I Have a Sword

Have children? Zhou Fan's face turned red. She and Ye Guan had already established their relationship, but they had yet to take things further.

She couldn't take the initiative as a woman, could she?

Dao Jun chimed in, "Isn't that a bit too early?"

Ci Tian shook his head, "Not at all. And what do you know, old Daoist? You must have never felt a woman's touch, so you wouldn't understand."

Dao Jun turned to look at Ci Tian and asked, "How about you?"

Ci Tian put his hands together. "Amitabha... Let's change the topic."

Everyone was bewildered.

"I don't think it's a bit too early," Prime Minister Yuan said, "Young Master Ye is extraordinary, both in appearance and temperament. He must be highly attractive to women, and from what I can tell, his self-control isn't that strong..."

Prime Minister Yuan glanced at Zhou Fan and added, "Your Highness, you must seize the opportunity as soon as it presents itself. Of course, I know you don't want your relationship with Young Master Ye to be tainted by such considerations, but you must understand that Young Master Ye represents the Guanxuan Universe, and you represent the Great Zhou. There are things that you and Young Master Ye may not care about, but we care about them a lot."

Zhou Fan fell silent.

Ci Tian suddenly took out a bunch of bottles and jars, placing them in front of her.

Everyone was puzzled.

"Your Highness, you should give these to Young Master Ye, and he'll undoubtedly become uncontrollably passionate..."

Everyone was flabbergasted.

***

A man suddenly before the main hall of the Evil Dao's Tenth Hall.

The man was wearing a black robe embroidered with eerie ghastly creatures. His eye sockets were sunken as if he had overindulged.

A thin old man with piercing, knife-like eyes was standing behind him.

"Old Ten!" the man suddenly howled, "You suffered such a horrible death!"

The man's howl resembled a ghost's wailing and was full of sorrow.

After a while, the man sat down on the ground and took out a white handkerchief to wipe his face clean. Although it was unclear whether he had actually shed any tears or not.

The thin old man suddenly said, "Hall Master Gui, our people have arrived at the Great Zhou. As soon as you give the order, the Great Zhou will disappear from this world."

The man wiped his face again and said, "Old Zhang. There is no enmity between us, right?"

"Why do you say that? Hall Master?" asked the thin old man, startled.

The man stared deeply at the thin old man and asked, "Why do you want me dead, then?"

"I-I don't understand..." the thin old man stammered.

The man put away the handkerchief and calmly asked, "In your eyes, is the Great Zhou strong enough to kill my brother?"

"I investigated the Great Zhou. While they are not weak, none of their experts are strong enough to match the strength of the Tenth Hall Master except for their founding ancestor," replied the thin old man. He hesitated briefly before adding, "I think Ye Guan's backer is the Tenth Hall Master's murderer."

The man calmly asked, "Do you know how strong they are?"

The thin old man shook his head.

"How about my brother's strength?"

"I know," the thin old man said, nodding, "The Tenth Hall Master is unparalleled!"

"Yet he was killed without being able to attempt any escape," said the man.

The thin old man was stunned.

"Do you understand what I'm saying now?" asked the man.

The thin old man solemnly said, "Eighth Hall Master, I'm sure Ye Guan's backer is formidable, but we're not weak, either."

"I guess you're right," the man said, nodding, "Then go and bring me Ye Guan's head."

The thin old man froze.

The man stared deeply at the thin old man. "Go ahead."

The thin old man hurriedly said, "P-Pardon me... I wasn't thinking straight."

The man looked away and looked around. "The Ten Halls have seven Path Creation Realm experts. Old Ten's strength far surpasses the average Path Creation Realm cultivator, but they were all annihilated without being able to send out a request for reinforcement or even make any attempts to escape. In other words, their murderer's strength is far beyond them."

The thin old man said solemnly, "From what we know, there are only two top-tier experts in the True Universe—the True God and Clan Leader Jing. However, neither of them has come here..."

The man asked, "How can you be sure that there are no other top-tier experts except for those two?"

The thin old man was silent.

"Didn't Old Nine come here?" asked the man.

"He did." The thin old man nodded. "He visited the Great Zhou, but he didn't make a move for some reason."

The man sneered, "He wasn't close with Old Ten, so why would he make a move? Of course, I don't think that's the only reason."

The thin old man solemnly asked, "You mean... Old Nine has discovered something?"

"That's right."

The thin old man hesitated before asking, "Are we still going to seek revenge, then?"

