I Have A Sword

Chapter 315: Tian Ye?



Chapter 315: Tian Ye?

Nangong Xue was furious when she heard Chen He. She clenched her fists tightly, and the disgust on her face intensified. She had never met someone as shameless as Chen He.

Chen He ignored her and looked at Ye Guan. He was about to say something when Ye Guan suddenly disappeared.

A ray of sword light rushed toward him.

Chen He did not think that Ye Guan would attack without even saying anything. His face changed drastically, and he wanted to retaliate, but a mysterious force wrapped and immobilized him.

A Sword Domain!

Chen He felt as though thousands of mountains were weighing down on him.

He felt heavy, and he couldn't move an inch.

Shwik!

A sword pierced his forehead, and his eyes widened in disbelief.

The people behind him went pale when they saw that Chen He was suppressed in the blink of an eye. They immediately tried to escape, but Ye Guan rushed toward them and slashed out.

Heads went flying in all directions—the riffraff was killed in an instant!

Ye Guan had made it look so easy, but it had to be known that they weren't weak under any circumstances. Of course, Ye Guan could still kill them, but it would have been a bit difficult if they had fully recovered and hadn't suffered a mental shock upon witnessing Chen He's swift death.

The shock had paralyzed their minds, and they lost their heads as a result.

Nangong Xue's heart was gripped by extreme shock as she watched Ye Guan behead their enemies one after another. She knew that even though Ye Guan's cultivation base was low, he wasn't someone to be trifled with. However, Ye Guan's display of prowess at the moment had exceeded Nangong Xue's expectations.

Has he been pretending to be weak so that he can kill those stronger than him?

Ye Guan walked slowly toward Chen He, who was still breathing. He cast a fearful gaze upon Ye Guan, and he was trembling like an aspen tree as he said, “My dad is a peak Divine Sovereign! He's not going to let you go if you kill me!”

He opened his hand, revealing a scorched transmission talisman. He had decided to ask his father for help.

Ye Guan frowned and was about to kill Chen He, but Chen He was abruptly overcome by fear.

“Why can’t I contact him? How can this be…”

Nangong Xue calmly asked, “Maybe because he’s dead?”

“Nonsense!” Chen He yelled, “My dad is a peak Divine Sovereign Realm cultivator. Even if a few Great Sovereigns were to besiege him, they still wouldn't be able to kill him. How could he be dead?”

Nangong Xue asked, “But what if he's actually dead?”

“There's no way he's dead!” Chen He shouted.

Nangong Xue said, “Do it again, then.”

Chen He crushed another transmission talisman, but there was still no reply.

Blood drained from Chen He's face as his heart was gripped by fear.

Now, he was truly afraid. He had been fearless because he knew that his father was there to help him even if the sky were to collapse upon him. However, he couldn't contact his father anymore, which meant he no longer had a backer!

"You poor thing," Nangong Xue sounded as if she pitied Chen He as she muttered, “You've lost your father at such a young age…”

Ye Guan was stunned as she stared at Nangong Xue.

Nangong Xue's cheeks flushed in embarrassment, thinking that she might have gone a bit too far.

Chen He wanted to say something, but Nangong Xue punched him.

Boom!

Chen He exploded into a bloody mist—both his body and soul were obliterated.

Nangong Xue clapped her hands to dust them off. Her eyes were filled with disgust and scorn as she said, “I feel like my hands have gotten dirty by killing such a disgusting person."

She then looked at Ye Guan and broke out into a grin. “We should go, Young Lord Ye!”

Ye Guan nodded. “All right.”

He proceeded to retrieve Chen He and his crew's storage rings, and they all contained a total of ten million spiritual cores. It wasn't a huge amount to him, but it was better than zero. In addition, who would complain that they had too much money?

Ye Guan didn't keep it all for himself. He gave half of it to Nangong Xue. At first, she declined, but Ye Guan insisted. In the end, she could only smile and accept the five million spiritual cores he had offered to her.

