I Have A Sword-Chapter 1261: Sword, Come!

In the midst of the ruins, Fan Shan was sitting on a stone, and her arms were wrapped around her knees. She was completely silent.

Ye Guan sat beside her.

"The old man will be fine," he whispered.

Fan Shan remained silent.

Ye Guan was about to speak again when Fan Shan suddenly looked up, revealing her bloodshot eyes.

"Grandfather is from beyond the wall, right?" she asked.

Ye Guan hesitated for a moment before nodding.

Fan Shan fell silent once more.

"Right now, the two of us are as weak as kittens. Staying with him will only bring him more trouble. He has a greater chance of surviving without us. Do you understand what I'm saying?" Ye Guan said gently.

"I understand." Fan Shan nodded. She wiped away the tears on her face and looked at Ye Guan. "Ye Guan, teach me how to cultivate."

Ye Guan ruffled her hair and smiled. "Alright."

Meanwhile, Tian Chen led Ah Weng to the front of a grand hall near the Desolate Border Wall. Two guardsstood at the entrance of the hall, and each of them held a long spear. Their auras were incredibly oppressive.

Tian Chen and Ah Weng approached the entrance of the grand hall.

However, one of the guards immediately blocked their path.

Tian Chen cupped his fists. "Brother, please announce my arrival. I would like to meet with the King."

The guard shook his head. "The King is in seclusion. No one is allowed to see him."

Tian Chen nodded and handed a scroll to the guard. "I encountered a cultivator from the Ancient Demon Clan in that small town. He was able to stealthily enter our side, which is highly unusual…

"I've written a detailed report. Please pass this to the King."

"Alright," the guard said, nodding as he accepted the scroll.

Tian Chen glanced at the depths of the hall and bowed deeply before turning around to leave with Ah Weng.

***

An hour later, Ye Guan and Fan Shan followed Tian Chen and Ah Weng out of the village.

Many people had already gathered, and they were the people from the small town. After the recent disturbance at the Desolate Border Wall, the town was scared, fearing that an attack was imminent.

As a result, many people were eager to leave.

Tian Chen, of course, couldn't take everyone with him.

He was a prince, but he didn't have that much authority.

"Sister Shan!" a voice suddenly called from behind.

Fan Shan turned around—it was Zhou Xiaoman.

Fan Shan walked over, ruffling Zhou Xiaoman's hair. "Take care of the rabbit I gave you, alright?"

"Sister Shan, they're saying that everyone in the town is going to die. Is that true?" Zhou Xiaoman asked, anxious.

Fan Shan fell silent.

Zhou Xiaoman hesitated for a moment. "I don't want to die..."

Fan Shan turned to Ye Guan, and her vision blurred as tears welled up in her eyes.

Ye Guan stood silent for a while before walking over to Fan Shan. He gently ruffled Zhou Xiaoman's hair and smiled. "For the time being, you won't die. The enemy won't strike that quickly."

"But what about in the future?" Zhou Xiaoman asked.

"Then... I can only wish you luck."

Zhou Xiaoman stared at him, puzzled.

Fan Shan shot Ye Guan a look, and then she turned to Zhou Xiaoman. "Little Man, I'll start cultivating once I'm out here. Once I become strong enough, I'll come back to save you."

Zhou Xiaoman's eyes lit up, and he chirped, "Okay!

Just then, Tian Chen stepped forward and said, "Everyone, don't worry. Those guarding the Desolate Border Wall are powerful experts."

The townspeople sighed in relief.

Tian Chen was a high-ranking official from the outside. His words held weight.

Tian Chen turned to Ye Guan. "Brother Ye, let's go."

Ye Guan nodded, and then he led Fan Shan to follow Tian Chen.

When they reached the end of the road, the air before them rippled like water.

The sight left Fan Shan stunned.

Just as they were about to pass through the strange spacetime ripple, a guard appeared and blocked their way. He bowed deeply to Tian Chen and said, "Ninth Prince."

Tian Chen smiled. "I'm taking two people out with me."

The guard seemed troubled.

"Gang Chen, you have a younger brother named Gang Ben, right?" Tian Chen asked.

The guard nodded quickly. "Yes."

Tian Chen grinned. "I need an extra bodyguard in my mansion. Your brother seems pretty capable."

The guard's face lit up with joy. He then bowed deeply. "Thank you, Ninth Prince."

Tian Chen nodded and led Ye Guan and Fan Shan away.

The guard stepped aside.

After passing through the strange spacetime ripple, they found themselves before a wide road.

Tian Chen turned to Ye Guan and smiled. "Brother Ye, this is where we part ways."

Ye Guan nodded. "We will meet again."

Tian Chen laughed. "Brother Ye, if that divine item truly recognizes me as its master in the future, you better not regret it."

"If they won't accept you as their master, then I'll compensate you in another way," replied Ye Guan with a smile.

