Sword Emperor of the Astonishing Sky

Lin Bai hurriedly brought the topic back: "I wonder why Mr. Jiang Zhen came here? But His Highness Prince Chen wants to summon me?"

Jiang Zhen smiled and said: "Brother Lin Bai, His Highness Prince Chen learned from Master Zhu Mo that Brother Lin Bai was injured in Xuanfeng City. He was particularly worried and even couldn't sleep at night."

"His Royal Highness King Chen originally wanted to come and visit in person, but he didn't expect that today there are so many trivial matters that he can't be distracted. That's why he specially asked me to come and visit on his behalf today."

"No, His Highness Prince Chen has prepared some healing elixirs for Brother Lin Bai!"

"Come here, bring the treasure."

While Jiang Zhen was speaking, he clapped his hands, and a group of graceful young women outside the hall came in with gentle butterfly steps and graceful figures, dragging a jade plate.

There were a total of eighteen women, dragging eighteen jade plates in their hands.

On each jade plate, there are various treasures.

Lin Bai was stunned for a moment, looking at all this in confusion.

Jiang Zhen coughed lightly, took out the gift list from his long sleeves, and said loudly: "His Royal Highness King Chen rewarded Lin Bai, a disciple of the Tianshui Sect, with a top-grade Taoist weapon 'Qingfeng Sword' and a top-grade Taoist weapon 'Dragon Pattern Treasure Armor'. Pieces, one ten-thousand-year-old blood ginseng, ten nine-turn phantom elixirs, and one hundred immortal dragon elixirs..."

Jiang Zhen slowly finished reading the rewards on the gift list, and then smiled and said to Lin Bai: "His Royal Highness Chen also said that it is inconvenient to carry many treasures outside the imperial capital at the moment. When he returns to the imperial capital, there will be other rewards. Send it."

Lin Bai looked confused when he heard about the reward.

He also couldn't understand why Chu Junyou gave him so many treasures for no reason?

"Brother Lin Bai, thank you." Jiang Zhen finished reading the gift list and when he saw Lin Bai didn't respond, he reminded him in a low voice.

Only then did Lin Bai come to his senses, cupped his hands in thanks and said, "Thank you, His Highness King Chen, for the generous gift."

Jiang Zhen smiled with satisfaction and said: "Nine-turn Magic Spirit Pill and Immortal Dragon Pill are both excellent healing materials. His Highness King Chen specifically asked me to tell Brother Lin Bai that there is no need to be reluctant to use it, just take it. Take it to heal your wounds, and if you still need it, send me a letter and I’ll send it over immediately.”

The third elder reminded in a low voice at this moment: "The Nine Revolutions Phantom Spirit Pill and the Immortal Dragon Pill are both magical elixirs refined by Tianji Pavilion. They are specially used by the royal family of the Chu Kingdom. Even the ministers of the dynasty who are below the third grade Ministers have no right to use it.”

Lin Bai could see that these two elixirs seemed to be valuable.

But Lin Bai didn't know that these two elixirs were basically in a priceless and unmarketable situation.

Jiang Zhen smiled and said: "His Royal Highness King Chen has ordered Brother Lin Bai to heal his injuries. If you have any questions, I will talk about it after your injuries get better."

"Of course, if Brother Lin Bai wants to see His Highness King Chen, he can do so at any time."

Lin Bai nodded and said, "I understand."

Jiang Zhen chatted with Lin Bai for a long time, and his mood made both the third elder and Zheng Yuan feel particularly abnormal.

Why does he respect Lin Bai so much?

Finally, Jiang Zhen left the sound transmission token for Lin Bai and then left the manor.

After Jiang Zhen left.

The third elder and Zheng Yuan couldn't wait to ask.

Zheng Yuan asked: "Lin Bai, why did His Highness King Chen reward you with so many treasures? The other treasures are not important, especially the dragon-patterned armor, the Nine Transformations Phantom Spirit Pill and the Immortal Dragon Pill. They are all priceless treasures. , something that even money can’t buy in the outside world.”

Lin Bai smiled wryly, shrugged, and said, "I don't know either."

The third elder frowned and asked, "Did you bring back some news from Xuanfeng City? That's why His Highness King Chen will reward you?"

