Chapter 299: Destroy Guanxuan Universe!
Chapter 299: Destroy Guanxuan Universe!
Ye Guan was unaware of Nalan Jia's thoughts, but he saw Nalan Jia's shy look and asked curiously, “Little Jia, what are you thinking about?”
Nalan Jia glared at him in embarrassment. “None of your business!”
Ye Guan froze, confused.
There was still a day until their marriage, but the pair chose to stay in the Ancient Desolate City to have fun. Qin Guan was around, so they didn't need to worry about the academy or the Immortal Treasures Pavilion.
They were practically inseparable, and they would often kiss and hug.
Of course, certain special things had to be reserved for the fateful night.
…
Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao was sitting cross-legged with his hands folded across his chest in the depths of the Heaven Seizing Universe's spacetime. He was exuding a powerful aura that was too overwhelming for the surrounding spacetime to endure, causing it to appear ethereal and illusory.
Ten Great Time Sovereigns stood not too far away from Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao. Each of them possessed an inscrutable aura reminiscent of the boundless ocean; they were incredibly powerful cultivators.
Behind the ten sovereigns stood the cultivators from the Heaven Seizing Clan. These cultivators also emanated a strong aura. They were the top cultivators of the Heaven Seizing Clan.
Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao opened his eyes, and the spacetime around him crumbled. A domineering wafted out of him. The ten Great Time Sovereigns couldn't withstand his aura and had to retreat a kilometer away. The other cultivators had to retreat dozens of meters away.
They all cast shocked gazes at Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao in shock.
Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao took a deep breath as he clenched his right fist. The entire Heaven Seizing World shook violently as a horrifying power engulfed the cultivators of the Heaven Seizing Clan. They all felt as if they were drowning or had fallen into a quagmire.
Their expressions grew solemn but were quickly replaced by excitement.
Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao had recovered a huge chunk of his power. Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao waved his right hand, and the pressure pervading the air vanished as if it had never appeared.
A cultivator fell to his knees and kowtowed toward him.
“Congratulations, Ancestor!” he shouted
The others hurriedly kowtowed as well.
Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao smiled before saying, “I've only recovered forty percent of my original prowess. It is nothing to celebrate about."
Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao's smile grew sinister upon recalling a certain someone.
"I'll tear that monster apart if I ever meet her again!" he growled. He could still remember how Erya had suppressed him, and he couldn't quite move on from the humiliation that he had suffered back then.
The cultivators of the Heaven Seizing Clan were thrilled to hear that Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao had only recovered forty percent of his original prowess.
It had to be known that Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao was already capable of killing Great Sovereigns despite having recovered only thirty percent of his power.
The ten percent increase seemed paltry, but the cultivators of the Heaven Seizing Clan that Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao was now capable of slaying even Great Destiny Sovereigns.
Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao asked, “What's going on with the True Universe?”
An elder from the Heaven Seizing Clan rushed to respond, “We just received news that True Universe has assembled over a million cultivators at the Xuzhen Battlefield. More and more powerful Divine Spirits are converging at the Xuzhen Battlefield as we speak.
"It seems that the True Universe is planning on attacking the Guanxuan Universe during Ye Guan's wedding!”
Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao smiled, but he frowned upon recalling something.
“We can’t be careless. The Guanxuan Universe always has reinforcements, so…”
Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao's eyes narrowed as he continued. “I've decided to bring more powerhouses with us just in case.”
“How many powerhouses will you bring, Ancestor?” asked the elder.
Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao smiled softly without saying anything, but his eyes glimmered in a sinister light. This time, he was going to destroy the Guanxuan Universe!
...
Guanxuan Universe, Nanzhou.
After spending a day at the Guanxuan Academy, Ye Guan brought Nalan Jia to the Ancient Desolate City.
The two were shocked upon their return. The Ancient Desolate City had undergone a tremendous transformation! The entire Ancient Desolate City had expanded a hundredfold compared to before, and the surrounding mountains were leveled.
The city walls were almost thirty meters tall, and the walls were covered in red festive banners with the word Happiness emblazoned all over them. The city's skyscrapers had increased, and every tall building had large red lanterns emblazoned with auspicious characters.
The entire city gave off a festive air.
There was also a large red carpet that stretched from the city entrance to the Ye Residence. The Ye Residence had also undergone a tremendous transformation, expanding more than a hundred times and occupying the best position in the city.
Up on the clouds, Ye Guan and Nalan Jia stared in shock at Ancient Desolate City.
Was this the power of money? Money was truly terrifying!
Ye Guan and Nalan Jia hadn't expected that in less than two days, the entire Ancient Desolate City would undergo such a drastic change. They exchanged glances and smiled.
Ye Guan brought Nalan Jia to the Ye Residence. There were over ten thousand people in the residence, and they were all moving about with smiles on their faces. The Immortal Treasures Pavilion had just paid them their remuneration, and the payment they received was ten times more than the promised amount.
The clan members rushed to greet Ye Guan and Nalan Jia upon seeing them.
Ye Guan smiled at them and said, “Please don't mind us, and continue with what you've been doing!”
The clan members courteously left the couple alone.
Ye Guan soon brought Nalan Jia to where he used to live, and Ye Guan was stunned to see that the tiny house he had been staying at had transformed into a massive house. It was so massive that it was bigger than the entire Ye Residence before the makeover.
