The Unparalleled Sword Emperor-Chapter 2541 - 2516: The Maiden

"Such an impressive movement technique..." Cui Qing’s eyes flashed. As the high priest of the Heishan Tribe, his cultivation was naturally profound and unfathomable. In the instant when Lin Bai and Rong Quan exchanged blows, Cui Qing naturally saw that Lin Bai’s movement technique was superb.

"Indeed, it’s simply astonishing," Fang Dehao also remarked in surprise.

Cui Qing said coldly, "If Rong Quan continues recklessly fighting with Dongfang Bai, he’s bound to suffer greatly!"

Fang Dehao said solemnly, "That’s right. If Dongfang Bai had used a sword just now, that strike would have been enough to kill Rong Quan. It seems that there’s still a big gap between the Heishan Tribe’s Tianjiao and the warriors of the Broken Sword Tribe."

Cui Qing shook his head and said, "No! I think Dongfang Bai is likely not an ordinary warrior of the Broken Sword Tribe..."

Fang Dehao exclaimed in surprise, "High Priest, why is that? If Dongfang Bai is not an ordinary warrior, then who is he?"

Cui Qing said coldly, "Dongfang Bai is likely a warrior of the Black Sword Hall of the Broken Sword Tribe!"

Hearing this, Fang Dehao turned pale with fright, "Black Sword Hall..."

"Isn’t it suicidal for Rong Quan to fight him?"

"High Priest, Rong Quan is already blinded by rage, and if the fight continues, Dongfang Bai might inadvertently kill him. What should we do then!"

Fang Dehao said anxiously.

In the field, Rong Quan touched his back with his hand, blood dripping, and he was instantly infuriated, his eyes turning blood-red. He glared at Lin Bai and roared, "How dare you injure me! Today, I will make sure you die!"

As he spoke, Rong Quan charged at Lin Bai with a roar.

The Fierce Tiger Raging Mountain Claw erupted with all its power in Rong Quan’s hand, surging toward Lin Bai unstoppably.

Lin Bai chuckled coldly, brandishing a tree branch and striking Rong Quan.

Smack, smack, smack—

Each time Lin Bai’s branch fell, another bloody welt appeared on Rong Quan’s body.

Instantly, Rong Quan was covered in blood.

"Too slow!"

"Too weak!"

"Too sluggish!"

"..."

"Too slow, too weak, too sluggish..."

Each time Lin Bai’s branch came down, a voice echoed.

"Ahhh..." Rong Quan screamed as Lin Bai continued to beat him, suffering greatly, his body stained red with blood, which even dripped down his legs to form bloody footprints on the ground!

The crowd looked on in surprise, seeing over thirty bloody welts on Rong Quan’s body.

If Lin Bai had used a sword, Rong Quan would have been cut to pieces by now.

"I will kill you! I will kill you! I will kill you..." Rong Quan, blinded by fury, continuously roared and charged at Lin Bai.

Lin Bai shook his head helplessly, raising the branch to continue the beating.

Just then, a fragrant breeze wafted by.

Lin Bai looked up to see a white-robed woman suddenly appear before him, snatching Rong Quan away from under his branch.

This woman was indeed the one who had just been seated in the chairs.

Once caught by her, Rong Quan angrily shouted, "Ding Zhujiu, let me go! I must kill him today!"

The white-robed woman said coldly, "Rong Quan, you should give up. Look at your injuries. If you continue fighting, you might not even force him to draw his sword. You’ll just be beaten to death by his branch."

"Do you not feel ashamed yet?"

The white-robed woman said coldly.

At this moment, Rong Quan regained some sense, looking horrified at the wounds on his body.

Seeing Rong Quan calm down, the white-robed woman cupped her hands toward Lin Bai and said, "I’m sorry for spoiling your mood."

Lin Bai smiled and said, "No problem!"

Having said that, Lin Bai tossed the branch to the ground and turned back to the chairs.

The white-robed woman also returned to the chairs.

Feeling too humiliated, Rong Quan swept his sleeves and left the banquet.

Cui Qing felt extremely embarrassed and, after apologizing to Lin Bai for a moment, arranged for a warrior to take Lin Bai to his lodging. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Lin Bai did not refuse, and with Rong Quan’s interruption, the banquet naturally came to an end.

Lin Bai arrived at the lodging arranged by Cui Qing and rested.

"This is the place, called Fengyue Residence. It is a special place used by our Heishan Tribe to entertain distinguished guests."

"Please, Lord Dongfang, feel at home here."

A warrior led Lin Bai to Fengyue Residence.

Lin Bai looked up at the elegant and serene pavilion built by the lake’s edge and was quite pleased, saying with a smile, "Thank you for leading the way."

The warrior gave a fist salute and left.

Lin Bai turned and walked up Fengyue Residence, glancing around.

He then proceeded to the second floor.

As soon as he stepped onto the second floor, he sensed someone in the room.

"Hmm? Is someone living here?"

Lin Bai frowned slightly.

Soon, the door on the second floor opened, revealing a delicate young girl standing inside.

Before Lin Bai could speak, the girl shyly said, "You must be Lord Dongfang!"

Lin Bai nodded slightly, "Apologies, I didn’t know someone was living here. It’s my fault for intruding; I’ll take my leave."

With that, Lin Bai turned to head downstairs.

But just as he did, the girl called out, "Lord Dongfang, please stay. The High Priest sent me to tidy up the room for you!"

Lin Bai realized and paused, not leaving.

The girl said, "Very few guest warriors stay in our Heishan Tribe, so Fengyue Residence has been vacant for a long time. The High Priest sent me to clean up."

"Please come in, Lord Dongfang, I’ll have it ready shortly."

With that, the girl entered the room.

Lin Bai responded, "Thank you, then."

Following her, Lin Bai also entered the room.

The girl prepared the bedding on the bed, tidied the room impeccably, with a light fragrance lingering in the air.

Soon, the girl finished cleaning the room and said to Lin Bai, "Tonight, I will stand guard outside. If you need anything, just call me."
