I Have A Sword

Chapter 128: A Tradition of the Yang Family

Chapter 128: A Tradition of the Yang Family

Ye Guan and Gu Hao moved so fast that the lurkers in the shadows squinted to track them down.

Clang!

The Path Sword shattered the saber in Gu Hao’s hand.

There was a burst of dazzling light as the Path Sword pierced Gu Hao’s forehead.

Gu Hao froze in mid-air, and Ye Guan reappeared behind him. By the time he reappeared, he was already holding a sword made out of sword energy.

He had moved as fast as lightning, and his sleight of hand was so smooth that most of the onlookers didn’t notice Ye Guan changing his sword.

However, there was a low chance that any of the lurkers in the shadows would recognize the Path Sword, even if Ye Guan hadn’t switched it out. After all, only a few people managed to live to see another day upon witnessing the Path Sword’s might for themselves, and most of them had already died long ago at this point.

The onlookers were dumbfounded by the result. How did he do it?

The unrivaled spearman, Jiang Fan, stared at Ye Guan with a somber look.

Ye Guan approached Gu Hao. Surprisingly, he was still alive.

Gu Hao’s voice was trembling as he stammered, “Y-y-you used a different sword!”

Ye Guan wordlessly collected Gu Hao’s storage ring.

He inspected it and saw more than ten million gold spiritual crystals and twenty thousand immortal spiritual crystals. There was also a collection of spiritual pills, and some of them were Immortal-grade spiritual pills.

However, none of them could beat the Supreme Divine-grade armor that Ye Guan saw in the storage ring.

“You’re so rich!” exclaimed Ye Guan in awe.

Gu Hao glared at Ye Guan and threatened. “Killing me means waging war on the Gu Clan!”

Ye Guan shook his head and said, “Dumbass, your clan won’t let me go even if I were to let you go.”

Swoosh!

Ye Guan swung his sword decisively, chopping off Gu Hao’s head.

Gu Hao was dead!

The air grew heavy at the sight. Ye Guan had just killed a member of the Gu Clan.

The Gu Clan was a superpower more powerful and influential than the An Clan.

Ye Guan was indeed a bold man.

Jiang Fan stared at Ye Guan in shock. Ye Guan’s strength had taken him by surprise.

Gu Hao wasn’t exactly a powerhouse, but he was still a formidable opponent. However, Ye Guan killed him without much effort.

Jiang Fan was also stupefied by the fact that Ye Guan had actually killed a Gu Clan member. If he were in Ye Guan’s shoes, Jiang Fan wouldn’t dare to do it. After all, they were talking about the Gu Clan here.

Ye Guan was correct in hindsight. Gu Hao was the type to hold grudges, so Ye Guan had most likely decided to kill Gu Hao to save himself from future troubles.

Jiang Fan shook his head and sighed.

The people who had stepped forward to fight Ye Guan had been too kind and well-mannered. Ye Guan hadn’t killed them, despite his victory. He even built a rapport with them.

However, it all changed when Gu Hao stepped up to attack Ye Guan.

Gu Hao was rude, and he had also openly declared that he would kill Ye Guan. In other words, there wasn’t anything wrong with his death. He deserved it!

Ye Guan started walking toward Ji Xuan. He opened his palm, revealing a dark gold armor appeared. The armor was made from golden scales covered in strange markings.

It was none other than the Supreme Divine-grade armor that Gu Hao had been carrying around.

Ye Guan gave the armor to Ji Xuan and said, “It’s yours.”

Ji Xuan was stunned. The lurkers in the shadows were stunned as well.

Why did he decide to give the armor to her?

The floor price of a Supreme Divine-grade armor was at least a hundred million gold crystals, but it wasn’t the type of spiritual artifact that one could buy, even if they had the money to buy it.

The demand for it was so intense that one would practically need immortal spiritual crystals to purchase it.

One needed at least a million immortal spiritual crystals to participate in the auction whenever a Supreme Divine-grade armor appeared in the market.

A million immortal spiritual crystals was a hefty sum. It wasn’t that much for the great clans and aristocratic families in the Main Guanxuan Academy, but a million immortal spiritual crystals was a sum that most cultivators from the Zhongtu Divine Continent would never see their entire lives.

