I Became the Legendary Emperor Throughout the Ages After I Started Giving Away My Territory
Chapter Summary
”The Peerless Spear Immortal continued to laugh heartily, “Your Master has just seen the path forward clearly, knowing how to attain the Grandmaster level. By learning from him and reflecting on his own spear technique against the other’s Dao, it would be like copying the correct answers and then deducing the process backward; surely, he could obtain the technique he desired easier. The Peerless Spear Immortal, a peak Innate-level figure who had taken the spear technique to its limits, was actua...
“Hahaha!
I finally know the way forward!
” The Peerless Spear Immortal burst into laughter, suddenly enlightened.
“Master!
” Chai Yuxin called out worriedly.
“Don’t worry, my disciple.
Your Master is fine!
”The Peerless Spear Immortal continued to laugh heartily, “Your Master has just seen the path forward clearly, knowing how to attain the Grandmaster level.
That’s why I couldn’t help but laugh out loud!
”“Indeed!
”The Sword Elder laughed in agreement: “For a martial artist, finding one’s own path to enlightenment is like discovering a great treasure!
Congratulations, Brother Zuo, the Grandmaster status is within your reach!
”“Thank you, thank you…” The Peerless Spear Immortal responded with repeated bows, his face beaming with joy.
But then, he became troubled again.
Although he had found the way forward, how to actually walk it was still a problem.
Because the path he chose was to perfect the way of the spear.
To make his spear technique flawless and in harmony with the way of the heaven and earth.
But just by pondering on his own, who knows how many years it would take to succeed?
He feared that he might die without achieving it, living with regret forever.
However, there was a shortcut at hand.
The Peerless Spear Immortal’s gaze involuntarily drifted towards Lin Beifan.
By learning from him and reflecting on his own spear technique against the other’s Dao, it would be like copying the correct answers and then deducing the process backward; surely, he could obtain the technique he desired easier.
But how could he learn from him?
Without reason or relation, it was impossible for someone to casually impart their knowledge to you.
The Peerless Spear Immortal glanced at Lin Beifan, then at the Sword Elder, and let out a long sigh.
Well, it’s just a matter of pride!
If the senior Sword Elder could put aside his pride, why couldn’t he do the same?
“Thank you, Your Majesty, for enlightening me and showing me the way of the spear!
I have an audacious request and hope you will grant it!
” The Peerless Spear Immortal bowed respectfully and spoke.
“Let’s hear it first!
” Lin Beifan said, without making any promises.
At that moment, the Peerless Spear Immortal knelt down with a thud and said loudly, “I beg Your Majesty to take me as a disciple and teach me the way of the spear!
”Lin Beifan was shocked!
The Sword Elder was shocked!
Chai Yuxin was shocked!
Everyone present was shocked!
The Peerless Spear Immortal, a peak Innate-level figure who had taken the spear technique to its limits, was actually asking to become Lin Beifan’s disciple?
That’s just so f**cking weird!
So f**king bizarre!
It’s completely shattering their worldview!
“Master, what are you doing?
Get up quickly!
” Chai Yuxin hurriedly helped the Peerless Spear Immortal to his feet.
“Disciple, don’t stop me.
I know what I’m doing!
”The Peerless Spear Immortal sighed, “In my life, I have always treasured the path of the spear, yearning to carve out my own way in the art of spearmanship.
But now, it still seems out of reach after ninety winters, and I thought I would leave this world with regrets.
Until now, when I met His Majesty!
”The Peerless Spear Immortal looked intently at Lin Beifan, “His Majesty possesses the very path I’ve been desperately seeking!
As long as I follow him and learn, there is hope for my spearmanship!
”With that, he gave a deep and resounding kowtow.
“Please grant me this favor, Your Majesty!
”Everyone felt incredibly shocked!
And filled with admiration!
There are few in the world who can set aside their pride and dignity to take a younger person as their Master!
The Sword Elder did it before, and now the Peerless Spear Immortal has done it too!
From the Peerless Spear Immortal, they seemed to see a sage who had reached enlightenment, casting aside all else and forging through hardships without regret in pursuit of the path in his heart!
Perhaps he will succeed!
