Father?
At this moment, there were many people around, yet Ye Guan felt somewhat lonely and unfamiliar.
Over the past two days, his life had changed far too much.
From being a small young lord of the Ye family, he had directly become the king of the Guanxuan Universe. He had not truly adapted to this change in identity.
Moreover, the pressure on him was immense.
The son of the Sword Master of the Human World.
He knew very well that the people of the Guanxuan Universe acknowledged him because of the Sword Master of the Human World, not because of Ye Guan himself.
This was the glory of the previous generation.
He understood clearly that the glory of the elders belonged to them, and what he bore was only pressure.
Unprecedented pressure.
To become the king of the Guanxuan Universe and then protect the Guanxuan Universe.
This responsibility was truly heavy.
So heavy that it left him almost unable to breathe.
Originally, his goal had only been to revive Xiao Jia and then lead the Ye clan to become a great clan. But now, he had to protect the entire Guanxuan Universe.
This responsibility was far too great.
As if sensing Ye Guan’s thoughts, Li Banzhi beside him suddenly spoke softly, “I know the pressure on you is great, the pressure on us is also great, but some things must be done by someone in the end, right?”
As she spoke, she looked toward the distant sky. “Do you see those gods? Their ultimate goal is to refine all the powerful beings of our Guanxuan Universe into spirit essence, and then destroy our Guanxuan Universe.”
Ye Guan glanced toward the end of the sky. After a moment of silence, he turned to look at the people before him. At this moment, the Sword Sect had fewer than one hundred sword cultivators left. Before setting out, there had been several hundred.
Most had died on the way.
In addition, the powerful figures of the Guanxuan Universe present had already suffered more than half casualties.
And all these people had died for Ye Guan.
Why were they risking their lives to protect him?
Because they believed in the Sword Master of the Human World.
The Sword Master of the Human World had protected this universe.
This was the glory of the Sword Master of the Human World.
As his descendant, while enjoying the benefits brought by this glory, he naturally had to shoulder the corresponding responsibility.
Thinking of this, Ye Guan suddenly felt relieved. He grinned and said, “From today onward, I will do everything in my power to protect the universe beneath our feet, until the day I die.”
As soon as he spoke, everyone present erupted in excitement.
Ye Guan turned to look at A Luo. “Ascend the throne.”
A smile appeared on A Luo’s face as well. “Good.”
The current Guanxuan Universe needed a king.
For thirty million years, the Sword Master of the Human World had not appeared, and the hearts of the people of the Guanxuan Universe had already become somewhat scattered.
Someone was needed to gather those hearts together.
The Sword Master of the Human World had chosen to lie flat, so there was no choice but to let his son take over.
A father’s debt is repaid by the son, perfectly justified.
A Luo suddenly shouted, “Ascend the throne.”
As she spoke, the crowd before her suddenly parted. At the end of their line of sight stood a dilapidated hall.
The Xuzhen Divine Hall.
At this moment, an old man suddenly carried a chair and placed it at the entrance of the hall. Feeling it was not enough, he took out a piece of bright red cloth and draped it over the chair.
Although it was still somewhat crude, it would have to do for now.
Under the gaze of everyone, Ye Guan slowly walked toward the chair. At this moment, he suddenly looked to his right. There stood a woman, Li Ge.
The clan leader of the Shen Ge Clan.
Seeing Ye Guan look over, a smile immediately appeared on Li Ge’s face.
Ye Guan smiled back, then looked slightly farther away beside Li Ge. There also stood a woman holding a sword.
The Great Sword Emperor Ye Yu.
He had seen her before in Nan Province.
Seeing Ye Guan look over, Ye Yu smiled faintly.
Ye Guan smiled in return, withdrew his gaze, and continued walking forward.
All around, everyone was looking at Ye Guan.
The son of the Sword Master of the Human World.
They had only just received this news, so they were very curious about Ye Guan.
Now that they saw him, smiles appeared on their faces.
He looked just like the Sword Master of the Human World, and more importantly, he was a Great Sword Emperor.
Such a young Great Sword Emperor.
Truly monstrous.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred.
Boom.
In the distant sky, a vast stretch of space and time suddenly shattered, followed by a golden light that spread for tens of thousands of metres.
Then, before everyone’s eyes, a young man slowly walked out.
Behind the young man followed three old men.
Three God Emperors.
In addition, behind the young man were more than ten thousand God Lord level experts.
Seeing this lineup, A Luo and the others frowned.
As the young man stepped out, the gods of the True World present all retreated behind him.
The young man suddenly looked toward Ye Guan in the distance. He stepped forward, and with that single step, he appeared a hundred metres in front of Ye Guan.
Very close to everyone.
