Chapter 213: Destiny, The Goddess!
A hand grabbed Little White’s shivering claw before she could press any of the buttons.
Ye Guan held Little White’s claw tightly, and he was drenched in cold sweat as he stared at Little White.
Little White blinked innocently at Ye Guan.
Ye Guan pondered over his words carefully before saying, “I don’t think your help is needed this time! I-I can do it myself!”
Ye Guan had bit his lips so hard out of nervousness that his lips started bleeding. He wiped the blood on the corner of his lips away as he sighed in relief. If he had allowed Little White to help him, he would have died along with his enemies.
It would be such a horrible and vain death.
Just then, Mu Niannian yelled, “Let’s go!”
Ye Guan made sure that Little White was secure on his shoulder before turning into a beam of sword light that streaked across the starry skies.
Swoosh!
The Path Sword in Ye Guan’s hand destroyed everything in its path.
Ye Guan and Mu Niannian quickly carved a path in the middle of their enemies.
Rumble!
The space ahead of them abruptly split open. A terrifying aura rushed out of the rift.
Again?! Mu Niannian’s eyes narrowed. She slashed out and carved a spacetime tunnel in front of Ye Guan. She then turned to Ye Guan and said, “Lead them to the Xuzhen Battlefield. We’ll follow you closely.”
Ye Guan was silent.
Mu Niannian was about to say something again when Ye Guan suddenly turned toward the Guanxuan Universe cultivators and shouted, “Let’s go! Follow me”
A glint of admiration fleeted across Mu Niannian’s eyes.
An argument would have been a foolish endeavor and a waste of time. It was a good thing that Ye Guan hadn’t done that and had agreed to her proposal.
With that, Ye Guan led the Guanxuan Universe cultivators into the spacetime tunnel.
Mu Niannian caught sight of Little White on Ye Guan’s shoulders.
Little White looked at Mu Niannian and grinned while waving her claws.
Mu Niannian pointed to Ye Guan and waved at Little White, prompting her to look at Ye Guan. Little White nodded and gestured with her claws.
Mu Niannian smiled and gave her a thumbs up.
Little White’s grin deepened, and she hurled an egg-like object the size of a watermelon to Mu Niannian.
Mu Niannian shook her head and chuckled, but she accepted it. Yeah, I think Qin Guan is the only one who can play with this bomb.
Meanwhile, Ye Guan and the others were already deep into the spacetime tunnel.
Mu Niannian turned to look at the Divine Spirits.
Tianxiu was beside Mu Niannian, and she frowned deeply.
“What happened at the Xuzhen Battlefield? Are they struggling there?” she asked.
“I have no idea, but something must have happened there,” replied Mu Niannian.
Tianxiu went silent.
Mu Niannian swept her gaze across the Divine Spirits.
“The denizens of the True Universe will not let Ye Guan live once they learn of his existence,” she said.
Tianxiu asked, “Will Destiny make a move?”
“I don’t think so,” Mu Niannian answered with a shake of her head.
Tianxiu frowned, “Why not?”
Mu Niannian explained, “First of all, she’s still waiting for Little Xuan to make that step. Secondly, she doesn’t really care about the True World, and lastly, Little Guan’s mental state will be disrupted if she makes a move.
“Little Guan still thinks of her as a Great Sword Sovereign, so if Destiny appears and she kills the riffraff here in one strike…”
Mu Niannian paused to laugh before continuing. “It is impossible to remain unshaken upon witnessing Destiny’s might. More importantly, Little Xuan has also embarked on the Invincible Sword Dao, and I’m afraid his Invincible Sword Dao will shatter once he sees Destiny’s true might.
”It wouldn’t have been such an issue if Destiny were from the same generation as him, but…”
Mu Niannian grew silent. Tianxiu went silent as well. The two belonged to the generation that was unfortunate enough to witness Destiny’s true might. Destiny’s true might was enough to make anyone feel despair at the thought of facing her.
In fact, most of the people from their generation thought of Destiny as a goddess.
Thirty million years ago, Ye Xuan fought the toughest battle of his life, but he didn’t ask Qing’er for help, not even once. The elites from Ye Xuan’s generation also suffered a mental breakdown upon witnessing Destiny’s true might.
How could they not suffer a mental breakdown upon realizing that no matter how hard they cultivated, there was no way they could surpass Destiny?
Destiny was just that strong.
Just then, Mu Niannian said, “I actually think that Destiny is a much more dangerous enemy of the Guanxuan Universe compared to the True World. The True God of the True World would not make a move, but Destiny doesn't care about any agreement. If it weren’t for Little Xuan, she would have destroyed the Guanxuan Universe back then.
Tianxiu nodded in understanding. She turned to look in the distance. “The universe’s destruction or whatnot doesn’t matter. His safety is all that matters.”
They didn’t have any particular attachment to the Guanxuan Universe. They only came here to help because Ye Guan was a member of the Yang Family.
“Heh.” Mu Niannian suddenly broke out into a grin before shouting, “All right! Let’s kill to our heart’s content!”
Swoosh!
She turned into a beam of sword light and streaked across the starry skies.
Tianxiu became a beam of dim light and chased after her.
……
The fight between Ruler An and Ruler Cang was still ongoing.
An Nanjing and the other two girls stared closely at Ruler An.
At last, An Nanjing finally shouted, “Go!”
Swoosh!
The three vanished into thin air.
At the same time, Ruler An flipped over her palm, and a rune burned fiercely.
Her figure turned illusory. She had decided to burn her soul and her fleshly body. It seemed that she expected the three girls to attack her at the same time, and her guess ended up being correct.
Boom!
