The newcomer was none other than An Lanxiu, who had been gone for a long, long time!
An Lanxiu!
Since she had left with Qing’er for the Milky Way, she and Ye Xuan hadn’t seen each other. Ye Xuan never expected that An Lanxiu would appear at this moment!
Seeing An Lanxiu, Ye Xuan was both shocked and overjoyed!
An Lanxiu walked up to Ye Xuan, saying, “I’ll hold her off!”
Ye Xuan nodded, “Alright!”
Without any unnecessary words, An Lanxiu charged forward, thrusting her spear towards Nalan Ming in the distance!
Ye Xuan didn’t waste time either, soaring into the air on his sword, vanishing into the depths of the starry sky.
Soon after, Ye Xuan came to a halt.
Not far ahead stood a man!
The man wore a simple white robe, holding a long blade in his right hand.
Ye Xuan looked at the man, “You’re the one on par with Nalan Ming!”
The man nodded.
Ye Xuan suddenly vanished from his spot!
Swoosh!
A streak of sword light slashed towards the man, tearing through everything in its path.
In the distance, the man slowly closed his eyes. As the sword light reached him, he abruptly drew his blade and slashed!
Swoosh!
Ye Xuan’s sword light was instantly torn apart, but at that moment, a sword stabbed towards the man’s forehead!
The man blocked with his blade!
Clang!
A crisp sound of metal clashing rang out, and the man was forced back repeatedly. As he retreated, countless intent swords rained down like a storm!
The man’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he suddenly slashed horizontally.
Swoosh!
In an instant, the space before him was shredded into a ten-thousand-zhang abyss!
Countless intent swords shattered!
But at that moment, seven of Ye Xuan’s clones suddenly appeared around the man, and seven sword lights slashed down in unison!
A glint of ferocity flashed in the man’s eyes. He swept his blade in a wide arc, unleashing a tide of blade light.
Boom!
Ye Xuan’s seven clones were forced back, but the man was also pushed thousands of zhang away! As he retreated, the Qingxuan Sword suddenly slashed towards him!
A ruthless glint flashed in the man’s eyes. He stomped his right foot, slashing down with his blade!
Boom!
The blade clashed directly with the Qingxuan Sword, causing it to tremble violently. The man’s blade cracked, and the surrounding space shattered!
Seeing his long blade break, the man’s pupils constricted. At that moment, Ye Xuan gripped his sword with both hands and pressed forward with force!
Boom!
The man’s blade shattered into countless fragments!
Ye Xuan slashed down!
Boom!
The man was sent flying ten thousand zhang, and a massive sword mark, ten thousand zhang long, appeared between him and Ye Xuan!
When the man stopped, his white robe was torn, revealing a black soft armour underneath, now bearing a deep crack!
The armour had blocked Ye Xuan’s strike!
Ye Xuan glanced at the man’s armour, his expression calm.
The man looked at Ye Xuan, “Your sword is exceptional!”
Ye Xuan didn’t respond, slowly closing his eyes.
Boom!
In an instant, countless Human Realm Sword Intents surged from his body, and moments later, over a hundred thousand intent swords appeared behind him!
Seeing this, the man’s eyes narrowed. He opened his palm, and a long blade appeared in his hand. Gripping it tightly, countless blade intents surged from him, his aura reaching its peak!
Ye Xuan suddenly vanished.
Buzz!
A sharp sword hum echoed through the starfield!
As Ye Xuan disappeared, the hundred thousand intent swords vanished with him!
In the distance, a glint of menace flashed in the man’s eyes. He charged forward, slashing down!
Boom!
In an instant, a wave of blade energy clashed head-on with Ye Xuan’s sword!
Boom!
Suddenly, the silent starfield trembled violently, with countless blade lights and sword energies shattering! But soon, the starfield filled with new waves of sword and blade energy!
This continued for nearly half an hour before the starfield gradually calmed.
At that moment, Ye Xuan stood a thousand zhang behind the man!
The man was hunched over, an intent sword lodged in his chest!
Looking at the sword, the man murmured, “A swift sword!”
In the distance, Ye Xuan opened his palm, and the intent sword in the man’s body soared into the sky, obliterating his soul!
Ye Xuan didn’t linger, his form flickering as he vanished into the starry depths!
Soon, Ye Xuan arrived in an unknown starfield. He glanced around, “Anyou!”
As his voice fell, a shadow appeared before him.
Ye Xuan looked at Anyou, “Where is she?”
Anyou turned, and an old man approached—it was Elder Fa.
Elder Fa suddenly pointed, and a blue spatial teleportation array appeared before Ye Xuan!
Elder Fa looked at Ye Xuan, bowing deeply, “Please, Young Master Ye, save the young lady!”
Anyou also bowed deeply!
Ye Xuan said, “As long as I live, she won’t die!”
With that, he stepped into the teleportation array.
Boom!
In an instant, Ye Xuan transformed into a beam of light and vanished.
After an unknown time, Ye Xuan opened his eyes to find himself in a pitch-black world!
His expression darkened.
This was a shattered world!
Clearly, a fierce battle had taken place!
Ye Xuan scanned his surroundings and soon spotted An Nanjing, facing off against the Divine Priestess!
