241: Chapter 241 The Whole Story

" Third Elder, this person... "

Seeing Lin Bei leave, the Fourth and Fifth Sword Elders spoke up immediately; they still didn't quite believe his words.

" No need to ask more! " Li Chun shook his head slightly. " In any case, satisfy all his demands and send him away as soon as possible... "

He still remembered the sentence the other party said when he left Shura City.

" I am Lin Bei, and I am now going to the Spirit Devouring Sword Clan! "

If the people of the Nine Emperor Clans started a fight with this scourge in Spirit Devouring Sword City, he feared the entire city wouldn't survive...

No, just in case, he must wake up the First Sword Elder first!

Thinking of this, he turned to look at the Fourth and Fifth Sword Elders, his expression serious. " Remember, if he comes out and I haven't returned yet, do not come into conflict with him! "

" Don't worry, Third Elder, we are not reckless people! "

Sword Spirit Holy Land, although called a Holy Land, was actually just a relatively deep cave.

Lin Bei walked along the cave for only an incense stick's time before seeing a pool of water.

A woman was sitting cross-legged by the pool, staring at him vigilantly.

" Are you the new Sword Child of Spirit Devouring Sword City? I haven't seen you before! "

" Thirty zhang distance, you are not allowed to come any closer! " Seeing Lin Bei still approaching, she shouted lightly again.

Lin Bei paused his steps, curious.

" Half-Saint cultivation? I am very curious about what you rely on to resist those Saint Sword Children... "

After speaking, he took a step forward, crossing the thirty-zhang boundary.

" This is you asking for trouble! " A sneer appeared on the woman's face, and she began to weave hand seals.

Immediately, the calm pool of water beside her surged with waves.

After a few breaths, the water surged out, condensing into a water sword above the pool, carrying sharp Sword Qi, and violently stabbed at Lin Bei.

" Swish! " The water sword reached him, but failed to advance an inch, directly turning into a pool of cold water and splashing onto him.

" What are you doing? " Lin Bei rolled his eyes and circulated his spiritual power to evaporate the pool water.

" You... You are not a Cultivator of the Spirit Devouring Sword Clan? " The woman, seeing this, called out in disbelief.

" Eh? How did you know? "

" A Cultivator of the Spirit Devouring Sword Clan could not possibly have no reaction under my Spirit Devouring Water Sword! "

" Not necessarily, right? " Lin Bei was a bit skeptical. " If a Great Saint of the Spirit Devouring Sword Clan came, would your water sword have any effect? "

" Humph! Great Saints are powerful, but they cannot resist this innate suppression and would still be affected slightly! " The woman responded rather haughtily.

" Innate suppression? Are you talking about this pool? " Lin Bei's gaze shifted.

" The pool? " The woman's eyes narrowed slightly. " You are indeed not a member of the Spirit Devouring Sword Clan; they all call this the Holy Pond! "

" Since they let an outsider like you come in, it seems your strength or status must be quite high. Tell me, what do you need me to do? "

" What is your name? " Lin Bei did not answer the other party's question.

" My name is... Li Wanshuang! " The woman hesitated for a moment before speaking the name that hadn't been called out for a long time.

" Li Wanshuang? " Lin Bei nodded slightly. " Very good, I am here to take you away! "

The woman was stunned for a moment. " Leave? Go where? Why should I go with you? "

" Do you know Chen Ping and Li Qingfeng? " Lin Bei got straight to the point.

" Boom! " As the words fell, the pool water beside Li Wanshuang surged again, ten times more violently than before.

A look of surprise flashed in Lin Bei's eyes. He could see that this time, it wasn't the woman using magic to control the water, but rather the water seeming to be affected by her emotions.

It was evident how strongly the woman's heart was shaken at this moment!

" You... You... Could it be that you come from the Desolate Ancient Continent?! " Li Wanshuang's voice trembled, and her body even shook slightly.

Few people in the Spirit Devouring Sword Clan knew about Chen Ping's affair, but she had never mentioned the name of Li Qingfeng to anyone since she returned to Yinming Land.

" That's right! " Lin Bei nodded. " I come from the Desolate Ancient Continent, and I have quite a connection with Qingfeng Blessed Land! "

" Qingfeng Blessed Land... " Hearing this name, Li Wanshuang was in a trance again. " Is Qingfeng Blessed Land okay? "

" Uh... It's actually not very good... " Lin Bei was slightly embarrassed.

" What? What happened to Qingfeng Blessed Land? What about Ping'er and my foster father? How are they? "

" Don't worry, don't worry, they are fine! " Seeing the other party's emotions becoming more agitated, he quickly comforted her. " Now, can you come with me? "

A look of longing appeared on Li Wanshuang's face, but it instantly turned into sadness. " No, I can't leave... "

Before Lin Bei could ask, she began to explain.

" When members of the Spirit Devouring Sword Clan are born, they do not have the Spirit Devouring talent; they need to enter this pool in their infancy to be baptized and awaken their talent! "

" This is also the reason why this pool is called the Holy Pond by them... "

" Then... what is your relationship with this pool? Why can you help them strengthen their talent? " Lin Bei asked the doubt in his heart.

" I was born in this pool and have an inexplicable connection with it, allowing me to mobilize some of its energy! "

" So it's similar to a Holy Spirit, nurtured by heaven and earth! " Lin Bei understood. " Then how did you appear in the Desolate Ancient Continent back then? "

" According to those Great Saints, when this pool nurtured me back then, it accumulated infinite Sword Intent! "

" The moment I was born, all the Sword Intent erupted completely, actually cutting a gap in the barrier between the Desolate Ancient Continent and Yinming Land, sending me to the Desolate Ancient Continent... "

" So magical? " Lin Bei was surprised. " Then how did they find you back? Can the Spirit Devouring Sword Clan go to the Desolate Ancient Continent at will? "

" How is that possible? " Li Wanshuang couldn't help but roll her eyes.

" The ancestor of the Spirit Devouring Sword Clan once left behind a formation map containing extremely strong Sword Intent! "

" Several Great Saints in the clan and all the Saints poured their spiritual power into it for hundreds of years to activate it, open a slight crack leading to the Desolate Ancient Continent, and bring me back! "

Speaking of this, a look of hatred also appeared on her face. " Poor Ping'er, his cultivation Foundation was actually... by them... "

" Then why do you still help them? " Lin Bei was puzzled.

" Because of Brother Xun! "

" Your husband? "

" Yes, Brother Xun was brought back with me, but Yinming Land has dense Yin Qi, and Brother Xun's cultivation was too low, and he had just arrived here from the Desolate Ancient Continent, so he couldn't bear it at all. "

" So the Spirit Devouring Sword Clan used Brother Xun's life to trade with me, making me stay here to help the clan members improve their talent... "

" In order to let me guide more Spirit Devouring power in the Holy Pond, they even used secret techniques to connect me with the aura of this pool! "

" I am now unable to leave this pool for more than a hundred zhang... "

Li Wanshuang explained the ins and outs of the matter in one breath.

" This matter is not difficult! " The corners of Lin Bei's mouth curled up, and a Brick appeared in his hand, smashing down towards the side of the pool.

" Hum! " The Void Realm trembled, and a chain of order appeared out of thin air, connecting the woman and the pool.

" Break for me! "
