I Have A Sword

Chapter 329: You Dare Take Advantage Of Me?!

Ye Guan endured the searing pain as he stood up. He wiped the fresh blood from the corner of his mouth and then gazed toward a young woman standing not too far away from him.

The young woman possessed an elegant figure, her white dress trailing on the ground. Her face seemed covered in frost, utterly cold without a hint of emotion. She gave off the same air as a block of ice.

She was the Adjudication Sword Master!

Ye Guan was stunned. He never expected her to appear here.

Was she here to find him?

The Adjudication Sword Master locked eyes with Ye Guan.

She smiled coldly and said, "So we meet again, pathetic brat."

Ye Guan wiped the fresh blood oozing from the corner of his mouth and chuckled. "The esteemed Adjudication Sword Master of the True Universe has actually resorted to ambushes? How unexpected!"

The Adjudication Sword Master's face was full of disdain as she replied, "Ambush you? Do I need to resort to such a thing?"

Ye Guan locked eyes with the Adjudication Sword Master and said, "We have a scheduled grand battle, and it isn't time for our fight yet. Still, if you want to fight now, then why not? Come at me, then!"

Ye Guan opened his palm, creating a sword made out of his sword intent.

Despite being aware of how weak he was compared to the Adjudication Sword Master, Ye Guan had no choice but to face her. He had always preferred to stand his ground rather than back down in a situation like this.

"I'll suppress my cultivation base," the Adjudication Sword Master said, "You better not accuse me of bullying you, then.”

She flipped her palm and suppressed her cultivation base to the Peak Immortal Realm. Despite the suppression, the powerful aura radiating from her remained significantly superior to that of Ye Guan.

It was great evidence of her superiority to Ye Guan

However, Ye Guan sighed in relief.

It was a good thing that the Adjudication Sword Master had integrity.

Unexpectedly, the Adjudication Sword Master waved her sleeve, and a pill landed in front of Ye Guan.

"In the spirit of fairness, heal your injuries first. We'll duel once you've recovered," she said.

Ye Guan didn't stand on ceremony. He accepted the pill and consumed it before sitting down cross-legged to focus on healing himself.

The Adjudication Sword Master's cold gaze remained on Ye Guan; she seemed to be contemplating tearing him apart on the spot.

Just then, dozens of powerful auras swept past the Adjudication Sword Master and Ye Guan. Moments later, a group of powerhouses appeared and rushed toward them.

Xue Feng was standing at the helm of the group.

Upon seeing Ye Guan, Xue Feng exclaimed, “So you were here all along!”

He was about to make a move when he sensed something and turned his attention toward the young woman not too far away from Ye Guan.

Xue Feng's brows furrowed, and he asked, "Who are you?"

The Adjudication Sword Master didn't even bother to reply to Xue Feng.

Xue Feng examined her before saying, "I suggest you leave if you don't want any trouble."

The young woman was a paltry Peak Immortal, and Xue Feng wasn't afraid of her at all. Strength reigned supreme in this world, and many cultivators had no qualms about killing those weaker than them.

"Leave!" the Adjudication Sword Master shouted as she glared coldly at Xue Feng. "This is your one and only warning!"

Xue Feng jeered, "What a presumptuous Peak Immortal."

Just then, an old man standing next to Xue Feng chuckled. His gaze toward the young woman was thick with lust as he turned to Xue Feng and said, "She must be his lover. Why don't we capture her and humiliate her in front of Ye Guan?"

"I think that'll be a great sight to behold."

The old man's suggestion elicited laughter from the surrounding Xue Clan members.

Swoosh!

The Adjudication Sword Master vanished. A dazzling sword light streaked across the air, and the old man's expression changed drastically. Unfortunately, the Adjudication Sword Master's sword was faster than him, and he died before he could retreat.

Shwing!

A sword pierced the old man's mouth, but the young woman didn't kill him.

However, the Adjudication Sword Master wasn't done just yet.

She turned around and transformed into a blurry figure that rushed toward each and every Xue Clan member in the vicinity. In the proverbial blink of an eye, dozens of heads pervaded the air as blood dyed the ground crimson.

Xue Feng’s face changed dramatically. He stared in terror at the sword-wielding young woman before him, and he trembled incessantly as if he were a tree in the middle of tempestuous winds.

"Who... who are you?" he stammered.

The Adjudication Sword Master stared deeply at Xue Feng and said, "You're from the Xue Clan, right? Men!”

