I Have A Sword-Chapter 539: Erya versus the White-Robed Woman

Ye Nanqing stared wordlessly at Ye Guan. Her gaze remained calm, without a hint of emotion.

Ye Guan wanted to say something, but Ye Nanqing turned around and walked away.

Further conversation was meaningless, as Ye Guan didn't like her. Ye Nanqing inwardly vowed to focus solely on cultivation from now on.

Ye Guan reached out and grabbed Ye Nanqing's hand.

Ye Nanqing frowned slightly and turned around to stare at Ye Guan.

"I wasn't done speaking," Ye Guan said.

Ye Nanqing remained expressionless as she replied, "Go ahead and finish it, then."

Ye Guan smiled. He knew that this lady in front of him was always focused on cultivation and had little interaction with others, which was the reason behind her straightforward attitude.

Of course, Ye Guan was aware that such individuals were devoted. Their perseverance and determination far exceeded that of ordinary people as well.

If someone like Ye Nanqing were interested in someone else, that individual would mean everything to them. Otherwise, one was worth nothing in their eyes—absolutely nothing.

Ye Nanqing was that kind of individual.

Ye Guan gave her hand a squeeze and said, "I think I know why you asked me that question. It's all so that you can let yourself give up hope completely, which will strengthen your resolve to pursue the Dao wholeheartedly, right?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Ye Nanqing's eyes.

Ye Guan was right. Ye Nanqing was hoping that she would get rejected, as she still wanted to pursue the Great Dao. She hadn't been able to achieve true calmness; her emotions were in a mess.

However, she knew what she had to do to proceed—she had to give up entirely.

Ye Nanqing was surprised. She truly didn't expect that Ye Guan would see through her intentions.

Ye Nanqing asked, "Are you trying to stop me from doing that?"

Ye Guan smiled and opened his palm, revealing a storage ring. "I know you only care about pursuing the Great Dao, and you don't want me to hinder your journey to the summit of cultivation.

"The Ancestral Origin in this storage ring is my way of repaying you for your help at the time. From now on, we are even."

With that, Ye Guan turned around and left.

Ye Nanqing looked down at the storage ring in her hand for a long time.

Is this what I wanted? Ye Nanqing closed her eyes slowly and pondered.

...

Meanwhile, Ye Guan regrouped with Qin Guan and Erya.

Ye Guan grinned and said, "Let's go."

Qin Guan stared at her son for a few moments before saying, "Okay."

"But the Tian Clan..." Erya muttered.

Qin Guan replied, "I decided to visit the Tian Clan today not because I hoped that they would help us. I simply wanted to reward them because Lady Nanqing had decided to help Little Guan."

Qin Guan then grabbed Ye Guan's arm and left.

The Yang Family had no shortage of supreme elites!

They had enough people from the previous generations to get through any crisis.

Soon, they left the Tian Clan. Ye Guan immediately entered the world inside the tiny pagoda to cultivate upon their return.

It was a pity that Ye Qingqing wasn't around, as his Mortal Physique was still incomplete. Unfortunately, the only way to proceed was to fight. Thus, Ye Guan had no choice but to focus on his sword moves.

Heavenrend Quickdraw and Space Overlap were the only sword moves that Ye Guan had been using so far. He had no interest in practicing other sword moves, as the Heavenrend Quickdraw and Space Overlap had unlimited growth potential.

Sister Zhen! Ye Guan was suddenly reminded of Cizhen. He looked up at the sky and muttered to himself, "The Tribulation Realm... I'll be there soon!"

With that, Ye Guan cultivated like he had gone mad.

...

A myriad of supreme elites exuding an incredibly strong aura stood outside the Dark Emperor World. The surrounding spacetime could hardly withstand their presence, becoming illusory in the process.

The Clan Leader of the Gui Clan stood at the helm of the group.

An elder of the Hidden Clan was present, and dozens of mysterious black-robed figures stood behind him. The commanding rights belonged to the Clan Leader of the Gui Clan; he was the strongest person here, after all.

The Clan Leader of the Gui Clan stared at the Dark Emperor World and asked calmly, "What is your clan leader waiting for?"

"Waiting for someone..." replied the elder of the Hidden Clan.

"Are there not enough people here to take down this so-called Dark Emperor World?"

The elder of the Hidden Clan frowned and said, "Clan Leader of the Gui Clan, are you still going to underestimate the Guanxuan Universe?"

The elder of the Hidden Clan had always been wary of the Guanxuan Universe.

The Guanxuan Universe seemed to have an endless supply of supreme elites, and each of them had always been stronger than the previous one. Today, they were about to fight not just Ye Guan but Qin Guan as well.

Qin Guan was the Sword Master's wife, and she had single-handedly established the Immortal Treasures Pavilion, which was a powerful and wealthy organization that had established a hegemony over the entire vast expanse.

They had been suffering nothing but losses since the fighting began, and they weren't even sure about the Time Pavilion's true strength. Underestimating the Guanxuan Universe at this point was stupidity rather than just arrogance.

