Brother!
Human Sword Lord!
Ye Guan looked at the woman in front of him. For some reason, he felt the woman before him was somewhat familiar!
This absurd feeling surprised even himself!
At that moment, the woman suddenly turned to look at Ye Guan and smiled. “Little fellow, you probably do not know who your parents are, right?”
Ye Guan nodded. “Yes! Tower Grandpa said my father is a live-in son-in-law!”
“What the hell!”
Inside Small Tower, Small Tower trembled and said, “This bastard says it to everyone he meets? My heavens… Can we just let this matter drop? My God…”
The mysterious voice said, “He is taking revenge on you for fooling him!”
Small Tower fell silent.
This little fellow holds grudges!
Hearing Ye Guan’s words, the woman blinked. “That is what it said?”
Ye Guan nodded.
The woman smiled. “It seems you do not quite believe it!”
Ye Guan smiled. “Yes!”
The woman looked Ye Guan up and down. The corners of her mouth curved slightly. “You are really good-looking, even more handsome than your father!”
Ye Guan gave an embarrassed smile, feeling a little shy.
Seeing Ye Guan like this, the woman immediately burst into a charming laugh. “You little fellow are actually a bit shy! You are really different from your father!”
Ye Guan immediately became curious. “Senior, what kind of person is my father?”
The woman thought for a moment, then pinched her thumb and forefinger together and smiled. “Your father… has a face that is just a tiny bit thick-skinned!”
Thick-skinned!
Ye Guan smiled. “Tower Grandpa said he is a very good person. Is that true?”
Hearing this, Small Tower immediately breathed a sigh of relief. This guy had finally stopped messing with its mind!
It had to be said, it was really scared!
This guy saying that line to everyone he met was simply too frightening!
If he ever met Ye Qingqing in the future and said, “Tower Grandpa said my father is a live-in son-in-law…”
Thinking of this, Small Tower could no longer feel happy!
Hearing Ye Guan’s words, the woman smiled. “He is a very good person!”
With that, she paused, then asked, “Do you hate him?”
Ye Guan thought for a moment, then said, “I cannot answer that question right now!”
The woman sighed softly. She looked at Ye Guan. A touch of gentleness flashed in her eyes. “The matter between you father and son… never mind! You can resolve it yourselves in the future! Little fellow, I have to go!”
Ye Guan nodded. “Alright!”
The woman smiled, then said, “We will meet again!”
With that, she looked toward Ye Guan’s abdomen and smiled. “Tower Grandpa, thank you for your hard work!”
After saying that, she disappeared!
She was gone!
Ye Guan was silent for a moment, then quietly retreated!
As soon as he stepped out, he saw Ye Zhuxin. Beside Ye Zhuxin stood an old man!
Ye Zhuxin smiled. “Young Master Ye, this is our Ye Clan leader Ye Lin. When he learned that Young Master Ye had arrived, he specially came to meet you!”
Ye Guan looked toward Ye Lin and cupped his hands slightly. “Senior Ye Lin, sorry for disturbing you!”
Ye Lin looked Ye Guan up and down and smiled. “Worthy of being the number one sword cultivator among the young generation of today. Truly handsome and extraordinary in bearing!”
Ye Guan smiled. “Senior flatters me! I really do not deserve to be called the number one young sword cultivator of the current era!”
Ye Lin smiled faintly, then said, “Young Friend Ye, from what I know, the Child of Destiny in the Milky Way Galaxy is targeting you. Are you aware?”
Ye Guan nodded. “I know!”
Ye Lin said seriously, “Young Friend Ye, from what I know, the Child of Destiny has already gathered a group of monstrous geniuses from the five-dimensional universe around him. And behind these monstrous geniuses stand various noble families and sects. Now you have issued him a challenge. You are essentially challenging a massive interest group!”
Ye Guan nodded. “I know!”
Ye Lin was silent for a moment, then said, “Young Friend, come with me!”
With that, he turned and left!
Ye Guan was stunned!
Ye Zhuxin quickly said, “Hurry up!”
