I Have A Sword

Chapter 354: Pretend

An inexplicable emotion filled Nalan Jia's heart when she saw Little White's innocent gaze. She embraced her gently before jumping away.

The Great Sovereign rushed toward the pair.

Nalan Jia let go of Little White before throwing three egg-shaped objects the size of a melon.

The Great Sovereign's pupils constricted as a horrifying aura burst out of the three egg-shaped objects flying toward him. Horrified, he attempted to retreat, but alas, it was already too late for him to retreat.

Boom!

Three mushroom clouds shot up into the sky, and a terrifying shockwave swept across the battlefield. The Great Sovereign was obliterated by the combined power of the three explosions; he failed to even shriek as he was reduced to ashes.

The mushroom clouds emitted pulsing waves of scorching heat that battered the Yin Yang symbol beneath Nalan Jia and Little White's feet. The symbol soon became translucent once more. Clearly, the Yin Yang symbol was about to get snuffed out.

Fortunately, Little White restored it instantly with a wave of her tiny claw.

The vortex of profound energy that Little White had summoned with a wave of her tiny claw restored Nalan Jia's energy. Nalan Jia felt immensely grateful to Little White. She would have been a liability on this battlefield if it weren't for her.

It was no wonder Qin Guan had described Little White as a mobile healing spring.

Meanwhile, the Eternal Civilization cultivators were beyond stupefied.

A powerful Great Sovereign had just been obliterated right in front of their eyes.

The Divine Sovereigns of the Eternal Civilization felt like they were dreaming. At the same time, they cast perplexed gazes at the Nalan Jia and Little White pair in the distance. Just what were they throwing, and why were they so terrifying?

The Eternal Civilization cultivators faltered and became hesitant in their approach, which brought the battle to a lull.

Ye Guan and his group were at a huge disadvantage in numbers, but Slaughter[1] and White Skirt Destiny were extremely powerful. They were capable of mowing down Great Destiny Sovereigns in swathes.

The Great Destiny Sovereigns of the Eternal Civilization were fearful of them, so they didn't dare to fight the two in a head-on confrontation. They maintained a safe distance from them while attacking them with long-range attacks.

Regardless, they were still under a lot of pressure. They didn't dare to be negligent for even a brief moment, as the two women were capable of exploiting that fleeting gap to reap their lives.

Unfortunately, Ye Guan and his group were still struggling, as there were too many enemies for them to handle.

Just then, Jingchen turned to Ye Guan and grinned.

"Every supreme elite of the Guanxuan Universe is here, no?" he asked.

Ye Guan's eyes narrowed, and he pointed out. "So you sent men to attack the Guanxuan Universe while we're fighting here?"

Jingchen was briefly surprised by Ye Guan's astuteness, but he quickly recovered and said, "A thousand sorcerers should already be there."

Ye Guan turned to look at An Nanjing.

An Nanjing calmly said, "Don’t worry."

Ye Guan heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Senior An seemed to have a contingency plan for everything. However, Ye Guan was a bit confused as well. How come he had never noticed her contingency plan?

Meanwhile, Jingchen felt a sense of unease upon seeing An Nanjing’s reaction.

The Guanxuan Universe had seemed weak at first impression, but they actually had so many supreme elites behind the scenes. To make matters worse, each of them seemed more powerful than the last. Jingchen couldn't help but get worried that perhaps the Guanxuan Universe had more supreme elites lurking in the shadows.

Zhan Shi walked up to Jingchen and whispered, "We have more people, so there's no need for us to drag this out. If we all attack together, we can surely overpower them.”

Jingchen nodded. The Guanxuan Universe's supreme elites were extremely formidable, but there were only a handful of them. Jingchen turned to Nalan Jia and Little White before pointing at them and shouting, "Take them down first!"

Ten Great Sovereigns rushed toward Nalan Jia and Little White.

Ten Great Sovereigns!

Ye Guan's expression turned solemn. He was just about to rush over when he saw An Nanjing standing next to him. An Nanjing's expression was as calm as a placid lake with nary a hint of panic.

Erya was completely unfazed as well. Ye Guan instantly calmed down upon seeing their composure.

An Nanjing suddenly said, "Take care."

She then transformed into a streak of light that rushed toward the distant Great Time Sovereigns. There were dozens of them, but she was not afraid! A Martial Goddess would grow stronger in the face of adversity, and she was a Martial Goddess.

The Great Time Sovereigns didn't dare to underestimate her, and they quickly dispersed to fight her strategically.

Mu Niannian cast her gaze on Ye Guan and smiled.

"You better be careful," she said before turning into a streak of sword light that fleeted across the battlefield. The cultivators of the Eternal Civilization in the distance turned solemn upon seeing Mu Niannian making a beeline for them.

They didn't dare underestimate the Guanxuan Universe's supreme elites.

For some reason, the overwhelming odds against the Guanxuan Universe's supreme elites seemed unable to discourage them. Instead, they were growing stronger in the face of the overwhelming odds rather than the other way around.

Zhuang Weiran made a sidelong glance at Ye Guan. She remained quiet as she turned around and joined the fray.

Sky Maiden walked up to Ye Guan. She examined him from top to bottom before saying, "You're really more handsome than your grandfather."

