CHAPTER 324: CHAPTER 310: SO WHAT IF I DIE

"Release him? Where would the face of our Demon Clan be then?" Charming Spirit Demon Venerable sneered, "Or perhaps, I could just throw his corpse over to you."

The Demon Venerables of the Demon Realm clearly had no intention of sparing Yun Jian.

Shi Nian took a deep breath, ready to teleport over at any moment.

Perhaps knowing what Shi Nian was thinking,

Lin Bai suddenly sent a message!

"Girl! Concentrate on purifying the Demon Pool! I will save your Third Senior Brother at any cost, even at the risk of my own life."

Lin Bai’s expression became extremely serious all of a sudden.

Yun Jian must not die.

But the Demon Pool must also be purified!

Purifying the Demon Pool and annihilating the Demon Clan is the inherited mission and obsession of generations of the Human Clan!

So many years have passed.

Countless humans have perished at the hands of the Demon Clan.

And so many have seen their relatives, children, friends killed by the Demon Clan.

Even his own wife...

A resolute flash crossed the eyes of Lin Bai, the Sword Immortal.

This time, no matter what, he must hold out and buy time, even if it means using his life to do so—he would not hesitate!

Moreover, death is not that terrifying. After all, it would be an opportunity to reunite with his wife.

"Sword Immortal?" Shi Nian’s expression changed slightly: "You must not be impulsive. I only need ten more minutes. If it really comes to it..."

"There will be no such possibility." Lin Bai slowly took out a wine gourd and leisurely took a sip of wine.

Good wine.

If he had to die, his only regret would be this wine.

"I will hold out for these ten minutes no matter what. Yun Jian will be safe! No matter what you see, I beg you... do not give up on purifying the Demon Pool."

After sending this last sentence, Lin Bai suddenly threw the wine gourd aside and drew a sword that appeared ancient and had rust spots on its blade.

But.

The moment this sword appeared, everyone’s expression turned grave.

The faces of the several great Demon Venerables all changed instantly!

Initially, Demon Eye Demon Venerable fell beneath this very sword of Lin Bai.

This sword, infused with a secret technique and usually kept hidden for rest and recovery, becomes more powerful the longer its rest period is.

It has been less than two years since the death of Demon Eye Demon Venerable, so this sword should not have gathered much power in this time.

However, the owner of this sword is Lin Bai.

Lin Bai, the Sword Immortal.

These four words carry a sharpness that neither humans nor demons can ignore.

Lin Bai stepped forward.

He was alone.

Yet the expressions of the seven great Demon Venerables all changed.

"Lin Bai, what are you implying? Are you willing to start a war prematurely over just one member of the Human Clan?" Charming Spirit Demon Venerable narrowed his eyes.

The Human Clan had always been avoiding direct confrontation, probably hoping to buy time.

Especially the higher-ups of the Human Clan—they had not participated in any battle either.

They were likely waiting for the right moment.

But that moment was definitely not right now.

Was Lin Bai really about to provoke a war prematurely just for the sake of a mere Yun Jian?

Charming Spirit Demon Venerable looked at Yun Jian somewhat skeptically.

Did this kid have some special significance?

Dongfang Zhang, already at the edge of the battlefield holding Leng Shuqin, saw the worry on her face and sneered.

His woman!

In his presence, worrying about another man!

Was she courting death?

He was somewhat reluctant to kill Leng Shuqin.

So let Yun Jian die instead.

Even though Yun Jian seemed to have quite the background, what of it?

With his current Cultivation, facing multiple attackers and still being able to retreat without harm would be a breeze.

While the Demon Venerables were briefly stunned by Lin Bai, Dongfang Zhang abruptly launched an attack on Yun Jian.

Leng Shuqin was the first to notice, and she couldn’t help screaming out in alarm.

At the next moment, a sword light directly faced the oncoming challenge.

This time, standing in front of Dongfang Zhang, were Ling Tian Sword Master and Fox Ruoshui.

Ling Tian Sword Master’s expression was icy cold: "To lay a hand on my disciple, you must first get past me."

Shi Nian had left him a few amplifying Talismans, and both he and Fox Ruoshui had used them all up.