A figure clad in heavy armor suddenly appeared next to her.

The Adjudication Sword Master said, "Take these two back to the Xue Clan. Then, I want you to kill every single member of the Xue Clan right in front of them. Once you've annihilated their clan, I want you to send this man to the pigsty.

"Feed him nothing but ten kilograms of dirt every day, and make sure that he won't die. I want him to revel in ecstasy with the pigs for all eternity!"

The old man almost fainted upon hearing the young woman's command. Meanwhile, the figure clad in heavy armor promptly took him away, along with Xue Feng. Xue Feng was a powerful Great Sovereign, but he couldn't resist at all.

Once the issue was settled, the Adjudication Sword Master's gaze landed on Ye Guan once more. Her gaze was as cold as a thousand-year-old icy cavern, and the surrounding temperature seemed to drop as her eyes narrowed into slits.

Clearly, she was still annoyed by what Xue Feng and his group had done.

Finally, Ye Guan opened his eyes and stood up.

He looked at the Adjudication Sword Master in the distance and said, "Let's begin."

The Adjudication Sword Master replied, "You can use any divine items. I don't mind even if you use that divine sword."

Ye Guan smiled and said, "No, thank you."

The Adjudication Sword Master went silent. Moments later, however, her figure blurred as she turned into a streak of sword light that rushed toward Ye Guan.

The Adjudication Sword Master's sword arrived a few inches away from Ye Guan's glabella in the proverbial blink of an eye. Her sword was so fast that it left Ye Guan reeling from shock.

Ye Guan quickly composed himself and tilted his head, narrowly avoiding the fatal strike. However, the Adjudication Sword Master had seen through his move and changed her thrust into a sweep that struck Ye Guan's shoulder.

Boom!

Ye Guan flew dozens of meters away. Before he could come to a stop, the Adjudication Sword Master was already in front of him. She decisively thrust her sword toward Ye Guan's forehead.

However, Ye Guan was unafraid. He thrust his sword toward the Adjudication Sword Master's sword.

Crackle!

The sword lights shattered, and Ye Guan was blasted away. The Adjudication Sword Master didn't give him any time to breathe as she sent another sword attack.

Ye Guan's eyes narrowed. He raised his hand and thrust his sword, performing a sword thrust emblazoned with Unbeatable.

Boom!

A powerful explosion of sword light briefly blinded everyone. The Adjudication Sword Master retreated a few dozen meters away. She soon came to a halt and glared at Ye Guan.

"Unbeatable!" she growled.

Ye Guan wiped the blood from the corner of his lips and stared deeply at the Adjudication Sword Master. The latter was staring at him with a hint of astonishment in her eyes.

It wasn't strange that she was so shocked—Ye Guan's swordsmanship had already transcended ephemerality, and he had also comprehended the final move of the Unbeatable Fist Art that his older sister had left behind.

Swoosh!

Ye Guan suddenly vanished.

The Adjudication Sword Master also disappeared, albeit a beat later than Ye Guan.

Soon, a cacophony of shrill noises pervaded the air as sparks flew everywhere.

The two moved at incredible speeds, and every collision between their sword lights would generate a light so bright that it briefly blinded everyone, making it impossible to track their movements.

However, Ye Guan was clearly being suppressed. His fleshly body was already riddled with wounds, but he had yet to inflict even a single scratch on the Adjudication Sword Master.

She had perfectly blocked or dodged Ye Guan's attacks.

They were on the same cultivation base, but there was still a significant gap in their strength.

Clang!

Ye Guan staggered backward. Before he could find his balance, the Adjudication Sword Master appeared in front of him.

Ye Guan hurriedly raised his sword in front of him to block the oncoming downward slash.

Clang!

Ye Guan was blown away. As usual, the Adjudication Sword Master gave chase and slashed out with her sword once she got close enough to Ye Guan. The Adjudication Sword Master was completely dominating Ye Guan, forcing him to keep on defending himself against the former's lethal attacks

Clang!

The Adjudication Sword Master's sword struck Ye Guan's sword. Ye Guan managed to block the majority of the force behind the blow, but he was still blasted away by the impact.

While he was in mid-air, the mysterious lady said, "She's using Sword Steps against you. Sword Steps is a famous sword art that she had made by herself. The sword art contains twelve steps in total, and each step has a certain sword move.

"Every single sword move flows like water to the other, and it is an incessant stream of powerful sword moves. She just has to suppress her enemy on the first sword move, and her enemy will no longer be able to move nor retaliate until they die."

