I Have A Sword

Chapter 882: Not Happy About It?

A sea region in the tiny pagoda was suddenly disturbed by the appearance of terrifying auras; the auras swept across the sea, generating massive waves that made the entire spacetime within the tiny pagoda quiver.

Both the Heavenly Ruler Demon and Gang Zhu were astonished by the sight, and they looked into the distant horizon.

Ye Guan was overjoyed.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Three powerful auras were streaking across the skies, and the auras were so powerful that the world seemed to tremble beneath their might.

The Heavenly Ruler Demon and Gang Zhu exchanged glances, both shocked by the immense power of these auras.

The three streaks of light arrived in front of Ye Guan in the blink of an eye.

They were Dao Jun, Prime Minister Yuan, and Ci Tian.

After receiving a Dao Fruit from Ye Guan, they had been cultivating within the tiny pagoda.

Today, the three had completely absorbed the energy within the Dao Fruit, and their auras had gotten several times stronger than before. Naturally, they were thrilled by their progress, as they believed that they wouldn't make as much progress as they had today even if they were to cultivate for hundreds of thousands of years.

Every single step after reaching the Path Creation Realm was as difficult as climbing to the heavens. Without fortuitous opportunities, one could only endure a long and arduous cultivation journey.

The Dao Fruit that Ye Guan had given to them was truly a golden opportunity.

Dao Jun cupped his fist and respectfully said, "Young Master Ye, words cannot express our gratitude. In the future, if there is anything I can do for you, just say the word, and I will not hesitate even to throw my life away."

Ci Tian put his hands together and said, "One word from Young Master Ye, and I will ignite my soul."

Prime Minister Yuan cupped his hands but did not speak. He felt immense gratitude ought to be shown through actions rather than words.

Ye Guan smiled quietly at them. He opened his palm and grabbed something out of thin air.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Three beams of light flew from the horizon, landing straight into his palm.

The three beams of light were three Dao Fruits!

Ye Guan handed them to the three men, who watched dumbfounded.

Even the Heavenly Ruler Demon and Gang Zhu watching from the sidelines were dumbfounded. He's giving away such a treasure so casually? Is his family really that rich?

Seeing their stunned expressions, Ye Guan explained, "When I was being chased by the Evil Dao Alliance, it was thanks to your unwavering support that I survived. I, Ye Guan, will forever remember this kindness. These three Dao Fruits are my gifts. You may use them yourself or save them for your descendants."

Prime Minister Yuan quickly waved his hand and said, "Young Master Ye, the three of us have already received one of these fruits. How can we be greedy and take more? Please take them back."

"Yes, yes, yes," Dao Jun hurriedly said, "These fruits are too precious. Receiving one is already a great boon for us. How can we afford to accept more?"

Ci Tian glanced at the three Dao Fruits in Ye Guan's hand. He hesitated briefly before saying, "If they don't want them, then I won't take it, either."

Before they could do anything, Ye Guan placed a fruit into their hands and said, "These fruits are nothing compared to how you all risked your lives to rescue me. Please accept it."

The three exchanged glances.

Dao Jun remained hesitant, but he eventually nodded. "Thank you so much, Young Master Ye."

With that, the three accepted the Dao Fruits.

The Heavenly Ruler Demon and Gang Zhu exchanged looks of envy. They had already consumed one, and they had just received another fruit! It had to be known that each Dao Fruit was like a guarantee for a Path Creation Realm expert's future.

At the same time, their respect for Ye Guan soared. They heard every single word that he had said just now, and it was clear that Ye Guan was a person who knew how to show gratitude.

Dao Jun, Ci Tian, and Prime Minister Yuan felt a hodgepodge of emotions, but the majority of it was gratitude. One Dao Fruit was more than enough to repay their favor, so they did not expect that Ye Guan would give them another one. This was truly a pleasant surprise.

Just then, Ye Guan looked up and said, "My friends are here."

With that, he led everyone out of the tiny pagoda.

The spacetime before Ye Guan trembled slightly, and five people emerged from the spacetime rift. Xiu Wu and Jian Baiyi stood at the helm of the group, and three mysterious figures dressed in black robes were behind them. Each of them was wearing a black mask, which concealed their true appearance.

Xiu Wu and Jian Baiyii were surprised to see Gang Zhu and the others.

"Hahaha." The Heavenly Ruler Demon laughed and said, "Xiu Wu! I didn't expect you to join Young Master Ye as well."

Ye Guan was a bit surprised. "You know each other?"

The Heavenly Ruler Demon nodded and explained, "We're all from the Ascension World. We met a few times in the past."

Xiu Wu and Jian Baiyi exchanged glances, equally surprised that the eccentric Heavenly Ruler Demon had also decided to join Young Master Ye.

Ye Guan asked, "Senior Xiu Wu, who are these people behind you?"

Xiu Wu collected his thoughts and explained, "These three are my friends from the Ascension World. They've come to lend their support to you."

Ye Guan waved his sleeve, and three Eternal Crystals appeared before the three masked figures. The masked figures looked at each other before accepting them.

