I Have A Sword

Chapter 122: Kill Ye Xuan and Qin Guan!

Ye Guan sat cross-legged at the bow of the star ship with his hands on his knees. He was absorbing a vast amount of spiritual energy from the gold spiritual crystals in his hands to convert into profound energy.

His body couldn’t contain a lot of profound energy because of his low cultivation base, which meant that he could only perform a few sword moves before running out of profound energy.

Fortunately, he was cultivating an Immortal-rank cultivation method that Master Pagoda had imparted to him.

Otherwise, the disparity between his sword cultivation realm and his cultivation base as a cultivator meant that he could only perform one sword move with a mediocre cultivation method.

Therefore, Ye Guan chose to focus on improving his cultivation base, but he wasn’t in a rush because he was well aware that haste would only make waste.

He started researching and was planning on making a natural breakthrough similar to his breakthrough during a battle.

“Little Guan, someone’s here,” said Ji Xuan.

Ye Guan opened his eyes and got up. A black-robed man stood about a hundred meters away from the star ship. He was holding a black spear in his right hand while his left hand was behind him, and he was giving off a domineering aura.

A spearman!

Ye Guan wordlessly stared at the man. He didn’t have to talk to a dead man walking.

The spearman stepped forward, and a terrifying spear intent converged at his spearhead. A thirty-meter-long spear condensed, and it flew toward Ye Guan.

Boom!

The thirty-meter-long spear was incomparably terrifying, and it shattered every inch of space in its way.

Ye Guan remained calm. He was about to make his move, but a terrifying aura suddenly swept toward him from the side.

Ye Guan frowned and turned.

Boom!

A powerful energy collided with the thirty-meter-long spear and destroyed it.

The spearman narrowed his eyes. He turned and saw a white-robed woman approaching them.

Ye Guan’s frown deepened upon seeing the white-robed woman. Who is she?

The spearman glared at the white-robed woman and demanded, “Who are you?!”

The white-robed woman stared at the man and said, “Lin Ran, you’re a rare talent of the Lushan Blessed Land, why did you decide to jump into these muddy waters?”

Lin Ran calmly replied, “I’ve heard a lot of rumors about the Zhongtu Divine Continent’s Sword Sovereign, so I came here to check him out myself.”

“You can leave now,” said the white-robed woman.

“So I have to leave just because you said so?” Lin Ran asked sarcastically.

The white-robed woman abruptly vanished.

Lin Ran’s pupils constricted, and he immediately thrust forward.

Boom!

A majestic spear intent poured out from the spearhead, which made his spear as intimidating as a dragon and as ferocious as a tsunami.

The white-robed woman reappeared and destroyed Lin Ran’s spear intent with a punch.

Lin Ran narrowed his eyes, and he was about to attack once more, but the white-robed woman had already appeared right in front of him. The white-robed woman lifted Lin Ran by the throat.

“Who are you?!” Lin Ran asked, horrified.

The white-robed woman glared at him and said, “I’ll let you go, but if you’re still here after three seconds, I’ll bury you.”

With that, she let go of Lin Ran and approached Ye Guan.

Lin Ran stared at the white-robed woman in disbelief. However, he ignored the white-robed woman’s words and shouted, “Just who are you?!”

The white-robed woman stopped in her tracks and sighed.

“Why do you ask such stupid questions?” she said and whipped around before sending a punch toward Lin Ran.

Boom!

Lin Ran was instantly reduced to ashes.

The white-robed woman wordlessly made her way to Ye Guan once more.

Ji Xuan looked nervous. She’s so strong!

Ye Guan was a bit confused. She looked at her and shook his head before saying to himself. Why did she not take Lin Ran’s storage ring? She wasted her spoils.

Ji Xuan didn’t dare to move. The white-robed woman was now standing in front of Ye Guan and Ji Xuan.

The white-robed woman chuckled and said, “Young Lord Ye, let me introduce myself. My name is Ao Qianqian!”

Ao? Ye Guan asked, “Are you from the Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan?”

“Yes!”

Ye Guan chuckled and asked, “What tricks are you trying to pull this time?”

Ao Qianqian pondered over something before saying, “Young Lord Ye, I’ve already investigated the matter between you and the True Dragon Clan.

”The True Dragon Clan broke the rules of the martial contest and colluded with the An Clan to target you, and they had even attempted to kill you many times. The evil deed that they had committed is so outrageous, and they’re definitely at fault.”

Ao Qianqian sighed and added, “My Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan rashly took action against you without investigating the matter, so we made a mistake as well.”

Ye Guan wordlessly stared at Ao Qianqian. He was wary of her because the great clans were filled with cunning people.

Ao Qianqian’s expression was serious as she said, “Young Lord Ye, I’ve come here to apologize to you on behalf of the Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan.”

She bowed deeply toward him and added, “Young Lord Ye, I apologize for the trouble that my Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan has caused you.”

Ye Guan was stunned speechless.

An apology? How come the Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan is now apologizing to me, even though they seemed like they couldn’t breathe the same air as me? Is she really not here to kill me and steal my storage ring?

Ye Guan pondered briefly before saying, “Lady Qianqian, I have no powerful backer. Did you come here to investigate me before making a decision? I’m afraid you’ll come back and beat me up later after changing your mind. Won’t that be an embarrassing outcome for the both of us?”

Ao Qianqian chuckled and explained, “Surely, you jest, Young Lord Ye. I didn’t come here to investigate your backer. I’m here because apologizing to you is the right thing to do. My clan has made a mistake, and that is why I’m here.”

She opened her palm, and a storage ring flew toward Ye Guan.

“Young Lord Ye, there are ten million gold spiritual crystals in this storage ring. It is my token of apology. Please accept it.”

