I Have A Sword

Chapter 517: Little Pagoda Is Taking the Blame Again

Ye Guan was just joking. There was no way he could make a move on her, considering their current situation. Regardless, Ye Guan was touched by Ao Qianqiang's gesture. Her suggestion was just her way of helping him become even stronger. Otherwise, she wouldn't have made such an embarrassing suggestion.

Ye Guan smiled lightly and gave Ao Qianqian's hand a firm squeeze. "No rush."

Ao Qianqian shot him an embarrassed and angry look. "You're the one in a rush."

Ye Guan chuckled and said nothing.

"If we do that, our synchronization rate will reach a hundred percent, and our strength will improve by leaps and bounds," said Ao Qianqian with a serious face.

"Yes, but this isn't the right time."

Ao Qianqian hesitated, but she ended up nodding slightly.

Ye Guan turned to face the Dark Dragons and remarked, "These dragons are incredibly powerful, and we must bring them all under our control."

"It shouldn't be a problem."

Ye Guan nodded and muttered. "I wonder how the Guanxuan Universe and the True Universe are faring right now."

Ye Guan had lost all contact with both universes since the Time Reversers began chasing after him. Cirou and the others were strong, but he still couldn't shake off his concerns.

The Time Reversers were extremely powerful, after all. More importantly, Ye Guan still had no idea just how many top-tier supreme elites would end up chasing after him. He couldn't help but sigh.

Frankly, he was really having a hard time surviving this mess.

Sensing Ye Guan's tumultuous emotions, Ao Qianqian squeezed Ye Guan's and whispered, "I'll always be by your side."

Ye Guan's heart fluttered, and he turned to look at Ao Qianqian next to him. Then, he unconsciously leaned over for a kiss.

It was a smooth, tender, and gentle kiss.

Caught off guard by Ye Guan's sudden kiss, Ao Qianqian quivered slightly, but she made no attempt to resist. After what felt like an eternity, their lips finally parted. A rosy flush graced Ao Qianqian's face, making her look even more beautiful.

An indescribable fire erupted within Ye Guan, and a certain bloodline within him became restless. Ye Guan shook his head and smiled wryly. He gave Ao Qianqian one more gentle kiss and said, "I'm heading out."

Ao Qianqian nodded, blushing furiously.

Ye Guan grinned and exited the tiny pagoda.

Left all alone, Ao Qianqian noticed something amiss. She turned around and found the Dark Dragons staring intently at her. Ao Qianqian raised a brow, seemingly irritated. "What are you staring at?"

The Dark Dragons dared not to speak.

After leaving the tiny pagoda, Ye Guan glanced behind him and saw that the Time Reversers had yet to catch up to him. He looked down at himself and noted that roughly seventy percent of his fleshly body was now covered in intricate patterns.

Ye Guan was excited. He'd soon have a Mortal Physique. It was a pity that the Mortal Bloodline would only activate during battles for the sake of reforming his physique through fights. It was quiet and withdrawn like the Mad Demon Bloodline.

Ye Guan truly wanted to fight, but he had too many enemies to deal with. If he were to fight them head-on, there'd be a high chance that he might end up dying.

Just then, Ye Guan recalled something and closed his eyes. He opened his palm, and Xuanyuan appeared instantly. Ye Guan's manageable limit was three Space Overlaps containing the same amount of Heavenrends but with ten thousand stacks.

Ye Guan's strongest technique at the moment was Space Overlap, and it was so strong that it allowed him to contend against top-tier Sovereigns. What if he could raise his Space Overlap limit from three to four?

Ye Guan's eyes narrowed. A Space Overlap on top of another Space Overlap meant an exponential increase in power rather than just a hundred percent increase. If he could condense four Space Overlaps into one sword move, Ye Guan reckoned that he would be able to take down a Sovereign. Unfortunately, he dared not take the risk, even if Ao Qianqian was one with him.

Why? It would be too much for his fleshly body to withstand. Yes, the generated power would be so overwhelming that he wouldn't be able to endure the burden, even with Ao Qianqian's help.

However, the story was different when it came to the Mortal Physique!

Ye Guan's brow furrowed. Actually, he was doubtful. Could his fleshly body truly withstand the might of four Space Overlays once it had become a Mortal Physique, all thanks to the Mortal Bloodline's reformation?

Just as Ye Guan was engrossed in his own thoughts, a spacetime rift manifested in the distance. A group of supreme elites emerged, and they were led by none other than the Heavenly Yuan Sovereign.

So they're finally here... Ye Guan remained silent. Clearly, the lurkers keeping tabs on his location were far more powerful than he initially thought. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to locate him consistently.

The Heavenly Yuan Sovereign frowned. "You've been waiting for us here?"

“Yes."

The Heavenly Yuan Sovereign scrutinized Ye Guan and asked, "What kind of tricks are you trying to pull?"

Ye Guan smiled wryly. "What tricks can I possibly pull when there are so many of you?"

“Are you thinking of taking us all on by yourself?" asked the Heavenly Yuan Sovereign.

Ye Guan shook his head and replied, "Rumors about your unparalleled strength have piqued my interest. I've been waiting for you, as I want us to exchange some moves."

