The Unparalleled Sword Emperor

Nanxi City, originally one of the Seven Major Cities within the Sky Desolation Secret Realm under the Southern Yard Warriors, was suddenly seized by the Demon Clan's army a few days ago, turning tens of thousands of warriors inside the city into mere skeletons overnight!

Half a day later, Lin Bai walked out of the forest and arrived outside Nanxi City.

Looking up, the magnificent city wall of Nanxi City was now mostly destroyed. The ground and walls were stained with blood and littered with bones, with even some severed limbs visible, showcasing the tragic deaths of several warriors.

Lin Bai, transformed to look like Chi Wei, solemnly walked towards the inside of Nanxi City.

In the current Nanxi City, demons were everywhere.

"Giant Elephant..."

Lin Bai noticed that the attire and even the flesh of these demons were embroidered or carved with the mark of a Giant Elephant.

Connected with the information previously obtained from Chen Hu, it seemed the Demon Clan that had conquered Nanxi City belonged to Giant Elephant City, one of the eighteen major Demon Clan cities within the Sky Desolation Secret Realm.

And Young Master Xuanqing was unmistakably one of the commanders of this battle!

"Chi Wei, you're back?"

As Lin Bai entered Nanxi City, a demon with a face full of smiles came over, calling out to Lin Bai.

Seeing the demon, Lin Bai was momentarily stunned and dug through his memory. After a moment, Lin Bai laughed and said, "It's you, Stupid Bull! Where are you heading?"

Now approaching Lin Bai was a bull demon whose strength was astonishing and who had been by Xuan Qing's side as a guardian for many years.

The Bull Demon laughed, "Under the Young Master's command, I'm heading out on an errand!"

Lin Bai narrowed his eyes: "Does the Young Master already have a plan?"

The Bull Demon said, "Hehe, the Young Master's plan is not to be easily shared with us, but he said this time, we'll make the Southern Yard Warriors in the Sky Desolation Secret Realm run for their lives. We'll see."

Lin Bai suddenly understood and said, "Oh, if you have things to do, I won't disturb you. By the way, do you know where the Human Clan warriors that the Young Master recently brought back are being held?"

The Bull Demon said, "In the prisoner of war camp on the east side, why do you ask?"

Lin Bai chuckled lightly, "Nothing much, just checking if they're being properly handled!"

"In that case, I have more matters to attend with the Young Master, so I'll be on my way."

Lin Bai clasped his hands in salute.

The Bull Demon nodded slightly and headed towards the outside of Nanxi City.

After parting with the Bull Demon, Lin Bai proceeded straight towards the eastern prisoner of war camp.

Along the way, Lin Bai encountered many demons who greeted him. It was only then that Lin Bai realized that Chi Wei had some influence around the Young Master, and many demons wanted to curry favor with Chi Wei.

"Chi Wei, how come you're back?"

Just then, while Lin Bai was heading to the prisoner of war camp, a surprised voice suddenly came from behind him.

Lin Bai turned around to see that the person who called him was none other than Young Master Xuanqing.

At this moment, by the side of Young Master Xuanqing stood two individuals, unmistakably Litian Ying and Kong Qi!

Young Master Xuanqing frowned as he walked over, his face displeased, "Why have you returned? Didn't I tell you to stay by Uncle Yuan's side and follow his commands?"

Lin Bai quickly smiled obsequiously, "Young Master, Uncle Yuan went to chase that guy, but he found me too slow, so he asked me to come back first to tell you that he will bring back that person's head to see you within seven days!"

Young Master Xuanqing slightly frowned and said, "Is that so? Well, since you're back, stick with me. After all, that Stupid Bull was sent to Skyhawk City and White Snake City by me."

"Come, follow me to meet Big Brother and Father."

With that, Young Master Xuanqing led Litian Ying and Kong Qi towards the interior of Nanxi City.

Lin Bai was taken aback, his eyes swiveling around, and he silently followed along.

Inside Nanxi City, in one of the most luxurious palaces, Xuanqing brought Lin Bai, Litian Ying, and Kong Qi inside!

In the palace, an old man and a young man sat; the old man appeared to be about fifty years old but exuded extremely powerful energy, while the young man seemed to be over thirty, with a resolute expression.

Seeing these two, Lin Bai immediately found relevant information from Chi Wei's memory.

"City Lord of Giant Elephant City, Xuan Ling!"

"Eldest Young Master of Giant Elephant City, Xuan Kong!"

Seeing these two, Lin Bai's heart sank.

"Xuanqing is back."

The old man, Xuan Ling, said with a smile.

Xuan Kong lightly laughed, "Second Brother, weren't you out hunting? How did it go? Any gains?"

Xuanqing clasped his hands and said, "Father, Big Brother, I did indeed have quite a harvest this time."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Ling and Xuan Kong's faces lit up with joy, and they asked, "What did you gain?"

Xuanqing said, "Precisely these two."

Xuanqing looked towards Litian Ying and Kong Qi.

Litian Ying and Kong Qi hurriedly knelt down, trembling all over, and said, "Litian Ying, Kong Qi, pay respects to the Eldest Young Master and the City Lord of Giant Elephant City!"

Xuan Ling frowned, "Two Human Clans?"

Xuan Kong laughed, "Second Brother, what do you mean by bringing two Human Clans back?"

Xuanqing laughed, "Father, Big Brother, these two aren't just anybody. They are scouts from the Tide City's Scout Camp, responsible for investigating the situation of Nanxi City. Moreover, most of the Tide City's Scout Camp has been wiped out by us."

"Currently, there are only a few of them left."

"Meaning that any information from Tide City now relies on their investigation!"

Xuanqing laughed with a profound meaning.

Xuan Ling frowned, "Xuanqing, if you have something to say, just say it."

Xuanqing laughed, "Father, I have a strategy here that can double our war achievements for Giant Elephant City in this battle!"

Xuan Ling shook his head and laughed, "You, always full of mischief from a young age, let's hear what strategy you have this time."

Upon hearing this, Lin Bai also perked up and listened carefully to Xuanqing.

Xuanqing chuckled and said, "Father, according to these two, after we destroyed Nanxi City, the Human Clan of the other six major cities of the Sky Desolation Secret Realm have already organized an alliance army, and they will be heading to Nanxi City soon."

"So I plan to use this to my advantage."

Xuan Qing laughed.

Xuan Kong asked, "What do you mean?"

Xuanqing said, "I plan to send these two back to Tide City and inform the alliance army of Tide City that Nanxi City only contains demons from Giant Elephant City, numbering less than ten thousand, and most of the demons are below the Third Level of the Life-and-Death Realm, very weak and easy to capture!"

"Lure them all over here!"

Xuan Kong said, "Indeed, although we captured Nanxi City, Giant Elephant City's strength has significantly depleted, with most of the demons above the Fifth Level of the Life-and-Death Realm having perished in battle..."

"If you bring the alliance army over at this moment, I'm afraid we won't be able to resist, and Giant Elephant City might even face destruction because of it!"

Xuan Kong solemnly said.

Xuanqing laughed, "Big Brother, relying solely on the demons of Giant Elephant City, we indeed cannot resist the alliance army of the Southern Yard, but what about with the addition of Skyhawk City and White Snake City?"

"Skyhawk City and White Snake City..." Xuan Ling and Xuan Kong exchanged a glance, their eyes flashing brilliantly!
