I Have A Sword

Chapter 910: Bullying Someone Weaker



Chapter 910: Bullying Someone Weaker

Tianwu Xin was shocked. Two Hall Masters have sided with Ye Guan? How is that possible?

Tianwu Xin turned her gaze toward the distant horizon, focusing on Li Han and the others beside Ye Guan. Her brows furrowed deeply as she thought. What are these people thinking? Especially the Li Clan—choosing Ye Guan instead of a guaranteed win? Do they want to die that much?

Dao Emperor Zhaowu was also surprised by the Li Clan's decision. He hadn't expected them to choose Ye Guan, even after learning of his return, but he found their choice to be quite interesting.

If everyone had chosen to side with him, it would have been too dull. Regardless, he remained unconcerned.

In the shadows, Jimo Lan stared alternatingly between Ye Guan and Li Han.

Li Han's actions meant that he had chosen not to leave any escape routes for the Li Clan. It was a massive gamble on their part.

Jimo Lan knew that Li Han wasn't a brainless fool. Otherwise, he wouldn't become the heir of the Li Clan. Moreover, he was the Ninth Hall Master of the Evil Dao Alliance. There had to be a reason he believed that Ye Guan would win—a reason strong enough for him to bet the entire fate of his clan on it!

Should I go out now? Jimo Lan hesitated. She knew that adding to the success of a winner was not as valuable as providing help during a crisis.

If she declared her allegiance now, it would be akin to offering help when Ye Guan needed it the most.

While Jimo Lan was hesitating, nine beams of sword light suddenly shot up from the tavern down below. Nine swordsmen with sword cases on their backs and dressed in hemp robes appeared beside Tianwu Ling and his group.

Nine Path Creation Realm swordsmen!

Jimo Lan's expression grew solemn, and her hesitation deepened. She turned to look at the tavern down below, but a mysterious force blocked her from seeing what was inside.

Her delicate hand clenched tightly into a fist as her expression became even graver. She realized that she had severely underestimated the Dao Emperor—no, perhaps she had greatly underestimated the Evil Dao Alliance.

She couldn't act rashly here! With that in mind, Jimo Lan suppressed the impulse to take Ye Guan's side. She knew she had to stay level-headed, as choosing the wrong side would definitely lead to ruin.

In the end, she decided to keep observing...

***

Ye Guan looked at those nine swordsmen with a grave expression.

The swordsmen's auras were sharp and fierce, far beyond that of ordinary swordsmen. Moreover, their strength was far superior to ordinary Path Creation Realm cultivators.

Li Han said in a low voice, "These nine swordsmen come from a universe called Dao Tian, and they're known as the 'Nine Swords of Dao Tian.'

"They specialize in flying swords and sword arrays. Their true strength is unclear. That's all I know."

The Nine Swords of Dao Tian! Ye Guan sized them up. All nine wore hemp robes and hemp sandals, and there was a sword case on their backs. They all stood ramrod straight, exuding a sharp and oppressive sword aura.

Ye Guan couldn't help but be surprised that the Fourth Hall Master managed to gather such formidable allies.

Just then, the Clan leader of the Tianwu Clan, Tianwu Ling, said, "Li Han, do you know what you're doing right now?"

Li Han smiled. "Of course."

Tianwu Ling shook his head. "In that case, then it's not too late for you to repent. If you continue down this path, it will be too late for you to regret by the time your clan faces annihilation."

Li Han chuckled lightly and replied, "I'm actually quite surprised that the Tianwu Clan is willing to get involved in this conflict."

Tianwu Ling calmly replied, "Why wouldn't we bet on someone who's sure to win?"

Li Han nodded, ending the conversation with Tianwu Ling. He turned to Ye Guan and asked, "How do we fight?"

Ye Guan looked at him and said, "How about you take on those nine?"

Li Han asked, "You want me to take on nine of them?"

Ye Guan nodded.

Li Han frowned. "I think you're misunderstanding my strength here."

Ye Guan had no idea what to say.

"Haha!" A burst of laughter suddenly echoed, followed by the sudden appearance of several powerful auras. It was the Heavenly Ruler Demon and his companions.

The Heavenly Ruler Demon laughed heartily and said, "Young Master Ye, how could we miss out on an occasion like this?"

With their arrival, Ye Guan's side now had over twenty Path Creation Realm cultivators. However, it still paled in comparison to the forces on Tianwu Ling's side.

The Heavenly Ruler Demon glanced at Tianwu Ling and the others in the distance; his expression grew serious as he said, "Young Master Ye, the Evil Dao Alliance is serious now."

The leader of the Nine Swords of Dao Tian stepped forward and stared at Ye Guan.

"How about we duke it out one-on-one?" he asked.

Before Ye Guan could respond, the swordsman extended his right hand and pressed it down lightly. He had suppressed his cultivation base to the peak of the Divine Dao Realm!

Ye Guan smiled and said, "All right."

With that, Ye Guan put away his Qingxuan Sword.

Li Han warned, "Be careful."

Ye Guan nodded.

Both sides retreated tens of kilometers away, leaving the battlefield to Ye Guan and his challenger.

Dao Emperor Zhaowu took a sip from his cup and remarked, "A battle between swordsmen? Now this is interesting."

Elder Xian couldn't help but ask, "Dao Emperor, should I intervene?"

"No rush," the Dao Emperor said, shaking his head. "Let them have their fun first. A few old friends have yet to arrive. Let's wait for them to come."

Elder Xian nodded and remained silent.

Ye Guan opened his palm, and a sword intent materialized in his hand.

Xiu Fa stared deeply at Ye Guan before stepping forward.

Buzz!

The sword box on his back trembled violently, and a resonant sword hum echoed. In an instant, a sword shot out, slashing toward Ye Guan.

