The battle of the supres concluded, with Qian Yuan Sword Saint turning the tide against all odds, slaying six young supres, and letting one escape.
This feat shocked the world, and various factions extended olive branches.
"Young friend, you are a lone cultivator without a sect. Why not join our Qing Tian Dao Xin Sect? We have a Morning Glow Realm ancestor's swordsmanship stele for you to study, and we'll appoint you as the Sword Peak Master, equal to the Sect Master. How about it?" A Moon Shine Realm sword cultivator transmitted his voice.
Qian Yuan Sword Saint politely declined, "My path of swordsmanship is a unique one, unprecedented and unparalleled. No one can teach ."
The Moon Shine Realm sword cultivator sighed in regret and did not persuade further.
A visitor from a forbidden land transmitted his voice, "Qian Yuan Sword Saint, my master is a half-step Morning Glow Realm Great Being. He wishes to take you as his disciple and pass on his legacy. Are you willing?"
"No," Qian Yuan Sword Saint shook his head and said calmly, "Give ti, and I will surpass the Morning Glow Realm and reach even greater heights. Why would I need to take soone as my master? Besides, I already have a master."
The visitor from the forbidden land snorted coldly, displeased, "You don't know what's good for you."
One by one, top faction guests transmitted their voices to Qian Yuan Sword Saint, but he refused them all.
The chief eunuch of the Great Jin court loudly announced, "His Majesty summons Minister ng Qin's disciple—Qian Yuan Sword Saint, to enter the hall for an audience."
Qian Yuan Sword Saint secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Dealing with these old monsters' enthusiastic invitations was more exhausting than a bloody battle.
Golden Throne Hall.
The court officials turned to look at Qian Yuan Sword Saint, dressed in black and wearing a smiling mask, as he strode confidently into the hall.
"Greetings, Your Majesty," Qian Yuan Sword Saint nodded slightly, his back straight as a rod.
After all, Qian Yuan Sword Saint was not a citizen of Great Jin. Coupled with his formidable strength and unparalleled talent, no one dared to criticize him for not bowing to the emperor.
"Previously, I made a promise. Whoever could achieve total victory without defeat, I would grant them one wish. What is your wish? Speak," Dongfang Liuli, with her long, slender legs crossed and her red eyes exuding both allure and authority, asked with a hint of consideration.
Qian Yuan Sword Saint replied calmly, "I rely killed a few arrogant scoundrels. There are many heroes present today whom I have not fought. How can I claim total victory without defeat?"
The Empress's reward was undoubtedly a contract. Accepting it ant becoming her pawn.
Whether you liked it or not, at least in the eyes of the world, that would be the perception.
ng Qingzhou did not want to place all his bets on the Empress. Even a fool knows not to put all their eggs in one basket.
"Oh?"
Dongfang Liuli's soft and charming voice echoed through the capital, "Who dares to challenge Qian Yuan Sword Saint in the sa realm? Step forward. If no one dares, it will be considered a forfeit."
"Who dares!?"
The last two words were spoken with a heavy tone, carrying a hint of threat.
Those who were initially eager to challenge suddenly beca clear-headed.
Goodness, a blatant threat!
ng Qingzhou thought for a mont and understood the Empress's intention. She coveted Qian Yuan Sword Saint's unparalleled talent and was determined to bring him under her wing.
'Damn evil antagonist, you want to capture both my avatar and my true self!'
'How selfish can you be!?'
For a long ti, the entire Imperial Capital was silent, afraid of making any noise and being mistaken for volunteering to fight, only to be beaten to death by Qian Yuan Sword Saint.
Dongfang Liuli smiled and said, "Qian Yuan Sword Saint is indeed formidable. In this vast Imperial Capital, with guests from all directions, no one dares to take a single strike from you. Does this an you have achieved total victory without defeat?"
Qian Yuan Sword Saint sighed helplessly and said, "I suppose."