The Divine Priestess now looked farрит

utterly grave, her staff covered in cracks!
Seeing Ye Xuan, the Divine Priestess frowned slightly.
An Nanjing suddenly said, “Go help Miss Qin!”
She pointed to the right.
Ye Xuan nodded, his form flickering into a streak of sword light, vanishing into the distance.
The Divine Priestess looked at An Nanjing, “You can’t save her!”
An Nanjing’s brows furrowed, “Such nonsense!”
As her words fell, she vanished from her spot, thrusting her spear forward!
Boom!
The spear struck like a dragon, shaking the heavens and earth!
The Divine Priestess’s expression grew grave once more!
This woman before her was not as easy to deal with as Ye Xuan…
…
Ye Xuan rode his sword to another part of the starry sky. Just as he entered, a deafening explosion rang out, followed by a terrifying shockwave surging towards him!
Ye Xuan’s pupils constricted. He charged forward, gripping his sword with both hands and slashing down fiercely!
Swoosh!
His sword tore through the shockwave, but another, even stronger wave surged forward!
A glint of ferocity flashed in Ye Xuan’s eyes. He twisted his wrist, charged again, and slashed down with force!
Swoosh!
Like an arrow loosed from a bow, Ye Xuan tore through the waves with unstoppable momentum, shredding them to pieces!
Soon, Ye Xuan broke through the layers of shockwaves and arrived in a new starfield. There, he saw Qin Guan, surrounded and attacked by three figures: the one called Tianming, an old man, and a woman!
Ye Xuan recognised the woman—it was Mingxin from the Divine Underworld Empire!
He hadn’t seen the old man before. The old man wore pitch-black battle armour, wielding a black spear, his aura immensely terrifying!
In the centre of the three, Qin Guan held a gun with both hands!
The very gun with a billion bullets!
Seeing this, Ye Xuan couldn’t help but shake his head with a smile!
This divine artefact was simply too terrifying.
At that moment, Mingxin and the others noticed Ye Xuan. Seeing him, Mingxin’s brows furrowed.
Qin Guan also saw Ye Xuan. She suddenly pointed upwards, “There’s a mysterious powerhouse up there!”
Ye Xuan looked up sharply but saw only darkness, sensing nothing!
A mysterious powerhouse!
Without hesitation, Ye Xuan appeared beside Qin Guan. He glanced around, then asked, “Need help?”
Qin Guan nodded.
Ye Xuan said, “Tell me!”
Qin Guan said earnestly, “Call for help!”
Ye Xuan’s expression froze.
Qin Guan said seriously, “Little Xuan, you can’t beat these people yet. Is there anyone you can call?”
Ye Xuan thought for a moment, then said, “I don’t think there’s anyone left! But…”
He glanced at the three in the field, “I can take one!”
Qin Guan looked at Ye Xuan, “You sure?”
Ye Xuan nodded, “Certain!”
Qin Guan smiled, “Who do you want to fight?”
Without thinking, Ye Xuan pointed at Mingxin. Mingxin’s expression remained calm, “Come on, then!”
Without a word, Ye Xuan transformed into a streak of sword light and vanished.
Mingxin’s eyes narrowed. She leapt up, stomping down fiercely!
Boom!
Her stomp shattered a wave of sword light, sending Ye Xuan and his sword flying ten thousand zhang away!
Mingxin withdrew her foot, lightly brushing her sleeve, her expression calm, “King of Backers, do you think I’m weak?”
In the distance, Ye Xuan wiped blood from his mouth. He turned to Qin Guan, who said earnestly, “This woman’s strength is hidden!”
Ye Xuan turned to Tianming, who remained silent, his expression calm!
Ye Xuan considered, then looked at the old man. The old man said lightly, “You can choose me!”
Ye Xuan slowly closed his eyes. Within him, his bloodline began to boil!
Boom!
In an instant, Ye Xuan transformed into a figure of blood!
Qin Guan blinked, “Is this… your bloodline power?”
Ye Xuan nodded.
Qin Guan studied him, then nodded, “Interesting! Lend me some blood someday, I’ll study it to see how to help you break through your bloodline quickly!”
Ye Xuan turned to Qin Guan, “Is that possible?”
Qin Guan nodded, “It is! If you can, give me a bit more, I could craft some bloodline weapons!”
Ye Xuan’s face darkened instantly.
As he prepared to act, Qin Guan suddenly grabbed his arm, shaking her head, “There are too many of them, you can’t win!”
She glanced at Mingxin and the others, then smiled, “Little Xuan, want to see the power of money?”
Ye Xuan said gravely, “Sure!”
Qin Guan grinned, then declared, “Spread my Qin Guan decree: across the myriad universes, whoever aids me will be rewarded ten billion cosmic yuan veins! Ten billion per hour, no time limit!”
Ye Xuan: “…”
Soon, Qin Guan’s decree spread across the countless universes through the Immortal Treasure Pavilion’s vast machinery.
In a certain abyss, a dark figure appeared before a coffin, trembling as it spoke, “Ancestor, a fight? Ten billion cosmic yuan veins per hour, no time limit…”
The coffin lid suddenly opened, and an aged hand reached out, exclaiming excitedly, “Help me up…”
