"A trustworthy person".
Su Bai left a message and, without waiting for Wu Zhenyao and the others to reply, disappeared without warning.
"This guy, really, he didn't even bother to explain the situation!"
Chu Nishang said with a helpless expression.
Tianyi rolled her eyes at her, "Explaining the situation is a lie. I reckon you just want to see Su Bai more often."
"That's for sure."
Chu Nishang swallowed hard before turning to look at Feng Lili and her group.
When she saw Hu Buxiao again, her heart skipped a beat, and a sense of hostility arose for no reason.
"You little fox, your tail is almost showing. You wouldn't be thinking of stealing my Daoist partner, would you?"
"What do you mean by 'Daoist partner'? Su Bai has only been in the Heavenly Path Realm for a short time. How did he suddenly become your Daoist partner? Besides, at your age, you're old enough to be his ancestor. You still want to be his Daoist partner? Do you want to be an old cow eating young grass?"
Hu Buxiao had long noticed that Chu Nishang's gaze towards Su Bai was suspicious.
After she asked that question, she immediately realized that this person was her love rival.
For a moment, she didn't give him a pleasant look.
"Little fox, isn't it said that the fox clan is the most romantic? Judging from your fiery temper, you don't seem like a member of the spirit fox clan. Are you perhaps an outsider who took advantage of the situation to sneak in?"
"Besides, although I don't know the exact age of Sword Immortal Su Bai, anyone who can cultivate to this level must be at least ten thousand years old. I'm only eighteen thousand years old now, unlike you, who looks like a twenty-thousand-year-old old fox!"
Chu Nishang responded with a cold, sarcastic tone.
"You dare call me an old fox? You deserve to die, you bitch, come and fight!"
Hu Buxiao was furious, and a powerful aura immediately emanated from his entire body.
Chu Nishang raised an eyebrow, unleashing her full power, and began to challenge her.
Seeing this, the people around them quietly moved to another spot to make room for the two of them.
Only Hu Shan, alone, walked to the city wall with a heavy expression, staring blankly ahead at the endless desolate land.
"How should I address you, senior?"
On the other side, Feng Lili and Ao Chuan bowed respectfully to Wu Zhenyao.
“My name is Wu Zhenyao. I am in charge of guarding the Eastern War Zone of the human race. The little guys here call me Grandpa Wu, while Su Bai calls me Old Wu. You can call me whatever you want. We are on the border, so there are no rules.”
Wu Zhenyao laughed.
"Um...you guys call Su Bai Su Bai?"
Upon hearing this, Feng Lili's expression turned somewhat strange.
Ao Chuan, standing to the side, also looked at Wu Zhenyao with a puzzled expression.
Clearly, they hadn't expected that they would simply refer to Su Bai by his name.
"Um...is there something wrong with this?" Wu Zhenyao asked, somewhat puzzled.
Tianyi, who was standing next to him, seemed to realize something, and a knowing look flashed in her eyes.
“Well, I remember that according to the rules of your human race, those who possess the items of the Human Emperor are considered prodigies who have the opportunity to become the Human Emperor. Even if they have not become the Human Emperor, they should still be called the Human Ruler.”
"The Emperor... Could it be, could it be, could it be that the sword in Su Bai's hand is truly the Emperor's Sword?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Zhenyao couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Not only him, but also a group of human powerhouses were shocked at this moment.
Although they had made such speculations before, they had not been confirmed, and everything remained unknown.
But now, it has been confirmed by Feng Lili that Su Bai possesses an item belonging to the Human Emperor!
And the most eye-catching thing about him is that sword!
In other words, the sword in Su Bai's hand, just as they guessed, is the Human Emperor's Sword, a supreme treasure of the human race born with heaven and earth!
"This... Logically speaking, the characteristics of the Human Emperor Sword should be extremely obvious. How come... you didn't notice?"
Feng Lili was somewhat surprised.
Whoosh!
Tianyi flicked her finger, and the image of Su Bai's longsword materialized in front of her.
Upon seeing the seven-colored light covering the sword, Feng Lili understood the reason behind it.
"We have some doubts about Su... the King's longsword, and we have thought of asking about it, but we have not had the chance. As you have seen, the King has been busy lately. He came here only to help us kill the foreign tribes and will not stay here for long."
Wu Zhenyao sighed.
Upon hearing this, Feng Lili remained silent, but instead flicked her wrist, conjuring the shape of Su Bai's longsword from before.
When they saw that golden longsword covered with patterns of mountains, rivers, plants, the sun, moon, and stars, all the human powerhouses present couldn't help but exude a vast aura unique to the human race!
"It's the Emperor's Sword! It's the Emperor's Sword!"
"I never imagined that I would see the Human Emperor's Sword appear in my lifetime. My human race is saved! My human race is saved!"
"I knew it! My human race has always had hope, my human race has always been great, and it has never declined!"
"Mountains, rivers, grasses, trees, sun, moon, and stars—the vastness of our human race embodies the spirit of standing tall between heaven and earth!"
"..."
The group of humans stared at the illusory image of the longsword before them, their eyes filled with tears. The blood flowing through their bodies surged, boiled, and burned inexplicably at this moment!
It was as if the phantom of the longsword before them was not a sword, but rather the hope and faith for which they were willing to dedicate everything!
The appearance of this sword also explains the significance of their guarding this place for tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of years!
"Hahaha, I knew it! The man I've set my sights on is definitely no ordinary man!"
Upon noticing this scene, Chu Nishang, who was locked in combat with Hu Buxiao, also revealed an extremely arrogant smile at that moment.
But at that moment, her eyes unknowingly reddened, and wisps of mist filled the corners of her eyes.