"Then, state your request. Within reason, I can fulfill it," Dongfang Liuli said.
ng Qingzhou ground his teeth in frustration, his head aching.
What do I want?
I want to spank you! Can you fulfill that?
Suddenly, ng Qingzhou had a flash of inspiration and controlled Qian Yuan Sword Saint to say, "I humbly request Your Majesty to allow my master to leave Great Jin and travel the world with . My master is free-spirited and enjoys a carefree life, not wanting to be confined to one place. Please grant this small request."
Qian Yuan Sword Saint's tone was sincere, a heartfelt plea that moved heaven and earth!
After surviving life-and-death trials and battling several young supres, even enduring two blasts of Realm-Ending Incense, he only made a small request.
The court officials murmured among themselves:
"Sword cultivators are indeed magnanimous, clear in their grudges, willing to pay such a price to take their master on a journey."
"Although Minister ng serves the emperor, he has been loyal and has not wronged Great Jin. Qian Yuan Sword Saint has no ties to Great Jin but has slain enemies for us, bearing the enmity of seven top factions. This request is truly not excessive."
"Not only is it not excessive, it's too small. Her Majesty, with her magnanimous heart, will surely agree readily."
"Indeed, Her Majesty's generosity will likely make her feel indebted and offer a grand gift."
...
...
Qin Fenghuo's mouth twitched, wanting to speak but holding back.
What the hell, you foolish officials, Minister ng is the Empress's wife!
If soone wanted to take your precious wife, would you smile and send her off with a grand gift? Would you also say, "I packed so protection in the bag, please take good care of her."
Qin Fenghuo was fuming, but he couldn't say anything.
"Jiang, say sothing!" Qin Fenghuo almost roared in a transmitted voice.
Jiang Canghai rubbed his ears and shrugged, responding, "There's nothing we can do. Qian Yuan Sword Saint's request is reasonable. Refusing would make Great Jin seem petty, but agreeing is impossible. It's a deadlock."
"Useless! What's the point of you?" Qin Fenghuo fud.
In the court, a few insiders silently glanced at the Empress's darkened face and then at the calm ng Qingzhou, speechless.
Qian Yuan Sword Saint listened intently, not hearing the Empress's response for a long ti, and couldn't help but remind, "Your Majesty? Your Majesty!"
Dongfang Liuli clenched her pale fingers into a fist, her chest heaving with anger.
Good, good!
Well done, Qian Yuan Sword Saint!
I let you make a request, and you want to take my wife away. You're sothing else.
The Empress didn't know why she felt so irritated, like a little cat whose favorite toy was being taken away, about to explode.
"Change your request. Whether it's Immortal Grade Spiritual Treasures, a title, ancient relics, or immortal bones, I can fulfill it," Dongfang Liuli said, trying her best to suppress her emotions.
Qian Yuan Sword Saint decisively shook his head and refused, "No, I only want to take my master away and live a life far from the mundane world."
Dongfang Liuli gritted her teeth, her smile stiff, "Qian Yuan Sword Saint, I'm not negotiating with you. Don't be ungrateful."
"I ca today only to take my master away. Even if it ans death, I will fulfill his wish!" Qian Yuan Sword Saint said firmly, his tone resolute.
Dongfang Liuli's forehead creased with three black lines as she rubbed her temples.
What is going on?
Originally, she wanted to test Qian Yuan Sword Saint to see what kind of wish he would make.
If Qian Yuan Sword Saint made an outrageous demand, then he was definitely not ng Qingzhou, and there was no need to verify further.
If Qian Yuan Sword Saint had no other desires and seed like a salt fish...
The Empress would personally tear off Qian Yuan Sword Saint's smiling mask.
But now, he did make a request. Is it an outrageous demand?
If not, he's trying to take the emperor's wife.
If so, Qian Yuan Sword Saint doesn't even know that Minister ng Qin is the Empress' Husband. The request is reasonable...
