I Have A Sword

Chapter 154: Wonderful

120 million! Wanyan Gu’s eyes widened in disbelief. How fierce! How manly! Wanyan Gu grinned after the initial shock. How wonderful! He’s so amazing!

Wanyan Gu had been planning on making a move, but Ye Guan had killed every enemy before she could even intervene. What a domineering young man!

Meanwhile, footsteps echoed behind Ye Guan.

Ye Guan’s eyes narrowed. He actually failed to detect the approach of the individual walking toward him from behind him. However, Ye Guan didn’t turn around. He kept his right hand behind his back, and his expression remained as calm as a placid lake.

Wanyan Gu looked behind Ye Guan and saw an old man in black.

The old man in black was sporting a goatee, and he was skinny, but he didn’t look frail at all. The old man in black’s eyes were his most striking features. His eyes were giving off a domineering light.

Ye Guan was still facing away from the old man in black.

The old man in black’s gaze deepened as he asked, “Are you going to keep facing your back to me?”

The black-robed old man pinned to the stone pillar cried out, “Governor Sang, save—”

A sword tip pressed against the black-robed old man’s neck, forcing him to close his mouth.

Governor Sang. Wanyan Gu’s expression turned solemn.

Ye Guan turned to look at Governor Sang.

“Did you come here to talk or fight?” he asked.

Talk or fight? Wanyan Gu was stunned, and she stared at Ye Guan in shock.

She truly didn’t expect that Ye Guan would remain so straightforward even in front of Governor Sang. Her expression soon turned strange. Ye Guan was truly a cut above the average cultivators.

Governor Sang calmly asked, “Are you that confident?”

Ye Guan stared at Governor Sang and asked back, “Talk or fight?”

Governor Sang glared at Ye Guan. “Do you have any idea where you are?”

Swoosh!

Ye Guan abruptly vanished.

Rumble!

Ye Guan shattered the spacetime rules to reach Governor Sang in the proverbial blink of an eye.

Governor Sang’s expression changed drastically. Ye Guan’s speed had caught him off guard, but he still managed to make a move by pointing out with his finger.

Crackle!

Thunder crackled as Ye Guan’s sword and a bolt of lightning collided against each other.

Governor Sang had to retreat, but a sword was already hurtling toward him just as he thought he was safe. Governor Sang’s pupils constricted, and his heart skipped a beat.

Unfortunately, the sword reached his eyebrow before he could make another move.

Governor Sang stared at Ye Guan in disbelief.

“You’re Sword Sovereign Ye Guan!” he shouted.

Ye Guan frowned and asked, “You know me?”

Wanyan Gu smiled and explained, “You’ve become famous. Virtually everyone knows that you’ve challenged the Chosen One.”

Ye Guan smiled and remarked, “It seems that I’ve been riding on his coattails.”

Ye Guan turned to look at Governor Sang and asked, “Your man cheated me of 120 million gold spiritual crystals. How do you think we should settle this?”

Governor Sang frowned slightly as he glanced at the black-robed old man.

The black-robed old man revealed a look of pain. He wanted to speak, but he didn’t dare to do so.

Governor Sang knew that Ye Guan was exaggerating things.

Ye Guan wordlessly stared at Governor Sang.

Governor Sang eventually said, “Young Lord Ye, you may kill him and recover what he stole.”

The black-robed old man despaired. Governor Sang had just abandoned him.

Ye Guan smiled and pointed out. “It seems that you have no intention of compensating me.”

Governor Sang explained, “He’s the one who extorted you, so this matter has nothing to do with me.”

Ye Guan asked, “He’s your subordinate, right?”

Governor Sang said indifferently, “No.”

No? Ye Guan’s eyes narrowed. Great! It seems that you guys know how to play this game as well. I don’t think he has any intention of taking responsibility for his subordinate’s mistake.

The black-robed old man felt like he was suffocating from the injustice. He stared at Ye Guan and screamed inwardly, I wouldn’t have dared to even attempt to extort you if you had just told me that you’re a Sword Sovereign from the get-go. You’re a Sword Sovereign, so how come you look so harmless? You’re really a scourge!

Ye Guan smiled at Governor Sang and said, “Governor Sang, is there anyone higher than you?”

Governor Sang’s eyebrows furrowed. “What do you mean?”

Ye Guan said, “I want to speak to someone else.”

Governor Sang’s expression changed. “Young Master Ye, you actually have no idea who’s behind Dark City? You—”

“How are they compared to the An Clan?” Ye Guan asked.

Governor Sang gazed deeply at Ye Guan as he said, “Stronger!”

They’re stronger than the An Clan? Ye Guan froze, briefly surprised. Interesting.

Ye Guan was about to speak, but Governor Sang hurriedly added, “Young Master Ye, I’m not trying to threaten you, but the people behind Dark City are truly terrifying.

”They’re powerful powerhouses in their own right, and they’re also influential. They’re considered true powerhouses even in the Guanxuan Universe, and they also have a relationship with the Sword Master in the distant past.”

Ye Guan asked, “They have a connection with the Sword Master?”

Governor Sang nodded. “Yes.”

Ye Guan frowned.

Governor Sang continued. “We have indeed offended you, Young Master Ye, but I truly don’t have 120 million gold spiritual crystals. How about this? You’re going to the Guanxuan Universe, right? How about I send you there for free?”

“What are your higher-ups going to do if I were to kick up a fuss here?” Ye Guan asked.