About an hour later, Ye Guan and Nangong Xue arrived at the Westernmost Divine Continent. Ye Guan looked around and noticed a myriad of calamities blotting out the skies.

Each and every one of them was a terrifying sight to behold, and they were unpredictable. A calamity could even appear right above anyone's head, which would be terrifying.

Nangong Xue suddenly grabbed Ye Guan’s arm and said, “Follow me.”

With that, she dragged Ye Guan with him as they flew away together.

Any other cultivator would have any issues traversing such a dangerous region, but Ye Guan was astonished to discover that Nangong Xue seemed capable of clairvoyance. The path she had taken was devoid of any calamities, and even when they appeared, Nangong Xue would always find the path to dodge them perfectly.

Ye Guan wanted to ask about it, but it seemed Nangong Xue had seen the surprise on his face as she explained, “We've been researching these calamities for a long time, and we already know how they work, and it allows us to coexist with them. Of course, there are exceptions. Sometimes, they are born unstable.”

Ye Guan smiled and said, “It must have been difficult living in a place like this."

Nangong Xue was about to respond when the spacetime in front of them was abruptly torn apart.

An old man walked out of the rift.

Nangong Xue exclaimed, “Third Uncle!”

The old man glanced at Ye Guan before focusing his gaze on Nangong Xue.

“Welcome back,” the old man said with a smile.

Nangong Xue nodded and explained, “Third Uncle, let me introduce you to Young Lord Ye. He’s a friend whom I just met.”

The old man looked at Ye Guan and asked, “Are you from the Ye Clan in the Southernmost Divine Continent?”

Ye Guan shook his head and said, “No.”

“Oh.” The old man looked away and stared at Nangong Xue. “Your father told me to fetch you, so let’s go.”

Nangong Xue nodded. She then glanced at Ye Guan and said, “Let’s go.”

Ye Guan nodded and replied, “Sre.”

The old man glanced at Ye Guan, but he didn't say anything about it.

Soon, they all arrived at the Nangong Clan. The Nangong Clan was located deep within a mountain range, and Ye Guan could see countless mysterious arrays enveloping the skies above the mountain range.

They soon made their way to the Nangong Residence. Nangong Xue gave Ye Guan a residence with a courtyard where he could stay temporarily. Ye Guan entered the courtyard, went into his room, and closed the door before making his way into the world inside the tiny pagoda.

Thankfully, his aunt didn't seal the tiny pagoda.

Ye Guan sat down cross-legged and took out the Ancient Divine Puppet Refinement Method to study. He studied it for nearly a day before he got a good grasp of it, and he quickly realized that refining an ancient puppet was more difficult than he thought.

An Ancient Divine Puppet demanded a ton of resources for its refinement. It would have been fine if it only needed a ton of resources. The issue was that those resources were rare, and each of them would cost anyone an arm and a leg.

Ye Guan found himself in a difficult situation.

If he were in the Guanxuan Universe, he wouldn't have to worry about this issue, but it was exceedingly difficult to try and gather such precious materials here. Still, Ye Guan had no plans to give up his plan just like that.contemporary romance

Ancient Divine Puppets were just too strong for him to ignore. Ye Guan had even decided to refine a Great Sovereign puppet rather than just a Half-step Great Sovereign puppet.

In the end, Ye Guan had to put away the Ancient Divine Puppet Refinement Method.

“It seems that I’ll still have to ask for Lady Nangong Xue's help," he muttered.

He stood up and left the world inside the tiny pagoda.

Ye Guan left his room and closed the door behind him, but he was startled to find Nangong Xue standing in front of him the moment he turned around to leave.

The long white dress she was wearing was as white as snow, and her gorgeous figure was made even more breathtaking by the white dress. The light in her eyes was rather cold, which matched perfectly with her outfit.

Ye Guan walked up to her and asked, “Lady Nangong Xue, what’s wrong?”

