Eternal Reverence

Chapter 748: Madam Jin

Li Fuchen felt that the Sword Qi Lake was rather similar to the Thunder Heart Lake on the Emperor Sky Continent. Of course, the Sword Qi Lake’s power was several times more than the Thunder Heart Lake.

Gradually, the lake water in the jar was increasing.

Once the lake water left the Sword Qi Lake, it wouldn’t emit sword qi anymore. However, the power was still fearsome and would constantly erode the array patterns on the jar.

Li Fuchen’s collection speed was very fast as he used his right hand to siphon and toss water spheres into the jar.

As for the sword qi storm that was produced when collecting the water, it was still unable to break through Li Fuchen’s sword energy protection.

Li Fuchen’s sword energy protection was no longer the same as before.

His Primary Extreme Sword Technique was already close to the extremity and was a hundred times stronger than the Sky Ring Sword Armor’s protection. Li Fuchen reckoned that even a top 100 ranker from the Great Emperor Rankings wouldn’t be able to break his sword energy protection with ease.

“It is too slow.”

Li Fuchen wasn’t content that he was only able to collect a bowl-sized water sphere each time.

This time, Li Fuchen didn’t use his sword energy to collect the lake water, instead, he used his qi power to collect the lake water.

His qi power contained the stars law, which contained the gravity law. A gentle suction force was enough to pull a basin-sized water sphere onto Li Fuchen’s hand.

However, it stirred up an even more horrific sword qi storm. Those people that were near to Li Fuchen let out a yell and quickly retreated.

Cling Cling Cling Cling...

Sparks burst out around Li Fuchen. Tens of thousands of swords qi sliced on Li Fuchen’s body in an instant.

Li Fuchen didn’t bother and continued the collection.

Everyone behind Li Fuchen was stunned.

With Li Fuchen’s collection speed, he probably needed just a short moment to collect 1000 liters!

Back then, even the Sword Sovereign required half a day to collect 1000 liters of Sword Qi Lake water.

Li Fuchen’s collection speed was much faster than everyone’s expectation. It took just 10 minutes to fill up the jar with lake water.

One water jar just happened to be 1000 liters.

Li Fuchen wasn’t satisfied as he took out a second jar to continue the collection.

He could see that the lake water from the Sword Qi Lake had great use for a swordsman when comprehending the sword dao.

When the second jar was filled, Li Fuchen finally stopped.

One jar of lake water was enough for him to use a period of time. Even if it wasn’t enough, he could just return to collect more next time. Furthermore, he only had two jars.

After keeping the jars, Li Fuchen’s figure flashed as he left by flying into the sky, leaving behind a group of people with dumbfounded expressions.

“Could that person be stronger than the Sword Sovereign?”

“That isn’t true. Back then when the Sword Sovereign came to collect the lake water, he had yet to reach completion of sword dao. If the Sword Sovereign came to collect the lake water again, he would probably be as fast or even faster.”

“No matter what, that person’s sword dao strength is at least top five among the sword dao great emperors.”

On this day, Li Fuchen left behind a legend at the Sword Qi Lake. With word of mouth, many people found out an elite swordsman appeared at the vicinity of the Sword Qi Lake and used only 20 minutes to collect 2000 liters of Sword Qi Lake water.

Li Fuchen handed over 1000 liters of Sword Qi Lake water to the Swordsmen Guild branch and obtained 5000 guild points.

Right now, he had accumulated 8000 guild points and he still required another 12,000 guild points.

Inside the manor, Li Fuchen started to study the Sword Qi Lake water.

He discovered that the Sword Qi Lake water wasn’t very useful to him, and couldn’t help him to break through to a higher level.

It was rather logical too as Li Fuchen’s sword dao was already very close to extremity. If he wanted to break through, it wouldn’t be that easy, otherwise, the Sword Sovereign and Sword Emperor would be collecting the Sword Qi Lake water more than once.

Li Fuchen went back to the guild branch and wanted to take up another mid-grade mission.

Shortly after, Li Fuchen picked another mission which was an escort mission. The reward for the mission was substantial and actually awarded 10,000 guild points.

