I Have A Sword

Chapter 380: Don't Stop Calling For Help

Everyone on the pedestrian bridge stared at the plain-skirt lady, and they were stunned the moment they clapped their eyes on her. What a beautiful lady! The plain skirt she was wearing made her exude a pure and elegant charm.

Her hair fell down her shoulders like a waterfall, and her delicate fingers lightly tapped a watermelon.

The ancient-style clothes worn by the woman and man did not surprise the people on the pedestrian bridge, as cosplay had become commonplace in this day and age.

The watermelon vendor was momentarily stunned upon seeing the lady.

The lady suddenly picked up a watermelon. She brought the watermelon to her ear and tapped it lightly, seemingly listening for something. Soon, she smiled lightly and said, "This one's great."

The white-robed man next to her smiled and took out a coin.

"Keep the change," he said before walking away with the plain-skirt lady.

The watermelon vendor hurriedly put the money away, but his gaze remained transfixed on the plain-skirt lady in the distance. He sighed and muttered, "I've never seen such a beautiful woman before. She was as beautiful as a fairy..."

Everyone on the pedestrian bridge couldn't help but follow the plain-skirt lady with their gazes. The plain-skirt lady and the white-robed man didn't seem like they belonged to this world.

The two were like an immortal couple who had decided to go down to the mortal realm to have some fun. Their looks and demeanor made everyone in the crowd feel ashamed of their own inadequacy.

The plain-skirt lady suddenly blew a breath, and the watermelon in her right hand instantly split into several vivid red slices.

The plain-skirt lady picked up a slice and handed it to the white-robed man.

"Brother, have a taste," she said with a smile.

The white-robed man smiled and took a bite.

The watermelon was incredibly luscious.

The plain-skirt lady casually lifted her sleeve to wipe away the stain on the corner of the white-robed man's mouth. She took another bite of the watermelon and grinned at its sweetness.

"It's really good!" she exclaimed.

The white-robed man chuckled. Together, they strolled leisurely into the distance while talking about a variety of topics.

The two of them frowned at the same time and looked up. Something had caught their attention, and the gentleness on the white-robed man's expression had vanished—replaced by an icy coldness.

The plain-skirt lady said, "Brother, I'll be right back."

The white-robed man said, "We're going to confront them together!"

The plain-skirt lady nodded. "All right!"

Without further ado, the two vanished.

Meanwhile, Jingchen and his group were about to make their way toward the blue planet before them when a white-robed man along with a lady wearing a plain skirt appeared before them.

Jingchen and his group were stunned. Why did their targets seek them out?

The Battle Sovereign frowned as a sense of unease gripped his heart, but he wasn't alone. The expressions of everyone else changed to that of solemness as they cast wary gazes on the two figures before them.

Zhan Shi transmitted, "Brother Jingchen, be careful."

He could feel something amiss. The appearance of the man and the woman meant that the two had spotted them earlier but had chosen to confront them rather than run. Why?

There was only one plausible explanation.

They were not afraid of them!

Zhan Shi's heart was gripped by an inexplicable unease.

Jingchen frowned. Were they about to get ambushed?

Jingchen looked around, but no other powerful auras were in the area.

There wasn't anyone else aside from the white-robed man and the lady wearing a plain skirt.

Jingchen turned to the plain-skirt lady and asked, "Are you Ye Guan's aunt?"

The plain-skirt lady took a bite of her watermelon and calmly replied, "What can I do for you?"

Clearly, she was in a good mood today.

"Do what for us?" Jingchen burst into laughter. "Do you even know who we are?"

The white-robed man chuckled and asked, "Who might you be?"

"And who are you?" Jingchen asked the white-robed man.

The white-robed man smiled and replied, "I'm Ye Guan's father."

Ye Guan's father? Jingchen frowned, but he quickly composed himself and said, "Great! Since you're here, then we might as well settle everything at once!"

The plain-skirt lady took another bite of the watermelon slice in her hand.

She looked down at Jingchen and jeered, "Oooh, I'm so scared!"

"What's up with that attitude?" Jingchen was annoyed. "Are you looking down on my Eternal Civilization?"

Swoosh!

The Battle Sovereign suddenly appeared next to Jingchen.

"Something's wrong," he said.

Jingchen hesitated. He examined the two figures in the distance and saw that they were munching on watermelon slices while staring calmly at Jingchen.

How come they were so calm when Jingchen's group was made out of ten Great Destiny Sovereigns, over a hundred Great Time Sovereigns, and hundreds of Ordinary Great Sovereigns?

It was really strange how it seemed like they weren't afraid of them.

Jingchen's expression soured. A retreat was impossible. They had gone beyond the point of no return, so if they were to retreat without achieving results, they'd become a laughingstock.

At the very least, they had to exchange a few moves with their target before leaving.

Jingchen transmitted to everyone. "Let's exchange a few moves with them first before anything else. If they're too strong, we can then retreat. This way, we'll have an excuse for retreating."

Everyone inwardly agreed. Jingchen was right. They'd become a laughingstock if they were to retreat without even exchanging a few moves against their targets. In the worst-case scenario, such a retreat could become a heart demon.