Ye Guan didn’t say anything, but he was screaming inwardly. That’s a lot of gold spiritual crystals!

However, he didn’t accept it readily. He stared at Ao Qianqian and said, “The Main Guanxuan Academy has sent out an order to arrest me along with a bounty on my head. I heard that the Ancient Heavenly Dragon—”

“No, we were not involved.” Ao Qianqian interrupted. “It was the An Clan.”

Ye Guan silently stared at her.

Ao Qianqian sounded serious as she added, “Young Lord Ye, let me be honest with you. Your situation is more complicated than you think. The aristocratic families and the great clans… they think of you as an enemy because Representative Ye had decided to help you.

“They want to kill you not for our sake but to intimidate the academic faction of the Main Guanxuan Academy.”

Ye Guan suddenly asked, “Is Lady Ye Guanzhi doing fine?”

Ao Qianqian went silent.

Ye Guan frowned and asked, “What happened?”

Ao Qianqian shook her head and said, “Representative Ye has been stripped of her position and authority to mobilize the Guanxuan Guards. She’s also under house arrest in the South Garden.”

“Why?” Ye Guan asked.

“She attempted to impeach the representatives of the aristocratic families and great clans within the Committee upon hearing that they’ve decided to place an arrest warrant on your head.

“In the end, her attempt failed, and the Committee finally had the justification to suppress her even more.”

Ye Guan froze. He didn’t expect that someone whom he had only met twice would provoke those powerful figures and even throw away her own future for him!

Ye Guan’s heart was inundated with complicated emotions.

“Young Lord Ye, you have a tough road ahead of you. Take care!” Ao Qianqian said.

“The average cultivator cannot defeat you, but the monstrous talents of powerful places such as the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, Lingxu Blessed Land, and Time Paradise are extremely powerful.

“Those bastards on the Divine Martial List are ridiculously strong, and you also have to be wary of some of the Mercenary Union’s top mercenary groups…” Ao Qianqian trailed off. She shook her head and chuckled before continuing. “Yes, there are many strong people out there.”

Ye Guan nodded slightly and smiled before saying, “Lady Qianqian, can you really speak on behalf of the Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan?”

“Don’t worry, Young Lord Ye, I can definitely represent the Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan.” Ao Qianqian said with a smile. After a few moments of silence, she cupped her fists and said, “I’m off, then, Young Lord Ye. I hope to see you again someday.”

With that, she turned around and disappeared.

Ye Guan fell into deep contemplation.

Ji Xuan smiled and asked, “Are you wondering why she did all that?”

Ye Guan nodded.

Ji Xuan laughed and explained, “Well, the answer’s simple. She’s probably thinking that your backers are people the Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan cannot afford to provoke, so she decided to resolve the issue and get rid of the bad karma between you and the Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan.”

Ye Guan shook his head.

“It makes sense that she reached that conclusion. I mean, think about it, you’re already a Sword Sovereign at such a young age, so your backers are definitely extraordinary figures.

”I’m sure the woman in a blood-red skirt was a peerless powerhouse from millions of years ago. Anyway, yeah, you’re definitely not just an ordinary person,” said Ji Xuan.

Ye Guan wordlessly shook his head.

“Master Pagoda and my aunt are very strong, but…” Ye Guan trailed off. He sighed before saying, “I am actually an illegitimate child.”

Ji Xuan froze and went silent.

Ye Guan shook his head and sighed once more before going silent as well.

Little Pagoda was definitely powerful, but he was currently injured. In other words, Little Pagoda wasn’t a peerless powerhouse. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have gotten injured.

Furthermore, Little Pagoda was pretentious, so he couldn’t possibly be a peerless powerhouse. It also seemed that Little Pagoda was worried about something because he kept on insisting on staying humble and low-key.

His plain-skirt aunt was extremely powerful, but even she didn’t dare to face the Sword Master in battle. Unfortunately, Ye Guan had made an enemy out of the entire Guanxuan Academy!

Even if Ye Guan somehow managed to defeat everyone else, his efforts would immediately go down the drain if the Sword Master decided to stand on the Guanxuan Academy’s side. After all, no one could really stop the Sword Master.

Ye Guan knew that it could happen because the Sword Master was close to the An Clan.

Ye Guan was also worried about the Immortal Treasures Pavilion. In fact, the Immortal Treasures Pavilion was already cooperating with the Guanxuan Academy by blacklisting him.

Ye Guan didn’t really find it strange because Qin Guan, the founder of the Immortal Treasures Pavilion, and the Sword Master were wife and husband. In other words, becoming an enemy of the Sword Master also meant becoming Qin Guan’s enemy!

What was he supposed to do if the Sword Master and Qin Guan decided to kill him?

Ye Guan’s temple throbbed at the thought of it alone.

The pressure was starting to feel too heavy.

After a while, Ye Guan clenched his fists. His gaze turned cold as he said, “Master Pagoda, I don’t like this feeling. I feel like my destiny isn’t under my control. I want to become stronger and wrestle control over my destiny!”

Little Pagoda chuckled and said, “I support you!”

Ye Guan nodded and declared, “I’ll work hard! I’ll work hard to become even stronger than the Sword Master. If the Guanxuan Academy still hasn’t stopped bullying me by then, I’ll annihilate the Guanxuan Academy and kill the Sword Master! If the Immortal Treasures Pavilion does the same, I will kill its founder, Qin Guan!

”I’m the master of my own destiny!”

Little Pagoda: ???

Ye Guan nodded once more and said, “It feels really great to have your support, Master Pagoda.

”I’m not really confident about achieving all those without your support, so you have to help me take them down if they insist on bullying me in the future!”

Little Pagoda didn’t know what to say.

“You’re doomed!” the mysterious voice cried out, “You’re doomed, Little Pagoda! You’re screwed!”
