I Have A Sword

Chapter 753: The Robbery

A handshake?

The concept of handshakes didn't exist in the vast expanse, except for the Milky Way.

Sensing something amiss, Shen Qi smiled faintly and was about to retract her hand, but Erya grabbed it and greeted, "Hello."

Little White didn't want to be left out, so she also shook Shen Qi's hand.

Shen Qi blinked and stayed silent. She felt uneasy for some reason.

"Miss, have you heard of the Milky Way?" Ye Guan asked."

Taken aback, Shen Qi asked back, "You know about the Milky Way?"

Ye Guan nodded.

Shen Qi was thrilled. "Are you a 'traveler' as well?"

Ye Guan shook his head with a smile. "No, but I visited the Milky Way."

Shen Qi whispered, "I see... how is the Milky Way doing during your visit?"

Ye Guan recounted the Milky Way's state of affairs.

Once Ye Guan was done with his recount, Shen Qi sighed softly and said, "It's been such a long time."

"Are you a 'traveler'?"

Shen Qi nodded. "Yes."

"So you died?" Ye Guan asked, raising an eyebrow."

Shen Qi burst out into laughter at Ye Guan's question. "Young Master Ye, so you understand the meaning of the word 'travel' in my eyes."

Ye Guan chuckled and asked, "Do you know how you ended up here?"

"I don't know," Shen Qi said, shaking her head. "I only remember getting struck by lightning and then finding myself here."

Ye Guan was intrigued.

"At first, I was really happy to find myself here, but I later realized that this place is far more brutal than my hometown. Here, people kill each other over the smallest disagreement," Shen Qi said.

"Do you wish to go home?"

Shen Qi nodded, and her voice was barely above a whisper as she said, "I wish to see it again."

Just then, footsteps echoed outside the hall.

Qing Dai's expression changed abruptly.

A middle-aged man slowly entered the room. The middle-aged man was wearing an elegant robe with his long hair cascading over his shoulders. His hands were clasped behind his back, and he was exuding a commanding aura. He was none other than City Governor Zhao.

Qing Dai sounded solemn as she said, "City Governor Zhao."

Ye Guan glanced at the middle-aged man but said nothing.

Meanwhile, Erya was still licking her hawthorn candy in silence.

City Governor Zhao's gaze shifted to Qing Dai and then settled on Ye Guan. "You must be Ye Guan?"

"You know me?"

"Well, I heard that the outside world now belongs to the Guanxuan Civilization. Is that true?"

Ye Guan nodded. "More or less."

City Governor Zhao chuckled and asked, "What brings you here?"

Glancing at Shen Qi beside him, Ye Guan said, "I heard from Lady Qing Dai that Shen Qi can be freed in exchange for the First God’s journal."

City Governor Zhao stared deeply at Ye Guan and said, "That's correct."

Ye Guan opened his palm, revealing the journal. "I happen to have it."

However, City Governor Zhao burst out into laughter and replied, "That was back then, but not now."

"Why not?"

City Governor Zhao smirked. "Because I don't like you. Is that enough?"

Ye Guan turned to Erya and blandly said, "Erya, beat him up."

Erya charged forward and threw a punch.

City Governor Zhao decisively counterattacked with a punch of his own.

Boom!

A terrifying shockwave erupted at the moment of contact, instantly reducing the entire hall to rubble.

City Governor Zhao was forced to retreat about a thousand meters away, while Erya didn't budge even an inch.

City Governor Zhao's face turned serious, and he stared at Erya with shock in his eyes. The mere little girl ended up possessing a strength that was far more horrifying than he could have ever imagined.

Ye Guan turned to Shen Qi beside him and said, "You're free now."

Shen Qi blinked. "Thank you."

"Free?" City Governor Zhao's laughter echoed from afar. "You truly don't regard me or the Forest Civilization highly."

Ye Guan glanced indifferently at City Governor Zhao. "Do I need to?"

City Governor Zhao's smile turned cold, but before he could say anything, Erya threw another punch at him.

The entire Daogu City trembled violently beneath Erya's punch.

Facing Erya's terrifying punch, City Governor Zhao didn't dare to be careless. He stepped forward and flicked his hand, sending a column of flame toward Erya.

Erya's fist made contact with the column of flame and boom!

The column of flame was shattered by Erya's punch, and City Governor Zhao was blasted away like a kite that had lost its strings.

Qing Dai couldn't help but stare at Erya in shock.

City Governor Zhao had accumulated ninety percent divinity, but he was still no match for the little girl.

Erya was indeed a terrifying individual.

Unbeknownst to everyone, Erya signaled at Little White with her eyes upon forcing City Governor Zhao to retreat.

