I Have A Sword-Chapter 1233: Kneel

A lady in a plain skirt, spotless and pure, exuding unparalleled gracefulness.

When Ye Guan saw her, he breathed a sigh of relief.

As expected, Zang Gang was the key to everything.

If Ye Guan had known that he would complete his task as soon as Zang Gang recovered her memories, he would have had her drink his blood a long time ago, sparing himself from all this suffering.

It was really too frustrating.

As the lady in the plain skirt stepped out, all eyes turned to her. Everyone was curious to know who she was.

The mysterious figure curled the corners of his lips. "Plain-Skirt Destiny."

Plain-Skirt Destiny?

When they heard what the mysterious figure said, the Divine Attendants were stunned. Divine Attendant Pei looked at the lady in the plain skirt and said, "You're the one backing Ye Guan, the Sword Immortal in the plain skirt."

Divine Attendant Pei had looked into this woman before. She was the one who had caused a disturbance in front of the Genesis Daoist Temple, which had caught their master's attention.

As a result, Divine Attendant Pei had been sent here to investigate the matter. Simply put, Plain-Skirt Destiny was the root of everything that had happened so far.

She was backing Ye Guan!

Upon hearing Divine Attendant Pei's words, the crowd suddenly understood.

At last, the ones backing Ye Guan had finally made an appearance!

Everyone sized up the lady in the plain skirt. On the surface, she seemed unremarkable, with nothing special about her.

Zuo Lou walked forward with a smile on his face. "Are you here to collect the bodies of Ye Guan and his sister?"

Plain-Skirt Destiny glanced at him.

Zuo Lou squinted, and his right hand slowly tightened into a fist as he quietly gathered his strength, getting ready to strike. Although she appeared to be an ordinary person, he dared not let his guard down. After all, it was always safer to be more cautious!

Plain-Skirt Destiny extended a finger. Zuo Lou's expression changed dramatically. He clenched his hands tightly, and a terrifying aura erupted from within him to gather in his fists.

Just as he was about to throw a punch…

Plain-Skirt Destiny pointed with a finger. "Kneel."

Boom!

Before Zuo Lou could react, his legs buckled, and he dropped to his knees. He was unable to stop himself.

It wasn't just Zuo Lou; everyone knelt as well.

Even the mysterious figure and the beings of the Nine Continents Domain were forced to kneel.

With just a word, she managed to suppress everyone's Dao, causing all living beings to kneel.

Everyone was stunned.

Even Ye Guan was stunned; he was also kneeling.

Plain-Skirt Destiny glanced at Zuo Lou and the others.

"I don't like it when others are standing while talking to me," she said.

Everyone looked at her as though they had seen a ghost.

Their worldview had collapsed at that moment, especially when they saw that the three Divine Attendants and the mysterious figure were kneeling as well.

Just like that, they're kneeling, too? What?

The world turned dead silent. Everyone stared at Plain-Skirt Destiny with their eyes wide open, unable to believe what they were seeing.

In the shadows, Shikigami was also kneeling on the ground. He was beyond stunned. There was a deep sense of fear in his heart. With one word, she commanded all living beings to kneel! What kind of god-like power is that? Is she Ye Guan's backer?

Shikigami could hardly accept the reality because it surpassed his understanding of the Great Dao. This was something no human being could achieve.

Meanwhile, the Divine Attendants stared wide-eyed. They felt as though they had been struck by lightning. Their minds went completely blank.

They knelt? Just like that?

They tried to resist and fight back, but it was futile. No matter how much they resisted, they couldn't stand back up. They couldn't mobilize their strength.

After the shock came fear—a deep and overwhelming fear!

Plain-Skirt Destiny's power was way beyond what they could comprehend. They had only ever felt this kind of terror from their master.

Could it be that her power was comparable to their master?

Divine Attendant Pei and the others shook their heads, rejecting this absurd idea.

How could she be comparable to their master? No one could compare to him!

Pan Ling's face turned as pale as paper. As she knelt, her eyes were fixated on Plain-Skirt Destiny…

The person who was the most terrified was, without a doubt, Zuo Lou. He never expected that she would be this frighteningly powerful. No one had even seen her make a move, and yet they were forced to kneel. This was simply outrageous!

Ye Guan called out, "Aunt…"

Plain-Skirt Destiny withdrew her gaze and turned to look at Ye Guan. "Get up."

