Chapter 1188 Sword Saint Clue

“You guys are really fast, huh?”

Lin Qiye looked at Baili Pangpang and Cao Yuan, who were giggling stupidly in front of the sofa, and said with a helpless smile, “You’ve only been in [Utopia] for a few hours, and you’re already completely integrated?”

After being discovered by Lin Qiye, Baili Pangpang and Cao Yuan came directly from room a1 to visit here, not forgetting to bring along the drinks and fruit platters from their room before leaving.

“We were just bored!” Baili Pangpang scratched his head, “It was Old Cao who wanted to come, I just wanted to follow him to protect him…”

Cao Yuan opened his mouth, seemingly wanting to make more excuses, but after hesitating for a moment, he abandoned the idea.

In this situation, any insincere explanation would be weak and futile.

“Isn’t this the Ninth Seat? An old acquaintance!” Baili Pangpang recognized He Lin at a glance and said with surprise.

“So it’s you guys.” He Lin also recognized Baili Pangpang and his companion, and said with a smile, “Since you’re here, let’s have a few drinks together.”

Baili Pangpang and Cao Yuan took the opportunity to sit down, and the four gathered around the table, raising their glasses to drink together.

“So, you came to [Utopia] this time just to visit?” After some small talk, He Lin asked curiously.

Lin Qiye shook his head, “No, we came to find someone.”

“Find someone? Who?”

“Zhou Ping.”

“The Great Xia Sword Saint?” He Lin was stunned, “No, he should be called the Mortal Realm Sword Immortal now… isn’t he in Olympus?”

Hearing this, all three of Lin Qiye’s group perked up and asked:

“You know his whereabouts?”

“Not exactly.” He Lin put down his glass and slowly said, “About half a year ago, I was infiltrating the ‘human circle’ in Olympus under the chairman’s orders. While I was carrying out my mission there, I happened to see him.

At that time, he was wearing a dirty black shirt, carrying a sword case on his back, walking on the street. Both his appearance and attire stood out from 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. To avoid exposing my identity, I didn’t approach him.

Later, there was a group of bandits who robbed a woman on the street, kicked her to the ground, and kidnapped her thirteen or fourteen-year-old daughter… You may not know this, but the ‘human circle’ in Olympus is very chaotic. This kind of thing is commonplace. In that place, there are absolutely no human rights, morals, or laws – it’s a complete criminal paradise.

As a result, the Sword Immortal witnessed this scene, and he gently flicked his sword case with his index finger. The next moment, the heads of those bandits flew off.”

He Lin glanced at Lin Qiye and the others who were listening attentively, took a sip of wine, and a reminiscent look appeared in his eyes.

“His sword energy was too fast. Not just the ordinary people in the ‘human circle’, even I couldn’t react to what had happened.

However, the Olympian gods who constantly monitor the ‘human circle’ would not fail to notice the fluctuation of the Sword Law.

Half a minute after the Sword Immortal killed those people, a god descended – the Olympian River God Potamos, who was responsible for monitoring the ‘human circle’.

This River God’s first move was the magnificent sight of thousands of rivers rolling back to the sky, but before he could reach the Sword Immortal, the Sword Immortal tapped his sword case, and a sword instantly slashed out, cutting the River God in half at the waist.”

Hiss—!

Lin Qiye and the others drew in a sharp breath.

To kill a god so decisively on someone else’s territory – only Zhou Ping could have such confidence.

“Then what? Then what?” Baili Pangpang asked eagerly.

“After the River God was cut down, two more Olympian gods descended, though neither were main gods. The Sword Immortal fought with them briefly with his sword, then killed them both together…

In all my life, it was the first time I’d seen someone slay gods, and so easily at that – killing one when one came, killing a pair when two came. It was then that I realized this ordinary-looking man was Great Xia’s Mortal Realm Sword Immortal.”

He Lin drained the whiskey in his glass in one gulp, took a deep breath, and continued,

“After three consecutive gods were killed, Olympus must have realized the seriousness of the problem. Just as several main gods were about to descend, somehow, the sky suddenly darkened.

A night shrouded the entire ‘human circle’, and then a blurry starlight figure walked out from the horizon, talked with the Sword Immortal for a while, and then the Sword Immortal left the ‘human circle’ with her.

What happened after that, I don’t know.”

As He Lin’s words fell, the entire private room, except for the roaring music and cheers outside the glass window, fell into dead silence.

After who knows how long, Baili Pangpang slowly squeezed out a sentence:

“Senior Sword Saint… is so damn badass!”

Lin Qiye and the others looked at each other and all burst into laughter.

“But why are you looking for the Sword Immortal? Is there something urgent?” He Lin asked puzzledly.

“The situation in the mist is a bit precarious now. We want to ask Senior Sword Saint to return and guard Great Xia,” Lin Qiye said truthfully.

“Indeed, Great Xia’s situation is too dangerous now. Relying solely on the Heavenly Court may not be enough to protect Great Xia completely… But what I know is from half a year ago. It’s hard to say where he is now.”

“Chairman Ji Nian said she has a way to find out Senior Sword Saint’s whereabouts.”

“Oh?” He Lin raised an eyebrow, as if thinking of something. “Could it be… Yes, there is indeed hope there.”

“What place is that exactly?” Cao Yuan asked curiously.

“For the specifics, wait for the chairman to tell you. At this hour, the chairman should have just finished studying and be preparing for bed. When she wakes up, she should actively seek you out.” He Lin sighed, “The chairman is usually busy with Evil Association affairs, busy with pixel manufacturing, busy studying… It’s really too hard on her.”

“Yes, she does have it tough.”

The four chatted and drank in the private room until the bar started to close, then they left.

As soon as they walked out the door, they saw a familiar figure coming out from the host club across the street.

Among her black hair were traces of silver-white strands. She wore a cape, holding a bottle of wine in her left hand, while her right hand was raised high, excitedly waving to the five or six hosts crowded at the entrance of the club:

“Goodbye… hic… I’ll come back to drink with you guys in a few days!”

She turned around unsteadily, took a swig from the bottle, and her slightly tipsy face froze as she looked at the bar entrance across the street, her eyes narrowing as if trying to confirm something.

At the bar entrance, Lin Qiye and the others saw that familiar face, and their expressions instantly became interesting.

He Lin silently covered his forehead with his hand.

Ji Nian recognized their figures clearly and suddenly widened her eyes:

“Holy shit!”