Little White immediately understood what Erya was trying to say and took to the sky.

She waved her tiny paws, and the earth quivered violently.

Soon, several Ancestral Veins burst out of the ground, and Little White collected them swiftly.

To make matters worse, quite a few divine items in the city flew out on their own, rushing toward Little White...

A robbery?! Qing Dai and Qing Zhi were dumbfounded.

Then, they stared at Ye Guan at the same time.

"I had no intentions of robbing anyone..." Ye Guan explained. Indeed, Ye Guan hadn't anticipated that Erya and Little White would raid an entire city, robbing it bare. This is Little White and Erya's decision, and I have nothing to do with this, but damn... They just went straight to looting? They're like bandits, but I like it! Hahaha!

Ye Guan couldn't help but laugh.

City Governor Zhao's face distorted at the sight.

"Stop her!" City Governor Zhao roared.

In response to his command, many powerful auras rose from the city and charged at Little White.

Ye Guan took to the sky and arrived next to Little White.

The Qingxuan Sword appeared in his hand, and he swung it fiercely, instantly forcing back those daring enough to charge at Little White.

Even without the Qingxuan Sword, Ye Guan was invincible below ninety percent divinity, but with the Qingxuan Sword, even someone with ninety percent divinity was no different from an ant to him.

In the face of Ye Guan's terrifying power, the elites in the city dared not approach any closer. They could only watch helplessly as Little White went on a rampage throughout the city, looting every single divine item and Ancestral Vein in her way.

Their hearts were bleeding at the sight, but they couldn't do anything at all.

City Governor Zhao's expression soured. In no time, the little troublemaker had robbed the entire Daogu City blind.

Erya glanced casually at City Governor Zhao and remarked, "I like people like you—people who only speak the language of violence.”

Erya then nonchalantly pulled out another hawthorn candy and began licking it right in front of City Governor Zhao.

"You're a demonic beast," said City Governor Zhao.

Erya nonchalantly muttered, "Oh..."

City Governor Zhao. “…”

Erya's indifference was truly infuriating.

Just then, Little White finally stopped but thousands of divine items were orbiting her.

Little White seemed perplexed, as these items weren't appealing to her.

Ye Guan noticed that and chimed in, "Not satisfied with some of them?"

Little White nodded.

Ye Guan quickly said, "We can't let them go to waste. I'll take care of it."

Ye Guan waved his hand, collecting every single one of them. Little White was not interested in them, but they were still valuable divine items, so Ye Guan decided to collect them for himself.

Qing Zhi shook her head with a knowing smile. She finally understood why Ye Guan wasn't thrifty; it turned out that he belonged to the wealthiest family in the vast expanse.

Qin Guan herself was the richest lady in existence, and Little White was a part of Ye Guan’s family.

Meanwhile, City Governor Zhao stomped forward, summoning a colossal divine statue behind him.

When the divine statue emerged, a powerful aura rolled out, rendering the world translucent.

Ye Guan's expression turned grave at the sight.

It was the most formidable divine statue that he had ever encountered so far.

However, Erya remained unfazed and was still licking her hawthorn candy.

Just then, City Governor Zhao pointed at Erya, and the divine statue mirrored his action.

Boom!

A deafening explosion echoed as a massive void appeared in the sky.

Erya charged at the divine statue.

Kaboom!

Erya shattered the divine statue's finger, and the divine statue staggered upon impact, sending shockwaves throughout the world.

City Governor Zhao was blasted away as well, and he stared with a stupefied face at Erya as soon as he stabilized himself in midair.

He didn't expect that she was strong enough to contend against his divine statue.

Meanwhile, Ye Guan breathed a sigh of relief.

Erya had proven to everyone that she was stronger than City Governor Zhao's divine statue.

Of course, Ye Guan knew that it was the case, as Erya could even contend against the Qingxuan Sword.

All of a sudden, Erya raised her hand and punched out.

A terrifying force surged toward City Governor Zhao, who dared not be careless.

He put his hands together and silently recited an ancient incantation.

The next moment, an illusory golden shield appeared in front of him.

Bang!

With a deafening explosion, City Governor Zhao was blasted away.

As soon as he stopped, the divine statue in front of him shattered into nothingness.

City Governor Zhao's expression instantly became fierce.

However, Little White sensed something just then. She turned and excitedly waved her tiny paws before tapping Ye Guan on the shoulder.

Ye Guan hurriedly asked, "You found a treasure?"

Little White nodded eagerly.

"Let's go!" Ye Guan immediately exclaimed, "Time to work!"

Qing Zhi. "..."
