Sword Emperor of the Astonishing Sky

Yunkong Mountain is located at the northeast end of Lezhou. The mountains stretch for hundreds of thousands of miles. There are inexhaustible treasures of heaven, earth, materials, and miraculous medicines in the mountains.

Originally, this place was the habitat of the Lezhou Monster Clan. Later, the Paradise Sect rose up and occupied Yunkong Mountain and became the mountain gate. The monster clan in the mountain became the minions of the Paradise Sect.

The middle-aged man who greeted Lin Bai and Jiang Xuansu now, although he looked dignified, was full of demonic aura, and he was obviously a demon clan.

Lin Bai smiled and said: "My sister and I are unknown young people in Lezhou. We have heard about the name of the Paradise Sect for a long time. We happened to learn that the leader of the Paradise Sect was getting married, so we prepared some small gifts and came to congratulate him."

The middle-aged demon clan looked at Lin Bai and Jiang Xuansu. Lin Bai kept saying that he had prepared gifts, but did not take them out. The middle-aged demon clan smiled and said: "In that case, please go to the mountain first and wait in the Flower Fragrance Valley." Stay here, the wedding banquet will be in three days.”

The middle-aged demon clan raised his hand and summoned a little demon, and led Lin Bai and Jiang Xuansu to Huaxiang Valley.

In the Valley of Flowers, there are large buildings built, and the wood is newly felled. It is not difficult to see that it is a welcoming place built recently by the Paradise Sect specifically to receive visitors from all over the world.

When Lin Bai and Jiang Xuansu came to Huaxiang Valley, the valley was already filled with warriors from all directions.

They gathered together in twos and threes, chatting and laughing with each other. Watching Lin Bai and Jiang Xuansu enter the valley, they all cast friendly smiles and eyes.

After the little demon arranged a place for Lin Bai and Jiang Xuansu, he turned around and left. He also informed that there were dedicated little demons in the valley to serve them. If you have any needs, you can ask them. As long as it is not too excessive, the Paradise Church will do its best to satisfy them.

The Supreme Sect has a humble attitude and treats guests well. If Lin Bai and Jiang Xuansu had not seen the true face of the Supreme Sect, it would be difficult to connect the Supreme Sect with a cult.

After a tiring journey, Jiang Xuansu stayed in the guest room to rest, while Lin Bai went out and walked around casually.

The guests hosted by Huaxiang Valley are all small families and casual cultivators who are not well-known in Lezhou or other states.

To put it simply, they are all insignificant warriors.

Many warriors gathered together in the valley, drinking, talking and laughing, taking this opportunity to get to know more powerful people.

A hospitable warrior saw Lin Bai wandering around the valley and took the initiative to say hello.

Lin Bai walked over with a smile and took out a bottle of wine from the storage bag.

These warriors have always lived in poverty, and most of their money has been used to buy cultivation treasures. They rarely spend too much money on fine wine and food.

The jug of wine that Lin Bai took out was a fine wine brought from the Eternal Demon Sect. When these warriors saw it, they immediately salivated.

After three or two glasses of wine, Lin Bai became familiar with them, and the topics of discussion were not as boring as before. Taking advantage of the wine, many people expressed their views on the Bliss Sect.

"In my opinion, this wedding of the leader of the Paradise Sect is nothing more than selling sheep over dogs. Their real purpose is to find an opportunity to bring this powerful man from Lezhou together."

"That's right, the wolf ambition of the Paradise Sect is self-evident."

"But what can we do? Looking at the current Lezhou territory, who can fight against the Paradise Sect's branch?"

"..."

"Hey, what a pity. If the ancestor of my family had not died in Hengzhou, how could he have been willing to live under the power of the Paradise Sect!"

"That's nonsense, my sect ancestor also died in Hengzhou."

From chatting with these people, Lin Bai could easily tell that most of the warriors were forced to flatter the Bliss Sect.

The fundamental reason for this is still because of Longxian Baoyu.

The eight wealthy families in Hengzhou revived the Dragon Immortal Baoyu, which caused many strong men to go to Hengzhou to compete for it, causing a large number of strong men to perish in Hengzhou.

Then the Eternal Demon Sect secretly attacked the eight wealthy families in Hengzhou, and a large number of strong men fell among them, including many strong men from other states.

Although both battles took place in Hengzhou, the main characters were all the eight wealthy families in Hengzhou and the Eternal Demon Sect.

But there are no eggs left behind when the nest is overturned!

The battle between the eight wealthy families in Hengzhou and the Eternal Demon Sect involves too many family sects and forces.

Even if this battle is over, the aftermath will spread far beyond imagination.

If it were not for the Dragon Immortal Baoyu, and if there were not the secret rivalry between the Eternal Demon Sect and the eight wealthy families in Hengzhou, it would be absolutely impossible for so many masters in Lezhou to die in Hengzhou.

If these masters don't die, how can the Paradise Sect rise in just one or two years?

This series of chain reactions has led to the situation where the Paradise Sect is now the dominant one in Lezhou.

Nowadays, the guests who come to the wedding banquet of the Paradise Sect, whether they are invited or come on their own initiative, are unable to help themselves. If they do not obey the instructions of the Paradise Sect, then the only end that awaits them is death.

For example, the Zhang family in Tianyun City is already one of the few big families in Lezhou. Even the young master of the Zhang family has been secretly hunted by the Paradise Cult for a long time.

Under the overbearing authority of the Bliss Sect, these families and sects had to endure humiliation and survive.

…

In the next two or three days, Lin Bai would go to the warriors in Huaxiang Valley to drink and chat from time to time.

We also learned a lot of news and rumors about the Eternal Thirteen States from their mouths.

Jiang Xuansu asked: "You have been going out early and coming back late every day these past few days. Have you gained anything?"

Lin Bai stood at the window, looking at the bright moon on the mountain, and said in a low voice: "The battle between the Eternal Demon Sect and the eight wealthy families in Hengzhou has a wide range of implications, and the remaining power is so great that all the borders of the Eternal Thirteen States will not be spared."

"The Paradise Sect emerged in Lezhou, the Hundred Cities Alliance emerged in Xiongzhou, the monsters in Jiangzhou and the human race crossed the river to rule, and the demon clan in Shanzhou made trouble again..."

"The entire Eternal Thirteen States seem to be as calm as a pool of clear water, but in fact there are already undercurrents surging inside, and all forces are watching and waiting for opportunities."

Jiang Xuansu's heart sank. He didn't expect Zhang Zhang's involvement in the war to be so terrifying.

Lin Bai smiled faintly and said: "I finally understand now that it is easy to conquer the world but difficult to defend it!"

"With enough weapons and cavalry, you can conquer a country; but it is extremely difficult to defend this country. All forces, sects, families, and people's hearts... need to be conquered one by one. Consider.”

"What you fear most in this world is not someone fighting you with a real sword. What you fear most is those rumors and hidden arrows."

"In this world, what can kill is never the sword! It's the human heart."

"A king's thought will cause millions of corpses to fall; an ordinary man's thought will cause blood to splash five steps away."

"Even if it's a street vendor, as long as he has a vicious heart and a sharp tongue, he can drive a person to death!"

Hearing Lin Bai's words, Jiang Xuansu fell into deep thought!