Chai Yuxin was very conflicted, “Master, I understand your pursuit, but there’s no need to take him as your Master!
You can just communicate more with His Majesty.
There’s no need to… to demean yourself like this!
” “My path must be sought with sincerity!
If my heart is true, then the Dao will open the way for me!
” the Peerless Spear Immortal said firmly.
Lin Beifan looked at the old man before him with a complex expression.
Of course, he was happy to take on such an impressive disciple.
By providing guidance and helping him avoid detours, there was a great chance he could attain the rank of Grandmaster.
If so, Great Xia would have a third Grandmaster, and the Empire was within reach.
But still, he was conflicted, “This doesn’t seem quite appropriate?
”“What’s not appropriate, Your Majesty?
” the Peerless Spear Immortal asked anxiously.
“You see…”Lin Beifan pointed at Chai Yuxin, “Yuxin and I have been betrothed since childhood, and she is destined to marry me!
But you are her Master, and if you take me as your Master, wouldn’t that mess up our hierarchy?
”“Exactly!
” Chai Yuxin nodded vigorously, as this was her biggest concern.
If her Master really became Lin Beifan’s disciple, then Lin Beifan would be her grand-master, two generations apart.
How could she marry him then?
“This is indeed a problem!
”After pondering for a moment, the Peerless Spear Immortal stood up and said to Chai Yuxin with a serious tone, “Yuxin, listen to me.
From today onwards, you are expelled from my tutelage.
You are no longer my disciple!
”Then he knelt down again with a thud, “Your Majesty, now there should be no problem!
”Lin Beifan: “F*ck!
”Chai Yuxin: “F*ck!
”“Master, how can you do this?
You just discard your disciple like that?
” Chai Yuxin was heartbroken.
The Peerless Spear Immortal had taught her and had always been a respected elder to her.
How could anyone bear such a sudden severing of ties!
The Peerless Spear Immortal’s heart softened, and he said gently, “Yuxin, this is just a nominal thing for the public.
Otherwise, it’s hard to explain!
Privately, I am still your Master, and you are still my good disciple!
”“Exactly, exactly… let’s keep each to their own, no need to take it too seriously!
Elder Zuo, please get up!
”Lin Beifan tried to help the Peerless Spear Immortal up but found he couldn’t move him.
So he changed the way he addressed him, “Disciple, please rise!
”Peerless Spear Immortal exclaimed with ecstatic gratitude, “Thank you, Master, for granting my request!
”After bowing deeply once more, he stood up again, his face beaming with a smile as if he had just found a priceless treasure.
Sword Elder asked with a smile, “Brother Zuo, what did you feel when you were kowtowing and taking him as your master just now?
”Peerless Spear Immortal reflected carefully, “At the beginning, I was very conflicted, unwilling to let go of my pride!
But once I gritted my teeth and bowed my head, I felt a sense of relief wash over me!
It was as if I had let go of everything, and aside from the path of the spear, everything else seemed unimportant like fleeting clouds!
”“Oh, that’s exactly how I felt back in the day!
” Sword Elder laughed.
Sword Elder continued, “Learning is like having an empty cup!
You can only fill it with more if you pour out what’s already inside.
Once you let go of everything, you can proceed unburdened, and the path will not be far!
”“Thank you for the guidance, Sword Elder!
” Peerless Spear Immortal said, his gratitude almost brings him to tears.
Sword Elder put on a stern face, “Still calling me ‘Elder’?
Show some respect!
”Peerless Spear Immortal was taken aback, then with a bow and a smile, he said, “Junior brother greets senior brother!
”“That’s more like it, junior brother!
” Sword Elder laughed heartily.
The others joined in the laughter.
After the laughter subsided, Peerless Spear Immortal took the opportunity to ask Lin Beifan for a game of chess, to which Lin Beifan gladly agreed.
As the two played chess, they continued to practice and refine their spear techniques.
Although Peerless Spear Immortal was still soundly defeated, he managed to identify one or two flaws and corrected them, improving his spear technique by a notch and bringing him closer to the legendary path of the spear.
Peerless Spear Immortal was overjoyed.
He had truly chosen the right Master!
Perhaps it wouldn’t be long before he could break into the realm of a Grandmaster!