With that, she directly pulled Ye Guan’s arm and followed.
Ye Lin brought Ye Guan to a grand hall. In the centre of the hall stood a black sword case.
Ye Lin walked to the sword case, bowed slightly, then picked up the sword case. He turned and walked to Ye Guan, handing the sword case to him!
Ye Guan was puzzled. “Senior, this is?”
Ye Lin smiled. “Inside this sword case are two flying swords. One is called Dragon Roar, the other Phoenix Cry. Both are at the peak of Emperor Grade. They once followed Sword Emperor Ye Yu. Later, because our ancestor pursued a higher path in the sword, he left them in the residence. However, the disciples of our Ye Clan have been unworthy. Over so many years, no one has been able to gain their recognition as master!”
With that, he looked at Ye Guan. “Young Master Ye, if you can make them recognise you as master, they are yours!”
Hearing this, Ye Guan was stunned. “Senior, this…”
Ye Lin smiled. “Come, give it a try!”
Ye Guan said seriously, “Senior, why are you doing this?”
Ye Lin thought for a moment, then said, “Young Friend Ye, when you were at Qingzhou Academy, you took out a King’s Trial badge, correct?”
Ye Guan nodded. Then he opened his palm, and the King’s Strength badge appeared in his hand.
Ye Lin smiled. “Qingzhou Academy does not recognise the badge left by our Ye Clan ancestor. But our Ye Clan does. Young Master Ye, our Ye Clan does not have much else to offer. We only have these two flying swords. As long as they are willing to follow Young Master Ye, these two flying swords are gifted to you!”
Ye Guan fell silent.
At that moment, the sword case suddenly trembled violently!
Seeing this scene, Ye Lin was stunned.
Then, from inside the sword case came a dragon roar and a phoenix cry. Immediately after, two flying swords burst out of the case and circled around Ye Guan.
Ye Lin and Ye Zhuxin were both stunned!
They seemed quite eager!
Ye Lin’s expression was complicated.
In truth, very often it is not the person choosing the sword. The sword also chooses the person!
Clearly, these two flying swords had taken a liking to Ye Guan!
Ye Guan looked at the two flying swords in front of him. The sword on the left was two fingers wide and three feet long, without a hilt. It was forged entirely from special dragon scales, as thin as a cicada’s wing. When it flew, waves of dragon roars sounded. The sword on the right was pale red, three feet long, two fingers wide, also without a hilt. It was forged entirely from phoenix scales. When it flew, faint phoenix cries rang out!
Dragon Roar!
Phoenix Cry!
Ye Guan opened his palm. The two flying swords immediately flew into his palm and trembled slightly. Waves of sword cries kept resounding!
They were very excited!
Seeing this scene, Ye Lin’s expression became extremely grave!
Previously, some sword path geniuses had appeared in the Ye Clan, but these two swords had completely looked down on them. Yet now, these two swords were so excited and eager to please!
This was simply absurd!
It had to be said, not only people are realistic. Swords are realistic too!
If you are impressive, they follow you.
If you are not impressive, they ignore you completely!
Ye Guan was also quite happy. Although the Sword of the Path was invincible, he did not dare use it too often. After all, that sword was truly outrageous. If used for too long, it would make him so arrogant that even his parents would not recognise him!
Not to mention, using the Sword of the Path gave him the feeling that he could even go head-to-head with the Human Sword Lord!
He could not use the Sword of the Path, and he had no other swords. Now, these two flying swords were truly perfect!
He liked them too!
But he did not put them away directly. Instead, he looked at Ye Lin. “Senior, to be honest, I also like these swords very much. But they are too precious. I really feel unworthy to accept them. I…”
Ye Lin said seriously, “Young Master Ye, you are the person our ancestor favoured. On this point alone, our Ye Clan supports you without any doubt! Although the Child of Destiny has a heaven-defying identity, our Ye Clan is not afraid. Young Master Ye, our Ye Clan also has some connections in the Guanxuan Universe. I will write letters to them later. When Young Master Ye arrives at the main academy, they will take good care of you!”
