Chapter 10 The Primordial Sword’s Lord is Just A Mortal...
"The Heavenly Sword Sect shouldn't have provoked those reclusive old folks in Jing Nation."
Mu Yuyan reminisced for a while, shaking her head slightly. "However, it seems that such a figure is not listed on the Tianji Pavilion's Expert Rankings."
The Tianji Pavilion did not belong to any nations; it was one of the only two neutral forces on the continent. It had many rankings, updated once every sixty years.
The Pavilion's Lord was even a peak-level cultivator, renowned for unparalleled strategy, and knowledgeable about everything!
"Your Majesty, judging from the traces he left behind, I have a bold guess..." Liu Yexi hesitated.
"Go ahead."
"The killing intent in his sword is overwhelming. I arrived two hours later, and his sword aura was still there, dominating and extremely profound... It's similar to the sword intent of a recorded divine weapon on the Divine Weapons Rankings, the Primordial Sword!"
Although Liu Yexi was young, as the head of the Imperial Announcements Bureau, she had a broad experience and could recognize the momentum from a divine weapon.
However, the Primordial Sword hadn't appeared in the mortal world for a long time, and the identity of the Primordial Sword's owner remained elusive.
"Did he leave any words?"
Mu Yuyan contemplated for a moment and asked.
Generally, when experts exterminated a sect, unless their identity was sensitive, they would reveal some information about themselves.
After all, they were not outsiders; who wouldn't want their deeds to be known far and wide?
Upon hearing this, Liu Yexi, however, wore an awkward expression and looked up at the female Emperor, "Your Majesty, that man left a message... he claimed to be the Sword Immortal who killed Duan Pei and the Demon King in Langzhou City."
Huh???
Impersonating?
Realizing that she had been made a scapegoat, the female Emperor was momentarily stunned, feeling a bit uncomfortable yet somewhat amused!
However.
Upon careful consideration, she found that the cultivation level of this swordmaster was not beneath her own!
Having hidden for so long, even she hadn't sensed his presence; indeed, he was a formidable expert... Mu Yuyan took a deep breath, her beautiful eyes slightly narrowed!
"In another year, when the Tianji Pavilion updates the Expert Rankings, we'll check. His name should appear on the Sword Dao Rankings. Try to attract him as much as possible when the time comes..."
"Alright."
Liu Yexi nodded.
In any dynasty, a Sword Immortal was at the consecrator-level, and their status was self-evident! If Great Jing could have one more Sword Immortal, it's strength would increase several times!
"Send orders to the capital. Have the undercover guards from the Imperial Announcements Bureau disguise themselves as commoners in Langzhou. Keep an eye on this area during this period and secretly protect Master Gu."
Mu Yuyan picked up the embroidery again and said seriously.
It had been an eventful time, unexpectedly, there was a sudden appearance of the owner of Primordial Sword in Jing Nation.
Although he seemed more like a friend than a foe, who knew if there were other experts lurking!
She feared that revealing her identity might bring unwarranted disasters to Gu Lan.
In ancient times, when a woman gave a man a sachet, it was a testimony to their lifelong commitment.
Gu Lan stared at the sachet, gradually lost in thought.
Its workmanship was not perfect, but it exuded Mu Yuyan's unique fragrance, sewn by her own hands, needle by needle.
In two lifetimes, this was the first time Gu Lan received a gift from a girl...
Seeing his distracted look, Liu Yexi, who was on the side, also looked dumbfounded!
She initially thought that it was just a leisurely pastime, unexpectedly, she was doing needlework for Gu Lan!
This... was actually a sachet embroidered by the Emperor herself!
A true one-of-a-kind item in the world!
If it were put up for sale... well, it couldn't be sold. Gu Lan would probably kill me...
Liu Yexi quickly stopped his thoughts, which were running wild like an unleashed wild dog.
Gu Lan put away the sachet and hung it on his waist, gently embracing Mu Yuyan in his arms.
Her delicate body was boneless, and the breath between her neck was fragrant like orchids.
A perfect flawless face was just a breath away. In her charming demeanor, there was elegance without losing cuteness and a hint of nobility amid the loveliness.
Gu Lan was fascinated.
Seeing this, Liu Yexi, showing tact, exited the main hall and went to wash the dishes.
"My lady, having you... is my blessing."
Gu Lan said sincerely.
Two lifetimes as a human, there was nothing more precious to him than the girl in front of him. Not even the system!
If he had met her in his previous life, it would have undoubtedly been a marriage envied by everyone.
"Master Gu, don't take risks in the future."
After a moment of tenderness, Mu Yuyan suddenly spoke in his embrace.
"Huh?"
"I heard from Old Yang today. There were cultivators fighting outside our teahouse. Someone died, and it was only taken away by the government in the evening."
"We are just mortals, it's too dangerous to provoke those cultivators!"
Mu Yuyan, seeing him in a daze, pouted with a hint of blame. "If I didn't mention it, were you planning to keep it from me forever?"
Damn, this Old Yang, why can't he keep his mouth shut... Gu Lan laughed a bit awkwardly. "I just didn't want you to worry, I promise not to do it again in the future."
"The Autumn Exam is only half a year away. I'll study peacefully at home."
"Alright."
Mu Yuyan sighed in relief after hearing that, speaking softly, "But Master Gu, don't tire yourself too much. You should take care of yourself. I heard that the exam won't be very difficult..."
