I Have A Sword

Chapter 263: I Will Fight the Strongest

Ye Guan noticed many powerful auras upon entering the Heavenly Garrison. The auras belonged to the elites that the True Universe had imprisoned here. Shockingly, quite a few auras were extremely powerful, hinting that they were at least Great Sovereigns.

Ye Guan closed his eyes. Great Sovereigns were rare throughout the All Worlds, but a Great Sovereign couldn’t be considered a supreme elite in the True Universe. Ye Guan reckoned that there were more powerful Divine Sovereigns in the True Universe.

The mysterious and powerful cultivators around him didn’t attack him. They were aware that the ongoing war between the True Universe and the Guanxuan Universe was between the members of their younger generation.

“Master Pagoda,” Ye Guan asked, “What do you think? Will the members of the True Universe’s older generation attack me?”

“Why are you even asking when you don’t even care?” Little Pagoda retorted.

Ye Guan laughed out loud. Did he care? If he cared, he wouldn’t have come here!

Little Pagoda added, “They shouldn’t interfere unless you break the rules first. For example, if someone from the Guanxuan Universe’s older generation tries to save you…”

Ye Guan slowly closed his eyes, “Don’t worry. The True Universe has its rules, and I will also obey them. I won’t ask for reinforcements as long as they don’t send their old fogeys toward me. The denizens of our Guanxuan Universe can afford to lose and die.”

Little Pagoda went silent. Call for reinforcements.

Now that he thought about it, Ye Guan had never really called for reinforcements. He had also never used the Path Sword unless he had no choice. However, he wasn’t a stickler. It would be foolish to be a stickler for rules against an incredibly powerful foe.

“After this…” Little Pagoda muttered, “You should impart some pointers to him.”

Little Pagoda was aware that he wasn’t qualified to give Ye Guan even a few pointers, so he decided to turn to someone more qualified. Of course, Little Pagoda would eventually ask Plain-Skirt Destiny to give Ye Guan a few pointers.

In the meantime, the mysterious voice’s pointers would serve Ye Guan well and for a long time.

“Sure,” said the mysterious voice. She had taken a fancy to Ye Guan.

“It’s been a long time since you started patching yourself up in my pagoda,” Little Pagoda said before asking, “Have you recovered yet?”

The mysterious voice said, “I’m almost done recovering.”

Little Pagoda went silent at that.

Meanwhile, Ye Guan closed his eyes and called out. “Qianqian!”

Ao Qianqian replied, “I’m here.”

Ye Guan chuckled sheepishly and said, “I feel really bad. You’ve been helping me, but I haven’t really done anything for you.”

Ao Qianqian said, “Is that really necessary between us?”

Ye Guan smiled. He was about to speak, but he abruptly turned around.

A young woman was rushing toward him.

Ba Wan! Ye Guan was shocked. How did she get in?

Ba Wan seemed agitated as she said, “Where’s my food? You said you’d cook me ten meals!”

Ye Guan froze and went silent.

You crossed the border between the Guanxuan Universe and the True Universe just to ask for a meal? Ye Guan had no idea what to say.

Of course, he was more curious as to how Ba Wan had somehow slipped into the dimensional barrier. If it hadn’t been for the Path Sword, he would have had no choice but to stay outside.

However, Ba Wan actually managed to cross the boundary by herself.

Ye Guan hesitated before asking, “Ba Wan, how did you come in?”

Ba Wan looked at Ye Guan, “I just ran inside!”

Ye Guan frowned. “You just ran inside?”

Ba Wan nodded.

Ye Guan went silent. Ba Wan wasn’t the type to lie unless she was starving.

“Can we eat first?” Ba Wan gulped before saying, “We’ll continue talking afterward.”

Ye Guan’s lips twitched. He had no choice; he could only cook for her.

Ba Wan’s eyes lit up, and she started drooling upon seeing Ye Guan cooking right in front of her. Soon, Ye Guan served her three pots of rice and a pot of dragon meat and beef.

