Chapter 94: Chapter 94: The Legendary Genius Junior Ancestor VS White Lotus Outer Sect Junior Sister (Part 8)
Gu Shengyin did not inform anyone other than Celestial Master Xing He when she descended from Lingxiao Peak this time.
The Astrolabe Sword Sect was located in the northern region of the Tianlan Continent, so she set off toward the South.
It was said that Tai Sui favored the dark and damp, usually appearing in the South.
Seeking out Tai Sui was just one of her objectives, as Venerable Ling Xiao had given her a task during this experience.
Challenge a hundred Sword Emperor experts!
When Gu Shengyin heard Venerable Ling Xiao’s words, she even complained to the system, “Look at this, is this something a Female Martial Artist should do?”
The system didn’t want to answer her—could you please restrain your eagerness a bit when saying that?
Recently, a Sword Emperor expert with rising fame had appeared on the Tianlan Continent!
It was said she came from the North, and no one knew her identity or the lineage of her masters.
Rumored to be very young, no witnesses would disclose the truth, so her actual age remained unknown to others.
What everyone could confirm was that she was a woman, and a very beautiful one at that.
Topics about women always garnered much interest, let alone a woman both beautiful and powerful.
This Sword Emperor expert, previously unheard of, began issuing challenge letters to every renowned Sword Emperor expert from the Astrolabe Sword Sect in the North.
Sword Cultivators are combative, and with a proper invitation to battle, no one would refuse.
Battle after battle, all eyes focused on this Sword Emperor.
Ten battles, ten victories!
Fifteen battles, fourteen victories!
Thirty battles, twenty-six victories!
More and more people began to follow her, speculating which seasoned Sword Emperor expert she would challenge next.
Where would her sword finally come to rest.
Gu Shengyin, cloaked in a mantle, sat inside a tavern, listening to the neighboring table discuss.
“Have you heard? The next opponent the Ice Heart Sword Emperor will challenge is the Guardian of Clumsy Sword Emperor from the Huanhua Sword Sect!”
The moniker Ice Heart Sword Emperor was an alias given to Gu Shengyin by outsiders.
“Pfft! That news has spread everywhere. Who doesn’t know that by now!”
“So, what do you think, who will win?”
“I bet on the Ice Heart Sword Emperor. Haven’t you seen her challenge so many Sword Emperor experts and only lose a few times?”
“That’s not certain. The Guardian of Clumsy Sword Emperor is one of the strongest within the Huanhua Sword Sect, how can those Sword Emperors be compared to him?”
“Betting is open now! Bet on which Sword Emperor will win the battle at Thousand Peaks, no going back!” The battle was set at Thousand Peaks, hence the people called it the Battle of Thousand Peaks.
“I’m betting on the Guardian of Clumsy Sword Emperor!”
“I’m betting on the Ice Heart Sword Emperor!”
Gu Shengyin finished her last bite, stood up, and walked over to the person who had opened the betting, pulling out a storage bag.
“Fifty thousand Sword Stones on the Ice Heart Sword Emperor.”
A moment of silence fell over the crowd.
After Gu Shengyin left, the crowd suddenly exploded.
“Definitely someone with money! That must be a lady from one of the Prominent Families, probably an admirer of the Ice Heart Sword Emperor, huh!”
Interestingly, as Gu Shengyin continuously challenged numerous Sword Emperors and achieved splendid victories, many Swordsmen became admirers of hers.
Every time Gu Shengyin arranged a duel, many would travel great distances to watch.
The day of the challenge arrived quickly.
Gu Shengyin came very early.
She stood at the summit of Thousand Peaks, feeling the piercing wind against her body.
Many people were in the distance, all of them having come on their own to witness the battle.
The Guardian of Clumsy Sword Emperor arrived a little later, appearing to take the battle very seriously.
Gu Shengyin slowly removed her cloak.
Even prepared mentally, the Guardian of Clumsy Sword Emperor was remarkably surprised by Gu Shengyin’s youth the moment he saw her.
“Truly, the younger generation is to be feared!”
