“You’re really ugly!”
Which woman could tolerate those words?
The scythe woman clearly could not stand it!
She slowly turned around, then looked at Ye Guan and grinned. “I’m really ugly?”
Ye Guan nodded. “The ugliest I’ve ever seen!”
The woman’s eyes narrowed slightly, a flash of cold light passing through them. The next moment, she suddenly vanished from her spot!
Sizzle!
Right in front of Ye Guan, space-time cracked open. A scythe slashed out. With this strike came a terrifying momentum that instantly shattered the space within a hundred zhang around them!
Facing this terrifying slash, Ye Guan’s expression remained calm. He simply thrust out a single sword.
This was the Sword of the Path!
Sizzle!
Ye Guan’s sword directly tore the blood-coloured scythe apart. The long-haired woman who had already rushed up to him had her pupils shrink sharply. She tried to retreat, but the Sword of the Path was already pressed against the space between her eyebrows!
The long-haired woman’s eyes were filled with disbelief. “What kind of sword is this!”
Ye Guan suddenly moved his mind. A flying sword shot out.
Sizzle!
One of the long-haired woman’s arms flew off directly!
Blood gushed out like a fountain!
The long-haired woman stared fixedly at Ye Guan without making a sound!
Ye Guan remained calm. “Who sent you here!”
The long-haired woman said nothing!
Buzz!
Another sword hum rang out. A flying sword slashed down from the woman’s left shoulder!
Sizzle!
Her left arm also flew off!
Ye Guan stared at the long-haired woman, his expression as calm as water. He held the Sword of the Path across her neck and said quietly, “Who sent you?”
The long-haired woman stared at Ye Guan. “Identity unknown. He offered me fifty million gold crystals to come here, kill these people, and frame you for it!”
Ye Guan nodded. “Can you contact him?”
The long-haired woman shook her head. “No!”
Ye Guan gave a slight nod. “No problem!”
With that, he opened his palm and collected the woman’s storage ring. However, the Sword of the Path remained pressed against the space between her eyebrows.
Ye Guan glanced into the ring. Inside were exactly fifty million gold crystals!
He put them away!
Feeling quite pleased!
The long-haired woman stared at Ye Guan without speaking, while blood continued to pour from her severed arms.
At that moment, the space beside them suddenly cracked open. The next instant, an old man slowly walked out.
An expert from Xianbao Pavilion!
After the old man emerged, he glanced at the corpses scattered around, then looked at Ye Guan. Ye Guan explained everything that had just happened.
After listening, the old man fell silent.
Ye Guan looked at the old man without speaking.
If this old man was also from the family faction or sect faction, then he could only say that Xianbao Pavilion was beyond saving!
At this point, the old man gave a slight nod. “I understand!”
Ye Guan nodded, then glanced at Fu Lao beside him. “Senior, Fu Lao won’t face any punishment, right?”
The old man looked at Ye Guan. “No!”
Ye Guan gave a slight nod, then pointed at the armless woman. “Then I’ll leave her to you, Senior!”
As he spoke, he seemed to think of something and asked, “Will Xianbao Pavilion remove me from the blacklist?”
The old man shook his head. “No!”
Ye Guan smiled, put away the Sword of the Path, and turned to leave!
The old man suddenly said, “Aren’t you curious why we won’t remove it?”
Ye Guan stopped, then replied, “It’s very simple. Xianbao Pavilion wants to invest in the chosen one, so you have to make your stance clear!”
The old man’s expression was complicated. “Yes! The Elder Council has already decided to invest in the chosen one. Since the chosen one and Young Master Ye are irreconcilable, in order to show goodwill to the chosen one, Xianbao Pavilion has placed Young Master Ye on the lifetime blacklist! It will never be lifted!”
Lifetime blacklist!
Ye Guan was silent for a moment, then nodded. “Understood!”
With that, he turned back to look at Xianbao Pavilion and said softly, “In this life, I will never step into Xianbao Pavilion again!”
After saying that, he turned and left!
What Ye Guan did not know was that this single sentence of his would, in the future, cause a massive earthquake within Xianbao Pavilion!
Watching Ye Guan disappear into the distance, the old man sighed inwardly. He turned to look at the armless woman beside him. “The higher-ups have given instructions. You may leave!”
Beside him, Fu Lao looked stunned.
The armless woman said nothing extra and simply turned to leave!
Fu Lao looked at the old man. “Manager Mu…”
Manager Mu sighed softly. “Fu Lao, your death sentence can be spared, but punishment cannot be avoided. From now on, you will be exiled to the remote single province in the lower realm!”
Fu Lao fell silent.
Single province!
A very remote little region!
This was sending him off to retire!
Sigh!
Fu Lao gave a slight nod. “Alright!”