Ye Guan thought for a moment, then said, “Senior, then I will not be polite anymore! In the future, if the Ye Clan ever needs my help, I will definitely not refuse!”
He knew that what he could give others was a favour!
Hearing Ye Guan’s words, a smile immediately appeared on Ye Lin’s face!
In truth, he had been gambling!
Before meeting Ye Guan, he had still been hesitant. But after meeting Ye Guan, he no longer hesitated!
There were three reasons.
First, Ye Guan was the person favoured by the ancestor.
Second, Ye Guan had met that woman in the courtyard earlier… and the two of them had talked very happily.
Third, Ye Guan was very outstanding!
A gamble!
For such an outstanding young man, if the Ye Clan sold him a favour, and if he grew up in the future, it would definitely benefit the Ye Clan!
Ever since the incident when the Human Sword Lord left the Ye Clan back then, the later generations of Ye Clan disciples had to follow one ancestral rule: make many good connections and do fewer evil deeds.
Moreover, when selecting a clan leader in the Ye Clan, it was not only based on strength but also on moral character.
Ye Guan put away the sword case, then cupped his hands again. “Senior, many thanks!”
Two peak Emperor Grade flying swords. It had to be said, this favour was truly very heavy!
Ye Lin smiled. “Young Master Ye, when you arrive in the Guanxuan Universe, the disciples of our Ye Clan will take the initiative to contact you. If you need anything, you can find them!”
Ye Guan nodded. “Alright!”
He did not refuse, and there was no need to refuse!
Having more friends was never a bad thing!
At that moment, an old man suddenly appeared in the hall. The old man bowed slightly, then said, “Clan Leader, Manager Fu from the商会 is waiting outside for Young Master Ye!”
Hearing this, Ye Lin looked toward Ye Guan. Ye Guan cupped his hands. “Senior, Miss Zhuxin, I take my leave!”
Ye Lin nodded. “Young Master Ye, take care!”
Ye Zhuxin also said, “Young Master Ye, take care!”
Ye Guan nodded, then turned and left!
After Ye Guan left, in the hall, Ye Zhuxin said softly, “Clan Leader, he really is very outstanding! It is a pity he is not from our Ye Clan!”
Ye Lin nodded slightly. “Indeed. This person’s sword path talent, even if placed in the main academy of Guanxuan Academy, would definitely be among the very best!”
Ye Zhuxin frowned slightly. “Such a genius, why do the noble family faction and the sect faction still want to suppress him?”
Ye Lin shook his head with a smile. “If he had been this monstrous from the very beginning, the sect faction and noble family faction definitely would not have suppressed him. They would have tried to win him over! But now, they have already suppressed him, and both sides have become enemies. If Ye Guan goes to the academy, he will definitely lean toward the academy faction. They definitely do not want Ye Guan to join the academy faction!”
With that, he shook his head slightly. “Especially now, with the Child of Destiny and Young Master Ye being irreconcilable… sigh…”
Ye Zhuxin suddenly asked, “Clan Leader, can we win the gamble?”
Ye Lin smiled faintly. “Little girl, do not worry too much about winning or losing. Just do good deeds and do not ask about the future. Helping Young Master Ye does not harm heaven or reason. That is enough!”
Ye Zhuxin nodded slightly. “Understood!”
…
Outside the Ye Clan.
Old Fu looked at Ye Guan in front of him. “He has agreed to your challenge!”
Ye Guan nodded slightly. “Let’s go!”
Old Fu was stunned. “Go where?”
Ye Guan looked at Old Fu. “Didn’t he agree to the challenge? I am going to the main academy of Guanxuan Universe. I want to bury him right now!”
Old Fu gave a wry smile. “He did agree! But he set the time for three months later!”
Ye Guan’s brows immediately furrowed. “No way. I want to bury him right now! Old Fu, take me to the main academy of Guanxuan Academy. I will owe you the travel expenses for now. After I bury him and take his storage ring, I will pay you back!”
Old Fu: “…”
