I Have A Sword

Chapter 519: Unleash Your Wild Side

The backup was here!

Ye Guan looked at Ye Qingqing and said, "Aunt, stay here and focus on recuperating. I’ll go out and see who our backup is."

"All right,' Ye Qingqing said, nodding. "Be careful out there."

Ye Guan nodded and turned around to leave the tiny pagoda.

Ye Qingqing closed her eyes slowly, allowing the Divine Tree of Nature to heal her.

Ye Qingqing's wounds healed at a rate visible to the naked eye.

When Ye Guan came out of the tiny pagoda, he saw a middle-aged man standing not too far away from him. Ye Guan was stunned. The middle-aged man was none other than the Boundless Master!

The Boundless Master chuckled. "Surprised to see me?"

Ye Guan nodded. "Yes."

"Let’s talk while strolling," the Boundless Master said. Then, he turned around and waved his sleeve. A spacetime rift opened and engulfed them, instantly bringing them away somewhere in space.

The two walked slowly, and the Boundless Master shattered the silence, saying, "The Great Daoist Brush Master came to see me at Blue Planet."

Ye Guan nodded, recalling the Great Daoist Brush Master's words about how he had to leave to find someone. He had to have been referring to the Boundless Master at the time.

"Senior, weren’t you unwilling..." Ye Guan trailed off.

"That was indeed the case, but I realized..." the Boundless Master trailed off, smiling. He looked at the distant end of the Time River and said, "A great man should aspire to save the vast expanse and the myriad beings."

However, Ye Guan was unconvinced. "Did the Great Daoist Brush Master offer you some benefits?"

The Boundless Master’s expression froze.

Ye Guan realized that his assumption was correct.

The Boundless Master chuckled. "Well, yes, he did indeed offer me some benefits. Anyway, we're talking about my aspiration here. Hey, what’s with that look on your face? Unlike your dad, I never lie."

Ye Guan shook his head with a smile.

The Boundless Master’s face suddenly became serious. "We’re in a dire situation. The elites from the True Universe and the Guanxuan Universe are busy fighting them, which means that we cannot count on them for help."

Ye Guan replied, "My aunt told me that Little White and Erya managed to escape their encirclement and that they're coming to assist us."

The Boundless Master looked at him blandly and said, "We can’t count on them, either. The best thing they can do for you is not to create more trouble for you to handle."

Ye Guan sighed. He really had no confidence in Little White and Erya. Those two were unreliable, as they were really carefree. Perhaps they had yet to grasp the severity of the situation, or they simply thought that regardless of what was about to happen, Ye Guan would end up surviving it.

Ye Guan sighed once again, wondering where those two brats had gone and if they had already forgotten to help him.

...

Beneath a seemingly boundless ocean was a subterranean cavern. Erya walked slowly down the cavern with a stick of candied hawthorn in hand. As usual, Little White was sitting on her shoulder with her own stick of candied hawthorn.

After a while, Little White’s eyes suddenly lit up, and she waved her paw rapidly. Erya came to a halt and looked up. A palace was standing roughly a thousand meters away from them.

The palace was massive, and its gates resembled a beast's maw waiting for its prey.

Little White gestured with her little paw towards it.

Boom!

A terrifying aura emerged from the palace. Soon, a faint light flew toward the two, and it hovered steadily before them. The faint light's identity was soon revealed; it was a purple gourd!

Little White examined it briefly before hugging it and putting it away. Erya nodded and left with Little White.

The two soon found themselves in a starry sky. Little White sensed something just then, and she pointed to the right, waving her tiny paw toward it.

Erya hesitated before saying, "I think we still have to go and rescue Ye Guan."

Little White blinked and waved her paw rapidly, trying to express something.

"He should be fine, right?" Erya asked, sounding hesitant.

Little White blinked quietly. She wasn't sure of it either. Logically speaking, however, Ye Guan ought to be fine.

"Let’s flip a coin to decide. Heads, we’ll go rescue him; tails, we’ll go retrieve that treasure before rescuing him," Erya replied.

Little White nodded. They could simply blame the count if anything were to go wrong. If An Nanjing wanted to blame them, they'd hand over the coin to her and tell her that the coin had told them to postpone Ye Guan's rescue.

Erya took out a silver coin and flicked it upward with her thumb. The coin flew up before landing steadily in her palm. They both looked at the coin and saw its head.

Heads! They looked at each other and blinked...

"How about we flip it again? Best of three?" Erya asked.

Little White had no idea what to say.

...

Ye Guan was walking down with the Boundless Master against the flow of the Time River. Eventually, he decided to return to the tiny pagoda to check up on Ye Qingqing.

Ye Guan sat quietly next to Ye Qingqing. Her wounds had healed considerably, and her cheeks had become rosy.

Ye Guan couldn't help but feel a bit scared upon recalling the fact that Ye Qingqing had almost died just to save him. If he hadn't turned back, Ye Qingqing would have died.