Yet there was not the slightest fear in the young man’s eyes.
He sized up Ye Guan and smiled. “You are the descendant of the Sword Master of the Human World?”
Ye Guan met his gaze. “Do you want a one on one fight?”
Everyone was stunned.
The young man was also momentarily stunned. Clearly, he had not expected Ye Guan to be so direct.
The young man smiled. “Yes.”
As he spoke, he looked Ye Guan over and said with a smile, “Your realm is low. I will not bully you.”
After speaking, he pressed down with his right hand. In an instant, his realm was suppressed to the Heavenly Law Realm.
Ye Guan suddenly said, “Qianqian.”
Boom.
As his voice fell, Ao Qianqian voluntarily separated from Ye Guan. She glanced at him, then retreated to the side.
At this moment, A Luo suddenly grabbed Ye Guan and shook her head at him.
The other experts of the Guanxuan Academy also shook their heads, signalling that this could not be done.
Ye Guan had only just acknowledged his ancestry and had not yet received proper training from the Guanxuan Academy. Although he was already a Great Sword Emperor, his realm was too low.
And the man before them was clearly no ordinary figure.
This was a trap.
If Ye Guan refused the challenge, his prestige would suffer.
But if Ye Guan accepted, he would be in great danger.
At this moment, the young man suddenly smiled. “If that is not enough, I can lower it another level.”
As his voice fell, he pressed down again with his right hand. His realm instantly dropped from the Heavenly Law Realm to the Earthly Law Realm.
Seeing this, all the powerful figures on the Guanxuan Academy side were instantly enraged.
At this moment, Ye Guan looked at A Luo and smiled. “It is fine.”
A Luo looked at Ye Guan and said nothing.
Ye Guan said seriously, “Trust me.”
After a moment of silence, A Luo nodded. “Alright.”
She released Ye Guan’s hand and stepped aside.
The powerful figures of the Guanxuan Academy also retreated backward.
Ye Guan looked at the young man not far ahead. The young man smiled. “Come, let me see…”
“Cut the damn nonsense.”
As Ye Guan’s voice fell, he directly turned into a streak of sword light and charged out.
This time, he still did not use the Path Sword.
Chi.
A streak of sword light flashed across the field, unbelievably fast.
In the distance, the young man sneered. He suddenly pressed down with his right hand.
Boom.
In an instant, a mysterious force enveloped the entire space and time around him and Ye Guan.
At the same time, Ye Guan’s sword speed visibly slowed.
He was suppressed.
Ye Guan narrowed his eyes, a fierce glint flashing within them. He violently twisted his right hand.
Boom.
The surrounding space and time suddenly exploded, shattering into countless fragments that scattered in all directions.
At this moment, the young man suddenly transformed into a beam of light and shot forward.
Ye Guan slashed out with his sword again.
Twelve consecutive strikes.
Critical point.
Boom.
As these twelve strikes were unleashed, the space and time in that region shattered completely.
But at this moment, the young man suddenly raised two fingers and pointed forward. With this single point, one streak of sword light was forced to stop in front of him.
However, in the next instant, twelve flying swords suddenly slashed out from the surrounding space and time.
Chi.
The tearing sound resounded.
The twelve flying swords appeared abruptly. The young man narrowed his eyes, a cold light flashing within them, and suddenly clenched his left hand.
Boom.
A golden light surged skyward from his body.
The twelve flying swords were sent flying, but at that moment, Ye Guan suddenly released his sword and threw a punch forward.
Heaven Splitting Inch Force.
Sensing the power within this punch, the young man did not dare to be careless and hurriedly raised his arm to block.
Bang.
In an instant, before everyone’s eyes, the golden light around the young man shattered. He was sent flying back more than a hundred metres. Just as he came to a halt, the twelve flying swords slashed toward him again.
Critical point.
Facing this terrifying sword strike, the young man suddenly let out a furious roar and slammed his right hand downward.
Boom.
In an instant, countless golden blades erupted violently in front of him, sending the twelve flying swords flying back.
But at this moment, Ye Guan had already charged in front of him again.
Another punch.
Ye Guan’s speed was terrifyingly fast, so fast that the young man could not even react in time.
Seeing this terrifying punch, a cold light flashed in the young man’s eyes. He was about to strike back, but at that moment, Ye Guan suddenly vanished like a ghost.
The young man was shocked and hurriedly turned around, but the next instant, his pupils shrank violently.
Because a sword had already silently struck from behind him.
A feint to the east, attack from the west.
He had been deceived.
It was already too late for the young man to turn.
Boom.
A sword stabbed into his back, but after penetrating only an inch, a powerful force erupted from his body, shaking the sword away. But at this moment, another sword had already silently struck toward his front.
