Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws Chapter 173 Jade Watersword Sect, Linghu's Young Emperor, I Look Forward To

Chapter 173: Jade Watersword Sect, Linghu’s Young Emperor, I Look Forward To Meeting Him
Honorable Xuan Qi’s ascension was over, and with that, he had made it to the Boundary Sage State.
As long as he would continue to accumulate wisdom, he was well on his way to becoming a Sage.
“Congratulations, Xuan Qi.”
The Black Heaven Sect’s Third Forefather smiled at Honorable Xuan Qi.
“Haha, it’s all thanks to Kuangren. Had it not been for him, my ascension this time would have been much harder with the Linghu family’s interference.”
Honorable Xuan Qi smiled.
He then looked to Chu Kuangren with gratitude.
“This young man is absolutely stunning. I requested the Linghu family for another position in the Sword Gauntlet’s quota so that he can lead.”
“A position in the Sword Gauntlet’s quota? Fantastic!”
Honorable Xuan Qi beamed.
Beside them, Chu Kuangren was a little confused. This Sword Gauntlet seemed extremely important even to Sages.
Even so, he suppressed confusion for now.
Honorable Xuan Qi’s ascension was over, but there was still unfinished business to take care of. Besides the Linghu family, there were a few others that had gotten involved thanks to them.
These parties would get their just desserts. The Black Heaven Sect would make sure of it.
Of these parties, the Jade Watersword Sect was the strongest of them all. They were one of the best honorable orthodoxies, second only to the sage orthodoxies.
The Black Heaven Sect would not let this go. They would send their forces to oppress them, and their leader would be none other than Chu Kuangren.
…
On the Fairy boat, Chu Kuangren stood on the deck, staring at the clouds in the sky.
“This is too much work. I had just settled the issue of the demonic onslaught in the Qian Nation, only to come home to help my Honorable Teacher with his ascension. And now, I need to go and oppress a whole honorable orthodoxy. What happened to free will?”
He looked at the sky and sighed helplessly.
Beside him, the Seventh Forefather smiled awkwardly. “There’s a reason for the Sect Leader’s actions, young lad. You know that our Sect Leader needs to gradually accumulate wisdom to attain Sagehood now that he has reached the Boundary Sage State, right?”
“It’s a long process, and if fortune is not on his side, it could take him a few hundred years to a few thousand years. The less interference, the better. He’s afraid that he would need to step down to focus.”
Chu Kuangren froze for a moment. “Step down? Wait, what about Black Heaven Sect? After all, we’re quite large. Has the next Sect Leader been chosen?”
It was only a casual question, but seeing at how Seventh Forefather was staring right at him, his heart almost stopped. He lifted a finger and pointed at himself doubtfully. “It can’t possibly be me… right?”
“Yes, it’s you.”
“For f*cks sake, you’ve got to be kidding! Me? Sect Leader? There are so many other elders in the Sect. Even Elder Ruyan would be better.”
“You have the prestige, the power, and you’re the current Sect Leader’s only disciple. Who else, if not you?” The Seventh Forefather grinned.
“But I’m only a King of War.”
“Go and tell that to other people and see if they believe you.”
The Seventh Forefather rolled his eyes.
‘Give me a break.’
‘You may be King of War, but you can beat up Honorable Supremes with one hand behind your back!’
“Treat this task of oppressing the Jade Watersword Sect as practice and a way to build your public prestige in preparation for you to take the place of Sect Leader,” the Seventh Forefather continued.
“Sigh… Let’s talk about this later.”
Chu Kuangren shook his head helplessly.
…
In Jade Watersword Sect, several elders paced around anxiously.
“What do we do now? The reports say that our Senior Elder was killed by the Black Heaven Sect. There’s no way they’ll let us go.”
One elder spoke anxiously.
“We should have stopped our Senior Elder from acting on his emotions from the start. Now look, we’re in trouble!”
