I Have A Sword

Chapter 202: Let Us Kowtow to You

The elites of the Guanxuan Academy and the cultivators who had decided to help the Guanxuan Academy wore somber expressions as they walked down the spacetime tunnel. The incident today was definitely one for the history books.

Only five Ancient Guanxuan Guards were left, and only two hundred swordsmen remained from the hundreds of swordsmen the Sword Sect had mobilized against the threat.

The Guanxuan Academy also lost many cultivators.

It was horrible.

The Guanxuan Academy was completely caught off guard.

Ye Guan silently swept his gaze across everyone.

These people are neither my family nor they have a connection to me, yet they’ve decisively risked their lives to protect me. Why? It’s because I’m the Sword Master’s son. My identity means I’ll live in glory, but it also means great responsibility.

What is that responsibility? Do I have to protect the Guanxuan Universe?

Ye Guan was under immense pressure. He had been nothing but an ordinary swordsman, but he became the Sword Master’s son today. Ye Guan found the fact that so many people had risked their lives to protect him to be quite burdensome.

It was a feeling that he couldn’t quite describe.

Li Banzhi suddenly walked up to Ye Guan and said, “Don’t overthink it.”

Li Banzhi was too weak to fight those monsters, as they were a generation older than her. In the end, she decided to leave with Ye Guan.

Ye Guan took a deep breath as he turned to look at Li Banzhi. “Aunt Zhi, I’m afraid that reinforcements may not arrive in time. I’m sure they’ve blockaded the Xuzhen World to stop Great Sword Sovereign Ah Luo and the others from reinforcing the Academy.”

Li Banzhi went silent. She reached the same conclusion as Ye Guan.

“Our goal is to reach the Eternal World,” said Ye Guan before continuing. “Aunt Zhi, I’m not familiar with the Eternal World. Can we really hold out against the Divine Spirits once we get there?”

Li Banzhi’s reply came a bit late as she said, “I can’t say for sure, but I know that going to the Eternal World is our only option at the moment.”

The only option... Ye Guan suddenly asked, “Aunt Zhi, I heard you say that the Martial Gods of the Eternal World are rushing over here.”

Li Banzhi nodded. “We should meet them in fifteen minutes.”

Ye Guan nodded his head in silence.

Li Banzhi noticed Ye Guan’s pensive expression and asked, “What are you thinking?”

“I’m just worried. I mean, they managed to lure over the Guanxuan Academy’s people in the Xuzhen World to their side, so what’s stopping them from doing the same to the Immortal Treasures Pavilion’s people in the Eternal World?”

Li Banzhi’s eyes narrowed.

Ye Guan said calmly, “We can go to the Eternal World, but I think we shouldn’t meet up with those Martial Gods. It’s always better to be safe than sorry. Divine Sovereign Taihe and the other Divine Spirits also didn’t really do anything to stop us from entering the spacetime tunnel. It’s really suspicious.”

Li Banzhi’s expression changed, and she roared, “Chief An You! Open a new spacetime tunnel!”

“Understood,” said An You. He then took a few people with him and disappeared somewhere. Moments later, a new spacetime tunnel was created, and everyone hopped into the new spacetime tunnel.

Li Banzhi turned to look at Ye Guan with admiration in her eyes.

He was indeed a meticulous young man.

Ye Guan suddenly said, “Chief An You.”

An You instantly replied, “Yes?”

Ye Guan looked at him. “Do you have people in the Eternal World?”

An You nodded. “Yes.”

Ye Guan asked, “Can we contact them?”

“Yes, we can,” said An You.

Ye Guan sounded solemn as he asked, “Who is the most reliable person in the Eternal World? They have to be at least ninety percent reliable.”

“Wu Lao from the Martial Court,” said An You, “Pavilion Master Qin was the one who brought him to the Martial Court, and he will definitely not betray Pavilion Master Qin or you, Young Master. Wu Lao is currently in command of the Martial God Guards.”

Ye Guan went silent. Eventually, he said, “The Martial God Guards are about to meet us in that spacetime tunnel earlier. I want you to bring your men to where we were supposed to meet the Martial God Guards. If their leader isn’t Wu Lao, we shouldn’t head to the Eternal World.”

An You froze, and his expression soon turned sour. The Eternal World wasn’t being blockaded like the Xuzhen World. In other words, Wu Lao must have definitely heard that Ye Guan is Pavilion Master Qin’s son.

Wu Lao must be in the group of Martial God Guards who are supposed to escort us all the way to the Eternal World. If he’s not with them, then there’s only going to be one explanation: something’s wrong in the Eternal World.

If that’s true, the Eternal World is a huge trap that we will have to avoid.

An You bowed deeply to Ye Guan before turning around to leave.

Ye Guan’s expression turned complicated as he swept his gaze across the people behind him. He didn’t want to overthink, but he had to be both meticulous and careful, as the lives of so many people were on his shoulders.

A small mistake meant a catastrophe.

After all, they weren’t really qualified to participate in this incident.

Ye Guan looked at Li Banzhi and asked, “Aunt Zhi, who is the de facto leader of the Immortal Treasures Pavilion?”

Li Banzhi responded, “It should be Lady Qing.”

“I’m sure she knows what’s going on,” said Ye Guan.

“That’s true.” Li Banzhi nodded and said, “I’m sure she’s rushing over to us as we speak.

Ye Guan nodded slightly before turning to the people around him.

“Everyone rest well and take care of your injuries,” he said.

Everyone nodded.

They survived, but the majority of them were severely injured.

The Sword Sect suffered the most during the brief battle.

Quite a few swordsmen died at the forefront, while the survivors were severely injured.

