Chapter 1188: Clues about the Sword Saint
"Your speed is truly impressive, huh?"
Lin Qiye looked at Baili Pangpang and Cao Yuan giggling foolishly on the sofa and无奈地笑道，"You all just arrived at【Utopia】a few hours ago and have already completely blended in?"
After being discovered by Lin Qiye, Baili Pangpang and Cao Yuan had simply moved from Room A1 to this place, and before leaving, they hadn't forgotten to bring along the drinks and fruit platters from their original room.
"We're just bored, that's all!" Baili Pangpang scratched his head. "Old Cao was the one who wanted to come—I was just following him to keep him safe..."
Cao Yuan opened his mouth, as if he wanted to offer another excuse, but after hesitation, he gave up on that idea.
In this situation, all insincere explanations were hollow and powerless.
"Isn't this the Ninth Seat? An old acquaintance!" Baili Pangpang immediately recognized He Lin and said with a strange laugh.
"So it's you." He Lin also recognized Baili Pangpang and the two of them and smiled. "Since you're here, let's drink a few rounds together."
Baili Pangpang and Cao Yuan sat down naturally, and the four of them gathered around the table, raising their glasses in unison.
"So, this time you came to【Utopia】, was it just to visit?" After some small talk, He Lin asked curiously.
Lin Qiye shook his head. "No. We're here to find someone this time."
"Find someone? Who?"
"Zhou Ping."
"The Great Xia Sword Saint?" He Lin was stunned. "No, wait, he should be called the Red Dust Sword Immortal now... Isn't he in Olympus?"
Hearing this, Lin Qiye and the others immediately became alert and asked:
"You know where he is?"
"Not exactly." He Lin put down the glass in his hand and said slowly, "About half a year ago, I was ordered by the President to infiltrate the 'Human Enclosure' in Olympus. While I was executing my mission there, I happened to see him.
At that time, he was wearing a dirty black shirt and carrying a sword case on his back. He was just walking down the street like that, and both his appearance and attire were completely out of place with the locals.
To be honest, I had never seen the Sword Saint's true face in Great Xia before, so I didn't recognize him. And to avoid exposing my identity, I didn't go up to greet him.
Later, a group of bandits happened to be robbing a woman on the street. They kicked her to the ground and took away her thirteen or fourteen-year-old daughter... You may not know this, but the 'Human Enclosure' in Olympus is extremely chaotic. Things like this happen all the time. In that kind of place, there are absolutely no concepts of human rights, morality, or law—it's a complete criminal paradise.
As a result, when the Sword Immortal saw this scene, he simply flicked his index finger against the sword case. The next moment, the heads of those bandits flew off."
He Lin glanced at Lin Qiye and the others, who were listening intently, took a small sip of wine, and his eyes filled with the color of memory:
"His sword energy was too fast. Not to mention the ordinary people inside the 'Human Enclosure,' even I didn't realize what had happened.
However, the Olympian gods who were constantly monitoring the 'Human Enclosure' would certainly not fail to detect the fluctuation of sword law.
Less than half a minute after the Sword Immortal killed those people, a god descended—that was the Olympian river god responsible for monitoring the 'Human Enclosure,' Potamos.
The moment this river god made his move, countless rivers rolled up and swept across the sky in a magnificent display. But before he could even approach the Sword Immortal, the Sword Immortal slapped the sword case, and a single sword instantly slashed out, cutting the river god clean in half at the waist."
Hiss—!
Lin Qiye and the others inhaled sharply.
In someone else's territory, killing a god whenever he felt like it—only Zhou Ping had this kind of boldness.
"And then? And then?" Baili Pangpang asked eagerly.
"After the river god was slashed, two more Olympian gods descended, though neither of them were Chief Gods. The Sword Immortal wielded his sword against them, and after a brief exchange, he killed both of them together...
I've lived this long, and it was the first time I ever saw someone kill a god, and so easily at that. Kill one if there's one, kill two if there are two. It was only then that I realized that this ordinary-looking man was the Red Dust Sword Immortal of Great Xia."
He Lin drained the whiskey in his glass in one gulp, let out a long breath, and continued:
"After three gods were killed in succession, the Olympus side should have also realized the severity of the situation. Just as several Chief Gods were about to descend, for some reason, the sky suddenly darkened.
A curtain of night descended over the entire 'Human Enclosure.' Then, a blurry starlight figure walked out from the horizon, exchanged a few words with the Sword Immortal, and the Sword Immortal followed her out of the 'Human Enclosure.'
What happened after that, I don't know."
When He Lin finished speaking, aside from the booming music and cheers from outside the glass windows, the entire private room fell into dead silence.
After an unknown period, Baili Pangpang slowly squeezed out a sentence:
"Senior Sword Saint... truly damn magnificent!"
Lin Qiye and the others glanced at each other and laughed simultaneously.
"However, did you come looking for the Sword Immortal for something urgent?" He Lin asked, puzzled.
"The situation in the Mist isn't looking good right now. We want to invite Senior Sword Saint back to guard Great Xia." Lin Qiye answered honestly.
"Indeed, Great Xia's current situation is too dangerous. Relying on a single Heavenly Court might not be enough to protect Great Xia... But what I know is already from half a year ago. Where he is now, I'm not sure."
"President Jinian said she has channels that can find out Senior Sword Saint's whereabouts."
"Hm?" He Lin raised an eyebrow, as if thinking of something. "Could it be... Yes, that place does hold some hope."
"Just what place is that?" Cao Yuan asked curiously.
"The specifics should wait for the President to explain. At this hour, the President should have just finished her studies and be preparing for bed. When she wakes up, she should take the initiative to find you." He Lin sighed. "The President, on a daily basis, has to handle Oath Society business, manage pixel manufacturing, and also study... She really is too hardworking."
"Yeah, she really has it tough."
The four of them chatted while drinking in the private room. It wasn't until the bar started to empty out that they finally left.
The moment they stepped out of the door, they saw a familiar figure walking out of the host club across the street.
Among her jet-black long hair peeked some silver strands. She wore a cape, held a bottle of wine in her left hand, raised her right hand high, and was excitedly waving at the five or six hosts gathered at the host club door:
"Goodbye... hic... I'll come find you all for drinks again in a couple days!"
She swayed back around, took another swig of wine into her mouth. Her slightly flushed face froze as she looked toward the bar door across the street, squinting her eyes, as if confirming something.
When Lin Qiye and the others at the bar door saw that familiar face, their expressions instantly became a sight to behold.
He Lin silently covered his face with his hand.
Jinian spotted their figures and her eyes flew wide open:
"卧槽!"