It was simply too much money.

There were only a handful of powers on the Zhongtu Divine Continent capable of coughing up such a sum, but Ye Guan had actually given out such an expensive piece of armor to someone else as if it were worth nothing.

He was too generous!

Ji Xuan stared in disbelief at Ye Guan.

“Why?” she asked. She truly didn’t expect that Ye Guan would give such armor to her. After all, it was a Supreme Divine-grade armor.

Ye Guan suddenly asked, “What’s up with that stare?”

Ji Xuan said, “Why are you giving this to me?”

Ye Guan smiled and answered, “Because you’ll be safer with it…”

Ji Xuan cried, “But this is a Supreme?Divine-grade armor… it’s practically priceless!”

Ye Guan shook his head and said, “It’s valuable, yes, but it can’t compare to the company you have given me on this journey. Don’t misunderstand. I’m not using this armor to repay you. I truly feel like you’ll be safer wearing it.”

Ye Guan didn’t wait for Ji Xuan’s reply. He shoved the Supreme Divine-grade armor into the latter’s hands before turning around to face Jiang Fan.

Ji Xuan looked down at the Supreme Divine-grade armor in her hands before turning to look at Ye Guan. A faint smile slowly crept up her lips, and her eyes shone in a warm, gentle light.

Ye Guan walked over to Jiang Fan and asked, “How are we going to fight?”

A sparring or a death match?

Jiang Fan stared at Ye Guan for a while before saying, “Let’s spar.”

A death match? There was no need for that.

Jiang Fan was convinced that the swordsman in front of him wasn’t evil, and he also had no reason to be on bad terms with him.

In addition, what if Ye Guan truly reached Qingzhou and managed to summon the Sword Master?

There were no grudges between them, so there was no reason for them to fight to the death. Jiang Fan was aware that he had to be careful about his every?step on the arduous path to the summit.

Ye Guan nodded. “All right.”

“Brother Ye.” Jiang Fan’s gaze shone in determination as he said, “Please don’t hold back.”

“Sure,” responded Ye Guan.

Jiang Fan’s eyes narrowed, and he charged at Ye Guan with his spear.

A brilliant light pervaded the starry skies. Ye Guan felt a sense of foreboding from the spear light, and the spear light was too fast as well. The spear light surrounded him almost instantly, so Ye Guan had no choice but to retreat.

Jiang Fan was incredibly fast, and his attacks rained down on Ye Guan like a torrential downpour.

Ye Guan retreated without stopping, but he didn’t slow down. He avoided Jiang Fan’s attacks by a hair’s breadth. However, Jiang Fan was getting faster and faster. He was also getting closer and closer to Ye Guan with each attack.

Nonetheless, Ye Guan didn’t make any counterattacks.

He carefully analyzed Jiang Fan’s moves. Jiang Fan’s flurry of attacks lasted for quite a while until Ye Guan had retreated a few hundred meters away from his initial location.

Jiang Fan stopped. He had unleashed close to ten thousand thrusts with his spear using the full extent of his cultivation base, so it wasn’t strange that he was tired.

He stopped and retreated to catch his breath.

Swoosh!

However, Ye Guan finally made his move and vanished abruptly like a ghost.

Jiang Fan’s pupils constricted. He raised his spear in front of him.

The space around him vibrated, and streaks of spear light enveloped him, forming a sturdy shield.

However, Ye Guan came to a halt. He stared at Jiang Fan from afar.

Jiang Fan’s face turned ugly. He snorted in fury and charged at Ye Guan.

Jiang Fan pointed his spear at Ye Guan and shouted, “Spear Art!”

A thirty-meter-long red-colored spear light burst out of him, shattering the surrounding space.

Ye Guan retreated a bit more, and he wordlessly stared at Jiang Fan once more from afar.

Jiang Fan’s expression turned grim. He charged at Ye Guan once more as spear light streamed out of his sword.

Ye Guan vanished once again.

Swoosh!

Jiang Fan’s spear thrust struck nothing but air.

