I Have A Sword

Ye Guan looked at Qing Zhi in astonishment. Why had she suddenly changed her tone?

At that moment, a lady walked out of the hall. She was dressed in a pale blue gown, her long hair cascading over her shoulders. Despite her stunning beauty, she radiated a cold, icy demeanor.

Seeing the lady, Qing Zhi called. "Lou Deyue, I've come to see you."

The lady named Lou Deyue glanced at her indifferently. "You never come without a reason. What is it?"

"I'm here to introduce someone. This is Ye Guan, Young Master Ye, from the Guanxuan Universe."

Lou Deyue turned her gaze to Ye Guan, frowning slightly.

Ye Guan smiled, "Lady Lou, a pleasure to meet you."

Lou Deyue didn't respond and instead looked back at Qing Zhi.

"Don't be so cold. Young Master Ye is a decent person."

Qing Zhi, unfazed, turned to Ye Guan with a smile, "Let's go in!"

Ye Guan hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Inside the hall, Ye Guan saw that it was filled with various ancient books. Lou Deyue was seated at a desk, writing something.

Qing Zhi quickly walked over to Lou Deyue and, after watching for a moment, said excitedly, "Deyue, your Shen Zhi cultivation technique is finally complete. It looks like the Primordial Spirit Clan's cultivation method will lose its title as the best in the universe."

Lou Deyue replied calmly, "The Primordial Spirit Clan's cultivation method is garbage."

Qing Zhi laughed, "Can I have a copy?"

"You can, but you have to swear not to show it to anyone in your clan. Otherwise, you'll be single forever."

Qing Zhi's face darkened, "That's a bit extreme."

Lou Deyue glanced at Qing Zhi, "Swear or not?"

"Can I at least show it to my brother?"

"No. If you show it to your brother, he'll show it to others, and eventually, your whole clan will see it."

"If you agree to let me, my brother, and Young Master Ye see it, I'll show you something that will blow your mind."

Lou Deyue scoffed, unconvinced.

"If you're not amazed, I'll bathe you for a year."

Hearing this, Ye Guan's expression turned a bit peculiar.

Lou Deyue suddenly glanced at Ye Guan from across the room, "Is he your boyfriend?"

"No, he's just a friend."

Lou Deyue frowned, "Qing Zhi, don't say I didn't warn you. You know the ridiculous rules of the Primordial Spirit Clan. If you get involved with an outsider, the consequences..."

Qing Zhi smiled, "He's really just a friend."

Lou Deyue glanced at Ye Guan again and shook her head. “This guy is too handsome. I think you might not be able to resist, so you should probably keep your distance.”

“Are you a little jealous?”

Lou Deyue immediately looked flustered and angry. “Jealous? Ridiculous…”

As she spoke, she got up and hugged Qing Zhi, playfully groping her. Ye Guan watched in bewilderment.

The two ladies were entangled, touching and grabbing each other, creating a rather suggestive scene.

All of a sudden, they seemed to remember Ye Guan’s presence and stopped, but not before he saw more than he should have.

Ye Guan couldn’t help but wonder if all girls behaved like this in private.

Lou Deyue suddenly said, “Didn’t you say you’d show me something astonishing?”

Qing Zhi smiled and glanced at Ye Guan, who understood and took both ladies into the tiny pagoda.

Little Pagoda sighed, “I’ve become nothing more than a show-off tool.”

Once inside, Lou Deyue’s expression grew serious.

Qing Zhi thoroughly enjoyed seeing Lou Deyue’s shock. For years, Lou Deyue had dismissed everything, including the Primordial Spirit Clan’s treasures, as garbage. Now, she was finally stunned.

Lou Deyue turned to Ye Guan, “Who created this space?”

“My aunt.”

“Where is she?”

“I don’t know.”

Lou Deyue frowned and Qing Zhi suddenly asked, “At the peak of your Shen Zhi Civilization, could anyone create something like this?”

Lou Deyue remained silent. Could anyone? She thought for a while and finally shook her head. Qing Zhi’s expression also turned serious, realizing she might have underestimated the power of this special space.

Lou Deyue then turned to Ye Guan, “Can I meet your aunt?”

“Honestly, I don’t know where she is.”

“Can you contact her?”

“Kind of.”

He wasn’t bluffing; he could contact his aunt if he needed to. He believed she would help him, but he wouldn’t bother her for something like this. He knew she wouldn’t be interested in meeting someone just for the sake of it.

Hearing this, Lou Deyue wanted to say something, but Qing Zhi intervened. She could tell Ye Guan wouldn’t call his aunt, and pressing him further would be impolite.

