I Have A Sword

Chapter 162: The Sword Master’s Son!

Both the old man and Ye Guan were shocked.

The entire clan will escort me? Ye Guan couldn’t believe it. He didn’t expect that Nanli Yin would do something like that, as it was equivalent to challenging the Immortal Treasures Pavilion!

My grandfather! Ye Guan suddenly recalled what the Nanli Clan ancestor had said about his grandfather. Nanli Yin was simply following her ancestor’s orders, and the ancestor sided with Ye Guan because she was acquainted with his grandfather!

Was my grandfather that charming?

Ye Guan asked, “Master Pagoda, just what kind of people are my grandfather’s friends?”

Little Pagoda remained silent.

Nanli Yin frowned at the frozen old man.

“What are you doing standing there?”

The old man snapped back to reality and bowed deeply before retreating to carry out his orders.

It didn’t take long for the skies to become filled with a multitudinous number of powerful auras. Thirty seconds later, powerhouses from all over the Time World appeared in the air above Ye Guan.

The weakest of them was in the Dao Tribulation Realm, and there were thousands of Seal Shattering Realm cultivators. There were some people whose aura was both inscrutable and terrifying.

The powerhouse of the Nanli Clan was here!

Ye Guan felt a bit awkward.

Meanwhile, the powerhouses’ eyes were on Nanli Yin.

Nanli Yin’s expression remained unchanging as she declared, “Today, our Nanli Clan will escort Young Lord Ye to the Sword Sect!”

The faces of the Nanli Clan powerhouses changed drastically. They were obviously aware of the arrest warrant the Immortal Treasures Pavilion had issued for Ye Guan, and they also knew that Ye Guan was the Chosen One’s nemesis!

The Paradise Master actually chose to stand on Ye Guan’s side? How foolish!

The Nanli Clan’s elders were about to voice their opinions, but Nanli Yin beat them to the chase and said, “I won’t entertain any comments about my decision today. If someone dares to spoil my plans, they better not blame me for being merciless!”

Nanli Yin swept her gaze across the Nanli Clan powerhouses.

None of them dared to speak.

Nanli Yin managed to become the Paradise Master, even though she was a woman, and it spoke volumes about her prowess. No one dared to disrespect her.

Nanli Yin looked at Ye Guan and said, “Little Guan, let’s leave.”

She waved her sleeve and tore a hole in the void.

A spacetime tunnel appeared, and she entered it with Ye Guan behind her.

The powerhouses of Time Paradise followed after them.

Nanli Yin stood at the helm with both hands behind her back with an expressionless look. It’s a gamble! This is a big gamble!

Her ancestor was fond of Ye Guan, so Nanli Yin decided to follow her gut feeling and her ancestor’s foresight to gamble on Ye Guan. Time Paradise had already reached the limits of its growth, so it was difficult for them to develop any further.

However, Ye Guan had shown her a ray of hope—the opportunity to bring Time Paradise to even greater heights.

Ye Guan just had to defeat the Chosen One, and he would definitely become an extremely terrifying Great Sword Sovereign among Great Sword Sovereigns!

Ye Guan’s status was special as well, and it had been the biggest factor behind Nanli Yin’s decision.

There was no way that her ancestor wouldn’t have any idea about the Guanxuan Academy and the Immortal Treasures Pavilion’s might. However, she had still told her to help Ye Guan all the way.

Regardless, let’s just help him, and everything will eventually fall into place.

The faces of quite a few Nanli Clan members were ugly. What’s with our Clan Leader? Why is she doing something so preposterous?

However, they had no other choice but to follow her orders. It would be foolish of them to cause internal strife at this point.

Boom!

The spacetime tunnel ahead of them abruptly collapsed.

Nanli Yin’s eyes narrowed. She waved her sleeve, and her aura engulfed everyone.

She pointed at an intact part of the spacetime tunnel near them and shattered it.

Boom!

The spacetime tunnel melted away, and they found themselves in the middle of the starry skies.

Twelve terrifying cultivators stood ahead of them.

Immortal Soldiers!

The faces of the Nanli Clan members turned heavy. The armed forces of the Immortal Treasures Pavilion consisted of three divisions—the Immortal Soldiers, Dao Soldiers, and the legendary Martial Court Divine Guards!

