I Have A Sword

Chapter 49: Die Together

The plot twist stupefied everyone.

Zhao Su’s face grew ashen. Someone actually dared to interfere with the Guanxuan Academy’s martial contest!

She was about to take action, but Yuan Gu stopped her.

Yuan Gu shook his head slightly and explained, “He’s the Grand Elder of the True Dragon Clan, Ao Xiao. The Guanxuan Academy will be fine, but you’ll most likely die if you stop him.”

The True Dragon Clan! The True Dragon Clan was located within the Zhongtu Divine Continent’s Demon Realm along with the Ancient Monkey Clan. They were the two rulers of the Zhongtu Divine Continent’s Demon Realm.

Even the Zhongtu Divine Continent’s Guanxuan Academy had to be wary of them because the mother clan of the True Dragon Clan—the Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan, had important positions in the Main Academy of the Guanxuan Academy.

If backers were to be compared, then the Zhongtu Divine Continent’s Guanxuan Academy could only hope to compare to them.

Zhao Su was aware that she couldn’t resist the True Dragon Clan. If she took action, there was a high chance that her outcome would be what Yuan Gu had said. The True Dragon Clan wouldn’t dare to go all-out against the Guanxuan Academy, but they could still kill her.

They could even do it without anyone noticing it.

Zhao Su was silent for quite a while before asking, “Am I supposed to just ignore it?”

Yuan Gu nodded. “Bear with it, or you will die!”

Zhao Su wordlessly clenched her fists. She eventually closed her eyes. She felt helpless—helpless because she knew that she couldn’t possibly beat such a powerful being from Zhongtu Divine Continent. She could try and contact the Main Academy, but transmissions could easily be intercepted.

Zhao Su sighed internally and loosened her fists. She could only give up. She was furious, but the cold reality was that she could only bow in front of a stronger being.

Meanwhile, Ye Guan was on the ground with Nalan Jia. Nalan Jia’s body and soul were turning into ashes at horrifying speeds. Soon, she would cease to exist.

Ye Guan could only stare blankly at Nalan Jia.

Ao Xiao glared at Ye Guan. “How can the likes of you be worthy of killing a dragon of my True Dragon Clan?”

He had come here to save An Mu’s dragon. An Mu was a young master of the True Dragon Clan, so he couldn’t allow him to die.

If he died here and at the hands of Ye Guan, the True Dragon Clan would surely become Zhongtu Divine Continent’s laughingstock.

Ao Xiao wouldn’t have dared to do something like this if he were on Zhongtu Divine Continent, but he was on the Upper Realm. He couldn’t care less about the rules.

Who would dare to go against me? Who?! Ao Xiao glared murderously at Ye Guan.

Ye Guan’s sword was sharp enough to shatter the defenses of a True Dragon, and he was a swordsman as well. He would definitely be a huge threat to the True Dragon Clan in the future, so Ao Xiao was determined to kill him.

He clenched his right fist, and a horrifying energy gathered in his palm. Ao Xiao’s killing intent was palpable.

The spectators from the three hundred and sixty states watched the scene unfold in shock. How did things end up like this? Wasn’t this supposed to be a fair fight? This is clearly just bullying. What’s up with the Guanxuan Academy? Why are they not doing anything? Just why?

The spectators were confused

Siao Ge suddenly shouted, “Wasn’t this supposed to be a fair fight? How is this a fair fight?!”

The spectators on the audience stand were silent. Zhao Su was silent as well.

They were aware that all this was unfair, but they didn’t do anything other than watch.

Siao Ge was stupefied by their silence.

“How is this fair? Where is the justice?” he cried out.

Zhao Su and the other spectators remained silent. What was fairness and justice in the face of absolute power?

No one was daring enough to go against the True Dragon Clan.

Meanwhile, Ao Xiao was about to attack Ye Guan when a mysterious power suddenly wrapped around Nalan Jia’s waning soul.

An irritated voice echoed. “Damn it, damn it, damn it all!”

Hum!

A golden beam of light shot out of Ye Guan and soared into the sky. The illusory figure of a tiny pagoda appeared before coalescing into a golden illusory figure. There was no mistaking it. The illusory figure was none other than Master Pagoda!

Ao Xiao’s eyes narrowed. “Who the hell are you?”

Master Pagoda roared, “I am your bloody ancestor! You rotten lizard!”

Master Pagoda abruptly disappeared.

Ao Xiao’s pupils constricted, and he punched out with his right hand.

Swoosh!

Ao Xiao’s punch collided with a golden beam of light.

Boom!

The golden beam of light shattered, and Ao Xiao was sent flying.

The spectators were dumbstruck.

