Chapter 518: If You Weren't My Father's Sister
Little Pagoda was dumbfounded. He dared not to speak, much less reply.
Ye Guan was at a loss for words as well. Aunt Qingqing is really trying to turn the tables on me.
"Isn't it normal for people to make mistakes in the heat of passion?" Ye Qingqing asked.
Ye Guan was silent.
"I'll make your father apologize to you later," Ye Qingqing said.
Ye Guan and Ye Xuan: What?
Ye Qingqing stared nonchalantly at Ye Guan. "Is that acceptable?"
Ye Guan shook his head with a smile. He wasn't genuinely upset. Ye Qingqing's tongue was just too sharp for him to handle. Of course, Ye Guan understood that Ye Qingqing's tongue was only sharp for a select few people.
Ye Guan truly had no intentions of changing Ye Qingqing's attitude, as that was a feat that was more challenging than defeating her.
"Aunt Qingqing, let's team up and escape," Ye Guan suggested with a smile.
However, Ye Qingqing shook her head slightly. She turned to look at Guzhen in the distance, who had chosen to refrain from making a move. Why? He was waiting as well—waiting for reinforcements capable of contending with Ye Qingqing!
Guzhen had received information about Ye Qingqing, so he was aware of the latter's power. Of course, Guzhen would still make a move if Ye Guan attempted to escape.
Ye Guan walked up to Ye Qingqing and said, "They're waiting for reinforcement."
Ye Qingqing nodded.
Ye Guan asked, "Do we have reinforcements?"
“Yes.”
Ye Guan hurriedly asked, "Who?"
"Erya and Little White!"
"Shit!" Ye Guan cursed unknowingly, and his expression as his heart plummeted into the abyss.
The good news was that they would have reinforcements. The bad news was that their reinforcements were Erya and Little White!
Erya was incredibly strong, so she could certainly fight many opponents on her own.
In addition, Ye Guan had yet to see her transforming into her true form, and he reckoned that Erya was invincible while in her true form.
Meanwhile, Little White was the ultimate support character. In addition to assisting Ye Guan, she could also supply him with unlimited divine items. Unfortunately, Erya and Little White weren't exactly the most dependable duo.
Ye Guan reckoned that the two had ended up getting distracted and had wandered off somewhere. Otherwise, there would be no explanation as to why it was taking them such a long time to reinforce Ye Guan!
"Let's go and escape together," Ye Qingqing suggested, knowing that Ye Guan wouldn't let her stay here and buy time for him.
Ye Guan promptly nodded. "All right!"
Ye Qingqing took a step forward, and a mighty sword force swept out from her. A mysterious force enveloped the nearby supreme elites.
Sword Domain!
A grim light flashed in Guzhen's eyes, and he unknowingly clenched his hands behind his back. Meanwhile, the Time Reversers tensed up and released their own auras to counter Ye Qingqing's sword domain and sword force.
Ye Qingqing suddenly moved, swinging her sword with a roar.
A massive wave of sword light burst forth from the tip of her sword.
The Time Reversers' expressions changed drastically, and they all sprang into action.
Rumble!
The sword light forced the supreme elites to retreat, and even Guzhen had to retreat several hundred meters away.
While they were retreating, Ye Qingqing grabbed Ye Guan's arm and transformed into a streak of sword light that shot into the sky. She twisted her wrist, and a spacetime rift was carved open. Just as they were about to enter the spacetime created, an ominous aura swept toward them from behind.
Guzhen!
Ye Qingqing turned to Ye Guan and said, "Go in first, and just go straight ahead. There's someone waiting for you up ahead."
Smack!
Ye Qingqing smacked Ye Guan's back without waiting for the latter's reply.
Boom!
Ye Guan flew into the Time River.
Ye Qingqing turned around with her sword in hand and charged at Guzhen.
Boom!
Guzhen took the brunt of Ye Qingqing's sword attack, and he flew hundreds of meters away. The Time Reversers were about to chase after Ye Guan, but Guzhen roared, "Kill her first!"
Guzhen realized that they had to kill Ye Qingqing first. Otherwise, she'd keep on intervening, preventing them from making quick work of Ye Guan.
The Time Reversers hesitated briefly at Guzhen's command before turning around and rushing toward Ye Qingqing. They were a bit resentful of Ye Qingqing as well, and they couldn't wait to vent their frustration.
Kaboom!
A colossal sword light burst erupted, and Ye Qingqing flew thousands of meters away. When she came to a halt, a myriad of attacks from a variety of techniques swept toward her like a tide, threatening to overwhelm her.
A glint of determination fleeted across Ye Qingqing's eyes. She gripped her sword tightly and performed a wide swing, creating a myriad of sword lights in the blink of an eye.
Boom!
The sword lights collided against a dozen or so Time Reversers, reducing them into nothingness. However, Ye Qingqing had no choice but to retreat in the face of the tsunami-like wave of attacks.
However, the Time Reversers had no plans of allowing her to take a breather.
Bam boom!
