The Unparalleled Sword Emperor

Within the Southern War Zone, a land of scorched earth, wolf smoke rises all around.

The Demon Sect martial artists are killing fanatically, charging into the Southern War Zone, killing whoever they meet, and robbing whatever they see. Anyone not dressed in black robes is almost certain to meet their end when encountered!

On the first day, Gu Daozhi sat inside Heavenly Destiny Pass and said coldly: "Just received news, the second line has also been destroyed. The Demon Sect is expected to appear under Heavenly Destiny Pass by tomorrow evening!"

"Emperor Xiao...!"

Gu Daozhi looked at Bai Xiaoxiao!

Bai Xiaoxiao deeply inhaled at that moment and said: "Let the warriors of Heavenly Destiny Pass prepare for battle!"

Gu Daozhi slammed the table, stood up, and said: "Pass the order, all warriors of the East Continent Academy prepare for battle with all their strength!"

Inside the Great Hall, all the strong ones and Quasi Holy Sons of the East Continent Academy had a thick layer of gloom on their faces.

This battle leaves no room for retreat!

Inside Heavenly Destiny Pass, all warriors swiftly gathered their spirit, awaiting the start of the final battle!

On that night, Lin Bai appeared on the city wall of Heavenly Destiny Pass. Now, the City Protection Array had been activated, and through the Magic Circle, Lin Bai could see the silhouettes of black-clothed warriors in the mountain range before Heavenly Destiny Pass.

"Heavenly Destiny Pass!"

"Is the name meant to signify that this is the destined land of the Jianghai Region?"

"If this place falls, the Jianghai Region would be in peril."

Lin Bai said coldly.

"With the great battle looming, why do I have a sense of unease..." Lin Bai lowered his head in contemplation. Throughout the years of endless slaughter, with strong ones ahead, Lin Bai had never felt such unease as he did today.

In the distance, inside Heavenly Destiny Pass, Bai Xiaoxiao stood in the shadows, watching Lin Bai’s solitary figure on the city wall. She wanted several times to walk to Lin Bai, yet ultimately did not take that step!

"By tomorrow evening, you will undoubtedly meet her. I wonder what expression you shall wear when you see her."

"Can you handle it?"

Bai Xiaoxiao looked at Lin Bai’s back, silently spoke a sentence, and then turned away.

At the same time, Lin Bai turned back and saw where Bai Xiaoxiao had previously been in the shadowy area. His gaze flickered weakly, and the feeling of unrest in his heart grew stronger.

On the second day at dawn, more and more black-clothed warriors appeared outside Heavenly Destiny Pass, all gazing from afar into the pass.

But they did not act rashly, seemingly aware that Heavenly Destiny Pass was not a city easily taken, all waiting for orders!

Meanwhile, warriors of the East Continent Academy within Heavenly Destiny Pass arrived atop the city walls, observing the dense array of black-clothed warriors in the mountains ahead, reminiscent of locusts passing, making one’s scalp tingle.

"My God!"

"So many Demon Sect warriors?"

"Hmph, they are merely ants using the Demon Sect flag to cover their actions, the true strong ones of the Demon Sect likely haven’t arrived yet."

"Come, let us kill to our hearts’ content!"

The warriors within Heavenly Destiny Pass looked coldly at those black-clothed warriors.

Leng Yun, Shi Zhongxian, and other Quasi Holy Sons had returned to Heavenly Destiny Pass the previous day.

Shi Zhongxian now looked at those black-clothed warriors with a face full of killing intent.

Atop Heavenly Destiny Pass, Gu Daozhi and the Wending Master of East Continent Academy stood together, looking beyond the pass. He said coldly: "They are still coming; finally, we cannot escape!"

Another strong one said: "I genuinely do not understand these warriors, why would they put on a robe representing the Demon Sect and act so recklessly, destroying territories, destroying dynasties, what benefit does this serve them?"

"Perhaps this is the sinister nature of humanity."

"..."

All the strong ones stood together, looking at the eagerly moving Demon Sect warriors outside Heavenly Destiny Pass, mocking disdainfully.

Gu Daozhi said coldly: "Arrange for the warriors to be more vigilant to prevent a sneak attack by the Demon Sect!"

"Yes!" All the strong ones responded.

...

Outside Heavenly Destiny Pass, more and more black-clothed warriors gathered, awaiting the final command.

That night, a white snake emitting enchanting white radiance appeared outside Heavenly Destiny Pass as if flying out from celestial stars. On the snake’s head stood a barefooted white-haired woman, smiling charmingly at Heavenly Destiny Pass.

Accompanying her were two Great Dharma Kings and Eight Great Envoys, along with other Wending Realm strong ones.