However, Master Pagoda wasn’t done just yet as he[1] grabbed Ao Xiao by the head and slammed him to the ground.

Boom!

The ground shattered on impact, and the sight made the spectators reel in shock. They had never imagined, even in their wildest dreams, that they would one day witness a True Dragon being beaten up to a pulp.

Ao Xiao growled and transformed into his true form—a kilometer-long giant dragon. He took to the sky to widen the distance between him and Master Pagoda.

Master Pagoda’s illusory figure appeared above Ao Xiao, and he stomped on the latter.

Thump!

Ao Xiao plummeted like a meteor, and everyone could barely hear his miserable shriek as blood poured out of his mouth. It was a one-sided beatdown.

Ao Xiao crashed to the ground, and Master Pagoda reappeared on his stomach.

Rip!

Master Pagoda tore a hole in Ao Xiao’s stomach, and he started gouging Ao Xiao’s innards and tendons.

The spectators were horrified.

Master Pagoda’s action of gouging out Ao Xiao’s tendons was trampling on the dignity of the True Dragon Clan.

The intense pain made Ao Xiao wail, but Master Pagoda wasn’t done just yet as he gouged out every single tendon in Ao Xiao’s body.

The wasteland was soon drenched with dragon blood.

Ao Xiao was barely alive.

“Master Pagoda!” shouted Ye Guan.

Master Pagoda stopped and turned to look at Ye Guan.

Ye Guan’s voice was trembling as he asked, “Little Jia… can you save her?”

Master Pagoda walked toward Ye Guan.

He briefly examined Nalan Jia before saying, “Yes!”

“Please save her!” Ye Guan begged.

Master Pagoda’s voice was solemn as he said, “I can’t save her for now. I can only protect her soul. Her soul is severely injured. We need a sword. You need to find a sword that will help her recover. If I save her with an injured soul, she will never be the same.”

Ye Guan hurriedly asked, “What sword is it?”

Master Pagoda responded, “Qingxuan Sword.”

Qingxuan Sword! Ye Guan’s pupils constricted. “The Sword Master’s sword?”

Master Pagoda nodded. “Yes.”

Ye Guan asked, “Where is it?”

Master Pagoda replied, “Zhongtu Divine Continent. It is in the hands of the Undying Clan.”

The Undying Clan… Ye Guan clenched his fists.

Master Pagoda added, “For now, I’ll store her soul in your sword.”

Ye Guan felt like he was suffocating as he stared at Nalan Jia’s soul, which looked exactly like Nalan Jia. He reached out to touch her face gently before whispering, “Little Jia, wait for me.”

With that, he sucked Nalan Jia’s soul into his Path Sword.

He wiped the blood off of his lips and stood up before walking toward Ao Xiao.

Ao Xiao was on the brink of death.

The spectators watched as Ye Guan walked over to Ao Xiao’s dragon head.

Lee Wan’s voice echoed from the audience stand. “You’ll become an enemy of the True Dragon Clan for eternity if you kill him! You’ll definitely die once the True Dragon Clan places a bounty on your head. You should think twice—”

Ye Guan lifted his sword and swung it downward.

Thud!

There was a dull thud as Ao Xiao’s head fell to the ground, and blood spurted out like a fountain from the bloody stump.

The spectators went silent.

Ye Guan turned around and started walking toward An Mu.

Yuan Gu saw that, and he hurriedly shouted, “No!”

Ye Guan stopped and glanced at Yuan Gu.

Yuan Gu stared at Ye Guan and explained, “The An Clan has two martial goddesses, and his dao protector is one of those two martial goddesses. He belongs to the An Clan. If you kill him, you’ll be an enemy of those two martial goddesses as well as the Guanxuan Academy, so you should—”

Ye Guan abruptly vanished.

Shunk!

Ye Guan’s Path Sword pierced An Mu’s forehead, immobilizing him.

Rumble!

A horrifying power descended, and it seemed to have come from a distant galaxy. Rumbling noises echoed throughout the entire Upper Realm as it trembled beneath the terrifying power. The entire Upper Realm was trembling!

Yuan Gu’s voice trembled as he cried out, “This horrifying power must be from an ancestor of the An Clan!”

The An Clan’s history spanned millions of years, and they had produced many powerful cultivators aside from their two martial goddesses. It seemed that an incredibly powerful ancestor of the An Clan spurred into action.

Ye Guan looked up. The power was terrifying, and the True Dragon’s bloodline suppression couldn’t be compared to the horrifying pressure that was currently boring down on him.

Ye Guan snickered and closed his eyes. He wasn’t born at the same time as Little Jia, but he could die at the same time as her.

Buzz!

The Path Sword in Ye Guan’s hands vibrated.
