I Have A Sword

Chapter 469: Start A New Lineage

Under the vast expanse of stars, Ye Guan flew on his sword, accompanied by the Great Daoist Brush Master.

It had already been three days since they left Blue Planet. Ye Guan and the Great Daoist Brush Master had done nothing but travel across the starry sky over the past three days. Ye Guan could no longer count how many star fields they went through, as they were strong enough to traverse an entire star field with just a single thought.

The vast expanse was indeed vast and boundless!

Ye Guan suddenly asked, "Senior, are we in the territory of the Eternal Night Empire?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master replied, "We're in another splendid civilization."

Ye Guan looked at the Great Daoist Brush Master and asked, "Another civilization?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master nodded. "Their martial arts is very advanced, especially the Eternal Night Clan's. Their clan leader cultivates the King Dao, which is a special kind of Dao that utilizes the wishes of sentient beings."

Ye Guan asked, "Faith power?"

"Something like that, but there's a difference. Wish power is more terrifying than faith power."

"In what way?"

"To explain this, I will first need to talk about the system in the Eternal Night Empire. Apart from the Eternal Night Clan, there is another clan known as the Eternal Clan. These two clans originally belonged to one lineage. The first ancestor of the Eternal Clan was a woman who left the Eternal Night Clan to start a lineage of her own..."

Ye Guan was shocked. Starting a whole new lineage sounds really impressive!

The Great Daoist Brush Master suddenly asked, "What? Would you like to start your own lineage as well?"

Ye Guan shook his head. "No! I have no such thoughts!"

You must be kidding. If I were to try and start my own lineage, I'm going to die without knowing why.

The Great Daoist Brush Master smiled. "It seems like you have such thoughts, though."

Ye Guan was at a loss for words.

The Great Daoist Brush Master continued, "Later on, the two clans vied for control over the Eternal Night Empire, and the conflict caused significant damage to their empire."

Ye Guan asked, "Who won in the end?"

"They both won," the Great Daoist Brush Master replied.

Ye Guan was puzzled. The Great Daoist Brush Master smiled. "Do you know how the emperor of the Eternal Night Empire is decided?"

"How?"

"It's decided by competition!"

"The emperor of the Eternal Night Empire can only rule for a maximum of three hundred years. The emperor can cultivate the King Dao Art during those three hundred years. If the emperor wins the favor of the people, the masses will elect him to be the emperor again.

"If they fail to do so, they must step down after three hundred years. Once they step down, they will no longer be able to cultivate the King Dao Art. Hence, every emperor will do everything they can to gain the favor of the people."

Ye Guan was silent. It was an unprecedented ruling system.

The Great Daoist Brush Master continued, "Every three hundred years, the two clans would send out a talented individual to compete for the emperor position."

Then, he looked at Ye Guan and said, "Speaking of which, the election is coming up soon. Upon arriving, let's stay quiet and observe the situation from the sidelines. Then, we'll form an alliance with the winner. After all, both clans have the King Dao Bloodline."

Ye Guan asked, "Senior, you mentioned earlier that I have three bloodlines, and you seem to be quite familiar with them. Can you tell me more about my third bloodline?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master glanced at Ye Guan with surprise and asked, "You don't know about it?"

"I don't..."

"Then you'll find out soon enough."

Ye Guan frowned.

The Great Daoist Brush Master said, "Focus on your Mad Demon Bloodline and your Phoenix Emperor Bloodline first. We'll talk about your third one once you've stabilized them."

"Is my third bloodline perhaps even stronger than the Mad Demon Bloodline and the Phoenix Emperor Bloodline?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master nodded. "Yes."

Ye Guan's pupils constricted, and he exclaimed, "That's impossible! The Mad Demon Bloodline is the strongest!"

The Great Daoist Brush Master smiled. "Your third bloodline is indeed stronger than the Mad Demon Bloodline. Actually, it can be said to be the most powerful !"

Ye Guan said, "My father has the Mad Demon Bloodline, and my mother has the Phoenix Emperor Bloodline. Where did my third bloodline come from?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master chuckled, rendering Ye Guan speechless.

This guy is really teasing me! Fuck! I really want to give him a good beating! Ye Guan lampooned inwardly. However, there wasn't really anything he could do if the Great Daoist Brush Master wasn't willing to tell him anything.

Ye Guan was really curious about his third bloodline. Bloodline power couldn't appear out of nowhere, unless there was a mutation in his blood. Ye Guan was sure that his blood hadn't mutated, so his third bloodline had to have come from somewhere.

Stronger than the Mad Demon Bloodline? Ye Guan glanced at the Great Daoist Brush Master. I think this guy is just messing with me.

The Great Daoist Brush Master suddenly said, "I know you're against arranged marriages, but if we can get the support of the Eternal Night Empire, you'll earn more time, and we all know that what you need is time. Relying solely on the True Universe and the Guanxuan Universe will not be enough."

Ye Guan was silent.

