I Have A Sword

Chapter 669: Is It Over?

Shwing!

The instant Ye Guan gripped the Qingxuan Sword, he slashed it with swift precision.

The sealing force entwining him shattered instantly.

Witnessing this, the Northern Sealing Divine General's expression turned grave. In that moment, Ye Guan transformed into a streak of sword light, bearing down on him.

This strike was unlike any before. It sent chills down the Northern Sealing Divine General's spine, his whole body grew cold with dread.

There was an aura of death. At that moment, the Northern Sealing Divine General's survival instinct kicked in. His body jerked and he flew away.

Shwing!

Ye Guan's sword cleaved through the air, missing its target.

Ye Guan lifted his gaze slowly, a furrow forming on his brow as he stared at Northern Sealing Divine General who was now a thousand meters away.

The Northern Sealing Divine General's eyes were fixed on the Qingxuan Sword in Ye Guan's hand. "What kind of sword is that?"

Ye Guan responded calmly, "My father's sword."

The Northern Sealing Divine General's frown deepened. Just as he was about to ponder further, Ye Guan transformed into a streak of sword light once again, charging towards him.

Panic seized Northern Sealing Divine General. He dared not confront Ye Guan directly. His body jerked and he transformed into a black light, disappearing into the distant reaches of the starry sky.

Seeing the Northern Sealing Divine General's retreat, Ye Guan remained silent.

He chose not to give chase, knowing full well that against an opponent of Northern Sealing Divine General's caliber, pursuit would be futile.

Ye Guan closed his eyes slowly. His body pulsed with the power of two formidable bloodlines, unable to find release.

This is agonizing, I want to battle now... Erya!

"Erya, come out and fight!"

In that instant, Erya appeared before Ye Guan.

Little White blinked at Ye Guan, looking utterly astonished.

Erya glanced at Ye Guan casually. "Are you sure about this?"

"Absolutely!"

Erya vanished on the spot.

Ye Guan quickly sheathed the Qingxuan Sword, opting for a sword made from sword energy instead. He feared that he would injure Erya but in the next moment, he regretted his decision.

Bang!

Before he could react, a force struck his abdomen like a hammer. He flew backward and his fleshy body split open with blood spraying everywhere.

As he hurtled through the air, Ye Guan felt another wave of terrifying force approaching.

Ye Guan: "..."

Bang bang bang bang!

Before long, the arena resounded with heavy blows Soon, Ye Guan had to plead for mercy, "Erya, please... stop..."

Hearing Ye Guan's desperate plea, Erya halted her assault. In that moment, Ye Guan lay on the ground, barely conscious. He was utterly bewildered by the relentless beating.

Surprised by his confidence, Zhen Nanyue inquired further, "Replacements?"

Ye Guan nodded. It was necessary for key positions to be filled by trusted individuals and that was why he didn’t delegate that authority to Zhen Nanyue.

Understanding his decision, Zhen Nanyue nodded, refraining from further discussion on the matter. She knew Ye Guan wouldn't compromise on certain matters.

Suddenly, Ye Guan shifted the conversation. "Lady Nanyue, how many generals like the Northern Sealing Divine General are there in the Ancient Wilderness?"

"Each Demon King commands at least two formidable generals, each possessing at least sixty percent divinity..."

Ye Guan's expression darkened at the revelation. It seemed he had underestimated the Ancient Wilderness. If even the generals possessed such power, what about the Demon Kings and that Demon God?

Damn it, I need help. Ye Guan asked inwardly, “Erya, can you contact my mother?”

Because he was too far away from her, he could not rely on a transmission talisman.

Upon hearing his request, Erya was taken aback. "Why do you need to contact them?"

"Someone strong is coming after me. I need reinforcements."

"Grandson, with me around, who would dare to bully you? Just let me handle the troublemakers, you can create trouble all you want."

Ye Guan was speechless. Erya can fight but she and Little White are so unreliable. Sometimes they create trouble for our own people but I can’t possibly ask for more help since she has said this

"You're right. With you here, I don’t have anyone to fear, not even my father. I will slap him if I have to”

"I'll let Little Xuan know when I see him."

Ye Guan chuckled nervously.

At that moment, Zhen Nanyue interjected, "While you've defeated the Northern Sealing Divine General, the Ancient Wilderness won't take it lightly. Reputation means everything to them."

Ye Guan nodded understandingly.

“Your family...”

“Lady Nanyue, can I request for the Zhen Clan’s help ?” “I can lend some assistance, do you want me to monitor the Ancient Wilderness?”

“Yes.”

“That’s not a problem. I will inform you if they make any move. However, if their Demon King intervened personally, there's a limit to what I can do.”

"Understood."

"The Dao Market is about to open. Your people need to arrive as soon as possible. Also..."

Handing him a ledger, she added, "This ledger contains records of all the goods stored in the market warehouses. However, most of it cannot be accessed as the Dao Markets require funds for circulation. Take a look to get a better understanding of the Dao Markets under our control."

"You can take over the arrangements for the Dao Market next. As for the managers, I'll handle it."

Zhen Nanyue nodded in agreement. "Take care," she said before turning and leaving.

After Zhen Nanyue departed, Ye Guan glanced around before entering the little pagoda.

Meanwhile, on the other side, two figures watched Ye Guan as he disappeared.

It was the lady in plain skirt and the Sword Master.

The Sword Master looked up at the distant sky and murmured softly, "The Ancient Wilderness..."

Beside him, the lady in plain skirts asked calmly, "Should I destroy it?"
