Let’s go!
Ye Xuan remained silent!
As the Master of the Great Path had said, if Qing’er were gone, the order he had established would collapse instantly!
Everything now rested on Qing’er!
Was that wrong?
Of course not!
Ye Xuan wasn’t rigid.
Using Qing’er’s strength to build a new order and improve himself was certainly not wrong. The mistake was not fully recognising this and not working hard enough to elevate himself!
Moreover, he really needed to mature!
Building a new order wasn’t child’s play!
Managing the universe was even less so!
With this in mind, Ye Xuan sighed softly. It was time to change himself!
Less flashiness, less showing off!
At that moment, Gu suddenly walked to the side. Ye Xuan looked at her as she approached a body!
It was her own body!
But it wasn’t a little girl; it was an adult woman in white, hands folded over her chest.
Gu slowly extended her right hand. As it touched the body, she turned into a white light and merged into it!
Boom!
A terrifying aura erupted in the area!
In an instant, Ye Xuan felt his order was about to collapse!
Just from a single wave of pressure!
Then, Gu slowly opened her eyes, a hint of confusion in them, but they gradually cleared. Moments later, her lips curved into a smile!
Ye Xuan looked at Gu but said nothing!
Gu suddenly stood and turned to Ye Xuan, smiling. “Young Master Ye!”
With a gentle wave of her right hand, the terrifying pressure vanished!
Ye Xuan smiled. “Congratulations, Miss Gu!”
Gu walked slowly to Ye Xuan and smiled. “I must thank you for your righteous help!”
Ye Xuan looked at Gu. “Were your words to the Master of the Great Path true?”
Gu blinked. “About turning over a new leaf?”
Ye Xuan nodded.
Gu smiled. “Young Master Ye, if I kept doing evil, would you kill me?”
Ye Xuan shook his head. “I wouldn’t! Because I can’t beat you! But…”
He looked at Gu. “I’d have my sister kill you!”
Gu met Ye Xuan’s gaze. After a moment, she smiled. “Don’t worry, I won’t do evil!”
Ye Xuan nodded. “Good!”
He turned to leave!
As Ye Xuan left the ancient tower, he noticed Gu following!
Gu smiled. “Young Master Ye, let me follow you!”
Ye Xuan glanced at her. “Why follow me?”
Gu smiled slightly. “You helped me. I must repay the kindness! Let me stay with you for a while! During this time, I can help you fight!”
Ye Xuan thought for a moment and said, “Alright!”
Gu glanced at Ye Xuan, smiled, and said nothing!
Ye Xuan suddenly said, “Miss Gu, you were an order establisher in the ancient era, right?”
Gu nodded.
Ye Xuan said earnestly, “I want to establish a new order. Can you offer some guidance?”
After a moment’s silence, Gu said, “Is it for yourself or for all beings?”
Ye Xuan said, “For myself and for all beings!”
Gu smiled. “What if there’s a conflict?”
Ye Xuan looked at Gu, who smiled. “What if there’s a conflict?”
After a pause, Ye Xuan said, “For all beings!”
Gu shook her head. “Young Master Ye, you’re not someone who would sacrifice yourself for others! So, you can’t sacrifice yourself for all beings! For you, you want to make the world better while improving yourself, right?”
Ye Xuan nodded.
Gu smiled. “As the Master of the Great Path said, your idea is good, but you haven’t realised how troublesome and difficult it is to establish a new order! Especially a lawful one. It’s not just difficult; this world lacks absolute fairness. The strong often won’t reason with the weak. If I can settle things with one punch, why bother talking?”
She glanced at Ye Xuan and smiled. “Don’t you often do this yourself?”
Ye Xuan shook his head and smiled. “I try reasoning first. If they don’t listen, then I use my fists!”
Gu smiled and said, “So, what’s more effective, reasoning or fists?”
Ye Xuan said gravely, “Fists, naturally!”
Gu nodded. “Exactly! That’s why everyone believes in fists! Strength is everything. Without it, no amount of reasoning helps!”
She shook her head slightly. “As the Master of the Great Path said, there’s no absolute fairness in this world. Even we can’t be absolutely fair!”
Ye Xuan fell silent.
Gu smiled. “But you can try!”
Ye Xuan smiled and said, “So, you’re not optimistic about it?”
Gu nodded. “I’m not. It’s incredibly hard! Especially now, with people’s greed and selfishness. If someone gains power, who doesn’t act in their own interest?”
She looked at Ye Xuan. “You can control yourself, but not everyone around you!”
After a moment’s silence, Ye Xuan said, “I’ll take it slowly!”
Gu nodded. “Yes!”
She glanced at Ye Xuan’s abdomen and smiled. “My body and soul just merged. Can I stay in your little tower for a while?”
