Chapter 572: Sisters Protection

Chapter 572: Sister's Protection

Ye Guan swept Nalan Jia into his arms, twirling her around as he burst out laughing.

Nalan Jia's cheeks turned pink, which made her look bashful yet beautiful.

After a moment, Ye Guan set her down. With his eyes sparkling, he asked, "Is this from last time?"

Nalan Jia shot him a shy glare, her cheeks flushing even more.

Ye Guan chuckled and pulled her close.

Nalan Jia nestled against him, whispering softly, "With the Past Clan gone, there's much to do here. I have to stay and assist Mother."

Ye Guan nodded in understanding. "Mm."

Qin Guan certainly needed their help right now.

In the vast Time River, countless unknown worlds awaited exploration. Qin Guan intended to integrate all of them into the Guanxuan Universe.

Opposition?

Within the eons of time, no force dared challenge the Guanxuan Universe.

After a tender night with Nalan Jia, Ye Guan went into the True Universe the next day.

He was here for Cishu, but Cirou and Cijing were present as well.

"Heading to the Divine Academy?" Cirou asked.

Ye Guan nodded. "Yes."

"To the Old Era?"

Another nod from Ye Guan.

"The Old Era..."

If any force could pose a threat to the Guanxuan Universe, it would be the Temple of the Gods and the Old Era.

Ye Guan reassured her with a smile. "Don't worry. I'm going to the Old Era to learn about them.”

The First God—a figure revered even by the Great Daoist Brush Master—had to be an extraordinary being. Ye Guan aimed to learn more about him while also becoming stronger.

Cirou just nodded silently in reply.

"Big Sister..." Cishu trailed off.

Ye Guan grasped her hand and offered a reassuring smile. "Don't worry. She'll be fine."

Holding onto his hand, Cishu softly whispered, "I'm not trying to pressure you. I'm just really worried about her..."

"I get it." After glancing at the trio, Ye Guan added, "Don’t worry about Sister Zhen. I'll handle it. Trust me."

After a brief pause, he broached another topic. "Regarding the relationship between the True Universe and the Guanxuan Universe..."

"Don't worry about those matters," Cirou gently interjected. "Your mother and I will handle them."

Surprised, Ye Guan looked at her. "My mother?"

An awkward smile graced Cirou's lips.

Ye Guan held Cirou's hand and grinned. "Ours."

He had to take this seriously. If he didn't, Qin Guan definitely would. He couldn't afford to be careless.

Observing his earnest expression, Cirou nodded slightly.

Afterward, Ye Guan turned to Cijing.

Cijing simply raised an eyebrow at him. "What are you looking at?"

He stood up and hugged her, then Cirou and Cishu. "I'm off."

Ye Guan then decisively turned away and left. He showed no signs of hesitation.

The immense pressure on him left no time for romance. He had the Evil Dao and the Clan Leader of the Past Clan to worry about.

Romance? Love? He couldn't afford to think about those right now. All he wanted was to boost his strength.

Seeing Ye Guan's resolute departure, Cijing furrowed her brows. She wanted to say something but found herself speechless.

"He's grown up," Cirou softly murmured.

Cijing didn't say anything, but she agreed.

“I want to go to the Tribulation Realm to see Big Sister," Cirou suddenly said.

Cishu immediately grabbed her hand and shook her head. The Tribulation Realm was where Evil Dao was at. Considering their current strength, they were no match for her.

When Cirou sighed softly, Cishu explained, “The Past Clan is gone and there is no other power in the Time River that can contend with the Guanxuan Universe. There is much work to be done, and the Guanxuan Universe needs our help.”

Cirou nodded in understanding. Just as Cishu was about to continue, her brows suddenly furrowed. At the same time, she clutched her stomach.

Concerned, Cirou asked, “What’s wrong?”

This baby is being naughty." Cishu smiled. Gently caressing her belly, she chuckled. "It's almost time.”

“Is it a boy or a girl?” Cijing asked.

“You should bear a child too," Cirou teased.

“You looking to die?!” Cijing shouted and lunged at Cirou, feigning anger.

...

In the Time River, Ye Guan and Ye An journeyed together toward the Old Era.

On the way, Ye Guan took out the storage ring that Qin Guan had given him as a gift, which he hadn't gotten the chance to examine yet. What he saw inside made his heart skip a beat.

