The moment the blood-skirted woman stepped out, everyone in the venue felt a terrifying chill and fear.
An inexplicable fear.
All eyes were fixed on this woman who had just appeared.
The woman had long hair cascading over her shoulders, her gaze icy cold, devoid of any emotion, as if everything in her eyes were mere ants.
That red skirt seemed woven from fresh blood, its hem gently swaying in the wind.
Seeing the woman, Ye Guan was astonished. “Plain Skirt Sister?”
When he first met her, she had worn a plain skirt.
Now, it was a blood skirt.
Ye Guan was greatly surprised. He had not expected Plain Skirt Sister to appear.
The plain-skirted woman looked at Ye Guan. He hesitated, then smiled bitterly. “Actually, I can handle it.”
He truly had not anticipated her appearance.
Of course, at this moment, he felt more self-reproach.
Because of his affairs, he had implicated Plain Skirt Sister. He genuinely felt uneasy about it.
The plain-skirted woman stared at Ye Guan without speaking.
This was the first time she had examined him so seriously.
Ye Guan hesitated, then said, “Plain Skirt Sister…”
The plain-skirted woman suddenly said softly, “Call me Aunt.”
Little Tower: “…”
Aunt.
Ye Guan was stunned. “Aunt?”
The plain-skirted woman nodded.
Ye Guan hesitated, then asked, “Tower Grandpa said my father was a live-in son-in-law. Is that true?”
Inside Little Tower, it suddenly trembled and said, “It’s over. It’s over. Completely over.”
Mysterious voice: “…”
Hearing this, the plain-skirted woman’s brows furrowed slightly. Seeing this, Little Tower was instantly terrified out of its wits. At that moment, An Ya nearby suddenly smiled faintly. “You are his guardian? It seems you…”
Chi.
Before she finished speaking, a sword suddenly pierced through An Ya’s forehead.
Boom.
In an instant, An Ya was dragged hundreds of zhang by the Path Sword and finally nailed into a massive boulder in the distance.
The plain-skirted woman stared at An Ya. “Did I permit you to speak?”
Silence.
Deathly silence.
Everyone looked incredulously at the woman in the red skirt.
Atop Guanxuan Mountain, Gu Chaoyuan stared in disbelief at the plain-skirted woman below, his voice trembling. “This… could she be a Great Sword Emperor?”
Beside the plain-skirted woman, Ye Guan was also somewhat dazed.
So strong.
He had not even seen that sword clearly.
This Plain Skirt Sister’s strength was far, far greater than what Tower Grandpa had described.
In the distance, the group of An family powerhouses were completely stunned.
They had not expected that before they could react, their family head had been directly nailed to the stone.
Coming to their senses, one An family elder suddenly looked at the plain-skirted woman, his gaze icy. “I shall test your sword.”
With that, he slowly rose into the air. In an instant, countless pale red lightning bolts appeared around him.
Ka-cha.
Under everyone’s gaze, countless pale red lightning bolts emerged in the surrounding space. In the next moment, the elder spread his palm, and the lightning surged towards it like a tide. In a blink, a hundred-zhang-long thunder pillar appeared in his hand.
Boom.
At this moment, everyone felt a terrifying divine thunder might. Moreover, the space within hundreds of zhang could no longer withstand this divine thunder might and began to crack bit by bit. In mere breaths, the space in the competition arena within hundreds of zhang turned into a spiderweb pattern, horrifying to behold.
If this lightning were hurled at the Guanxuan Academy, even the ten-thousand-zhang-high Guanxuan Mountain might collapse.
A Divine Tribulation Realm powerhouse was this terrifying.
Everyone was horrified.
The An family elder stared fixedly at the distant plain-skirted woman, his face ferocious. “Come, let this old man see just how strong your sword is.”
With those words, he gripped the thunder pillar and hurled it fiercely at the plain-skirted woman.
Ci-la.
In an instant, the thunder pillar carried terrifying divine thunder might as it swept towards her.
The immense power within the thunder pillar easily shattered space.
At that moment, a wisp of sword light suddenly flashed across the arena.
Chi.
Before anyone could react, the thunder pillar vanished silently. Immediately after, another person appeared on the stone wall beside An Ya.
It was that An family elder.
A strand of sword qi firmly nailed him between the brows, rendering him completely immobile.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Instant kill.
It was actually an instant kill.
Even a Divine Tribulation Realm expert was instantly killed?
An Ya looked incredulously at the distant plain-skirted woman, her voice trembling. “You… you are a Great Sword Emperor.”
Great Sword Emperor.
With these words, an uproar erupted in the venue.
A Great Sword Emperor had actually appeared in this place?
Were Great Sword Emperors not only found in the main Guanxuan Academy?
Could this person be from the main Guanxuan Academy?
At that moment, An Ya suddenly said, “No. Impossible. My An family is familiar with all the Great Sword Emperors of the Guanxuan Academy. There is no one like you. You… you are a rogue Great Sword Emperor.”
Rogue cultivator.
At this thought, An Ya suddenly regained confidence.
A mere rogue cultivator. What was there to fear?
An Ya suddenly roared, “Summon the ancestral phantom soul.”
Summon an ancestor?
As her voice fell, in distant Qingzhou, a beam of white light suddenly shot skyward from the An family ancestral shrine. In the next moment, the white light pierced through space-time and arrived directly above the competition arena. Within the white light, a phantom was rapidly condensing.
