I Have A Sword

"But I want to fight that blood corpse first," Ye Guan remarked with a smile. He stared at the distant blood corpse. His intuition was telling him that this was a golden opportunity for him to hone himself.

The mysterious figure glanced at Ye Guan indifferently. "Do as you please."

"It's him!" someone exclaimed in surprise. He was none other than Gao Qian, who had encountered Ye Guan and Yi Nian yesterday.

Lin Xian was standing next to him and was staring at Ye Guan as well. "Young Master Ye must be hiding his true strength."

Gao Qian shook his head and chuckled, "Indeed, and to think that I even gifted him a sword yesterday..."

Lin Xian smiled gently and held Gao Qian's hand. "Don't overthink it. As long as there's no malice, it's fine."

Gao Qian nodded, and then he looked at Ye Guan in the distance with anticipation in his eyes. The cultivators near him were staring at Ye Guan in disbelief.

He's courting death with that cultivation base of his!

The blood corpse was staring in astonishment at Ye Guan.

"Why waste words? Let's just fight." Ye Guan challenged.

Swoosh!

Ye Guan vanished into thin air.

The blood corpse raised his hand and punched before turning around to leave.

In his eyes, someone so weak would die with just a single punch from him.

The next moment, however, he came to a halt as the space before him had cracked open.

A sword rushed out of the rift, but it wasn't the Qingxuan Sword. It was a sword made out of Ye Guan's sword intent.

The blood corpse was taken aback, but he flicked it away with his two fingers.

Boom!

The sword was sent flying, but a terrifying aura engulfed him from behind.

The blood corpse frowned and turned around before sending another punch.

Boom!

A sword light shattered, but another sword appeared next to the blood corpse. The sword was faster than the earlier, and it pierced the blood corpse's back.

Shwing!

Before the blood corpse could react, countless swords manifested around him and engulfed him like a deluge.

BOOM!

A terrifying aura erupted from the cocoon of sword light. The sword lights shattered, and a blood-red shadow charged at Ye Guan, aiming a punch at his face.

Ye Guan's expression remained unchanged. He took a stance with his sword and thrust it forward.

Just as the blood corpse's fist was about to touch Ye Guan’s sword, his fist gently turned to the side and effortlessly grabbed Ye Guan’s sword. He subdued it in the blink of an eye and lunged forward with his knee aimed at Ye Guan's abdomen.

This was the exact same move that killed the middle-aged man earlier.

By the time he lunged forward with his knee, however, Ye Guan had already let go of his sword and attacked with his knee first.

Bang!

Ye Guan's knee struck true, sending the blood corpse hundreds of meters away. As soon as the blood corpse stabilized himself in midair, a sword made out of sword intent descended toward the crown of his head.

Bang!

The blood corpse's head cracked like a spider web, and the lone sword erupted into a kaleidoscope of sword lights that engulfed the blood corpse in the blink of an eye.

However, Ye Guan wasn't done yet. He slashed out with his sword, sending a thick layer of sword light that blasted the blood corpse thousands of meters away.

Ye Guan saw an opportunity to attack once again and was about to take it when the space around him shattered and collapsed.

A mysterious force pushed him hundreds of meters away.

Ye Guan looked up into the distance and saw that even though the blood corpse was covered in sword wounds, none of them were fatal.

Meanwhile, everyone was shocked. They truly did not expect that Ye Guan could fight the blood corpse, much less gain the upper hand.

Was his cultivation base really as low as it seemed?

Dai Qing remarked, "Young Master Ye's combat strength is terrifying..."

Dai Zong nodded slightly, and a complicated light flashed in his eyes. "We still ended up underestimating him."

He had always known that Ye Guan was strong, but he hadn't expected Ye Guan's strength to be so great. If Ye Guan were of the same realm as the blood corpse, the blood corpse wouldn't even be able to fight back.

The mysterious figure stared at Ye Guan. Although he was surprised, he didn't take it to heart.

The Arcanist Civilization was second only to the Tianxing Civilization, after all.

The blood corpse looked at Ye Guan and said, "I underestimated your combat strength."

Ye Guan wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth and closed his eyes.

Swoosh!

The blood corpse suddenly disappeared like a ghost.

Densely packed shadows appeared around Ye Guan, but he responded quickly, and countless sword lights manifested around him to protect him.

Soon, a cacophony of explosions echoed throughout the battlefield.

The two exchanged multiple moves at once.

The blood corpse was furious, and it showed in his attacks that rained down on Ye Guan like torrential rain, giving the latter no time to even breathe.

However, Ye Guan had no issues handling the blood corpse's attacks.

Xin Yu couldn't help but exclaim, "So Young Master Ye actually cultivates both the sword and martial arts!"

It turned out that Ye Guan was a pretty strong martial artist as well, and his combat awareness was not any inferior to that of the blood corpse.

Unfortunately, Ye Guan was still at a disadvantage overall, and it was all thanks to the gap in their cultivation base.

“Young Master Ye is a genius indeed," Taia Tian said, nodding. He then shook his head and added, "If we had followed the Asura Clan and the Xuan Clan's decision to steal his divine artifacts, the Asura Civilization would have ceased to exist by now."