Ba Wan placed her large bowl in front of her and started eating out of it.

Ye Guan’s curiosity was piqued by Ba Wan’s behavior, and he asked, “Senior, why does she have such a huge appetite?”

The mysterious voice responded, “She has a special Physique.”

Ye Guan frowned slightly, “A special Physique?”

The mysterious voice replied, “Yes.”

Ye Guan asked, “What’s the name of her Physique?”

The mysterious voice went silent.

Ye Guan shook his head and smiled. He went quiet as well. The mysterious voice didn’t want to tell him anything, so he decided that it would be more polite for him to refrain from asking any more questions.

Ba Wan started grinning in satisfaction upon making quick work of her meal.

Looking at Ba Wan, Ye Guan hesitated before saying, “Ba Wan, why don’t you go back? Once I’m done with my business here, I’ll go back and look for you.”

“No!” Ba Wan exclaimed. She stared intently at Ye Guan and said, “I won’t go back!”

Ye Guan was confused. “Why?”

Ba Wan was silent. Ye Guan was a living meal coupon, but how could she tell him that?

“Ba Wan,” Ye Guan said, “It’s going to be really dangerous.”

Ba Wan replied, “I can help you fight.”

Ye Guan was quiet. He truly didn’t want to drag Ba Wan into the chaos.

Ba Wan’s head drooped, and she asked softly, “Do you despise me because I eat too much? Will you let me go with you if I eat a bit less?”

Ye Guan’s face darkened. He stared deeply at Ba Wan and said, “I know that you want to help me, but this is really going to be dangerous.”

There was no way he would let her follow him.

Ba Wan was naive. She was a glutton, but she wasn’t stupid. In other words, she had an idea about what kind of danger Ye Guan was about to face. She briefly contemplated something before asking, “Why don’t you go back with me?”

Ye Guan shook his head. He was already here. How could he turn back without accomplishing anything?

Ba Wan’s gaze shone in a determined light. “I’ll follow you, then.”

Ye Guan hesitated before saying, “Ba Wan, you might really die if you go with me!”

“Is that so?” Ba Wan asked nonchalantly.

Ye Guan was speechless. What’s up with her?

Just then, the mysterious voice said, “I know that you do not want to drag her into the muddy waters of your affairs, but she’s special. She won’t get hurt.”

Special. Ye Guan stared deeply at Ba Wan, and he hesitated briefly before saying, “Let’s go.”

Ba Wan grinned. “Okay!”

Ye Guan smiled, “How many people can you fight at once?”

Ba Wan sounded serious as she said, “I can fight as many people as I want as long as I’m full!”

Ye Guan’s temples throbbed in pain. How many pots of rice and meat did he have to feed her for her to feel full?

Ye Guan looked ahead and found a dazzling white light. Ye Guan set his thoughts aside and focused. They would soon arrive at the periphery of the True Universe.

Ye Guan held Ba Wan’s hand as the dazzling white light engulfed them. When they came to their senses, they found themselves standing on a massive plain. They looked around and saw blue skies, white clouds, and grasslands.

However, thousands of Divine Spirits were standing a kilometer away from them. They were the powerful young talents of the True Universe.

Unfortunately, the surprise didn’t end there.

There were roughly a million Divine Spirits standing on a sea of clouds, but the auras they were emitting were significantly weaker than the Divine Spirits standing on the plains.

Ye Guan opened his hand and a Guanxuan Divine Armor in front of Ba Wan.

“Give it a drop of your blood.”

Ba Wan shook her head. “No, it’s going to hurt.”

Ye Guan stared deeply at Ba Wan.

Ba Wan blinked and exclaimed, “No!”

“Ten pots of rice!” Ye Guan declared firmly.

Ba Wan hesitated.

Ye Guan added, “An additional ten pots of meat dishes.”

