Sword Emperor of the Astonishing Sky

"Princess Qingyue, is he more important than you?" Lin Bai asked back, with a smile on his lips.

When the twenty-first prince heard these words, his complexion suddenly changed, his face was as pale as earth, and his face was extremely ugly.

He didn't expect...the person Lin Bai wanted to see was actually Princess Qingyue.

Huhu... The twenty-first prince had a straight face, his chest heaved, trying his best to suppress the anger in his heart, "Give me back that sword!"

The twenty-first prince tried hard to suppress his anger for a long time, and then asked Lin Bai for the sword.

"What sword?" Lin Bai asked with a frown.

"Stop pretending!" The twenty-first prince raised his sword eyebrows, "Yuewu has already said that the sword fell into your hands."

The twenty-first prince said coldly: "Master Langhou, return that sword to me. You should know that the origin of that sword is not simple. If you are not strong enough, keeping it in your hands will only cause you more trouble." .”

"Give him back to me, and I will hand him over to the royal family, and then everything will be safe!"

The twenty-first prince felt a little aggrieved when he mentioned that sword... Who would have thought that such an ordinary, top-grade Taoist weapon would have such a huge treasure behind it?

The twenty-first prince just didn't know the origin of the sword at that time. Otherwise, how could he give the sword to Yuewu girl at will?

Lin Bai chuckled lightly and glanced sideways at the twenty-first prince, "I quite agree with your highness's words."

"If it is not strong enough, this sword will cause endless trouble."

"So, it is safer to leave this sword with me than with Your Highness."

Lin Bai stared at the twenty-first prince again and said, "There is nothing wrong with being a free king. When you have nothing to do, you can listen to music and dance, enjoy the scenery, and draw pictures."

"Sometimes, I envy the status of the twenty-first prince."

"If you want a woman, countless women in the entire empire will rush to climb into your bed."

"If you want skills, the imperial family has countless magical powers and secrets for him to practice."

"You want status. You are already the prince of the royal family. Even if you don't have real power, not many people in the entire Chu Kingdom would dare to go against you."

"If the sky falls, Emperor Chu will naturally hold it up."

"Carefree and happy like a god."

Lin Bai shook his head, "If I don't want to be here, I will be doomed to a lifetime of hard work."

"Your Highness, just live well. You won't care about anything that happens in the Imperial Capital next."

"You just need to close the door of the palace, close the doors and windows tightly, don't listen to the rumors in the imperial capital, and just make waves in the palace, and the royal family will naturally protect you from worries in your life."

"As for that sword... His Highness doesn't have to be in its mind. This matter is beyond His Highness's control."

"With that said, I'll take my leave."

After finishing speaking, Lin Bai bowed his hands, turned around and walked out of the palace.

"Lin Bai, stop!"

Seeing that Lin Bai was about to leave, Prince Twenty-one hurriedly called out twice more, but Lin Bai still did not stop and left straight away.

Looking at Lin Bai's leaving figure, Prince Twenty-one narrowed his eyes and the muscles at the corners of his eyes twitched.

"Your Highness." Girl Yuewu came to the twenty-first prince's side and gently touched his chest with her jade hand, "Your Highness, calm down."

After the twenty-one prince took two sharp breaths, he finally lamented, "Master Langhou, he is indeed a dragon and a phoenix among men."

"It seems that that sword... I won't come back."

Moon Dancer's eyes were filled with tears and she blamed herself: "It's all my fault, I shouldn't have given this sword to Lord Langhou."

"I don't blame you." Prince Twenty-one rubbed Yue Wu's head lovingly and said with a smile, "If I had known that the sword had such an extraordinary origin, I would not have given it to you."

"After I gave this sword to you, it put you in a desperate situation. It's my fault."

The twenty-first prince shook his head and said: "It doesn't matter now... If this sword falls into the hands of Lord Lang, the royal family will naturally find a way to deal with Lord Lang."

"Right now, I'm just going to do what Lord Lang said... close the door of the palace, close the windows tightly, and don't listen to the news in the imperial capital."

The twenty-first prince gave a bitter smile and glanced at the Yuewu girl, "Mr. Langhou is right, there is nothing wrong with being a free king and being carefree."

"Come on, come on!"

"The wine is filled, then the music is played, and then the dancing begins."

The twenty-first prince reclined on the recliner, and musicians came out from the corridors on both sides to play sweet music.

The moon dancing girl returned to the round stage and danced in an enchanting way to the music.

Before Lin Bai walked out of the twenty-first prince's palace, he heard the music coming from the waterside pavilion. It seemed that the twenty-first prince had thought about it.

"It's great to be a free king." Lin Bai sighed with emotion, "If I have an afterlife, I also want to be a free king."

Lin Bai smiled self-deprecatingly and looked back at the waterside pavilion. "I hope the twenty-first prince has really figured it out. The dispute between the Chu Kingdom and the Demon Realm is not something he can participate in."

"It's good to be a free king."

Lin Bai shook his head, quickly walked out of the palace, and went straight to the eldest princess's palace without stopping.

Princess Qingyue's government office is located not far from the imperial city.

Compared with other royal palaces, the eldest princess's palace is much quieter and simpler.

There are no extremely luxurious furnishings outside the government office, and there are no grand attics inside the government office.

After walking through the gate and walking along the cobblestone road, I saw that the furnishings in the mansion were extremely simple.

This seems to be a thatched house located in the prosperous imperial capital, with a hint of tranquility secluded from the world amid the bustle.

When Lin Bai decided to visit the eldest princess, he asked his ancestor Pan Qing about the origin of the eldest princess.

Princess Qingyue is the biological sister of the current Emperor of Chu. She is also a person who lived thousands of years ago. She is a person of the same era as the ancestor Pan Qing.

Lin Bai remembered... when he mentioned the Qingyue Princess to his ancestor Pan Qing, there was a hint of fire in his eyes.

He said something very serious to Lin Bai. He said... Princess Qingyue was once an unparalleled beauty in thousands of years.

Thousands of years ago, she was also a peerless beauty who made all the warriors from the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm bow down.

But unfortunately, something happened later, causing the eldest princess to lock herself up and stop interfering in worldly affairs.

Lin Bai asked what happened, and the ancestor Pan hesitated and said... It seemed that the eldest princess fell in love with a man, but this man turned out to be from the Jiuyou Demon Palace.

After the Emperor of Chu investigated the matter and obtained the royal family's permission, he executed the man.

This angered the eldest princess and severed relations with Emperor Chu.

After the eldest princess was heartbroken, she locked up the house and stopped interfering in human affairs.

Except for one maid, there are no other servants in the eldest princess' mansion.

Lin Bai came to the yamen of the eldest princess's mansion. After being greeted by the maid, he walked into the mansion.

The back garden of the government office is like a big mountain. There are two thatched houses built in the mountain. In front of the house is a cold blue pool.

At this moment, there is a woman in white, who looks like a mortal fairy, sitting cross-legged by the pond.

The misty green smoke in the cold pool makes the woman in white look like a dream, like an immortal or a god.

The maid then led Lin Bai to the cold pool, raised her hands and said, "Your Highness, Lord Wolf Marquis has arrived."

Lin Bai took a step forward and bowed his hands, "Lin Bai, the holy son of the Tianshui Sect, has met the eldest princess Qingyue."
