I Have A Sword-Chapter 1234: Sister Zhen, Im Coming!

A direct kill!

The faces of those who had been harboring thoughts of retreating or surrendering turned pale.

It was too late to surrender.

Zuo Lou and the others were caught in a dilemma.

If it were possible, Zuo Lou would do the same as what Shikigami had done and surrender, perhaps even retreat to avoid becoming more involved in the feud between the Genesis Daoist Temple and Ye Guan.

Unfortunately, he knew all too well that this was not an option.

Zuo Lou suddenly remembered his daughter's words, "The Nine Continents Master has no right to accept this Young Master Ye as a disciple..."

At the time, he had found the statement laughable, but looking back on it now, the only thing laughable was his own ignorance.

One wrong step had led to many more.

Fortunately, the situation had not yet reached a point of no return.

Zuo Lou slowly turned to look at the mysterious figure leading the group. Although the mysterious figure had knelt down earlier, Zuo Lou still sensed that the Genesis Daoist Temple likely had not played their trump card.

Otherwise, why didn’t the lady in the plain skirt immediately kill this mysterious figure and his companions?

There was definitely more to it!

With that thought, Zuo Lou felt a sense of relief.

Meanwhile, Huai Hou and the others watched the mysterious figure closely. They had no other choice. The mysterious figure and the Genesis Daoist Temple were their final hope.

After Ye Guan beheaded Pan Ling, he raised his head to look at the mysterious figure not far away. At the same time, the figure's gaze met his.

The two locked eyes for an instant, and the next moment, Ye Guan disappeared.

Swoosh!

A sword cry reverberated through the air as a cold blade arrived in front of the mysterious figure.

The mysterious figure's fingers came together, and they flicked at the sword.

Boom!

The sword light dispersed and Ye Guan was sent back to his original position. After steadying himself, he fixed his gaze on the mysterious figure, his expression serious.

The mysterious figure looked at Ye Guan. "From now on, your aunt and your father will no longer be able to help you."

"Who exactly are you?" Ye Guan glared back.

The mysterious figure glanced at him and smiled faintly. "You'll know soon enough. We'll meet again very soon."

With that, the mysterious figure turned and left.

Divine Attendant Pei and the other Divine Attendants were somewhat puzzled, but they didn’t ask further questions and followed behind them.

Zuo Lou and the others hurriedly followed along.

In the blink of an eye, Ye Guan was left standing alone in the arena.

Ye Guan stared in the direction where the mysterious figure had left and asked, “Master Pagoda, can you guess their identity?”

"It’s not important. Don’t blame me for not warning you. The road ahead will depend on the two of us. So, you need to think carefully about what comes next."

Ye Guan nodded slightly. "I understand."

Little Pagoda cautioned again, "Do you really understand? From my years of experience, I can tell you, once you get a power boost, it only lasts for about three days. So, think carefully."

“It's time to see Sister Zhen," Ye Guan suddenly muttered.

At that moment, the image of the stunningly beautiful lady flashed through his mind.

Little Pagoda suddenly asked, "Have you figured out the mysterious figure's identity?"

Ye Guan did not respond. He hopped onto his sword and vanished into the depths of the starry skies. He didn’t head to the Tribulation World. Instead, he made his way to the Zuo Clan, but the place was empty.

Zuo Lou had anticipated that Ye Guan would take revenge, so he sent word for the key members of the Zuo Clan to leave and seek refuge in the Genesis Daoist Temple.

Just as Ye Guan was about to leave, he heard footsteps echoing from behind.

Turning around, Ye Guan saw a graceful figure standing a short distance away. It was Zuo Yan.

Ye Guan was momentarily stumped.

"Miss Zuo Yan,” he greeted with a smile.

"Are we still friends?"

Ye Guan nodded.

A smile spread across Zuo Yan’s face. "Congratulations, your strength has greatly improved."

“Thank you."

"Would you be interested in exploring the vast expanse with me?"

Ye Guan was slightly taken aback by her sudden invitation.

"What do you say?" Zuo Yan asked, serious.

“I still have things to settle.”

Zuo Yan fell silent. "The vast expanse surely is vast, and it is filled with many wonders. Aren't you even a little tempted to go explore it?"

Ye Guan sensed something amiss. "What exactly are you trying to say?"

Zuo Yan fell silent once more.

Not wanting to push further, Ye Guan replied, "Miss Zuo Yan, in my heart, the Zuo Clan is my enemy, but you are my friend. Perhaps we’ll meet again someday."

With that, Ye Guan turned around to leave.

"Wait!" Zuo Yan suddenly called out.

Ye Guan turned back, puzzled.

Zuo Yan looked at him. "I have been bestowed with a gift to be able to differentiate who’s good and bad. Not only that, I can also sense the fate and destiny of a person.

"Do you know that your destiny has completely disappeared? When I first met you, your destiny was invincible, and so were you. But now, your destiny is only slightly stronger than an average genius. Do you know what that means?"

Ye Guan fell silent. Aunt was telling the truth!

"Moreover, your destiny is dissipating as well. Right now, there's almost nothing left...” Zuo Yan looked at Ye Guan, and her eyes were full of concern. "You're planning to go do something, right?"

Ye Guan nodded.

"Don’t go." She urged.

Ye Guan shook his head. "She is important to me."

Zuo Yan fell silent.

