I Became the Legendary Emperor Throughout the Ages After I Started Giving Away My Territory
Chapter Summary
”Lin Beifan waved his hand: “Considering your good intentions, I will not hold the crime of trespassing into the imperial palace against you! He had not expected that by merely taking in this elder, his national power would increase so much, and he would be directly awarded a supreme skill. ”Chai Yuxin approached the elderly man, ready to ask him, but to her surprise, the old man bowed with his hands clasped: “Madam, what are your orders?
“That’s enough for now!
” Lin Beifan said, taking a sip of tea to moisten his throat.
“Is it ending so soon?
” the elder asked reluctantly.
Lin Beifan replied somewhat irritably, “I’ve been speaking for an entire hour, isn’t that enough?
”The elder looked outside at the sky and noticed that night had fallen.
He sighed, “I hadn’t realized so much time had passed!
Time truly flies, indifferent to day and night!
”“Do you still wish to take me as your disciple now?
” Lin Beifan asked.
The old man shook his head vigorously: “No longer, I dare not!
My knowledge is shallow, I have nothing to teach you!
”“Good that you know!
”Lin Beifan waved his hand: “Considering your good intentions, I will not hold the crime of trespassing into the imperial palace against you!
Leave now, I am preparing to retire for the night!
”“I cannot leave just yet.
I have an urgent request, and I hope you can fulfill it!
”“What is it, let’s hear it?
” Lin Beifan said.
“I wish to take you as my master and to learn the supreme swordsmanship.
Please grant me this honor!
” The old man knelt on the ground and spoke loudly.
Lin Beifan exclaimed, “F*ck!
”He was completely dumbfounded!
Had this old man lost his mind?
Did he actually want to take him as a master?
Please, he was none other than the Emperor himself.
How could he possibly take someone as a disciple?
Besides, the elder before him could be his ancestor.
What would it look like for him to accept him as a disciple?
“Are you confused?
Get up, you could be my grandfather!
” Lin Beifan exclaimed in shock.
The elder shook his head, his gaze unwaveringly firm: “I am not confused!
I have come to a realization.
The reason I have made no progress over the years is firstly due to my limited talent and secondly, because it is so hard to find a true master!
Without the guidance of a good mentor, there is no way to reach new heights in the art of swordsmanship!
”“Nowadays, it’s not easy to come across a master like you!
Master, your understanding of the sword has reached an unfathomable level!
Your words are like the principles of the great Dao, enlightening to your disciple, loosening the bounds of my realm!
”“Therefore, I do not wish to miss this opportunity, and I implore you, Master, to take me as your disciple!
”After saying this, the elder bowed again, his attitude extremely devout.
Lin Beifan was in a difficult position: “You’ll be laughed at by others if you do this!
”“Let them laugh!
”The elder said indifferently.
“I am already of old age, with one foot in the grave.
I’ve come to terms with everything; what use is a little reputation to me?
It’s better to use the remaining time to chase what I desire!
Before I die, I wish to take one more step forward and to witness that supreme realm!
”“I’ve realized that this wish can only be fulfilled with you, Master!
So please, take me as your disciple, guide me through the mysteries of the sword path, and help me advance further!
”“But, I do not know martial arts, nor can I teach you anything…”“Master, you are being modest!
You may not know martial arts, but you understand the sword, you understand it better than anyone else!
Just a few simple words from you have benefited me greatly, I’ve learned so much!
I believe that you have a lot of valuable knowledge to share, so please do not hesitate to teach me!
” the elder bowed again.
Lin Beifan advised, “There’s no need for formal discipleship, we can just exchange knowledge!
”“It must be a formal discipleship!
If I don’t become your disciple, will you teach me the truly valuable techniques?
” the elder countered.
He’s truly become cunning with age!
If the relationship were just ordinary, Lin Beifan would not share his best techniques with him.
It’s a human choice to hold back when dealing with others.
But if the two were to form a master-disciple relationship, then the situation would be quite different.
In this era, the bond between master and disciple is very strong, second only to the father-son relationship.
As the saying goes: “Once a teacher, forever a father…”Therefore, it’s highly likely that Lin Beifan would pass on his valuable knowledge to his disciple.
