I Have A Sword

Chapter 196: Serve the Throne!

The Dao Soldiers came back to their senses when they heard Shangguan Zhan’s war cry. It was time to atone for their sins.

Grand Elder Ge had told them to come and kill Ye Guan, so they truly never thought that Ye Guan would actually be their Young Master!

Ye Guan was the Young Master of both the Guanxuan Academy and the Immortal Treasure Pavilion, which meant that they had actually gathered here to kill their Young Master.

Fuck!

The Dao Soldiers and everyone else who had gathered under Grand Elder Ge’s banner wanted to eat the latter alive. They would live if Ye Guan survived, but if Ye Guan were to die here, they would all be executed.

It was impossible to endure Pavilion Master Qin’s wrath!

The Immortal Treasures Pavilion’s Dao Soldiers and Immortal Soldiers rushed to protect Ye Guan.

Meanwhile, Lu Tian’s supporters were panicking. What should we do? Help Lu Tian kill Ye Guan? That doesn’t seem right. No, it’s definitely not right!

The Divine Spirits were trying to kill Ye Guan rather than Lu Tian. In addition, if they tried to kill Ye Guan, it would be considered a rebellion and a betrayal to the Guanxuan Universe. The consequences of such actions were unimaginable.

A member of an aristocratic family yelled, “Lu Tian actually dared to collude with the Divine Spirits! Fuck! Protect the Young Master! Hurry up and protect him!”

Just then, Li Banzhi’s voice pervaded the air. “Those below the True Realm should retreat immediately. Don’t stay here!”

More and more Divine Spirits were gathering, and each of them was extremely powerful and terrifying in their own right.

The powerhouses here were nothing but ants to those Divine Spirits. Ten Divine Generals were strong enough to suppress even a hundred Sword Sovereigns, but hundreds of Divine Generals had already gathered here.

To make matters worse, there were even ten Divine Kings here. If it hadn’t been for Li Banzhi’s decision to transfer a few Ancient Guanxuan Guards to the Guanxuan Academy, a catastrophe would have unfolded.

The members and disciples of the aristocratic families and great clans hesitated slightly, but they soon retreated. It didn’t take them that long to realize just how strong the Divine Spirits were, and they were no match for them at all.

In other words, staying here meant that they would only be cannon fodder!

Multiple rifts in space opened in all cardinal cardinals; hordes after hordes of Divine Generals emerged from the rifts in space.

Li Banzhi’s eyes narrowed. The only people who could resist so many Divine Spirits were those elites in the Xuzhen World. Unfortunately, she couldn’t contact Taichu Jing and the rest of the Guanxuan Academy’s elites in the Xuzhen World.

In other words, the Divine Spirits’ ambush today had been a carefully planned attack.

Just then, the clan leader of a clan suddenly came to a halt. He turned to look at everyone else and said, “Everyone, we’ll survive today’s events, but we will undoubtedly die in the future.”

A cold look flashed past another clan leader’s eyes as he said, “Clan Leader Mo Zong, are you suggesting that we try to kill Ye Guan?”

Everyone’s faces immediately changed. Are we really going to rebel?

What they had done amidst their ignorance couldn’t really be considered a rebellion, but if they were to kill Ye Guan after learning that he was their Young Master, there was no way for them to avoid annihilation, as that would be a bonafide rebellion.

Clan Leader Mo Zong roared, “No! Can’t you see who’s targeting the Young Master? Those are Divine Spirits—the enemies of the Guanxuan Universe. What I’m trying to say is that we should earn some merit to make up for our mistakes.”

“Right…” The clan leader who had spoken of rebellion just now laughed sheepishly and asked, “What do you think we should do, then, Clan Leader Mo Zong?”

Everyone looked at Mo Zong, waiting for him to say something.

Mo Zong muttered in response, “In terms of strength, we are no match for the Divine Spirits. We’ll only become cannon fodder if we were to go there and fight. The only way we can fight those Divine Spirits is with the help of our ancestors. Hence, I suggest that we summon our ancestors and let them deal with those Divine Spirits. If we manage to ensure the Young Master’s safety, we’ll still get punished, but we may be able to avoid clan annihilation.”

Avoiding clan annihilation! Everyone glanced at each other and nodded. They could still remember how their blood ran cold upon finding out that Ye Guan was their Young Master.

They were afraid, as they knew that they would definitely be punished for supporting the wrong person. In fact, clan annihilation would be considered light punishment for what they had done.

However, the golden opportunity for them to avoid the sad fate of clan annihilation was right in front of them! The clan leaders and family patriarchs of the clans and aristocratic families didn’t even think about it.

They decisively summoned their ancestors.

Boom!

Roughly a hundred thousand rays of light rose to the sky, and roughly a hundred thousand powerful auras descended in response, pervading the skies. The entire world seemed to have awakened in response to the gathering of powerful auras.

The ancestors of the many clans and aristocratic families were stunned.

What’s going on? What’s with the racket?

“Ancestors!” Mo Zong yelled, “Please help our Young Master!”

He pointed at Ye Guan and said, “He’s our Young Master!”

Young Master!

The Mo Clan’s ancestors looked at Ye Guan in shock. The Sword Master’s son was here? Unfortunately, their astonishment turned somber when they saw the Divine Generals rushing toward Ye Guan.

Divine Spirits!

There were many Divine Generals and even a handful of Divine Kings!

An ancestor of the Mo Clan frowned. “You little brat! Did you summon us to die?!”

Mo Zong’s voice was trembling as he said, “A-A-Ancestors, our clan will get annihilated if we don’t help the Young Master!”

