I Have A Sword

Chapter 1151: Bow to Your Aunt

Ye Guan looked up at Plain-Skirt Destiny, his face filled with shock. "Aunt..."

Plain-Skirt Destiny was silent for a moment, then said calmly, "I couldn't control my strength... What? Is there a problem with bowing to your aunt?"

Ye Guan was at a loss for words. Bowing to her!

Ye Guan froze, but upon seeing her delicate brows frowning slowly, he quickly responded, "Of course, I'll bow! It's what I should do. I'll even bow a few more times if you like!"

Plain-Skirt Destiny nodded in satisfaction and gently raised her hand. Ye Guan was pulled to his feet as if lifted by an invisible force.

Standing there, Ye Guan was stunned beyond words. Just moments ago, he had been unable to move, as if every ounce of strength in his body had been drained.

She was too terrifying.

It wasn't just Ye Guan; the other cultivators also stared at Plain-Skirt Destiny as if she were some divine being—or the devil herself.

With a single command, they all knelt—every single one of them.

They couldn't resist at all.

They were so afraid that their fear seemed palpable.

Even the Hall Master of the Temporal Dao Hall was utterly paralyzed. He knelt there, his soul almost leaving his body.

It was absurd. He was from a Tier Seven Civilization.

He couldn't even fight back before he was forced to his knees.

Even worse, when he tried to resist, his heart sank immediately, realizing that he couldn't resist at all. His strength and techniques were utterly useless.

It defied all logic.

The Hall Master of the Temporal Dao Hall stared blankly at Plain-Skirt Destiny, his mind a whirlwind of despair and disbelief.

Fan Zhaodi glanced at Plain-Skirt Destiny but said nothing. However, her face was dark.

When Ye Guan stood up, the mysterious pressure that had gripped the other cultivators faded. However, the Hall Master and Si Wen remained kneeling on the ground. rã₦оΒĘŝ

Si Wen, upon seeing the Hall Master kneel, felt his heart shatter completely.

Now, he truly understood just how insignificant they were in front of Plain-Skirt Destiny. They were not even ants to her! Si Wen's face turned ashen.

Plain-Skirt Destiny turned her gaze to Chen Zong. Just as he was about to speak, she waved her hand gently. In an instant, he disintegrated into ash.

The same fate befell Si Wen.

However, the Multiverse Emperor remained untouched. He had been kneeling the whole time, and he dared not rise.

Plain-Skirt Destiny turned her calm gaze back to Ye Guan.

Ye Guan felt a chill run down his spine. Among all his aunts, the one he feared the most was her, followed closely by Ye Qingqing. The former tended to get inexplicably angry and become violent, while the latter rarely got angry but was extremely terrifying once infuriated.

Plain-Skirt Destiny suddenly spoke. "Will you help me with something?"

Ye Guan's curiosity was piqued. "What is it?"

She gave him a faint look, and Ye Guan immediately caught her meaning. "Anything you ask, I'll gladly do!"

She nodded approvingly. "Take a walk with me."

With that, she turned and walked into the distance.

Ye Guan hurried to follow.

The other cultivators exchanged nervous glances, unsure of what to do.

The Multiverse Emperor remained kneeling dutifully, not daring to lift his head.

Fan Zhaodi frowned slightly as she watched the aunt and nephew pair disappear into the distance.

Meanwhile, Ye Guan followed Plain-Skirt Destiny silently. The aftermath of their earlier battle had left this starry region in ruins; it had become a vast stretch of nothingness, dark and desolate.

Just as Ye Guan was about to speak, Plain-Skirt Destiny raised her hand.

Actually, Ye Guan was still a bit hesitant. After all, he wouldn't be in the Guanxuan Universe. The Guanxuan Universe was his territory, his domain. No matter how bad things got there, true despair would never happen to him.

However, he was heading into someone else's territory. There would be no room for recklessness, and to make matters worse, he had no idea what tier the civilization he was about to enter.

Plain-Skirt Destiny glanced at Ye Guan and said calmly, "It's settled, then."

Ye Guan gave a wry smile.

Plain-Skirt Destiny raised an eyebrow at him. "What? Are you unwilling?"

Ye Guan quickly shook his head. "No, no, I'm very willing... Aunt, if I succeed, you'll help me light up the last square of the Qingxuan Sword. But if I fail?"

"I believe in you. You won't fail."

Ye Guan persisted, "But what if I do?"

"Then I will protect you for the rest of your life."

Ye Guan froze for a moment, then smiled. "Aunt, I won't fail."

He understood. This wasn't just a test for him; it was likely a test from both Plain-Skirt Destiny and his father. He wasn't worried about the test itself. What truly concerned him was why they suddenly decided to put him through this trial.

"Go wrap things up. I'll send you off shortly."

"Aunt, what tier of civilization am I about to enter?"

"You'll find out when you get there."

Ye Guan chuckled. "Alright, then!"

With that, he and Plain-Skirt Destiny began to walk back.

***

Ye Guan found the Multiverse Emperor, who was still kneeling.

When the surrounding cultivators saw Plain-Skirt Destiny, they all displayed expressions of deep reverence and awe.

Ye Guan walked up to the Multiverse Emperor, who immediately bowed deeply toward him and said, "Godfather."

Ye Guan said, "Get up."

The Multiverse Emperor slowly stood.

Ye Guan looked at him and said, "I need your help with something."

The Multiverse Emperor replied respectfully, "Please command me, Godfather."

Ye Guan said, "I've already integrated the Supreme Laws of this place into the Guanxuan Law, but there's still much left unfinished. I need you to complete it for me."

As he spoke, he handed the Supreme Law Seal to the Multiverse Emperor.

The Multiverse Emperor hesitated, wanting to speak but stopping himself.

Ye Guan frowned slightly. "What is it?"

The Multiverse Emperor bowed and said, "Godfather, this is only a fragment of my soul. My main body is not here. My current strength is less than one percent of my peak. I no longer have the ability to control the Supreme Laws..."

Ye Guan's frown deepened.

At this moment, Plain-Skirt Destiny suddenly extended a finger and lightly tapped the Multiverse Emperor.

Boom!

In an instant, the Multiverse Emperor's eyes flew open in shock.

At the gates of the Genesis Daoist Temple, the guard who had been slumped on the ground suddenly sensed something and whipped his head around. To his astonishment, the Multiverse Emperor, who had previously been erased, reappeared out of thin air.

He was alive again!

Seeing this, the guard collapsed back onto the ground, his eyes wide with disbelief. He was completely stunned.

"Hmm?" A faint voice echoed from within the Genesis Daoist Temple. "Reversing life and death, disregarding the rules of the Life and Death Dao Laws... How unexpected. I never thought that someone else in this place had such power. How interesting..."