Lin Bai smiled bitterly again and said, "I don't know either."

Lin Bai didn't know anything about it, so he pretended to be stupid until the end.

The third elder sighed softly: "Since it is a reward from His Highness King Chen, then you should accept it and deal with it easily. It just so happens that you are injured, and the Nine Revolutions Phantom Spirit Pill and the Immortal Dragon Pill are both excellent healing materials. Just what you need today."

"Go down and heal."

Lin Bai cupped his hands, put away all the treasures, turned and left the front hall.

After Lin Bai also left.

Zheng Yuan and the third elder looked at each other, with a strange expression on the faces of the two old foxes.

"Did you see it?" Zheng Yuan spoke first and said gloomily: "His Royal Highness King Chen is recruiting Lin Bai."

The third elder smiled and said: "Since you know that His Highness Prince Chen is recruiting Lin Bai, why do you still have such an ugly face?"

"His Royal Highness Chen, by recruiting Lin Bai, isn't he recruiting our Tianshui Sect?"

"This may be a good thing for our Tianshui Sect!"

Zheng Yuan gave a bitter smile and said: "Third Elder, I want to correct what you said, it is 'in the long run, it is a good thing', but in the short term, it may not be a good thing."

The third elder took a deep breath and sighed quietly: "Elder Zheng Yuan, I know your concerns. If you participate in the Chu Kingdom's seizure of the throne too early, you will be suppressed in advance, which will only make Tianshui Sect sink into a muddy whirlpool, making it difficult to escape. "

"But you must also understand the current situation of Tianshui Sect."

"Today's sect is getting weaker and weaker. There are internal troubles inside and powerful enemies outside. It is a troubled time."

"Since the decline of Tianshui Sect, there are no more available people in the Chu Dynasty. Even the Chu Dynasty no longer regards Tianshui Sect as one of the 'Five Families and Seven Sects'."

"Since His Highness King Chen wants to recruit Lin Bai, maybe we can use Lin Bai as a stepping stone to get Tianshui Sect on the line with Chu State again."

Zheng Yuan's eyes were gloomy and he said: "What the third elder means...to let it go? Let His Highness King Chen win over Lin Bai? And our Tianshui Sect still wants to make a statement and stand on His Highness King Chen's side?"

"You have to think clearly, the third prince is not easy to mess with!"

The third elder said: "Elder Zheng Yuan, don't be so pessimistic about things. Let Lin Bai contact His Highness King Chen first, which can be regarded as a way out for Tianshui Sect. If His Highness King Chen takes control of the overall situation, then we will just Just wait for the opportunity."

Zheng Yuan nodded, but his face was still gloomy: "His Royal Highness Chen is recruiting Lin Bai. I suggest that you report it to the sect and ask the sect master and the elders to discuss and decide together."

"This matter may seem small, but it actually involves a lot."

"When necessary, I think we should ask the Supreme Elder to come forward and take charge of the overall situation."

The third elder nodded and said: "Okay, just follow what Elder Zheng Yuan said and report this matter to the sect."

The two elders discussed the matter as if no one else was watching.

The third elder laughed meaningfully: "Lin Bai, you have really brought too many opportunities to the sect, and also brought many challenges. Perhaps the day when the sect will rise again is not far away."

After hearing the third elder's words, Bai Yifei's face became extremely gloomy.

He gradually felt that the senior elders of the sect had begun to favor Lin Bai.

Originally, Bai Yifei was the most valued disciple by the sect's senior leaders, and he was originally the first choice for the Holy Son.

But since Lin Bai appeared, Bai Yifei felt that the sect began to pay more attention to Lin Bai.

Especially when Bai Yifei spent a lot of resources and failed to break through the Taiyi Dao Fruit, the sect was even more disappointed.

He came here today originally because he wanted to make friends with His Highness Prince Chen through Jiang Zhen.

As a result, Jiang Zhen sneered at him and ignored him at all.

On the contrary, he showed great respect to Lin Bai, and his tone and posture of speaking were extremely humble.

This also made Bai Yifei feel particularly uncomfortable.

Bai Yifei was so angry that he clenched his fists, his face was ferocious, and he gritted his teeth, as if he and Lin Bai had a grudge against killing his father.