Once he was done with this mission, he just had to do another simple mid-grade mission before promoting to a grade 5 swordsman.

Therefore, Li Fuchen immediately tore off the mission slip.

According to the instructions on the mission slip, Li Fuchen arrived at the courtyard in the Autumn Leaf City.

“I am here to look for Madam Jin.” Li Fuchen said to the female servant at the door.

“Come in then.” The female servant invited Li Fuchen inside.

Once Li Fuchen entered, he noticed there were quite a number of escorts. There were a total of seven and if Li Fuchen was included, it would be eight.

Among the seven, three were grade 5 swordsmen, while four were grade 4 swordsmen.

The reason why Li Fuchen knew their grade was because of the swordsman emblem that swordsmen must wear during escort missions. It was the same for bodyguards who had to wear bodyguard emblems while on escort missions.

The emblem of a grade 3 swordsman would be three gray swords, grade 4 swordsman had an emblem of one silver sword. Grade 5 swordsman’s emblem were two silver swords criss crossing each other.

Once Li Fuchen entered, five of the swordsmen greeted Li Fuchen, while two others didn’t care as they closed their eyes and continued to rest.

“Madam, another one arrived.”

The female servant reported to a young madam in the master room.

“What is the grade?” The young madam turned around. A beautiful and exquisite face was reflected in the eyes of the female servant.

“Madam, it is a grade 4 swordsman.” The female servant quickly lowered her head. She might also be a woman, but everytime she saw the madam’s beauty, her heart would involuntarily race. The madam was truly too pretty and gave off a unique charm.

“Grade 4 swordsman? I must be overthinking. How can a guild branch have a grade 6 swordsman?” Madam Jin mumbled.

In the entire Swordsmen Guild, there were only two grade 8 swordsmen. In order to become a grade 8 swordsman, one would need the strength of a top 10 ranker in the Great Emperor Rankings. Otherwise, it wasn’t possible to pass the grade 8 swordsman exam.

There were merely 20 over grade 7 swordsmen, like the ranked 14th Emotionless Sword Emperor, ranked 20th Heart Sword Sovereign. They were both grade 7 swordsmen.

There were quite a number of grade 6 swordsmen, but it wasn’t that easy to become a grade 6 swordsmen. Grade 6 swordsmen were already considered elite combatants in the Swordsmen Guild. After all, there were just too little grade 8 and grade 7 swordsmen.

Moreover, some of the grade 6 swordsmen weren’t inferior to grade 7 swordsmen in strength. They just couldn’t be promoted to grade 7 swordsmen because they didn’t have enough guild points.

“Let’s go then! It has been three days. No one else will come.” Madam Jin walked out of the room.

“Everyone, I thank all of you for escorting me to the Golden Sand City. I guarantee that once we reach the Golden Sand City, I will give everyone a great gift.”

The Golden Sand City was extremely far. If they hurried, it would still take at least three months.

“Madam is too polite, this is our responsibility.”

“They said that Madam Jin has unparalleled looks. It seems like the rumors aren’t fake.”

Among the eight, there was only one female swordsman, the rest were male swordsmen. After seeing Madam Jin’s looks, even Li Fuchen let out an admiring expression. Especially those older swordsmen who had a flash of desire in their eyes.

Madam Jin didn’t just have absolute beauty, she had a charm that would make any men attracted to her.

“Did she cultivate the Empress Countenance Technique?”

Li Fuchen only admired but didn’t reveal any expressions.

If Li Fuchen didn’t guess it wrong, Madam Jin should have cultivated the Empress Countenance Technique. The Empress Countenance Technique allowed her to have a great enhancement in aura. Even women who were more beautiful than her wouldn’t be as charming as her. However, the Empress Countenance Technique had advantages and disadvantages. It was because of the Empress Countenance Technique, therefore, she required escorts. If not, she wouldn’t possibly make it to the Golden Sand City.

Outside the Autumn Leaf City, the group boarded Madam Jin’s high-grade silver airship and flew towards Golden Sand City.