A powerful explosion tore through spacetime, creating a spacetime tunnel that Ruler An hurriedly entered as a beam of fiery light. She rushed down the spacetime tunnel at incredible speeds that she disappeared in the proverbial blink of an eye.
Ruler Cang was stunned.
She used her soul as fuel and sacrificed her fleshly body just to escape?
An Nanjing and the two girls frowned deeply.
Ruler An’s ruthlessness caught them off guard.
An Nanjing turned toward Ruler Cang.
Ruler Cang went pale, and he became filled with regrets. If he had known that this would happen, he wouldn’t have taunted Ruler An and would have established an alliance with her to try and get rid of the three girls.
Unfortunately, Ruler An had already escaped, leaving Ruler Cang alone to fend for himself.
Could he still make it? No, it was too late!
“Kill him!” An Nanjing spat coldly.
The figures of the three girls blurred as they rushed toward the pale Ruler Cang.
It’s over!
Multiple explosions echoed throughout the starry skies, and Ruler Cang’s head was soon sent flying away.
Ruler Cang was dead, so An Nanjing decisively said, “Let’s go!”
An Nanjing waved her sleeve and carved a spacetime tunnel.
The three girls walked into it and soon disappeared into the tunnel.
…….
Meanwhile, Ye Guan had decided to pick up the pace while standing at the helm of his group.
Li Banzhi informed Ye Guan, “We are about to reach.”
Ye Guan asked, “Did we lose control over the Xuzhen Battlefield?”
Li Banzhi couldn’t answer.
She had zero idea of what was happening over the Xuzhen Battlefield.
Eventually, Li Banzhi could only say, “They’re fine. Don’t worry.”
Ye Guan could only shake his head and laugh.
Looking back, things had escalated too quickly over the past two days.
His enemies had also become drastically more powerful.
Rumble!
A rift in space abruptly manifested ahead of them, and a beam of sword light emerged from it.
Ye Guan immediately took on a stance and stared at the oncoming sword light with wary eyes.
The beam of sword light dissipated, revealing the figure of a woman.
Ye Guan was surprised. The woman was Great Sword Sovereign Ah Luo!
Li Banzhi sighed in relief upon seeing Ah Luo. Ah Luo was here, which meant that they still had some degree of control over the Xuzhen Battlefield.
Ah Luo approached Ye Guan.
She stared at him carefully before saying, “We’re going to the Xuzhen Holy Hall!”
Ye Guan asked, “Why are we going there?”
Ah Luo replied, “You have to ascend to the throne!"
Ye Guan was stunned. “My father is dead?”
Everyone froze.
Ah Luo’s expression turned strange.
Chen Guanzi tugged on Ye Guan’s sleeve and chided, “Junior Disciple Brother, you should be respectful… he’s still your father.”
Ye Guan chuckled. It seemed that Master Pagoda’s attitude had influenced him.
Ah Luo glanced at Ye Guan and said, “He’s still alive, but you have to inherit his position.”
Ye Guan asked in confusion, “Why?”
“To boost the morale of the army!” explained Ah Luo.
Ye Guan was about to say something, but the surrounding spacetime quivered violently.
Ye Guan sensed the approach of dozens of cultivators.
Ye Guan’s expression grew serious.
“Disciples of the Sword Sect!” Ah Luo shouted.
Buzz!
A hundred swordsmen suddenly rushed out of the spacetime tunnel.
Ye Guan stared in awe at the swordsmen. It was an incredible sight to see a hundred Sword Sovereigns flying at once. The Sword Sovereigns soon reached the end of the tunnel, and Ye Guan heard the sound of metal clashing against metal from the other side of the spacetime tunnel.
Ah Luo suddenly grabbed Ye Guan’s hand.
“Let’s go! They’re waiting for you!” she said.
Ye Guan was at a loss for words. Who was waiting for him?
Ah Luo went silent and dragged Ye Guan away.
Everyone else hurriedly chased after her.
Ye Guan inwardly asked, “Master Pagoda, I-I’m about to ascend the throne. What should I do? What should I say? Shouldn’t I prepare something? I really have no idea what to do!”
Little Pagoda pondered silently for a moment before replying, “Just say what you want to say!”
Ye Guan thought about it before nodding. “Okay.”
“Master Pagoda, I’m starting to get a bit nervous…” he added.
“Haha!” Little Pagoda burst out into laughter. This little bastard actually knows how to get nervous?!
Ye Guan looked ahead and saw a speck of dazzling dot in the distance. It was none other than the Xuzhen World, and it seemed to be only a hundred meters away from him.
Ye Guan’s nervousness reached its peak. He was about to witness a battlefield on the scale of an entire world, and he still had no idea why he had to ascend the throne and become the new King of the Guanxuan Universe.
He was just a disciple of the Ye Clan of Nanzhou not too long ago, but now, he was about to become the king of an entire universe. It was so surreal that Ye Guan couldn’t quite believe it.
Ye Guan suddenly asked, “Master Pagoda, how much is my daily wage as the King of the Guanxuan Universe?”
Little Pagoda was at a loss for words.
Ye Guan chuckled to himself.
Soon, Ah Luo dragged him into the light.
Ye Guan had to close his eyes as the light had gotten too dazzling for him to stare at it. When Ye Guan finally grew accustomed to the light, he found himself in a vast, empty expanse.
A myriad of cultivators stood in front of him, and they were all staring at him.
There was a fierce battle in the distance. It seemed that the Xuzhen Battlefield was a battlefield around the clock as Divine Spirits incessantly invaded it for the sake of capturing the Xuzhen World.
Ye Guan was silent as he stood rooted beneath the gazes of everyone.
“Master Pagoda,” Ye Guan nervously asked, “Where’s my father?”