Boom.
A massive vortex appeared directly above the entire competition arena. Then, the entire sky boiled as waves of terrifying pressure descended from the heavens.
Heaven and earth trembled in fear.
Seeing this, everyone’s expressions grew grave.
The An family had actually summoned an ancestor.
One should know that over tens of millions of years, besides the two most dazzling Martial Gods, the An family had produced countless top-tier powerhouses.
These powerhouses were the true foundation of the An family.
Though most were no longer in Qingzhou, they had all left life-saving measures for the family, just in case.
Though only a strand of phantom soul had come, this powerful aura surpassed that Divine Tribulation Realm expert by at least tenfold.
This was a dimensional strike.
An Ya stared venomously at the plain-skirted woman. “You think you’re so capable? I want to see your sword…”
At that moment, the plain-skirted woman suddenly glanced up at the white light in the sky. In the next instant…
Boom.
Under everyone’s gaze, the white light shattered explosively. The newly condensed An family ancestor was directly erased.
Everyone stood frozen like wooden chickens.
Gone right after appearing.
Everyone petrified in place.
A Great Sword Emperor was actually this powerful?
In the distance, the nailed An Ya stared dumbstruck, her mind blank.
Gone.
My ancestor is just gone like that?
Everyone was so shocked they could no longer speak.
Instantly killed right after appearing.
Beside the plain-skirted woman, Ye Guan was silent. Inwardly, he trembled and said, “Tower Grandpa?”
Tower Grandpa did not speak.
At that moment, the plain-skirted woman suddenly looked at An Ya, her face expressionless. “Anyone else to summon?”
An Ya stared fixedly at the plain-skirted woman. “Who are you? Dare you give your name?”
The plain-skirted woman shook her head. “How are you worthy?”
An Ya roared in fury, “I am not worthy? My An family has stood in the Guanxuan Universe for tens of millions of years, with countless ancestral powerhouses. Moreover, we produced two Martial Gods. What virtue or ability do you have to dare despise my An family?”
The plain-skirted woman stared at An Ya. “Two Martial Gods. Very impressive?”
An Ya was stunned, then her face twisted ferociously. “Ridiculous. Truly ridiculous. A mere sword cultivator dares utter such arrogant words. Truly laughable. Do you know what it means to be a frog at the bottom of a well?”
The plain-skirted woman said calmly, “Summon them.”
After a pause, she added, “Have both An family Martial Gods come out together.”
“Arrogant.”
At that moment, a voice suddenly came from the horizon. In the next instant, a man strode through the air.
Seeing the arrival, An Ya was overjoyed. “An…”
At that moment, the plain-skirted woman suddenly glanced up at the middle-aged man. In an instant, under everyone’s incredulous eyes, the man’s head shot skyward, flying a thousand zhang high, blood spraying a hundred zhang.
Everyone petrified.
At this moment, everyone had gone from shock to fear.
An Ya looked incredulously at the distant plain-skirted woman. “You…”
At this moment, she was completely dumbfounded.
Instant kill.
Another instant kill.
Who on earth was this?
At that moment, the plain-skirted woman suddenly turned to Ye Guan. Though his expression remained calm, his heart was already in turmoil.
Sword Emperor?
Ye Guan was silent.
Tower Grandpa might have told him a small lie.
Ye Guan looked at the plain-skirted woman and said softly, “Aunt…”
Aunt.
Hearing these two words, a ripple finally appeared in the plain-skirted woman’s calm eyes. Looking at Ye Guan before her, she suddenly thought of someone. Her gaze gradually softened. She gently stroked Ye Guan’s head, then said, “In this arena, whoever you point to dies.”
Whoever you point to dies.
Ye Guan was stunned.
“Arrogant.”
At that moment, the young man from the Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan suddenly stepped forward. He stared at the plain-skirted woman and sneered viciously. “Merely a Great Sword Emperor, yet such bold words.”
With that, he suddenly took out a dragon scale. He activated it directly. Suddenly, a terrifying dragon roar resounded from the deepest reaches of the starry sky.
Summoning help.
In the deepest starry sky, a several-hundred-thousand-zhang ancient heavenly dragon was frantically tearing through space-time, rushing towards the Central Divine Continent.
At that moment, the plain-skirted woman suddenly glanced up. With just that one glance…
Chi.
Suddenly, in the deepest starry sky, a shrill dragon roar rang out. Then, a massive dragon head flew off. The ancient heavenly dragon plummeted rapidly from the starry sky.
Fallen.
Before the plain-skirted woman, the young Ancient Heavenly Dragon stared at her and sneered coldly. “My clan ancestor will be here soon. Await your death.”
The plain-skirted woman said calmly, “Is that so?”
The young Ancient Heavenly Dragon stared fixedly at her and said viciously, “Today, not only will we kill you, but we will also kill the one you guard and exterminate your ten clans.”
A Great Sword Emperor?
The Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan truly did not fear one. As long as it was not one with connections, a Great Sword Emperor? What was there to fear?
Times had changed.
Now it was about numbers.
The only fear was if this woman had backing. But he had just heard An Ya’s words. This one was a rogue cultivator.
Alone?
No backing?
Then she could be crushed at will.
Hearing the young Ancient Heavenly Dragon’s words, the plain-skirted woman nodded slightly, then asked, “Where is your clan? Point me in a direction.”
Little Tower: “…”
….
