I Have A Sword

Chapter 164: Bring It On!

Chapter 164: Bring It On!

The Sword Sect was here! Nanli Yin could finally heave a sigh of relief.

She would have had no choice but to summon her ancestor if the Sword Sect hadn’t shown up. Time Paradise was no match for Immortal Treasures Pavilion, and the latter would eventually massacre them all.

Zhang Yuntian heaved a sigh of relief as well. He would have been in trouble if the Sword Sect hadn’t appeared. The Lingxu Blessed Land and Time Paradise couldn’t beat the Immortal Treasures Pavilion. After all, the latter was the second strongest power in the Guanxuan Universe.

The sword lights finally arrived and dimmed, revealing thirteen people.

Cao Bai stood at the helm. He had become a Sword Sovereign.

A young man and a woman stood next to him. The young man was wearing a white robe, and his long hair extended to his shoulders. A sword was in a black sword sheath on his back, and he was emitting a terrifying aura.

The woman was clad in white as well. Her veil covered her features, but it couldn’t hide the elegant air she was emitting. A long sword was on her back. Meanwhile, ten Great Sword Immortals stood behind them.

Siao Daoren’s expression darkened. His objective was to stop Ye Guan from going to the Sword Sect.

Cao Bai walked toward Ye Guan, ignoring the Immortal Treasures Pavilion.

He cupped his fist and greeted, “Brother Ye!”

Ye Guan cupped his fist as well and said, “Cao Bai, sorry for the trouble.”

Cao Bai shook his head and said, “Don’t worry, Brother Ye. We didn’t come here without ulterior motives. Actually, we’re here to invite you to join the Sword Sect as well.”

Everyone was stunned. Ye Guan’s joining the Sword Sect?

Siao Daoren’s expression turned ashen.

He stared at Cao Bai and cried out. “Young Lord Cao! Ye Guan is still wanted by the Academy.”

Cao Bai turned toward Siao Daoren and said, “Were you not aware of the Sword Master’s verdict about Ye Guan’s case?”

“The Sword Master has indeed prosecuted the An Clan, but he did not absolve Ye Guan of his crimes,” Siao Daoren corrected.

Cao Bai’s eyes narrowed. “Are you calling me a liar?”

Siao Daoren hurriedly said, “Young Lord Cao, Ye Guan is still wanted by the Academy, and the Sword Sect is a part of the Academy. If you accept Ye Guan into your sect, you’d be opposing the Academy. Are you sure that’s appropriate?”

Cao Bai stated, “The Academy has already started the process of retracting Ye Guan’s arrest warrant.”

Siao Daoren’s voice deepened as he said, “He still has an outstanding warrant—”

“What’s going to happen is between my sect and the Guanxuan Academy.” Cao Bai interrupted Siao Daoren and said, “Who are you to interfere?”

Siao Daoren was furious, and he glared at Cao Bai.

However, Cao Bai remained indifferent as he added, “Commander Siao, the arrest warrant issued by the Academy for Ye Guan is none of your business. Whether or not the Sword Sect wants Ye Guan is also none of your business. Stay out of it. Stop being a busybody.”

“How dare you!” Siao Daoren shouted in rage, “Cao…!”

Cao Bai raised his sword and pointed it at Siao Daoren.

“Do you want to fight?”

The group of swordsmen behind Cao Bai glared at Siao Daoren. Their gazes were as sharp as swords, and they would obviously make a move the moment they were told to do so.

Siao Daoren frowned. He didn’t expect that the Sword Sect would be so determined to take Ye Guan away. The Sword Sect was indeed full of stubborn and unyielding swordsmen!

However, Siao Daoren knew that he couldn’t back off. The Immortal Treasures Pavilion’s reputation would plummet if he were to retreat. He couldn’t afford to retreat here.

Siao Daoren scoffed and roared, “Since you want a fight, I’ll give you a fight!”

He hurled a transmission talisman, and it disappeared into the starry skies. He had decided to call for more reinforcements. He was convinced that the Immortal Treasures Pavilion would win when it came to a numbers comparison.

And that was exactly why Siao Daoren wasn’t afraid of a fight.

“Let’s fight!” Cao Bai laughed and said, “Brother Ye, follow my lead!”

With that, he turned into a ray of sword light that streaked across the starry skies.

The two Sword Sovereigns behind him jumped onto their swords and turned into rays of light as well that tore through space itself as they flew across the starry skies.

The ten Great Sword Immortals hopped onto their swords and charged at the enemies.

Siao Daoren revealed a sinister look as he roared, “Charge!”

With that, the powerhouses behind him made their move.

The Dao Soldiers were fearless even against the powerhouses of the Sword Sect.

A violent battle started between both parties. Nanli Yin and Zhang Yuntian exchanged looks before they charged at the Immortal Treasures Pavilion powerhouses.

Nothing mattered but slaughter.

Ye Guan abruptly disappeared and reappeared in the midst of the massacre. His target wasn’t Siao Daoren. He was going to reap the lives of the Dao Soldiers.