Ye Qingqing's eyes shot wide open.

Ye Guan hurriedly asked, "How do you feel?"

Ye Qingqing glanced at Ye Guan and said, "Your Divine Tree of Nature is really impressive. I'm recovering really fast with it."

"That’s great..."

"Who came? Was it the Boundless Master?"

"Yes."

Ye Qingqing nodded quietly.

"Aunt, I want to talk to you about something."

"What is it?" Ye Qingqing asked.

"Next time, please don’t risk your life just to save me. My father isn't going to let me off if something happens to you!"

"You don’t want anything to happen to me because you’re afraid of your father's punishment. Is that it?"

Ye Guan was dumbfounded by her response. Her way of thinking was truly unpredictable, but he hurriedly added, "Of course, I personally don’t want anything to happen to you, either."

Ye Qingqing stared silently at Ye Guan.

Ye Guan smiled wryly. He truly had no idea how to handle Ye Qingqing whenever she was irritated or angry.

After a while, Ye Qingqing said calmly, "At first, I came to help you because of your father, but it was no longer the case later on."

Ye Guan nodded slightly. "No matter what, I do not wish for anything to happen to you. Also, I hope that we'll face any obstacles together. Death isn’t a big deal, but I won't be able to live peacefully, even in the afterlife if you end up dying because of me."

"I haven't thought that far."

"Regardless, we’ll face everything together—"

"Stop nagging, all right? I’ll do whatever I feel like doing, do you understand?"

"O-okay..." Ye Guan agreed hesitantly. He still ended up relenting, as he knew of his aunt's stubborn personality. If he were to argue with her, they'd argue for a long time.

Ye Qingqing asked, "What is the Great Daoist Brush Master planning on doing?"

Ye Guan replied in a low voice, "The Boundless Master said that he’d take us to a special place; he didn't specify where exactly. He only said that it's all according to the Great Daoist Brush Master's plan."

"Okay," Ye Qingqing said with a slight nod.

Ye Guan seemed to have thought of something and suddenly tore open his clothes, revealing his muscular body.

Ye Qingqing frowned and asked, "Are you trying to unleash your wild side?"

"Huh?" Ye Guan was dumbfounded. What do you mean? Unleash my wild side?

Ye Qingqing glared coldly at Ye Guan. "I'll have you know, but I'm your aunt, so—"

"I just wanted to show you these strange patterns on me. H-how did you even end up thinking of that? Goodness..." Ye Guan was stupefied, and he suddenly felt terrified of Ye Qingqing.

Meanwhile, Ye Qingqing's face flushed red upon realizing that she had misunderstood, but she quickly composed herself and glared coldly at Ye Guan.

"Couldn’t you have said something before stripping?"

Ye Guan’s face darkened. How would I know what you were going to think?

"It's your fault!" Ye Qingqing insisted.

Ye Guan dared not speak, afraid that Ye Qingqing would reach another terrifying misunderstanding if he were to speak.

Ye Qingqing glared at Ye Guan for a while before examining his torso with a frown, but moments later, she exclaimed, "Mortal Physique!"

"Yes," Ye Guan said, nodding. "When my bloodline awakened, it began reforming my fleshly body. Aunt, do you know anything about this so-called Mortal Physique?"

"A little," Ye Qingqing replied.

"Tell me more."

"Only those with Mortal Bloodlines possess Mortal Physiques. So far, there has only been one person with a Mortal Physique."

"Plain-Skirt Aunt?"

"Yes."

"What is so special about the Mortal Physique?"

"I don’t know."

Ye Guan frowned.

Ye Qingqing explained, "It's a physique that was once unique to that woman. Aside from you, I haven’t seen anyone else with a Mortal Physique apart from her. It is unfortunate, but I think she doesn't think too highly of such a physique.

"As a result, she hasn't really done any research about it, which means she may not know that much about it as well."

Ye Guan fell silent.

Ye Qingqing stared at Ye Guan and asked, "Why are you in such a rush? Your Mortal Physique will soon be completed. Just wait a bit longer, and you’ll soon find out."

Ye Guan nodded. There was nothing much he could do right now aside from waiting, but he still couldn't help but feel really curious. If only his plain-skirt aunt have had such a physique until now, then it had to be a special and formidable physique.

Ye Guan became giddy with anticipation. Once his fleshly body was fully reformed, he'd have a great time defeating those supreme elites. Ye Guan felt more and more excited at the thought of dominating the Time Reversers.

Ye Qingqing glanced sideways at Ye Guan and asked, "How come you're so excited at the idea of obtaining a 'mortal' physique? What’s there to be excited about that?"

Ye Guan smiled and wisely chose not to retort nor provoke her.

Ye Qingqing was hot-tempered, and she was more than willing to resort to violence once angered.

"Little bastard, we’re here," said the Boundless Master from outside the tiny pagoda.

Little bastard? Ye Guan immediately frowned.
