I Have A Sword

Chapter 719: Going Back Home

Upon hearing Qin Guan's words, Qing Lie burst into maniacal laughter. Zhen Nanxue, standing nearby, felt a bit awkward. This... Senior Qin was a bit crazy. That was the Primordial Spirit Clan! Eradicate the entire Primordial Spirit Clan? This was madness.

Qin Guan remained calm, merely glancing at the still-laughing Qing Lie.

After a moment, Qing Lie finally stopped laughing and looked at Qin Guan. "This is undoubtedly the funniest joke I've heard in tens of thousands of years."

Qin Guan opened her palm, and a mysterious weapon appeared in her hand. She pointed it toward Qing Lie and pulled on its trigger.

Boom!

A beam of light charged out of the mysterious weapon and blasted Qing Lie thousands of meters away before he could react.

When Qing Lie finally stabilized himself in mid-air, he was shocked to find that his fleshy body was severely injured and was drenched in blood.

Everyone present was stunned as well, while Zhen Nanxue was in utter disbelief.

Qing Lie stared at Qin Guan in shock. "You..."

"Little Ai," Qin Guan said, and a lady appeared next to her.

Qin Guan calmly said, "Add the Primordial Spirit Clan to the 'to-annihilate list.'"

Little Ai nodded slightly and took out a black notebook from out of nowhere. Then, she wrote down three words on one of its pages—Primordial Spirit Clan.

Qing Lie was struck by an epiphany just then. The Guanxuan Academy wasn't as easy to handle as he had imagined. I need to go back to the drawing board.

With that thought, Qing Lie made up his mind and ordered, "Retreat!"

He turned around to leave with everyone when a long spear streaked through the skies, tearing apart spacetime itself as it made a beeline for Qing Lie.

Qing Lie's pupils constricted.

BOOM!

A thunderous boom echoed as Qing Lie was blasted away, cutting a sorry figure in mid-air.

His severely injured fleshly body disintegrated upon impact, and he was reduced to nothing but his soul form.

Right as Qing Lie came to a halt in mid-air, another long spear flew toward him once again, piercing his forehead and immobilizing him.

The Primordial Spirit Clan's supreme elites saw that and were about to make a move to save their leader.

However, Qing Lie roared, "Retreat!"

Qing Lie had just realized that they had severely underestimated the strength of the Guanxuan Academy. He needed to send these Primordial Spirit Guards back safely to inform the clan not to act harshly.

Unfortunately, Qin Guan had no intention of letting them escape.

Qin Guan suddenly said, "Lady An, Lady Mu, please."

Swoosh! Swoosh!

A flash of sword light and a streak of spear light streaked across the star field; the Primordial Spirit Guards were then slain in the proverbial blink of an eye.

Witnessing the demise of so many Primordial Spirit Guards, Qing Lie was paralyzed by absolute shock. How come we haven't heard of such a terrifying force?

Qing Lie looked at Qin Guan and was about to speak.

However, Qin Guan waved her hand, and a conflagration engulfed Qing Lie, reducing him to ashes that dispersed into the star field.

Qin Guan then asked, "An You, where is the young master?"

An You appeared beside Qin Guan and respectfully replied, "I don't know yet."

"Find him and bring him home for me," Qin Guan said before turning around to leave.

An You bowed deeply and quietly retreated.

Meanwhile, Zhen Nanxue was still in shock. The Primordial Spirit Clan members got wiped out just like that?

It took Zhen Nanxue quite a long time to recover from her disbelief, and she smiled wryly as soon as she recovered. Young Master Ye’s family was far more powerful than she had imagined.

***

Ye Guan was cultivating amidst a sea of clouds inside the tiny pagoda. He was radiating a powerful aura that made the clouds around him churn, creating a spectacular sight.

He was making a breakthrough into the Human Dao Realm.

Ao Qianqian and dozens of Ancestral Veins were around him.

The tiny pagoda was a cultivation paradise; spiritual energy was in abundance here, and the flow of time was drastically different compared to outside as well.

Years went by as Ye Guan was solely focused on his cultivation.

One day, Ao Qianqian opened her eyes.

Rumble!

The sea of clouds surged, and a terrifying dragon might pervaded the pagoda.

Ao Qianqian had successfully made a breakthrough into the Heaven Dao Realm.

Ao Qianqian closed her eyes again, and her dragon might made the clouds ripple like waves in all directions, creating an awe-inspiring sight.

After a while, Ao Qianqian waved her sleeve gently, and her dragon might vanished, returning everything to normal.

Ao Qianqian opened her eyes and took a deep breath. Then, she grinned at the realization that she had successfully made a breakthrough into the Heaven Dao Realm.

Every single breakthrough was incredibly difficult for her as a dragon. The fact that she was now a Heaven Dao Realm cultivator meant that she had surpassed all her ancestors in the Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan.

