I Have A Sword

Chapter 71: No Longer Handsome

Ye Guan was dumbstruck because the Shenge Clan’s ancestor seemed to be easygoing and a tad bit too nice, which made him feel awkward. It sounded ridiculous, but he truly felt awkward.

Little Pagoda shook his head. He knew that Ye Guan was too kind to defeat such a shrewd woman. Now that he thought about it, his previous Young Master was also pretty kind, but his previous Young Master wouldn’t fall for Lee Ge’s scheme.

However, if Little Pagoda had to choose between Ye Guan and his previous Young Master, he would still choose to follow Ye Guan.

“I’m off, then,” said Lee Ge.

Ye Guan nodded.

There was a reason he decided to make Lee Ge owe him a favor. Little Jia!

He would inevitably visit the Undying Clan to borrow the Sword Master’s swords. It would be great if everything went smoothly, but if things went wrong, it wouldn’t be bad to have something to fall back on. Ye Guan had learned a lesson from today’s battle—it was better to have more allies than enemies.

Lee Ge smiled at Little Pagoda. “Master Pagoda, please forgive me for my transgressions.”

Little Pagoda waved his hand and said, “Forget it!”

The soft approach had always been effective on the members of the Yang Family.

Lee Ge nodded and said, “See you later, Master Pagoda.”

Moments later, she disappeared into a cloud of light green smoke. She left behind a scroll that flew toward the Shenge World. After Lee Ge’s departure, Ye Guan asked, “Why do you think she killed the powerhouses of the Shenge Clan, Master Pagoda?”

Little Pagoda replied calmly, “It’s for the sake of her dignity.”

Ye Guan was confused. “Dignity?”

Little Pagoda nodded and explained, “Someone will step out to help uphold her dignity if she doesn’t do it herself.”

Ye Guan’s gaze was deep as he stared at Little Pagoda.

What was he hiding from him?

Ye Guan eventually shook his head and erased such thoughts before turning to look at Ye Qing.

“Brother Ye Qing, let’s split the valuables here three ways. A portion will go to the Ye Clan, while the other two portions will go to you and me. What do you think?” asked Ye Guan. It seemed that he found it important to divide the spoils first before anything else.

Ye Qing smiled. “Sounds good.”

Ye Guan nodded and said, “All right, you should go ahead and rescue the others.”

Master Pagoda had told Ye Guan that Ye Xiao and the members of the Ye Clan were still alive. Ao Tian had brought them here to lure Ye Guan, so Ye Xiao’s life and the lives of the other members of the Ye Clan were important.

Ye Qing nodded before turning around and disappearing into a golden beam of light.

Ye Guan watched as Ye Qing disappeared into the horizon.

Ye Qing could no longer be seen, so Ye Guan finally relaxed and lay down on the ground. He could finally feel the intense pain coming from his exposed flesh after taking the brunt of an Ancient Heavenly Dragon’s dragon flame.

Swoosh!

Two figures streaked across the skies of the True Dragon World.

The two figures were Monk Dao and Nanling Yiyi. They rushed to the True Dragon World upon hearing about Ye Guan’s decision, but the True Dragon World was closed, so they had no choice but to stay outside and wait.

The True Dragon Clan was no more, so the seal on the True Dragon World had disappeared as well.

A sinister light flashed in Monk Dao’s eyes upon seeing Ye Guan’s miserable condition, but he suddenly came to a halt and stared wide-eyed at the scene in front of him.

Ye Guan was surrounded by multiple dragon carcasses. The True Dragon Clan… they were annihilated? Monk Dao looked as if he had been struck by lightning from out of the blue.

Little Pagoda had already entered Ye Guan’s glabella. He was still injured, so he couldn’t stay outside for an extended period of time.

Nanling Yiyi rushed over to Ye Guan. She went beyond pallid upon seeing Ye Guan’s condition.

“Junior Disciple Ye, you…” she said while quivering.

Ye Guan grinned at her and said, “I’m not going to die.”

However, Nanling Yiyi shook her head. “You’re no longer handsome!”

Ye Guan’s expression stiffened.

“Pffft!” Nanling Yiyi burst out laughing and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t feel disgusted with your current look.”

Ye Guan could only shake his head and smile.

Monk Dao had many burning questions, but he couldn’t bring himself to speak upon seeing Ye Guan’s condition.

Swoosh!

Ye Qing finally returned with Ye Xiao and the other members of the Ye Clan.

