LEGEND OF THE ETERNAL FLAME WARRIOR
Episodes 178. The two Imperial Border Path
The Jia Family Residence.
4 Days had passed since Jia Li's father sent a message to the thousand sword sect and waited for the arrival of the 4 warriors who would escort his daughter.
Jia Li who was preparing with his departure to the city of Heihan now walked out of the room accompanied by 2 personal servants to the room owned by his father.
Arriving in the room, he found his father sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed.
Jia Wang was the head of the family as well as the supreme leader of the Jia family who controlled the trade routes between the 2 empires.
Currently Jia Wang himself is doing deep energy training meditation to become a swordsman in his family.
Although the Jia family was not actually a family of warriors, but he thought that a family leader should at least have capable strength to protect his family, so Jia Wang decided to practice martial arts.
His training did not escape the guidance of his best bodyguard, Tao Ming, who is currently not in place.
Thanks to the training knowledge taught by Tao Ming, Jia Wang has now managed to form a deep power and has managed to master several fighting techniques.
It could be said that currently Jia Wang was the only member of the Jia family who practiced martial arts and had already been at the one-star bronze level in training for the past few months.
"Greetings father." Respect Jia Li.
"What's my daughter." Jia Wang replied as he opened his eyes and stopped the training he was doing.
"Hmm it's okay dad, I just want to make sure, is before I head to the city of Heihan I really have to stop at the imperial capital of Wei as well?" Jia Li asked who was feeling lazy to go to one of his trade branches in that imperial capital of Wei.
Jia Wang who understood Jia Li's intent looked awkwardly smiling and said. "You don't like it, you don't like it with Jia Renqi and you don't want to see him."
"Hmp he's a very annoying young man, I really don't like young men whose work just wants to impress me." Jia Li replied with her pouting face.
"Haihh, I'm sorry son, but you still have to stop by there to store and pick up some of our merchandise, because in our family branch that is there has a stock of merchandise that we do not have here." Answer Jia Wang.
"Always like this, if it continues like this, I'd rather be a swordsman just to be able to kick Jia Renqi's ass." Jia Li replied as he stepped out with the foot he had kicked.
Jia Wang who saw the princess only shook his head for a moment before muttering. "Hmm if the child is serious about what he says, should I make all my family members also have martial skills.
Come to think of it. This large family member like my family does need strength and does not have to continue to rely on warriors and bodyguards." Thought Jia Wang.
Meanwhile Jia Li who was feeling very upset suddenly changed his facial expression because he was reminded by a masked swordsman who had saved his life the other day.
Jia Li seemed to smile sweetly as he recalled the incident he had experienced.
"Ling Yan, although I did not see her face directly, but somehow there was a slight feeling that shook as I remembered her name." Jia Li muttered while looking at the blue sky.
*****
Hacciiu...
Ling Yan rubbed his itchy nose.
"What's wrong with you? Are you sick?" Yan Shiki asked Ling Yan who was behind him while running.
"Ah, no teacher Yan, my nose just feels a little itchy." Ling Yan replied which greeted a nod of the head from Yan Shiki.
2 Days had passed since his fourth departure towards the Wei empire.
Right now the four of them had already not long ago reached the border area between the Wei empire and the Feng empire.
In fact they could have gone even faster towards the bufeng city if only they wanted to take the same route as Ling Yan while heading towards the thousand sword sect back then.
But it would be very dangerous because it would make them pass through the dark forest filled with many ordinary animals and demons.
Therefore, to avoid this, Yan Shiki who led the journey now took a detour and passed through several villages that were not far from the area of the lotus city where Ling Yan lived.
"Hei Ling Yan." Said Shuyang who was also running.
"Hmm what's up?" Asked Ling Yan while turning his face a glance.
"The city to the south is the city where you live, right?" Ask Shuyang.
Ling Yan only nodded then asked back.
"That's right, why?" Asked Ling Yan.
"Hehehe no, just wanted to make sure ." Shuyang replied while chuckling.
While Ling Yan simply rolled his eyes before increasing his running speed was followed by Shuyang and Han Li.
"It's been almost 3 months since I left home without telling my mom and dad about how they would express themselves.
Hmm... I became curious, how are Yu Fei and Yu Qian now, whether Yu Fei has now risen to the gold level." Ling Yan muttered.
Soon the four of them had now reached the borders of Feng and Wei empires, which made them stop their steps.
"From here we will walk normally, for we must report our arrival first to the border guards." It was clearly Yan Shiki who was greeted with a nod from the three disciples who were carrying out the mission with him.
The four of them could have actually passed another path to avoid the border guards between the two empires without having to show their identity plates.
However, because the mission this time was to escort a princess from the Jia family, they were forced to pass through the path because surely this Jia family group would pass through that path as well to go to the Wei empire.
And at that very moment, if their identities were not on the list of names of the people who passed through the path, the four of them could have been detained and could even have been suspected of being intruders from other empires.
Arriving at the border region, these four thousand sword sect warriors were greeted with a sight of the troops from the Feng empire as well as the Wei empire that was in charge of guarding the border area.
"Hmp, you can show me your identity." Said one of the soldiers with his fierce face.
Up close, Ling Yan was able to measure the strength of those soldiers on par with the ability of a 1-star silver swordsman.
"We are from the thousand swords sect, we received a mission from our chief to escort the Jia family entourage, this is a letter of proof of our assignment." Yan Shiki gave a scroll to that Wei imperial warrior.
After reading the scroll, the Wei imperial warrior finally nodded and invited Yan Shiki and the three disciples including Ling Yan to pass by.
But before that the four must pay as much as 5 gold pieces per person before crossing the border.
