Chapter 264: The Path Sword Is Going to Play On Its Own
Ye Guan was stunned, and he turned around in shock. Who was it?
A young woman hovered behind him.
She was wearing a crimson skirt, and her entire body was red; she didn’t look like a human being at all. Ye Guan was bewildered. He couldn’t recognize the young woman. Was she from the Guanxuan Universe? Who was she?
Suddenly, he flinched in realization, and his eyes widened in disbelief.
The blood coursing through her veins felt way too familiar to him. He couldn’t recognize her, but he recognized the Mad Demon Bloodline running through her veins!
She’s my sister! Ye Guan was sure of it. The young woman had to be the sister he had never met before.
Wow, she looks strong! Ye Guan was surprised and excited to see his sister, as he had never expected to meet her here. He couldn’t help but hope that he had more powerful sisters somewhere.
The young woman walked up to Ye Guan while emitting a sharp killing intent that swept past Ye Guan. However, Ye Guan was unperturbed. On the contrary, he felt familiar with it. It was all thanks to the same blood coursing within them.
The young woman stared at Ye Guan and asked, “Do you know who I am?”
Ye Guan nodded excitedly. “You’re my sister!”
The young woman’s cold face softened, and she nodded.
“I’ll fight the strongest one,” she said before turning around and walking toward the young man in the distance. The young man was wearing a crown, and he was dressed in silk robes. He was emitting an inscrutable majesty as he strolled unhurriedly toward Ye Guan and the young woman.
There was a strange tinge of energy in his aura, and the world seemed to tremble in his presence.
He was Hao Xuan—the strongest on the True Martial List.
He was only eighteen, but he was already a Divine Sovereign. He was the best talent that the True Universe had ever seen over the past few million years. In addition, he was the fastest individual to reach rank one on the True Martial List.
It only took him a single day to defeat the talents on the True Martial List and climb his way up to the top.
Furthermore, he had already gotten strong enough to kill Divine Sovereigns despite being just an Immortal Realm cultivator, and it was a testament to his prowess.
Hao Xuan was now a Divine Sovereign.
There were ten young men and two young women standing behind him.
They were very young; the oldest was only nineteen years old.
However, they were Time Immortal Realm cultivators despite their young age. They were all emitting an intense fierceness, and their eyes were filled with killing intent. It was clear that they had a lot of experience when it came to fights.
Ye Guan didn’t know them, but the Divine Spirits were familiar with them.
The onlookers were solemn, but their eyes were filled with respect.
They were the young talents of the Jin Guards.
The Jin Guards were the strongest armed force among the armed forces of the True Universe. The True Universe was massive and complicated. The waters were muddy, and there were multiple factions fighting for supremacy, just like the Guanxuan Universe.
The only difference was that the clans and aristocratic families of the True Universe groomed their own talents, while the True Universe looked for talents to groom among the common folk
Those talents would end up being extremely loyal to the armed forces they were affiliated with as well as to the True God. They were the type of people who thought of fame as nothing but useless embellishments. In other words, they weren’t the type of people to challenge the True Martial List.
The duty of the True Universe’s armed forces was to protect the True Universe from external threats.
During that war, the Jin Guards fought the hardest, and the Sword Master had almost annihilated them. However, the Jin Guards remained steadfast despite their casualties, and they all died in front of the True God Hall.
The Jin Guards didn’t retreat even when the Sword Master had spurred his Mad Demon Bloodline to action and went mad. As a result, the True Universe earned the respect of the True Universe’s denizens, and they were still respected even now.
Ye Guan swept his gaze across Hao Xuan and the Jin Guards. He could feel it—they were strong. Hao Xuan walked up to the young woman wearing a crimson skirt. He glanced at Ye Guan before saying, “Let’s fight!”
Hao Xuan clenched his fist, and a resonant boom echoed as the spacetime before the young woman wearing a crimson skirt distorted. She was engulfed by the distorted spacetime, and Hao Xuan entered the distortion as well.
The two were now on an isolated battlefield. The young woman wearing a crimson skirt stared calmly and indifferently at Hao Xuan. Moments later, she flicked her sleeve, and an ink-like streak akin to a brush stroke drew an arc in the air.
The young woman wearing a crimson skirt was decisive.
She knew that there could only be one winner between them.
Shwing!
The ink-like streak peeled the spacetime away as if it were an onion.
Those ignorant would assume that spacetime was the only thing getting ripped apart, but those with trained eyes would be able to see that the attack was lacerating the Daos of the True Universe as well and was gnawing away at its life at the same time.
In other words, the young woman wearing a crimson skirt could destroy an entire world if she wanted to do so.
Hao Xuan’s eyes narrowed. He didn’t underestimate his opponent. He hurled a fist imprint, and it shattered every inch of spacetime that dared to stand in its path as it made a beeline for the young woman wearing a crimson skirt.
However, Hao Xuan sent another punch.
Boom!
The surrounding kilometer of spacetime crumbled, and the two of them entered a dark patch in spacetime. The young woman wearing a crimson skirt’s attack was stopped by the fist imprint, but she quickly vanished.
A powerful wave of bloodline energy struck Hao Xuan, sending him a few hundred meters away.
The two were now outside of the dark patch in spacetime.
This time, they found themselves in what seemed like a boundless stretch of spacetime. The simultaneous destruction of two domains had flung the two into the boundless stretch of spacetime.
