I Have A Sword-Chapter 1311: Plain Skirt Destiny, Yang Ye, and Ye Xuan

When Zhu Ling spoke, her expression was one of utmost seriousness. The spacetime within Ye Guan's tiny pagoda was simply too terrifying.

Aside from the Other Shore Ark, she couldn't imagine where else such an artifact could come from. Without a doubt, not even a True Saint could make such a pagoda.

Ten years inside the pagoda was just a single day outside. Deep down, she felt that this artifact wasn't from the Other Shore Ark.

There was also that sword! It was no ordinary weapon. Even in the entire Other Shore, it would be one of the most powerful divine artifacts.

After much thought, the only explanation she could come up with was the Other Shore Ark!

Only that legendary supreme artifact could possibly produce such extraordinary artifacts, just like the Sea of Suffering. After all, the Sea of Suffering was said to have originated from the Other Shore Ark, and it was so terrifying that even True Saints feared it greatly.

Zhu Ling's curiosity toward Ye Guan was tinged with caution.

"Supreme Leader Zhu Ling, what do you think?"

Zhu Ling stared at Ye Guan for a long time before responding, "This matter is of grave importance. I cannot give you an answer yet. If we get exposed, both of us are certainly going to die."

Ye Guan suddenly said, "You may enter this pagoda at any time to train and conduct some research or anything else."

Zhu Ling's eyes narrowed, but she remained silent.

Ye Guan added, "If I obtain the Other Shore Ark, we're going to share it!"

Zhu Ling fixed her gaze on Ye Guan. "How can I trust you?"

Ye Guan replied frankly, "To be honest, I'm not sure if I can obtain the Other Shore Ark. But if I do, I swear to share it with you, and I'm the type to never go back on my word!"

Zhu Ling fell silent. She paced back and forth for a while before saying, "The appearance of the Holy Son of the Other Shore is no trivial matter. The Supreme Leaders will surely scrutinize your identity, possibly even alerting the True Saints...

"Whenever a Holy Son appears, a disaster will always follow. However, there haven't been any portents of a disaster, and the Other Shore is peaceful—"

"There's going to be a disaster!" Ye Guan interrupted, "There's an Evil Dao on the other side of the Sea of Suffering, and her name is Fan Zhaodi. She has just sacrificed a myriad beings, and her power has reached an unimaginable level.

"It won't be long before she crosses the sea... to start a revolution!"

Zhu Ling remained silent as she stared at Ye Guan.

Ye Guan opened his palm, and in an instant, three powerful bloodline energies rushed out of him. The overwhelming power caused Zhu Ling's expression to change drastically.

Moments later, Zhu Ling shook her head slightly and sighed. "Young Master Ye, I suddenly feel that transforming you into a Holy Son is an injustice to your talents."

"Indeed, it is a bit of a waste." Ye Guan looked at her. "Supreme Leader Zhu Ling, have you made your decision?"

Zhu Ling said, "Let's discuss how to persuade the other Supreme Leaders first."

The young man before her possessed two terrifying divine artifacts and three unique bloodlines. His strength was certainly formidable as well. Even if he wasn't the true Holy son of the Other Shore, he was still far from ordinary.

More importantly, he permitted her to cultivate and conduct research inside the pagoda. That was the most tempting offer—an offer she simply couldn't refuse.

Her instincts told her that if she managed to comprehend the spacetime laws of the pagoda, she would instantly become a True Saint. She was just half a step away from becoming a True Saint! ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

And the extraordinary world within the pagoda was her golden opportunity!

As for the promise to share the Other Shore Ark... she didn't take it seriously.

That was merely Ye Guan painting a grand picture for her.

With Zhu Ling now on his side, Ye Guan finally breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't have time to grow stronger and plot things out. Fan Zhaodi would never give him that luxury. He needed to move faster than her, or he would be forced into a passive position.

Just then, Zhu Ling suddenly asked, "Young Master Ye, this tiny pagoda isn't from the Other Shore Ark, is it?"

"No."

"Then where is it from?"

"It's a family heirloom."

Zhu Ling frowned slightly. Her curiosity deepened, but she didn't ask more questions.

Ye Guan returned to his carriage while Zhu Ling continued her research inside the tiny pagoda. Staring at the strange spacetime before her, her eyes flickered with obsession.

Back in the carriage, Ye Guan lifted the curtain and looked at the Ancestral Dao.

The Ancestral Dao looked unhappy.

"Come up," said Ye Guan.

The Ancestral Dao hesitated for a moment before climbing into the carriage.

When he realized that only Ye Guan was inside, he revealed a puzzled face.

"Have a seat, Ancestral Gramps," Ye Guan said.

"Ancestral Gramps?"

The Ancestral Dao sternly replied, "I'm not some 'Ancestral Gramps.' Call me Lord Ancestral!"

Ye Guan nodded. "Alright, Ancestral Gramps."

The Ancestral Dao's face darkened, but he didn't argue. After all, he was still somewhat wary of Ye Guan.

The Ancestral Dao obediently sat down.

Ye Guan said, "'We're both on the same boat now. We should be honest with each other, don't you think?"

The Ancestral Dao nodded. "Mmhm."

Ye Guan poured him a cup of tea and said, "To be frank, I'm actually the Holy Son of the Other Shore."