Immediately afterward, the mysterious force surrounding Ye Guan disappeared without a trace. He quickly stood up and said, "Aunt, my sister… She…"

Plain-Skirt Destiny looked at Ye Guan but remained silent.

Under her gaze, Ye Guan suddenly felt uneasy. He clearly remembered that his aunt had once told him that she wouldn't revive anyone for his sake.

She opened her palm. In an instant, the shattered pieces of the Qingxuan Sword gathered from all directions and swiftly reassembled itself. The sword appeared in her hand, and it appeared as good as new.

The reforged Qingxuan Sword trembled slightly, as if it was trying to convey a message.

Plain-Skirt Destiny looked at the sword for a moment. After a pause, she said, "When the final square has lit up, you will have truly grown up. From then on, the path ahead will be yours to walk alone. Do you accept it?"

She stared deeply at Ye Guan.

Without thinking much about it, Ye Guan nodded. "I accept.

Plain-Skirt Destiny stared at him with piercing eyes. "I'm giving you one last chance. Now, you can choose to do nothing and let me protect you for the rest of your life, or you can choose to walk your own path. If you choose the latter, then you will walk the path by yourself from now on."

Ye Guan fell silent.

He finally understood what his aunt truly meant, and he realized that she was serious. He understood all too well how difficult the road ahead would be if he chose to walk it alone. Without his aunt and his father's protection, he feared that he would be trampled by everyone and reduced to nothing.

Choosing to do nothing?

That would mean a carefree life with no worries.

He could do whatever he wanted.

Little Pagoda suddenly said, "Walk your own path."

Ye Guan didn't expect Little Pagoda to speak up and was surprised. "Master Pagoda?"

Little Pagoda spoke seriously, "Kid, don't focus on how strong others are. In this world, you can only be a true leader if you become strong yourself. Many times, you'll lose your dignity, and you'll have to get back on your own.

"That's what truly feels satisfying. Just like in the Milky Way, your father may be rich, but that's his wealth. If he gives it to you, you can spend it. If he doesn't, you have to beg for it. But if you have your own money, you can spend it however you like. Do you understand?"

After witnessing everything that had happened, Little Pagoda understood one thing—the dignity one had lost could only be reclaimed by oneself, and true satisfaction meant reclaiming one's lost dignity.

Ye Guan paused for a moment to reflect and nodded. "I understand."

He then looked at Plain-Skirt Destiny and smiled. "Aunt, from now on, I'll walk my own path."

"Are you sure?"

"I'm sure!"

Master Pagoda was correct. It didn't matter how strong others were.

Ye Guan could only rule by becoming strong himself.

Upon hearing Ye Guan's decision, Plain-Skirt Destiny nodded. Without saying anything, she pointed a finger at the Qingxuan Sword in her hand.

Buzz!

A sword cry resounded throughout the entire Nine Continents Domain.

The final square was lit!

When it was lit, an invisible sword energy suppressed everything.

Everyone was horrified.

Divine Attendant Pei and the others stared incredulously at the Qingxuan Sword in Plain-Skirt Destiny's hand. The sword had already caused them so much hardship, and they thought it was an incredibly formidable weapon.

However, it had just become even more powerful.

How much more powerful could it become? It was absurd!

Plain-Skirt Destiny handed the Qingxuan Sword to Ye Guan. When he caught the sword, his eyes suddenly widened. A terrifying sword intent erupted from his body, soaring into the sky and piercing through the deep heavens.

The sword intent broke through his own limits. Its powerful aura surpassed even the level of the Supreme Ancestor Realm, and it was rapidly becoming more powerful. The immense pressure caused everyone to feel suffocated. They were horrified!

Furthermore, Ye Guan's sword intent also underwent a significant change. His Sword Dao had leveled up!

Ye Guan's cultivation base and Sword Dao had undergone a profound transformation.

Everyone stared at him as if they were staring at a monster. How could he keep on improving?

Ye Guan gripped the Qingxuan Sword tightly in both hands. He could feel his sword intent going through an earth-shattering change.

A transformation!

Ye Guan was filled with excitement. Now, those in the Supreme Ancestor Realm felt like ants in comparison to him.

The feeling of invincibility! It had been a while since he reveled in this sensation!

Ye Guan forced himself to suppress the excitement and exhilaration in his heart. He focused on feeling the changes in his sword intent.

