Chapter 7346 There’s no going back!

"Originally, my sister and Princess Chenxian were going to come here in person, but the geniuses from Phoenix Valley and Chunyang Sect suddenly came to visit today, so they had to fool them a little!"

"And we have received an order to withdraw our troops. After attending the weddings of the Saints of Fantian Sect and Baitian Sect, we will withdraw from the territory of Qiye Shenzong."

"Brother-in-law, the news that the Saints of Fantian Sect Meng Qinxian and Baitian Sect are getting married on the same day, you should have received an invitation to Jiuyou Demon Palace, right?"

Chu Zimo's small mouth spoke a lot of news in a row, which made Lin Bai a little stunned for a while.

Did the Chu Kingdom finally order the withdrawal?

Originally, Chu Zimo, Chu Tinghan, Chu Tingxue, and Princess Chenxian led nearly 20 to 30 million troops from the Liang Palace and the Hong Prince's Palace into the territory of Qiye Shenzong, just to rescue Qiye Shenzong.

Unfortunately, before they arrived at the capital territory of Qiye Shenzong, Qiye Shenzong was quickly destroyed by Chunyang Sect and Phoenix Valley.

The fire warriors of the Seven Nights Divine Sect had to flee.

The Seven Nights Divine Sect was destroyed, so there was no need for the reinforcements from the Chu State to move forward.

But for some reason, the Chu State did not order the reinforcements to withdraw, but instead asked them to find a place to stay inside the Seven Nights Divine Sect and wait for subsequent orders.

According to Lin Bai's previous calculations... Chu State's assistance to the Seven Nights Divine Sect this time had two purposes.

The first goal was that they really came to assist the Seven Nights Divine Sect.

As a prosperous sect that had signed an "offensive and defensive alliance", facing the Seven Nights Divine Sect's request for help, Wansheng Mountain, Chu State, and Qitian Sect had no reason to refuse.

So Lin Bai believed... In the first time, Chu State, Wansheng Mountain, and Qitian Sect all sincerely wanted to help the Seven Nights Divine Sect overcome the difficulties, so they each sent troops and delegations into the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect.

For the Chu State, when they saw that it was hopeless to assist the Seven Nights Divine Sect, they had to start the second goal.

That is to seize the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect.

After the demise of the Seven Nights Divine Sect, there was no prominent power, and the entire territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect was considered an unowned land.

Since it was an unowned land, anyone could occupy it.

The State of Chu ordered the troops of Prince Hong's Mansion and Prince Liang's Mansion to be stationed in the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect, waiting for subsequent orders.

If there was serious chaos within the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect, then the State of Chu would take this opportunity to seize the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect.

Unfortunately.

Perhaps the State of Chu did not consider that it was at this moment that the army of the Northern Territory suddenly arrived before the Yongye Pass and the Tianya Pass.

For the expansion of territory, the State of Chu paid more attention to whether it could defend the territory.

For the civil strife in the Eastern Territory, the State of Chu was more worried about the invasion of foreign enemies.

I believe that at that time in the Golden Palace of the Emperor of Chu, the think tanks of the Emperor of Chu must have gone through rigorous thinking and discussion, and finally decided to deal with external factors first before approaching the idea of ​​expanding territory.

Therefore, the Emperor of Chu ordered the reinforcements of the Seven Nights Divine Sect to stay where they were and wait for follow-up orders, while Chu focused all its attention on the border at this time.

After the battle on the border, Lin Bai defeated Bu Junfeng and became famous in one battle.

Not only did he become the most dazzling prodigy in the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm, but Lin Bai also fought as the emperor of the Nine Nether Demon Palace, which also made the Nine Nether Demon Palace recognized by many Eastern Region warriors and eliminated their grudges.

And under the watchful eyes of the three ancient sects, since the Northern Region was defeated, it would be impossible to invade the Eastern Region again in a short time.

At least not yet.

Chu was able to free up his hands to clean up the chaos in the Eastern Region.

But at the same time, without the pressure from the Northern Region, Wansheng Mountain and Qitian Sect were also able to free up their hands.

Wansheng Mountain and Qitian Sect naturally saw Chu's thoughts, so Lin Bai speculated that before the celebration banquet, the senior officials and saints of Wansheng Mountain and Qitian Sect must have secretly negotiated with Chu in Tianya Pass.

Chu wanted to annex the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect, and Wansheng Mountain and Qitian Sect naturally did not want to see Chu become more powerful.

From the situation at the celebration banquet later, it seems that Chu's idea was unanimously opposed by Wansheng Mountain and Qitian Sect, and ultimately failed.

Chu realized that the idea of ​​quietly annexing the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect while taking advantage of the chaos was completely unrealistic.