"True," Xin Yu said with a nod. "But I believe that one must always be true to their conscience."

"Indeed."

Xin Yu turned to look at Yi Nian just then, who was enjoying a hawthorn candy.

With a playful smile, Xin Yu asked, "Lady Yi Nian, aren't you worried?"

Yi Nian turned to Xin Yu with curious eyes.

Xin Yu asked, "Aren't you worried that your brother might lose?"

Yi Nian shook her head. "Not at all."

"Why not?" Xin Yu raised an eyebrow, clearly puzzled.

"What are you trying to get out of me?"

Xin Yu's smile faded.

Meanwhile, the mysterious figure was no longer indifferent. His brows were knitted tightly, and the light in his eyes was fierce.

He had underestimated the young swordsman.

The young swordsman was still being suppressed by Old Qi, but his combat awareness was on par with the latter.

After a moment of silence, the mysterious figure transmitted, "Old Qi, stop holding back now. Eliminate him."

Upon hearing the mysterious figure’s words, the blood corpse erupted with a terrifying blood-red light.

Ye Guan was knocked back a great distance, and his figure tumbled through the air.

He recovered quickly and stabilized himself, but the spacetime in front of him suddenly shattered. A bloody fist imprint broke through space itself as it flew toward his face.

Ye Guan immediately thrust his sword forward, and the sword pierced even space itself as well.

Boom!

Both the fist imprint and Ye Guan's sword light shattered into pieces, and Ye Guan was forced to retreat once again.

Before Ye Guan could do anything, the distant blood corpse trembled, transforming into a blood-red light that charged at him. At the same time, the blood corpse's aura was surging wildly.

Xin Yu's expression changed drastically at the sight. She was about to make a move, but Taia Tian stopped her.

Taia Tian didn't remove his gaze on Ye Guan as he calmly remarked, "Believe in Young Master Ye."

Ye Guan looked up with bloodshot eyes. His two bloodlines awakened, and a blood-red sword appeared in his hands.

The next moment, he slashed out, generating a wave of blood-red light.

Boom!

The blood-red fist imprint and sword light exploded.

Both Ye Guan and the blood corpse were forced to retreat.

When the shockwaves from Ye Guan's bloodline swept across the spectators, they were stupefied.

One of Ye Guan's bloodlines contained an overwhelming killing intent and ferocity. It was so fierce and murderous that it surpassed even the blood corpse's aura.

The mysterious figure frowned, and he stared intently at Ye Guan with shock in his eyes. He hadn't expected that Ye Guan would have two powerful bloodlines.

Although stupefied, the mysterious figure still didn't take Ye Guan seriously.

A powerful bloodline meant that one had powerful ancestors.

But could Ye Guan's backers be more powerful than the Tianxing Civilization?

Without the Tianxing Civilization, the Arcanist Civilization was invincible.

The blood corpse stared at Ye Guan with eyes full of killing intent. Without any words, he transformed into a blood-red light that charged at Ye Guan like a meteor.

Ye Guan remained silent as well as he charged forward with a determined light in his eyes and a sword in hand.

His battle intent grew even stronger than before, and a fiery resolve burned fiercely inside of him.

Fight! Fight until the end!

Boom!

As soon as the two got close, they erupted with a terrifying force, and both retreated continuously, their bodies surrounded by shockwaves. But in the next moment, they charged at each other again.

With the power of his bloodline, Ye Guan's combat power surged at an astonishing rate, his movements were a blur.

However, he still couldn't overcome the blood corpse. On the contrary, the blood corpse's combat power still faintly suppressed him, its attacks precise and brutal.

The gap in their realms was simply too vast.

Seeing Ye Guan's increasing combat strength, the mysterious figure’s brows furrowed further. He turned to the blood corpse beside him, his voice cold. "Old San, kill him, don't waste time."

That blood corpse suddenly vanished like a ghost, its form disappearing into the void.

In the distance, Taia Tian's face changed drastically, his voice urgent. "Young Master Ye, be careful."

As he spoke, he turned into a streak of light, rushing toward Ye Guan. But he was still a bit too slow. The blood corpse had already reached Ye Guan, its presence menacing.

Ye Guan quickly turned, his sword thrust out in a desperate defense.

Boom!

In an instant, Ye Guan was sent flying, his body crashing into the ground.

"Damn it!"

In the distance, Dai Qing suddenly roared angrily, his voice filled with fury. "No martial ethics, damn it!"

The mysterious figure ignored Dai Qing and looked at Ye Guan in the distance. Then he commanded, his voice icy, "Kill."

As the words fell, those behind him were about to take action. But at this moment, the heavily injured Ye Guan suddenly opened his palm, and a fire appeared in his hand, its light mesmerizing.

The Tianxing Flame.

When they saw the Tianxing Flame, everyone was stunned, their eyes wide with shock.

Ye Guan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, a defiant smile on his face. "Alright, I'll admit it, I'm from the Tianxing Civilization..."

Everyone had no idea what to say.

Yi Nian blinked in surprise. She stopped licking her hawthorn candy, and her eyes filled with wonder as she stared at Ye Guan.