At this moment, Liu Eunuch whispered, “Your Majesty, why not accept him!
After all, he is a powerful expert at the peak realm of Imperial Qi.
”Struck by the thought, Lin Beifan found the idea very reasonable!
So, Lin Beifan stretched out both hands and helped the elder up from the ground: “Disciple, please rise quickly!
”The elder was overjoyed: “Thank you, Master, for making this possible!
” “Ding!
As the player’s national power has greatly increased, your strength has been synchronously enhanced, and you are rewarded with the ‘Scattered Hands Eight Slaps’ technique!
”“The ‘Scattered Hands Eight Slaps’ is a supreme skill created by a Grandmaster, encompassing a myriad of infinite variations all within eight essential forms.
The moves are as free as the heart desires, like a celestial steed traversing the starry sky, with mysterious changes between reality and illusion, unconstrained by any rules or limitations!
”Lin Beifan was very pleased.
He had not expected that by merely taking in this elder, his national power would increase so much, and he would be directly awarded a supreme skill.
Thus, the relationship between the two of them grew much closer.
Then, the elder introduced himself.
He had been orphaned at a very young age, growing up nameless and without a family, raised on the charity of others.
He called himself the Sword Elder because of his love for the sword.
Eighty years ago, he had a marriage, but sadly, his spouse was in poor health and passed away shortly after, leaving no children behind.
He had spent the years since then alone, with only his sword for company.
Now, over a hundred years old and seeing that he had no disciples to pass on his legacy, he came to seek out Lin Beifan.
But due to a twist of fate, he ended up taking Lin Beifan as his master.
Lin Beifan chuckled, “From today onwards, you are my disciple and also my sword attendant!
You shall carry this Xuanxiao God Sword on your back!
”“Yes, Master!
” the elder bowed with his hands clasped together.
Lin Beifan gestured with his hand, and with a clang, the divine sword flew over and landed in Lin Beifan’s hand.
After flourishing with his weapon, Lin Beifan handed it over to the elder.
The elder felt a sudden heaviness in his hand: “This sword is quite heavy!
”“This sword weighs 3,200 jin and possesses a demonic nature that can easily influence one’s mind.
Ordinary people cannot even approach it!
Fortunately, you are strong enough.
Carrying it on your back for extended periods will greatly benefit your training!
” Lin Beifan said with a smile.
“Yes, Master!
”And so, the divine sword was entrusted to the elder for safekeeping.
Whenever someone else tried to seize the divine sword, there was no need for Lin Beifan to take action; the elder would handle it directly.
“Dare to snatch my master’s divine sword, courting death!
”With just a few simple moves, he killed all those who came to steal the sword.
Everyone was extremely shocked.
“It’s the Sword Elder!
”“The Sword Elder has actually sided with Great Xia!
”“With the strength of a half-step Grandmaster and wielding the divine sword, the Sword Elder is invincible!
”“With the Sword Elder guarding the sword, forget about trying to snatch the divine sword from now on!
”“Let’s get out of here!
”With the deterrent presence of the Sword Elder, many people dared not attempt to steal the sword, and Great Xia became much more peaceful.
With a great master by his side, Lin Beifan remained very comfortable, going about his business as usual.
However, Chai Yuxin seemed a bit uneasy and pulled Lin Beifan aside to ask in a low voice, “How did you manage to coax him into coming?
”“There was no coaxing; it was my own personal charm that attracted him!
” Lin Beifan said proudly.
“Cut it out, do I not know you well enough?
No matter how you manage it, you shouldn’t let an elder call you ‘Master.
’ Don’t you think that’s rude?
”Lin Beifan felt wronged: “He insisted on calling me that, how can you blame me?
”Chai Yuxin became furious: “You still dare to quibble?
”“Where am I quibbling?
If you don’t believe me, go ask him!
”Chai Yuxin approached the elderly man, ready to ask him, but to her surprise, the old man bowed with his hands clasped: “Madam, what are your orders?
”Chai Yuxin: “…”*** Sponsored Chapter by Danny N7/9We are currently recruiting.
