I Became the Legendary Emperor Throughout the Ages After I Started Giving Away My Territory
Chapter Summary
”Lin Beifan narrowed his eyes, observing carefully and thinking hard, he realized that this person was not one of the well-known Grandmaster figures. ”The Grandmaster was very surprised, looking at the smiling Lin Beifan, he shook his head without hesitation, “Does he really have such ability? Since you claim to know a little about everything, and Sword Elder says your understanding of the sword far surpasses ordinary people, why don’t we have a discussion about swords?
(TLN: Saber/Knife (刀) here is also a sword but refers to a single-edged blade.
Instead of a double-edged normal sword (剑).
)After unleashing a tornado, Lin Beifan felt refreshed.
He continued to monitor the state of the nation through Empire Sandbox and found that everything was thriving, which pleased him greatly.
However, it was at this moment that he noticed something different.
“Huh?
There’s a strange Grandmaster rapidly heading towards the Great Xia capital city?
”Lin Beifan narrowed his eyes, observing carefully and thinking hard, he realized that this person was not one of the well-known Grandmaster figures.
At least, he wasn’t one of the Grandmasters from the major Dynasty Empires or from any sect.
“He could very well be an unaffiliated wanderer!
” Lin Beifan’s heart surged with excitement.
His country was in dire need of Grandmasters, and if he could entice this one to join, it would definitely strengthen the nation’s power.
Upon closer inspection, he noticed that the stranger had an angry expression, which suggested that he might be harboring ill intentions.
“Is he just passing by coincidentally, or is he specifically coming to bring trouble to Great Xia?
”Lin Beifan shook his head: “Never mind that for now!
I can go and make contact first, and if he proves to be a threat to Great Xia, then I’ll deal with him!
”……The next day, dressed in a brocade robe, adopting the appearance of a young nobleman, and accompanied by Sword Elder and Eunuch Liu, Lin Beifan arrived at a bustling tavern.
Then, he approached a person sitting near a window.
That person was drinking alone.
From the side, the man appeared to have white hair and a white beard, looking to be in his eighties or nineties.
But from the front, one would see that his skin was smooth, with few wrinkles, and his eyes were bright and sharp, as keen as sabers.
He sat up straight, appearing to be no more than fifty or sixty years old.
He had a burly figure, especially his hands, which were unusually large and covered with calluses.
He was dressed simply, resembling a rustic villager.
On the table lay a saber, sheathed and hidden from view.
This man was the Grandmaster Lin Beifan had been keeping an eye on.
As Lin Beifan and his two companions approached, the man continued to drink and eat without looking up, saying, “This seat is taken!
”“It’s alright, I came specifically to find you!
” Lin Beifan said with a smile.
“You’re looking for me?
” The man was surprised and finally looked up, seeing three peculiar individuals.
One of them, the young man speaking to him, appeared to be about twenty years old, exceptionally handsome, with features so perfect that he was almost unparalleled among all the people he had ever seen.
Moreover, there was an indescribable air of nobility about him, clearly not an ordinary person.
The other two were elderly men, both seeming to know some martial arts.
One of them had a soft and gentle aura.
The other, though plain in appearance and seemingly nearing the end of his life, posed a threat that he could feel.
He was shocked, as there were not many in the world who could make him feel threatened!
Aside from peers of equal strength, who else could threaten him?
Could it be that this person was also a Grandmaster?
With this thought, he paid extra attention to this individual.
He noticed that the man had a sword case on his back.
The sword case was undoubtedly for carrying a sword, and from this sword, he sensed a threat.
He was shocked once again.
Could his sword actually threaten him?
In the blink of an eye, thousands of thoughts had raced through his mind.
Without thinking, he blurted out, “Could you possibly be the Grandmaster Sword Elder of this land?
The sword on your back must be the Xuanxiao Divine Sword of Great Xia, right?
And with a Grandmaster as your protector at such a young age… you must be Emperor Lin Beifan of Great Xia?
” Lin Beifan sat down with a smile, “Indeed, I am the current Emperor of Great Xia!
”With a wave of his hand, a group of Imperial Guards surged downstairs and drove all the customers out of the tavern.
The Grandmaster didn’t mind and focused all his attention on the Sword Elder, his eyes brimming with intensity, “I’ve long heard that Great Xia has a Grandmaster who wields a sword.
Seeing you today, you truly live up to your reputation!
When do you have time for us to have a match?
”“I’m ready to accompany you anytime!
” Sword Elder said, full of fighting spirit.
It’s so hard to come across a peer at the same level.
It would be a pity not to have a fight if you meet one!
“After I deal with some trifles and clear my mind, I will fight you with all my strength!
” the Grandmaster declared loudly.
Sword Elder nodded slightly and stood silently behind Lin Beifan.
At this moment, noticing Lin Beifan sitting while the Sword Elder stood, the Grandmaster felt somewhat dissatisfied.
In his mind, a Grandmaster should always be above others and not submit even to an Emperor.
Even if it were the Empire Emperor himself, a Grandmaster would be entitled to a seat.
Thus, the Grandmaster pointed to a seat nearby, “There’s a spot here.
Why don’t you sit?
”Sword Elder replied, “How can the disciple sit when the master is seated?
”“Master?
Disciple?
”The Grandmaster glanced at Sword Elder and then at Lin Beifan, his brow furrowed, “You say he is your Master?
He’s clearly a young man incapable of killing a chicken.
What qualifies him to teach you?
Are you perhaps trying to make this old man laugh?
”Sword Elder respectfully said, “There’s so much my Master can teach me!
His understanding of the sword far surpasses ordinary people, as does his grasp of martial arts!
Without my Master’s guidance, I would never have been able to achieve the status of Grandmaster!
”The Grandmaster was very surprised, looking at the smiling Lin Beifan, he shook his head without hesitation, “Does he really have such ability?
I don’t believe it!
”Sword Elder didn’t argue with him.
He had encountered such situations too often and was tired of explaining it every time.
However, seeing Sword Elder’s silent demeanor, the Grandmaster began to believe it somewhat.
After all, spreading such nonsense would be embarrassing.
No Grandmaster would admit to such a thing unless it were true.
So, the Grandmaster became curious about Lin Beifan, “Great Xia Emperor, Sword Elder says you are his Master.
What have you taught him?
”“I’ve taught him everything.
Whatever I know, I’ve taught him!
” Lin Beifan said with a smile.
“And what do you know?
” the Grandmaster continued to inquire.
“I know a little about everything!
” Lin Beifan replied with another smile.
“Such arrogance!
” the Grandmaster looked at Lin Beifan with disdain.
The word everything here is the key.
Even he, a Grandmaster, would not dare to make such a claim.
How could such a young person dare to do so?
“Fine!
Since you claim to know a little about everything, and Sword Elder says your understanding of the sword far surpasses ordinary people, why don’t we have a discussion about swords?
Let’s see if you truly have the ability or if you’re just arrogantly ignorant,” the Grandmaster challenged.
Lin Beifan shook his head, “I’ve talked about swordsmanship too much in the past!
How about we discuss sabers instead?
”The Grandmaster’s gaze at Lin Beifan suddenly changed, now mixed with a slight of anger!
Knowing that he used a saber, yet still wanting to discuss sabers…This was clearly a provocation!