Little tower!
Ye Xuan froze, his face darkening!
This woman was after his little tower!
Gu smiled. “And I can help you improve your Ancient Battle Body!”
Ye Xuan said gravely, “The Ancient Saint Fruit…”
Gu laughed. “I have it!”
Ye Xuan sighed softly!
This woman deliberately gave him the Ancient Battle Body but withheld the Ancient Saint Fruit, aiming to make him bring her to the Ancient Heavenly Domain!
What a scheme!
Ye Xuan didn’t dwell on it and nodded. “Enter the little tower!”
He truly needed her help now, not just for the Ancient Battle Body but in other ways too!
With Ye Xuan’s consent, Gu grinned. “Great!”
She entered the little tower!
Ye Xuan shook his head. This woman didn’t seem like someone who, as the Master of the Great Path claimed, harmed an era’s beings!
You really can’t judge by appearances!
He needed to be more cautious!
As a thought struck him, Ye Xuan took out Sword Spirit and said, “Sword Spirit, you said the Burial Mirror can enhance my bloodline?”
After a moment, Sword Spirit said, “Yes! The mirror contains boundless killing blood energy, perfect for boosting your bloodline power!”
Ye Xuan said gravely, “How do I use it?”
Sword Spirit said, “Absorb it directly!”
Ye Xuan activated the Burial Mirror, and instantly, it turned into a blood light and merged into his forehead!
Boom!
Ye Xuan’s eyes widened, a sea of blood surging in his gaze!
At that moment, he saw endless slaughter!
Sword Spirit’s voice rang out. “Stay clear. Don’t let the killing intent erode your mind!”
Ye Xuan nodded slightly, striving to remain calm and clear!
Sword Spirit said, “Activate your Mad Demon Bloodline and start devouring!”
Ye Xuan immediately activated his Mad Demon Bloodline!
Boom!
A blood light shot from his body into the sky!
Bloodline activated!
As it activated, his Mad Demon Bloodline began frantically devouring the Burial Mirror!
At that moment, Gu appeared nearby, glancing at Ye Xuan with a flash of surprise. “What a unique bloodline power!”
Sword Spirit also appeared nearby!
Gu glanced at Sword Spirit and smiled. “You’re the sword spirit!”
Sword Spirit ignored Gu!
Gu laughed. “What a spirited sword!”
Sword Spirit said calmly, “Why are you following him?”
Gu smiled slightly. “He’s got a bright future. I’m hitching a ride!”
Sword Spirit glanced at Gu and said, “Do as you please!”
Gu smiled and said, “What bloodline is this? It’s quite unique!”
Sword Spirit said, “Unyielding Mad Demon Bloodline!”
Gu shook her head slightly. “Never heard of it!”
Sword Spirit looked at Ye Xuan, silent.
At that moment, Ye Xuan’s blood was boiling, and as his Mad Demon Bloodline fully activated, his mind began to be eroded by killing intent!
Sword Spirit said gravely, “You must stay clear, or your bloodline will control you!”
Ye Xuan nodded, opening his palm. Countless Human Sword Intents surged from his body!
Absorbing while suppressing!
Nearby, Gu glanced at Sword Spirit but said nothing!
In the distance, Ye Xuan’s aura grew stronger. The surrounding starry sky gradually turned blood-red, spreading at a terrifying speed!
Seeing this, Sword Spirit’s expression grew solemn!
She knew Ye Xuan was about to break through!
After about a day, Ye Xuan, standing in the starry sky, suddenly opened his eyes. Two blood-red sword lights shot from them!
Swish swish!
The blood-red sword lights pierced through the galaxy!
Sword Spirit looked at Ye Xuan, now a blood-soaked figure, radiating terrifying killing intent!
Ye Xuan opened his palm, and a blood sword condensed within it!
A sword formed from blood!
Ye Xuan suddenly looked at Sword Spirit, his eyes filled with killing intent!
Sword Spirit remained calm. “How does it feel?”
Ye Xuan’s voice was hoarse. “I want to kill!”
His blood was boiling, his mind consumed by one thought!
Kill!
Kill the world!
The killing intent was almost beyond his control.
Sword Spirit nodded slightly. “Your bloodline is at a critical point, just a step from breaking through!”
Ye Xuan said gravely, “Just a step?”
Sword Spirit nodded. “The final step!”
She looked at Ye Xuan. “Don’t suppress your bloodline. Let it fully release!”
Ye Xuan’s voice trembled. “Are you sure?”
Sword Spirit nodded. “Sure!”
Ye Xuan thought for a moment, then withdrew all his Human Sword Intent, no longer suppressing his Mad Demon Bloodline!
Boom!
Instantly, a blood light erupted from his body, annihilating the surrounding space-time!
Fully maddened!