A hundred strands of Ancestral Origin were stashed away in the ring.

That was simply unbelievable.

Is Mother really this wealthy?

Ye Guan was somewhat taken aback.

These are strands of Ancestral Origin! Where did Mother get so many of them?

At that moment, Ye An glanced at Ye Guan's storage ring but said nothing.

Ye Guan hesitated for a moment, then took out another storage ring and handed it to her. "Sister."

Inside the ring were fifty strands of Ancestral Origin. They had agreed to share good things.

Ye An didn't hesitate to accept it. Although it pained Ye Guan a bit, it was alright. After all, she was his sister—a very loyal one at that.

After taking the ring, she glanced at Ye Guan. "From now on, Big Sis will always have your back."

Ye Guan nodded. Thinking he was essentially paying for protection, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile.

The siblings continued on their way.

...

Realm of the Gods.

Bishop Yuan had an extremely grim expression.

Besides him, the other major bishops and elders were also in the hall. All the core figures of the Temple of the Gods were there.

Everyone currently had somewhat unsightly expressions. After all, the Guanxuan Universe had issued them an ultimatum: surrender or die.

When had the Temple of the Gods ever suffered such humiliation?

However, upon learning that the Past Clan had been destroyed by the Guanxuan Universe, the Temple of the Gods dared not offer any resistance.

What else could they do?

Bishop Yuan was especially gloomy. He truly was at a loss now.

Surrender definitely not an option.

Would the gods even allow them to surrender?

Although the Temple of the Gods had lost to the Past Clan in the past, they had never submitted.

If they didn't surrender, they would have to confront the Guanxuan Universe head-on. There was no way they'd win, though.

The Guanxuan Universe's attitude was also very resolute, leaving no room for negotiation.

While Bishop Yuan pondered their situation, an elder suddenly walked into the temple. The elder respectfully saluted Bishop Yuan and then excitedly said, "Bishop, an oracle has come."

The participants of the meeting suddenly stood up. After millions of years without an oracle, one suddenly appeared?

Bishop Yuan exited the hall, and everyone followed right behind him. Once they were outside, a golden light descended from the sky, to which they immediately knelt.

Bishop Yuan, who was in front of them all, also slowly knelt on the ground. Feeling extremely excited, his face was filled up with emotions.

An oracle! It has been millions of years since one had appeared! Now, when the Temple of the Gods is facing a great calamity, one has been sent to us. This means that the gods haven't forgotten us. On the contrary, we've never left their minds!

After a while, a golden plaque burst out of the golden light and slowly flew toward him. He respectfully accepted the golden plaque, the contents of which stunned him.

The other bishops stared at him, their eyes full of curiosity.

After a moment, Bishop Yuan stood up and announced, "The Temple of the Gods is to leave the Realm of the Gods and evacuate to the Old Era."

The gods were abandoning the Realm of the Gods. Although Bishop Yuan was puzzled, he had no choice but to comply.

He had thought that perhaps the gods would appear and lead them into battle against the Guanxuan Universe. He certainly didn't expect them to ask their followers to abandon this realm and head to the Old Era.

Did the gods also not want to go to war with the Guanxuan Universe?

As Bishop Yuan mulled over his thoughts, a flicker of concern flashed in his eyes. Acting swiftly, he issued commands to evacuate the Realm of the Gods with the utmost urgency.

Recognizing the impossibility of evacuating everyone, they prioritized getting the core members of the Temple of the Gods and a few exceptional talents out. Regrettably, the ordinary citizens were now nothing but mere burdens to their departure plans.

Soon, a divine path materialized within the realm, allowing them to leave.

A few days later, Bishop Yuan stood before the Temple of the Gods and observed the faithful believers kneeling in the distance. Their pleas for salvation echoed in vain.

As the Temple of the Gods left, hordes of believers flocked to the scene, desperate to join the movement. Unfortunately, time was not on their side; the Guanxuan Universe allowed no delay.

Looking toward the distant expanse of space, Bishop Yuan spotted Qin Guan. Without further hesitation, he entered the divine path, which then slowly disappeared. The believers cried in despair as they were abandoned and sacrificed by the gods.

Moments later, Qin Guan arrived at the Temple of the Gods with a group of powerful beings. With serene determination, she ordered the removal of the five towering god statues.

As she turned to leave, she suddenly stopped at the doorway. “Erect a statue of my son here.”
