I Have A Sword

Upon seeing the man in the blue robe, Lou Deyue and Qing Zhi felt even more puzzled.

You're inviting this person to hold the fort? Didn't you just say the unknown civilization has someone with a hundred-percent divinity? Could this man be comparable to someone with hundred-percent divinity?

The two ladies exchanged glances, clearly bewildered.

Qin Guan bowed slightly and said, "Uncle Yang."

The man in the blue robe shook his head with a smile. "You little brat, after all these years, you still don't want to change the way you address me."

Qin Guan grinned. "It feels more endearing this way."

The man in the blue robe chuckled. "As you wish."

Then, he glanced around and asked, "Where's my precious grandson?"

"Lady An is currently training him."

He looked at Lou Deyue and Qing Zhi and asked, "Are these my granddaughters-in-law? Oh dear, I must give them a gift for our first meeting…"

With that, he flicked his fingers and two storage rings flew towards them. One ring for each of them!

Their expressions stiffened.

Qin Guan giggled and said, "No, they're just his friends…"

Friends!

The man in the blue robe blinked. "Well… His friends deserve to get gifts too."

It wouldn't be too polite to take back what was already given.

The two women, understanding the situation, were about to return the storage rings. However, Lou Deyue suddenly froze in shock when she realized that there were two Pure Grade Ancestral Veins inside it. There was also another super divine artifact in it.

How generous!

As a descendant of the Shen Zhi Civilization, Lou Deyue was by no means poor, but the contents of the storage ring still astonished her. These were not just ordinary Ancestral Veins, they were Pure Grade ones! The divine artifact was also of supreme quality, something that even in the Shen Zhi Civilization would be considered top-tier.

Qing Zhi was equally stunned. Is Young Lord Ye's family really that wealthy?

For a moment, they were both at a loss, unsure whether to accept these rings or not.

Qin Guan chuckled, "Accept it."

Both of them hesitated and exchanged glances with each other. Lou Deyue said with a smile, "Since it's a gift from Senior, it would be impolite not to accept it."

Even though Qing Zhi was still hesitant, she chose to accept it in the end as well.

Sword Master Qingshan asked Qin Guan, "Lass, what did you call me here for?"

Qin Guan replied in a serious tone, "I want to investigate a mysterious and unknown civilization. Its power is extraordinary, and I fear there might be unexpected dangers, so I invited you here to oversee things."

Sword Master Qingshan grinned. "I see. Go ahead and start then."

Qin Guan nodded. She looked at the Universe Receiver in the distance and said, "Little Ai."

Little Ai appeared behind her, holding a mysterious device. After she pressed a few buttons on the device, very quickly, the Universe Receiver began to tremble slightly. Soon, mysterious energies began to gather.

Lou Deyue and Qing Zhi's expression grew heavy when they sensed these energies converging around them.

At that moment, a beam of light suddenly emanated from the Universe Receiver. It stretched out like a sheet and hung about a hundred feet in front of them. However, the light projection screen was still a blur and nothing could be seen clearly on it.

Qin Guan turned to look at Little Ai, who was still playing around with her device. The Universe Receiver's trembling intensified, and as more mysterious energies appeared in the surrounding space, the light projection screen began to clear up.

Lou Deyue and Qing Zhi stared intently at the light screen. They were very curious about this mysterious civilization.

Gradually, the image on the light projection screen became clearer, and soon, an ancient stone gate appeared. It was ten thousand feet tall, and its towering height made it look very majestic.

As the view moved towards the inside of the stone gate, a voice suddenly echoed from within, "Who dares to spy on my Gui Zhe Civilization…"

As soon as the voice fell, a terrifying pressure instantly enveloped the entire surrounding starry sky and universe. Lou Deyue and Qing Zhi's faces changed drastically and they almost knelt down simultaneously. A sense of despair surged into their minds. They were completely unable to resist this pressure, which made them utterly terrified.

What kind of terrifying existence is this?

Lou Deyue possessed eighty-percent divinity, but yet, she was completely suppressed. Moreover, the person exerting this pressure was from an entirely different era. Can this truly be someone with hundred-percent divinity?

She turned completely numb.

At this moment, Sword Master Qingshan flicked his sleeve and instantly, the mysterious pressure vanished without a trace.

Lou Deyue and Qing Zhi felt a great weight lift off their shoulders and they instantly relaxed. They looked at Sword Master Qingshan in disbelief, their hearts filled with even greater astonishment.

"Huh?" The voice behind the light screen was surprised. "Who might you be?"

Sword Master Qingshan glanced at the stone gate indifferently and said with a smile, "My juniors here are curious about your civilization. We mean no harm."

The other voice was silent for a moment before it said, "I never thought that there would be such a powerful existence in later generations… It's truly unbelievable."

Sword Master Qingshan laughed heartily. "You're not too bad yourself, you aren't too weak either."

The voice asked, "Is there anything you want?"