She was now the strongest cultivator in the history of her clan, both in strength and bloodline. Her descendants would also benefit greatly from her enhanced bloodline.

Just then, Ao Qianqian recalled something and turned to Ye Guan, who was cultivating hundreds of meters away from her.

Swoosh!

Ao Qianqian suddenly appeared in front of Ye Guan. Watching him, a charming smile spread across her face.

"Why are you smiling?" asked Ye Guan as he opened his eyes slowly.

Ao Qianqian leaned forward and kissed his forehead gently.

Surprise suffused Ye Guan’s face while Ao Qianqian's smile deepened. "I was reminded of some past events."

"What past events?"

"Back then, I wanted to kill you."

Ye Guan laughed, remembering how he had almost become enemies with the Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan. Life truly is unpredictable.

Ao Qianqian softly asked, "You've reached the Human Dao Realm?"

Ye Guan nodded and opened his palm, revealing his sword intent. His overall strength had increased significantly after the breakthrough.

Ao Qianqian suggested, "Want to merge?"

Ye Guan nodded. "Sure."

Ao Qianqian smiled and turned into a beam of golden light that melted into Ye Guan.

Boom!

A terrifying dragon might erupted from within Ye Guan.

Ye Guan clenched his fists slowly; he could feel an endless source of power within him. He felt invincible once more.

Ye Guan chuckled to himself. Every time he felt this way, he'd always end up getting a beatdown. He knew that he couldn't afford to get overconfident like in the past.

Ye Guan closed his eyes and took a deep breath. With Ao Qianqian enhancing his physical strength, defense, and mental power, he was almost flawless as a cultivator.

Even without the Qingxuan Sword, he was invincible against anyone below ninety percent divinity.

Ye Guan grinned at the thought. Should I challenge Erya?

The thought crossed Ye Guan’s mind, but he quickly dismissed it.

Despite feeling invincible, his instincts told him that Erya would still make quick work of him.

After all, Erya could even withstand the Qingxuan Sword.

His fleshly body had reached a terrifying level of defense thanks to Ao Qianqian's support, but it was still like a piece of paper before the Qingxuan Sword.

Just then, Ruo Ming appeared before Ye Guan and asked, "Human Dao Realm?"

"Yes."

Ruo Ming smiled slightly and said, "Congratulations."

"How about you? Any progress"

"It's incredibly difficult for me to advance any further. In fact, it's almost impossible," Ruo Ming said with a hint of helplessness in her voice. Reaching ninety percent divinity power from eighty percent was nearly impossible.

“The First God's journal..." Ye Guan muttered.

"The First God’s journal doesn't contain a method to accumulate ninety percent divinity.”

"They don't?"

"I suspect that reaching ninety percent divinity isn't something that can be achieved through any method. It likely depends on oneself."

Ye Guan fell silent. Indeed, if there were a method, there wouldn't be so few ninety percent divinity cultivators.

Ruo Ming suddenly looked worried. "The Primordial Spirit Clan..."

Ye Guan instantly felt a pang of worry. "Where's Qing Zhi?"

"She's gone."

"Gone?"

"Yes."

"Where did she go?"

"You should know why she left."

Ye Guan sighed in understanding. Qing Zhi was from the Primordial Spirit Clan, and Ye Guan was an enemy of the Primordial Spirit Clan. It had to be painful for her to stay here.

Ye Guan muttered, "I'm worried about her safety..."

"The Primordial Spirit Clan won't go out of their way to find her. You should be more concerned about them seeking revenge on your family..."

Ye Guan blinked and said, "My mother must be in the Old Era by now."

With that, he left the tiny pagoda. Just as he was about to contact An You, An You appeared before him.

Ye Guan was about to speak, but An You beat him to the chase, respectfully saying, "Young Master, the Pavillion Master wants you to come home."

Ye Guan smiled and nodded. "Indeed. It's time to go back home."

With that, he and An You disappeared into thin air.

***

Within the Primordial Spirit Temple of the Primordial Spirit Clan, the Wise Master and Spirit Lord Sifa revealed grim faces at the news that they had just received—Qing Lie and the Primordial Spirit Guards with him had perished..

Qing Lie was at eighty percent divinity, and those guards were supreme elites of the clan, but to think that they'd end up getting wiped out...

The two realized that they had grossly underestimated the forces behind Ye Guan.

The Wise Master suddenly said, "We need to find a way to inform the clan leader."

"I've been trying to contact him, but I haven't been able to reach him."

"This requires careful planning..."

"Careful planning?" A voice suddenly boomed from outside the hall. The two turned and saw an elder walking into the Primordial Spirit Temple.

The Wise Master and Spirit Lord Sifa were stunned to see the newcomer.

"Elder Qing Yer... why did you emerge from seclusion?"

He was the Supreme Elder of the Primordial Spirit Clan, and his status in the clan was second only to the ancestors and the clan leader.
