Chapter 2726: Chapter 2701: Wind and Rain Approaches

Lin Ye was dragged by Lin Bai and forcefully pressed into the wooden barrel.

Lin Bai washed away the grime from Lin Ye’s body.

Then, Lin Bai dressed Lin Ye in clean and comfortable clothes.

Wearing the clean clothes, Lin Bai saw a happy smile appear on Lin Ye’s face!

Lin Bai laughed and said, "From now on, live like a human being!"

Lin Ye looked at Lin Bai in a daze.

Lin Bai laughed and said, "We exist in this world, all involuntary! We can die, but before we die, we should live in this world like human beings!"

"Live more brilliantly than anyone else!"

"Live more honorably than anyone else!"

"Live prouder than anyone else!"

"Because... our survival... is truly not easy!"

Lin Bai earnestly looked at Lin Ye and said.

Beside Lin Ye, Lin Bai saw his former self.

Perhaps Lin Ye’s experiences were completely different from Lin Bai’s, the two had different lives, but ultimately, they were both abandoned by the world, spat upon, deemed worthless, treated like dogs...

Just as Lin Bai said, we can die, but before we die, we must live like humans, because our survival is truly not easy!

Lin Ye seemed half understanding, but still nodded seriously to Lin Bai!

When Lin Bai was carefully teaching Lin Ye in the small courtyard...

Nowadays in Black Water City, it was all ruckus!

...

In the Tang Family Main Hall, Tangjing Xiu was discussing the current Dragon City Battle with the Tang Family Elders!

At this time, Tang Yuezhi hurriedly stormed in.

Tangjing Xiu said irritably, "Yuezhi, I’m currently discussing the Dragon City Battle with the Elders, how can you just barge in like this!"

Tang Yuezhi clasped her hands and said, "Please forgive me, father and all elders, father, I have something to tell you!"

Tangjing Xiu said with a gloomy expression, "What is it, tell me!"

Tang Yuezhi looked around silently.

Tangjing Xiu then understood that what Tang Yuezhi wanted to say was not suitable for discussion with the Tang Family Elders and said, "All you elders have worked hard, let’s call it a day, you may go and rest!"

"Yes, Patriarch!" All the Elders stood up one after another and left the main hall.

Tangjing Xiu said, "Alright, now it’s just you and me, whatever you have to say, just say it!"

Tang Yuezhi immediately said, "Father, Lin Bai has tendered his resignation and wants to leave the Tang Family!"

Tangjing Xiu was taken aback and said, "Lin Bai? The new Guest Official who just came to our Tang family less than two months ago, if he wants to leave, let him go!"

"Our Tang family doesn’t make things difficult for anyone!"

Tang Yuezhi hurriedly said, "But father, this Guest Official Lin Bai is the Sword Demon who defeated Senior Xu Guang in the Fighting Arena!"

"Are we just going to let him leave so easily?"

Upon hearing this, Tangjing Xiu jumped up from his chair in shock and looked at Tang Yuezhi with wide eyes and said, "What! Yuezhi, what did you say?"

"The Guest Official Lin Bai who has been with the Tang Family for less than two months is the Sword Demon dominating the Fighting Arena?"

"How do you know this?"

Tang Yuezhi said, "He is indeed the Sword Demon, there’s no doubt, if you don’t believe me, you can send someone to the Fighting Arena for a thorough investigation!"

"Also, I guess Ban Ye knows his identity too, you can ask Ban Ye about it!"

Tangjing Xiu said excitedly, "If he truly is the Sword Demon, then perhaps our Tang Family still has a fighting chance in the Dragon City Battle!"

"Make sure not to let him leave the Tang Family!"

"I’ll make my decision after I confirm the truth!"

Tangjing Xiu immediately said.

Tang Yuezhi nodded slightly!

...

In the deep night, Lin Bai was sitting in the courtyard, speaking to Lin Ye.

Although Lin Bai knew that Lin Ye might not understand, he still wanted to say it, saying it more often, Lin Ye would surely understand a little.

Lin Ye’s intelligence wasn’t high; he needed to be taught slowly!

Just at this moment, Lin Bai’s smile suddenly froze, his gaze turned icy as he looked past the courtyard.

Lin Ye also suddenly stood up from the chair, looking angrily beyond the courtyard.

"Calm down!"

Lin Bai said softly.

Upon hearing Lin Bai’s words, the murderous intent on Lin Ye’s face subsided significantly.

At this time, Lin Bai said, "Friends outside the courtyard, since you’re here, why not come in for a chat?"

As Lin Bai’s voice spread out, a laughter immediately came from outside the courtyard: "Hahaha, who would have thought that the Sword Demon of the Fighting Arena would be just a small Guest Official of the Tang family now!"

Walking into the courtyard was an old man in a purple robe, smiling at Lin Bai.

Lin Bai looked at him and coldly said, "Who are you?"

The Elder in a purple robe clasped his fists and said, "Greetings, Sword Demon Brother, this old man’s name is Zhao Huchen, an Elder of the Zhao Family, one of the Eight Great Clans of Black Water City!"

Lin Bai said, "State your purpose!"

The Elder in purple robe, Zhao Huchen, said, "This old man has no other intention, nor any hostility towards Sword Demon Brother, merely acting on family orders, inviting you to visit the Zhao Family!"

"Sword Demon Brother, don’t overthink, it’s just that today the Zhao Family has a few jars of good wine freshly brewed, and the Patriarch specially sent me to invite Sword Demon Brother over to taste it!"

Zhao Huchen said with a faint smile.

Lin Bai shook his head and said, "I, Lin Mou, am not fond of wine, thank you Zhao Family for your kindness, please return!"

After speaking, Lin Bai no longer wanted to engage with Zhao Huchen.

Zhao Huchen said, "Sword Demon Brother, if you do this, it will make things difficult for me! Don’t tell me Sword Demon Brother is unwilling to even have a cup of wine at the Zhao Family?"

In Zhao Huchen’s eyes, there was a trace of threat.

At this moment, Lin Ye sensed the killing intent from Zhao Huchen, quickly stepped out, protecting Lin Bai behind him.

Zhao Huchen was surprised and said, "Beast, you’re actually here too?"

Beneath Lin Ye’s disheveled hair, a pair of fierce eyes stared at Zhao Huchen, as if ready to charge forward and fight Zhao Huchen at Lin Bai’s command.

Zhao Huchen also sensed Lin Ye’s killing intent, the power within him gradually sharpened, spreading a Wending Realm power.

Feeling the growing killing intent between Lin Ye and Zhao Huchen, Lin Bai softly said, "Since the Zhao Family is so hospitable, if I, Lin Mou, don’t go, it would indeed be discourteous!"

"Then let Senior Zhao Huchen lead the way!"

Lin Bai walked past Lin Ye and spoke to Zhao Huchen.

Hearing Lin Bai was willing to go, Zhao Huchen’s expression softened, smiled and said, "Then that’s the best, please!"

Lin Bai stepped forward.

As Lin Bai moved, Lin Ye followed.

Lin Bai said, "Lin Ye, you don’t need to go, just stay home!"

After speaking, Lin Bai continued to walk forward.

But Lin Ye also followed.

Lin Bai spoke to Lin Ye a few more times, but Lin Ye continued to follow Lin Bai ignoring everything else!

After several exchanges, Lin Bai helplessly said, "If you want to follow, then follow!"

At that moment, led by Zhao Huchen, Lin Bai and Lin Ye together left the Tang Family, heading to the Zhao Family!