With that, she turned around and charged at the Eternal Civilization's supreme elites.

Erya calmly licked her candied hawthorn while staring at Ye Guan.

Ye Guan hesitated for a moment before asking, "Can you merge with me?"

Erya shook her head decisively and said, "Merging with you will weaken me."

Ye Guan's expression stiffened. Erya was really ruthless with her words.

Erya was still licking her candied hawthorn as she mumbled, "If you find yourself in trouble later, just call out for your Granny Erya here. I'll immediately come over and help you."

With that, she turned around and gave the nearby opposing Great Sovereign an awesome knuckle sandwich.

Left all alone, Ye Guan started trembling with a pale expression.

Granny Erya?

Considering the age gap between them, there wasn't anything wrong with it.

Ye Guan suddenly recalled something, prompting him to turn around and look at Nalan Jia and Little White. Ten Great Sovereigns were flying toward them, and Nalan Jia responded by hurling five bombs at the same time.

Boom!

Five mushroom clouds took to the starry skies before converging into one supermassive mushroom cloud. The explosion created a terrifying shockwave that made the entire stretch of starry sky tremble violently.

The ten Great Sovereigns were forced to retreat.

Ye Guan was stupefied. He couldn't help but question his mother's motive for leaving such dangerous items behind.

The Yin Yang symbol at Nalan Jia’s feet flickered, seemingly about to vanish. Little White waved her tiny paw, and the Yin Yang symbol instantly stabilized.

The group of Great Sovereigns was beyond stupefied, but they soon discovered the reason Nalan Jia could keep on hurling those terrifying spiritual artifacts without any care in the world. It was all because of the Yin Yang symbol beneath her.

Jingchen was busy fighting White Skirt Destiny and Slaughter, but it only took him one glance at the Yin Yang symbol to discover that it was vital to Nalan Jia.

"Hurry up and take down that Spirit Progenitor!" he roared.

The faces of the ten Great Sovereigns became extremely ugly. Nalan Jia and Little White seemed to be the weakest on the battlefield, but Nalan Jia's spiritual artifacts were extremely powerful. They were easy to dodge, but their range was expansive.

In a nutshell, none of them dared to face her head-on.

Regardless, they knew that they had to do something soon. The strongest among the group said, "There's no way she has an infinite number of those spiritual artifacts. I'm sure she's about to run out, so we just have to let her use them up."

The nine Great Sovereigns nodded in agreement, and they rushed toward Nalan Jia once more.

Nalan Jia took out three large bombs, but a worried glint fleeted across her eyes.

Still, she threw them out.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Three deafening explosions echoed, and they gave birth to three massive mushroom clouds. The starry sky trembled violently, and the ten Great Sovereigns were once again blasted away. However, their eyes were filled with glee.

The worried glint in Nalan Jia's eyes earlier didn't escape their eyes, and they concluded that even if Nalan Jia still had more of those powerful one-time-use spiritual artifacts, it was only a matter of time before she ran out of them.

Nalan Jia's brows deeply furrowed. Her eyes were shining in determination, but there was a barely imperceptible glint of nervousness amidst that determination.

Unfortunately for her, the Great Sovereigns' senses were too sharp, and they saw through Nalan Jia's emotions. They sneered to themselves and were convinced that she was finally going to run out of bombs.

In the end, Nalan Jia reluctantly took out three egg-shaped objects the size of a watermelon.

BOOM!

The cataclysmic explosion obliterated the fleshly bodies of the two Great Sovereigns unlucky enough to be at the forefront of the charge. The rest were blasted away and were left with varying degrees of injuries.

The ten Great Sovereigns looked at each other in shock. The egg-shaped objects looked harmless, but they were strong enough to harm Great Sovereigns. To make matters worse, they contained a special energy capable of restraining Great Sovereigns.

The strongest among the group of Great Sovereigns stared deeply at Nalan Jia in the distance. Nalan Jia clenched her hands tightly with an extremely solemn look, and her clenched hands were trembling ever so slightly.

The Great Sovereigns exchanged glances, and the strongest among them spoke in a deep voice, "She must have run out of those things! Now's the time! Attack!"

He decisively rushed toward Nalan Jia. The Great Sovereigns behind him followed him closely, and they surrounded Nalan Jia in the blink of an eye. They prepared their techniques and were about to unleash them upon Nalan Jia.

However, she suddenly whipped out three large bombs.

Boom!

A deafening roar echoed, and the Great Sovereigns were helplessly flung back. They cut sorry figures in mid-air as they flew at least a few kilometers away. Two of them had their fleshly bodies annihilated, leaving them in their soul forms.

The group of Great Sovereigns were both shocked and furious.

She still had more?

They glared at Nalan Jia in the distance and saw that she was beyond pallid. Her figure swayed unsteadily, and she felt like a small deer being chased by cheetahs.

Anxiety and fear were evident in her eyes as she looked around frantically, seemingly asking for help.

Little White saw that and blinked in utter confusion.

Nalan Jia transmitted her voice to Little White. "I'm pretending to be scared! You should do it, too!"

Pretend? Little White blinked innocently for a few moments before suddenly letting out a shriek with her tiny claws covering her eyes. Afterward, she rolled backward and collapsed lifelessly to the ground.
