I Have A Sword

Chapter 50: Waiting For You



Chapter 50: Waiting For You

Everyone looked up and waited for the An Clan’s ancestor.

“Get lost!” an indifferent voice said from the depths of the galaxy where none could be heard nor seen.

“How impudent!” A roar echoed throughout the galaxy, “How dare you look down on me. You—”

A miserable and pitiful voice echoed from another part of the endless galaxy, and a head was cut off somewhere in the depths of the galaxy.

Silence returned to the galaxy, and everything was peaceful again.

Everyone looked up and was waiting for the An Clan’s ancestor, but the horrifying power suddenly receded like a wave.

The spectators were stupefied. Are they not going to come here?

Yuan Gu was in disbelief. “What…?”

Zhao Su was shocked as well. What’s going on? Where are they?

“It seems that even the heavens want you to live. You should live on,” said Master Pagoda.

Ye Guan fell silent before nodding slightly. “Okay.”

With that, he turned around to look at An Mu.

An Mu was dying, so Ye Guan decided to finish him off.

“Ugh…” An Mu groaned and died.

Today, two dragons had met their demise on the Upper Realm. Silence blanketed the wasteland, and the spectators were in disbelief.

Qingzhou’s greatest talent, An Mu, is dead, so Nanzhou is the champion!

Ye Guan took An Mu’s storage ring and stored the two dragon corpses in it.

Everyone watched as Ye Guan walked over to the first-place flag.

Ye Guan grabbed the flag and glanced at Zhao Su. “I’ll be taking this,” he said.

Nanzhou was the champion! The people of Nanzhou went crazy, and they started shouting Ye Guan’s name as if they had gone mad.

“Ye Guan!” Ye Guan had become the most popular individual in Nanzhou.

Meanwhile, Zhao Su wordlessly stared at Ye Guan.

Ye Guan suddenly declared, “I will always be a student of Nanzhou’s Guanxuan Academy. I will not become a student of the Upper Realm’s Guanxuan Academy!”

Zhao Su’s eyes widened, and she clenched her fists.

Ye Guan made a sidelong glance at Zhao Su and explained, “I do not want to be a student of an academy who only knows how to bully the weak but is afraid of the strong. I do not want to be a student of an academy that cannot uphold justice for its students.”

With that, he turned around and left. The students and elders of the Upper Realm’s Guanxuan Academy felt like they had been slapped by a searing hot palm as they sat in their seats in a daze.

The three hundred and sixty states of the Upper Realm had seen everything, so the Upper Realm’s Guanxuan Academy would never be able to recover its reputation. Zhao Su’s face was beyond pallid as her nails dug into her palms.

She had betrayed her conscience by not making a move earlier, and Ye Guan’s words were like thorns in her heart. She felt even worse because she knew that she had failed to uphold the Guanxuan Academy Rule as well.

It had been her first time facing absolute power, and she felt helpless as well as afraid to uphold the morals that a cultivator should uphold on the path of cultivation.

Courage! Courage is saying no to an absolute power while looking them in the eye.

Yuan Gu’s face was beyond pallid as well. An Mu is dead! What should I do?

An Mu was dead, so Zhongtu Divine Continent’s Guanxuan Academy no longer had a participant to represent and help them win the Destiny Contest.

Yuan Gu was also aware that Ye Guan disliked him because of his earlier actions. In other words, it was impossible to convince Ye Guan to join Zhongtu Divine Continent’s Guanxuan Academy.

Lee Wan sighed in regret as well.

She had come here to recruit Nalan Jia, but she couldn’t do that anymore.

Everyone was silent, and they all knew that this decade’s martial contest would definitely go down in history as the strangest martial contest.

Ye Guan and Siao Ge wordlessly walked down the streets toward the Siao Residence. Siao Ge’s expression was complicated as he looked at Ye Guan.

Soon, they arrived at the Siao Residence.

Ye Guan looked at Siao Ge and said, “Thank you.”

Siao Ge was confused. “Why?”

Ye Guan replied, “Thank you for stepping out when everyone else remained silent.”