He wasn't sure how much time had passed, but eventually, he opened his palm. A sword intent began condensed in his hand. When the sword intent manifested, another sword cry erupted into the sky, resounding across the Nine Continents Domain.

Every sword within the Nine Continents Domain trembled incessantly and bowed in submission.

Tens of thousands of swords bowed before one sword.

Ye Guan opened his eyes and looked at the sword intent in front of him. It was indistinguishable from the Qingxuan Sword.

He had truly mastered his Sword Dao!

Ye Guan seemed to have thought of something. He quickly took out the tiny pagoda and called out, "Aunt, Master Pagoda…"

Little Pagoda was touched. "I'm glad that you remembered me, you little brat."

Plain-Skirt Destiny glanced at Little Pagoda. She took it from Ye Guan and gently tapped it.

Boom!

Little Pagoda trembled violently, and a golden light shot up from his core, soaring to the sky. The golden light turned into a faint purple color. At the top of the pagoda, a sword-shaped rune formed.

Just as the tip of the sword was about to appear, Plain-Skirt Destiny withdrew her hand.

Ye Guan looked at her with confusion.

"Let him cultivate the rest," Plain-Skirt Destiny explained calmly.

Ye Guan was speechless.

Little Pagoda, however, was exhilarated. "Good, good! I'm more than happy! I'm going to be invincible now…"

Plain-Skirt Destiny then looked at Zang Gang, who was also looking back at her. She gave a slight smile and said, "What about him?"

"I'm busy."

Zang Gang snorted lightly.

Plain-Skirt Destiny explained, "He knows you well. You don't like others interfering with your affairs, which is why he didn't intervene back then."

Zang Gang fell silent for a long while before softly responding, "I don't blame him."

Plain-Skirt Destiny then turned to Ye Guan. "I'm leaving."

"Aunt, wait. My sister…"

"She won't die."

With that, she turned her gaze to the mysterious figure.

Plain-Skirt Destiny disappeared along with Zang Gang.

Upon her departure, everyone could move once more. Zuo Lou and the others stood up quickly, and when they looked at Ye Guan, their eyes were full of fear.

They had originally thought that Ye Guan did not have powerful people backing him, but when they witnessed Plain-Skirt Destiny's terrifying might, they realized that Ye Guan's background was nothing simple.

They were careless!

"Evil beast!" A roar suddenly resounded throughout the heavens and the earth. A middle-aged man appeared; he was none other than Shikigami.

Everyone looked at him in confusion.

Shikigami pointed at Elder Gu. "You evil beast! You actually took advantage of my absence to do such a wicked thing. Young Master Ye has no grudges against my Shikigami Mercenary Group. Why were you targeting him?"

Elder Gu looked at him in disbelief and was about to speak when Shikigami threw a punch.

Bam!

Elder Gu was punched to death on the spot before he could even explain.

His fleshly body was obliterated as well.

Everyone was shocked.

Shikigami then turned to Ye Guan and bowed deeply. "Young Lord Ye, I'm really sorry. He took advantage of my retreat and brought people to target you. He deserves to die, and I am also to blame. Please accept this little gift from us…"

A storage ring suddenly toward Ye Guan. There were a billion Pure-grade Immortal Essence Crystals inside.

Ye Guan took a look at him and accepted the gift. He put the ring away and asked, "Is there anything else?"

Shikigami was relieved. He quickly took out another storage ring and handed it to Ye Guan. Inside, there were half a billion Pure-grade Immortal Essence Crystals."

Ye Guan put the ring away.

Shikigami was relieved once more. He bowed deeply to Ye Guan and said, "Young Lord Ye, from now on, we will not hesitate to fight to the death for you."

With that, he bowed deeply once more and disappeared.

Of course, he wouldn't die for Ye Guan.

Indeed, Plain-Skirt Destiny was terrifying, but the Genesis Daoist Temple was not a pushover. Withdrawing was the best option for now.

Meanwhile, Pan Ling suddenly appeared in front of Ye Guan. She looked at Ye Guan and bowed. "Young Lord Ye, I'm sorry for what happened. I hope—"

Slash!

Ye Guan suddenly swung his sword.

Swish!

Pan Ling's head flew to the skies, and blood immediately poured out of the wound.

Ye Guan took a look at her flying head and calmly remarked, "I forgive you."
