I Have A Sword

Chapter 502: Erya, Little White!

Chapter 502: Erya, Little White!

A few? Sovereign Nan Zhu was in disbelief. When he walked out, he was greeted by hundreds of elite Time Reversers. Their leaders were particularly strong.

A few?! Sovereign Nan Zhu was utterly dumbfounded.

Ye Guan sounded serious as he asked, "How many are outside?"

Sovereign Nan Zhu gazed deploy at Ye Guan and replied, "A few hundred!"

Ye Guan's lips twitched, but he remained silent.

Sovereign Nan Zhu looked at Ye Guan with a puzzled expression and asked, "Why are so many Time Reversers chasing after you?”

Left with no choice, Ye Guan explained the entire situation to Sovereign Nan Zhu.

He wanted to get Sovereign Nan Zhu on his side. As a top-tier supreme elite, Sovereign Nan Zhu's strength was probably on par with that woman wielding a colossal sword.

It would be great if Ye Guan ended up winning him over.

Thus, Ye Guan didn't hold back. He explained the intricacies of the situation.

Trying to deceive a top-tier supreme elite was akin to insulting their intelligence. Sovereign Nan Zhu would end up looking at him in disdain, so Ye Guan chose to tell the truth and allow Sovereign Nan Zhu to make the choice himself.

Honesty was the best policy!

Sovereign Nan Zhu's expression turned extremely grim at Ye Guan's explanation.

The Past Clan!

Sovereign Nan Zhu was familiar with the Past Clan, as they were the reigning masters of the Time River. The Clan Leader of the Past Clan was especially powerful, as she had transcended the Great Dao and could kill with just a word.

The Past Clan's goal was to overthrow the True God's order, which was great for Sovereign Nan Zhu, as his lifespan was running out. However, it meant becoming Ye Guan's enemy. Ye Guan had the support of those two exceptional swordsmen as well as the support of the True God and the Great Daoist Brush Master.

In other words, both sides could be considered equally strong.

Caught in a dilemma, Sovereign Nan Zhu stood in place and stayed silent. Should I choose a side?

Choosing the wrong side meant a complete disaster, but if he stayed neutral, he wouldn't be able to earn any profits. Sovereign Nan Zhu paced back and forth with his brows knitted in deep thought.

"Senior!" Ye Guan broke the silence and said, "We're on the same side!"

Sovereign Nan Zhu turned to Ye Guan.

Ye Guan nodded and continued, "Please lend us your support in establishing a brand-new order. We'll usher in a new era of peace that will last for a long time.”

Locking eyes with Ye Guan, Sovereign Nan Zhu murmured, "If a brand-new order is established..."

"You're not going to die," Ye Guan said.

Sovereign Nan Zhu's eyes narrowed. "Are you sure?"

Ye Guan affirmed, "Absolutely."

Sovereign Nan Zhu examined Ye Guan from top to bottom and asked, "What do you need me to do?"

Ye Guan was relieved.

The pressure on them would ease significantly with Sovereign Nan Zhu on their side.

After a moment of contemplation, Ye Guan said, "Let's not confront them head-on."

Sovereign Nan Zhu nodded. Had Ye Guan proposed a head-on clash with those Time Reversers, Sovereign Nan Zhu would have hesitated or outright chosen to remain neutral. The current situation had put them at a significant disadvantage, and at this point, a head-on confrontation would only lead to unnecessary sacrifices.

Ye Guan sounded concerned as he asked, "Is there a way for us to leave this place?"

"Yes," Sovereign Nan Zhu said, nodding. "Let's go."

Sovereign Nan Zhu then turned to the pillars and shouted, "Guards!"

A burst of energy rippled through the twelve stone pillars, and twelve mysterious figures clad in dark armor awakened. Their formidable auras pervaded the hall as they opened their eyes.

Ye Guan's expression turned serious. The twelve mysterious figures radiated powerful auras, and they seemed as strong as Diyi Feng and Diyi Lou.

Unfortunately, their auras were far weaker than the aura of the woman wielding a colossal sword and the aura of the late Ancient Mirror Sovereign.

Sovereign Nan Zhu approached the throne calmly and placed his right hand on the armrest. The throne responded with a deafening explosion, and a brilliant blue light came to life, revealing a teleportation array.

