I Have A Sword

Chapter 761: I'm Not Leaving

The shadowy figure was overjoyed.

However, Shen Qi's right hand suddenly relaxed, and she smiled. “I have to admit that I was feeling a bit conflicted just now.”

Little Ai glanced at Shen Qi and pointed out. “So you’ve made your decision.”

Shen Qi nodded slightly. “I still wish to be friends with Young Master Ye.”

“Why?” The shadowy figure behind Shen Qi was full of disbelief. “Mistress, how could you make such a choice? You...”

Shen Qi laughed. “It's probably because Young Master Ye is a good person, but it could also be because we're both from the Milky Way. Haha...”

The shadowy figure wanted to say something, but Shen Qi cast a meaningful look at him.

The shadowy figure dared not speak any further.

Shen Qi looked at Ye Guan, who was still fighting in the distance, and chuckled. “Miss, do you think I will regret my choice?”

Little Ai calmly asked, “Can you tell me why you made this choice?”

Shen Qi smiled, “Two reasons. First of all, Young Master Ye is indeed a good person. Secondly and finally, I think his aunt is extremely powerful.”

Little Ai nodded slightly. “But you're anxious at the fact that you don't know her aunt's exact strength. Am I right?"

“Yes.” Shen Qi replied, nodding.

“I don't know it, too.”

Shen Qi frowned.

“However, I can tell you one thing that I'm very certain about. If his aunt wants to do so, she can destroy the Forest Civilization with just one sword move.”

Shen Qi was stunned.

The shadowy figure behind Shen Qi roared, “That's nonsense! You boastful—”

Bang!

Little Ai had taken out a divine artifact and aimed it at the shadowy figure before squeezing the trigger.

The divine artifact spat fire, interrupting the shadowy figure's sentence and blasting him thousands of meters away!

“You...” The shadowy figure was shocked. “What is that thing?!”

Little Ai cast an indifferent gaze at the shadowy figure. “I've never chimed in whenever my master is talking to someone.”

The shadowy figure was speechless.

Shen Qi looked at the shadowy figure and smiled. “I can’t control him anymore.”

The shadowy figure's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly knelt down, trembling. “Mistress, I...”

“From now on, you are not allowed to speak unless I give you the permission to do so. Otherwise, I will break your mouth," said Shen Qi.

The shadowy figure nodded in a hurry.

Shen Qi looked at Little Ai and smiled. “He's been with me for such a long time that it would be too ruthless of me to kill him for such a minor transgression."

Little Ai shook her head. “That's none of my business.”

Shen Qi glanced at Ye Guan in the distance and then asked, “You said his aunt could destroy the Forest Civilization with just one sword move. How can you say that? Is it because you truly understand the Forest Civilization's true strength?”

"I can see that you're very curious about the true power of his aunt, but as I said earlier, I really don't know it, either," Little Ai replied calmly, “In fact, even my master has no idea. We once tried to study her to use her as our standard for measuring strength, but we quickly discovered that it was simply impossible to measure her strength. As an example, just as we were convinced that she was at level ten, she'd suddenly be level one hundred the next day. When we were convinced that she was level one thousand, she'd suddenly be at level ten thousand."

Little Ai shook her head slightly and said, “Perhaps only she herself knows just how strong she is. No, I think that even she has no idea of her true strength...”

Shen Qi was bewildered. “No matter how strong she is, her strength can definitely be measured. Her cultivation—”

Little Ai shook her head. “She doesn’t cultivate a cultivation base.”

Shen Qi was stupefied.

The shadowy figure beside her glanced coldly at Little Ai. Who didn't know how to brag?

Boom!

A defeaning explosion echoed from afar. Everyone turned and saw Ye Guan flying thousands of meters away.

When Ye Guan finally stabilized himself in midair, a trickle of blood dripped down his mouth.

Ye Guan looked up at the middle-aged man in the distance.

A giant divine statue, standing like a demon god between heaven and earth, was behind the middle-aged man.

The surrounding spacetime couldn’t withstand the colossal divine statue's power and had become extremely illusory.

The colossal divine statue had bestowed so much power on the middle-aged man that Ye Guan was finally struggling against him.

However, the middle-aged man's face was ugly as he stared at Ye Guan. He hadn’t expected that the young man would last so long against him.

After all, his cultivation base was far higher than the young man!

To make matters worse, he found that he could only suppress Ye Guan. For some reason, he couldn't land a killing blow on the latter.

The existence of such a monster in this place was truly unprecedented.

The middle-aged man’s eyes revealed killing intent. Although Ye Guan was insignificant compared to the entire Forest Civilization, he could not be underestimated, as his potential was so high that he'd become a future threat to the Forest Civilization if he were allowed to live.

The aura of the colossal divine statue behind the middle-aged man suddenly became violent, reflecting the latter's killing intent.

Ye Guan sensed the killing intent and laughed. “Come!”

With that, he turned into a crimson sword light that disappeared into thin air.

Slash!

A crimson sword light streaked across the battlefield, threatening to tear everything apart.

