Since the Ice Family is inviting strong ones to compete for the Ice Blood Ginseng, naturally their first choice would be the Seven Major Sects and the royal mbers of the Seventy-two Dynasties. There are bound to be many strong ones among these powerful forces!
Su Xiani said, "Although the Ice Family is offering so Ice Blood Ginseng, they gain far more in return. Every year they host the martial arts competition, which brings considerable benefits to the Ice Family."
"For example, the Ice Family, through this competition, builds good relationships with the Seven Major Sects and the Seventy-two Dynasties. Over ti, the Ice Family’s status within the North Frost Dynasty rises sharply, even to the point of surpassing the dynasty’s royal family!"
"There’s even a rumor in the North Frost Dynasty... If the Ice Family desired, the royal lineage of the North Frost Dynasty would already belong to the Ice Family!"
"However, the Ice Family has no ambitions for the throne. They only want to firmly control the Ice Blood Ginseng within the Icebound Mountain Range!"
"By using the competition, the Ice Family has expanded its connections with nurous strong ones. The outstanding disciples of the Seven Major Sects are honored guests of the Ice Family, while the princes and princesses of the Seventy-two Dynasties are their distinguished guests. Thus, the Ice Family is hailed as the number one family upon the Lingnan Continent!"
Lin Bai was startled and chuckled lightly, "The number one family of the Lingnan Continent! It seems the Ice Family is not a simple force."
Su Xiani said, "Therefore, if you plan on going to the North Frost Dynasty and et Zhao Hansheng at the Ice Family, think twice before trying to kill him. It would be best to consider the Ice Family’s stance. Otherwise, should you provoke their ire, even as a monstrous-level genius, surviving under their gaze and walking out of the North Frost Dynasty alive would be extrely difficult!"
Lin Bai nodded, "I will be careful."
Su Xiani added, "Alright, now that I’ve shared this news with you, I’ll take my leave."
Lin Bai said, "Sister Su, every ti you co to find . Can’t you leave a way to find you instead?"
Hearing this, Su Xiani replied bitterly, "Do you think I want it to be this way?"
"Lin Bai, do you think I enjoy running around every day, wandering and unsettled?"
"Do you think I wouldn’t prefer to settle down, find a quiet, scenic place, stop for a while, and enjoy the view?"
"But I can’t stop."
"Not only can I not stop, neither can my father, nor can those seniors... and even more so, you cannot stop!"
Su Xiani suddenly spoke earnestly to Lin Bai.
From Su Xiani’s tone, Lin Bai could hear the profound helplessness and sorrow.
Su Xiani solemnly said, "One day, when you find your parents and defeat those powerful enemies, only then can we all be free. Only then can we live under the sunlight with no shadows to fear!"
"But until then, we cannot stop..."
Lin Bai stared at Su Xiani blankly. At this mont, he seed to understand the weight she and her father, Su Yanhua, and even Lord of Purple Gold City, had been carrying.
Su Xiani left, departing from the Exile Land, and Lin Bai had no idea where she had gone.
But Lin Bai knew that if there ca a day when he faced a deadly tribulation again, she would surely appear!
After Su Xiani left, Tiehai Tang said, "Lin Bai, let accompany you to the North Frost Dynasty."
Lin Bai pushed aside the sadness on his face and smiled at Tiehai Tang. "This Exile Land is the gift I gave you. Are you really willing to so easily give it up?"
"Right after I annihilated the Three Great Families, this is precisely your chance to dominate in the Exile Land. Why leave with ? Aren’t you reluctant?"
Lin Bai asked with a faint smile.
Tiehai Tang’s beautiful eyes flickered as she firmly declared, "For you, this re Exile Land is nothing!"
Lin Bai took a deep breath and smiled, "Hai Tang, if you truly wish to help , then stay. Stay in the Exile Land and solidify your cultivation there..."
"You heard what Sister Su said. The enemies I’ll soon face are likely to be the pinnacle of Lingnan Continent. If you lack absolute strength, following will only lead to certain death!"
Lin Bai said to Tiehai Tang.
Tiehai Tang’s face was marked with bitterness. She lowered her head with so displeasure but had paid heed to Su Xiani’s words, laden with helplessness. She knew that both her and Lin Bai’s current strengths were indeed lacking.
"Alright!"
"I will stay!"
"But Lin Bai, I’m not staying for the cultivation resources of this Exile Land. I’m staying for you, so I can better assist you in the future!"
"If you suffer outside and need soone to confide in, co to the Exile Land and find anyti."
Tiehai Tang gazed at Lin Bai with deep affection as she spoke.
Lin Bai nodded slightly. What he didn’t know, however, was that after all these years, Tiehai Tang’s feelings for him had remained unchanged.
"Hai Tang, currently, Lingdong is entirely under Bai Xiaoxiao’s Shenwu Kingdom’s control. She has already begun laying plans within the Feiyun Dynasty, and I believe it won’t be long before she takes full control of Feiyun."
"I leave you with a strand of Sword Qi. If, in the future, you need help and can’t find , take this Sword Qi to Bai Xiaoxiao. Once she recognizes it, she will provide you with all the help you need!"
As he spoke, Lin Bai withdrew a strand of Devouring Sword Qi and handed it to Tiehai Tang.
Tiehai Tang accepted it without hesitation.
To Lin Bai’s knowledge, Bai Xiaoxiao was the only person he knew who was aware that he possessed the Devouring Sword Spirit. She was also the only one who understood the feud between Lin Bai and the Giant God Clan!
And Bai Xiaoxiao was the only person who could recognize Lin Bai’s Devouring Sword Qi!
"What is your relationship with Bai Xiaoxiao..." After receiving the Sword Qi, Tiehai Tang lowered her head as if lost in thought. After a fierce struggle in her heart, she timidly asked.
"She is the most important person in my life," Lin Bai answered firmly.
"Oh." Hearing this, Tiehai Tang looked sowhat dejected.
Lin Bai said, "You are also the most important person in my life."
Upon hearing this, Tiehai Tang felt much happier. She raised her head, beaming with a radiant smile, and replied, "I understand, but don’t say it so sentintally!"
"Hehe."
Tiehai Tang let out a silly, joyful laugh.
"The journey to the North Frost Dynasty is long and arduous. I must set out now. While you’re in the Exile Land, you must be cautious of the Holy Kingdom of Thousands Demons. Do you understand?" Lin Bai said earnestly.
"Don’t worry. Stop worrying about . I’ve been used to living in the jungle since I was a child. This place is my domain. Even if the Demon Clan cos, if I can’t defeat them, I have ways to escape!" Tiehai Tang nodded.
"That’s good."
Lin Bai gave a small nod before departing from the Exile Land.
Tiehai Tang escorted Lin Bai all the way to the edge of the Exile Land. She watched as he stepped onto his flying sword and disappeared into the clouds. Her eyes were filled with reluctance and a tender affection.
But as soon as Tiehai Tang saw Lin Bai’s figure vanish completely into the horizon, she turned to face the Exile Land. Her gaze turned sharp, and at that mont, she seed to transform once more into the cold and ruthless hunter of the jungle!
"Lin Bai, don’t worry. I won’t drag you down again. The next ti we et, you’ll see a Tiehai Tang ten tis stronger than the one you know now!" Tiehai Tang strode towards the Exile Land, her entire body emanating an aura that coalesced into the shape of a dragon...
This dragon-shaped aura spread outward, causing all the demon beasts within thousands of miles to tremble uncontrollably, shivering with fear...
