I Have A Sword-Chapter 1227: Live and Die Together

Pan Ling originally intended to remain an observer and wait for Ye Guan's backers to appear before making her decision. She thought that was the safest approach. However, to her surprise, Wuzhou and Shenzhou couldn't wait and immediately declared their allegiances.

Pan Ling realized that if she didn't take a stand now, it would be too late later.

When Pan Ling joined the Genesis Daoist Temple, it signified that all the top factions in the Nine Continents, except for the Bandit Mercenary Group, had sided with the Genesis Daoist Temple.

Now, Ye Guan wasn't just opposing the Genesis Daoist Temple; he was pitting himself against the entire Nine Continents.

Who could challenge both the Nine Continents and the Genesis Daoist Temple at the same time?

The experts of the Helian Clan were filled with despair.

Three major regions and the Shikigami Mercenary Group had joined forces to attack them; the opposition was unimaginably formidable.

There was still the mysterious Genesis Daoist Temple, so how could they possibly fight this battle?

The disparity between the two forces was truly overwhelming.

Helian Yu closed his eyes in resignation, and helplessness engulfed his heart.

However, he had no regrets over his choice.

Life is like a game of chess: once a move is made, there is no turning back.

Helian Yu turned to the pale-faced Helian Clan members around him and said apologetically, "Everyone, I'm sorry."

He only felt regret toward his clan members.

One elder from the Helian Clan shook his head and sighed, "Clan Leader, there's no need for apologies. We all agreed to gamble everything back then. If we win, we share the wealth. If we lose, we live and die together. The Helian Clan has no cowards!"

"No cowards!"

The cry resonated among the Helian Clan members.

Hearing their determined voices, Helian Yu smiled. Looking into the distant void where Ye Guan stood, he said, "Young Master Ye, today the Helian Clan will live and die with you. We agreed to share prosperity and suffering."

Ye Guan turned and stared solemnly at Helian Yu. "The Yang Family will never forget the Helian Clan's support and contribution today."

"Ridiculous!" Elder Gu sneered. "Young Master Ye, haven't you realized the situation? Neither you nor your so-called Yang family have a future anymore."

Ye Guan turned to Elder Gu and replied coldly, "Old fool, how about a duel?"

A Duel! Elder Gu's expression froze.

If it had been earlier, he wouldn't have feared Ye Guan, considering his youth and lower cultivation realm. However, after witnessing Ye Guan's battles with three Divine Attendants, Elder Gu dared not face him.

Even Divine Attendant Yu had his fleshly body destroyed by a single strike of Ye Guan's sword. If Elder Gu fought, wouldn't he be instantly killed?

With everyone's gaze fixed on him, Elder Gu felt awkward. He glared at Ye Guan and said coldly, "So what if you're strong? In this world, having powerful backers is what matters. Don't you get that?"

Ye Guan shook his head. "Nonsense."

The moment he spoke, he disappeared.

A terrifying sword aura enveloped Elder Gu, and he bristled with fear.

Sensing death approaching, Elder Gu panicked and tried to retreat. However, Ye Guan's sword force locked onto him. In the blink of an eye, Ye Guan's sword was upon him.

Elder Gu's pupils shrank to pinpoints. Unable to withstand the attack, he chose to self-destruct his fleshly body.

Boom!

His fleshly body exploded, and his soul fled to a safe distance away.

Ye Guan glanced at Elder Gu's disembodied soul. Terrified and trembling, Elder Gu stammered, "Y-y-you..."

Ye Guan suddenly vanished again.

Elder Gu's face paled, but he soon realized that Ye Guan's target wasn't him but another, the injured Divine Attendant Yu.

Divine Attendant Yu's fleshly body was already severely damaged, and he was much weaker. Ye Guan aimed to destroy it completely, making it easy to kill his soul.

After all, the Qingxuan Sword could suppress souls.

Realizing Ye Guan was targeting him, Divine Attendant Yu squinted. Although his fleshly body had been severely injured by Ye Guan's strike previously, he decisively pressed a finger to his forehead.

Boom!

A surge of terrifying energy erupted from within, and an enormous illusory saber shot out from him, flying straight toward Ye Guan.

The massive saber light tore through Ye Guan's sword light, but when it collided with the Qingxuan Sword—

Boom!

The saber light shattered instantly as if it were an egg smashing into a rock.

Divine Attendant Yu retreated thousands of meters, but by now, his fleshly body was completely destroyed. He glared at Ye Guan's Qingxuan Sword, his expression grim. Could this sword truly be a divine artifact from a Tier Nine Civilization?

While he hesitated, Ye Guan disappeared again.