Every inch of spacetime in the sword's way was torn apart.

Ye Guan thrust his sword forward.

Boom!

Two sword lights shattered, and Ye Guan was forced to retreat rapidly. The spacetime behind him had exploded, disintegrating into dust.

After pushing Ye Guan away with one strike, Xiu Fa took another step forward.

A flying sword shot out from the sword box on his back, and it moved as fast as a lightning bolt as it made a beeline for Ye Guan.

Boom!

Once again, Ye Guan was forced to retreat.

Every time Xiu Fa took a step forward, a flying sword would fly from his sword box. The flying swords were so fast that Ye Guan couldn't dodge them at all. He could only defend passively.

The battle had just started, but Ye Guan was already being suppressed.

Dao Jun and the others stared at the sight with dark faces.

Upon forcing Ye Guan to retreat once again, Xiu Fa frowned. The next moment, he turned around and pressed down with his right hand, creating a barrier of sword energy.

Bam!

A flying sword appeared without warning, heading straight for Xiu Fa. When he blocked it, another sword simultaneously appeared behind him.

Xiu Fa frowned and flipped his left hand, pressing downward.

Boom!

A myriad of sword lights burst from within him, intercepting the oncoming sword.

Meanwhile, Ye Guan suddenly vanished from where he was standing. The next instant, a resonant sword hum echoed throughout the sky.

Schwing!

A beam of sword light flew toward Xiu Fa.

Boom!

The attack forced Xiu Fa thousands of meters away. As soon as he came to a halt, nearly a hundred flying swords converged on him. Xiu Fa's eyes narrowed into slits. He brought his fingers together and swiped upward.

Buzz!

A myriad of sword lights erupted from the sword box on his back, and they crisscrossed in the air up above, becoming akin to shooting stars.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The spacetime around Xiu Fa shattered and disintegrated as the sword lights collided in mid-air.

Just then, Ye Guan swung his sword at the distant Xiu Fa.

A peculiar sword wave flew toward Xiu Fa—Lifespan Severance!

Ye Guan was not using the Qingxuan Sword, so with this strike, Ye Guan could only sever ten thousand years of Xiu Fa's lifespan. However, he didn't stop at just one strike—he unleashed a hundred strikes in the proverbial blink of an eye, severing a million years' worth of lifespan in an instant!

The nearby experts were shaken at the sight. It was a terrifying attack.

Even Dao Emperor Zhaowu was surprised. "Accelerating the passage of time... that's an intriguing sword technique."

Meanwhile, Ye Guan felt dizzy and lightheaded. The energy consumption of Life Severance was just immense. Fortunately, he managed to maintain his composure.

When everyone saw Xiu Fa's condition, they were all horrified. Xiu Fa's hair had turned white, and his face was covered with wrinkles; he had aged drastically.

No one could tell exactly how much lifespan he had left, but it was clear that he didn't have much time remaining. He was now emitting the aura of death—signs that his lifespan was nearing its end.

Xiu Fa stared at Ye Guan in disbelief. "What sword technique was that?"

Ye Guan replied, "Lifespan Severance."

"Impressive indeed." Xiu Fa nodded. With that, he stepped forward, and the sword box on his back shot up into the sky, rising to the heavens. He then pointed a finger to his forehead, causing it to split open.

A surge of sword intent erupted from his glabella and rushed into the sword box.

Boom!

The sword box unleashed a myriad of swords, which rained down on Ye Guan, enveloping him completely.

When Ye Guan saw the overwhelming wave of sword energy, a cold gleam flashed in his eyes. He spread his hands, and an unstoppable sword intent surged from within him, transforming into a myriad of swords that charged at the oncoming swords.

A direct confrontation!

Boom!

In no time, the sky was filled with swords. The area around the two of them had turned into a sea of swords, and the sound of swords clashing against each other rang like firecrackers, making everyone feel dizzy.

Dao Jun and the others, along with Tianwu Ling and his group, had to retreat farther away from the battlefield.

The clash continued for nearly ten minutes until two massive sword lights collided in the sky.

Boom!

One of them exploded like a firework, and two figures were blasted away.

When Ye Guan finally managed to come to a halt, he felt a bitter taste in his throat, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood. He was covered with more than a hundred sword wounds; the deepest was one on his chest, exposing his organs.

Xiu Fa fared no better. He was covered in over a hundred sword wounds, and his left ear was missing. A vicious sword scar ran from where his left ear had been, across his face to the right side, making him look ghastly.

Everyone present was utterly shocked, but they were all shocked by Ye Guan's strength. No one had expected him to be so powerful.

After all, even though Xiu Fa had suppressed his own cultivation, he was still a Path Creation Realm expert. If Ye Guan were to reach the Path Creation Realm, who'd be his match?

Ye Guan wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth and was about to make another move when Xiu Fa shook his head and said, "I cannot beat you."

With that, Xiu Fa retreated to stand beside Tianwu Ling and the others.

He had decided to surrender!

The crowd fell silent.

Moments later, Ci Tian suddenly raised his arms and cheered, "Young Master Ye is awesome!"

Everyone turned to look at Ci Tian, speechless.

Seeing no response, Ci Tian hesitated for a moment before putting his hands together and murmuring, "Amitabha...".

He returned to his monk-like demeanor in the blink of an eye.

The Dao Emperor chuckled, "Elder Xian, why don't you go and spar with him?"

"I shall bring back his head," Elder Xian immediately responded. With that, his figure trembled, and he transformed into a streak of black light, rushing toward Ye Guan in the sky.

"Bullying someone whom you know is weaker than you? Hahaha!" A loud, mocking laughter echoed. The next instant, a terrifying aura swept down from the heavens, forcefully immobilizing Elder Xian.

Everyone was stunned by the sight.