Sovereign Nan Zhu turned to Ye Guan and explained, "This is a teleportation array leading to the Nanming Realm, which is billions of years away. We can buy some time using this array."

Ye Guan produced a tiny pagoda and said, "Senior, enter this pagoda.”

Sovereign Nan Zhu glanced at the small pagoda and said nothing before instructing the twelve mysterious figures to hop into the pagoda. Sovereign Nan Zhu himself entered the pagoda moments later, and his expression changed upon arriving in the world inside the tiny pagoda.

Ye Guan put away the tiny pagoda and entered the teleportation array with Ye Qingqing. As soon as they stepped into the teleportation array, the grand gates of the hall disintegrated with a loud noise.

The woman wielding a massive sword walked into the hall.

Ye Guan locked eyes with the woman wielding a colossal sword, but the latter didn't move and merely stared at Ye Guan until he vanished into the teleportation array with Ye Qingqing.

The Time Reversers behind her revealed dark expressions.

Ye Guan and Ye Qingqing had eluded them once again.

However, the woman wielding a colossal sword remained calm. She stared at the teleportation array, seeming in deep contemplation.

...

True Universe...

The True Universe's major arrays were activated, and the supreme elites of the True Universe had gathered in the True God Realm.

Thousands of supreme elites exuding powerful auras surpassing those of Great Destiny Sovereigns hovered above the True Universe. A middle-aged man in a magnificent robe stood at the helm.

The middle-aged man's gaze was cold and indifferent, and his long hair flowed freely behind him. The middle-aged man was none other than the second most powerful individual of the Diyi Clan—Diyi Yong.

Thousands of corpses floated freely in the starry sky. They were the corpses of the True Universe's supreme elites and the corpses of the Time Reversers. Of course, the majority of the corpses were from the True Universe.

The Time Reversers dared not to set foot in the True Universe because of the True God's deterrence. However, the True God was currently suppressing the Universe Tribulation in her true form, so they no longer had anything to fear.

Cirou and Ba Wan stood before Diyi Yong with ugly expressions. The True Universe has launched more than a hundred attacks so far with its grand arrays, but they hadn't been able to deal with the Time Reversers.

To make matters worse, the Time Reversers had only surrounded them without even attacking them. Clearly, their goal was to stop the True Universe from rescuing Ye Guan.

Cirou had long seen through their goal, which was why she had been trying to disperse the Time Reversers. Unfortunately, her efforts so far were to no avail.

Compared to the supreme elites of the True Universe, there weren't that many Time Reversers, but each of them had extraordinary strength.

Cishu's eyes were filled with worry. "Little Rou, is he going to be okay?"

Cirou was, but her trembling eyes betrayed her.

After a while, Cirou suddenly roared, "Attack!"

Attack!

The supreme elites of the True Universe charged at the group of Time Reversers.

...

The Xuzhen Battlefield, Guanxuan Universe...

The supreme elites of the Guanxuan Universe had gathered in the Xuzhen Battlefield. An Nanjing stood at the helm as they faced a group of Time Reversers.

The leader of the Time Reversers was the Clan Leader of the Diyi Clan, Diyi Qing.

Diyi Qing cast a solemn and astonished gaze upon An Nanjing in the distance. At first, he thought the people of the tiny and weak Guanxuan Universe would be weak as well. However, he couldn't have been more mistaken—the Guanxuan Universe was packed with powerful supreme elites.

The surprise had led to them losing quite a few Time Reversers. Three supreme elites of the Guanxuan Universe had managed to escape their encirclement as well, which was the reason Diyi Qing's expression was as dark as the bottom of a kettle.

At the same time, Diyi Qing's eyes flickered in wariness and worry. Those three supreme elites were undeniably powerful.

An Nanjing looked up at the vast expanse of stars in the distance, and her eyes carried a touch of concern as well. Their opponents were a bit too powerful to underestimate.

...

Three figures streaked across the Time River, going against its flow to go somewhere. The three individuals were none other than Slaughter, White Skirt Destiny, and Erya!

An Nanjing had immediately instructed them to break through the encirclement and assist Ye Guan. The three were an unstoppable force, slaughtering every single Time Reverser daring enough to block them.

Rumble!

The spacetime ahead suddenly distorted.

The leader of the three-woman team, Slaughter, glared coldly at the distorted spacetime up ahead and slashed out.

