Chapter 217: Chapter 216: The Sword of the Sword Cultivator (Ninth Update)Silence pervaded No Return Cliff for a long time.
Murong Yeshen was dead, and even those who previously desired to challenge Lin Bai now dared not.
The undefeated legend of the Spirit Sword Sectâs Inner Gate, Murong Yeshen, was killed by Lin Bai with a single stroke. Who else dared to challenge Lin Bai?
Just then.
Right when everyone believed that no one else dared to challenge Lin Bai.
A gorgeous woman clad entirely in white, bearing an indifferent expression on her pretty face, sword in hand, approached No Return Cliff.
"Who is that heading to No Return Cliff?"
"My God, who is so fearless of death to challenge Lin Bai?"
"Has she tired of life? Lin Bai, who even killed Murong Yeshen, isnât she just up there to die?"
Many warriors gasped in astonishment as the woman made her way step by step towards No Return Cliff.
Hearing the gasps of the warriors, Lin Bai opened his eyes, looking at the woman approaching from the foot of the cliff.
His eyes narrowed upon laying his eyes on her.
"Young Sect Master, Miss Ye Suxin has gone up." Qi Yang exclaimed in shock, standing beside Su Cang.
"What! Suxin!" Su Cang quickly looked up, his eyes wide in shock seeing the white-robed woman walking up from the foot of the cliff.
At that moment, many warriors recognized Ye Suxin.
"Itâs Ye Suxin!"
"She is Su Cangâs fiancĂ©e!"
"The Divine Alliance was disgraced, I didnât expect Ye Suxin to step in."
"But her cultivation is only...on the sixth level of the Earth Martial Realm... How can she possibly stand a chance against Lin Bai?"
"Sixth Level of the Earth Martial Realm, isnât she just going there to sacrifice herself?"
Many warriors gasped in astonishment.
With a determined gaze, Ye Suxin slowly made her way up No Return Cliff.
She stood opposite Lin Bai.
Ye Suxin had arrived.
Lin Bai rose from the ground, an icy indifference in his eyes as he looked at Ye Suxin.
"Suxin, come back!" Su Cang desperately shouted.
"Suxin, I know youâre doing this for me, I know youâre trying to help me, but come back! Lin Bai isnât human, heâll kill you!"
Su Cang shouted angrily.
"Apprentice sister Ye Suxin, donât be reckless." Qi Yang acknowledged Ye Suxinâs identity, knowing that if she died at the hands of Lin Bai, not only would Lin Bai have to die, but the wrath of the Miracle Ridge would wipe the Spirit Sword Sect from existence.
Under the wrath of the Miracle Ridge, the Spirit Sword Sect would be wiped out. Could Qi Yang survive?
Su Cang was aware of this, and thus urgently appealed to Ye Suxin.
In the eyes of the public, it seemed Su Cang and Ye Suxin shared deep emotions. But the fact was Su Cang was doing this purely for self-preservation.
If Ye Suxin died, everyone in the Spirit Sword Sect, including Su Cang, would die under the wrath of the Miracle Ridge.
But Ye Suxin seemed unmoved the uproar around her. She pulled her sharp sword and silently faced Lin Bai.
The sword aura was overflowing, the sword intention soaring to the sky.
"You want to fight me? You canât beat me." Lin Bai shook his head and said, "Go back."
Ye Suxin said, "This is the best place for us to settle our grievances. You once said, stepping on No Return Cliff requires the resolve to die. Today, either you die, or I die, only one of us can live."
"Why the misery? I said I would take responsibility. I will marry you." Lin Bai shook his head and said.
"I donât need your mercy or sympathy!" Ye Suxin said coldly.
Lin Bai sighed softly, "This isnât about sympathy or mercy... Well, what do you want?"
Ye Suxin said, "I told you, between us, only one can survive today."
"I wonât kill you," Lin Bai shook his head.
"Then you have to die today!" Ye Suxinâs beautiful eyes grew cold as she lunged forward with her sharp sword, a brilliant radiance exploding forth into attack towards Lin Bai.
The sharp Sword Qi left a lengthy Sword Mark on the ground, slashing towards Lin Baiâs body.
Lin Bai dodged in a hurry, his eyes calm as he looked at Ye Suxin, "You canât kill me!"
"I donât believe it!" In her rage, Ye Suxin continued her fierce attack.
In an instant.
On No Return Cliff, a violent battle broke out.
Ye Suxinâs sword skills were as intimidating as a rainbow, as she launched a fierce attack on Lin Bai.
Yet Lin Bai persisted in only dodging but not retaliating, struggling to avoid Ye Suxinâs Sword Skill.
"Whatâs going on?" the Second Elder was taken aback by this sight, "Given Lin Baiâs power, he wouldnât even need to draw his sword to easily defeat Ye Suxin. Why isnât Lin Bai fighting back?"
"Yeah, why isnât he fighting back?" Ji Bei asked, equally surprised.
Not only did the Sword Alliance warriors notice this, but the other warriors saw it as well.
"Whatâs happening? Why isnât Lin Bai fighting back?"
"What is he doing? Sword training? Or dancing?"
"As long as Lin Bai fights back, a single sword stroke could easily defeat Ye Suxin."
Many warriors deeply believed in Lin Baiâs power; how could someone who could kill even Murong Yeshen fail to defeat Ye Suxin, who was merely at the sixth level of the Earth Martial Realm?
Su Cang had originally felt extreme anxiety when he saw Ye Suxin make a move.
But then he saw Lin Bai not retaliate.
That made Su Cang feel surprised.
Why wasnât Lin Bai fighting back?
Not only the Sword Alliance warriors and the Divine Alliance warriors, but even Su Cang himself was confused.
"Why donât you fight back? Lin Bai, why arenât you fighting back? Why arenât you making a move to kill Ye Suxin?" Su Cang questioned himself repeatedly in his heart.
"Why?"
"Why?"
"Ah... Have you fallen for her?"
After repeating his question several times, Su Cang found his answer.
Su Cang looked at Lin Bai in astonishment, his eyes spewing towering rage as a storm of fury erupted from his body.
Su Cang firmly believed that Lin Bai had fallen for Ye Suxin and was thus unwilling to kill her.
But Ye Suxin was his, Su Cangâs, fiancĂ©e!
Lin Baiâs actions were undoubtedly a provocation to Su Cang!
"Why isnât Lin Bai fighting back?"
"Why isnât Lin Bai fighting back?"
This was the burning question in the minds of all the Spirit Sword Sect warriors.
"A Sword Cultivator who doesnât draw his sword or fight back when faced with a challenger."
"Thereâs only one explanation."
A warrior looked at Lin Bai and said with a smile.
Hearing this warriorâs possible answer, the others immediately questioned him: "Brother, what explanation? Do tell."
That warrior smiled knowingly: "Itâs simple. If a Sword Cultivator doesnât fight back or resist a challenger, it can only mean that his challenger is the person he deeply loves."
"A Sword Cultivatorâs sword exists to defeat enemies."
"A Sword Cultivatorâs sword will never be pointed at oneâs own beloved."
Hearing the warriorâs explanation, the others looked horrified.
"I smell gossip."
"Youâre saying Lin Bai is in love with Ye Suxin?"
"Ye Suxin is Su Cangâs fiancĂ©e, does this mean Su Cang has been cuckolded?"
