Chapter 79: Astonished and Shocked

“Heilin Province’s evil den is in turmoil, with more evil spirits surging out, needing reinforcements…”

“Cangzhou Province is struck by the evil plague, and life is fading away in the entire province. If not stopped soon, it may be too late…”

“Tiannan Province is influenced by an evil cult, and there are signs of a major upheaval. It needs to be eliminated…”

“The Northern Wilds’ demonic tribes are contracting, their movements are mysterious, as if they have some hidden secrets…”

“In the boundless sea, within the range of the Heavenly Star Islands, a Daxia merchant ship was destroyed, and the cargo was looted…”

Xia Xuan returned to his study to handle the memorials, but the more he read, the more he felt a headache.

The entire world seemed to be in turmoil. Where didn’t need to be guarded?

The more he read, the colder his heart felt, and the more powerless he seemed.

In such turbulence, how long could Daxia still hold on?

“Sigh…”

“Teacher, how much longer can Daxia hold on in its current state?” Xia Xuan put down the memorials and seemed to be muttering to himself in the empty study.

However, there was a response in the void.

“Your Majesty, rest assured. As long as I am here, Daxia will continue to exist day by day. Even if I’m not here, we will fight for Daxia to have a hundred years of rest and recuperation.”

“We still have time, and opportunities may arise at any moment.”

“Let’s hope so.”

Xia Xuan composed himself and tried to lift his spirits. As the Emperor of Daxia, he could accept defeat in many aspects, but not in this one.

He carried the burden of millions of people on his shoulders.

He couldn’t fall.

The fate of the whole world rested on his shoulders.

s the world was in chaos, all living beings suffered…

Xia Xuan closed his eyes, calmed his mind, and after a while, he continued to read the memorials.

Time passed, and suddenly, Xia Xuan burst into laughter.

“Hahaha…Teacher, my path is not lonely…”

When he finished reading the memorial, he was overjoyed, bursting into laughter like never before.

At the same time, a voice from the void sounded again.

“Your Majesty, what brings you such delight?”

“Teacher, please have a look.”

He handed the memorial to the void, and a pair of eyes opened, reading the information written on the memorial.

[Tianfeng Prefecture – A nineteen-year-old Heavenly Transforming Realm swordsman! Single-handedly destroying the Evil Blood Cultivation Sect!]

The memorial contained a lot of information about Su Yang’s achievements, his past, and words of commendation for him.

However, the words “nineteen-year-old Heavenly Transforming Realm swordsman” had completely captured the attention of Emperor Xia Xuan and even the current Martial Saint.

“Excellent… Your Majesty’s path will not be lonely. This is an opportunity, a turning point for our Daxia!” Even the Martial Saint was feeling a bit restless.

Daxia’s current situation desperately needed someone who could step up and hold the tort. The person they read about in the memorial might be the one to change the current state of Daxia.

A new Martial Saint… Daxia needed a new one to emerge.

This nineteen-year-old Heavenly Transforming Realm swordsman was hope!

More than his strength, it was Su Yang’s actions that pleased Emperor Xia Xuan immensely.

“Teacher, what should we do next?”

“Let’s re-investigate his identity and past. Summon him to the capital for an audience and confer rewards. After that, we shall deliberate on further actions.

“For now… it’s best to keep this news sealed. The Heavenly Transforming

Realm alone is not enough.”

“Yes, teacher.”

Next, an order was discreetly issued from the depths of the palace.

Although hidden, it did not escape the attention of many noble families and influential figures.

Although they didn’t know the specifics, they sensed that something had happened. Emperor Xia Xuan’s mood had slightly changed, and they were keen to uncover what had occurred.

One by one, they activated their networks and resources to find out what had transpired.

After another day had passed, Su Yang’s Sword Intent had been raised to level 34.

At level 34, his Sword Intent could already cover a range of hundreds of miles with just a release. If he used the Spider Web, it could extend to a radius of two hundred miles.

Once he reached the seventh grade, further progress would slow down a bit. For other body-refining cultivators with good talent and sufficient medicinal aid, it would take about half a year to go from the seventh grade to the sixth grade. Of course, this was under the condition of having resources and being a genius.action

For those with average talent and insufficient resources, it was normal for it to take more than a decade.

With Su Yang’s level 34 Body TemperingAstral Wind and the Golden Body Medicinal Bath recipe, it would take less than half a month to raise his body to the sixth grade, making him slightly faster than a genius.

After reaching the seventh grade, he could use the Golden Body Medicinal Bath recipe.

Now, in one day, he could normally swing fifty thousand swords.

His strength was improving even faster.

Today, Su Yang was in his courtyard, as usual, practicing his swordplay.

At noon, Yi Tianba sent someone to find him.

Upon arriving at Yi Tianba’s temporary residence, Yi Tiana warmly greeted him.

“Haha, Su Yang, His Majesty wants to see you and reward you in front of all the civil and military officials. You need to go to the capital for this.”

Yi Tianba laughed and informed Su Yang about the letter he had just received. “Oh?” Su Yang replied solemnly, “Is there a specified time for me to arrive?”

“Well…” Yi Tianba hesitated, “There isn’t, but it’s best not to exceed seven days. With our speed, we should be able to handle some things within seven days and still have enough time to reach there. So it’s better not to exceed seven days.”

“Seven days, huh?” Su Yang continued, “That should be enough. In the next few days, I need to take care of some matters, so I might have to wait until the last day to leave.”

“By the way, after arriving in the capital, where should I go or whom should I find?”

“Seven days should be enough time. With my Grandmaster-level strength, I can make it to the capital in a day,” Yi Tianba replied. “That’s good. When it’s time to leave, I’ll come to find you?”

“Sure.”

After discussing the matter, it was settled.

Going later at night was to improve his strength. Even if he went to the capital, no one could restrict him. Only then could his safety be guaranteed.

LV34 should be enough, Su Yang thought. A Martial Saint’s power could easily destroy a city. A full-force attack could easily annihilate a hundred miles of land.

He believed he could already meet this requirement with ease.

With his current strength, he was confident he could easily achieve that level of power.

But for safety reasons, it was better to continue improving a bit more.

And so, for the next six days, Su Yang practiced his sword in Tianfeng

Prefecture and quietly awaited the time to come.

At the same time, the spies in the capital sent the collected information to the depths of the palace.

As they became more familiar with Su Yang’s path to greatness, they were increasingly astonished and shocked.

In just two months, he went from someone who didn’t know martial arts to reaching the Heavenly Transforming Realm!

How…. was this possible!
