Hearing Hongchen’s words, Ye Xuan shook his head with a laugh. He had to admit, this woman was genuinely ferocious!
In the distance, Qintian Dao’s expression had turned extremely grave.
Back in his day, he had few rivals in the world, yet now he realised that Hongchen’s power was simply terrifying. He was utterly incapable of contending with her!
There truly were always people beyond people, heavens beyond heaven!
At that moment, Hongchen suddenly said, “I’m leaving!”
Ye Xuan looked at her. “Leaving?”
Hongchen nodded. “I want to go out and take a look around!”
Ye Xuan thought for a second, then said, “Lady Hongchen, I am currently fighting against the gods. Would you be willing to stay and lend me a hand?”
Hongchen’s brows creased slightly. “Gods?”
Ye Xuan nodded. “Yes! The gods have made a comeback, and this universe is in peril. If you have nowhere else to go, would you consider staying to help me?”
Hongchen pondered for a moment, then asked, “Young Master, your sister is not in this universe?”
Ye Xuan nodded.
After a brief silence, Hongchen said, “Young Master, forgive my candour, but if your sister does not act, I’m afraid you will struggle to resist those gods!”
Ye Xuan frowned. “How so?”
Hongchen said earnestly, “Those gods are no simple matter. I once came into contact with them. Their world completely suppresses ours on a dimensional level. When we fight them, victory is almost impossible!”
Ye Xuan smiled. “I know. I’ve already crossed swords with them. They possess immortal bodies, which is indeed troublesome, but we can’t just sit and wait for death, can we?”
Hongchen suddenly pointed at Ye Xuan’s Qingxuan Sword. “The one who forged this sword should be able to truly kill those gods.”
Ye Xuan nodded. “I know, but I don’t want her to intervene!”
Hongchen’s brows knitted. Soon, as if she realised something, she said gravely, “Young Master Ye wants to surpass himself?”
Ye Xuan was slightly taken aback!
This woman appeared carefree and straightforward, yet her mind was incredibly sharp!
Hongchen continued, “I understand!”
Ye Xuan said seriously, “Lady Hongchen, what do you think?”
Hongchen fell silent.
Ye Xuan smiled. “If it’s too much trouble, then…”
He paused, then added, “How about helping me for a hundred years? After a hundred years, you may leave freely. How does that sound?”
At those words, Qintian Dao’s expression froze solid!
Bloody hell!
I thought you were going to say “if it’s too much trouble, forget it”!
Hearing Ye Xuan, Hongchen shook her head with a laugh. “Young Master Ye, the way you put that gave me a fright!”
Ye Xuan laughed. “I truly need your help far too much!”
This was an expert. No matter what, he could not let her slip away!
Hongchen considered it, then said, “Young Master Ye, could you do me a favour?”
Ye Xuan grew curious. “What favour?”
Hongchen said gravely, “I want to return to my homeland, but that place has been sealed by the Cosmic Spirit! Your sword can break the seal. Would you be willing to help me lift it?”
Ye Xuan smiled. “Of course!”
Hongchen gave a faint smile. “Thank you!”
Ye Xuan glanced around, then said, “Shall we go now?”
Hongchen nodded. “Alright!”
Ye Xuan looked at Qin Guan. She said, “Give me your tower. I need to go back and make some bombs!”
Make bombs!
Ye Xuan shook his head with a laugh. He spread his palm, and the small tower flew to Qin Guan. She grinned. “Wait for my good news!”
With that, she turned to the little elf, Shurou, and the Weapon Spirit. “Are you coming with me, or…?”
Shurou pointed at the small tower. “I’m going inside!”
The Weapon Spirit quickly added, “Me too!”
Clearly, they all wanted to cultivate inside.
Qin Guan looked at Qintian Dao. He said gravely, “I’ll enter the small tower as well!”
The little elf blinked, then flew to Ye Xuan’s side. “I’ll go play with big brother!”