Ye Guan glanced at the people from the Department of Arts. Department Chief Shuxian and her disciple, Ye Guanzhi, stood at the helm of the group.

Ye Guanzhi smiled softly at Ye Guan.

Ye Guan nodded before turning to look elsewhere.

The one at the helm of the Divine Dao Department was Nanling Yiyi. The Divine Mages from the Divine Dao Department were extremely impactful during the battle. If they hadn’t tangled with the Divine Spirits, the Guanxuan Academy would have suffered even greater losses.

Nanling Yiyi was startled to see Ye Guan staring at her, but she hurriedly waved at him.

The Young Master? In her eyes, Ye Guan would always be her junior.

Ye Guan smiled before looking away.

His eyes landed on a silver-haired woman clad in a snow-white robe at the rearguard.

The woman was none other than Ji Xuan.

It turned out that she was from the Nether Palace, and she was the only disciple of the Nether Palace among the group. Hence, she cut a desolate figure as she stood at the edge of the rearguard by herself.

Ji Xuan quietly avoided Ye Guan’s gaze.

Ye Guan stared at Ji Xuan silently for quite a while before looking away.

Ji Xuan was slightly gloomy as she looked down at her feet upon realizing that Ye Guan was no longer staring at her. She felt conflicted. Ye Guan turned out to be the Young Master of the Guanxuan Academy—the Young Master!

Ji Xuan smiled softly—it was great news.

The better his background, the happier Ji Xuan would be.

Ye Guan turned to look at Time Paradise.

Roughly half of Time Paradise’s elite had perished. The Lingxu Blessed Land also suffered significant losses. Ye Guan would never forget how the two clans had risked their lives to help him resist the enemies.

Ye Guan walked over to Nanli Yin and Zhang Yuntian.

The two were about to bow and greet him, but Ye Guan stopped them.

Ye Guan spoke softly, “I’m sorry, Seniors.”

“Young Master, please don’t say that…” said Zhang Yuntian. He shook his head with a smile and continued, “I truly had no idea that you were the Sword Master’s son—our Young Master.”

Zhang Yuntian finally understood why their ancestor wanted him to help Ye Guan no matter what.

Nanli Yin was in the same boat as Zhang Yuntian.

She truly didn’t expect the lie she had told the elders to assuage their worries would end up being the truth. Nanli Yin couldn’t help but laugh upon recalling her bluff, and she finally understood why Nanli Meng forced her to help Ye Guan.

Meanwhile, the elders of Time Paradise were overjoyed. Nanli Yin’s bluff convinced them that Ye Guan was the Sword Master’s son, so they weren’t shocked by the turn of events.

The Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan was happier than both Time Paradise and the Lingxu Blessed Land.

Clan Leader Ao Sheng and the elders of the Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan were over the moon. Ao Qianqian had established a contract with Ye Guan, and the two of them were even capable of becoming one. They had an extraordinary relationship, so the Ancient Heavenly Dragon could be considered to have hit the jackpot.

The Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan members were above cloud nine and were over the moon. Ao Qianqian truly had a great eye for people. If the Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan had chosen Lu Tian, they would have been screwed.

Ye Guan cast a worried gaze at the other spacetime tunnel. It seemed that the Guanxuan Universe had become weaker than the True World. Ye Guan was also convinced that there was turmoil within the Main Guanxuan Academy.

Otherwise, the True World denizens wouldn’t have been able to infiltrate the Main Guanxuan Academy.

Swoosh!

An You appeared in front of Ye Guan.

His gaze was serious as he said, “Our men have met with them.”

“How are they?” asked Ye Guan.

An You said somberly, “Wu Lao isn’t their leader, and our men also found them suspicious.”

Ye Guan’s expression fell.

Li Banzhi’s brows furrowed.

It was terrifying how even the Immortal Treasures Pavilion was problematic.

An You asked, “Young Master, what should we do?”

An You was flustered. If there were issues at the Eternal World, it meant that the Immortal Treasures Pavilion was anything but a safe haven for them.

Ye Guan fell deep into thought.

Rumble!

The other spacetime tunnel suddenly collapsed, and its destruction sent a wave of cataclysmic energy toward the spacetime tunnel where Ye Guan and the others were located.

An You’s expression changed. He waved his sleeve, and the scenery peeled away.

Everyone suddenly found themselves in the middle of the starry skies.

Roughly a hundred people stood in the distance, seemingly waiting for them.

A middle-aged man stood at the helm of the group of people.

An You’s face fell, and he said, “Young Master, they’re the Martial God Guards who were supposed to escort us to safety.”

Ye Guan quietly stared at the middle-aged man. So they have rebelled. Ye Guan’s frown deepened. Has the Immortal Treasures Pavilion always been this corrupt?

The middle-aged man found Ye Guan, and he didn’t even bother talking to Ye Guan as he roared, “Get them!”

“Who dares to touch our Young Master?!” a bellow echoed from the depths of the starry skies. The stars quivered slightly as the furious roar swept past them. Everyone turned and found a massive ship tearing through space. contemporary romance

An old man stood at the bow of the ship, and he was none other than Wu Lao!

A hundred thousand smaller ships followed Wu Lao’s humongous space ship.

Crackle!

The spacetime itself was torn open as an enormous rift in space manifested. A horrifying aura seeped out of the rift, and a hundred thousand cultivators clad in purple armor soon walked out of the rift.

The starry skies seemed to tremble with every step they took.

“Greetings, Young Master!”

The cultivators clad in purple armor fell to the ground at the same time.

“Please forgive us for the tardiness, Young Master, and please let us kowtow to you.”

With that, they all kowtowed to Ye Guan.