Just then, a sword flew toward Ye Guan. Ye Guan held up his sword diagonally to block the attack, and he shifted the trajectory of the latter's sword ever so slightly to the side when their swords made contact.

As a result, his neck was spared, but his left shoulder was pierced. Ye Guan decisively abandoned his sword. He endured the sharp pain that shot up to his brain from his left shoulder to unleash a powerful strike powered by the entirety of his cultivation base.

World Devastation Art!

The punch struck the Adjudication Sword Master's stomach.

Boom!

Both Ye Guan and the Adjudication Sword Master went flying.

It took the Adjudication Sword Master a hundred meters before she finally came to a halt. She looked up toward Ye Guan in the distance and saw that Ye Guan had unexpectedly taken a step forward toward her.

It was a step accompanied by a sword that slashed out toward the Adjudication Sword Master.

Each step was a sword!

The Adjudication Sword Master's eyes narrowed into slits. She thrust her sword forward to face Ye Guan's sword head-on. She had quickly arrived at a decision, knowing that her overall strength was far higher than Ye Guan's overall prowess.

All of a sudden, the sword in Ye Guan's hand vanished.

The Adjudication Sword Master's sword pierced his abdomen, but the gap had narrowed between them, allowing Ye Guan to grab the Adjudication Sword Master and slam her forcefully to the ground.

The Adjudication Sword Master was both surprised and furious the moment she found herself in Ye Guan's arms. Before she could react, however, she felt a sharp pain in her back.

Ye Guan then slammed his head into her face, leaving both of them in a daze. They were swordsmen rather than Physique Cultivators, so their stamina wasn't that high.

The Adjudication Sword Master attempted to break free, but Ye Guan had no plans of letting her escape. He knew that he would be at a disadvantage if he were to let go of the Adjudication Sword Master. Ye Guan clung to the Adjudication Sword Master as the two rolled like crazy on the ground.

Just then, Ye Guan bent down and bit the Adjudication Sword Master's neck, but the Adjudication Sword Master was faster than him. Having seen through his intentions, the Adjudication Sword Master beat him to the chase and bit Ye Guan's neck first.

The two froze and went silent as they stared at each other in disbelief.

Moments later, their killing intent surged crazily as they struggled fiercely for supremacy. This was a fight to the death, and one of them would die today!

Rumble!

A low rumbling suddenly echoed. A black vortex appeared not too far away from the two, and a terrifying suction force sent them tumbling into the black vortex. A few moments later, Ye Guan and the Adjudication Sword Master landed harshly to the ground. However, neither of them paid any attention to the earlier disturbance as they glared fiercely at each other.

The Adjudication Sword Master stared at Ye Guan with eyes full of killing intent. Ye Guan's gaze was fierce as well; he had enough of the Adjudication Sword Master's bullying.

Their figures were intertwined, but there was no trace of intimacy.

There was only the mutual desire to kill each other.

The Adjudication Sword Master suddenly shouted, "Let go!"

Ye Guan retorted, "No!"

Ye Guan had received a stab wound in his abdomen, so letting her go meant that he would be putting himself at her mercy.

The Adjudication Sword Master roared, "Release me!"

Ye Guan snapped, "No way!"

The Adjudication Sword Master glared at Ye Guan.

"What are you going to do if I unseal my cultivation base?”

"I won't be able to do anything, but if you do that, it only means one thing—you're a sore loser who can't accept defeat, Ye Guan replied, "Kill me if you wish, but I'm still going to look down on you even in the afterlife!"

The Adjudication Sword Master went quiet at that, but her fierce glare remained on Ye Guan.

Ye Guan didn't avoid the Adjudication Sword Master's gaze, but he actually felt a bit uneasy inside. He was scared that she might unseal her cultivation base. However, he truly had no choice at the moment but to gamble on her pride.

He had to gamble that her pride wouldn't allow her to unseal her cultivation base. They were pressed against each other, and the air between them was so thick with tension that it was palpable.

Ye Guan didn't think too much about it. He knew that he would die if he were to let go of the Adjudication Sword Master, so he held her down with all his might because his life depended on it.

Meanwhile, the Adjudication Sword Master was horrified. She couldn't unseal her cultivation base—no, her cultivation base was sealed by something else!

How could this be? The Adjudication Sword Master looked around in shock, and she realized that she had no idea where they were at the moment. Just then, she felt something unusual down below, and her expression changed drastically.

"You dare take advantage of me?!"
