The Unparalleled Sword Emperor

Lin Bai never expected that the person the East Continent Academy had invited would actually be Bai Xiaoxiao!

Chu Jiangliu stood behind Bai Xiaoxiao, smiled at Lin Bai, but he did not overstep, for now was not the time for Chu Jiangliu to flaunt himself!

Wu He, somewhat incredulous at the moment, asked, "Nine Elders, you previously told us there was a way to deal with the Demon Sect, could it be this woman?"

Wu He was somewhat angry; with the great battle imminent, the East Continent Academy seemed as if it was playing a joke on him!

Gu Daozhi nodded and said, "Previously, Emperor Xiao had once asked Li Jiuge to send us messages, speaking of some methods we thought could be utilized, so we invited Emperor Xiao to come personally!"

Li Jiuge now looked at Wu He and said, "Wu He, don’t underestimate Emperor Xiao. Although she is a woman, she is the reigning sovereign over the 180 Domains of the South Corner of the East Continent!"

"Even though she may not match your Great Witch Dynasty’s legacy of several thousand years, she is by no means an ordinary person!"

Li Jiuge coldly looked at Wu He as he spoke.

It seemed like Li Jiuge was angered upon hearing Wu He’s discontent with Bai Xiaoxiao, and he spoke in a cold tone.

Lin Bai spoke at this moment: "Since Emperor Xiao has a way to resolve the matter with the Demon Sect, please share your method, Emperor Xiao!"

Bai Xiaoxiao smiled faintly, took two steps forward, looked around the venue, and with a slight curve in her lips, she said softly, "I previously asked Li Jiuge to send messages about my plan!"

"In fact, my method is very simple!"

Gu Daozhi said, "Please, Emperor Xiao, elaborate in detail."

Bai Xiaoxiao nodded and said, "Alright!"

"It’s actually quite simple, the Demon Sect is starting a war in the East Continent!"

"Since it’s a war, we first need to figure out what exactly the Demon Sect wants!"

"In terms of a war, what they want could only be these few things... Territories, wealth, status, cultivation resources, beauty, power, and revenge!"

"So let’s go through them one by one!"

Bai Xiaoxiao spoke slowly.

Lin Bai, like the other warriors, was intently watching Bai Xiaoxiao.

Bai Xiaoxiao said, "First is the territories. The Demon Sect has launched wars within the Ten Great Dynasties and Nine Great Domains, occupying vast territories. But they don’t seem to have any intentions of keeping them!"

"So, the Demon Sect is not after territories!"

"Secondly, wealth. The Demon Sect has invaded extensively but hasn’t taken much wealth, so clearly the Demon Sect is not after wealth!"

"Thirdly, status. If the Demon Sect desired status, they could simply destroy one of the Ten Great Dynasties, and that would be enough to establish a place for themselves in the East Continent!"

"Clearly, they’re not after status either!"

"Fourthly, cultivation resources. I’ve seen the Demon Sect’s warriors; they almost always engage in internal conflicts within the territories, and the cultivation resources fall into the hands of the territory’s warriors!"

"They’re not after cultivation resources either!"

"Fifthly, beauty. There are so many disciples in the Demon Sect, so it’s clearly not for beauty!"

"Sixthly, power. That’s not possible either!"

"Excluding the previous reasons, that leaves only the last one!"

"The massive invasion of the East Continent by the Demon Sect is for revenge!"

Bai Xiaoxiao said lightly.

Lin Bai slightly nodded. Bai Xiaoxiao’s research on war far surpassed that of the warriors at the East Continent Academy.

Lin Bai completely agreed with Bai Xiaoxiao’s analysis.

Moreover, Lin Bai had obtained much information about the Demon Sect, finally confirming that the Demon Sect was seeking revenge and that the Demon Sect Master was merely using the Demon Sect as a cover for herself.

Upon hearing Bai Xiaoxiao, the warriors on the Order Divine Mountain frowned and nodded, thinking her words made sense.

Bai Xiaoxiao said, "If any of you have visited the destroyed territories and dynasties, you would notice that although the Demon Sect slaughtered extensively in those dynasties and territories, their targets were always the first family within the Ten Great Dynasties and Nine Great Domains!"

"So I reckon the Demon Sect’s true targets are the royal family of the Ten Great Dynasties and the first family in each of the Nine Great Domains!"

Bai Xiaoxiao stated firmly.

Wu He sneered at this moment: "Humph, our Ten Great Dynasties and Nine Great Domains have stood on the East Continent for thousands of years, provoking countless strong enemies. Even if you say she seeks revenge, there’s no reason!"

"But, the Demon Sect is targeting both the Ten Great Dynasties and Nine Great Domains simultaneously!"

"Could it be that all our Ten Great Dynasties and Nine Great Domains have offended the Demon Sect?"

Wu He refuted at this moment.

Bai Xiaoxiao said expressionlessly, "I haven’t finished speaking yet, why interrupt?"

Wu He snorted coldly without saying anything.

Bai Xiaoxiao looked at the Nine Elders and asked, "May I ask the Nine Elders a question?"

Gu Daozhi said, "Please speak, Emperor Xiao."

Bai Xiaoxiao said, "I have examined in the ancient books and found that there is enmity between the Demon Sect and the current East Continent Academy, is that correct?"

Gu Daozhi nodded and said, "Yes, that’s no secret; it’s merely that warriors of the East Continent avoid this topic, so few people mention it!"

"One hundred thousand years ago, the East Continent Academy and the Demon Sect were once part of a powerful sect on the East Continent called the God-Demon Sect."

"During the infight of that time, the Demon Sect was severely defeated and fled from the God-Demon Sea."

"And what was left of the Divine Sect became the current East Continent Academy!"

Gu Daozhi explained calmly.

Bai Xiaoxiao said, "That is interesting. If the Demon Sect is seeking revenge, shouldn’t they be directly targeting the Divine Sect instead of dealing with the Ten Great Dynasties and Nine Great Domains?"

"That’s what I haven’t been able to understand!"

Gu Daozhi nodded and said, "That is also our point of confusion. Observing the past, though the Demon Sect had made movements, they always targeted the East Continent Academy, never implicating the warriors of the East Continent!"

"But this time, they’re targeting the Ten Great Dynasties and Nine Great Domains."

"We at the Order Divine Court also haven’t figured it out."

Bai Xiaoxiao nodded and said, "Indeed, it is a very strange point."

At this moment, Lin Bai softly spoke, "Actually, solving this problem is not difficult!"

Bai Xiaoxiao and Gu Daozhi both looked toward Lin Bai.

Gu Daozhi asked, "Does the Saint have news?"

Bai Xiaoxiao also looked toward Lin Bai.

Lin Bai said, "If the Demon Sect was seeking revenge, naturally it would be aimed at the East Continent Academy; but what if it wasn’t the Demon Sect’s revenge?"

"Or perhaps... is someone merely using the guise of the Demon Sect to deceive others?" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Lin Bai spoke lightly.

Bai Xiaoxiao said, "You mean... someone within the Demon Sect wishes to use its name to disturb the East Continent, to achieve her own goals?"

Lin Bai nodded slightly: "Exactly."

Bai Xiaoxiao said, "That makes things easier, then Senior Gu Daozhi and all the Seniors of the Order Divine Court, can you tell us if the Ten Great Dynasties and the Nine Great Domains have ever jointly wronged someone?"

Bai Xiaoxiao looked towards Gu Daozhi and asked.

"Only by confirming this can I find a way to resolve the Demon Sect!"

Bai Xiaoxiao said resolutely.
