Sword Emperor of the Astonishing Sky

Although Plum Blossom Villa was not the top power in the Chu Kingdom, Lin Bai was not unfamiliar with this sect.

After all, as the top sect in the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm, there are some records in the secret files of the Chu State Zhao Criminal Division, and Lin Bai has also read them.

Plum Blossom Villa was a force that existed approximately 100,000 years ago. At that time, Plum Blossom Villa was not considered a top sect, but a small to medium-sized force.

It is said that the founder of Plum Blossom Villa was a strange man. He happened to pass by this mountain range one day and saw the snow-capped mountains and plum blossoms in bloom, so he stayed here for a few days.

Unexpectedly, this man actually enlightened under the plum blossom tree and created a set of sword techniques, which he named "Plum Blossom Sword Technique".

Later, after years of understanding and improvement by the founding master, "Plum Blossom Sword Technique" gradually became complete, thus transforming into the current secret Taoist inheritance of Meihua Villa.

Plum Blossom Sword Technique was therefore renamed "Nianhua Ancient Classic".

After the Nianhua ancient scripture was spread, many people in the All Saints Mountain area made fun of the Meihua Villa's Taoist inheritance as if it was a place for romance.

Then the founder of Plum Blossom Villa came out of seclusion in anger and swept across the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm with the unpredictable "Nianhua Ancient Sutra". At that time, he was also a famous and powerful person in the entire Eastern Region of the Demon Realm.

It was also from that time that outside warriors came to know that... the "Ancient Sutra of Nian Hua" in Plum Blossom Villa was not a tool for planting flowers and grass, but a truly powerful supernatural power.

From now on, no one dared to provoke Meihua Villa again.

The founder of Plum Blossom Villa took advantage of this prestige to occupy this mountain range and dug the mountain gate, thus creating the current Plum Blossom Villa.

But the good times didn't last long.

Even a genius as experienced as the founder of Plum Blossom Villa did not become an immortal in the end and had no choice but to perish.

Since the founder's death, Meihua Villa has been tepid. Although it has strength, it cannot be among the top sects and can only occupy a place among small and medium-sized families.

This phenomenon lasted for tens of thousands of years, until 100,000 years ago, Halloween Mountain took the lead in destroying the Jiuyou Demon Palace. As a small and medium-sized family in the territory of Halloween Mountain, Meihua Villa had no right to choose, and they had to obey Assignment of Halloween Mountain.

It was also during that battle that the ancestors of Plum Blossom Villa seized the opportunity and stole a large number of treasures. After the Jiuyou Demon Palace was destroyed, Plum Blossom Villa became the leader of the All Saints Mountain territory in just ten thousand years. Top sect.

Logically speaking... Plum Blossom Villa has stolen the opportunity to destroy the Nine Nether Demon Palace, so it should be glorious again.

But that's not the case.

After the destruction of the Nine Nether Demon Palace a hundred thousand years ago, Plum Blossom Villa did usher in a brief period of glory, but soon fell into decline again.

Later, after several generations of hard work, although Plum Blossom Villa was not kicked out of the top sects, it could only be ranked at the bottom among the eight top sects of Wansheng Mountain.

This situation continues to this day.

After Lin Bai met the sect master of Meihua Villa, all the information about Meihua Villa immediately appeared in his mind.

"It's really like a whale falling out of the sky."

"The destruction of the Nine Nether Demon Palace a hundred thousand years ago created countless small and medium-sized families, many top sects, and even two peak powers!"

Today, Lin Bai felt a wave of fear because of how powerful the Nine Nether Demon Palace was back then.

Just after the destruction of the Nine Nether Demon Palace, other sect families gained a little benefit, which was enough to bring their family and sect to a new level.

Just that little benefit is enough to change the future of a family and sect.

It is conceivable that the Nine Nether Demon Palace back then was so powerful. It is no wonder that there are rumors in the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm... "The Nine Nether Demon Palace back then almost unified the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm."

The contemporary sect master of Meihua Villa is named "Huamei", which is the word plum blossom reversed. Outside warriors usually call him the sect leader Mei.

"Should I call you Sect Master Mei now? Or should I call you Palace Master of the Nine Nether Demon Palace?"

Lin Bai looked at the middle-aged man in front of him. He was the contemporary sect leader of Plum Blossom Villa.

At this moment, he looked at Lin Bai with a smile, waved his hands and said, "No, no, no, Prince Qin has misunderstood. The little old man is just running errands for the Demon Palace, not the master of the Demon Palace."

Lin Bai was stunned for a moment.

He originally thought that the Nine Nether Demon Palace was cloaked in the guise of Plum Blossom Villa, and that the master of Plum Blossom Villa should be the palace master of the Nine Nether Demon Palace.

But I didn't expect that Sect Master Mei actually said... that he was just running errands for the Demon Palace, and that there was someone else who was the real master of the palace.

Lin Bai was speechless for a moment.

At this moment, a young man in rich attire came out from behind Sect Master Mei and looked at Lin Bai with a smile.

"Prince Qin, we meet again."

"It's just that the situation this time is different. When I met Prince Qin in the imperial capital, Prince Qin showed off his sharp edge. The sharp edge of that peerless genius was so dazzling that it was difficult to look directly at him."

"But now Prince Qin...has become a prisoner!"

Although this man spoke with a smile, Lin Bai could also hear the sarcasm and ridicule in his words.

Lin Bai glanced sideways at him and recognized this person as Hua Qianshu, the Holy Son of Plum Blossom Villa.

"Haha." Lin Bai glanced at Hua Qianshu, then looked at Ji Canghai beside him, and said: "There is no way, Jiuyou Demon Palace is willing to dispatch a high-ranking elder, and he is also the chief helmsman of the Seven Nights Divine Sect Territory Branch Lord, come and invite me to be a guest in Jiuyou Demon Palace."

"I have to give you some face no matter what."

Lin Bai's words were very simple. He was clearly mocking the Nine Nether Demon Palace for bullying the small ones. If Ji Canghai hadn't taken action, relying on the sons of gods from the nine major temples of the Nine Nether Demon Palace, he would have been unable to do anything to Lin Bai.

After the birthday of Emperor Chu of the Chu Kingdom, most of the saints from the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm were captured by the Northern Region and the Nine Nether Demon Palace and were taken to the Northern Region.

As the Holy Son of Plum Blossom Villa, Hua Qianshu was naturally among them.

But now that Lin Bai learned about the relationship between Meihua Villa and Jiuyou Demon Palace, he naturally understood that Hua Qianshu could not go to the Northern Territory.

Ji Canghai said expressionlessly: "This is not the place to talk, come with me!"

Sect Leader Mei also nodded repeatedly: "I remember that Prince Qin has some friendship with the goddess Li Guxian of the Ninth Temple. It just so happens that the goddess Li Guxian is also in the villa at this moment. If Prince Qin is free, you can go and meet her."

In the past few days, while talking and joking, Lin Bai was led towards the forbidden area in the back mountain of Meihua Villa, with disciples guarding him along the way.

But after seeing Ji Canghai and Sect Leader Mei, they did not stop them and allowed them to pass.

While walking on the mountain road, Lin Bai discovered some clues.

Ji Canghai was at the forefront, and it was obvious that he was the main group of people.

Lin Bai followed behind Ji Canghai, while Sect Master Mei and Hua Qianshu, as well as the other elders and ancestors of Meihua Villa, walked at the back with Sect Master Mei.

This obviously shows that the status of Sect Leader Mei and Hua Qianshu in Jiuyou Demon Palace is far inferior to that of Ji Canghai.

No wonder Ji Canghai didn't even smile when he saw Sect Leader Mei.