Jingchen looked at the plain-skirt lady and smiled, "I heard you're pretty strong. Do you mind if we take advantage of our numbers?"

The plain-skirt lady replied, "I don't mind it at all."

"How confident, " Jingchen sneered, "Attack!"

The Battle Sovereign led the charge against the plain-skirt lady.

The Battle Sovereign's gaze was extremely solemn as he stared at the plain-skirt lady. He dared not underestimate her. His instinct had been screaming at him to run the moment he saw her, and whenever his instincts screamed at him, it usually meant that he was standing before a formidable foe.

With that in mind, the Battle Sovereign went all-out. A domineering Battle Intent surged out of him and inundated everyone. The supreme elites of the Eterna Civilization also went all-out.

Zhan Shi even pulled out several unranked divine items, aiming for a cataclysmic strike.

The plain-skirt lady gripped the watermelon rind in her hand and slashed out.

Swish!

The watermelon rind flew out, drawing a beautiful arc.

Shwing!

Several thousand heads flew into the air, and their blood instantly melted in the ruthless conditions of the Milky Way Star Field. Every single supreme elite was killed aside from Jingchen.

Jingchen felt as though the world was crumbling around him.

Everyone's... dead? Even the Battle Sovereign?

Jingchen started trembling, consumed by extreme fear.

The plain-skirt lady took out a slice of watermelon and started munching on the watermelon slice. Her gaze eventually landed on Jingchen.

"Go ahead and call for help. Don't stop calling for help," she said.

Jingchen's eyes were unwittingly transfixed on the leisurely plain-skirt lady in front of him. His face began to fill with disbelief as he stammered, "Y-y-you...!"

Jingchen lost his mind due to the incredulity of the scene he had just witnessed. The plain-skirt lady had just killed thousands of Great Sovereigns in the blink of an eye—not even the Battle Sovereign survived!

The Battle Sovereign was one of the four strongest Great Destiny Sovereigns of the Eternal Civilization, but he was killed in just one sword move. His Battle Intent was torn apart as if it were a piece of paper, and his belief crumbled in one sword move!

A tremor ran through Jingchen as he realized something.

He turned to look somewhere and roared, "Cirou! Cirouuu!"

He had finally understood the reason behind the True Universe's generosity. It was all Cirou's scheme. Jingchen had fallen for Cirou's scheme, and it resulted in the catastrophic loss of the Eternal Civilization's supreme elites!

However, Jingchen was baffled. Weren't the True Universe and the Guanxuan Universe archenemies? How come Cirou had schemed against them when the enemy of one's enemy was one's friend?

He couldn't understand it at all!

Just then, the plain-skirt lady asked, "Are you not going to ask for help?"

Jingchen snapped out of it, and his voice was trembling as he said, "Just you wait! I'll go back and ask for help!"

Jingchen turned around to leave, but he abruptly came to a halt. A dull noise echoed as a sword light pierced his forehead.

"What a waste of time," the plain-skirt lady remarked with a shake of her head. She turned around to leave, but the white-robed man stopped her.

"Wait!" said the white-robed man.

The plain-skirt lady stared at the white-robed man.

"The interruptions are getting annoying," the white-robed man remarked. He waved his sleeve, and a mysterious force enveloped the blue planet below them. The man smiled and explained, "Now there's a barrier around it!"

With that, he grabbed the plain-skirt lady’s hand and disappeared.

Meanwhile, the immobilized Jingchen was forced to stare at where the white-robed man and the plain-skirt lady had disappeared. He couldn't move at all, and when the sword light sticking out of his forehead dissipated, his fleshly body started to dissipate into nothingness.

He truly wanted to tell the Eternal Sovereign about the ridiculous scene he had witnessed, but...

He's too far! Jingchen's eyelids began to feel heavy. Amidst his darkening vision, he suddenly recalled Ye Guan's words about how one ought to investigate their target's background first before making a move.

They had laughed at Ye Guan's words at the time and thought of him as a clown, but it turned out that they were the real clowns all this while!

Jingchen sighed; his eyes were filled with the desire to live. He was unwilling to die just like this. It hadn't been that long since he had regained his freedom after millions of years, but to think that he would meet his end so soon.

He had been waiting for millions of years to regain his freedom but to think that he would soon greet death after finally being freed from the Great Daoist Brush Master's seal.

Jingchen sighed once more, and his soul finally vanished. The thousands of bloody heads behind him slowly descended toward the void down below, and they would meet the same fate as Jingchen.

...

Ye Guan had long lost his consciousness inside the array, but he was unconsciously absorbing every single particle of the power of the True God inside the array. His aura surged crazily until he started emitting fluctuations that were way beyond the Time Immortal Realm.

In addition, his fleshly body was giving off the same golden light as the power of the True God. The power of the True God was tempering his fleshly body.

Cirou collapsed to the ground. She was strong, but the power of the True God was ruthless, tormenting both her fleshly body and soul. She curled up on the ground and trembled incessantly like an aspen tree.

The indescribable pain was so excruciating that it permeated the bones!

Ye Guan ravenously devoured the power of the True God, while Cirou had chosen to direct all the tumultuous backlash from the power of the True God to herself, sparing Ye Guan from the excruciating pain.
