Jian Xuanji desperately wanted to see Ye Qing. That night, the eldest princess of the Sword Dynasty, Jian Xuanji, left the palace silently and headed straight for the ninth prince's residence.
Jian Xuanji wore a white dress that fluttered in the wind. She was charming. After arriving at the ninth prince's camp, she did not look for the ninth prince at all. Instead, she headed straight for Ye Qing's residence.
Jian Xuanji had already found out about Ye Qing's residence. As a result, she went straight to Ye Qing's room to spy on him.
At that moment, Ye Qing was sitting on the bed with his legs crossed as he circulated his cultivation method. He was in the process of cultivating.
Suddenly, Ye Qing sensed someone spying on him from outside. He raised his hand and released a strand of sword Qi. It tore through the air and pierced through the window, shooting towards the beauty outside.
Jian Xuanji sensed the sharp sword Qi coming towards her. She was suddenly startled and hurriedly displayed her strength in the Way of the Sword. She condensed a net of swords around her to block Ye Qing's strike.
With a rip, Jian Xuanji's defence was like glass under Ye Qing's sharp sword technique. It was unable to withstand a single blow.
In just an instant, Jian Xuanji's defence collapsed completely. At the same time, blood spurted out from Jian Xuanji's shoulder.
She retreated as she was extremely shocked. Logically speaking, Jian Xuanji's strength in the Way of the Sword was astounding. She had already grasped the edge of the Way of the Sword. She was only a step away from truly seeing through the Way of the Sword.
In the entire Sword Dynasty, Jian Xuanji's strength in the Way of the Sword was astounding. She could rank in the top three. It was no joke.
Although Jian Xuanji was only a representative of the younger generation, her strength in the Way of the Sword was much more powerful than many of the older swordsmen.
Just then, Jian Xuanji had actually been at a complete disadvantage in the short clash with Ye Qing. She was no match for Ye Qing at all.
Ye Qing's casual strike had broken through Jian Xuanji's defence.
Jian Xuanji, who was outside the room, did not show any anger. Instead, her beautiful eyes were filled with admiration for Ye Qing's Sword Principle.
With a glance, Jian Xuanji saw Ye Qing's appearance in the room through the paper window. He was even more shocked.
"How can there be such a handsome guy in this world?
His Sword Dao strength is also so shocking. "
Jian Xuanji cried out in shock. He then turned into a white light and disappeared into the void, returning to the palace.
Jian Xuanji had already achieved his goal. He had tested Ye Qing's strength in the Sword Dao and had even seen Ye Qing in person.
In Jian Xuanji's heart, he had already determined that Ye Qing was qualified to be his husband.
In fact, Jian Xuanji had been looking for an outstanding young swordsman in the Sword Dynasty to be his husband.
But after so many years, Jian Xuanji had never found a suitable candidate.
The so-called outstanding swordsmen of the Sword Dynasty could not even enter Jian Xuanji's eyes.
Jian Xuanji had only met Ye Qing for a short while, but he had already completely approved of Ye Qing.
After Jian Xuanji returned to the palace, he slept in his own room and could not fall asleep.
That night, Ye Qing's face kept appearing in Jian Xuanji's mind. His heart was filled with love as he tossed and turned.
The night was long. After a torturous night, Jian Xuanji found the Emperor of the Sword Dynasty the next day and told him his thoughts.
As the eldest princess of the Sword Dynasty, Jian Xuanji was not young anymore. It was time for her to talk about marriage.
Many princesses younger than Jian Xuanji had been married for many years. Only Jian Xuanji had not found anyone she liked.
In fact, the Emperor of the Sword Dynasty had urged Jian Xuanji to get married many times since a long time ago. However, Jian Xuanji had not found a suitable candidate, so the marriage had been delayed.
Now that Jian Xuanji had taken the initiative to look for the Emperor of the Sword Dynasty to express his intentions, the Emperor was overjoyed. He immediately sent people to collect information about Ye Qing.
In fact, the Emperor knew a little about the Bright Sword Conference.
Although they had not witnessed Ye Qing's elegance with their own eyes, they knew that a powerful character had recently appeared in the Ninth Prince's camp. His name was Ye Qing, and his strength in the way of the sword was unparalleled. He was a peerless genius of the Sword Dynasty that was rarely seen in ten thousand years.
In fact, the Emperor had something on his mind to rope in Ye Qing. Coincidentally, Jian Xuanji had taken the initiative to express his thoughts, so he was even more tempted.
As the battle for the throne intensified, the Emperor of the Sword Dynasty was also worried. He was afraid that the battle for the throne would weaken the Sword Dynasty's strength.
In the battle between the Third Prince and the Seventh Prince, the Sword Dynasty's strength had been greatly damaged.
For many years, the Emperor had been watching, but he had no way to appoint the Crown Prince.
This was because the Emperor did not like the Third Prince and the Seventh Prince. The Third Prince and the Seventh Prince were both ruthless. If they were to rule in the future, they would be detrimental to the people.
In comparison, the Ninth Prince was much more benevolent. However, the Ninth Prince's overall strength was far inferior to the Third Prince and the Seventh Prince, so the Emperor had never considered the Ninth Prince.
Among the Emperor's many Princes, there were many benevolent Princes who were good at governing the country.
However, in terms of strength and methods, they were far inferior to the Third Prince and the Seventh Prince.
Recently, the Emperor had been deeply worried. He had all sorts of considerations for the future Crown Prince.
Now that the Ninth Prince had made an appearance and displayed his strength, he had managed to recruit a group of civil and military officials from the Sword Dynasty.
It seemed that the Ninth Prince would be favored in the battle for the throne.
Of course, the Emperor would not rashly make a decision. Everything would depend on the Ninth Prince's own efforts.
In the palace, the Emperor ordered his spies to report everything related to Ye Qing. He wanted to know more about Ye Qing. When the Emperor found out about the things that Ye Qing had done after coming to the Sword Dynasty, he was extremely shocked. The Emperor had underestimated Ye Qing's strength. He did not expect Ye Qing to be even more powerful than he had imagined.
It seemed that with Ye Qing's help, the Ninth Prince would have a high chance of winning the throne in the future.
Not long after the Emperor found out about Ye Qing, an imperial edict was sent out from the palace.
The Emperor had personally bestowed the marriage between the Eldest Princess of the Sword Dynasty, Jian Xuanji, and Ye Qing.
The news came very suddenly and shocked everyone.
The experts in the Sword Dynasty were all stunned. Jian Xuanji and Ye Qing had never met before. They might not even know each other. The Emperor had personally bestowed the marriage between Jian Xuanji and Ye Qing. It seemed that he had high hopes for the Ninth Prince.
The Emperor had always doted on the Eldest Princess, Jian Xuanji.
Now that the Eldest Princess was betrothed to Ye Qing, there was no doubt that the Ninth Prince's camp had increased their bargaining chip.
The Ninth Prince was overjoyed. He immediately gathered all the Officials under him for a meeting.
The Ninth Prince had high hopes for Ye Qing. He hoped that Ye Qing could marry the Eldest Princess as soon as possible. That way, their chances of winning the battle for the throne would be much higher.