Ye Guan smiled and said, "There will be more rewards once the task is complete."

The three masked figures cupped their fists and said, "We await Young Master Ye's commands."

Ye Guan nodded and then turned to the Heavenly Ruler Demon. "Where is the Weapon Master—"

Rumble!

Ye Guan couldn't complete his sentence, as a spacetime rift manifested in the distance. The Weapon Master emerged from the rift along with a lady dressed in a light yellow gown.

She was an extremely beautiful lady with a graceful figure and long snow-white hair. There was a jade flute in her hand; two blood-red, mysterious characters were inscribed on its body.

The Weapon Master cupped his fist and said, "Young Master Ye, let me introduce you to this friend of mine. Her name is Hengshan Ying, and she's an ancient mage."

Ye Guan stared at the lady and found that she was staring curiously at him.

Ye Guan smiled and said, "Thank you for assisting us, Lady Ying."

Hengshan Ying replied, "No need to thank me, I'm here for the money."

"Understandable." Ye Guan chuckled. He opened his palm, and an Eternal Crystal floated toward her.

Hengshan Ying glanced calmly at the Eternal Crystal. Instead of accepting it, she asked, "I heard that you have a sacred character from the Shui Clan. Is it true, Young Master Ye?"

Ye Guan nodded. "Yes."

"If we somehow succeeded, can you lend me that sacred character so I can research it?"

"You're interested in that sacred character?"

"Yes."

"Sure."

Hengshan Ying tapped the Eternal Crystal in front of her with her jade flute, and the Eternal Crystal flew back to Ye Guan.

Ye Guan cast a puzzled gaze at Hengshan Ying.

Hengshan Ying smiled and said, "It wouldn't be too late for you to reward me once we've won.

"All right," Ye Guan replied. With that, he put the Eternal Crystal away.

Dao Jun asked, "Young Master Ye, when are we making our move?"

Ye Guan's eyes narrowed as he replied, "Right now."

Swoosh!

Zhou Fan appeared just then, and she stared deeply at Ye Guan. "I'll wait for your return."

"Okay," Ye Guan said. He gently hugged her before he laughed and said to the rest, "Let's go!"

With that, he hopped onto his sword, turning into a streak of sword light that disappeared into the distant horizon.

The others turned into streaks of light as well and chased after him.

Zhou Fan watched them leave, remaining silent for a long time.

***

The Eighth Hall Master was still seated on the stone steps that led to the main hall of the Tenth Hall. There was a book in his hand, and he appeared as leisurely as ever.

A thin old man was standing behind him. The thin old man was wearing a tight-fitting black robe, which made him appear even thinner. His hands were clasped behind his back, and he was meditating with his eyes closed.

Nine mysterious figures in black robes and black helmets were standing behind him, and the auras of these figures were so subdued that they seemed almost nonexistent.

Hum!

A resonant sword hum suddenly echoed from the distant sky. The next instant, the sky was torn apart, and a streak of sword light landed a few feet away from the Eighth Hall Master.

When the sword light dissipated, Ye Guan's figure appeared.

The thin old man glared coldly at Ye Guan.

The Eighth Hall Master put down his book with a faint smile. "So we meet at last."

"Meet, my ass!" Ye Guan roared. He charged forward without hesitation and slashed out at the Eighth Hall Master.

He was here to kill, not to chat.

"Impudent!" the thin old man roared. He lunged forward and threw a punch at Ye Guan.

"You're the impudent one!" someone else roared, and a golden light appeared next to Ye Guan. The beam of golden light crashed into the thin old man.

It was Ci Tian.

Boom!

A deafening explosion reverberated, and Ye Guan was blasted several hundred meters away. As soon as he stopped, the sword in his hand cracked open.

Ye Guan looked up and saw the Eighth Hall Master. The latter was still sitting on the stone steps with a faint smile tugging at his lips.

Ci Tian retreated to Ye Guan's side, and his eyes were fixed on the thin old man.

The thin old man was staring murderously at him.

The Eighth Hall Master sat up just then and tapped his palm with the book in his right hand.

"I must admit, I'm a bit surprised. I really didn't expect you to come find me on your own," said the Eighth Hall Master with a smile.

Ye Guan smiled back and said, "I've been waiting for you in the Great Zhou, but it doesn't feel like you have any plans to come and find me, so I had no choice but to come to you."

"Call out all your people. I want to see who dares to stand against my Evil Dao Alliance."

"Evil Dao Alliance? Is it really that impressive?" Another voice rang out. Moments later, the Heavenly Ruler Demon and the others appeared.

The Eighth Hall Master turned to the owner of the voice and remarked, "So it's the eccentric Heavenly Ruler Demon from the Heavenly Ruler Clan. If I were you, I would stay well-hidden in the Heavenly Ruler Mountain. You just caused the destruction of your clan by coming here."

The Heavenly Ruler Demon grinned. "Is that a threat?"

The Eighth Hall Master nodded. "Yes. What? Not happy about it?"

"Is that so?" The Heavenly Ruler Demon's smile turned cold. Then, he raised a middle finger and roared, "Then, fuck you!"