"Of course!" the man exclaimed and stood up. "Old Ten was my sworn brother. We went through thick and thin together, so..."

The thin old man lowered his head slightly, saying nothing. He pretended like he could not hear the man.

"So how can I let his murderer go?" The man continued.

The thin old man nodded slightly, staying silent.

"Unfortunately, that young man's origin is extraordinary," the man added, "If we act rashly, we might suffer losses, so..."

The man gazed at the thin old man.

The thin old man's eyelid twitched. He hesitated briefly before gritting his teeth. "If the Hall Master says so, I will do anything without any hesitation."

Despite his words, he had already decided that if the Eighth Hall Master sent him alone to confront Ye Guan, he'd flee without a second thought.

There were nine Hall Masters, but he only had one life.

Ye Guan's backer could kill the Tenth Hall Master with ease, so he'd be like a chicken to them—an easy picking.

The man calmly said, "Don't worry, I won't send you to your death."

The thin old man breathed a sigh of relief.

"If we want to find out the true strength of Ye Guan's backer, then there's a surefire way to do so," the man said. He then smiled before continuing, "Issue a bounty under the name of the Evil Dao Alliance. Anyone who kills Ye Guan will be rewarded with a Universe Vein and… a hundred Eternal Crystals."

Eternal Crystals!

The thin old man was stunned, and a tremor ran across him as he stammered "A-a-a hundred Eternal Crystals, Hall Master?! Do you… have that many Eternal Crystals?"

"Of course not," said the man.

The thin old man was speechless.

"However, it is an irresistible temptation. We can take advantage of the others' greed to gauge the strength of Ye Guan and his backers."

The thin old man hesitated before asking, "What if someone ends up killing Ye Guan..."

"Then, we'll owe them a favor."

The thin old man was silent.

The man waved his hand. "Go."

The thin old man nodded and left.

Ye Guan? The man chuckled. Once the bounty was issued, a myriad of top experts across the vast expanse would go mad. Universe Veins were less useful for Path Creation Realm experts, but Eternal Crystals were a different story.

Eternal Crystals contained eternal power and were capable of enhancing one's bloodline, soul, and lifespan. It was also capable of healing even Path Creation Realm experts.

However, they existed only in Tier Five civilizations. Eternal Crystals were extremely useful, and even just ten of them were enough to make Path Creation Realm experts fight fiercely over them.

A hundred would drive even the most perverse beings in the Ascension World to madness.

The man looked at the empty hall and was suddenly struck by sorrow.

"Old Ten! Rest in peace! I will take care of your wife!" the man wailed.

***

Meanwhile, Ye Guan had spent the last twenty years studying the Dao of Time with Yi Nian.

Under Yi Nian's guidance, his understanding of the Dao of Time improved by leaps and bounds.

The Dao of Time was also more fascinating than he had expected.

One day, Ye Guan found himself on a mountain peak. He sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes. As soon as he did, the world fell silent.

All of a sudden, his eyes snapped open, and he slashed out with his sword.

The intense movement generated no sound for some reason. The next moment, however, a gust of wind blew across the mountains up ahead, and the mountains inexplicably crumbled to dust, which disappeared into the wind.

A sword to transform a world! Ye Guan's lips curled up into a smile. A sword was enough for Ye Guan to sever a thousand years of lifespan.

Moreover, he wasn't using the Qingxuan Sword. He reckoned that with the Qingxuan Sword in hand, he'd be able to sever at least ten thousand years.

Even top Path Creation Realm experts couldn't withstand such a devastating strike.

Additionally, Phantom Edge had greatly increased in power and had become even more inscrutable.

Ye Guan was convinced that he could kill anyone below the Path Creation Realm with just one strike using the Qingxuan Sword.

As for Path Creation Realm experts, he wasn't actually that confident. Those without any shortcomings were still terrifying, after all.

However, he no longer feared Path Creation Realm experts unless they were top-tier ones like Ji Xiaojian.

Unfortunately, he needed a real battle to test that!

Ye Guan closed his eyes. The Evil Dao Alliance!

Ye Guan left the tiny pagoda and went to find Zhou Fan.

Today, Zhou Fan was wearing a light yellow robe, looking both stunning and valiant. A book was in her hand, and it was titled—Seduced in the Sea of Desires.

A few bottles and jars were next to the memorials on the desk.

Zhou Fan put the book aside and covered it with the memorials.

"You're here," Zhou Fan said with a smile.

Ye Guan nodded and started walking toward her.

And that was when Zhou Fan asked, "Do you want to do something intimate?"