He knew this was already the best outcome he could hope for!
Fu Lao said nothing more and left!
But at this moment, he looked much older!
Going from the manager of Qingzhou Xianbao Pavilion to the manager of Single Province Xianbao Pavilion was like falling from the clouds straight into the mud!
The saddest thing for a person is often to have once reached the peak, only to fall in the end.
Manager Mu looked at the aged Fu Lao and shook his head with a sigh.
He knew that from now on, Fu Lao would grow old and die in Single Province, and in a very miserable way!
This was the consequence of picking the wrong side!
Manager Mu sighed softly and turned to leave!
…
On the other side.
Ye Guan walked along the street heading outward. At that moment, it began to rain. Ye Guan did not take shelter. He simply walked slowly through it.
The small tower suddenly spoke. “What’s wrong?”
Ye Guan said softly, “Tower Master, am I someone who causes a lot of trouble?”
The small tower thought for a moment, then replied, “Actually, not really!”
Ye Guan was puzzled. “Why?”
The small tower said, “I’ve seen someone who caused far more trouble before!”
Ye Guan asked, “Who?”
The small tower fell silent.
Ye Guan shook his head with a smile and did not press further.
The small tower asked, “What are your plans now?”
Ye Guan thought for a while, then said, “I’m going back to South Province for a visit!”
The small tower asked, “By cosmic ship?”
Ye Guan replied calmly, “Of course not!”
With that, he turned and walked into the distance!
The small tower was confused. “What are you doing?”
Ye Guan said nothing. Soon, he arrived directly at Xianbao Pavilion, and Manager Mu appeared in front of him once again.
Seeing Ye Guan, Manager Mu frowned. “What are you doing?”
Ye Guan said calmly, “Where is the teleportation array?”
Manager Mu stared at Ye Guan. “Young Master Ye, our Xianbao Pavilion will no longer provide you with any services!”
Ye Guan thought for a moment, then said, “With my current strength, I believe no one in the entire Qingzhou can defeat me. And if you call for reinforcements from the main headquarters of Xianbao Pavilion, it would take at least half an hour, right? In half an hour, a Sword Emperor can accomplish a great many things. What do you think?”
Hearing this, Manager Mu’s expression changed instantly. “Young Master Ye, you… you can’t just act like a thug!”
Ye Guan said calmly, “Manager Mu, I’m discussing this with you! You also know that even by cosmic ship, it would take several months to get from here to South Province. You can’t really expect me to take a cosmic ship, can you?”
Manager Mu gave a bitter smile. “Young Master Ye, Xianbao Pavilion has strict orders. We are not permitted to serve you any longer!”
Ye Guan moved his mind. Suddenly, a sword soared into the sky!
Buzz!
A sword hum echoed through the surroundings!
Manager Mu’s expression changed drastically. He retreated repeatedly, his eyes full of wariness!
To be honest, he really was afraid Ye Guan would go wild!
Damn it!
This was a Sword Emperor, and one with somewhat abnormal strength!
At that moment, experts from Xianbao Pavilion appeared in the area, but no one dared to step forward!
Ye Guan looked at Manager Mu. “Manager Mu, what are you doing? I’m just playing around with my sword here. I have no other intentions!”
Manager Mu remained silent.
Ye Guan stared at Manager Mu without speaking, which made Manager Mu’s scalp tingle.
Manager Mu felt bitter inside.
Ye Guan suddenly said, “If I leave Qingzhou, wouldn’t that be a very good thing for everyone?”
Hearing this, Manager Mu froze!
Yes!
If Ye Guan left Qingzhou, it would definitely be good for him! And if he really prevented this fellow from leaving, would this fellow dare to kill him?
Manager Mu glanced at Ye Guan and fell silent.
He felt that Ye Guan would dare!
This guy wasn’t even afraid of the An family or the Heavenly Dragon Clan. Why would he be afraid of a mere small manager like himself?
With this thought, Manager Mu waved his right hand. The Xianbao Pavilion experts immediately retreated.
Manager Mu thought for a moment, then said, “The teleportation array is ten li to the right. Right now, no one is there…”
As he spoke, he suddenly looked dazed. “What did I just say?”
With that, he shook his head and turned to leave!
Ye Guan flashed and disappeared on the spot.
After seeing Ye Guan leave, Manager Mu finally let out a long breath!
He wasn’t afraid of people with strong backgrounds. The stronger the background, the more concerns they had. What he feared most were these stubborn, hot-blooded young people!
Young, full of passion, and fearless.
If you really provoke him, he might just kill you with one sword! You would die for nothing!
He was just a salaried worker. There was really no need to risk his life for loyalty. After all, once he died, his wife and children would belong to someone else!