"Pfft!" The Ancestral Dao spat out his tea. He looked at Ye Guan without saying a word.

Ye Guan added, "Ancestral Gramps, don't be so surprised. I learned about it just now."

The Ancestral Dao glanced at Ye Guan and said, "How about we become a bit more honest with each other?"

Ye Guan smiled. "Let me take you somewhere."

With that, he brought the Ancestral Dao into the tiny pagoda.

The Ancestral Dao's face changed dramatically upon entering the tiny pagoda.

Ye Guan calmly explained, "I got this pagoda from the Other Shore Ark."

The Ancestral Dao looked around, and his face became more solemn than ever.

He wasn't just shocked by the difference in the flow of time between the world inside the pagoda and the outside world. What truly stunned him was the fact that a mere pagoda harbored laws that defied the intrinsic laws of the Great Dao.

Moreover, the fact that it was still effective in the Other Shore meant that the laws within this pagoda were stronger than the laws of the Other Shore.

In addition to suppressing the Other Shore's laws of time, it was also suppressing the Great Dao itself.

How was this even possible?

The Ancestral Dao stared at the space before him, utterly baffled.

Could this guy really be the Holy Son of the Other Shore?

No way, that would be too absurd!

Just then, Ye Guan brought the Ancestral Dao out of the pagoda.

Back in the carriage, Ye Guan calmly asked, "Ancestral Gramps, what are your plans next?"

The Ancestral Dao looked at Ye Guan and said, "Naturally, I'm going to follow you, Esteemed Holy Son of the Other Shore."

He had no idea what Ye Guan was scheming, but one thing was clear—he needed to be smart about this, or he could get beaten up. The worst-case scenario was being silenced.

Ye Guan took a sip of tea and asked, "How can you restore your strength?"

The Ancestral Dao's expression darkened in fury. The mere thought of it made his blood boil! After all those years of careful cultivation, everything was stolen away from him. If it weren't for that woman, he would have become a True Saint.

He could have returned in glory.

Sigh...

The Ancestral Dao let out a long, helpless sigh.

Ye Guan asked, "Is it difficult?"

"It is... but..." the Ancestral Dao nodded. He glanced at Ye Guan but said nothing.

Ye Guan said, "If you don't want to say, then forget it."

"I-If I had the Dao-Tracing Stone!" the Ancestral Dao quickly replied, "If I had the Dao Tracing Stone, I could restore my cultivation base."

Ye Guan frowned. "A Dao-Tracing Stone?"

The Ancestral Dao nodded. "It's a divine artifact from the Other Shore Ark, and it allows one to trace one's past to go back to it."

Ye Guan said, "Explain."

Ancestral Dao said solemnly, "Simply put, it will allow me to summon my past self and merge with it..."

Ye Guan asked, "Like entering someone else's timeline?"

The Ancestral Dao shook his head. "No, it's actually summoning my past self to fuse with my present self. However, the problem is that my timeline overlaps with that woman's.

"If I were to summon my past self, she would be alerted. Unfortunately, I have no choice, as it will take many years to restore my cultivation base."

Ye Guan suddenly said, "I will become your Dao Protector by then."

The Ancestral Dao looked at him but remained silent.

"I will help you restore your strength, but once that happens, you must help me. What do you think? It's fair, isn't it?"

The Ancestral Dao immediately asked, "How do you want me to help you?"

Ye Guan gazed at him. "Worship me."

The Ancestral Dao froze.

"Will you do it?" asked Ye Guan.

The Ancestral Dao's expression turned grim. He had always been the subject of everyone's worship, not the other way around.

Ye Guan took out the Qingxuan Sword and stroked it gently. "I won't force you. If you're unwilling, then let's part ways here and now."

The Ancestral Dao glanced at the Qingxuan Sword in Ye Guan's hand, and he couldn't help but curse. You're not going to force me? Then, why the hell did you pull out your sword?

Ye Guan stared at the Ancestral Dao. "I'm pretty reasonable."

Despite saying that, his eyes were already becoming bloodshot. It was a sign that his Mad Demon Bloodline was active.

The Ancestral Dao saw that and knew that if he were to refuse, he wouldn't make it out of this carriage alive.

"Fine," said the Ancestral Dao.

Ye Guan said, "Make an oath."

The Ancestral Dao looked at Ye Guan. "Can I not do that?"

"Fine." Ye Guan nodded. "But I'm someone who repays kindness with kindness, and vengeance with vengeance..."

"Stop! Stop!" The Ancestral Dao quickly said, "I swear! As long as you, Ye Guan, help me restore my cultivation base, I will believe in your order. I will never go back on my word."

"No, that's not it." Ye Guan shook his head. "Repeat after me—With Plain-Skirt Destiny, Ye Xuan, and Yang Ye as witnesses, I, Ancestral Dao, hereby swear that once my cultivation base is restored, I will immediately believe in Ye Guan's order. If I break this oath, the three witnesses shall bestow upon me comeuppance!"

The Ancestral Dao glanced at Ye Guan and repeated after him.

Ye Guan nodded. "That will do."

However, the Ancestral Dao was actually sneering deep inside. Oaths?

For someone of his level, oaths meant nothing. As long his Dao remained clear, oaths were worth less than a fart! This kid is still too young! He hasn't seen enough of the world!