Qin Guan laughed. “Fine!”
She collected everyone into the small tower. Just as she was about to leave, she seemed to remember something. She walked up to Ye Xuan and took out a storage ring, placing it in front of him. “This is for you!”
Ye Xuan glanced at the ring. Inside were over a million Spirit Origin crystals!
He looked at Qin Guan. She smiled. “A man needs to keep some money on him!”
With that, she turned and vanished on the spot!
Ye Xuan was a little puzzled. This Little Guan rarely ever fought, yet she could come and go freely throughout the universe!
It was simply outrageous!
At that moment, Hongchen suddenly spoke from beside him. “Young Master Ye, this lady is no ordinary person!”
Ye Xuan looked at her. “How so?”
Hongchen said gravely, “She gives me a faint sense of danger!”
Ye Xuan shook his head with a laugh. “She says she never cultivates!”
Hongchen shook her head. “She does cultivate!”
Ye Xuan said gravely, “But I can’t sense any aura from her at all!”
Hongchen said softly, “She definitely cultivates!”
Ye Xuan frowned. Hongchen continued softly, “Moreover, this girl’s talent is absolutely terrifying!”
Ye Xuan grew curious. “Could you explain in more detail?”
Hongchen said, “When she disappeared just now, you didn’t sense any spatial fluctuation, right?”
Ye Xuan nodded. “That’s right!”
Hongchen said softly, “Her cultivation method must be completely different from ours!”
Ye Xuan fell silent.
Could Little Guan be a hidden peerless expert?
Thinking about it, he couldn’t help but laugh and shake his head.
In the past, whenever Qin Guan acted, it was always with various kinds of bombs. He had never seen her fight personally, so he had assumed she did not cultivate!
Now that he thought about it, that was abnormal!
All those previous realms had been created by Qin Guan. How could someone capable of creating martial realms possibly not cultivate?
At that moment, the little elf also spoke up. “Sister Qin Guan really is very amazing!”
Ye Xuan looked at the little elf. She said earnestly, “She’s so good at snatching things!”
Ye Xuan burst out laughing!
Snatching things!
He had to admit, every treasure they had obtained here had ended up in Qin Guan’s little cloth bag!
Just then, Hongchen’s brows suddenly furrowed!
Ye Xuan’s brows also creased at the same instant. He looked up. The entire heaven and earth had suddenly turned illusory!
Ye Xuan narrowed his eyes!
Beside him, the little elf said gravely, “The Cosmic Spirit is here! It’s coming!”
The Cosmic Spirit!
Ye Xuan looked towards the horizon. At that moment, space there tore open. Immediately afterwards, a terrifyingly powerful aura swept downward!
Boom!
All of a sudden, the entire world began to shatter bit by bit.
Ye Xuan’s expression instantly turned grave. He had never encountered such a horrifying presence!
Compared to this aura, even the gods he had met before were less than ants!
Even his Mortal Sword Intent seemed utterly insignificant before this terrifying might!
So this was a Cosmic Spirit that had cultivated through over a thousand cycles?
Beside him, Hongchen narrowed her eyes. Her right hand slowly clenched as a dreadful power gathered in her palm!
At that moment, a shadowy figure appeared on the horizon.
It looked down at Ye Xuan below. “You took my things and freed the person I sealed. Do you really think so little of me?”
Ye Xuan thought for a moment, then spread his palm and lightly waved it. An image of Qing’er appeared, drawn by him!
Ye Xuan looked at the Cosmic Spirit. “Let me introduce you. This is my sister!”
After a long silence, the Cosmic Spirit said, “Are you threatening me? Let me tell you, I only respond to kindness, not coercion!”
Ye Xuan said earnestly, “Can we talk this over?”
The Cosmic Spirit nodded. “Of course we can talk. Come, let’s sit down and discuss calmly. No need to ruin our friendship over mere worldly possessions!”
As it spoke, that terrifying pressure vanished completely.
Hongchen: “…”
