The Hidden Sword Sovereign: I Picked Up an Empress from the Start

Lin Wangchuan transmigrates to another world, where his exceptional talent catches the eye of the Old Sword God, who takes him as a disciple. He then spends ten years practicing the sword on Heartbreak Cliff, breaking through to the peak of the Transcendent Rank in one fell swoop. He defeats every genius of his generation and makes his name known throughout the world. One man, one sword: he guards the Nine Provinces, slays the wicked, and cuts down evil spirits! A great Confucian scholar praises him: “A flash of cold light shakes heaven and earth; he soars ninety thousand miles. This boy is destined to be the supreme sword master!” Yet just as the great dynasties are preparing to make him offers, the newly acclaimed Sword Venerable suddenly vanishes without a trace! The Sword Venerable’s whereabouts become an unsolved mystery on Tianling Continent. Twelve years later, the continent is once again swept up in upheaval. No one could have guessed that the Sword Venerable had spent all this time living in seclusion in a small peach orchard. One day, Lin Wangchuan finds an extraordinarily beautiful woman in the orchard. Seeing that she is on the brink of death, he saves her life. Jiang Yunshu: “Sword Venerable, I have no way to repay you for saving my life. I can only offer myself to you.” Lin Wangchuan: “That’s repaying kindness with betrayal.” Jiang Yunshu: “I’m done pretending. Here’s the truth: the world belongs to me, and so do you!”