"Hahaha!" Tian Chen laughed heartily. "Brother Ye, you really are pretty interesting. Farewell, for now."

With that, he and Ah Weng turned into streaks of golden light that disappeared into the horizon.

Fan Shan's eyes widened in astonishment. "Wow! They can really fly!"

Ye Guan chuckled and was about to respond when his expression changed drastically. The sky up ahead seemed to have exploded, and the two distant streaks of golden light plummeted toward a mountain.

Boom!

The mountain that towered several thousand meters high, shattered with a deafening boom, sending smoke and debris flying into the air.

"Not good!"

Ye Guan's face darkened. "It must be the black-robed man from before..."

Fan Shan looked at Ye Guan, and her face was pale with fear. "What should we do?"

Ye Guan looked in the distance, but all he could see was smoke—visibility was limited.

Rumble!

Several terrifying auras pervaded the distant skies.

Those auras landed violently on the mountain where Tian Chen and Ah Weng had fallen.

Ye Guan frowned. "I need to go check that out..."

"I'll go with you!" Fan Shan jumped in.

Ye Guan nodded. He didn't want to leave her behind in a place like this.

Ye Guan knew that leaving with Fan Shan was the safest option, but he could not bring himself to be completely indifferent to the current situation. If there were nothing he could do, he would leave. But

However, he still had a trump card up his sleeve.

The trump card was none other than forcibly accessing his cultivation base.

Although he would be suppressed afterward, that brief moment would allow him to make a move.

Of course, the backlash would leave him in extreme agony. However, he couldn't afford to care that much at the moment. He only hoped Tian Chen and the others were still alive.

Boom!

A streak of golden light shot up from the smoke, instantly turning the mountain into powder.

A dragon's roar also echoed throughout the firmament.

Ye Guan immediately stopped, and his eyes fixed on the sky.

He saw an illusory golden dragon circling around in the air.

Tian Chen stood at the dragon's head, and he was exuding an overwhelming dragon might.

Jie Gu, flanked by three phantoms, stood opposite Tian Chen. All of them emanated oppressive auras.

Ye Guan quickly assessed their strength. They were Supreme Ancestor Realm experts, but they were not as strong as the Divine Attendants.

Tian Chen glared at Jie Gu. "You want to keep me here."

With a raspy voice, Jie Gu replied, "A prince, and one with dragon energy at that. Of course, we cannot let you leave so easily."

"You are going to stop me?" Tian Chen sneered and clenched his fist tightly. In an instant, streaks of golden light poured out from his fist, blotting out the sun.

The four figures in black robes vanished into thin air.

Moments later, four beams of black light shot toward Tian Chen.

Boom!

An earth-shattering explosion reverberated, and heaven itself seemed to tremble beneath the cataclysmic impact. However, the heavens merely trembled; it didn't shatter.

Countless black and golden lights collided in midair, consuming everything in their path.

Tian Chen was forced back by the combined strength of the four. While he was formidable, the members of the Ancient Demon Clan had strength far superior to humans on the same cultivation base as them.

Ye Guan and Fan Shan were kilometers away from the battlefield, and they stared at the fight in disbelief.

Fan Shan had never witnessed such a battle before, so the sight was simply beyond her comprehension.

Just then, Tian Chen sensed something, and his face changed instantly. He spun around in a hurry, but one of the phantoms was already in front of him.

Shocked, Tian Chen threw a punch. His dragon energy surged forward like a tidal wave.

Boom!

The dragon energy shattered, and Tian Chen was sent flying, crashing to the ground down below.

Boom!

The ground cracked open upon impact.

Tian Chen quickly got to his feet, but another phantom rushed in front of him.

Caught off guard, he raised his arms in defense.

Boom!

Tian Chen was sent flying once more, crashing into the ground not far away from Ye Guan and Fan Shan.

Ye Guan hurriedly ran up to him and helped him up. Coughing up blood, Tian Chen's eyes widened in surprise when he saw Ye Guan.

"What are you doing here?" he asked.

"Do you have any reinforcements?" Ye Guan asked in a serious tone.

Tian Chen nodded. "I called for help when I was attacked. They'll be here within half an hour!"

However, they clearly had no thirty minutes to spare, as the enemies in black robes were already flying toward them.

Tian Chen's face darkened. "Brother Ye, you should leave. They're after me."

"You are my friend, and I don't have many friends," Ye Guan replied, patting Tian Chen on the shoulder. With that, he stood up and walked toward the oncoming enemies.

"Sword, come!" he bellowed.

Shrieeek!

A shrill sword cry reverberated, and a sword appeared in the sky before plummeting straight down.

Boom!

The phantoms and the black-robed men were obliterated in an instant.

"Shit!" Tian Chen immediately sat up, and his eyes were wide open in disbelief. "You truly are a brother of mine!"
