends from the inner chambers, of course I’m aware.”
Lin Bai took a deep breath and asked, “Why?”
Hong Su smiled faintly, “Su Cang is from the Lingnan Su Dynasty, of noble origins, and both Suxin and he are deeply in love with each other.
What’s wrong with them getting married?”
Lin Bai asked, “My question is, is Ye Suxin doing this of her own free will, or is this Ye Wuhuan’s idea?”
Hong Su replied, “Of her own free will.”
Lin Bai heard the answer given by Hong Su.
His heart was a mess!
Recalling the time when Lin Bai had given Ye Suxin the fruit, that look in her eyes, her words, Lin Bai had been sure that Ye Suxin held a place for him in her heart!
But why?
If she had Lin Bai in her heart, why then did she agree to marry Su Cang?
“Has the Saint finished questioning?” Hong Su asked with a smile.
Lin Bai remained silent.
“Since the Saint has no more questions, please leave.”
Hong Su said indifferently.
Lin Bai silently looked at Hong Su, deliberated for a long while, then turned around and left the Heavenly Sound Court!
“Saint,” Hong Su called out softly.
Lin Bai stopped and looked at Hong Su.
Hong Su smiled faintly, “Saint, perhaps you came here to ask me a few inconsequential questions, maybe you don’t even know what answers you wish to hear.”
“Do you want me to tell you that Suxin loves you?”
“Or do you want me to tell you that Suxin does not love you?”
“When you don’t have an answer in your own heart, why come and ask me?”
Hong Su said indifferently.
Lin Bai responded, “I don’t understand what you mean.”
Hong Su replied, “Someday, you will understand.”
After taking another long look at Hong Su, Lin Bai turned around and left the Heavenly Sound Court!
Hong Su sighed lightly, “I don’t know whether what I’m doing is right or wrong!”
“The Ice Extinguishing Skill, truly a great dilemma!”
Hong Su shook her head and said.
…
At the Five Peaks!
Ye Suxin sat in her boudoir.
Ye Wuhuan slowly walked in, saw Ye Suxin daydreaming, and said lightly, “Suxin, I know what you’re thinking!”
“Although Lin Bai has won the title of the Five Pinnacle Saint, he is still only at the Heavenly Elixir Realm!”
“Compared to his strength, the Su Dynasty is overwhelmingly more powerful!”
“Only Su Cang is the best match for you!”
“You are father’s most beloved daughter; father would never harm you!”
Ye Wuhuan said indifferently.
Ye Suxin smiled faintly, her expression melancholic.
