I Have a Sword

A deathly silence blanketed the world.

The denizens of Tianxing stood frozen with disbelief in their eyes and faces as they stared at Fu Wu's distant figure.

Hou Qing was defeated just like that? Even though she was one of the Tianxing Rulers?

Although she wasn't in her true body, the fact that she was defeated so effortlessly was surreal. On the other side, Ye Guan also found himself conflicted as he watched, but his expression leaned more toward concern than surprise.

He wasn't sure whether Fu Wu could take on Clan Leader Jing, but one thing was clear—she could undoubtedly beat the living daylights out of Qiu Baiyi.

Qiu Baiyi had no idea what to say.

Meanwhile, Yi Nian was overwhelmed with complex emotions.

Fu Wu, one of the Chief Enforcement Officers of the Tianxing Civilization. Back then, she was their most powerful warrior—a sword to protect their people. However, that very sword had turned its blade against the Tianxing Civilization.

What a tragic turn of fate!

Yi Nian couldn't help but feel confused as well.

Since she was so strong, what was wrong with marrying a man from another civilization? Heck, why stop at one? What difference would ten make?

Yi Nian's eyes darted toward Ye Guan.

Just then, Fu Wu began walking toward the Reincarnation Ancestral Stone. As she approached, the stone trembled and a faint glow shot up into the sky, illuminating the heavens.

The glow spread and an invisible pressure swept across the world.

From within the light, a middle-aged man emerged. He was wearing a black robe adorned with intricate symbols, and his face was sharp as if it were chiseled from stone. His entire being exuded an air of authority.

"Tianxing Ruler Su Gu!” someone exclaimed, recognizing the figure in an instant.

However, it wasn’t over yet. A radiant light burst forth from the Reincarnation Ancestral Stone, shooting up into the skies with a thunderous roar.

An elder clad in white robes appeared. His hair was gray, and his determined face was covered with wrinkles.

"Tianxing Ruler Feng Zong!" Another voice rang out from the crowd.

Just as Feng Zong stepped forward, another beam of light shot up from the stone, tearing through the sky. A man in black robes emerged. He emitted a noble and regal air, telling everyone that he was indeed a ruler.

"Tianxing Ruler Xiang Qian!" the crowd exclaimed and gasped in unison. Their shock was palpable, as three Tianxing Rulers had all gathered in one place.

Just then, someone shouted, "Maybe… we should summon the first Tianxing Ruler as well? Fu Wu is far too powerful. We can't afford to take any chances!”

The others nodded in agreement.

It wasn’t that they doubted the strength of the three Tianxing Rulers—they were legends, after all. Unfortunately, Fu Wu's strength was on a whole new level. Besides, these rulers weren't here with their true bodies.

A sense of unease spread through the group.

Why not summon every ancestor at once? Better safe than sorry.

However, the Reincarnation Ancestral Stone remained still, showing no further reaction.

Yi Nian walked up to Ye Guan and asked, "Hubby, why isn't the first Tianxing Ruler being summoned?"

Ye Guan glanced at the stone and calmly said, "The first Tianxing Ruler… well, they’ve got an image to maintain."

Yi Nian was speechless.

The three Tianxing Rulers turned to look at Fu Wu, and their expressions revealed surprise. Was their greatest foe someone who had once been one of their own? The three exchanged uncertain glances. Confusion weighed heavily on their minds.

Just then, the Reincarnation Ancestral Stone trembled and information flowed into their consciousness.

Instantly, their faces darkened.

The sins of the fifth Tianxing Ruler…

Fu Wu took a single step forward. It was just a single step, but an overwhelming energy rippled outward, blanketing the heavens and the earth.

Ye Guan’s face shifted in alarm. He immediately unleashed his Invincible Sword Intent, but it was swiftly crushed back into his body before it could fully manifest.

Panic seized him. In a desperate attempt, he summoned his sword intent again, only to watch it get forcibly pushed back once more. It felt as though a mountain of pressure was bearing down on his chest, making it difficult to breathe.

Yi Nian standing nearby turned pale, and her figure trembled uncontrollably under the weight of the invisible force.

Ye Guan glared at Fu Wu in the distance as his heart sank. Am I just a weakling again? Damn it! I can’t accept this! Did I spend all those years of grueling training in the tiny pagoda to be reduced to a mere side character again?

Hell no!

A roar of defiance ripped from Ye Guan’s throat as he unleashed his sword intent, but as soon as it appeared, it was immediately suppressed.

However, Ye Guan had no plans of giving up.

Clenching his fists, he screamed in fury, channeling every ounce of his will. His sword intent surged once more, taking the form of a sword to shield him from the crushing force.

The sword was his will!

His figure shook violently, and every nerve screamed in pain but he held on. He couldn’t retreat here!

My sword intent is the Invincible Sword Intent.

He could respect gods in his heart, but there was only one god allowed in his heart— his plain-skirt aunt. He would never let anyone else replace her, not even Fu Wu. If he allowed himself to be suppressed here, his Invincible Sword Intent would become a joke.