So the scene at the "celebration banquet" at Tianya Pass appeared, where His Royal Highness the Crown Prince reached an agreement with the Nine Nether Demon Palace to give the Nine Nether Demon Palace half a year to recapture the Seven Nights Divine Sect. Otherwise, Chu would come forward.

Since Chu has temporarily given up the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect, it is natural that the reinforcements left here would not withdraw.

Even if Chu is unwilling to withdraw, the Nine Nether Demon Palace will ask Chu to withdraw its reinforcements.

So now Chu Zimo's Liang Wangfu Corps and Chenxian County Lord's Hong Qin Wangfu Corps have received withdrawal orders from Chu at the same time.

Lin Bai's mind flashed with thoughts, and he finally connected all the things that happened during this period.

"It's really outrageous."

"A small decision can have such a strong reaction!"

When Lin Bai recalled these things, he couldn't help but feel a little scared, and felt like he was walking on thin ice. Once they made any small mistake, it would very likely bring disaster.

"My two sisters are here."

Just as Chu Zimo and Lin Bai were chatting, there were sounds of breaking through the air from the clouds in the distance.

Under the protection of a team of soldiers, Chu Tinghan, Chu Tingxue, and Princess Chenxian appeared above the clouds.

Lin Bai saw the expressions of the three women from afar. Except for Chu Tingxue who had a slight smile on her face, Princess Chenxian and Chu Tinghan had cold faces and sharp eyes like swords.

They also saw Lin Bai from afar, but they only took a glance and then set their eyes on Yi Jinyun on the cloud boat.

Swish, swish, swish... The escorting soldiers did not approach the cloud boat, but set up strict control around it. Chu Tinghan, Chu Tingxue, and Princess Chenxian landed directly on the cloud boat.

"Congratulations, Prince Qin, you have a beautiful woman!"

Chu Tinghan had just landed, biting her teeth and squeezed out these words from her teeth.

Her eyes kept wandering on Yi Jinyun's body, and her eyes kept revealing frost.

Yi Jinyun tried her best to keep a kind smile on her face, but facing the pressure of the daughter of the military king, she also felt a strong pressure.

They obviously knew each other. Even if they were not very familiar with each other, they had met several times on the birthday of Emperor Chu.

Princess Chenxian, who was wearing a white dress and had a beautiful face, had her red lips slightly closed, her eyes were leisurely and sad, but she didn't speak in the end.

After Chu Tinghan and Princess Chenxian arrived, Chu Zimo smirked twice, cast a look at Lin Bai that said "brother-in-law, I wish you good luck", and then quietly hid aside.

"Everyone, long time no see."

Lin Bai said with a smile.

It has been more than a year since Lin Bai was abducted by the warriors of Jiuyou Demon Palace and taken to Jiuyou City.

And after a year of separation, this is the first time he has seen Chu Tinghan, Princess Chenxian and others.

The last time he returned to the territory of Qiye Shenzong, Lin Bai wanted to visit them, but found that they suddenly left the army and disappeared.

Later, Lin Bai had to go to Yongye Pass, so he didn't see them.

Lin Bai gestured to the left and right, and Old Wen tactfully dismissed all the warriors around.

Including Yi Gu, Yi Jinse, Yi Jinyun and others, they all retreated back to the cabin.

On the entire Yunzhou board, only Chu Tinghan, Chu Tingxue, Princess Chenxian, Chu Zimo, and Lin Bai were left.

After everyone left, Princess Chenxian took two steps forward, frowned her willow-leaf eyebrows, and asked in confusion:

"What's going on?"

Lin Bai sighed bitterly: "Can't you see this? It's a political marriage forced by helplessness."

The murderous intent in Chu Tinghan's eyes still did not dissipate, and Princess Chenxian nodded thoughtfully after hearing this.

Chu Tingxue smiled and said: "Whether it was because of the sudden words of the First Son of God at the Tianya Pass celebration banquet, which led to the Nine Nether Demon Palace and the State of Chu reaching a verbal agreement to recover the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect within half a year..."

"Or the sudden invasion of the Qitian Sect by the Southern Region, this made the Nine Nether Demon Palace feel anxious and pressured, and they were eager to stabilize the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect."

"But if you want to stabilize the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect, you must first recover other forces within the territory."

"Then the Nine Nether Demon Palace must have reached some kind of agreement with the Seven Nights Divine Sect, so that the Seven Nights Divine Sect surrendered to the Nine Nether Demon Palace."

"But..."

When Chu Tingxue said this, he chuckled and said: "After all, the agreement with the Nine Nether Demon Palace was completed by Brother Lin."

"The Seven Nights Divine Sect must not dare to trust Brother Lin completely, so they had to propose the idea of ​​marriage and completely tie Lin Bai to their boat."

"This is a very simple political means, and it is also the most useful political means!"