Ancestor Ding said: "Sect Leader, this place is Heavenly Destiny Pass, the last line of defense in the Southern War Zone. If we capture Heavenly Destiny Pass, then the Southern War Zone of Jianghai Region will be under our control!"

"Inside Heavenly Destiny Pass are many strong ones, including Gu Daozhi from the Order Divine Court, and five of the nine Elders from the Order Divine Court have arrived!"

"Also, there are strong ones from the four ancient Families of East Continent Academy!"

"Currently, the Wending Realm masters within Heavenly Destiny Pass exceed two hundred!"

"There are also many Death Reversal Realm martial artists, the inner disciples of East Continent Academy are extremely strong as well!"

"And those outer sect disciples mostly have cultivation above the Yin Saint Realm!"

"This Heavenly Destiny Pass is not easy to take!"

After understanding the strength of the warriors within Heavenly Destiny Pass, Ancestor Ding’s expression became increasingly solemn.

The white-haired woman laughed: "No need to panic, we can capture Heavenly Destiny Pass before tomorrow evening!"

"Let the warriors prepare!"

"Attack Heavenly Destiny Pass at dawn tomorrow! Use the yellow smoke as the signal!"

The white-haired woman’s face showed strong confidence.

Ancestor Ding said: "But Sect Leader, the strong ones inside Heavenly Destiny Pass..."

The white-haired woman said: "I naturally have a way to deal with the strong ones of East Continent Academy, you only need to charge into Heavenly Destiny Pass!"

Ancestor Ding nodded: "Good, I will arrange it immediately!"

The white-haired woman nodded slightly.

...

At night, when the moon was high.

Lin Bai still stood on the city wall, watching the dense mass of black-clothed warriors in the night ahead. He could see their greedy eyes hidden in the darkness, like wolves and tigers wanting to devour Heavenly Destiny Pass!

At that moment, Bai Xiaoxiao slowly approached Lin Bai, gazing at the mountain range ahead, and asked: "If nothing unexpected happens, by dawn tomorrow, the Demon Sect will launch an attack on Heavenly Destiny Pass!"

"Are you ready?"

Bai Xiaoxiao smiled and asked.

Lin Bai laughed bitterly and said: "In this martial world, slaughter continues every single day. I came from insignificance, and countless blood and bones have paved my path!"

"For me, slaughter and war are unavoidable!"

"What need do I have to prepare?"

Lin Bai said with a smile.

Bai Xiaoxiao smiled gently, turning to face Lin Bai, her clear eyes looked at him, and there was a hint of heartache in her gaze which flashed by quickly, as if she did not want Lin Bai to see.

Under the moonlight, Bai Xiaoxiao now did not resemble the Empress of Shenwu Kingdom, rather she seemed like a little woman, like Lin Bai’s wife...

"Now, under the moonlight, you remind me of the shattered villa outside Lingdong’s Dayue Kingdom in bygone years, at that time, you were just as beautiful as you are now..."

"Back then, you weren’t the Empress of Shenwu Kingdom, nor was I the Saint of the East Continent Academy!"

"You had no burdens of mission or responsibility, nor did I carry so much pain and hatred!"

"Back then... we were really good!"

Bai Xiaoxiao walked closer to Lin Bai, full of tenderness, and said: "Don’t talk anymore, kiss me, will you?"

Lin Bai looked at Bai Xiaoxiao, his eyes filled with endless affection!

"Kiss me!" Bai Xiaoxiao affectionately looked at Lin Bai.

Lin Bai reached out and hugged Bai Xiaoxiao tightly by the waist, pulling her to him, lowering his head, and his lips met Bai Xiaoxiao’s sweet red lips...

On top of Heavenly Destiny Pass,

Amidst this chaos between the Demon Sect and East Continent,

With the decisive battle coming at dawn tomorrow,

This kiss calmed the hearts of both Lin Bai and Bai Xiaoxiao!

Bai Xiaoxiao held Lin Bai tightly, her hands were so strong, as if once she let go, she would lose Lin Bai, so she held tight, refusing to let go.

"Lin Bai, no matter how the future unfolds, no matter what decisions you make, I will support you!"

"I will always be with you!"

Bai Xiaoxiao thought with determination in her heart.

When Lin Bai kissed Bai Xiaoxiao’s red lips, he felt the tremble on them, sensed her heart’s worry, felt her unease...

At this moment, Lin Bai was more certain that Bai Xiaoxiao was worried about him!

But Lin Bai did not know why Bai Xiaoxiao was worried for him!

Perhaps, when dawn arrives tomorrow, everything will be answered!
