Bufeng city Feng empire.
The Jia family residence.
"Jia Li, are you sure it doesn't matter if you you you go alone to the city of Heihan without being accompanied by master Tao, the borders of the Wei empire and the Feng empire are extremely dangerous."
Jia Shu the mother of a Jia family girl looks so worried about her mere puppet princess named Jia Li.
"No matter mother, didn't you already send a letter to the thousand-sword sect, calm down you won't be able to let me know if you're not sure of the abilities of the guards who will escort me later." Answer Jia Li.
The Jia family itself was one of the great families or clans of the Feng empire that was quite influential among the 2 empires because this family was a merchant family that controlled the trade routes of the Wei empire and the Feng empire.
This Jia family is famous for its great effort in selling the tools needed by warriors such as weapons, protective clothing, even some types of medicinal pills.
the Jia Family could be said to have quite a lot in common with the treasure auction association that also sold the same products as the Jia family's.
However the treasure auction association might have a higher level of influence than the Jia family because the Jia family could not provide the high level medicinal pills that the swordsmen who were at the top of the tier were in great demand for swordsman soul.
Although rarely from the jia family who train silat, but thanks to the wealth they have, they can easily recruit great warriors to be used as a bodyguard.
Like the person mentioned by the name of the Taoist master above for example, he was a swordsman who was quite famous among the Feng imperial warriors and was dubbed as a white swordsman.
The nickname he got because when fighting, the sword in his hand always issued a white light that can dazzle the eyes of his opponents.
Tao Ming himself was a swordsman who was identical to the light element he possessed and currently already possessed the strength of a 7-star senior swordsman just like Ling Yan.
Tao Ming was also one of the best bodyguards belonging to the Jia family who always followed where the son of the head of the family traveled.
But due to urgent needs, Tao Ming was now unable to accompany Jia Li to the heihan city of the Wei empire which had the aim to open a branch for his family business there.
Actually besides Tao Ming the Jia family still had about dozens of silver and gold warriors as well as 7 diamond swordsmen and 2 soul warriors who could escort Jia Li.
But nevertheless, the, the father of Jia Li named Jia Wang was still not quite sure of their abilities and decided to send a letter to the thousand sword sect in order to get help from some disciples for an escort for his daughter.
Although actually the increase in the number of people will not be too influential, but most importantly it can make it calmer.
*****
1 month had passed since the joining of Ling Yan in the thousand sword sect, Ling Yan had now managed to master all the lightning and fire fighting techniques he had.
In those 1 month, Ling Yan also took the time to increase his inner strength, either using pills, or training in the thousand sword tower together with the other disciples.
Sometimes he also met with Zhao Zhang and Shen Yu to just discuss the practice of making pills, or discuss about the soul-burning fire which now looks more calm since joining Ling Yan.
As for his pill-making practice, Ling Yan had now managed to master the 5 recipes Shen Yu gave him that only 2 more pill recipes left that he had not tried.
As for Ling Mei and Xui who did the deep power control training from Shuyang, until now it was still so difficult to master the first stage.
Although in training both have improved, but until now they still easily break the wooden twigs they use as a training tool.
Meanwhile, Shuyang was currently training with Ling Yan on the arena using his wooden sword.
Ling Yan and Shuyang both practiced the sword techniques they had without using any inner manpower as they wanted to see the extent of the development as well as the variety of attacks they could perform.
"Splitting the Ocean!!!"
"The sword crossed the sky!!!"
Shouted the two together before the wooden swords they had clashed against each other.
Soon enough, the two of them decided to rest because they were tired.
"Your sword skills have improved so much, you've even been able to keep up with my movements." Ling Yan said while adjusting his breathing.
"Hahaha you're stronger, although I can compensate you, but it drains my energy and stamina." Shuyang replied Gasping.
In the middle of the conversation, Han Li's older brother Xui and Zhu Qing were suddenly seen approaching the two.
"Sorry, could you two come with me to meet with Chairman Zhao Zhang, Zhu Qing earlier told me that Chairman Zhao is looking for the three of us?" Ask Han Li.
Shuyang who heard that instantly changed his expression while frowning. "What, the sect master is looking for us, what's the matter, did the two of us make a mistake?" Questions streaked out from Shuyang's mouth.
"Can you follow me." Said Han Li before walking towards the dragon sword pavilion where Zhao Zhang was waiting for them.
The dragon sword pavilion itself was a place where the disciples or elders of the thousand sword sect took a list of missions to be carried out outside the sect.
"It looks like the three of us will be given missions that are outside the sect." Guess Ling Yan.
Arriving at the dragon sword pavilion, the three young swordsmen now found Zhao Zhang reading a piece of paper in his hand while standing inside a room.
"Greetings chairman Zhao." Respect the three students.
"Hmm you've arrived, sit down." Zhao Zhang had the three young warriors sit down before saying his goal was to call them.
Soon a sword elder who was none other than Yan Shiki also entered the room.
"Hmm all gathered up." Said Yan Shiki.
"Hmm elder Yan, you already know my purpose in calling you here, right?" Ask Zhao Zhang.
"Of course, chief, I'm ready to be their guide on his first mission." Answer Yan Shiki.
"First mission? I mean the chairman, we're going to carry out Ki's first mission outside the sect." Shuyang asked so enthusiastically which greeted a smile from Zhao Zhang.
"Yes that's right, and the mission of the four of you is." Zhao Zhang took out a dagger and threw down a large map dot plastered inside the room.
"Go to the Jia family residence in the city of Wei's imperial sidecar and escort the daughter safely to the city of Heihan." Zhao Zhang said.