Ye Guan smiled, "Thank you, Miss Zuo Yan."

With that, he opened his palm, and a storage ring flew toward Zuo Yan.

It contained the Immortal Essence Crystals that Shikigami had given to him.

Zuo Yan was confused.

Ye Guan smiled. "I might not have another chance to spend this. Please, go and enjoy the beauty of the universe for me."

With that, he turned around to leave.

“Come with me! I can guide you through danger. I can help you avoid this calamity,” Zuo Yan yelled out, her voice trembling.

Ye Guan shook his head gently. "Sister Zhen is waiting for me."

Zuo Yan looked at him, worry etched across her face. "I have a feeling that if you go now, you might never return. My instincts have never been wrong."

Ye Guan slowly raised his head to look toward the depths of the starry skies, his voice calm but resolute. "This journey... does not require a return."

With that, he took off on his sword, vanishing into the distance.

Zuo Yan stared at the horizon, stomping in frustration. "You foolish idiot!"

Ye Guan flew across a massive star field with his sword.

Little Pagoda asked again, "You’ve figured out the identity of the mysterious person, haven’t you?"

Ye Guan nodded.

"Are you prepared?"

"Of course,” Ye Guan replied with a smile.

He looked up toward the True Universe, his voice soft but full of conviction. "Sister Zhen, I’m coming."

Soon, he vanished into the depths of the galaxy.

***

Somewhere in the Milky Way, clouds were rolling like waves, seemingly stretching out endlessly atop Mount Fanjing.

Two middle-aged men sat cross-legged before a grand hall. One of them was the Great Daoist Brush Master, and across from him sat the Boundless Master.

They were playing chess.

The Great Daoist Brush Master held a white piece between his fingers and was about to place it on the board when he frowned and turned to the horizon.

The Boundless Master took a deep swig of wine. “What’s wrong?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master stared at the sky for a long time before saying, "That punk's destiny aura has disappeared."

The Boundless Master froze.

The Great Daoist Brush Master fell silent for a while before saying, "The heavens are about to change."

“What do you mean?" The Boundless Master’s voice grew serious.

The Great Daoist Brush Master turned his attention back to the chessboard. "The disappearance of his destiny aura means..."

He looked at the Boundless Master.

A flick switched in the Boundless Master’s mind as he instantly understood what that meant. He stared at the Great Daoist Brush Master and asked, "What do you intend to do?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master said nothing but dropped the piece on the board.

"The hegemony of just one family isn't necessarily a good thing."

***

Before a small town in the Time River stood a rocking chair. A lady in a white robe was sitting in the chair; her eyes were half-closed as she cradled a doll in her arms.

She was Clan Leader Jing. Her eyes snapped open, and her gaze pierced the Time River and a myriad of star fields before falling on a certain person.

Soon, her delicate brows furrowed slightly.

A phantom appeared beside her.

The phantom bowed respectfully. "Clan Leader, I’ve gathered thirty-nine people of exceptional character. They’re all ready to enter the Guanxuan Universe at any time—"

"No need," Clan Leader Jing interrupted.

The phantom looked at her, confused.

“Hold off the recruitment, and wait."

The phantom, though puzzled, did not dare to question further and bowed deeply before retreating.

Clan Leader Jing slowly closed her eyes once more. Her right hand lightly tapped the armrest, lost in thought.

***

In True Universe, Tribulation World.

A sword light suddenly fell into Tribulation World. As the light dissipated, Ye Guan slowly emerged.

He was dressed in a simple green robe that was neat, clean, unadorned, yet immaculate.

In his left hand, he held the Qingxuan Sword.

Ye Guan gazed into the depths of Tribulation World. As compared to his last visit, the Universe Tribulation radiated an even stronger aura.

The Universe Tribulation was undergoing constant transformation every single day!

Ye Guan walked toward the depths of Tribulation World. At this moment, not only could he sense the Universe Tribulation, but he could also feel Sister Zhen’s presence.

That familiar aura...

At that instant, memories of the past flooded his mind...

The Milky Way...

That tribal village...

Ye Guan smiled.

Those days in the Milky Way were truly memorable!

It was a pity that he hadn't been able to visit them.

Just then, he stopped. A spacetime rift manifested before him, and the mysterious figure from back then appeared. Divine Attendant Pei and the other divine attendants followed closely behind them.

Ye Guan looked at the mysterious figure .His gaze calm as if he had expected to see them here.

The mysterious figure smiled. "You're alone?"

Ye Guan nodded.

"Feeling confident?"

Ye Guan chuckled. "I wanted to come a little later, but unfortunately, you wouldn’t give me the time, would you?"

The mysterious figure nodded. "Exactly."

Ye Guan slowly walked toward the mysterious figure. "I have to admit, this trap you’ve set is brilliant. It wasn’t until now that I finally understood it."

The mysterious figure smiled. "It seems you've figured out who I am."

"I didn’t expect you to have any ties to the Genesis Daoist Temple."

"Of course, I do. I’m one of the Divine Attendants of the Genesis Daoist Temple... but I’m the strongest among them."

Ye Guan stared at the mysterious figure. "Should I call you Divine Attendant Fan or Hall Master Fan?"

"Hahaha!" The mysterious figure removed her mask, revealing an astonishingly beautiful face that was laughing boisterously at Ye Guan.

The mysterious figure was none other than Fan Zhaodi!
