I Have A Sword-Chapter 51: Becoming a Powerful Ancestor

Chapter 51: Becoming a Powerful Ancestor

There were two ways to reach the Zhongtu Divine Continent without all the fuss. The first way was to use the teleportation array of the Guanxuan Academy. Of course, Ye Guan couldn’t take that path up to the Zhongtu Divine Continent.

In other words, Ye Guan could only choose the second way, which was through the Immortal Treasures Pavilion.

The Immortal Treasures Pavilion had hundreds of thousands of teleportation arrays in many different words. As long as one had enough money, one could go virtually anywhere.

Ye Guan headed to the Immortal Treasures Pavilion, and he saw a familiar figure outside the Immortal Treasures Pavilion.

The figure was Luo Zhaoqi.

Ye Guan wordlessly stared at her.

Luo Zhaoqi smiled and said, “I knew you would be here.”

Ye Guan calmly asked. “Do you have any business with me?”

Luo Zhaoqi nodded and said, “Yes, I’ve been waiting for you. First of all, the Academy Chief wants you to join the Guanxuan Academy. It doesn’t matter even if you join the Upper Realm or the Zhongtu Divine Continent’s Guanxuan Academy.”

Ye Guan was silent.

Luo Zhaoqi added, “The True Dragon Clan is the leader of the Demon Realm. They won’t target the Ye Clan on the Lower Realm’s Nanzhou nor the Guanxuan Academy, but it’s a different story when it comes to you.”

The True Dragon Clan wouldn’t lower themselves to go for the Ye Clan on the Lower Realm’s Nanzhou. If they were to do something as despicable as that, their reputation would plummet beyond recovery.

Things had blown up, so there were many eyes watching the True Dragon Clan’s each and every movement. Unfortunately, it wouldn’t be strange if they went after Ye Guan because the latter had killed two True Dragons.

Ye Guan stared at Luo Zhaoqi and asked, “Are you done?”

Luo Zhaoqi muttered, “My teacher wants to apologize to you. As the Academy Chief, she didn’t stand up for you at a crucial moment, so she—”

“I don’t need it.” Ye Guan interrupted and shook his head. He then turned around and headed for the Immortal Treasures Pavilion, leaving a silent Luo Zhaoqi in his wake.

Zhao Su appeared next to Luo Zhaoqi.

“Teacher…” muttered Luo Zhaoqi while staring at Zhao Su.

“I would be angry as well if I were in his shoes,” Zhao Su said.

Luo Zhaoqi shook her head, “He’s going to Zhongtu Divine Continent. The True Dragon Clan will definitely go after him. There’s no way they’re going to let him off scot-free, and they’re going to chase him until he dies.”

Zhao Su was silent.

She remained silent for quite a while before muttering, “What happened in this decade’s martial contest has severely affected the academy. The reputation that we have painstakingly established for so many years collapsed after just one mistake.”

Luo Zhaoqi didn’t know what to say. It was a horrible plight.

Zhao Su chuckled hollowly and said, “The complaint I sent to the Main Guanxuan Academy bounced back.”

Luo Zhaoqi frowned slightly.

“Did the True Dragon Clan interfere?” she asked.

Zhao Su nodded.

Luo Zhaoqu’s expression turned grim.

“How about an appeal?” she asked.

Zhao Su shook her head and said, “We’ll vanish without a trace if we were to do that and leave the Upper Realm.”

Luo Zhaoqi’s face turned ugly. She was aware that they were in danger because a mere Academy Chief from the Upper Realm would never attract the attention of the Main Guanxuan Academy.

An appeal? How naive of them to think that they could do that! Zhao Su looked in the direction of the Immortal Treasures Pavilion and muttered, “I’m sorry, there’s nothing I can do about it.”𝗯𝗲𝗱𝗻𝗼𝘃𝐞𝐥.𝗰𝗼𝐦

With that, Zhao Su turned around and left.

It seemed that not every injustice in this world could be rectified.

Luo Zhaoqi turned to look at the Immortal Treasures Pavilion and shook her head.

She might not see that young man again.

After handing over a thousand gold spiritual crystals, Ye Guan walked into the teleportation array that would bring him to the Zhongtu Divine Continent.

The teleportation array activated, and Ye Guan vanished. While waiting for his arrival, Ye Guan sat cross-legged and retrieved a few scrolls from his storage ring.

He had just bought these scrolls from the Immortal Treasures Pavilion.

The scrolls contained information about the Zhongtu Divine Continent. He had to know more about the Zhongtu Divine Continent because it seemed that he would have to stay there for a long time.

The Zhongtu Divine Continent was unimaginably huge. It consisted of three thousand worlds, and the entire Upper Realm was just one of those worlds.