Nangong Xue lowered her head. She looked upset, but she remained silent.

Ye Guan was a little puzzled. “Lady Nangong Xue, you…”

“We shouldn't have come back here.”

“What happened?”

“The members of the Xue Clan in the Northernmost Divine Continent had visited us just now. They're hoping to establish an alliance between our clans through marriage between our members. My father and big sister have already agreed to their offer."

An alliance through marriage? Ye Guan fell silent. He was more familiar than anyone with the fact that clans loved to form alliances through marriage. It was also the expansion weapon of choice as it created a strong relationship between clans.

Ye Guan was just an outsider, so he had no right to say anything about the matter.

Nangong Xue suddenly asked, “What do you think?”

Ye Guan smiled, and he sounded polite as he said, “Hmm, I still think that it’s better to get married to someone you love. A loveless marriage would just be painful for both parties."

Nangong Xue grinned brightly and nodded. “I think so, too.”

“What a joke!” a cold voice boomed from the side.

Ye Guan turned and found a young man dressed in a pristine white robe. He was handsome, and the handheld fan in his hand made him emit a graceful air, but he still couldn't compare to Ye Guan in the looks department. Regardless, he wasn't that far off and was handsome in his own right.

Nangong Xue’s expression darkened, and her smile vanished in an instant.

The white-robed young man walked up to Ye Guan and glared at him.

“Do you know why clans form alliances through marriage?” he asked.

Ye Guan nodded and replied, “Because it's a win-win for both parties.”

The white-robed young man scoffed and said, “It seems you know the logic behind it, so how come you still dared to say something so absurd?"

He chuckled before Ye Guan could reply and continued. “Well, I guess it's not strange. I heard from Nangong Yun that you’re a paltry rogue cultivator. How can a rogue cultivator understand the importance of marriage alliances between clans and families?”

“I don't understand it because my family doesn’t need to create alliances through marriages,” Ye Guan retorted.

"Oh?" the white-robed young man replied sarcastically, “It must be because no one wants to marry the members of your family.”

Ye Guan made a sidelong glance at the white-robed young man before turning to look at Nangong Xue. “You’re too good for him, and you deserve better than a dumbass for your husband.”

Nangong Xue froze, but a chuckle soon emerged from her lips. Her demeanor brightened up as she broke out into a grin.

Meanwhile, the white-robed young man was enraged.

“Fuck you! How dare you insult me!”

"Xue Chen, where have your manners gone? Nangong Xue chimed in, “Can you speak in a more civilized manner like Young Lord Ye?”

Xue Chen was rendered speechless. He then glared at Nangong Xue and said, "Nangong Xue, your parents have already agreed to our marriage. Both sides have reviewed and signed the relevant documents, so you're already my fiancee—"

"No, I didn't say that I'd agree to it," Nangong Xue interrupted him and said, “I still haven't reviewed the relevant documents, so the so-called marriage contract between us is non-existent.

"And even if the documents have been reviewed and signed, I still won't acknowledge you as my fiancé.”

Xue Chen pointed angrily at Ye Guan and roared, “Is it because of this man?!”

Nangong Xue wanted to say yes, but it meant redirecting Xue Chen's anger upon Ye Guan. Xue Chen wasn't that much of a threat, but it was unwise to provoke the Xue Clan.

Nangong Xue's voice sounded similar to a mosquito's droning as she muttered, “I-It has nothing to do with him.”

“Nothing to do with him?” Xue Chen roared, “Nangong Xue, do you really think that I'm a fool?!”

He then looked at Ye Guan and threatened, “If you're still here after ten seconds have passed, I'll kill you and annihilate your family!”

Little Pagoda heard that, and he couldn't help but say, “There was once someone as bold as him.”

The mysterious lady asked, “Who?”

Little Pagoda replied, “Tian Ye!”

The mysterious lady was at a loss for words.