It should be possible to hold off Dongfang Zhang.

Dongfang Zhang felt the aura of the two and his expression also turned slightly colder.

Although the aura of the two seemed somewhat unstable, they were indeed at the Peak Realm.

Dongfang Zhang tossed Leng Shuqin aside with a flick of his hand, and spoke indifferently: "Since you’re so eager to seek death, then I shall send you both to the Western Paradise. Yun Jian, your death is certain today. Anyone who interferes will die!"

In the book, Dongfang Zhang declared it was to spare Leng Shuqin from harboring a grudge against him. He still beat around the bush, letting Yun Jian die at the hands of the Demon Clan.

But in this lifetime, Dongfang Zhang did not care so much about Leng Shuqin’s feelings.

To kill directly, so what?

"It seems that your Human Clan is already at odds with each other. Lin Bai, do you think you can win against the seven of us?" The seven Demon Lords sneered coldly.

Lin Bai was about to speak.

The next moment.

One after another, powerful figures of the Human Clan stood by his side.

An elder with a stern expression said: "Since Sword Immortal has decided to fight, how can I, this old fellow, not be involved?"

"And me."

"And me."

"Damn it, I’ve long wanted to take on the Demon Clan!"

The Demon Clan also began to shout.

"Then let’s fight!"

"Wipe out these humans!"

The emotions of the two clans reached their peak in an instant.

In the sky.

Both sides looked at each other.

Lin Bai spoke slowly: "The battle is inevitable, but now, all the rest of you withdraw. I would indeed like to have a good fight with the Charming Spirit Demon Venerable. Charming Spirit, do you dare to take me on one-on-one? This time, until death do us part!"

Lin Bai’s voice was intense and harsh.

He knew that as soon as Shi Nian arrived, the Charming Spirit Demon Clan would naturally die.

But.

He did not want the Charming Spirit Demon Venerable to die at someone else’s hand.

This demon, he would personally slay!

"Until death do us part?" Charming Spirit Demon Venerable suddenly let out a laugh like tinkling bells: "Since you are so persistent, then come! But one-on-one is no good, Lin Bai. You wish to save Yun Jian’s life and the rules, they must be set by us. If you want to fight, then it shall be one against seven!"

The words of Charming Spirit Demon Venerable could be called shameless.

"Sword Immortal, this won’t do, we..." The people of the Human Clan were somewhat panicking.

One-on-one there was a chance of victory! But one against seven! The Sword Immortal might not last long at all!

However, Lin Bai seemed to have anticipated this, he calmly said: "Then it’s one against seven. The rest of you, are not allowed to intervene!"

He might die in battle.

But, he would hold out until Shi Nian arrived! If Shi Nian comes, the life of one Lin Bai, is not a pity to lose.

Lin Bai actually agreed?

The seven Demon Lords were all somewhat incredulous.

But such a good opportunity, they would not miss, and in an instant, all seven Demon Lords struck simultaneously. Lin Bai also instantly used the amplifying set given by Shi Nian, and his aura surged immensely.

Elsewhere.

The battle was joined between Ling Tian Sword Master, Fox Ruoshui, and Dongfang Zhang.

They had only one thought, delay these final few minutes.

The Demon Pool!

The Demon Pool is soon to be purified.

The condition of Ling Tian Sword Master and Fox Ruoshui was better, there were two of them after all, and Dongfang Zhang did not intend to have a decisive life-or-death battle with them.

On Lin Bai’s side.

The seven Demon Lords finally seized this chance, they really wanted to kill Lin Bai!

Even with his power amplified, Lin Bai was close to the Peak Realm to begin with; the extent of his amplification was far less than that of Ling Tian Sword Master and the others.

The seven Demon Lords attacked at once, and soon numerous wounds appeared on his body, blood ran in streams!

Shi Nian looked at this scene, his hands trembling slightly.

"Shi Nian! My death is of no importance! Remember, purify the Demon Pool. If you come to save me, I will commit suicide in front of you, and then, it will truly be a death with everlasting regret." Lin Bai’s resolute voice came through the All-Worlds Communication.

Even Xiao Tong was silent for a moment.