Ba Wan immediately bit her finger. She allowed a drop of her blood to land on the Guanxuan Divine Armor. Ba Wan was taken aback when the Guanxuan Divine Armor immediately turned into a beam of light that disappeared into her.

Ye Guan gripped the Path Sword and started walking toward the Divine Spirits.

“Ba Wan, be careful.”

With that, Ye Guan turned into a streak of sword light. He decisively rushed toward his opponents. There would only be one outcome of this battle: his death or the death of each and every single enemy standing in front of him.

Sword in hand, Ye Guan’s eyes shone with a determined light

The Divine Spirits were furious. The Divine Spirit standing at the helm shouted, “Hold him down! We have to hold him down until Hao Xuan and the others are here.”

He took the lead and charged at Ye Guan. The Divine Spirits followed him closely.

“Kill him!”

The Divine Spirits’ furious roar pervaded the air.

Ye Guan flicked his wrist, and a beam of sword light flickered, sending more than a dozen heads flying into the air. However, the gap was quickly filled up by the other enraged Divine Spirits.

Meanwhile, Ba Wan started attacking. She was fierce, and each of her attacks was extremely powerful and domineering. Her fists seemed to contain a cataclysmic might capable of splitting the earth.

Ye Guan tore through the Divine Spirits with the Path Sword in hand, leaving a bloody trail in his wake. It seemed like he was cutting bamboo rather than Divine Spirits, as none of the Divine Spirits managed to withstand the Path Sword.

Heads would roll whenever he went, and dozens of corpses were already strewn across the plains.

They had perished in the True Universe, so their deaths were considered final.

Ba Wan seemed like she wasn’t willing to eat Ye Guan’s dust despite her gluttonous nature. She moved at breakneck speeds, and her powerful fists left those unfortunate to meet them either severely injured or dead.

Ye Guan and Ba Wan had already killed tens of thousands of Divine Spirits at the fifteen-minute mark. Hills of corpses had piled up behind them, and each hill was made up of over a thousand corpses.

Ye Guan and Ba Wan abruptly came to a halt. Ye Guan turned to look at the group of Divine Spirits in the distance, and the Divine Spirits were also staring at Ye Guan.

There was wariness and fear in their eyes.

Ye Guan had given them enough proof that his sword was terrifying.

Every single Divine Spirit that stood in his way couldn’t withstand the Path Sword.

Ye Guan’s clothes had lost all colors aside from crimson.

He was drenched in the blood of his enemies.

Ye Guan turned to look at Ba Wan; her clothes were also drenched in blood.

Ye Guan grinned. “Let’s continue!”

Ba Wan nodded and asked, “Can we eat once we’re done fighting?”

Ye Guan laughed. “Okay!”

He then turned to the Divine Spirits and laughed heartily. “Come here!”

Boom!

Ye Guan turned into a dazzling streak of light that rushed toward the Divine Spirits.

The dense spacetime of the True Universe was as weak and as flimsy as a piece of paper before Ye Guan.

Ba Wan followed closely behind him.

A Divine Spirit glared sinisterly at Ye Guan and said, “Isn’t it just death? There’s no reason for us to be afraid! Let’s kill him!”

He roared and ran like mad toward Ye Guan.

The Divine Spirits behind him also decisively took off.

The Guanxuan Universe and the True Universe had no cowards.

More than twenty thousand Divine Spirits ran like mad toward the oncoming streak of sword light, but they soon fell lifelessly to the ground one by one. The streak of sword light was like an unstoppable force, and it seemed to be piercing rotten wood!

Despite the terrifying sight, the Divine Spirits remained steadfast. In fact, many of them directly ignited their fleshly bodies and souls, resulting in a cacophony of noises as they threw themselves at Ye Guan and exploded one after another.

The Divine Spirits looking down at the battlefield from above felt as if their hearts were being repeatedly stabbed as the Divine Spirits below them fell lifelessly to the ground one by one.

They hated it—they hated that they were too weak to participate.