Swoosh!

A radiant sword light made a beeline for the distorted spacetime. In response, a fist imprint flew out of the distorted spacetime, shattering the radiant sword light.

Slaughter immediately frowned.

Two figures emerged from the distorted spacetime rift—a middle-aged man in white and a beautiful woman wearing a long robe. They were none other than Helian Yuan and Helian Chun—ranked second and third on the Time List.

Both Helian Yuan and Helian Chun hadn't come here alone; hundreds of Time Reversers were walking closely behind them.

Helian Yuan glared coldly at Slaughter and muttered, "Wha a powerful swordsman. No wonder the clan leader had to send the two of us here. Any random Tom, Dick, and Harry can't possibly stop you."

Slaughter's gaze remained calm as she said, "Leave."

White Skirt Destiny and Erya didn't hesitate. They transformed into streaks of light that disappeared into the distance.

Helian Yuan's eyes narrowed, and he got ready to intercept the two. However, Slaughter transformed into a streak of sword light that closed in on him. A powerful sword force enveloped Helian Yuan and Helian Chun at the same time.

The Time Reversers dared not to underestimate Slaughter, and they simultaneously unleashed a variety of attacks at Slaughter.

BOOM!

A deafening explosion echoed as a dazzling sword light erupted.

The Time Reversers were forced to retreat.

Slaughter morphed into a streak of sword light, slashing out toward the Time Reversers. In the end, Helian Yuan and Helian Chun had to abandon their plans to chase after White Skirt Destiny and Erya.

Boom, boom, boom!

Consecutive explosions echoed as multiple attacks were exchanged at once. Helian Yuan and Helian Chun revealed solemn expressions. Slaughter was stronger than they had imagined, and they were forced to abandon the idea of chasing after White Skirt Destiny and Erya.

...

White Skirt Destiny led Erya and Little White on a journey against the flow of time.

Despite knowing that Ye Qingqing was protecting Ye Guan, the Time Reversers were unlike any enemies Ye Guan had ever encountered. White Skirt Destiny was worried if Ye Qingqing could truly protect Ye Guan.

White Skirt Destiny's worried thoughts forced her to unconsciously pick up the pace.

Rumble!

A spacetime rift was torn apart in the distance, and a golden fist imprint flew toward them.

White Skirt Destiny's eyes narrowed. She waved her hand, unleashing a decisive sword strike.

Boom!

A radiant sword light erupted before her, and the surrounding spacetime distorted beneath the impact of the collision.

White Skirt Destiny looked up and saw a robed man standing in the distance. The robed man's right hand was behind him, and he was exuding a dangerous martial aura.

The robed man was Gu Wu, an ancestor of the Ancient Time Clan. The supreme elites of the Ancient Time Clan stood behind Gu Wu. The lineup was quite astonishing, as they were all top-tier supreme elites!

Gu Wu stared into White Skirt Destiny's eyes, and his gaze was ablaze with the intense desire for battle.

White Skirt Destiny turned to Erya and said, "Erya, take Little White with you and go!"

Erya swept her gaze across the enemies before nodding. "All right!"

She then transformed into a streak of light that disappeared into the distance with Little White.

Even though Erya and Little White would soon help Ye Guan, White Skirt Destiny was still worried. Have they ever been reliable?

Gu Wu couldn't stop Erya and Little White, as White Skirt Destiny's sword aura was boring down on them. Moments later, White Skirt Destiny took a stance with her sword and charged at Gu Wu.

...

Erya flew against the flow of time alongside Little White. Fortunately, they had yet to encounter any enemies.

Little White waved her tiny paws just then, and Erya came to a halt in response.

Little White pointed at somewhere with her tiny paw and waved the other paw in excitement.

Erya blinked and asked solemnly, "There's a treasure there?"

Little White nodded eagerly.

"But we need to rescue our grandson!" Erya pointed out.

Little White's eyes widened, and she remained silent.

"Our grandson should be able to hold on for just a bit longer... right?" Erya muttered.

Little White blinked her big eyes in agreement.

Erya hesitated briefly before saying, "Well, our grandson is powerful, so he should be able to wait just a bit longer. Anyway, let's go. Let's go and find that treasure!"

With that, Erya led Little White in a different direction for a treasure hunt.