Governor Sang froze and went silent.

Ye Guan smiled and added, “No, I think I should say—what’s going to happen to you if I turn this place upside down?”

Governor Sang’s face soured.

Ye Guan calmly continued. “Governor Sang, I’ve always been very clear when it comes to favors and grudges. I would have perished long ago if I were merciful, so I will not show mercy or pity toward my enemies.

”If you’re unhappy, you can summon your higher-ups here. I would love to know who has been hiding behind the scenes and was shameless enough to employ such a dirty trick.”

Governor Sang remained silent. The people behind him had to remain hidden at all costs. If things went out of control, and the incident ended up implicating that elder…

Governor Sang could already imagine his horrible fate.

Governor Sang’s gaze was complicated as he stared at Ye Guan.

What a scheming young man! He’s not forcing that elder to come here. He’s betting that the elder exists, and he’s trying to squeeze as much value as he can from my so-called higher-ups to pressure me into acquiescing.

Governor Sang seemed to have recalled something as he glared coldly at the black-robed old man.

“What are you looking at, you asshole!” shouted the black-robed old man. He was no longer afraid. He was about to die, so he decided to remain arrogant until the end.

Governor Sang’s face turned ugly at the black-robed old man’s words.

Ye Guan suddenly said, “Governor Sang, forgive me for being blunt, but no one in Dark City is strong enough to stop me. You have two choices: give me back my money or call your backer to come out. Of course, I will also call for backup.”

Little Pagoda suddenly asked, “Who are you calling?”

Ye Guan said, “The other elder in the pagoda.”

Little Pagoda replied, “She’s not—”

“Shut up!” The mysterious voice frantically yelled, “Shut up, you dumbass!”

Little Pagoda went numb upon being scolded by the mysterious voice. Damn! This little bastard. What the fuck? What is this brat? Is he a type of poison that is making me dig my own grave? T-this is absurd!

Ye Guan heard Little Pagoda’s words before he was mysteriously interrupted.

“There really is someone else…” he muttered. He had always been suspicious that there was someone else in the tiny pagoda. He had never really been sure, but he finally confirmed that Little Pagoda wasn’t alone in the tiny pagoda.

Governor Sang asked, “Young Master Ye, are you sure you want to go that far?”

Ye Guan stared deeply at Governor Sang before saying, “I’ll give you a discount. Sixty million gold spiritual crystals.”

“Deal,” Governor Sang replied almost immediately.

Ye Guan froze, astonished. He didn’t expect Governor Sang to agree almost immediately. He had been expecting a fight between the two of them, but he was mistaken.

Ye Guan couldn’t help but ask, “Are you sure?”

Governor Sang took out a storage ring and handed it over to Ye Guan.

The storage ring contained exactly sixty million gold spiritual crystals.

Ye Guan fell silent.

Governor Sang hurriedly said, “Young Master Ye, didn’t you want to go to the Guanxuan Universe? You should hurry up and leave. The Immortal Treasures Pavilion doesn’t want you to reach the Guanxuan Universe.

”You’ll have issues going there unless you leave right now.”

Ye Guan glanced at the storage ring on Governor Sang’s hand. “Give that to me.”

Governor Sang’s expression stiffened.

Ye Guan calmly explained, “It belongs to me. Didn’t I win earlier?”

Ye Guan opened his palm, and Governor Sang’s storage ring flew into his hand.

Governor Sang didn’t resist at all.

Ye Guan examined the storage ring and found twenty million gold spiritual crystals.

Governor Sang was truly a rich man. Ye Guan was also aware that Governor Sang had more money, but he didn’t have the luxury to bicker over more money with Governor Sang. Ye Guan decided to be satisfied with this haul.

Ye Guan took the storage ring of the black-robed old man. The black-robed old man was poorer than Governor Sang, which was a given. However, he only had about seven million gold spiritual crystals, which was questionable, considering his shamelessness.

Ye Guan was delighted, and he turned to look at Wanyan Gu.

Swoosh!

A storage ring containing forty-three million gold spiritual crystals floated over to her.

Wanyan Gu blinked. “Is that for me?”

Ye Guan nodded and explained, “Everyone gets a share.”

Wanyan Gu grinned. “I won’t stand on ceremony, then.”

She put the storage ring away. Forty-three million gold spiritual crystals were so much money that Wanyan Gun couldn’t refuse the offer.

Ye Guan stared at Governor Sang and said, “Governor Sang, please tell your backer that I’m just a passerby with no ill intent. Of course, don’t forget to tell them to please not seek revenge. Thank you.”

With that, Ye Guan headed to the teleportation array with Wanyan Gu.

Governor Sang stood frozen and was silent.

Ye Guan led Wanyan Gu into the teleportation array, and the two were soon whisked away from Dark City.

Governor Sang finally turned around.

A shadow appeared in his field of view.

Governor Sang instantly fell to his knees and muttered, “Elder…”

The shadow calmly said, “Leave.”

Governor Sang hesitated, but he soon ran away.

The black-robed old man escaped as well. He had suffered a critical wound, but both Ye Guan and Governor Sang had decided to leave him alone. In other words, this was his golden opportunity to escape, and he took it after a brief moment of hesitation.

Meanwhile, the shadow wordlessly turned to the teleportation array that Ye Guan and Wanyan Gu had used to leave Dark City. The shadow was silent for quite a while before it muttered, “You look so similar… it seems that someone’s about to run out of luck! Hehehe…”
