The Lord's Empire

Chapter 1058: Killing Sword Lake

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

The worlds were all quite big and had many people, and cultivating the way of the sword was quite common. As such, finding 100 swordsmen with sufficient talent was naturally no problem.

In the human world, the Sword Sect’s Zhang Xiaohua started training with a sword from when he was five years old and reached the Grandmaster level when he turned 20 years old. His sword style was coarse and violent, and it contained immense destructive power.

In the Dark Demon world, the Breaking Demon Sect’s Lun Mingsan naturally had a sword constitution and learned all sorts of techniques by himself without a master since he was young. His comprehension of the way of the sword was incredibly deep, and he was one of the most talented swordsmen in the Western Continent of the Dark Demon world.

In the Elf world, the Misi Kingdom’s Kejni was an Imperial Swordsman who had a profound grasp of Elven sword techniques, and his sword strikes had an air of nobility to them.

Zhao Fu smiled as he looked through the information on the various swordsmen. He gave out the order to capture these people, and because they were all quite powerful, he naturally had to make proper preparations.

He put 30 City Lords in a team and prepared all sorts of items to suppress the way of the sword. They would suppress them from a distance and avoid direct fights. Zhao Fu understood that these people were all very dangerous, and if they were not careful, there could be injuries and casualties.

Zhao Fu put Ge Nia in charge of this operation and gave him an Official Seal equivalent to a Marquisate City Seal in order to prevent anything from going wrong. If they could not defeat their targets, they could directly suppress them with pure strength.

Clang, clang, clang…

On an area of yellow, sandy soil, a young man with ordinary looks swung a large sword, sending out waves of sword wind. His strikes had immense force, making no one dare to come near.

Suddenly, Zhang Xiaohua stopped and looked towards the sky with a serious look. Black-cloaked figures had appeared in the sky.

“Who are you?” Zhang Xiaohua’s expression was cold as he pointed at those mysterious people in the sky; he could sense that those people came with ill-intent.

Boom!

The dozens of people in the sky exploded out with the power of City Lord Seals and invigorated the pendants hanging in front of their chests, which gave off powerful black lights.

Zhang Xiaohua immediately sensed that the situation was not good; he had never thought that all of these people would be City Lords. At most, he could deal with 20 City Lords, but this number exceeded what he could deal with; it seemed that the other side had come prepared.

Zhang Xiaohua’s first thought was to leave, but it was already too late. Just as he prepared to move, the people in the sky pointed at him, causing a black magic formation to appear around him, and an extremely mighty power locked him down.

No matter how much Zhang Xiaohua struggled, he could not break free from this power, and he was taken away by those mysterious people.

Within an exquisite and beautiful castle, a golden-haired middle-aged Elf laughed as he taught a few Elf children sword techniques. The children practiced the sword techniques in an awkward and clumsy wave, causing the middle-aged Elf to laugh.

However, in the next moment, Kejni’s expression fell, and he quickly said to the Elf children, “Hurry and go back into the room!”

The children did not know what was happening, but seeing how serious Kejni looked, they obediently returned to the room.

A group of black-cloaked figures appeared around Kejni, looking at him with cold gazes.

Kejni’s expression was serious, and he elegantly drew the sword from his waist. The mysterious people did not say anything and chose to directly act, causing chains to fly forwards with massive power.

Clangs sounded out, and despite trying his best, Kejni was unable to resist and was taken away at the end.

The Elf children soon ran out but could not find Uncle Kejni. A while later, more people arrived and found out what had happened.

Chi!

Lun Mingsan pierced through a person’s heart and disdainfully harrumphed. There was a pile of corpses on the ground, and it seemed like there had just been a big battle.

The reason for this battle was because Lun Mingsan had taken a liking to a treasure but that person had not been willing to give it to him, so he could only take matters into his own hands and take it by force. As such, Lun Mingsan did not hold back and killed all of them, including a few elderly and children.

After taking the treasure, he wiped off the blood from his sword and prepared to leave.

However, a black-cloaked figure holding a sharp sword stood in the direction that he was going. Lun Mingsan’s expression became grave because he could sense that this person’s aura was very powerful and incredibly sharp. He was most likely another swordsman.

Neither side said anything and directly drew their swords to start fighting. In the end, Ge Nia carried the half-dead Lun Mingsan back to Great Qin.

After various sword geniuses suddenly disappeared, many people caught onto this and felt quite curious. Who was catching these sword geniuses, and what was their goal? They all felt quite curious, so they did some investigating but could not find any information.

This caused a wave of panic in the world of sword cultivating. After all, these were all sword geniuses, people they all looked up to. They had all been captured, so what about the rest of them?

However, because not many of them had gone missing, the panic was not very great, and the matter gradually calmed down.

Within the Emperor Killing Sword World, Zhao Fu found a flat area and sent his power into the Emperor Killing Sword, causing it to give off an intense blood-red light, and the killing intent it gave off became even stronger.

Shing!

A sword hum sounded out as Zhao Fu stabbed the sword into the ground, causing a blood-red light to shoot into the sky. The ground started to collapse as the killing intent in the surroundings madly gathered in the crater, and as the crater expanded, it started to be filled with water.

Soon, all abnormal signs vanished as a lake surrounded by grass appeared. The lake was circular and 1,000 meters wide. It was incredibly clear, and even the stones at the bottom could be seen. The surface of the lake was as still a mirror and reflected the blue sky and white clouds, creating a beautiful scene.

This was the Killing Sword Lake, and the water within the lake was condensed from killing intent. If ordinary people touched even a bit, their bodies would become bloody mist – it was incredibly dangerous.

Following this, 100 people were brought before Zhao Fu. These people were the sword geniuses Great Qin had captured. Most of them did not know who Zhao Fu was, but some people from the human world did.

“Great Qin’s Legatee, you tyrant! Why have you brought us here?” a young man furiously shouted.

Zhao Fu lightly laughed as he replied, “Don’t you cultivate the way of the sword? We will allow you to reach the pinnacle of cultivating the way of the sword!”

“Are you the Killing Sword Master?” some people guessed Zhao Fu’s identity and cried out after sensing the killing sword intent everywhere in this world.

Hearing this, the people from outside the Legacy Lands looked incredibly shocked, while those from within looked quite confused. They did not know that Zhao Fu’s name had resounded throughout the entire Ancient Stem Domain and that some people from the Heaven Domain even knew about him.

Zhao Fu replied, “If you have any last words, say them now and Great Qin will try to fulfill any requests you have. Otherwise, We will be starting now.”

Everyone’s expressions fell, and they tried to resist. Some sighed and said their last words before they were sent into the lake by Zhao Fu.
