Sword Emperor of the Astonishing Sky

"When did the Zhao family and the Li family become so generous?"

Lin Bai asked curiously.

Ancestor Zhang Bailiu said: "After the third prince withdrew from seizing the throne, they thought that the situation was over, so naturally they wanted to find ways to show their favor to His Highness Prince Chen."

"You are now a popular figure in front of His Majesty King Chen and His Majesty Emperor Chu. Naturally, they will not dare to go against you anymore."

Lin Bai suddenly understood and smiled slightly.

Ancestor Zhang Bailiu continued: "Li Mo, the holy son of the Li family, and Zhao Xiantu, the holy son of the Zhao family, both have similar thoughts. They just want to repair their relationship with you."

"After all, you are helping His Highness Prince Chen, and they are helping the Third Prince. In the final analysis, there is no deep hatred. They are just political enemies."

"Now that the third prince has fallen, there is no need for you to continue fighting."

Things in the officialdom of Chu State were a bit elusive to Lin Bai, and he didn't want to ask.

I just said to my ancestor Zhang Bailiu: "Although Li Mo and Zhao Xiantu have the name of the Holy Son, they do not have the strength of the Holy Son. They are people who are just trying to gain fame. I don't want to have too much entanglement with them."

"I will not accept any invitations sent by the Li family and Zhao family. I will not go to any banquet hosted by them."

Hearing Lin Bai's words, ancestor Zhang Bailiu felt a little embarrassed.

Lin Bai then asked: "Ancestor, do you still have any concerns?"

The ancestor Zhang Bailiu said: "After all, the Li family and the Zhao family are families that have been inherited for hundreds of thousands of years. It is extremely difficult to destroy them!"

"And our Tianshui Sect is affiliated to one of the seven sects of the Five Families of Chu State. We sit on the same seat as them, so we can't see each other without looking up!"

"If it is a banquet held by them, we will not participate at all. We are afraid that there will be hatred, which will also be particularly detrimental to Tianshui Sect."

Lin Bai frowned and thought about it seriously, thinking that his ancestor Zhang Bailiu was right.

Even if he doesn't like the two saints of the Li family and the Zhao family, after all, the Li family and the Zhao family are still one of the five and seven sects of Chu State.

Not giving face like this will only make the relationship between Tianshui Sect and them worse and worse, and eventually give rise to an unsolvable grudge similar to the Heaven and Earth Sect.

Lin Bai said: "Just because I don't want to go doesn't mean other Tianshui Sect disciples can't go!"

"The invitations sent by the Li family and Zhao family, let Bai Yifei and Zhou Xinjun attend on my behalf."

Ancestor Zhang Bailiu nodded with a smile: "The Holy Son's arrangement is the best thing."

Lin Bai asked again: "Are there any other invitations?"

Ancestor Zhang Bailiu was stunned for a moment and asked: "It seems that the Holy Son is sure that someone else has sent invitations."

Lin Bai smiled and did not answer.

The famous sects and families in the imperial capital are not just the five and seven sects of Chu State, there are also six powerful forces staying in the imperial capital.

Wang Zhengyang of the Wansheng Mountain and Qi Lingyu of the Qitian Sect were both prosperous sects in the Eastern Region.

In addition, the most prosperous sects in the Southern Territory... Rong Yunxin of the Worm Valley in the Southern Territory, Ling Qi of the Wu Sect, Tuoba Xin of the Barbarian Sect, and Jiang Yu of the Shanhai Sect.

These people are all within the imperial capital.

Although they were kindly invited by the royal family to stay and participate in the engagement between Lin Bai and Miss Shen Xian, they all knew very well that they were forced to stay in the imperial capital by the royal family and could not leave.

They were also anxious, and they must also want to find ways to find out some news.

They must be eager to get on the line with Lin Bai, so Lin Bai is sure that they will send invitations.

Ancestor Zhang Bailiu said with a smile: "The six holy sons of the most prosperous sect have already sent invitations, and some even came to visit in person."