Hao Xuan took a moment to compose himself. He glanced at his right hand and found that it was gone—it had been devoured by the dark patch in spacetime.
Hao Xuan burst out laughing. No one was daring enough to challenge him, as he was ranked one on the True Martial List, but at last, he finally found his match.
“Come!” Hao Xuan yelled and stomped. The boundless stretch of spacetime turned chaotic as his fist imprint pervaded everything as far as the eye could see. A sinister light fleeted across the young woman wearing a crimson skirt’s eyes.
Swoosh!
She vanished and reappeared in front of Hao Xuan to face his fist head-on.
Boom!
A crimson light inundated the entire boundless stretch of spacetime, and it started crumbling beneath the sheer power that the two cultivators were using as they fought such a fierce battle.
Ye Guan looked away and muttered, “It seems that I’m the weakest in my family.”
Ye Guan was truly quite shocked upon realizing just how overpowered his sister was. A typical Divine Sovereign wouldn’t stand a chance against her. Furthermore, it seemed that his sister was only a year older than him. She was incredibly talented!
Ye Guan sighed to himself. Originally, he had been worried that he was progressing too quickly, but now, it seemed that he was still too weak.
There would always be someone better than him out there. Eventually, Ye Guan put his thoughts aside as close to twenty thousand Divine Spirits rushed to kill him.
Just then, a Jin Guard yelled, “All of you, back off!”
The Divine Spirits froze in their spots, and they hesitated for a while before they backed off to the side. Ye Guan stared at the leader of the Jin Guards’ younger generation while the latter also stared intently at Ye Guan.
Right as Ye Guan was about to make a move, a young woman among the twelve Jin Guards suddenly disappeared like a ghost. At the same time, the spacetime five hundred meters around her crumbled.
A mysterious crimson iron chain appeared, and it made a beeline for Ye Guan in an attempt to immobilize him.
Without wasting any time, Ye Guan swung his sword. The iron chain was shattered, but a beam of red light struck the Path Sword.
Ye Guan’s brows furrowed slightly. He wanted to make another move, but he was horrified to find that the Path Sword wasn’t in this spacetime anymore. He had been separated from the Path Sword!
An illusory figure rushed toward Ye Guan.
Ye Guan’s arms quivered violently as he pushed his palms forward.
Shake the Heavens!
Boom!
The illusory figure was blasted away. Just then, a young man rushed toward him.
The young man was a part of the Jin Guards, and he decisively punched at Ye Guan.
Ba Wan was surrounded by five Jin Guards, and she wouldn’t be able to help Ye Guan even if she wanted to do so.
However, Ye Guan remained calm and composed despite the oppressive aura that the oncoming fist imprint was carrying with it as it flew toward Ye Guan. Ye Guan stepped forward and performed a punch with the World Devastation Art.
Rumble!
The forceful punch sent the young man flying, but Ye Guan was also forced backward by his opponent’s formidable fist imprint. He had yet to recover his balance when a rift in spacetime appeared before him and out came a spear. It was a simple and humble spear thrust, but Ye Guan felt a sense of foreboding.
The spear shattered every inch of spacetime on its way to Ye Guan.
Ye Guan’s pupils constricted. He opened his palm and gestured as if he were plucking celestial bodies.
Pluck the Stars!
Rumble!
A colossal hand manifested and burst through the clouds, hitting the spear and sending it to the ground in the blink of an eye. The resulting shockwave sent the young Jin Guard flying a few hundred meters away.
Ye Guan hurriedly followed up with a powerful punch.
World Devastation Art!
A thunderous boom echoed as another Jin Guard was blasted backward. Ye Guan pointed at an oncoming Jin Guard with his finger, and a sword made from sword energy streaked across the skies, cutting down the latter.
Immediately afterward, Ye Guan attempted to recall the Path Sword with a thought.
However, he couldn’t sense the Path Sword at all.
What’s going on? Ye Guan frowned and turned to look at the Path Sword. contemporary romance
It was hovering in a bubble of spacetime not too far away from him.
A member of the Jin Guards—a young woman was casting spells on the Path Sword. Ye Guan instantly saw through what she was trying to do. She was trying to break the spiritual connection between the Path Sword and Ye Guan!
Ye Guan’s brows furrowed. The young woman had isolated the Path Sword in a different layer of spacetime, and she was in the middle of severing Ye Guan’s spiritual connection with the sword.
Ye Guan swept his gaze across the other Jin Guards and said, “I will be honest. You should send the Path Sword back to me or be prepared to accept the consequences.”
The young man, who seemed to be the leader of the young Jin Guards, stared at Ye Guan and asked sarcastically, “Is that so?”
Ye Guan stared alternatingly between the young man and the Path Sword.
“It’s soon going to play on its own—”
Ye Guan couldn’t finish his sentence upon being interrupted by a resonant hum.
The Path Sword quivered violently, and a radiant sword light bedazzled everyone.
When they recovered their vision, they were stunned to discover that the young woman next to the Path Sword had vanished as if she had never even existed in the first place. The bubble of spacetime that she had deployed had been obliterated.
The young Jin Guards stood frozen in place.
Ye Guan was silent as well. He was indeed not worthy of wielding the Path Sword.
Goodness!
The Path Sword left to its own devices was more overpowered than in Ye Guan’s hands.
