I Have A Sword

Chapter 362: I Like You!

The Adjudication Sword Master turned around to leave, but a spacetime rift manifested in front of her, and Ye Guan walked out of it.

The Adjudication Sword Master stopped walking and stared at Ye Guan silently as he walked up to her.

Ye Guan sounded excited as he exclaimed, "Cijing!"

Cijing!

The Adjudication Sword was astonished. Ye Guan had always addressed her formally as Lady Adjudication Sword Master, so she couldn't help but be astonished that he had addressed her so casually.

Ye Guan laughed and exclaimed once again, "Cijing!"

"What?" As always, Cijing's reply was as cold as a thousand-year-old icy cavern. However, Ye Guan had already gotten used to her cold replies.

"Did you come here to help me?" asked Ye Guan.

Cijing's expression was indifferent as she said, "As if."

Ye Guan grinned but stayed silent.

Cijing's eyebrows raised, and she asked, "Why are you smiling?"

"I'm just happy to see you here," Ye Guan replied.

Cijing looked at him. After a while, she looked away and shook her head. She turned around to leave, but Ye Guan pulled her arm. She turned and glared at him.

"What are you pulling me back for?" she asked.

Ye Guan sounded serious as he said, "Cijing, can we talk?"

"What is there for us to talk about?" asked Cijing while glaring at him.

Ye Guan had many things to say, but he didn't know how to start.

"I'm from the True Universe, and you're from Guanxuan Universe. The only thing we can talk about is how to destroy the other," said Cijing.

"Then why did you save me over and over again?" asked Ye Guan.

Cijing said fiercely, "Because I want to end you myself!"

"That's a lie." Ye Guan shook his head and retorted, "Otherwise, I would have died long ago."

Cijing shook her head and didn't say anything in response. She also had many things she wanted to say, but she wasn't sure how to start.

Ye Guan was from the Guanxuan Universe, and she was supposed to kill him, but for some reason, she didn't want to see him die. Her emotions were like a tangled web; she was conflicted and found it agonizing.

The Adjudication Sword Master then said, "I'm leaving."

She turned around to leave, but Ye Guan didn't let go of her arm.

Ye Guan stared intently at her ice-cold visage and gently brushed her cheek with his right hand.

She didn't resist his touch, but she asked, "Do you know what you're doing?"

Ye Guan grinned. "Do you know what I felt when you were about to leave just now?"

"So what?" The Adjudication Sword Master glared coldly at Cirou. "It's none of your business!"

Cirou smirked, saying nothing.

Ye Guan started walking toward the Adjudication Sword Master. As he approached, The Adjudication Sword Master drew her sword and pointed it at him before stammering, "Y-y-you... don't come any closer! I'm going to stab you if you do!"

Ye Guan stood his ground and called her bluff.

The Adjudication Sword Master's cheeks flushed red.

Ye Guan smiled softly and said, "I didn't mean to be disrespectful. I was just so happy to see you that I was struck by this overwhelming urge to kiss you. I don't know what happened to me. Perhaps it's because you're so beautiful—no, I think it's because I really like you..."

Cirou's eyes widened in disbelief at Ye Guan's sudden confession. What? Since when and how did this scoundrel become a smooth talker?

The Adjudication Sword Master's fierce gaze softened upon hearing Ye Guan's words. She looked at the slightly nervous and uneasy Ye Guan and relented. She lowered her sword and muttered, "Just don't be so disrespectful next time."

Cirou’s expression froze, and she stared wide-eyed at the Adjudication Sword Master.

Is she the same Cijing that I know? Is she really that Cijing? Oh, no! Cirou realized that the clueless girl had truly fallen for Ye Guan. Otherwise, she would have gotten mad upon getting kissed from out of nowhere. However, the opposite had just happened. This is a complete disaster!

No! Cirou was determined not to let Cijing fall deeper in love with him! Having made up her mind, Cirou hurriedly said, "Cijing, this scoundrel isn't what you think he is. He's really despicable. He's just playing with your feelings. I've followed him for so long, and I know his personality well. He has many flaws, really..."

The Adjudication Sword Master glanced at Cirou and asked, "What are those flaws?"

Cirou wanted to say something, but she found herself at a loss for words.

Flaws? What are Ye Guan's flaws?

She couldn't come up with anything on the spot. She had been following Ye Guan for a long time, so she knew that he had a great personality. He was also humble despite his powerful background, and he was also quite a hard worker. He also stood out as a positive influence among his peers, so he was flawless in Cirou's eyes.

Still, Cirou knew that she had to nitpick here, so she said, "He's quite fickle in relationships, and he's attracted to many women. He fits Big Sister's description of golden retriever men, and he can't even take care of his women."

The Adjudication Sword Master turned to look at Ye Guan.

"Can't take care of my women? Are you talking about Ba Wan?" Ye Guan asked.

Ba Wan? Cirou froze upon realizing that she had messed up.

The Adjudication Sword Master frowned.

"Lady Cirou, others liking me is their business, and I can't stop them from liking me. However, I have to admit that I genuinely like Ba Wan, just as I like Cijing... Of course, I had no idea at the time that I was just dancing on your palm."

Ye Guan shook his head with a smile and said, "Lady Cirou, you've created a trap targeting my emotions and good intentions. It's a trap I couldn't have avoided, so you really are a genius. I concede. I can't outsmart you."

The Adjudication Sword Master glared coldly at Cirou and said, "How despicable."

Cirou remained silent. She wanted to say something more, but Ye Guan suddenly walked up to her. Cirou looked at him silently

Ye Guan spoke earnestly, "Lady Cirou, you've been with me from the start of my journey. You've helped me a lot, and you've even saved me a few times. I've always respected you, and I've always thought of you as my tutor. Even now, I've never said anything bad about you to others..."

"So..." Ye Guan shook his head slightly and asked, "Must you speak ill of me to Cijing?"

Cirou stared quietly at Ye Guan.

Ye Guan continued, "I know you're helping your big sister, and that's the reason behind your scheme against me. However, Lady Cirou, I'm sure you know just what kind of a person I am.

"You've treated me well, so if you were in trouble and needed my help, you could have just called my name. Do you really think that I would have stood by and allowed you to face such adversity by yourself?

"I understand that the Universe Tribulation is extremely dangerous, and it concerns the fate of the vast expanse, but you should have just talked to me about it. I respected you a lot, and I would have asked my relatives to help you."

Ye Guan shook his head once again; his gaze seemed melancholic as he said, "All you needed to do was say one word, and I, Ye Guan, would have gone all out to help you because I truly respected you, and... I considered you as family."

Cirou clenched her fists tightly, and her pupils quivered as she stared at Ye Guan. She truly didn't expect that she had such a high position in Ye Guan's heart. No, she hadn't even considered it.