Inside the teleportation array channel.
Ye Guan sat cross-legged on the ground. He slowly closed his eyes!
He now had quite a lot of wealth!
Just in gold crystals alone, he had over a hundred million. On the journey from Central Divine Continent to Qingzhou, he had collected quite a few storage rings. In addition, he had more than three hundred thousand immortal crystals. Beyond that, there were other treasures, such as that Martial God Spear.
The Martial God Spear!
Ye Guan opened his palm. The Martial God Spear appeared in his hand. He slowly stroked the spear with his right hand. Inside the spear, that strand of Martial God will still remained.
Martial God will!
Ye Guan slowly closed his eyes and carefully sensed that strand of Martial God will!
In that battle back then, he had a very deep impression of this Martial God will. Although it was only a strand of will, it gave the feeling of being unmatched!
Very strong!
At this moment, Ye Guan suddenly asked, “Tower Master, what exactly is a Martial God?”
The small tower replied, “I don’t know!”
Ye Guan frowned slightly. “You don’t know?”
The small tower said, “Mm.”
After a long silence, Ye Guan gently stroked the Martial God Spear and said softly, “Tower Master, from this strand of Martial God will, I sensed a kind of aura!”
The small tower was a little surprised. “Aura?”
Ye Guan nodded. He picked up the Martial God Spear and said seriously, “A Martial God, according to the books, means reaching divinity through the martial path. But in my view, a Martial God is a kind of spirit, a spirit that never admits defeat, a spirit that grows stronger when facing the strong. Simply put, you can defeat my body, but you can never defeat my will!”
With that, he slowly closed his eyes. “That day, when this spear faced Auntie Plain Skirt, although it was no match, its intent remained, and its aura did not weaken. A Martial God is not necessarily invincible in the world, but it dares to fight against any invincible person in the world!”
Boom!
As his words fell, a terrifying momentum suddenly erupted from within Ye Guan’s body!
It was not sword momentum!
It was martial momentum!
The martial momentum produced by the Martial God will!
Suddenly, the Martial God Spear trembled violently. The next moment, the Martial God will inside the spear directly entered the space between Ye Guan’s eyebrows!
Ye Guan’s eyes snapped wide open. At that moment, he found himself in a starry sky!
Ten zhang in front of him stood a woman dressed in a white skirt, holding a long spear, her body radiating a terrifying martial dao aura.
Ye Guan froze.
“Martial God will!”
At this moment, the small tower trembled as it spoke. “Martial God inheritance… damn it, he’s a sword cultivator! He’s a sword cultivator! What the hell is he doing with a Martial God? Holy crap!! He’s a sword cultivator! Don’t cultivate the martial path!”
A mysterious voice suddenly said, “Is it possible… that he is attaining Martial God through the sword path?”
The small tower: “……”

“Brother Shen!”
“Mm!”
As Shen Changqing walked along the road, whenever he met acquaintances, they would greet each other or nod.
But no matter who it was.
Everyone’s face showed no extra expression, as if they were indifferent to everything.
Shen Changqing was already used to this.
Because this was the Demon Suppression Division, an organisation responsible for maintaining the stability of Great Qin. Its main duty was to kill demons and strange creatures, though of course there were also some side businesses.
It could be said that every person in the Demon Suppression Division had their hands stained with a great deal of blood.
When a person has seen too much life and death, they become indifferent to many things.
When Shen Changqing first arrived in this world, he found it hard to adjust. But over time, he gradually got used to it.
The Demon Suppression Division is very large.
Those who can remain in the Demon Suppression Division are either powerful experts or people with the potential to become experts.
Shen Changqing belonged to the latter.
Within the Demon Suppression Division, there are two professions: Guardian Envoy and Demon Subduer.
Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Division starts from the lowest rank of Demon Subduer,

and advances step by step, with the hope of eventually becoming a Guardian Envoy.
Shen Changqing’s predecessor was a trainee Demon Subduer in the Demon Suppression Division, the lowest rank among Demon Subduers.
Having inherited the predecessor’s memories,
he was already very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.
It didn’t take long before Shen Changqing stopped in front of a pavilion.
Unlike the other places in the Demon Suppression Division that were filled with killing intent, this pavilion stood out like a crane among chickens. Amid the bloody atmosphere of the Demon Suppression Division, it presented an unusual sense of tranquility.
At this moment the pavilion doors were wide open, and people occasionally came in and out.
Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment before stepping inside.
Upon entering the pavilion,
the atmosphere changed abruptly.
A scent of ink mixed with a faint smell of blood rushed towards him, making him instinctively frown, but he quickly relaxed again.
The bloody smell that clings to everyone in the Demon Suppression Division is almost impossible to wash away completely.
