"Queen, to tell you the truth, I have always yearned for the Shushan Sword Sect, and I've heard that the Shushan Sword Saint has heaven-reaching cultivation. If I could become his disciple, it would be the greatest fortune in the world."
Mufeng walked alongside the Empress Wu, speaking as they went. He knew full well about the fruitless romance between the Empress Wu and the Sword Saint, and he intentionally brought it up for her to hear. This feeling of gratitude from the Empress Wu was a hidden reward left over from successfully clearing the previous instance, and now it could be used just in time.
"Oh? Is that so! You did me a huge favor over ten years ago—you could say you saved the lives of both me and my daughter—and I haven't repaid you yet. Since you want to take the Sword Saint as your master, I can be of help. Once I write a letter, you can take it to the Sword Saint. Out of regard for me, he will treat you favorably. However, whether you can get your wish in the end still depends on your own fortune."