"How about we have a fight?"

"I am not a match for you."

Sword Master Qingshan pouted, somewhat disappointed, as he had intended to show off a bit. He then turned to Qin Guan and said, "You talk to him."

Qin Guan nodded and looked at the light projection screen, saying, "I wish to learn more about your civilization. If possible, we can have a cultural exchange. What do you think?"

There was a pause from the other side. An exchange of knowledge typically requires both civilizations to be on equal footing, and it was apparent that the voice felt that the Guanxuan Universe was somewhat lagging behind. Nevertheless, the voice soon replied, "Of course."

Even though the Old Era was somewhat inferior, the presence of an unparalleled cultivator in this era demanded respect. Establishing good relations with such a formidable individual could only be beneficial for them.

At that moment, a token slowly flew out of the light projection screen. The voice said, "This is an invitation token. Our Gui Zhe Civilization wishes to invite you to visit us… for a friendly exchange between our civilizations."

Qin Guan accepted it and said, "We will certainly come."

The voice responded, "We await your arrival."

Then, the light projection screen became blurry. At this moment, Sword Master Qingshan suddenly took out a portrait and threw it into the light screen, saying, "This is a portrait of my grandson. If you encounter him in the future, please take care of him. He's a pretty good person…"

Qin Guan was speechless.

On the other side of the light screen, the voice paused for a moment and then replied, "Alright."

Then, the light screen completely vanished.

Sword Master Qingshan chuckled, then turned to Qin Guan. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "Lass, if you wish to explore even more powerful civilizations, I can help you…"

Qin Guan shook her head. "It must be done a step at a time."

After thinking for a bit, Sword Master Qingshan agreed, "Indeed, you are right."

Qin Guan asked, "Would you like to see Little Guan?"

"Of course," Sword Master Qingshan replied.

With a wave of his sleeve, the distant spacetime was suddenly split open. The next moment, a young man was forcibly brought over past the rift.

It was none other than Ye Guan. At that moment, he was bewildered, wondering what was happening, but when he saw the man in the blue robe, he excitedly greeted him, "Grandfather."

Sword Master Qingshan laughed heartily. "We meet again."

Ye Guan ran up to him and asked happily, "Why are you here?"

"Just handling some matters," Sword Master Qingshan said.

Ye Guan was thrilled to see his grandfather, as he had not expected to see him. However, at that moment, An Nanjing appeared beside him. She glanced at Sword Master Qingshan with a displeased look. Snatching someone away without a word was quite rude.

Seeing An Nanjing's expression, Sword Master Qingshan laughed and asked, "Would you like to come with me?"

An Nanjing shook her head, causing him to sigh.

Ye Guan suddenly asked, "Why don't I go with you for a bit, Grandfather?"

To be honest, he was quite eager to follow his grandfather around. After all, his grandfather wasn't strict and seemed to enjoy adventures.

However, Sword Master Qingshan shook his head and said, "Not right now. I'm currently busy with some matters. When I'm done, I'll take you on an adventure."

Ye Guan sighed but relented, "Alright!"

Sword Master Qingshan examined Ye Guan for a few moments before he smiled and said proudly, "Your progress is impressive. You make me proud, my grandson."

He ruffled Ye Guan's hair affectionately. Ye Guan smiled but said nothing.

Meanwhile, Qing Zhi and Lou Deyue watched their interaction with curiosity. That was Young Master Ye's grandfather!

They were both shocked that this unparalleled expert turned out to be Ye Guan's grandfather.

There was a complicated expression on Qing Zhi's face. She now knew why he was not afraid of the Primordial Spirit Clan. Why would he be? This man in the blue robe was far more powerful than someone with ninety-percent divinity! With someone that powerful backing him up, Ye Guan had completely no reason to fear the Primordial Spirit Clan.

When she thought about how the Primordial Spirit Clan had now become sworn enemies with Ye Guan, she could not help but worry. Deep down, she still hoped that both parties would be able to reconcile their differences.

Right at this time, the distant starry sky started to boil. Soon after, a series of powerful auras swept in.

Sword Master Qingshan frowned and looked in that direction. There, spacetime was ripped open and an elderly man slowly emerged from the rift.

Upon seeing this elder, Qing Zhi was stunned. It was Supreme Elder Qing Yer, and behind him were dozens of mysterious top-tier elites dressed in black robes. Primordial Spirit Guards!

After Qing Yer slowly walked out, his gaze fell on Qin Guan and he chuckled, "I'm here to inform the Guanxuan Academy that from now on, the Primordial Spirit Clan will be at endless war with you…"

Before coming, he had received word from the Past Clan's clan leader that they were not allied with Ye Guan. In fact, they were enemies. In other words, Ye Guan did not have anyone with ninety-percent divinity backing him!

Thinking of this, Qing Yer could not help but laugh out loud.

You don't have someone with ninety-percent divinity backing you up, and you still want to act tough? How naive!