A challenge!

Surprisingly, the Heavenly Yuan Sovereign refused. "I won't accept your challenge."

"Why not?"

"Because I don't want to give you any chances!" The Heavenly Yuan Sovereign smirked and roared, "Attack!"

At the Heavenly Yuan Sovereign's command, the supreme elites rushed toward Y Guan. A coordinated assault from all directions! The Heavenly Yuan Sovereign wasn't na?ve to accept Ye Guan's duel request. Why fight in a duel when they could gang up on him?

The three Sovereigns led the charge, and the star field seemed to become illusory as they attacked. Ye Guan's eyes narrowed into slits, and his figure suddenly became ethereal.

A myriad of sword lights erupted from within him—three Space Overlaps!

Boom!

The three Sovereigns were blasted away, and Ye Guan himself was pushed back by a few hundred meters. Before Ye Guan could stabilize himself, a spacetime rift was torn open behind him, and his hair stood on end.

Damn it! Ye Guan's heart sank. Someone had ambushed him from behind!

Boom!

Ao Qianqian activated the Ancient Heavenly Dragon Armor, protecting Ye Guan.

Boom!

A fist imprint erupted behind Ye Guan, propelling him hundreds of meters away. As he came to a stop, the Ancient Heavenly Dragon Armor disintegrated. Even more horrifying was that his fleshly body actually cracked open, spilling blood everywhere.

Ye Guan's expression turned grave. He turned and saw a black-robed middle-aged man in the distance. The black-robed middle-aged man stood with hands behind his back, and he was emitting an incredibly menacing aura that distorted the spacetime around him.

The black-robed middle-aged man was none other than Guzhen, the Clan Leader of the Ancient Clan! Guzhen waved his sleeve, and multiple spacetime rifts manifested behind him.

Soon, supreme elites walked out of those spacetime rifts, and their sheer number meant that Guzhen had brought with him the supreme elites of his entire clan.

The Ancient Clan's supreme elites were here!

The Time Reversers sighed in relief.

They wouldn't be confident in capturing Ye Guan if it weren't for the Ancient Clan. Ye Guan had been waiting for them here, so they believed that the former had some kind of strategy.

Unfortunately, any strategy was futile against absolute power.

After all, Guzhen was here along with his clan's supreme elites.

Guzhen stared indifferently at Ye Guan.

The Ancient Clan elites had their sights set on Ye Guan, leaving the latter with no room to escape. Guzhen stepped forward just then and swung his fist, unleashing a terrifying surge of fist intent toward Ye Guan.

Ye Guan's eyes flashed fiercely. He assumed a stance and slashed out, unleashing a sword move containing the power of four Heavenrends with maximum stacks!

Boom!

The sword lights shattered like glass as soon as they appeared, and Ye Guan was blasted away. However, Guzhen wasn't done just yet. He rushed forward with a thunderous punch, and an unstoppable fist imprint headed straight for Ye Guan.

Ye Guan's pupils constricted, and a sense of foreboding washed over him. Just as he was about to awaken his bloodlines and go mad, a ray of sword light rushed into the fray from the side.

Boom!

The sword light forced Guzhen to defend himself, forcing him to retreat at least a hundred meters away.

She's still here? Ye Guan cast an astonished gaze at the woman in front of him. "Aunt Qingqing?"

Ye Qingqing glanced at Ye Guan and said, "The disciple of the Great Daoist Brush Master is waiting for you up ahead. She'll take you to a safe place. Hurry up and go."

"Are you going to buy time for me?" asked Ye Guan.

Ye Qingqing remained silent and stared at Guzhen.

A powerful sword intent swirled around her sword, and it grew even stronger as the seconds went on.

However, Ye Guan remained unmoving.

Ye Qingqing frowned and pointed out. "You're not helping me by staying here."

Ye Guan shook his head.

Ye Qingqing turned around and stared at Ye Guan.

"Do you not want to be indebted to me?" asked Ye Qingqing.

Ye Guan was silent.

"Think about the Guanxuan Universe—think about your friends and family."

Ye Guan shook his head.

A trace of annoyance fleeted across Ye Qingqing's eyes as she said, "My tongue simply slipped at the time. Are you really nursing a grudge against me because of that mistake?"

"I'm not holding a grudge against you."

"Do you even believe what you're saying right now?"

"I don't..."

Ye Qingqing sneered, but she didn't say anything.

Ye Guan pondered briefly before saying, "Aunt Qingqing, I was really happy when you decided to help me. I've always considered you as family, and I thought our feelings were mutual. I liked you, I respected you, and I revered you.

"However, your words at the time made me realize that you've never really considered me as family. Your help was just charity, and it was all because of my father as well, but..." Ye Guan shook his head and continued. "I still like and respect you."

"I didn't say that!" Ye Qingqing retorted after a moment of silence.

"You said it at the time, and I still remember it," Ye Guan reminded.

Ye Qingqing raised brows. "When did I say something like that? Little Pagoda! Did I say something like that?"

Little Pagoda: Damn it! Don’t involve me in your aunt and nephew spat!