Siao Ge shook his head and said, “We’re friends. You don’t have to thank me.”

Ye Guan wordlessly nodded.

Siao Shan, Song Fu, and Fei Banqing walked out to meet them.

Ye Guan saw their complicated expressions. It couldn’t be helped because they had also seen what had happened in the third round of the martial contest.

Fei Banqing walked over to Ye Guan and asked, “Is Little Jia… is she still alive?”

Ye Guan nodded. “Yes…”

Fei Banqing relaxed and exclaimed, “Good… that’s good. Let’s go, come here!”

She pulled Ye Guan into the Siao Residence.

Siao Shan walked over to Siao Ge with a smile. “I was proud of you when you stood up for him. You have done what a true man should do!”

Siao Ge shook his head slightly and said, “Father, I’m too weak. I’m going to go out and experience the world.”

Siao Shan hesitated, but he eventually nodded and said firmly, “I understand.”

Song Fu sighed at the sight. “This world is truly…”

Ye Guan locked himself in his room, and he only came out at midnight.

He sat in front of a flight of steps and looked up at the sky. He stared wordlessly at the moon while holding the scented sachet that Nalan Jia gave to him.

Fei Banqing walked and sat next to him.

“Luo Zhaoqi visited us earlier and brought Nanzhou’s prizes with her. The prizes are ten Sky-grade spiritual veins, twenty Earth-grade spiritual veins, three Immortal-rank cultivation manuals, and ten Earth-rank cultivation manuals.

”She also gave us many different spiritual treasures, and we will also receive a hundred thousand gold spiritual crystals every year…”

Fei Banqing hesitantly added, “The prizes are a lot more bountiful compared to the previous martial contests.”

Ye Guan remained silent.

Fei Banqing didn’t mind his silence and continued. “As the champion, you will receive three hundred thousand gold spiritual crystals and the one and only special enrollment slot in Zhongtu Divine Continent’s Guanxuan Academy.

”In other words, you’ll immediately become a student of Zhongtu Divine Continent’s Guanxuan Academy. If you join them, they’ll report the True Dragon Clan to the Main Academy of the Guanxuan Academy. I’m sure they’ll help you seek justice.”

Fei Banqing breathed a sigh of relief after she was done speaking. It was clear that Zhongtu Divine Continent’s Guanxuan Academy had judged that Ye Guan was worthy of their care, and they were willing to go against the True Dragon Clan for his sake.

The world was a pragmatic place. People would take care of anyone they deemed valuable, but they would not give a rat’s shit to someone they deemed useless.

“Teacher, please return those three hundred thousand gold spiritual crystals to them.”

Fei Banqing made a sidelong glance at Ye Guan and asked, “Are you not going to Zhongtu Divine Continent’s Guanxuan Academy?”

“I’m going to Zhongtu Divine Continent tomorrow, but I will not join the academy,” replied Ye Guan.

Fei Banqing went silent for quite a while before saying, “Without the Guanxuan Academy’s deterrence, the True Dragon Clan will definitely chase after you the moment you appear on the Zhongtu Divine Continent. You should—”

Ye Guan interrupted with a mutter, “My life will be up to fate. If they can’t kill me, then I will revive Little Jia and wipe the True Dragon Clan off the face of the earth one day. If I die, then it’s fine. I’ll be dying with Little Jia.”

With that, Ye Guan stood up and walked away. However, he came to a halt after recalling something. He turned around and bowed slightly toward Fei Banqing. “I’m going to Zhongtu Divine Continent now. Teacher, please take care of yourself.”

Ye Guan turned around and continued walking.

He was going to leave today rather than tomorrow.

“Little Guan!” Fei Banqing cried out.

Ye Guan turned around and looked at her.

Fei Banqing forced a smile, and her voice trembled as she asked, “Will you come back?”

Ye Guan was silent for quite a while before he responded, “I don’t know.”

With that, he finally walked away.

Fei Banqing watched as Ye Guan’s figure dissolved into the night.

“You have to come back. I’ll be waiting for you…” she muttered.

The moon was bright, but the night was cold.

Fei Banqing was left all alone in the coldness of the night.