Siao Daoren was as strong as Nanli Yin. Ye Guan knew that he couldn’t kill the former in an instant, so he decided to do what he was good at and reaped the lives of more than a dozen Dao Soldiers at once.

Ye Guan’s figure flickered. He moved rapidly in the midst of the Dao Soldiers and reaped multiple lives every time he stopped as he zigzagged gracefully on the battlefield.

Siao Daoren’s expression darkened, and he roared, “Stop Ye Guan!”

A middle-aged man appeared in front of Ye Guan in response to Siao Daoren’s roar.

He was just about to attack, but Ye Guan abruptly vanished.

Swoosh!

A sword light flashed tens of meters away from him.

A grotesque noise echoed as another Dao Soldier was cut down.

The middle-aged man’s expression fell. He stepped forward and rushed at Ye Guan.

However, Ye Guan disappeared into thin air once more.

Squelch!

A few Dao Soldiers were killed once again as Ye Guan reappeared somewhere.

The middle-aged man yelled, “He is too fast! I can’t stop him!”

Ye Guan moved swiftly through the crowd. Two flying swords let out dazzling lights as they decisively took the lives of those daring enough to stand in their way. The Dao Soldiers found it hard to even track the two flying swords.

Ye Guan killed a few dozen Dao Soldiers in the proverbial blink of an eye.

Just then, a man jumped in front of Ye Guan to block him.

He thrust his spear forward, and a powerful spear force rushed toward Ye Guan like a deluge.

Ye Guan responded by stomping with his right foot.

Swoosh!

Instant Death Strike!

Slash!

The man’s long spear was torn apart by Ye Guan’s sword, but Ye Guan’s sword didn’t lose any strength as it chopped the man’s head off. Ye Guan opened his palm, and a sword appeared in his hand; then, he jumped into the fray once more.

Slash!

A Dao Soldier collapsed nearby.

The Dao Soldiers were terrified, and their eyes quivered in fear. Ye Guan was way too fast. They couldn’t react to his attacks!

They felt like just meeting Ye Guan’s eyes meant that they had already died.

Ye Guan was alone, but his impact was huge. The scales of the battle were slowly tilting away from the Immortal Treasures Pavilion.

Ye Guan’s friends were faring pretty well; the other swordsmen were dancing through the battlefield as if it were their stage. The auras they were exuding made them seem like they were the stars of a show.

They swept through the battlefield and killed both Dao and Immortal Soldiers.

Siao Daoren frowned.

He didn’t expect that the group of swordsmen would be so strong.

Nanli Yin’s eyes were on Siao Daoren. She was ready to suppress Siao Daoren the moment the latter made a move. She had to lock him down, as he was strong. If he were allowed to move freely, they would suffer heavy losses.

Ye Guan wantonly slaughtered those unfortunate enough to stand in his way on the battlefield. Unbeknownst to him, a light red hue had surrounded him, and it was only getting thicker as the battle raged on.

Ye Guan was getting more and more excited with every kill, and even Ye Guan thought that he was a madman for feeling excited in the midst of a slaughter.

What is this feeling? Ye Guan frowned.

He finally realized that he had been expending too much energy. Sword Arts, especially the Royal Sword Art, consumed too much profound energy. Ye Guan reckoned that even a spiritual pill wouldn’t be able to make up for the deficiency.

Just then, Ye Guan suddenly felt light.

He turned and saw Qiao Xingyao not too far away from him.

A stream of light from her staff had struck him, and he felt his profound energy recover at a speedy rate. He also felt lighter, which meant that he had gotten faster.

Ye Guan stared at Qiao Xingyao in astonishment.

“Kill them quick.” Qiao Xingyao winked at him as her hands moved busily to cast her spells. “I’ll help you.”

Ye Guan nodded and disappeared.

Slash!

A few Dao Soldiers collapsed.

Qiao Xingyao smiled and muttered to herself, “He’s so strong…”

Boom!

A deafening explosion echoed as a massive rift in space was torn open.

An old man wearing a black shirt emerged from the rift.

He swept his gaze across the swordsmen and waved his sleeve.

Rumble!

A powerful energy enveloped the swordsmen and suppressed them.

The space also contorted and tightened to form a jail.

Ye Guan’s heart leaped as he stared deeply at the old man. The old man remained expressionless as he calmly waved his sleeve once more, sending a wave of powerful energy that immobilized those on the other side.

Everyone felt as if thousands of mountains were pressing down on them.

They could barely breathe. This was a true powerhouse!

Nanli Yin’s expression turned heavy as she stared at the old man.

“Commander of the Immortal Treasures Pavilion’s Immortal Soldiers, Ouyang Xiao!”

Ouyang Xiao glared coldly at his enemies with an indifferent look.

“So the Sword Sect wants to fight? I’ll give you a fight, then!”

He raised his hand and was about to unleash another move.

However, a voice echoed from the depths of the starry skies. “Bring it on!”

Shwing!

A dazzling sword light streaked across the starry skies and arrived above the battlefield in the blink of an eye.

The sword light eventually dimmed, revealing a woman.

Little Pagoda mumbled, “It’s her… How far!”