The middle-aged man revealed a fierce expression in the face of the oncoming attack. He stepped forward and threw a punch at Ye Guan.

The crimson sword light stopped dead in its tracks, but the spacetime around the middle-aged man cracked open, revealing hundreds of crimson swords.

The middle-aged man roared and stomped hard. A terrifying spear intent surged from him, blocking all the swords.

Swoosh!

However, an exceptionally radiant sword light descended toward the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man roared once again, and the divine statue punched the sword light.

BOOM!

Ye Guan was blasted thousands of meters away, flying like a kite that had lost its strings.

Just as Ye Guan came to a halt, the divine statue behind the middle-aged man leaned forward and punched at Ye Guan.

The punch was so strong that the nearby spacetime seemed to boil beneath it.

The middle-aged man was genuinely enraged.

He felt humiliated by the fact that he still couldn't kill Ye Guan despite the latter's low cultivation base.

He couldn't stand it!

Ye Guan closed his eyes slowly in the face of the oncoming fist.

The power of his bloodline surged madly inside him, and waves of sword intent poured out of him.

Rumble!

Ye Guan opened his eyes and thrust his sword out—Spacetime Sword Domain!

A myriad of swords made out of sword intent manifested and merged with the special spacetime energy inside the domain, culminating in an extremely powerful explosion.

BOOM!

The spacetime around Ye Guan burst open, and a terrifying wave of energy spread outward.

The colossal divine statue was forced to retreat!

Shen Qi's eyes were full of astonishment as she stared at the retreating Ye Guan. “So I still ended up underestimating him.”

Ye Guan's level of strength was truly shocking. Shen Qi hadn't expected Ye Guan to last so long against a supreme elite of the Forest Civilization.

What was Ye Guan's cultivation base again? His cultivation base was extremely low when compared to the middle-aged man, but their combat strength seemed equal.

Ye Guan's too strong! Once becomes a Divine Dao Realm expert... Shen Qi’s expression grew serious at the thought.

Boom!

The spacetime in the distance burst open again.

The next moment, Ye Guan and the middle-aged man were blasted away by each other's attacks.

Before the middle-aged man could even stabilize himself, a myriad of swords appeared around him like ghosts, hounding him to no end.

The middle-aged man swung his spear frantically, sending out beams of spear light toward the swords.

“That guy is getting desperate,” Shen Qi remarked, shaking her head. She then looked at Ye Guan again and realized that Ye Guan was becoming steadier and steadier as the battle went on.

He was still being suppressed, but he seemed to be in control of the battlefield.

Shen Qi noticed that and muttered, “He seems to possess the Martial God Consciousness...”

Wait, Martial God? Shen Qi looked at Little Ai beside her.

Little Ai smiled and said, “Yes, our young master not only cultivates the Dao but practices martial arts as well.”

“No wonder!” Shen Qi exclaimed, “No wonder he can fight so well. So he cultivates the Dao of the Sword and martial arts at the same time...”

“Actually, our young master could have killed the opponent long ago if he truly wanted to do so,” Little Ai said.

“Using that sword?” Shen Qi asked with a solemn look.

Little Ai nodded. Ye Guan could easily kill the middle-aged man using the Qingxuan Sword, but it seemed that he had no intentions of using the Qingxuan Sword in this battle.

Shen Qi suddenly became curious. “Miss Ai, as far as I know, you're trying to look for other civilizations out there. Are you not afraid of inviting trouble?”

Little Ai glanced at Shen Qi and smiled before asking, “Are you trying to get information from me?”

“I’m just curious.”

Little Ai was about to reply, but the spacetime above them suddenly started trembling.

Shen Qi frowned deeply at the sight.

The shadowy figure saw that and said, “Mistress, they're coming.”

The Forest Civilization was coming!

Shen Qi looked up at the teleportation array with her eyes full of doubt.

Why does the Forest Civilization even want to come back? Shen Qi couldn't figure it out at all!

Little Ai glanced at the teleportation array and stared at Ye Guan in the distance. “Young Master, we have to go.”

Ye Guan suddenly came to a halt. He looked up at the teleportation array and realized that the people of the Forest Civilization would soon be here.

With that in mind, Ye Guan nodded slightly and said, “Let’s go!"

The middle-aged man sneered upon hearing Ye Guan's remark. “Did I tell you that you can leave?”

He charged at Ye Guan and swung his fist.

The sword in Ye Guan's hand disappeared and was replaced by the Qingxuan Sword.

He raised it and swung it toward the oncoming fist.

Slash!

The middle-aged man was blasted away, and he was stunned to realize that his right hand was missing.

"We have to leave now," Little Ai said, appearing next to Ye Guan. “We only have about fifteen minutes before the explosion.”

Ye Guan nodded and stared at Shen Qi in the distance. “Miss Shen Qi, follow us!”

With that, Ye Guan grabbed Little Ai and hopped onto his sword, disappearing into the distance.

Shen Qi hesitated briefly before chasing after them.

The shadowy figure, however, sneered and didn't bother following them. “I'm not leaving...”
