The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 2702 - 2677: If You’re Upset, You Can Touch Me Back!
Originally, the head of the Tang Family, Tangjing Xiu, didn’t know that the famous "Moon God" in the Fighting Arena was actually Tang Yuezhi, until Lin Bai defeated Moon God just now.
Tangjing Yuan saw that things were not going well and immediately sought help from Tangjing Xiu, revealing the truth of the matter.
At that moment, Tangjing Xiu immediately set out for the Fighting Arena. Fortunately, in the end, Lin Bai did not kill Tang Yuezhi; otherwise, Tangjing Xiu might have regretted it for life.
In the main hall, Tangjing Yuan, who was the Second Master of the Tang Family, lowered his head, aggrieved, facing the wrath of his elder brother!
"You are idle every day, loafing around, not diligent in cultivation, and not managing the family’s business. Finally, when you were sent to manage the business at the Fighting Arena, you even brought Yuezhi in."
Tangjing Xiu was furious, glaring at Tangjing Yuan and roaring incessantly.
Faced with Tangjing Xiu’s wrath, Tangjing Yuan dared not retort.
At this moment, Tang Yuezhi spoke, "Father, don’t blame Uncle. I insisted that Uncle take me to the Fighting Arena, and it was I who forced him. It’s all my fault!"
"No matter how father punishes me, I have no words," Tang Yuezhi said.
Tangjing Xiu glared at Tang Yuezhi and said, "You are indeed at fault. Do you know what kind of place the Fighting Arena is? The warriors there are all people who lick blood from their blades. If anything happened to you, how would I explain to your deceased mother!"
Tang Yuezhi remained silent, saying nothing.
Tangjing Xiu glared at the two and said, "You uncle and niece are determined to anger me to death, aren’t you?"
Tang Yuezhi said again, "I did it for the Tang Family too..."
Tangjing Xiu roared, "Don’t say you did it for the Tang Family. I’m not dead yet, the Tang Family is not your concern!"
Tang Yuezhi, feeling somewhat wronged, looked at Tangjing Xiu with tears in her eyes and said in a low voice, "The City Lord is seriously injured and will soon step down from the position."
"And the status of our Tang Family in Black Water City is declining day by day. If we don’t secure the City Lord’s position, I’m afraid our Tang Family will not be able to stand in Black Water City for long!"
"I just saw Father worrying about this matter every day and wanted to quickly enhance my strength!"
Tang Yuezhi glanced at Tangjing Xiu, then turned and ran out of the main hall.
"Yuezhi!" shouted Uncle Tangjing Yuan.
Tangjing Xiu watched Tang Yuezhi’s retreating figure, sighed helplessly, and shook his head slightly.
At this moment, Tangjing Yuan knelt on one knee and said, "Brother, everything is my fault. Please don’t be angry with Yuezhi, she’s a good child!"
Tangjing Xiu shook his head and said, "Forget it, since Yuezhi is fine, let’s leave it at that!"
"But Tangjing Yuan, you are indeed gravely at fault!"
"Now I give you an opportunity to redeem yourself. Go find the Sword Demon and present some gifts to thank him for not killing Yuezhi in the Fighting Arena!"
Tangjing Xiu said indifferently.
"Yes, brother," replied Tangjing Yuan.
The Fighting Arena is a place of slaughter. Even if Lin Bai killed Tang Yuezhi in the arena, the Tang Family would be furious but couldn’t do anything to Lin Bai.
Yet Lin Bai didn’t kill Tang Yuezhi; rather, he spared her life.
As the head of the Tang Family, it was appropriate for Tangjing Xiu to make some gesture of gratitude.
...
Lin Bai sat in the Secret Chamber, arduously cultivating the Black Water Thunderbolt!
At this moment, Lin Bai’s eyes suddenly opened, and two forms of Thunderbolt Power emanated from his body.
One was a black thunderbolt, which was the Black Water Divine Thunder.
The other was a green thunderbolt, which was the Qingmu Divine Thunder.
The two thunderbolts continually circulated and flashed over Lin Bai’s body, exuding a terrifying power, yet they coexisted peacefully without any backfire.
"These two kinds of thunderbolts are indeed stronger!"
Lin Bai clenched his fist, with the Qingmu Divine Thunder and the Black Water Divine Thunder coalescing upon it.
Even without striking, Lin Bai could feel that his punch could easily destroy a warrior at the Death Reversal Realm Great Perfection!
"If the power of two thunderbolts is already so formidable, wouldn’t finding five types of Thunderbolt Power be even..." Lin Bai thought eagerly.
Five types of Thunderbolt Power would certainly be stronger!
Now, Lin Bai was increasingly determined to find the other three types of Thunderbolt Power.
"I wonder if Madam Yang’s words are true or not? Does she really know where the third volume of the Divine Thunder Art is?" Lin Bai pondered privately, murmuring.
But just then.
While Lin Bai was cultivating in the Secret Chamber, he suddenly heard a commotion in the courtyard.
Curious, Lin Bai stepped out of the Secret Chamber and pushed the door open.
Lin Bai initially thought it was Ban Ye and Fatty returning, but when he opened the door, he was surprised.
The person in the courtyard wasn’t Fatty or Ban Ye, but rather a woman of unparalleled beauty.
This woman had skin like condensation, a perfect figure, her long black hair cascading like a waterfall to her hips, and even without makeup, she surpassed the beauties of the world!
"Young Miss."
Lin Bai softly called as he looked at the woman’s back.
The woman, upon hearing Lin Bai’s voice, suddenly turned around, and Lin Bai noticed Tang Yuezhi’s eyes were slightly red, as if she had just been crying!
Seeing Lin Bai, Tang Yuezhi quickly wiped her tears and said in a low voice, "I had nowhere else to go, so I came here to stay for a while!"
Lin Bai laughed and said, "No worries, this is the Guest Quarters. After all, this place is still the Tang Family’s domain, so Young Miss can come and go as you please!"
Tang Yuezhi said, "Thank you for sparing me in the Fighting Arena!"
Lin Bai laughed and said, "We were never enemies, nor have you offended me. I had no reason to kill you. In essence, the Fighting Arena was just a place for sparring; I had no sufficient reason to kill you!"
Tang Yuezhi looked at Lin Bai, her eyes flashing as she said, "Lin Bai, could you tell me what method you use to control the Black Water Divine Thunder?"
"Why is it that your Black Water Divine Thunder is so much stronger than mine?"
Hearing this question again, Lin Bai shook his head helplessly and said, "Miss Yuezhi, didn’t we agree in the Fighting Arena? If you beat me, I’d tell you the Dharma Method, but since you lost, you can’t ask again!"
Tang Yuezhi’s face turned somber, a bit disappointed.
This was indeed their agreement in the Fighting Arena.
But at this moment, not knowing what she thought of, Tang Yuezhi’s face flushed, and she said in a shy and low voice, "But you... but you... but you touched me twice..."
"Shouldn’t you give me some compensation?"
Tang Yuezhi said bashfully.
Hearing this, Lin Bai widened his eyes and looked at Tang Yuezhi.
Then, Lin Bai chuckled and said, "Miss Yuezhi, I did that to save you. If I didn’t help to calm the chaotic Black Water Divine Thunder in your body, that power would have destroyed your meridians and bones!"
"Besides, although I touched you twice, if you’re upset, you can touch me back!"
Lin Bai said with a casual smile.