A cold shiver immediately ran down his spine, and he whipped around fiercely to see a sword flying toward his face.

Jiang Fan urgently brought his spear up to block the attack.

Clang!

The collision staggered him, and before he could regain his balance, another sword flew toward him.

Clang!

Jiang Fan was staggered once more.

Moments later, a dramatic but incredulous scene unfolded. Ye Guan took slow steps toward Jiang Fan. With every step he took, a sword light would flash, and Jiang Fan would stagger backward, leaving the latter no choice but to keep on defending.

It didn’t take that long for him to get completely overwhelmed. Soon, Jiang Fan was already a few hundred meters away from his initial position. Ye Guan vanished once again, and he reappeared behind Jiang Fan with a sword in hand.

Jiang Fan’s expression fell at the prickling sensation on his nape.

He whipped around, but the prickling sensation remained, which meant a sword was oncoming from behind him.

Human Sword Separation!

It was a sword technique that Ye Guan had comprehended by himself.

Human Sword Separation required half-truths and half-lies to work, and it was a technique that would inflict great confusion on one’s opponent. Jiang Fan went beyond pallid?upon sensing a sharp tip resting on his back.

He had lost, but it was a frustrating loss. If he had turned around, he would have faced Ye Guan’s attack, but if he hadn’t turned around, Ye Guan’s sword would have created another hole in his body.

The ultimate reason for his defeat was Ye Guan’s speed.

His attacks were too fast for Jiang Fan to dodge.

Jiang Fan stayed still, and the sword didn’t move as well.

It simply rested on his back.

Jiang Fan turned to Ye Guan and said, “I admit defeat.”

“Mmhm!” Ye Guan nodded. He flicked his sleeve, and the sword holding Jiang Fan hostage disappeared.

Jiang Fan’s expression was complicated as he said, “Your sword is too fast…”

Ye Guan smiled. “Thank you.”

Jiang Fan shook his head and opened his palm, revealing a white jade bottle that soon flew toward Ye Guan.

Jiang Fan explained, “The jade bottle contains a spiritual pill that’ll help you recover your profound energy and strength.”

Ye Guan accepted the gift and said, “Thank you.”

Jiang Fan said, “Brother Ye, your situation is too complicated, and my clan is too weak to intervene. I can’t be of much help to you. All the best!”

With that, Jiang Fan turned around and left.

Ye Guan stared at the departing Jiang Fan. After a while, he turned around and walked toward Ji Xuan.

“Let’s go,” he said.

Ji Xuan nodded, and the two boarded the space ship?once again.

Ye Guan wordlessly stared into the distance at the bow of the space ship.

Ji Xuan stood next to him and said, “I was really surprised.”

Ye Guan turned toward her.

Ji Xuan smiled and said, “I thought that those powerhouses from the Guanxuan Universe would come here to kill you, so I was surprised that we haven’t met a ton of them yet. I guess they’re pretty wise.”

Ye Guan nodded. There were good and bad people in this world, and it was applicable to the Guanxuan Academy as well. Ye Guan believed that his destiny wasn’t set in stone just yet because he would seek justice for himself in Qingzhou.

Justice!?Ye Guan closed his eyes and inwardly asked, “Master Pagoda, will the Sword Master take my side and seek justice for me?”

Little Pagoda calmly replied, “If he doesn’t, you can just kill him. I’ll give you moral support.”

Ye Guan abruptly froze.

“Little Pagoda!” the mysterious voice shouted, “You’re treading on dangerous waters here!”

Little Pagoda remained calm as he said, “What’s wrong with what I said? I’ve completely given up on reforming their parricidal thoughts. However, this brat is actually worse because he’s thinking of killing his father and his mother!

”This brat is stronger and bolder than the previous ones that it’s actually getting ridiculous. They’re demons, I’m telling you—extremely powerful demons! And they also leave me alone to do all the dirty work. I wonder when they’ll appreciate me.”

Little Pagoda was upset, and he felt incredibly wronged as well.

He had served three generations of the same family, so he had completely grasped the family’s tradition. Little Pagoda was very upset at the fact that the masters he had served so far had a few screws loose.