The Clan Leader of the Gui Clan turned to the elder of the Hidden Clan and said, "If the Hidden Clan is afraid to make a move, how about you guys stand aside and let my Gui Clan go first?"

The elder's face darkened. "Qin Guan is extremely formidable, and she is not—"

"You're tainting our prestige with such words," interrupted the Clan Leader of the Gui Clan with a shake of his head. Then, his gaze landed on the distant Dark Emperor World, and his gaze gradually became cold. He couldn't quite believe that the people of this era were underestimating his Gui Clan.

The Clan Leader of the Gui Clan couldn't believe nor accept it!

It had to be known that the Gui Clan had almost annihilated the Time Reversers in the Time River during their glory days. If it weren't for the Heavenly Dao at the time, they would have dominated the entire vast expanse.

However, even the Heavenly Dao couldn't eradicate the Gui Clan.

The Clan Leader of the Gui Clan yelled, "Attack!"

The supreme elites of the Gui Clan rushed toward the Dark Emperor World.

The face of the elder of the Hidden Clan changed drastically at the sight, and he hurriedly cried out, "Clan Leader of the Gui Clan! My clan leader has ordered that without her command, no one is allowed to—"

"Stop trying to use her authority to suppress me" The Clan Leader of the Gui Clan roared and glared coldly at the elder. "She helped us lift the seal on us, and my clan had agreed to help her kill Ye Guan in exchange.

"We are not her subordinates!"

The Clan Leader of the Gui Clan turned around and rushed toward the Dark Emperor World.

The elder of the Hidden Clan cursed, "Those bastards!"

Under the leadership of the Gui Clan Leader, the supreme elites of the Gui Clan rushed toward the Dark Emperor World. As soon as they entered the Dark Emperor World, dozens of flame columns sprang up to life and made a beeline for them.

The supreme elites of the Gui Clan were puzzled. What are those?

Before they could figure it out, the flame columns were already in front of them.

The Clan Leader of the Gui Clan swung his fist, and a wave of fist energy swept out.

Boom!

The fist energy struck the flame columns, but the face of the Gui Clan's clan leader changed drastically.

Boom!

A terrifying explosion erupted, and dozens of mushroom clouds engulfed the skies in the blink of an eye. The mushroom clouds engulfed the supreme elites of the Gui Clan, and a scorching heat wave spread in all directions.

The heat wave was blocked by a protective barrier that covered the city down below.

The supreme elites of the Gui Clan suffered severe injuries, while the weaker ones were reduced to ashes in the proverbial blink of an eye.

Boom!

The Clan Leader of the Gui Clan rushed out of the flames and flicked his wrist. A powerful gust of wind vanquished the flames, but his expression was extremely grim.

He had instantly lost over a thousand of his clan's supreme elites—over a thousand!

The heart of the Gui Clan's Clan leader ached. They were precious members of his clan!

Meanwhile, the surviving supreme elites were horrified. What were those things?!

"Attack!" roared the Clan Leader of the Gui Clan before charging straight toward the Dark Emperor City; his clan members followed closely behind him.

Qin Guan stood quietly on a city wall, and her expression remained calm as he stared at the oncoming Clan Leader of the Gui Clan.

Just as the Clan Leader of the Gui Clan was about to enter the Dark Emperor City, a little girl took to the sky and swung her fist toward him.

Boom!

The punch forced the Clan Leader of the Gui Clan to stop in his tracks, and he cast a disbelieving gaze at the little girl.

The little girl was none other than Erya!

Erya snickered and shouted, "Come on, let's go!"

Then, she charged forward like a cannonball.

A ferocious look flashed in the eyes of the Gui Clan's Clan Leader. He balled his right hand into a fist, and a black vortex appeared in his palm. The next moment, he charged forward and aimed his fist at Erya. He was going to confront her head-on!

BOOM!

A terrifying explosion erupted when their fists made contact with each other.

The two were forced to retreat, but they quickly stabilized themselves in mid-air before charging at each other once again. It was yet again another head-on confrontation.

Boom!

A deafening explosion echoed, and everything between heaven and earth trembled violently.

Erya had the upper hand in terms of strength; every single one of her punches had a terrifying destructive power. However, Erya also had the upper hand when it came to defense, as she had an impregnable defense. Erya couldn't even be bothered to defend herself as hardly anyone could harm her fleshly body, which was why she could fight recklessly.

Meanwhile, the supreme elites of the Gui Clan sent wave after wave of attack on the Dark Emperor City's barrier.

Boom!

A thunderous boom echoed; both Erya and the Clan Leader of the Gui Clan were once blasted away.

The Clan Leader of the Gui Clan wanted to strike again, but he whipped around upon sensing something. Moments later, a spacetime rift was torn open, and a white-robed woman walked out slowly from the rift.

Erya's eyes narrowed, but she wasn't afraid. In fact, she became even more eager to fight. Before anyone could say anything, Erya charged at the white-robed woman.

Qin Guan's expression changed drastically, and she yelled, "Erya, stop!"

But it was too late...

The white-robed woman stared blandly at Erya and muttered, "Shatter."

Crack!

Erya's fleshly body cracked open.