Ye Guan cut down dozens of Divine Spirits at once. They had killed so many Divine Spirits that the plains appeared to have become a swamp full of blood.

Ye Guan looked down at his trembling right hand.

Blood was dripping down the corners of his lips.

The Divine Spirits had ignited their fleshly body and souls. However, instead of using their power to fight Ye Guan, they had decisively hurled themselves at him and had chosen to self-destruct. The resulting explosions were so terrifying that Ye Guan couldn’t escape unscathed.

Ye Guan inwardly asked, “Qianqian, are you okay?”

Ao Qianqian’s reply came a bit late. “I’m okay!”

Ye Guan frowned slightly and said, “Don’t lie to me.”

Ao Qianqian smiled and replied, “I’m serious. I’m really okay.”

Ye Guan took a deep breath as he swept his gaze across the Divine Spirits in the distance. There were only about twenty thousand of them left, but quite a few of them had already ignited their fleshly bodies and souls.

Their gazes held no trepidation nor hesitation—only killing intent! They had already given up on their lives, so there was no reason for them to be afraid of the strong. In the end, they would just die; death was nothing in their eyes.

Their leaders had already perished; no one was giving them any orders, but they still seemed united.

Just then, a young man in black emerged from the group of Divine Spirits. His gaze was fixed on Ye Guan and Ba Wan. His expression turned fierce, and he laughed boisterously as he said, "I hope to reincarnate as Divine Spirit in my next life!"

Rumble!

A rumbling noise echoed from within him as he set fire to his fleshly body and soul.

His aura surged crazily, and the young man in black cackled. “Die!”

He transformed into a ball of fire and made a beeline for Ye Guan along with the other Divine Spirits. Roughly twenty thousand Divine Spirits mustered the full extent of their cultivation base while charging toward Ye Guan.

The pressure coming from so many cultivators made Ye Guan feel as if he were standing before a tsunami. The energy fluctuations alone shattered the dense spacetime of the True Universe.

The Divine Spirits had thrown all caution to the wind!

Ye Guan took a deep breath. He smiled sinisterly and roared, “Die!”

He stomped with his right foot.

Crackle!

Thunder boomed as Ye Guan rushed to meet the Divine Spirits halfway.

Ba Wan chased after him.

Boom!

The Divine Spirits at the forefront collapsed to the ground, and their blood haphazardly painted the skies.

Ye Guan carved a path in the middle of twenty thousand cultivators. He then conducted a slaughter that lasted for quite a while. Soon, he stopped and looked around to find that he had killed over five thousand Divine Spirits by himself.

Ye Guan's right hand trembled violently. He was getting tired. The Divine Spirits whom he had been fighting were the True Universe’s cream of the crop. To make matters worse, each and every single one of them had ignited their fleshly body and soul.

Ye Guan wiped the blood dripping down the corner of his mouth before looking at Ba Wan next to him.

Ye Guan saw blood dripping down her lips, and he asked softly, "Does it hurt?"

Ba Wan nodded. "Yes, it hurts!"

Ye Guan stared deeply at Ba Wan before inwardly saying, “Master Pagoda, you must not let her die with me.”

With that, Ye Guan turned to look at the Divine Spirits.

They were also staring at him.

The young man in black earlier had already perished.

A young Divine Spirit drenched in blood stepped out and glared at Ye Guan.

“Die!” he roared and stepped forward.

Rumble!

He caught himself in time and looked up. The rumbling had come overhead, and a voice soon boomed across the plains. “Everyone, retreat! I, Hao Xuan, will fight!”

Hao Xuan was the first placer of the True Martial List.

The Divine Spirits were thrilled upon realizing that Hao Xuan was emitting the energy fluctuations of a Divine Sovereign.

Rumble!

The spacetime behind Ye Guan distorted before it was quickly torn open. A cold voice echoed from the rift in space. “Keep killing those Divine Spirits; I’ll fight the strongest one among them for you!”

Boom!

The jet-black spacetime rift abruptly turned crimson.