Deep inside the Swordsmen Guild branch, the branch master, Yang Bo lifted his head and said, “Jin Clan, I have returned the favor.”

Many years back, Yang Bo owed the Golden Sand City’s Jin Clan a favor. Therefore, he used his authority to issue a guild mission which had an abnormally high reward. In normal situations, the Swordsmen Guild rarely issued escort missions.

Along the way, everyone started to converse.

Apart from the two rather aloof swordsmen, Li Fuchen already knew the names of the five other swordsmen.

The grade 5 swordsman who was a little older was called Xu Long. The other grade 5 swordsman was called Gong Yun.

As for the three other grade 4 swordsmen, they were called Cui Yijian, Zhou Jian, and Zhao Tianhe.

People who could be promoted to grade 4 and 5 swordsmen were all sword dao great emperors. As everyone conversed casually, they would also exchange thoughts about the sword dao.

“This Madam Jin is truly tasteful. I, Xu Long, am rather moved.” Xu Long was a straightforward person and didn’t try to hide as he spoke.

Zhou Jian said, “Big Brother Xu, I feel that you better not get involved with Madam Jin. She is too charming and people like us aren’t able to protect her from others.”

“That’s right, if I didn’t guess it wrongly, she should have cultivated the Empress Countenance Technique. Those who walked out of the Empress Countenance Sect are always competed for as dao companions. It is unknown why Madam Jin isn’t seeking the protection of the Empress Countenance Sect.”

Gong Yun said, “You guys might not know this. The Empress Countenance Sect has a rule. Those that got married will no longer be a member of the Empress Countenance Sect. It is obvious that Madam Jin is already married. Furthermore, the Empress Countenance Sect is just a slightly powerful emperor-class sect, unlike the Swordsmen Guild which has so many experts.”

“I wonder who is so lucky to marry Madam Jin.” Xu Long still sounded like he couldn’t accept the facts.

Zhao Tianhe said, “I heard that Madam Jin’s husband died a long time ago. The Golden Sand City should be Madam Jin’s hometown!”

Rumble!

As the group was talking, the airship suddenly shook vigorously.

Someone was attacking the silver airship.

Outside the airship, there was a group of individuals obstructing the path of the airship.

“Madam Jin, I have met you many years ago and I have missed you since then. I don’t mind a married person. Become the dao companion of me, the Green Dragon Halberd Emperor!” The leader of the group had a fiendish aura and was wielding a green dragon halberd.

“Pah, a toad wants to eat swan meat. Get lost now.” Xu Long opened the cabin door and chided.

“Grade 5 swordsman?” The Green Dragon Halberd Emperor had a change of expression.

Anyone of the grade 5 swordsmen was an extremely incredible sword dao great emperor. But how did Madam Jin ask the Swordsmen Guild to send grade 5 swordsmen to escort her?

“Friend, give me face. I want this Madam Jin.” The Green Dragon Halberd Emperor took a deep breath and said in a deep tone.

He, the Green Dragon Halberd Emperor wasn’t someone unknown. He might not be listed in the Great Emperor Rankings, but he had cross moves with other experts on the Great Emperor Rankings. A grade 5 swordsman wasn’t enough to repel him with words.

“Since you are not leaving, then die! Dragon Tiger Cloud Sword!”

Xu Long thrust with his large sword. A sword qi which was like a sea of cloud had rushed at the Green Dragon Halberd Emperor. There were even the roars of a dragon and the growls of a tiger.

Pfff!

Fresh blood was spat out as the Green Dragon Halberd Emperor was sent flying. “I will remember you people. Let’s go.”

The group came fast and left fast too.

“Many thanks to Dragon Tiger Sword Emperor.” Madam Jin gave her thanks to Xu Long.

Xu Long’s title was Dragon Tiger Sword Emperor and it sounded truly mighty.

Xu Long laughed heartily. “Madam Jin doesn’t have to worry. With me, Xu Long around, I will guarantee your safety.”

He was confident, after all, he the Dragon Tiger Sword Emperor was ranked around 7000 on the Great Emperor Rankings.