A series of deafening explosions reverberated as a myriad sword lights shattered every time Ye Qingqin swung her sword, killing more than a dozen Time Reversers at every wave.
However, Ye Qingqing still couldn't stabilize herself, and the tumultuous waves of energy from spacetime collapses weren't helping her at all. Moreover, the realm where they were fighting had long become illusory, bordering on collapse.
Ye Qingqing finally managed to come to a halt, and blood trickled down from the corner of her mouth. Before she could catch her breath, the Time Reversers charged at her once again.
Exhausted and outnumbered, Ye Qingqing's gaze remained unwavering and devoid of fear, despite the overwhelming odds. Ye Qingqing deployed her sword domain, and a kaleidoscope of sword lights erupted.
The expressions of the Time Reversers fell, but they could no longer retreat.
They had no choice but to fight with all their might to try and shatter Ye Qingqing's sword domain by brute force.
Boom!
A series of deafening explosions erupted once more, followed by heart-wrenching shrill cries. Spacetime collapsed incessantly, creating powerful shockwaves that swept those who were injured away.
Ye Qingqing was no exception, and blood dripped incessantly from the corner of her lips. Her beautiful face had become as pallid as a sheet of paper as well.
Ye Qingqing had just painstakingly stabilized herself in mid-air, but Guzhen was already flying toward her with a fist emitting a dazzling fist light. Then, he decisively swung his fist toward Ye Qingqing's face.
Guzhen wasn't going to give her any opportunity to survive!
Ye Qingqing was just too strong. She had killed dozens of them in the proverbial blink of an eye, so Guzhen knew that he had to take advantage of the opportunity to kill her while it was available.
Ye Qingqing’s eyes flashed fiercely in determination. Ignoring the extreme pain, she swung her sword forcefully toward the oncoming fist light.
She chose to confront Guzhen head-on!
Boom!
Sword light shattered into innumerable light fragments, and Guzhen was blasted away as a result. However, Ye Qingqing flew backward as well. To make matters worse, the supreme elites of the Ancient Clan and the Time Reversers were chasing after her.
Ye Qingqing clenched her fists. She still wanted to fight, but a sense of powerlessness overwhelmed her.
Was this the end?
Ye Qingqing closed her eyes, and a mixture of unwillingness and regret filled her heart. Ye Qingqing had already become strong enough to grasp the Dao, and she could go even further. Regardless, she had no regrets.
Just then, a young man appeared behind her.
The young man was none other than Ye Guan, and he had come back upon realizing that Guzhen wasn't chasing after him. He instantly saw through Guzhen's intention and realized that their plan was to dispose of Ye Qingqing first before killing him.
Thus, Ye Guan decisively turned around and returned. Ye Guan grabbed Ye Qingqing’s arm, and his figure blurred as he pulled her away. At the same time, Ye Guan swung his sword with determination, unleashing a powerful sword wave.
Unfortunately, Ye Guan's attack was too weak to halt their advance. The sword wave shattered, and a powerful pressure bored down on him.
Ye Guan decisively hopped onto his sword and flew away.
Sovereign Nan Zhu appeared next to Ye Guan and carved open a spacetime rift. The three then entered the spacetime rift and flew across the Time River as quickly as possible.
“Where do you think you're going?!” Guzhen bellowed and swung his fist, sending a fist imprint toward Ye Guan. Ye Guan was about to make a move when Jing Xue’s voice came from inside Ye Qingqing’s storage ring. “Young Master Ye, please leave first.”
Moments later, four towering statues manifested. They wielded colossal sabers that they swung toward the Time Reversers. Meanwhile, Ye Guan transformed into a streak of sword light that rushed deeper into the Time River.
Boom!
Powerful explosions echoed behind them, and the towering statues were soon reduced to ashes. However, Ye Guan had already disappeared into the Time River.
Guzhen’s expression became ugly as he roared, “Chase him!”
At his command, everyone took to the sky and entered the Time River.
...
After entering the Time River, Ye Guan handed the tiny pagoda to Sovereign Nanzhu instructing him to travel along the Time River in search of the person who was supposed to be waiting for Ye Guan.
Afterward, Ye Guan helped Ye Qingqing into the tiny pagoda and retrieved the Divine Tree of Nature. He placed the Divine Tree of Nature in Ye Qingqing's sea of consciousness, allowing the Divine Tree of Nature to heal her.
Ye Qingqing's expression soon improved.
Staring at Ye Guan, Ye Qingqing asked, "Why did you come back?"
"Why did you save me?" Ye Guan asked back.
Silence descended upon the two.
After a while, Ye Qingqing calmly asked, "Not angry at me anymore?"
"If you weren't my father's sister, I wouldn't even be bothered with you."
Ye Qingqing's brow raised, and she cast a stern look upon Ye Guan.
Ye Guan chuckled and went silent.
"Just wait until I recover, hmph!" Ye Qingqing grumbled.
Ye Guan's expression froze.
Just then, Sovereign Nan Zhu appeared inside the tiny pagoda.
"He's here!" said Sovereign Nan Zhu.
Ye Guan's expression turned serious.
