I Have a Sword - Chapter 760: Call Your Grandfather
Capture me and my grandfather? Ye Guan shook his head and smiled. “I’m actually a bit excited about that.”
Shen Qi glanced at Ye Guan, surprised. “Excited?”
“Master Pagoda told me that my grandfather had a fiery temper. He has simply mellowed out,” replied Ye Guan.
Shen Qi wanted to ask questions, but the teleportation array trembled violently, interrupting her.
The next moment, a shadowy figure from the teleportation array and waves of terrifying energy spread out of it like a tide.
The shadowy figure belonged to a middle-aged man. The middle-aged man was emanating a powerful spear intent, and there was a long spear in his hands.
The spear aura around the middle-aged man was so strong that the nearby spacetime grew illusory.
“I’m finally back,” the middle-aged man said with eyes closed. Then, he opened his eyes and looked down at Ye Guan. “You must be Ye Guan.”
Ye Guan nodded. “That’s right.”
The middle-aged man chuckled, “I heard that you’re the ruler of this place. Is that true?”
Ye Guan retorted, “Are you by yourself?”
The middle-aged man stared at Ye Guan and laughed, “Is that not enough?”
Ye Guan smiled and reminded, “An expert with ninety percent divinity came before you, and he died.”
“I know. Your grandfather killed him,” said the middle-aged man. He then looked around and asked, “Where’s your grandfather? Ask him to come out; I want to talk to him.”
“I don’t think my grandfather is interested in talking to you,” replied Ye Guan.
“Haha.” The middle-aged man chuckled. “As expected, you lot are frogs in a well, ignorant of the sky’s vastness.”
“How about we exchange a few moves?” Ye Guan asked.
The middle-aged man stared at Ye Guan and challenged, “You think you’re worthy of that?”
Instead of replying, Ye Guan simply disappeared into a ray of sword light that flew toward the middle-aged man.
Ye Guan truly wanted to fight an expert with percent divinity. He knew that there was a gap between them and such experts, and he wanted to see just how big that gap was.
As soon as Ye Guan disappeared, the middle-aged man thrust his long spear forward.
The long spear’s tip gleamed with a cold light, and the air screeched beneath its terrifying power.
Boom!
The dazzling spear light of the middle-aged man was torn open, but Ye Guan was blasted away. He was forced to retreat to where he stood earlier.
The middle-aged man sneered, and disdain fleeted across his eyes at the sight.
Just as he was about to make another move, a sword intent suddenly appeared before him.
Phantom Edge!
The middle-aged man’s brow furrowed in surprise. The sword had appeared so suddenly that even he hadn’t anticipated it.
Fortunately, his reflexes were quick enough.
The sword had just appeared, but his spear was already in front of him to defend him.
Clang!
Ye Guan’s sword intent came to an abrupt halt, but several more swords made out of sword intent emerged, attacking the middle-aged man from all directions.
The middle-aged man’s eyes narrowed. He took a stance with his spear and swept it around him, unleashing a rain of spear light.
Boom!
The oncoming swords were stopped dead in their tracks!
Rumble!
A mysterious energy sprang up, enveloping the middle-aged man.
It was a sword domain!
Thousands of sword lights engulfed the middle-aged man, but a terrifying spear light erupted from within the sword lights, and it sent Ye Guan flying a thousand meters away!
Ye Guan’s sword domain soon shattered beneath the middle-aged man’s attacks.
A thousand meters away, Ye Guan opened his palm, revealing a myriad of tiny swords made out of sword intent. The swords flickered before disappearing completely.
The middle-aged man’s brows were furrowed tightly. “What sword technique is that?”
Ye Guan’s mysterious and unpredictable sword technique was making him feel apprehensive. If Ye Guan were just a bit stronger, even he wouldn’t dare to face it head-on.
Ye Guan closed his eyes and was once again reminded of his glaring weakness.
His cultivation base was too low against a supreme elite with ninety percent accumulated divinity.
The issue here was his cultivation base!
With that in mind, Ye Guan activated his bloodlines.
He activated both the Mortal Bloodline and the Mad Demon Bloodline at the same time!
Rumble!
Rumbling noises filled the air as a terrifying aura surged out crazily from Ye Guan.
On the sidelines, Shen Qi immediately frowned upon sensing the two distinct bloodlines within Ye Guan.
“Two bloodlines?” Shen Qi muttered.
The middle-aged man’s face also showed a trace of surprise.
“You actually have two unique—”
Swoosh!
The middle-aged man’s sentence was interrupted by Ye Guan’s disappearance.
The middle-aged man sneered and thrust his spear forward. He wasn’t about to back down, as the young man’s cultivation base was far lower than his own.
The two clashed head-on, and a kaleidoscope of sword lights and spear lights pervaded the air.
Soon, the two were forced to retreat at the same time.
When the middle-aged man finally stabilized himself in midair, his expression twisted into one of fury. He didn’t expect that Ye Guan would be able to force him back.
With a furious roar, he leaped forward, transforming into a ray of spear light that made a beeline for Ye Guan.
