The Battle Was About to Begin
"I remember the key to the Vermillion Bird Treasure Vault was also in his hands, right?"
"When you went to Famous Sword Manor back then, you should have killed him and taken back the key, but you failed."
The Holy Son stared at the Holy Daughter, a faintly mocking smile on his lips.
Seeing the Holy Son's mocking smile, the Holy Daughter said calmly and seriously, "He was too strong back then. Within that realm, he was practically a god—no one could stand against him!"
"It wasn't only me who fell at his hands. Jian Ruohan, Ye Jianqiu, Feng Yunxiu, Master Yishan, and the eighteen sword masters of Famous Sword Manor joined forces, yet none of us could withstand his sword!"
The Holy Daughter spoke coldly.
The Holy Son said coldly, "Stop making excuses for your failure. You shouldn't have been sent in the first place. If I had gone, he absolutely wouldn't have walked out of Famous Sword Manor alive!"
The Holy Daughter let out a disdainful, mocking laugh. Her eyes sank into memory as she recalled Lin Bai's peerless divine might and soaring sword intent during the battle for the title of East Ridge's Premier Sword Cultivator. Even now, she found that posture impossible to forget.
The Holy Daughter could scarcely believe that such an outstanding sword cultivator could exist in this world.
The Holy Son said coldly, "As it happens, I arrived in Pill King City today. It's time to settle the grudge between Lin Bai and our Five Venoms Sect. Besides, it's time we took back what belongs to us."
Zhang Pengyi said at this moment, "The Holy Son is right. In particular, Lin Bai can refine the Life-Extending Divine Pill and cure Serpent Heart Poison. That's not good news