Mo Zong proceeded to explain everything that had happened to his ancestor. The Mo Clan’s ancestors frowned deeply upon realizing that Mo Zong had led the clan to follow Lu Tian in killing Ye Guan.

They supported the wrong side!

They were doomed if they didn’t do anything to atone for their mistake.

The Mo Clan’s ancestors glared at Mo Zong. You useless bastard, I really don’t know what to say. To think that you’d lead all of your ancestors to their graves!

The retired elders of the clan wouldn’t be able to rest in peace if their descendants were making poor decisions for the clan.

A Mo Clan ancestor cried out, “Hurry up and help our Young Master!”

He rushed toward a group of Divine Generals, and the other ancestors of the Mo Clan quickly followed suit.

They were afraid of those Divine Spirits, but they had no choice. If something untoward were to happen to the Young Master today, their clan would definitely be annihilated.

Meanwhile, the three divine demonic beast clans, as well as the Vicious Lion Clan, were stuck between a rock and a hard place. They thought that Lu Tian was the Young Master, but they were completely mistaken.

Ye Guan was the true Young Master!

They went completely numb from the shock. Since time immemorial, those unfortunate enough to choose the wrong side always met miserable fates. In other words, they believed that their clan would be annihilated.

They broke down upon finding out that Ye Guan was the true Young Master. The three clan leaders were especially terrified; the Clan Leader of the Vermillion Bird Clan even declared that he would wipe out the clan of those daring enough to harm Lu Tian.

He actually threatened to wipe out the Young Master’s clan…

The legs of the Vermillion Bird Clan Leader went weak.

They thought about killing Ye Guan when they saw the Divine Spirits, but it ultimately became nothing but a fleeting thought. What they had done while they were ignorant couldn’t be considered rebellion, but they already knew Ye Guan’s true identity.

If they were to attack Ye Guan despite that, it would be considered rebellion.

In addition, who were the ones trying to kill Ye Guan?

The Divine Spirits—the nemesis of the Guanxuan Universe!

Their ancestors died fighting against the Divine Spirits in the Xuzhen World.

Their ancestors would definitely roll over in their graves the moment they found out that they had decided to help the Divine Spirits kill the Young Master of the Guanxuan Universe.

In the end, the Clan Leader of the Vicious Lion Clan took the lead and shouted, “Summon our ancestors!”

He was aware that the only way he could protect his clan was to protect the Young Master. The other clan leaders decisively shouted, “Summon our ancestors!”

BOOM!

Four powerful auras descended. The combined power of the four auras was so strong that the earth itself split open the moment they landed.

Li Banzhi saw that and cried out, “Sky-Splitting Tiger, Vermilion Bird, Divine Xuanwu and Vicious Lion Ancestors! Stay next to the Young Master and protect him! Escort him to safety! Hurry up!”

The ancestors of the divine demonic beasts rushed toward Ye Guan, but three Divine Generals stood in their way.

Rumble!

The space above Ye Guan was reduced to ashes

The four divine demonic beasts' ancestors retreated, and their figures turned blurry.

Ye Guan’s eyes narrowed. He was about to attack, but Li Banzhi suddenly appeared next to him and grabbed his arm. She looked at him sternly and said, “I know you’re good at fighting, but you must not make any moves right now. There are elite cultivators hiding in the shadows, and I’m not sure if I can even hold them back. Do you understand?”

Ye Guan turned to look at Lu Tian. Lu Tian was abnormally calm as he kept his eyes on Ye Guan. Lu Tian noticed Ye Guan’s gaze, and he looked straight back at Ye Guan. Moments later, a cold and sinister smile appeared on his lips.

Li Banzhi turned to look at Lu Tian and said, “The war in the Xuzhen World has been raging for over thirty million years now, but our stance has always been passive.

”Your mother, Pavilion Master Qin, created the Sky-Connecting Pagoda. It can bring you to the True World. Anyway, it is unfortunate, but the Guanxuan Universe was never managed to come out on top since your father vanished.”

Li Banzhi stared deeply at Ye Guan and said, “You are our final hope. If you die here…”

“Aunt Zhi…” Ye Guan muttered, “I don’t think we can escape.”

Li Banzhi gripped Ye Guan’s arm tightly and said, “Trust me, your father isn’t here, yes, but I will ensure your safety.”

Ye Guan was silent.

He really wanted to make a move, but Lu Tian had been staring at him the whole time—no, the mysterious and powerful being inside Lu Tian had been staring at him!

He wasn’t aware of the mysterious and powerful being’s true prowess, but the mysterious voice inside the tiny pagoda had told him not to make a move.

Of course, Ye Guan was also aware that he couldn’t defeat the mysterious and powerful being inside Lu Tian.

Rumble!

A massive rift in space was torn open in the distant horizon, and out came a hundred Divine Generals.

The powerhouses of the Guanxuan Academy started losing hope at the sight.

The Divine Generals were simply too strong!

The Ancient Guanxuan Guards were the only ones capable of taking them on, as the elites of the Guanxuan Academy were still at the Xuzhen Battlefield.

“Pass my orders!” Li Banzhi’s voice pervaded the world as she said, “The Guanxuan Universe has entered a state of war emergency! Elite cultivators at the Ultimate Realm and above are hereby asked to drop whatever they are doing and return to the Main Guanxuan Academy.

“Please! The Guanxuan Academy and the Guanxuan Universe need your help!”

The members of the Shadow Department dispersed, and Li Banzhi’s orders soon spread to every corner of the Guanxuan Universe.

A procession of elite cultivators rushed toward the Main Guanxuan Academy from all corners of the Guanxuan Universe. It was about time for them to serve the throne!