I really feel like a nouveau riche… Ye Guan shook his head and smiled.
He still ended up underestimating the power of money.
They entered the house and saw that the interior was renovated, and they soon stumbled upon a huge bed. There was a brilliant red blanket on the bed, and a painting depicting Ye Guan and Nalan Jia standing side by side was hanging above the bed.
Ye Guan's curiosity was piqued. “What kind of custom is this?”
Little Pagoda responded, “It's a custom from the Milky Way, and your mother is from Milky Way.”
Ye Guan nodded lightly as he looked around. He swept his gaze across the balloons floating around the room. Ye Guan had to admit that the sight looked bizarre—no, innovative to him.
Ye Guan turned to look at Nalan Jia and asked, "Do you like it?"
Nalan Jia's face lit up with a smile. "I love it!"
Ye Guan chuckled, leading Nalan Jia to the bedside. As they looked around the bedroom, Ye Guan's heart felt warm. It seems that Mother has put a lot of effort into this.
Just then, a woman walked into the bedroom.
Ye Guan smiled and exclaimed, “Mother!”
Qin Guan smiled and said, "Oh, you're back?”
Ye Guan nodded. “Yes!”
Qin Guan walked up to the two of them and smiled, “Tomorrow is your wedding day. According to our customs, Little Jia should be at the Nalan Clan before we head over to ask for her hand. So you cannot stay together tonight.”
Ye Guan smiled. “All right.”
Nalan Jia also nodded. “Okay!”
Qin Guan held Nalan Jia’s hand and smiled, “You don't have to worry about anything; I've made all the necessary arrangements."
"Okay." Nalan Jia nodded again and said, “I'll do what you say."
"Great." Qin Guan grinned. Her eyes then landed on Ye Guan, and she said, “Walk with me, I have something to tell you.”
Ye Guan nodded, “Okay.”
Nalan Jia said, “Then, I will return to the Nalan—”
Qin Guan shook her head and smiled. She grabbed Nalan Jia's hand and said, “You're no outsider, so why are you trying to leave? Let’s take a stroll as a family!”
As a family. Nalan Jia smiled, and her face flushed red.
The three left the room and walked outside until they reached a lakeside.
Qin Guan stood in the middle and held both of their hands. “I know that we've placed immense pressure on both of you. We've left you to manage the Guanxuan Academy and the Immortal Treasures Pavilion, after all. In addition, we're making you fight the True Universe as well. Unfortunately, we simply had no choice.
"Is there something you've been hiding from us, Mother?" Ye Guan asked.
"Yes." Qin Guan nodded and said, “It's a complicated matter; it's much more complicated than what your father and I had imagined.”
Ye Guan frowned slightly, “Is it about the True God?”
Qin Guan replied, “The True God is only a part of it. The biggest reason is the Great Daoist Brush Master's arrangement.”
Ye Guan sounded puzzled as he asked, “Arrangement?”
"Yes," Qin Guan said with a nod. She then turned to Ye Guan and stared deeply at him before saying, "You have a very difficult path ahead of you.”
Ye Guan smiled. “It's okay. Little Jia and I will protect Guanxuan Universe.”
Qin Guan smiled and exclaimed, “I trust you both!”
Ye Guan suddenly asked, “Mother, have you ever met the True God?”
Qin Guan nodded. “Yes.”
Ye Guan asked, “What kind of person is she?”
Qin Guan said softly, “She's like your aunt…”
Ye Guan froze and went quiet.
Qin Guan smiled, “Your aunt is scary and quite extreme. Other than your father, everyone else is a mere ant in her eyes. I'm not exaggerating it. She really thinks that way.
"She's also very fierce and decisive. Once left with no other choice, she becomes exceedingly ruthless to the point of even killing herself in exchange for power!"
Ye Guan was stunned. He shook his head with a smile and muttered, “That's…”
Qin Guan said, "Your aunt, your grandfather, and your uncle, whom you haven't met yet, are at odds with each other. They've been itching to fight each other, and they finally no longer have to hold back because your father has finally taken that step."
"Things have gotten really troublesome. As we speak, they're fighting beyond the periphery of the universes, but the shockwaves of their moves alone are enough to obliterate universes. In fact, their fighting has been causing the constant collapse of the universes' boundary.
"If it weren't for you and your father, the Guanxuan Universe and the True Universe would have been annihilated long ago," Qin Guan said.
The universes' boundary is constantly collapsing? Ye Guan was stupefied. What are they doing? Are they trying to expand the universes?
Qin Guan looked at Ye Guan and said confidently, “I'm sure you know that the True God has been suppressing the True Universe’s tribulation.”
Ye Guan nodded. “Yes.”
Qin Guan let out a sigh.
Ye Guan asked, “What is the issue?”
Qin Guan smiled and said, “Your father and I are the most worried about the Great Daoist Brush Master rather than the True God. It's also the reason your father had asked your aunt to protect you.”
“How about…" Ye Guan trailed off, seemingly hesitating before continuing. "How about we move decisively and kill the Great Daoist Brush Master? That way, we'll be uprooting the problem by its roots, which will prevent future issues."
Little Pagoda had no idea what to say upon hearing that.