They would send invitations, which was within Lin Bai's mind, but Lin Bai didn't expect that someone would come to visit him?

"Who came to visit?" Lin Bai asked curiously.

"I'm afraid the Holy Son will never be able to guess who is coming." The ancestor Zhang Bailiu looked at him and asked with a smile.

Someone you'd never guess? ... Lin Bai was stunned for a moment and tentatively named a name: "Jiang Yu, the Holy Son of Shanhaizong?"

The first person Lin Bai thought of was Jiang Yu, the holy son of Shanhaizong. This man was rich in strategy, farsightedness, and the city was extremely deep. He was not so easy to deal with.

If there is anyone who cares most about the affairs in the imperial capital, apart from the two saints from the Eastern Region, it is the saint Jiang Yu.

Ancestor Zhang Bailiu shook his head and said: "It's not him!"

Lin Bai frowned: "Who could that be?"

He really couldn't imagine who else would come to visit.

Ancestor Zhang Bailiu sighed softly: "So I said... the person who comes to visit is someone the Holy Son would never expect."

"Rong Yunxin of the Worm Valley in Southern Xinjiang!"

"she?"

Lin Bai was really surprised when he heard that Rong Yunxin, the saint of the Worm Valley in Southern Xinjiang, came to visit him.

Although the relationship between him and Southern Xinjiang Worm Valley is not on the same level, it is not an easy-to-resolve grudge.

Even within the hunting world, the Southern Border Worm Valley colluded with the warriors in the Southern Territory to kill Lin Bai.

Why are they still willing to send a saint to visit him at this moment?

Lin Bai asked curiously: "What did Rong Yunxin say when he came to the door?"

Ancestor Zhang Bailiu shook his head silently: "She didn't say anything. After hearing that you were still in retreat, she didn't leave anything behind and left directly."

"So far, we still can't figure out what the intentions of Southern Xinjiang Worm Valley are."

Lin Bai frowned. He was also thinking about what the purpose of Southern Xinjiang Worm Valley's visit was.

If you think about it carefully, the strange poison used to capture the saint son and ancestor of the top sect was one of the seventy-five king poisons from the Worm Valley in southern Xinjiang.

Is it possible that Nanjiang Worm Valley intends to explain these things?

But this isn’t right either.

If Southern Xinjiang Worm Valley wanted to explain this matter, they should go to His Highness the Crown Prince, or perhaps the Emperor of Chu. There was no need to go to Lin Bai.

He couldn't figure it out, and Lin Bai didn't want to think about it.

The royal family will naturally think deeply about these things.

Lin Bai said: "Next, I will go into seclusion to break through to the realm of high-grade Taiyi Daoguo. If the seven sects and the six most prosperous sects of the Chu State send invitations, they will decline on my behalf."

"Tell them that after I leave the customs, I will come to apologize."

Ancestor Zhang Bailiu nodded and agreed, and Lin Bai applied for 300,000 immortal jade from the sect. At that time, he guessed that Lin Bai wanted to break through the realm of high-grade Taiyi Dao Fruit.

Now that he heard that Lin Bai was going to retreat, ancestor Zhang Bailiu was not surprised at all.

After all, at this moment, Chen Yule of the Chen family, Yi Song of the Tianxian Sect, Huang Qingyun of the Holy Lotus Palace, and even Shui Modan of the Danxia Sect have announced that they will be in retreat.

The saints and saints of the five families and seven sects are all taking the time to improve their cultivation. It is reasonable for Lin Bai to retreat and break through at this moment.

"The Holy Son can rest in peace and retreat, and I will naturally handle the other matters for you."

Ancestor Zhang Bailiu agreed.

The house where Lin Bai lived was destroyed while he was practicing sword formation. The ancestor Zhang Bailiu immediately arranged for other houses to allow Lin Bai to retreat in peace.

He also asked Qiao Mo and Qin Yao to guard the house to protect Lin Bai.