The three divisions were carefully trained by the Immortal Treasures Pavilion, so every division member was an extremely powerful cultivator in their own right.

The Immortal Soldier with the lowest cultivation base among the twelve of them was a Pinnacle Realm cultivator. It had to be known that the Pinnacle Realm was the realm above the Seal Shattering Realm.

A black-robed old man stood at the helm, and he was radiating an extremely terrifying aura. He glared at Nanli Yin and said, “Paradise Master Nanli, your actions have been truly appalling!”

Nanli Yin cackled and said, “So it’s you, Deputy Commander Ouyang Xin. I truly did not expect that you would personally lead your troops today! It seems like you guys are truly afraid of Ye Guan reaching the Sword Sect!”

Ouyang Xin shook his head and said, “Paradise Master Nanli, it must have been difficult for Time Paradise to reach its current heights. Are you sure you want to risk the foundation that has taken your ancestors countless years to build over an outsider? And even the lives of your clansmen?”

The powerhouses of Time Paradise glanced at Nanli Yin. Honestly, they didn’t want to go against the Guanxuan Academy and the Immortal Treasures Pavilion.

However, Nanli Yin simply glared at Ouyang Xin and warned, “Ouyang Xin, you have three seconds to back off. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude!”

Ouyang Xin’s eyes narrowed, and he retorted, “Fighting me means you’ll be declaring war on the Immortal Treasures Pavilion!”

Nanli Yin took a step out. Fury flashed in her eyes as she roared, “So be it!”

She suddenly waved her sleeve and sent thousands of lightning bolts toward Ouyang Xin.

Ouyang Xin’s pupils constricted. He balled his right hand into a fist before punching out. A torrent of dazzling light erupted from his fist.

Rumble!

A deafening explosion echoed. Ouyang Xin flew three hundred meters away from the impact as the lightning bolts annihilated even space itself.

The eleven Immortal Soldiers were furious. They were about to make a move, but countless powerful auras immobilized them at once.

The powerhouses of Time Paradise glared at the eleven Immortal Soldiers. They were prepared to kill the Immortal Soldiers if the latter made even the slightest movement.

They didn’t agree with Nanli Yin’s actions, but they were not going to question her at the moment. After all, it was important to them to stand united and deal with external threats first before settling the issue with Nanli Yin internally.

The faces of the eleven Immortal Soldiers turned ugly. They couldn’t have thought that Time Paradise would actually dare to fight them.

They were from the Immortal Treasures Pavilion, after all.

Even the Guanxuan Academy had to show respect to them!

Yet, Time Paradise was actually trying to besiege them! This was absurd!

Ouyang Xin glared angrily at Nanli Yin and threatened her once more. “Nanli Yin, do you have any idea what you’re doing? At this rate, you’ll plunge Time Paradise into the abyss!”

Nanli Yin ignored Ouyang Xin and said blandly, “Let’s go, Young Lord Ye.”

She waved her sleeve once again and created another rift in the void. She pulled Ye Guan away with her, and the powerhouses of Time Paradise hurried after them.

Ouyang Xin’s face soured, and he yelled, “Notify the elders!”

He took out a transmission talisman and shattered it. His face was filled with fury as he stared at where Nanli Yin had disappeared.

“Nanli Yin, your Time Paradise will pay for this!”

…

Nanli Yin’s hands were behind her back as she stood at the helm of the Nanli Clan powerhouses in the spacetime tunnel. Despite the encounter just now, her expression was calm.

Meanwhile, the faces of the people around her were gloomy.

Time Paradise had just provoked the Immortal Treasures Pavilion. They could already imagine just how the Immortal Treasures Pavilion would take revenge on them, and they were also aware that Time Paradise wasn’t strong enough to withstand the anger of the Immortal Treasures Pavilion.

An old man walked up to Nanli Yin.

After a moment of hesitation, he said, “Paradise Master, I know that you are a meticulous individual, and there’s a reason behind all of your actions. However, we are truly worried at the moment, so can you please tell us at least a hint?”

They knew that Nanli Yin had a good enough reason for helping Ye Guan.

But you have to tell us what it is! Otherwise, our worries won’t be assuaged!

Nanli Yin remained silent for quite a while. She really wanted a detailed explanation from Nanli Meng, but Nanli Meng didn’t really tell her anything conclusive.