“Exactly!”
“Let’s just think of how to deal with the Black Heaven Sect now.”
“How are we supposed to deal with them by ourselves?”
“Enough.”
Suddenly, a green-robed lady silenced the crowd with a cold shout. The person in question was the Jade Watersword Sect’s current Sect Master.
“Quit fretting about. The Jade Watersword Sect will not die,” she hissed coldly.
“Sect Master, do you have a plan?”
“The Linghu’s Young Emperor is still here, and he has pledged to fully protect the Jade Watersword Sect. Let him handle it,” the Sect Master of Jade Watersword Sect replied.
The group of elders slightly relaxed at those words.
If they were to fight the Black Heaven Sect by themselves, they would lose, hands down. However, with the Linghu’s Young Emperor, it was different.
After all, he represented the Linghu family, a sage orthodoxy.
Even the Black Heaven Sect would have to think twice, right?
In one of the Jade Watersword Sect’s gardens, a black-robed young man sat with a young lady who smiled sweetly at him. The young lady seemed very intimate and close to the young man.
“Darling Linghu, thank you for all your guidance! I’ve improved a lot.” The young lady smiled.
The black-robed young man’s eyes softened. “It’s the least I could do. Also, Lu Yan, I plan to return to the Linghu family in a few days. Would you like to come with me?”
The young girl was surprised at those words. “Really? You’re really willing to take me back to the Linghu family, darling Linghu?”
“Of course, you’re my woman. Where else would you go? Don’t worry, you’re qualified. With my guidance, you’ll definitely become an Honorable in a few years.”
“You’re so nice, darling Linghu.” Lu Yan hugged the black-robed young man, eyes filled with affection.
“Silly goose. Who else would I be nice to?” The young man grinned.
At this moment, he suddenly frowned. Not far away, Sect Master of Jade Watersword Sect slowly walked over and greeted him. “Greetings, Young Emperor.”
Lu Yan’s face flushed with embarrassment as she let go of the black-robed young man’s hand before addressing the Sect Master of Jade Watersword Sect. “Sect Master, you’re here.”
“Yes. I have something to request of the Young Emperor.”
“Speak,” the black-robed young man spoke indifferently.
“The Black Heaven Sect’s people are fast approaching Jade Watersword Sect. Our current forces are insufficient, so we hope that the Young Emperor can lend us a hand.”
“Fret not. My uncle made a promise to Jade Watersword Sect, and although he has passed in the Black Heaven Sect, the Linghu family will honor it. Besides, Lu Yan is here.”
“Darling Linghu…” Lu Yan was touched.
“I’m deeply grateful, Young Emperor.” The Jade Watersword’s Sect Master’s eyes lit up before she continued, “Also, Chu Kuangren is leading the group this time.”
Surprise flashed past Linghu’s Young Emperor’s eyes. “Chu Kuangren? You mean that legendary man who is placed first in the Hundred Swords Spectrum?”
“Yes, the very one.”
“Darling Linghu, I’ve heard how powerful he is. Perhaps you should request backup from the family?” Lu Yan stood there worriedly.
Linghu’s Young Emperor was slightly fearful, but he would not show it in front of his woman. Instead, he laughed coldly and said, “Chu Kuangren, huh? I’ve been looking forward to meeting him, so how could I turn down such an opportunity? Let’s see how he holds his weight against me.”
Seeing Linghu’s Young Emperor in such high spirits made Lu Yan look up to him even more. “Darling Linghu, I believe you can defeat Chu Kuangren! You’ll always be the strongest in my heart.”
“Of course.”
…
At the same time, the Fairy boat from Black Heaven Sect had already entered the Jade Watersword Sect’s territory, and many cultivators recognized Black Heaven Sect’s flag on the Fairy boat when they saw it.
On the Fairy boat stood many sword cultivators. Each of them emanated an extremely sharp sword qi around their bodies, and they were powerful.
