I Became the Legendary Emperor Throughout the Ages After I Started Giving Away My Territory
Chapter Summary
At this moment, Shangguan Hong, looking at the messages being relayed from below, muttered softly, “The Beggar Sect has actually given up their territory and chosen not to fight? ”Standing next to Shangguan Hong was a Cold-Faced Swordsman who said, “Leader, I suspect there is deceit in the Beggar Sect’s actions. ”Shangguan Hong stood up, looking at the clear waters of the lake, standing with his hands behind his back, and said, “About a year ago, the leader of the Beggar Sect, Hong Qihai, went t...
At this time, in a large lake with clear emerald waters in a deep mountain forest.
Above the lake, there was a series of magnificent and splendid mansions.
Above the mansions, a giant copper coin was suspended in the air.
Every person who came here had to bow in respect to this copper coin.
This was the headquarters of the Money Gang, as well as the residence of the Money Gang’s leader, Shangguan Hong.
At this moment, Shangguan Hong, looking at the messages being relayed from below, muttered softly, “The Beggar Sect has actually given up their territory and chosen not to fight?
”Standing next to Shangguan Hong was a Cold-Faced Swordsman who said, “Leader, I suspect there is deceit in the Beggar Sect’s actions.
We must be cautious!
”“It might be deceit, or it might be… they have no other choice!
”Shangguan Hong stood up, looking at the clear waters of the lake, standing with his hands behind his back, and said, “About a year ago, the leader of the Beggar Sect, Hong Qihai, went to the Great Xia imperial palace to provoke a fight and was defeated by the Grandmaster Sword Elder after a battle.
He fled and has since disappeared!
”“Not long after, the vice-leader of the Beggar Sect and several other elders also vanished!
” “Rumors in the rivers and lakes suggest that Hong Qihai was actually injured by the Sword Elder and went into hiding to recover!
The other missing Beggar Sect elders are said to be protecting him while he heals!
”“But it’s been almost a year, and they still haven’t shown themselves!
It’s understandable for Hong Qihai to heal, but why haven’t the other Beggar Sect elders appeared?
Don’t you find this strange?
”The Cold-Faced Swordsman nodded, “Leader, this matter is indeed strange!
Despite mobilizing all forces, we’ve still uncovered nothing!
Those Beggar Sect elders are tight-lipped; not a word has leaked out!
”“Wuming, do you think it’s possible that Hong Qihai is dead?
” the Money Gang leader turned and said.
(TLN: Wuming=nameless/without a name.
)The Cold-Faced Swordsman was shocked, “Hong Qihai is dead?
How could that be?
He is a Grandmaster, one of the top experts in the world.
How could he die?
And who could kill him?
”“This is my speculation!
Grandmasters are powerful but not invincible and immortal!
”The Money Gang leader shook his head and said, “Look, the Great Xue Emperor, who had just broken through to Grandmaster, was killed, right?
And by someone with no cultivation at all!
Why couldn’t Hong Qihai die?
”“This…” The Cold-Faced Swordsman was at a loss for words.
“Let’s assume for a moment that Hong Qihai is dead.
If he’s dead, naturally, he can’t show up!
If the leader of the Beggar Sect is dead, the strength of the Beggar Sect must have greatly diminished.
So, they would have to keep this secret and say nothing to minimize losses!
They can only swallow their pride even if they clash with our Money Gang!
”The Money Gang leader spread his hands, “See, doesn’t all this fit together?
”“Leader, what you say makes perfect sense!
” the Cold-Faced Swordsman said.
“Of course, all this is just my speculation!
”The Money Gang leader said with a self-satisfied smile, “Whether he is dead or alive, I have no way of knowing, but we can further test this!
If we force him out, I can have a showdown with him!
If he’s dead and doesn’t come out, then we can take the opportunity to swallow up all of the Beggar Sect’s territory!
”“Leader, your wisdom is unparalleled.
I will go and handle this!
Wuming takes his leave!
”After bowing, the Cold-Faced Swordsman left the headquarters of the Money Gang.
Not long after, Money Gang launched a massive offensive against Beggar Sect, going all out to snatch Beggar Sect’s territory.
The disciples of the Beggar Sect continued to swallow their pride and ceded their territory.
Money Gang pressed on with their aggression.
The disciples of the Beggar Sect retreated time and again.
As the Money Gang advanced, the Beggar Sect retreated.
People from all walks of life in the rivers and lakes couldn’t stand it any longer.
“Beggar Sect is too cowardly!
They’re the number one gang in the world, yet they’re being bullied and don’t even fight back!
”“Could they be afraid of the Money Gang leader?
”“That can’t be it, right?
Beggar Sect has a Grandmaster, too.
How could they be afraid?
”“Is Hong Qihai’s injury still not healed?
”“Or is it that Hong Qihai is afraid of Shangguan Hong?
”In Great Xia, the elders of Beggar Sect once again gathered to report the situation.
Elder Qian, filled with righteous indignation, said, “Your Majesty, Money Gang has gone too far!
We have already given up so much territory, but their greed knows no bounds, and they’re bullying us to death!
”Elder Lai was also very angry, “Your Majesty, we can’t keep retreating, or we’ll become the laughingstock of the rivers and lakes!
”Elder Zhou was more worried, “I’m afraid if the former leader’s matters are exposed, the consequences will be uncontrollable!
”“Alas, the position we’re in is so difficult!
”Finally, everyone spoke in unison, “We implore Your Majesty to uphold justice!
”“We really can’t retreat anymore!
”Lin Beifan slammed his hand on the table and stood up, declaring loudly, “If he’s so eager to die, I’ll grant his wish!
”The Sword Elder stepped forward, “Master, I am willing to undertake this task!
”Lin Beifan nodded in satisfaction, “Good!
You will go in my stead and slay Shangguan Hong!
But before you depart, I must first disguise you!
”“Disguise?
Why?
” The Sword Elder was confused.
Lin Beifan smiled and said, “Of course, you must be disguised as Hong Qihai, the leader of the Beggar Sect!
In this way, not only can we resolve all our troubles when you slay Shangguan Hong, but we can also deter the petty and the cowardly,, and no one will dare covet Beggar Sect again!
”“What the master says is very true!
”Following that, Lin Beifan personally applied the disguise to the Sword Elder.
Although the disguise wasn’t perfect, it was about seventy to eighty percent accurate, enough to deceive many people.
Meanwhile, to make the imitation more convincing, the Sword Elder also learned a few moves of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms.
Once the preparations were complete, they set off.