He couldn’t tolerate that...

The pain was immense, and the pressure was unbearable.

Ye Guan's bones threatened to shatter beneath all the weight, but he didn’t give up.

There was only one thought in his mind—endure.

Crack!

Cracks appeared across Ye Guan's figure, and blood gushed from his wounds.

Despite that, his gaze remained fixed on Fu Wu, and his resolve was unwavering. His sword intent was quivering, but it refused to break. Although his sword intent couldn’t expand beyond the crushing force, it wasn’t being suppressed anymore.

Far in the distance, Fu Wu stared at Ye Guan but quickly looked away. Her focus returned to the three Tianxing Rulers, who were staring at her with unprecedented seriousness.

Fu Wu was clearly no ordinary foe.

The instant she released her oppressive force, the three of them felt it. They felt a power far beyond their expectations.

Exchanging glances, the three Tianxing Rulers understood that this was a fight to the death.

They had no intention of holding back. They weren’t in their true forms, but they knew that a prolonged battle would only weaken them. After all, time was not on their side.

Without hesitation, the three of them transformed into blazing pillars of fire, hurtling toward Fu Wu with full force. However, Fu Wu’s expression remained unchanged.

She took another step forward and her figure flickered. In an instant, she appeared hundreds of meters away, behind the charging flames.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The three fire pillars shattered, scattering sparks across the sky.

The world went silent once more.

The three Tianxing Rulers hadn’t even lasted a single move.

Despair descended upon the Tianxing Civilization…

When the three Tianxing Rulers were slain, the oppressive force that filled the air vanished without a trace. From a distance, Ye Guan felt an immense weight lifted from his chest, and he almost collapsed to the ground in relief. His appearance was a ghastly sight—cracks covered his entire body, blood flowed freely from his wounds, and even his bones had begun to fracture...

Yet, despite it all, his sword intent had stubbornly withstood the crushing pressure.

Just as he slowly sank to the ground, his sword intent suddenly surged with newfound power, exploding in strength.

After his breakthrough, his sword intent was renewed. Ye Guan's sword intent grew stronger and stronger, swelling like a raging torrent that swept across the heavens, causing the entire world to tremble.

The experts of the Tianxing Civilization turned to look at him.

Ye Guan's sword intent released a terrifying aura as it pervaded the air. At first, it was simply raw force, but soon it began to evolve, infused with a terrifying willpower.

It was Ye Guan's indomitable will!

As it took shape, the sword intent skyrocketed in strength, and a suffocating pressure descended upon the world.

Unbeknownst to everyone, there was a certain lady watching the unfolding scene from up above. She was none other than Wu Yi from the Wujian Universe, and an elderly man in black robes was standing silently behind her.

She had come alongside Fu Wu, and she had witnessed everything that had happened within the Tianxing Civilization.

She was surprised by Fu Wu's strength, as the latter's power exceeded their expectations. However, Fu Wu's unexpected level of strength was great news for them.

Wu Yi's face darkened upon seeing Ye Guan's breakthrough. In her eyes, killing Ye Guan was far more important than wiping out the Tianxing Civilization. Of course, she restrained herself. The bigger picture was more important than her feelings!

Glancing down at Ye Guan, she chuckled softly, completely unfazed by his breakthrough.

An ant remains an ant, even if it grows larger—it’s still just an ant.

Wu Yi suddenly asked, "When will the Sacred Kings arrive?"

The old man in black answered, "Soon."

Wu Yi nodded and slowly closed her eyes. A faint smile tugged at her lips and it grew wider and wider as if she had just thought of something amusing.

Hum!

Just then, a resonant sword hum echoed. Ye Guan's Invincible Sword Intent pervaded the skies once more before receding into him.

Boom!

Ye Guan's eyes snapped wide open, and his sword intent flickered within his eyes.

Little Pagoda spoke softly, "Congratulations."

"For what?"

"Under that immense pressure, your will remained unwavering, and your Dao heart became complete. Your Invincible Sword Intent has attained the Dao."

Curious, Ye Guan asked, "What does attained the Dao mean in terms of realms?"

Little Pagoda replied, "It's more of a state of mind. Simply put, your sword intent is now truly pure. Aside from Fu Wu, you’re likely the strongest one here. Even those Tianxing Rulers are probably no match for you now.

"Of course, you still wouldn't be able to defeat their real bodies. As for Qiu Baiyi, he’s no longer your equal either. All in all, you’re finally strong enough to be considered a pretty strong swordsman."

Ye Guan’s face darkened. After all that struggle, was he only pretty strong?

Fu Wu glanced at Ye Guan before turning her gaze back to the Reincarnation Ancestral Stone. Just then, the stone transformed into a beam of faint light that flew toward Ye Guan.

Ye Guan froze in confusion. Without a second thought, however, he kicked the stone away and exclaimed, "I don't want you!"

The Reincarnation Ancestral Stone had no idea what to say.