Nanli Yin swept her gaze across the powerhouses of Time Paradise.

She could see the worry in their eyes.

Nanli Yin pondered for a little while. Eventually, she used Profound Sound Transmission and said, “Grand Elder, you know that I would never do anything that would harm Time Paradise!”

The Grand Elder nodded and replied, “I know! So—”

Nanli Yin said in a serious tone, “Young Lord Ye’s background is not simple.”

His background isn’t simple? The Grand Elder frowned and asked, “Is his background more extraordinary than the Chosen One’s background?”

Nanli Yi calmly said, “His name is Ye Guan, and his surname is Ye. He’s a monstrous talent on the Sword Dao… do you understand what I’m trying to say?”

The Grand Elder froze and mulled over it. Then, his eyes shot wide open; he looked like a hammer had struck him in the head as he stammered, “Fuck! H-h-he…”

Nanli Yin nodded with a serious look. She had no choice but to nod for now. She also had to exaggerate Ye Guan’s background. Otherwise, the powerhouses of Time Paradise would die of worry.

She had no choice but to tell a big, fat lie[1] to assuage the worry of her troops.

The Grand Elder gulped. “Clan Leader… Is that true? You can’t joke around about something like this!”

Nanli Yin remained calm as she said, “Did you not see me summon our ancestor? I simply told you what she told me. Do you really think that she’ll joke around about something like that?”

Ancestor?! The Grand Elder trembled all over in agitation. Oh my god! This bastard is actually the Sword Master’s son?! No wonder he’s such a monster!

The Grand Elder glanced sideways at Ye Guan and was surprised to discover something. This bastard actually looks quite similar to the Sword Master!

The Grand Elder truly believed Nanli Yin’s words. The resemblance is uncanny!

“This matter is of great importance,” said Nanli Yin. “It's better if fewer people know about this. Do you understand?”

“I understand!” The Grand Elder hurriedly nodded. “I truly understand!”

Nanli Yin heaved a sigh of relief.

The Grand Elder walked away, and he was immediately surrounded by the other elders of the clan. They all looked at him, hoping that he would give them an explanation.

However, the Grand Elder remained expressionless as he said, “What are you looking at? Young Lord Ye is Time Paradise’s friend. Our Time Paradise can definitely afford to take a few knife stabs for the sake of our friend.

”We can also endure getting our heads smashed in; we can climb mountains covered in knives and even jump into a sea of fire—”

The Second Elder tugged on the Grand Elder’s sleeve and said, “We’re not children, so we’re not going to fall for those fancy words. Just tell us something we want to hear!”

The other elders nodded in agreement.

The Grand Elder stole a glance at Ye Guan. He sounded serious as he said, “I’m sure you guys already know what kind of people are the Clan Leader and me. Would we really do something that would harm Time Paradise?

”Just give it your all. Don’t worry about anything else!”

The elders were rendered speechless.

However, the Second Elder was unwilling to give up. He used Profound Sound Transmission to ask, “Grand Elder, can you at least tell me a bit more? I’m really worried, and don’t you trust me as well?”

The Grand Elder pondered briefly before telling the Second Elder everything using Profound Sound Transmission.

The Second Elder’s eyes widened, and he exclaimed, “What the fuck? What?”

The Grand Elder grabbed the Second Elder’s hand and said in a low voice, “Take a closer look at him!”

The Second Elder turned to look at Ye Guan.

The Grand Elder asked, “Don’t they look alike?”

The Second Elder’s voice trembled as he said, “I wouldn’t have realized it if you hadn’t said it. Now that you’ve told me… Fuck, the resemblance is uncanny!”

The Grand Elder sounded stern as he said, “This matter is of great importance. Do not reveal it to anyone else, do you understand?”

“Yes, I understand!” The Second Elder hurriedly nodded and exclaimed, “I understand!”

The Grand Elder closed his eyes to try and calm his heart.

The other elders stared at the Second Elder.

The Second Elder said, “What are you looking at? Would the Grand Elder and I do anything to harm Time Paradise? Just give it your all. Don’t worry about anything else!”

The other elders couldn’t believe their ears. You two are truly a pair of bastards!

1. T/N: Nanli Yin does not know for sure that Ye Guan is the Sword Master’s son therefore to her, this is a ‘lie’ that she made up. ☜