Instead of retreating, Ye Guan stepped forward and charged at the middle-aged man.
As long as he was strong enough, he would never be afraid of any opponents!
Just then, Little Ai took out a crystal ball and began recording the battle between the two.
Shen Qi couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Girl, what are you doing?”
“Recording the Young Master’s battle,” Little Ai replied with a smile, “We’ll analyze it later to identify his weaknesses and help him improve.”
Shen Qi was silent for a few moments before giving a thumbs-up. “Great job! That’s impressive”
Little Ai turned to look at Shen Qi and asked, “A half-step full divinity expert like Miss Shen Qi is also very impressive.”
Shen Qi’s eyes narrowed slightly. “How did you know?”
“I also know that you’ve made contact with a mysterious civilization,” Little Ai remarked, “We’re still investigating that civilization, and we should have more information about them soon.”
Shen Qi stared at Little Ai, remaining silent.
Little Ai blinked and asked, “You aren’t thinking of killing me to silence me, are you? I believe you’re a smart individual, so you definitely aren’t going to do something like that.”
“I must say, I’m a bit shocked.” Shen Qi chuckled.
“As long as you harbor no hostility toward Young Master, you will never be our enemy, Miss Shen Qi,” Little Ai said.
“What’s going to happen if I become his enemy?” Shen Qi asked, smiling.
Little Ai replied indifferently, “All of the Young Master’s enemies so far have perished; there were no exceptions.”
Shen Qi frowned slightly.
Little Ai smiled as she stared at Ye Guan, who was still engaged in battle. “Actually, the Young Master is a nice person.”
“I agree,” Shen Qi said with a smile, “He is indeed a decent person.”
Shen Qi stared at the distant Ye Guan. She had to admit that she was a bit surprised by the fact that Ye Guan could hold his own against the middle-aged man for so long.
Moreover, Ye Guan was growing even stronger as the fight went on. His combat awareness had astonished her as well.
In a battle between two experts with the same level of strength, combat awareness could sometimes make the difference, and Ye Guan’s combat awareness was astounding.
“Young Master Ye must be invincible against those below ninety percent divinity,” Shen Qi remarked and then added, “I think even weaker ninety percent divinity cultivators might not be his match.”
Swoosh!
A shadowy figure suddenly appeared behind Shen Qi, respectfully saying, “Mistress, we’ve just received news that the people of the Forest Civilization are on their way here. They seemed to have brought every single one of their supreme elites.”
Shen Qi’s eyes narrowed. “Every single one of their supreme elites?”
“Yes,” the shadowy figure said, nodding. “All of them.”
“So they’re truly planning on returning in full force,” Shen Qi remarked.
The shadowy figure nodded slightly. “At first, they were hesitant, but for some unknown reason, they are in a hurry to come back here.”
In a hurry? Shen Qi frowned. “Why? Do we know the reason why?”
“No,” the shadowy figure said, shaking his head. “No. There’s a top-tier supreme elite expert in the Forest Civilization, and our people don’t dare to get too close to them.”
Shen Qi fell silent.
“Mistress, it’s time we choose sides. If we’re going to work with the Forest Civilization, then we need to…” the shadowy figure trailed off, glancing at Little Ai.
Little Ai smiled faintly. “Please, continue.”
Shen Qi quietly glanced at Ye Guan and the middle-aged man in the distance.
It was time for her to choose sides! If one were to refrain from choosing a side before the Forest Civilization’s arrival, one could miss out on a ton of profits.
Were they going to work with Ye Guan or take the Forest Civilization’s side?
Shen Qi was hesitating, and the shadowy figure saw that, so he couldn’t help but say, “Mistress, we need the Forest Civilization’s Time Wheel…”
The Time Wheel. Shen Qi’s eyes slowly closed.
Little Ai could hear their conversation, but she ignored them and focused on recording Ye Guan’s battle.
The middle-aged man had already summoned his divine statue, and it was suppressing Ye Guan.
However, the middle-aged man still couldn’t defeat Ye Guan for some reason.
The shadowy figure said, “Mistress, as far as we know, the Forest Civilization has nine supreme elites with ninety percent divinity and two supreme elites with a hundred percent divinity.
“Can the Guanxuan Civilization really fight them?”
The shadowy figure glanced at Ye Guan in the distance and added, “I admit that Young Master Ye is incredibly powerful, and his talent is truly horrifying. However, a lone super genius is nothing more than an ant before a Tier Three civilization.”
Shen Qi was still quiet.
The shadowy figure remained undeterred and pressed on, “Mistress, we don’t have much time. We have to help the Forest Civilization before they return, or they might disregard our previous agreement. I suggest that we act now and kill Ye Guan. Use his head as a show of sincerity to the Forest Civilization…”
Shen Qi still did not respond.
The shadowy figure became anxious. “Mistress, we really don’t have much time! And you need the Time Wheel to accumulate a hundred percent divinity. This is your best chance to become a full divinity expert. If you miss this opportunity, you will surely regret it.”
Shen Qi opened her eyes just then and stared at Ye Guan in the distance. Her trembling right hand slowly clenched into a fist.