Sword after sword, giving the god youth no chance to catch his breath.
The god youth’s pupils contracted sharply, his heart filled with shock. He slammed his palms together, trying to clamp Ye Guan’s sword, but at that moment, Ye Guan vanished again like a ghost.
The god youth was terrified and immediately turned around, only to discover that Ye Guan was holding no sword.
The sword was behind him.
The man had come, but the sword had not followed.
The god youth was utterly horrified. Before he could react, the sword behind him stabbed into his body once more. At the same time, Ye Guan stepped forward and punched him in the throat.
Heaven Splitting Inch Force.
Boom.
Chi.
Before everyone’s eyes, the god youth was pierced through from the back by Ye Guan’s sword. At the same time, the terrifying power of Ye Guan’s punch sent him flying back more than a hundred metres. Before he could come to a stop, a figure suddenly charged in.
Chi.
A sword directly pierced the god youth’s throat.
The god youth’s eyes widened as he was nailed in place.
Seeing this, the faces of the god level experts changed dramatically and they were about to act, but A Luo and the others immediately blocked them.
In the field, Ye Guan stared at the god youth, whose face was full of disbelief. A trace of disdain curled at the corner of his mouth. “Showing off in front of me? You are not worthy.”
As his voice fell, he swung his sword.
Chi.
The god youth’s head was sliced off and flew dozens of metres away.
“Good.”
All the experts of the Guanxuan Universe erupted in cheers.
Great Sword Emperor.
Martial God.
This combat awareness was simply against the heavens.
Ye Guan coldly glanced at the few God Emperors, then turned and walked toward the Xuzhen Divine Hall. But at this moment, within that golden light pathway, waves of powerful auras surged forth. Then, a woman in white slowly walked out.
Beside this woman stood six people. One of them was King An, who had escaped earlier. At this moment, King An’s physical body had already been restored.
These six were all terrifying existences of the same level as King An.
Behind them were thirty six terrifying experts.
God Emperors.
Thirty six God Emperors.
Behind these thirty six God Emperors were four hundred supreme experts.
Four hundred God Kings.
Behind these God Kings were countless God Lords and God Sovereigns, with tens of thousands of God Generals.
Seeing this lineup, everyone on the Guanxuan Universe side became extremely solemn.
Was this going to be the final decisive battle?
Ye Guan looked at the woman in white at the front. “Is this a True God?”
Little Pagoda said, “No.”
At this moment, the mysterious voice inside Little Pagoda suddenly spoke. “It is a universe spirit, an Yin God, one that has devoured several thousand reincarnation civilisations. This is already bullying. You can call for help now.”
Yin God.
Ye Guan was silent for a moment, then took out Little Pagoda. “Pagoda Lord, you fight.”
Little Pagoda hurriedly said, “Damn it, she told you to call people, not call the pagoda. Listen properly. Why do you think of Pagoda Lord every time something bad happens? This will not do.”
Ye Guan was speechless.
The Yin God in white suddenly fixed her gaze on Ye Guan. Her expression was calm. “Ascend the throne? You should not have the chance.”
“Is that so?”
At this moment, a sword hum suddenly rang out from the side. In the next instant, a sword flew out of a woman’s hand.
The Qingxuan Sword.
Before everyone’s eyes, a man slowly walked out from within the Qingxuan Sword.
White hair, dark robe.
The Sword Master of the Human World.
Seeing him, all the experts of the Guanxuan Universe erupted. Many of them even slowly bowed down.
Ye Guan looked at the Sword Master of the Human World in the distance and said nothing.
The Sword Master of the Human World stepped forward. With this single step, he appeared beside Ye Guan. At this moment, a woman suddenly appeared on Ye Guan’s right.
Qin Guan.
Qin Guan suddenly took Ye Guan’s right hand, while the Sword Master of the Human World took his left hand. He smiled slightly. “Come, ascend the throne.”
As he spoke, Ye Xuan and Qin Guan led Ye Guan toward the hall in the distance.
The Sword Master of the Human World glanced at the Yin God on the right. “Try touching my son.”
The Yin God stared at Ye Xuan without speaking, her expression already extremely solemn.
Seeing that the Yin God did not move, Ye Xuan thought for a moment, then looked at Ye Guan. “Did she scare you just now?”
Ye Guan blinked. “She did.”
Ye Xuan suddenly turned and slashed with his sword.
Before anyone could react.
Chi.
Before everyone’s eyes, the Yin God had no time to react before the sword pierced her between the brows, nailing her in place.
Everyone was horrified.
Ye Xuan glanced at the Yin God with disdain. “You little nobody, coming to show off in front of my son. Do you think I am dead?”
Everyone was speechless.