"Your grandfather also had arranged marriages back in his day..." The Great Daoist Brush Master trailed off.

Ye Guan looked at the Great Daoist Brush Master.

The Great Daoist Brush Master earnestly added, "It's true. He had many wives, and many of them were arranged marriages..."

Feeling a little guilty for talking about Ye Guan's grandfather behind the latter's back, The Great Daoist Brush Master surreptitiously looked around.

Ye Guan thought for a few moments before saying, "Senior, we're going to the Eternal Night Empire with a purpose, and they're not fools as well; how could they possibly..."

The Great Daoist Brush Master shook his head with a smile and said, "You're still a bit too naive."

Ye Guan looked baffled.

The Great Daoist Brush Master explained, "Who wouldn't want to gain ultimate power and strength? Social status and marriages between influential families are frequent, even in a small place like Blue Planet.

"We must get the Eternal Night Empire's support, or we will be in an extremely difficult situation once those Time Reversers make their move."

Ye Guan stared into the starry sky and went silent.

Ye Guan felt helpless. He finally understood what it meant to feel helpless. He finally realized that oftentimes, things wouldn't go according to one's desires. It was even more pronounced for Ye Guan, as his sword was far from invincible.

the Great Daoist Brush Master suddenly said, "I've already sent someone to investigate those Time Reversers."

Ye Guan emptied his mind and asked, "Investigate?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master nodded. "We need to know more about the strength of those Time Reversers and the information that's being exchanged between them. Otherwise, we'll suffer a big loss."

Ye Guan was slightly curious. "Who did you send to investigate them?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master replied, "That's a secret!"

Ye Guan shook his head and chuckled wryly.

"Little bastard, I've put everything on the line for you. I even made enemies out of those people just for you. You should know that we used to stay out of each other's business. In other words, I've been neutral, but it's a different story now.

"I've decided to stand against them, so you better not fool me. Otherwise, you'll become a failure of a human being."

Ye Guan said, "Senior, if I can't think of a better idea by then, I'll follow your suggestion."

"I believe in you," the Great Daoist Brush Master said.

Ye Guan asked, "Senior, have you also considered choosing my father?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master nodded.

Ye Guan was a little puzzled. "Why did you not choose him in the end?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master shook his head and said, "Your father was too unpredictable and really likes to fool people. If I had chosen him, he would have taken everything from me, including my underwear!

"You're not exactly an honest individual, but you're not as unpredictable as your father, so I decided to pick you."

Ye Guan smiled without saying anything.

The Great Daoist Brush Master stared into the depths of the starry and said, "The world has been chaotic for way too long. It needs a new order, a system that will allow the universe and all living beings to grow peacefully."

Ye Guan stared at the Great Daoist Brush Master with a complicated expression. He used to be wary of the latter, but now, it seemed like the Great Daoist Brush Master wasn't exactly a bad person.

Establish a new order... Ye Guan closed his eyes slowly. The scale had changed from the Guanxuan Universe to the entire vast expanse. Knowing that, Ye Guan had to make sure that his choices were the right choices. Was establishing a new order going to be difficult? Of course, it would be difficult, but it seemed to be the right choice!

Just then, the Great Daoist Brush Master said, "We're almost there."

Ye Guan looked up and realized that the surroundings had gotten significantly dark.

"Senior, why did the Eternal Night Empire decide to isolate itself?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master answered, "For two reasons. First of all, they're not interested in the outside world. Secondly and lastly, they don't want people from the outside world to enter their territory, either.

"After all, they're strong, and they're afraid that outsiders will covet their power, especially those Time Reversers."

"I've never really encountered Time Reversers before. How come they're like cabbages now?"

"The laws of Time and the Great Dao have been restricting them. Back then, if they were to travel from the past to the present, they would end up getting targeted by the laws of Time and the Great Dao, but now..."

"The Clan Leader of the Past Clan is helping them resist the laws of Time and the Great Dao?"

"Yes..."

"That woman... she's giving me a headache."

"She wanted to kill me the moment she laid eyes on me."

"Well, she recognized your value as a variable. It was a good thing the True God stopped her from killing you."

Ye Guan wanted to ask more questions, but the Great Daoist Brush Master said, "We're here."

Ye Guan retracted his thoughts and looked into the distance.

They were about to enter a star field. There was silence all around, and the star field was extremely dim. There was also a heavy and oppressive feeling that bored down on the two of them.

Soon, a terrifying pressure enveloped them.

Ye Guan's eyes narrowed. The terrifying pressure was an aura that belonged to a Great Destiny Sovereign, at the very least.

The Great Daoist Brush Master adjusted his clothes and took a step forward. "Tell your emperor that the Great Daoist Brush Master is here. Get him to come out and welcome me properly."

"The Great Daoist Brush Master?" A voice echoed from the distant star field.

The Great Daoist Brush Master nodded with a smile. "Yes, it's me."

"I've never heard of the Great Daoist Brush Master or something. Get lost!"
