The Study!
Within the City Lord's Mansion, which was as impregnable as an iron fortress, outside the study and Scripture Repository.
Two people from Ten Thousand Saints Mountain, two from the Evil Moon Sect, the Black-Robed Man, and Lin Bai—a total of six people—had gathered there.
Lin Bai first looked toward the man and woman from Ten Thousand Saints Mountain.
The man appeared to be in his early twenties. Dressed like a scholar, he had delicate features, sword-shaped brows, starry eyes, and a handsome face.
Sensing Lin Bai's gaze, the man nodded and smiled at him without revealing any killing intent.
The woman beside him was dressed in white as pure as snow. Her figure was graceful and alluring, her face cold, her beautiful eyes frosty. She held a gleaming cold sword in her hand and was warily watching everyone.
The woman did not give Lin Bai a strong sense of danger. Instead, it was the man from Ten Thousand Saints Mountain. The moment he looked at Lin Bai, Lin Bai's scalp prickled. Clearly, he was not someone to be trifled with.
As for the Black-Robed Man, he was clad in black robes and a black bamboo hat, concealing his face and figure so thoroughly that no one could tell whether he was male or female.
The black robe he wore had been specially refined. It could conceal detection by divine sense, preventing even Lin Bai from discerning his cultivation.
Judging from the situation, however, the two from the Evil Moon Sect and the two from Ten Thousand Saints Mountain had clearly reached a stalemate with the Black-Robed Man.
The Black-Robed Man could face four opponents alone, so his methods and abilities were clearly not to be underestimated.
"Everyone, you've misunderstood. I merely arrived a step before you."