Divine Attendant Yu narrowed his eyes and was about to strike again when Zuo Lou suddenly appeared in front of him. Zuo Lou extended his right hand and turned his palm down. With a sudden upward flick, the spacetime around Ye Guan instantly turned strange. In the blink of an eye, Ye Guan found himself in a pitch-black spacetime.

This spacetime, the Annihilation Spacetime, was utterly dark. It was devoid of sight or sound and enveloped in eternal silence.

It was a special spacetime realm created by Zuo Lou, imbued with a terrifying power known as the Annihilation Force. Anyone pulled into this space would be relentlessly eroded by it; their lifespan, fleshly body, and even soul would succumb to annihilation.

Zuo Lou had acted abruptly, hoping to curry favor with the Genesis Daoist Temple.

Since the Zuo Clan had decided to intervene, Zuo Lou naturally seized any opportunity to make a favorable impression.

As Zuo Lou observed Ye Guan trapped within the Annihilation Spacetime, he prepared to strike again. However, a brilliant sword light suddenly erupted from within, tearing spacetime apart in an instant. Moments later, Ye Guan emerged unharmed.

Zuo Lou was utterly shocked, staring at Ye Guan in disbelief. "You..."

He realized something and turned to the Qingxuan Sword in Ye Guan's hand.

"It's that sword!" he exclaimed.

At this moment, all eyes focused on the Qingxuan Sword in Ye Guan's hand.

From the moment Ye Guan had drawn his sword, its overwhelming power had been nothing short of extraordinary.

Without wasting any words, Ye Guan transformed into a streak of sword light and charged toward Zuo Lou.

Time was running out.

Once time was up, his cultivation would be sealed, and he would truly be powerless. He had to make use of this opportunity to eliminate the strongest enemies, alleviating some of the burden on his elder sister.

I can't let her bear everything! What if she ends up running away because she can't take it anymore?

Zuo Lou dared not take any chances. With a wave of his palm, a massive black cauldron shot into the sky. The cauldron grew rapidly, reaching a thousand meters in size. At its rim stood two colossal beasts, one black and one white, both ferocious and radiating terrifying auras.

The Shenzhou Cauldron!

This was the Zuo Clan's greatest treasure, an artifact on par with the legendary treasures of the Nine Continent Cauldron.

Facing Ye Guan, Zuo Lou no longer dared to hold back and immediately deployed his clan's ultimate weapon.

As the cauldron appeared, the two enormous demonic beasts roared at Ye Guan, unleashing waves of oppressive demonic energy. Simultaneously, the cauldron emitted strange blue light beams that surged toward Ye Guan.

Ye Guan responded with two swift sword strikes.

Boom!

With just two slashes, the colossal demonic beasts and the Shenzhou Cauldron were shattered into pieces, exploding in a powerful shockwave that forced Zuo Lou back a thousand meters.

As Zuo Lou steadied himself, disbelief filled his face. "This..."

He couldn't comprehend how his clan's ultimate treasure was destroyed effortlessly.

Ye Guan charged toward him again, sword in hand.

Zuo Lou was filled with dread. His eyes betrayed his fear, and instead of facing Ye Guan head-on, he retreated nearly ten thousand meters.

Swish!

Ye Guan's sword strike missed, slicing through empty air.

Ye Guan frowned, lifting his gaze toward the distant Zuo Lou. If an opponent of this level refused to engage him directly, there was little he could do.

He withdrew his gaze, turned, and unleashed a sword strike toward the nearby Elder Gu. Elder Gu's expression changed dramatically, and he fled in panic. However, Ye Guan's sword aura abruptly shifted course, targeting Divine Attendant Yu in the distance.

This sudden change stunned everyone. No one had anticipated that Ye Guan's true target was Divine Attendant Yu. Even Divine Attendant Yu was caught off guard, and by the time he realized what was happening, Ye Guan was already upon him. With no room to retreat, he extended a finger, unleashing a terrifying surge of soul energy from its tip.

But as his soul energy met the Qingxuan Sword, his expression changed dramatically. He watched in disbelief as the soul energy evaporated like snow melting in boiling oil, vanishing without a trace.

What is going on? Divine Attendant Yu's eyes widened in shock, disbelief etched across his face. In the next instant, Ye Guan's Qingxuan Sword pierced through his forehead.

Boom!

The strike pinned Divine Attendant Yu to the spot!

Everyone was stunned.

A Supreme Ancestor Realm cultivator was defeated just like that?

Ye Guan moved to finish off Divine Attendant Yu, but Pan Ling standing in the distance raised her palm. A spinning disk appeared and transformed into a beam of ghostly light that shot toward Ye An and Zang Gang.