The most powerful organization—even throughout such a massive world—was still the Guanxuan Academy. The Immortal Treasures Pavilion was second only to the Guanxuan Academy because of its ubiquity.

Afterward, it would be the six grand clans. The strongest of the six was the Undying Clan, followed by the Shenge Clan, the Shen Clan, the An Clan, the Li Clan,[1] and the Nanling Clan.

The two superpowers of the Demon Realm couldn’t be underestimated as well, and they were the True Dragon Clan and the Ancient Monkey Clan.

The Zhongtu Divine Continent’s history was deep, and Ye Guan also ended up reading about the Daoist Sect.

The Daoist Sect was an ancient power that had completely fallen long ago. It was rumored that they were once as powerful and as influential as the Guanxuan Academy, but for some reason, they collapsed and were replaced by the Guanxuan Academy.

Until now, no one had any idea just how the Daoist Sect collapsed.

The Zhongtu Divine Continent also had a multitude of clans and sects aside from the six grand clans, the Guanxuan Academy, and the Immortal Treasures Pavilion.

A special organization existed on the Zhongtu Divine Continent, and it was the Mercenary Union. The top mercenary group of the Mercenary Union was the Guanxuan Mercenary, and the leader of the Guanxuan Mercenary was the President of the Mercenary Union himself.

They were incredibly powerful, and it was even rumored that the leader of the Guanxuan Mercenary was an acquaintance of the Sword Master.

Ye Guan took a moment to compose himself before picking up another scroll.

The scroll had information about the Undying Clan.

It was said that the entire Undying Clan was once the Sword Master’s followers. They were almost annihilated fighting for the Sword Master’s cause, so the Sword Master helped them, and they became extremely powerful.

They decided to move to the Zhongtu Divine Continent, and they instantly became the number one clan upon arriving. It was worth mentioning that the Sword Master’s mother had come from the Undying Clan.

The Undying Clan didn’t become a part of the Guanxuan Universe’s Main Guanxuan.

They couldn’t enjoy the Great Dao Destiny Aura of the Main Guanxuan Academy, but the powerful clans of the Guanxuan Universe still respected them because of the Sword Master’s connection with them.

All these years, the Undying Clan had never done anything impactful other than fighting the top talents of the many different clans for a spot in the Guanxuan Universe’s Main Guanxuan Academy.

They were the biggest competitor in the Destiny Contest.

The Destiny Contest was held once every century, and it was ten thousand times more cruel than the Upper Realm’s decennial martial contest.

Talents from three thousand worlds would participate to try and enroll in the Main Guanxuan Academy.

To make matters worse, they would all be fighting for just one spot.

The champion would become a student of the Main Guanxuan Academy and enjoy the rumored Great Dao Destiny Aura.

The Undying Clan had been competing in the Destiny Contest for many years now, which resulted in the failure of many clans throughout the three thousand worlds of the Zhongtu Divine Continent.

The Undying Clan’s invincibility prompted the superpowers from many different worlds to frantically look for incredible talents. It was all for the sake of the Great Dao Destiny Aura.

“Master Pagoda, I don’t think the Undying Clan will just go ahead and hand over the Sword Master’s sword to me,” said Ye Guan.

Little Pagoda responded, “What are your plans?”

Ye Guan was silent for quite a while before asking, “Can you steal it for me? I’ll return once we’re done with it.”

It was Little Pagoda’s turn to go silent.

“I’m afraid I can’t do that. I won’t be able to do anything for a while,” it said.

Ye Guan sighed. Borrow it? Why would they lend it to him? Steal it? It would be impossible without Master Pagoda’s help. Snatch it openly and make a break for it? What was he? Crazy?

Even the True Dragon Clan wouldn’t dare to offend the Undying Clan, and the Undying Clan also had no reason to help someone with a bounty on his head from the True Dragon Clan.

Ye Guan was sure that the True Dragon Clan would frantically chase after him upon his arrival at the Zhongtu Divine Continent.

In other words, he was in a dire situation.

Little Pagoda asked, “What are you going to do upon arriving at the Zhongtu Divine Continent?”

It took Ye Guan quite a while to respond, “I’ll look for a backer. I can’t fight the True Dragon Clan by myself, so I need a backer. Let the old fight the old; let the young fight the young. The pressure will be too enormous for me to bear if I have to fight even the True Dragon Clan’s ancestors.”

Ye Guan closed his eyes and added, “It is impossible for me to move around without a powerful backer, so I have to work even harder. If I can’t become a powerful young master, I have no choice but to become a powerful ancestor.”

Little Pagoda didn’t know what to say.