Lin Bai looked at Chu Tingxue twice more, and he was also a little afraid of this woman.

After all, in Lin Bai's mind, the two smartest women in the entire Demon Realm East Region are Li Guxian of Jiuyou Demon Palace, who directed the drama of Jiuyou Demon Palace rebuilding the mountain gate; the other is Chu Tingxue, who is good at arranging troops and conquering cities.

These two women are extremely smart, but their intelligence is in different fields.

Li Guxian is in the layout, while Chu Tingxue is in the conquest.

"Princess Tingxue is really smart!"

Lin Bai nodded, tacitly agreeing with Chu Tingxue's guess.

Chu Tinghan heard the murderous aura on his face and dissipated a lot. He walked to Lin Bai and said:

"Is it necessary to do this?"

"Is there no other better way? Must we get married?"

Lin Bai smiled and asked back: "Then do you think there is any better way?"

"This..." Chu Tinghan was speechless for a moment, turned his head to look at his sister, and asked her if there was any other better way.

Chu Tingxue was so smart that even if he had some other ideas in his mind, he didn't dare to say anything casually at the moment, otherwise he didn't know how big a mess it would cause.

So when she faced her sister Chu Tinghan's gaze, she could only smile bitterly and shook her head.

Chu Tinghan sighed helplessly when she saw this.

Princess Chenxian didn't dwell on this matter, but asked: "After attending the wedding banquet of Meng Qinxian, the Saint of Fantian Sect, and Nie Shang, the Saint of Baitian Sect, we will return to Chu."

"Prince Qin, will you go back with us?"

Go back? ... Lin Bai sighed with some melancholy, and recalled the scenes in Tianya Pass, and he shook his head sadly.

"I can't go back."

Lin Bai sighed: "Now all the warriors in the entire demon world know that I am the emperor's son of Jiuyou Demon Palace."

"Even if I don't recognize this identity, people in the world still see me like this."

"I am now following you back to Chu. Of course, under the protection of Chu, I can't make any mistakes. But once I leave the protection of Chu, I don't know how many people will poke my back and scold me."

Princess Chenxian and Chu Tinghan were a little sad when they heard this. Chu Tinghan said indignantly:

"If I had known this, I shouldn't have let you go alone to support the Seven Nights Divine Sect. If you follow our army, these things will never happen!"

Will they not happen? ... Although Lin Bai did not refute Chu Tinghan's words, he had other ideas in his heart.

According to the fact that Lin Bai has been in the Nine Nether Demon Palace for more than a year, he has already discovered that... the Nine Nether Demon Palace kidnapping Lin Bai is definitely a very important part of Li Guxian's plan.

And making Lin Bai the emperor's son is another part of the Demon Palace's ten thousand year plan.

Because Li Guxian has already calculated that once the Nine Nether Demon Palace rebuilds the mountain gate, based on the demonized image of the Nine Nether Demon Palace by the Eastern Region warriors in the past 100,000 years, it will definitely be strongly resisted by the entire Eastern Region warriors.

At this time, someone needs to stand up and let the Nine Nether Demon Palace appear in the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm with a brand new look.

And this person must have extremely high prestige in the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm, be deeply supported by the warriors in the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm, and have a great reputation.

It is best to have connections with Wansheng Mountain, Chu State, Qitian Sect, Qiye Shenzong, and the top sects in the Eastern Region.

Only the appearance of such a person will make the Eastern Region warriors feel less resistant after hearing that the Nine Nether Demon Palace has rebuilt the mountain gate.

There are not many people who can meet these conditions in the entire Eastern Region of the Demon Realm, and Lin Bai happens to be one of them.

But the people who can do these things are either the saints of the top sects in the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm, or the prodigies of the Dingsheng Sect. It is impossible for them to join the Nine Nether Demon Palace easily.

On the contrary, Lin Bai, who comes from the lower world and does not belong to the Demon Realm at all, has made such a great reputation in the Demon Realm.

This obviously became the best choice for the Nine Nether Demon Palace.

Later, when Li Guxian was in the imperial capital, he suddenly discovered that Lin Bai actually possessed the ability of the Saint Lord of the Nine Nether Demon Palace 100,000 years ago.

This series of developments made the Nine Nether Demon Palace determined to bring Lin Bai into the Demon Palace.

Even if Lin Bai was unwilling to join the Demon Palace, the Nine Nether Demon Palace would force Lin Bai to join the Demon Palace through tough means.

So... according to Lin Bai's inference, even if he did not go alone to support the Seven Nights Divine Sect, the Nine Nether Demon Palace would find other ways to take Lin Bai away from the reinforcements.

After all, the Nine Nether Demon Palace also knew that Lin Bai had left the Chu imperial capital and left the sight of the powerful existence of the Chu royal family. This was the best time.

They would never miss this opportunity.
