Chapter 164.1

Not only the common people but even the martial artists who heard it felt extremely uncomfortable, and a sense of alarm rose in their hearts.

Who is this deity? Just the sound makes people uncomfortable?

My internal organs are all shaking, and I cant even use my inner strength!

What a terrifying voice, what powerful energy!

It cant be Innate, could it be

Everyone was speculating about the source of the voice.

At that moment, a towering figure burst out from the imperial palace.

He stood at the highest point of the imperial palace, dressed in a golden yellow imperial robe, with his thick black hair cascading down.

His eyes were sharp as he looked disdainfully in all directions, continuing to laugh loudly, Hahaha! I have finally made a breakthrough!

Even the clouds in the sky seemed to be scattered by his voice.

Just then, the Imperial Guard came surging in from all directions.

One of them was the commander of the imperial palace guards, who possessed the strength of Innate Astral Qi.

He immediately recognized the person above them as their Emperor and shouted loudly, Everyone, do not panic, this is our emperor!

Then, they all knelt on one knee in unison.

Long live the emperor, may our emperor live for ten thousand years!

The Great Xue Emperor laughed heartily and gently extended his hand in a gesture, My ministers, theres no need for such formality!

The kneeling Imperial Guards suddenly felt a tremendous force lifting them up, which left them utterly astonished.

Previously, their Emperor had shown such divine abilities, but he could only lift a dozen people at a time.

Not like now, where he was lifting a thousand people with one hand.

This power was truly terrifying and shocking.

The commander of the guards couldnt help but look up again and was startled once more.

Before, when he looked up to the Emperor, he could barely sense the realm of his strength, feeling as if he was looking up at someones back.

But now, he could no longer see the Emperors back at all.

He felt as if the Emperor was as unfathomable as the ocean and as unreachable as the blazing sun.

In his presence, he didnt even dare to draw his sword.

Thinking back on everything that had just happened, the commander of the guards cautiously asked, Your Majesty, have you made a breakthrough? Have you become a Grandmaster?

The Great Xue Emperor smiled and nodded, Indeed!

The commander of the guards was overjoyed and bowed deeply, Congratulations to Your Majesty for achieving the Grandmaster level! You are invincible in the world!

The others followed suit, shouting, Congratulations to Your Majesty for achieving the Grandmaster level! You are invincible in the world!

The Great Xue Emperor laughed heartily once again, Well said! I am very pleased with your words. Everyone will be handsomely rewarded, a thousand taels of silver for each!

Thank you, Your Majesty, for your great kindness! everyone exclaimed with joy.

Before long, all the civil and military officials of the Great Xue Kingdom arrived with joy.

Their Emperors breakthrough to Grandmaster was a top-tier celebration for them, comparable to the founding of a dynasty!

A country with a Grandmaster was ranked among the top nations!

A nuclear-weapon-level existence that even empires wouldnt dare to provoke lightly!

Congratulations to Your Majesty for achieving the Grandmaster level! You are invincible in the world!

Although he had heard this many times, hearing it once more still made the Great Xue Emperor very happy.

With a delighted expression, he said, My ministers, well said. I want to reward you all generously! A thousand no, ten thousand taels of silver for each person, share in my joy! Haha

Thank you, Your Majesty! all the officials said in unison.

But Your Majesty, there might not be enough silver in the national treasury the Minister of Revenue stepped forward, looking somewhat troubled.

Thats a synonym for invincibility!

One person who can stand against an entire nation!

A country without a Grandmaster is doomed to be at the mercy of others!

Seeing everyone looking so weary, Lin Beifan reassured them once more: You really dont need to worry. Just a little Grandmaster, okay? If he comes, I guarantee he wont be able to return!

Watching Lin Beifans confident demeanor, everyone was dumbfounded once again!

Just a little Grandmaster?

This guys arrogance seemed to be growing by the minute!

Your Majesty, who gave you the courage to make such a bold statement?

Bai Zhu thought for a moment and then asked anxiously, Your Majesty, could it be that we also have a Grandmaster?

Her mind immediately went to the mysterious swordsman behind Lin Beifan.

That swordsman had never shown his face, but he had made a few moves, each one incredibly impressive.

The first time he took action, he killed five Innate experts with a single move.

The second time, he slew a powerful beast, a giant serpent, with his sword.

The third time, he sent the arrogant Ouyezi flying with a palm strike.

The fourth time, he beheaded the peak Imperial Qi expert, the Beheader Hand Chou Yin.

Because each intervention was extraordinary, many people suspected he had the strength of a Grandmaster.

However, he hadnt made a move since then, and people gradually forgot about him.

If Great Xia had a Grandmaster behind it, it had to be him!

Your Majesty, we have a Grandmaster too, right?

Amidst the hopeful gazes of the crowd, Lin Beifan thought seriously for a moment

It seems not!

The crowd:

Bai Zhu became anxious: What about that mysterious sword master?

Lin Beifan waved his hand nonchalantly: I dont know. Im also not very clear about his strength!

Your Majesty, Great Xia is in danger this time. Can we ask him to take action? Eunuch Liu asked urgently.

Lin Beifan took a sip of tea before replying calmly: He has already left, his whereabouts unknown! Whether we can invite him or not is still uncertain. Well see how things go!

Everyone was slightly panicked!

How could this be left to chance?

Seeing everyone so anxious and scared, Lin Beifan secretly smiled and then said earnestly.

Everyone, please remember, has our Great Xia faced fewer dangers? Over the past two years, weve faced countless crises of national extinction, but havent we survived each one? It will be the same this time. Everyone, just chill and relax!

Everyone was extremely weary. Could this really be the same?

Before, we faced mere mortals, but now were up against a Grandmaster, someone who is powerful and unbeatable!

Only a Grandmaster can defeat a Grandmaster!

But they dont have a Grandmaster!