Lou Deyue realized this too, though reluctantly.

Qing Zhi suddenly said, “Deyue, we agreed earlier that if you were impressed, you would show Young Master Ye your Shen Zhi cultivation technique.”

Lou Deyue glanced at Qing Zhi, understanding her good friend’s attempt to build a bridge between her and Ye Guan. As strangers, it was hard to ask for favors. But once they became friends, everything became easier to say.

Lou Deyue understood this well. So, she handed Ye Guan the Shen Zhi cultivation technique she had written earlier. Just as Ye Guan was about to decline, Qing Zhi intercepted it with a smile and passed it to him, saying, “This is the Shen Zhi cultivation technique, currently the top cultivation method in the universe. You shouldn’t miss it.”

After hesitating for a moment, Ye Guan accepted the technique and glanced through it. With a slight smile, he remarked, “Indeed, it’s quite impressive.”

Lou Deyue furrowed her brows, “Is that all?”

Ye Guan seemed puzzled, “Isn’t it good?”

Lou Deyue stared at him intently, “Aren’t you amazed? Not even a little?”

Ye Guan’s expression stiffened. While the cultivation technique was undeniably excellent, his Universe Beholdment Skill was even better.

“What cultivation technique are you currently practicing?”

“The Universe Beholdment Skill.”

“Show me.”

Without hesitation, Ye Guan handed her a scroll. As Lou Deyue read through it, her expression changed drastically. She looked at Ye Guan sharply, “Who exactly are you?”

Ye Guan replied simply, “Ye Guan.”

Lou Deyue continued to stare at him in silence.

Qing Zhi, curious, took the scroll and skimmed through it. Her expression turned serious. Looking at Ye Guan with disbelief, she realized she had underestimated him. The Universe Beholdment Skill surpassed both the Primordial Spirit Clan’s and the Shen Zhi cultivation techniques.

But how was this possible? Both the Primordial Spirit cultivation technique and the Shen Zhi technique were considered the pinnacle of their civilizations’ cultivation methods. Now, Ye Guan’s method surpassed them both. What did this mean? It meant that Ye Guan’s civilization might be superior to both the Primordial Spirit Clan and the Shen Zhi civilization.

Shaking her head with a smile, Qing Zhi remarked, “Talent truly knows no bounds. I’ve been too narrow-minded.”

Lou Deyue continued to stare at Ye Guan without speaking, making Ye Guan feel a bit uncomfortable under her gaze.

Qing Zhi noticed and joked, “Deyue, don’t keep staring at Ye Guan like that. He’s getting embarrassed.”

“Ye Guan, may I borrow your Universe Beholdment Skill?”

“Of course.”

“Aren’t you going to set any conditions?”

“You’re Qing Zhi’s friend. Friends don’t need conditions.”

Upon hearing Ye Guan’s words, Qing Zhi glanced at him and smiled faintly.

Lou Deyue looked at Qing Zhi, then back at Ye Guan, “Thank you.”

With that, she put away the Universe Beholdment Skill.

Qing Zhi then suggested, “Deyue, Young Master Ye is also interested in your Shen Zhi Civilization. He came here to learn more about it. If you’re not busy, we can all exchange some insights. What do you think?”

“I’d like to learn from Young Master Ye as well.”

“Let’s find another place.”

Lou Deyue agreed, and the three of them left the tiny pagoda. Lou Deyue led Ye Guan and Qing Zhi to a spot in the starry sky. Not far away, there was a pavilion with a terrace. In the center of the terrace, a huge mysterious object resembling a cauldron was slowly rotating, as if receiving something.

Ye Guan looked on with curiosity.

Qing Zhi smiled and explained, “This is the Universe Mirror.”

“The Universe Mirror?”

Qing Zhi nodded slightly, then looked at Lou Deyue and said, “Deyue, why don’t you explain?”

Lou Deyue nodded, “This object is used to explore the universe, and it was what our Shen Zhi civilization used to explore the universe in the past. Its function is comparable to that of the vision of a ninety percent divinity elite.”

Ye Guan asked in a deep voice, “Can it see very far?”

Lou Deyue nodded slightly, “Yes.”

Ye Guan suddenly whispered, “Master Pagoda, can the Qingxuan Sword travel to any universe?”

The Little Pagoda replied, “In theory, yes, but you need to know the specific location.”

Ye Guan said in a deep voice, “If I use this Universe Mirror with the Qingxuan Sword, can I go wherever I want?”