Ye Xiao and the others rushed to Ye Guan’s side. Ye Xiao’s voice trembled as he asked, “Little Guan, are you okay?”

Ye Guan smiled and said, “I’m fine.”

Ye Xiao sighed and muttered, “This is our fault… for implicating you.”

Ye Guan shook his head and said, “All of this started because of me, so this is all my fault.”

Ye Xiao shook his head and sighed once more.

“The True Dragon Clan is no more, and I’m sure the people outside already know about the True Dragon Clan’s outcome. We should go; we can’t stay here any longer.” Ye Qing pointed out. He looked at Ye Xiao and said, “Clan Leader, I’ll escort you to Nanzhou.”

Ye Xiao and the others weren’t strong enough to stay on the Zhongtu Divine Continent.

The Ye Clan also had zero foundation here, so they wouldn’t prosper even if they were to stay here.

Ye Xiao hesitated, but he eventually nodded. “All right.”

Ye Qing walked over to Ye Guan and extended a storage ring to him. “Brother Ye Guan, I have divided the spoils, and this is your portion. The storage rings of the Shenge Clan members are in that storage ring as well.”

Ye Guan nodded and accepted the storage ring.

“Be careful on your way home,” he said

Ye Qing nodded. However, he didn’t turn around to leave. He looked like he was hesitating, but he eventually made up his mind and asked, “Brother Ye Guan, are you going to aim for the Great Dao Destiny Contest?”

Ye Guan nodded. “Yes.”

Ye Qing smiled at that and said, “I’m aiming for it as well.”

Ye Guan smiled and exclaimed, “Great! It seems that I’ll have a partner when the time comes.”

Ye Qing’s smile deepened. “Brother Ye Guan, take care. I’ll see you later.”

With that, Ye Qing brought Ye Xiao and the others away.

Ye Guan’s expression was complicated as he watched them leave.

It was such a short reunion. He wanted to spend more time with them, but he knew that this wasn’t the right occasion.

Monk Dao next to him said, “We should hurry up and leave as well. I’m sure the True Dragon Clan’s annihilation has alerted the major powers of the Zhongtu Divine Continent. I think many powerhouses are on their way here.”

Ye Guan nodded and said, “Okay, let’s go.”

He still couldn’t walk, so Monk Dao had to carry him away with Nanling Yiyi.

Just a few minutes after their departure, several powerful auras appeared in the skies of the True Dragon World. The powerhouses were stupefied to see that the True Dragon World had become nothing but a wasteland.

The True Dragon Clan was annihilated?

It was too shocking of a reality that they doubted their eyes.

The news about the True Dragon Clan’s annihilation quickly spread throughout the entire Zhongtu Divine Continent. A Clan Annihilation!

The Guanxuan Law prohibited the annihilation of an entire clan, so the Zhongtu Divine Continent’s Guanxuan Academy started investigating the incident.

However, they had to stop their investigation upon hearing that the Main Guanxuan Academy had decided to send someone.

Academy Chief Lu Chaowen stood at the helm of the many tutors and members of the Zhongtu Divine Continent’s Guanxuan Academy. Their group stood at the entrance of the academy to wait for the Main Guanxuan Academy’s representative.

Soon, a woman walked out of a carriage. The woman was wearing a pristine white robe, and there was a purple string wrapped around her slender waist. Her long hair was tied up in a ponytail that reached her waist.

Her features were delicate and vivid, but she carried with her a look of superiority as she walked toward Lu Chaowen with an ancient-looking scroll in her hand. The scroll was emblazoned with the words—Guanxuan Law.

Lu Chaowen bowed respectfully.

His voice was trembling as he said, “Greetings, Representative Ye.”

The woman was none other than Representative Ye Guanzhi. She was the representative of the Main Guanxuan Academy’s Department of Arts, and she was a formidable cultivator in her own right.

The most important fact here was that she had the authority to mobilize the Guanxuan Guards. No one throughout the vast universe would dare to go against the Guanxuan Guards.

However, Ye Guanzhi’s authority wasn’t the only reason Lu Chaowen found her scary.

Lu Chaowen was fearful of her because she was the disciple of Academy Chief Shuxian, who had only accepted two disciples so far. Academy Chief Shuxian’s first disciple was Qingqiu, and Qingqiu was a legendary woman considered to be the strongest individual throughout the vast Guanxuan Universe.

Many people considered Ye Guanzhi to be Qingqiu’s peer in the talent department, which was a terrifying idea because Ye Guanzhi didn’t even look like she was above twenty years old.
