I Have A Sword

Chapter 791: No Wonder Your Grandson Got Killed

Xuan Ce and his companions were shocked; even Taia Tian and the others in hiding were stupefied as well.

The Asura Divine Guards were one of the strongest trump cards of the Asura Civilization. They were stationed near Asura City and could only remain in slumber for some reason. They were not awakened unless it was absolutely necessary.

The Asura Civilization's history spanned billions of years, but the Asura Divine Guards were only awakened three times. Every time they were awakened, they helped the Asura Civilization go through critical junctures.

Thus, no one expected that the Supreme Scholar would directly awaken the Asura Divine Guards! No one expected her to start the game with her trump card.

It wasn't just the Xuan Clan and the observers nearby; the entire Asura Civilization was shocked as well.

Rumble!

The void nearby was torn apart as powerful Asura Divine Guards emerged from the rifts.

Ye Guan's expression became serious upon seeing the Asura Divine Guards.

Even the dense spacetime of the Asura Civilization quivered under the presence of over ten thousand Asura Divine Guards; the Asura Divine Guards were so strong that everything around them became illusory, unable to withstand their might.

It was a terrifying sight! The weakest among them was an expert with seventy percent accumulated divinity. Moreover, every single Asura Divine Guard exuded extremely powerful battle intent. This was an absurd sight to behold.

Ye Guan finally realized just how terrifying the Asura Civilization was.

No wonder the Forest Civilization decisively chose to return to the same vast expanse as the Guanxuan Universe upon discovering the Asura Civilization's approach.

Meanwhile, the Asura Divine Guards saluted Xin Yu.

Except for the Asura King, the Supreme Scholar was the only one capable of awakening the Asura Divine Guards from their slumber. It was all because the armed force was established by the first Asura King and the first Supreme Scholar. Thus, these divine guards would obey only the Asura King and the Supreme Scholar.

Xuan Ce's face was extremely grim as he stared at the Asura Divine Guards.

The Xuan Clan couldn't possibly contend with these Asura Divine Guards—they simply couldn't defeat them.

Xin Yu turned to Ye Guan and said, "I'm sorry. I had no idea that this would happen. I really am sorry."

Ye Guan smiled and replied, "It's not your fault."

Xin Yu shook her head slightly and then looked at the leader of the Asura Divine Guards in the distance. "Escort Young Master Ye out of the Asura Clan."

The leader of the Asura Divine Guards bowed slightly to Xin Yu before turning to Ye Guan. "Please."

Ye Guan stared deeply at Xin Yu. "Until we meet again."

Xin Yu smiled. "Can you give me a way to contact you?"

Ye Guan hesitated for a moment before taking out a transmission talisman and handing it over to Xin Yu.

Xin Yu smiled. "Hurry up. Leave now."

Ye Guan nodded and soared to the sky on his sword. He was about to break through the void and leave when an overwhelming aura descended on Ye Guan like a waterfall, forcing him back to the ground.

Everyone was stunned.

Ye Guan landed beside Xin Yu.Finnd new chapters at novelhall.com

Xin Yu's eyes narrowed slightly.

The Asura Divine Guards took to the sky and were about to make a move, but they all came to a screeching halt.

They descended and returned to their positions.

Xin Yu frowned at the sight.

"You're saying that he's a threat as a justification to make a move against Young Master Ye and seize his divine artifact," Taia Tian added.

"And what's wrong with that?" Xuan Ce chimed in, chuckling, "Our Asura Civilization was founded on strength and seizing opportunities. He has a divine artifact from a Tier Four civilization. Why shouldn't we take it? Aren't we living in a world where the strong reigns supreme?"

Taia Tian glanced at Xuan Ce and remarked, "No wonder your grandson got killed."

Xuan Ming was Xuan Ce’s grandson.

Xuan Ce's face darkened instantly. "Taia Tian, don’t forget the teachings of our ancestors—we must unite against outsiders."

Taia Tian was silent. Indeed, he could secretly support Ye Guan, but he couldn't do so openly, as Ye Guan was not a part of the Asura Civilization.

The Asura Civilization had to always stay united against outsiders. This was a rule that no one dared to break, as it was established by their ancestors. Defying this rule meant defying their own ancestors.

"He's not an outsider," the Supreme Scholar said.

Everyone cast an astonished gaze at the Supreme Scholar.

The Supreme Scholar glanced at Ye Guan and said, "I forgot to mention, Young Master Ye and I are in love. I invited him to the Asura Clan for us to get married here."

Everyone was in an uproar.

What?!

Ye Guan was also taken aback.

Taia Tian stared wordlessly at the Supreme Scholar. He was genuinely surprised. He didn't believe the Supreme Scholar's claim. He was surprised by the fact that she was willing to go as far as to ruin her own reputation to save the young swordsman. It was stupefying and bizarre at the same time.

Taia Tian stared deeply at Ye Guan. He seemed to have greatly underestimated the young swordsman.

The young woman in a dark robe was astonished as well, and she cast a thoughtful gaze at Ye Guan.

Asura Xiao's face grew even darker. "Supreme Scholar, you can't just say that, you—"

"I'm serious," the Supreme Scholar interrupted.

Xuan Ce suddenly spoke up, "But you two are not married yet! Technically, he's still an outsider."

The Supreme Scholar stared wordlessly at Xuan Ce.

Xuan Ce asked, "Is it really worth sacrificing your reputation to protect an outsider?"

The Supreme Scholar was about to respond when Ye Guan stepped forward and said, "Supreme Scholar and I are just friends, nothing more, nothing less."

Everyone looked at Ye Guan.

The Supreme Scholar looked at Ye Guan.

Ye Guan smiled at her and said, "Lady Xinyu, I appreciate your kindness, but I cannot let you sacrifice your reputation for my sake."

He then swept his gaze across Xuan Ce and Asura Xiao. "You want my divine items, right? Fine, I will give them to you in exchange for my safety."

With that, he waved his sleeve, sending out the blood-red coffin. The blood-red coffin landed steadily in front of Xuan Ce.

However, Ye Guan wasn't done yet, He opened his palm, and the Qingxuan Sword flew toward Xuan Ce as well.

Everyone was stunned by Ye Guan's decisive actions.

Meanwhile, Asura Xiao's gaze was transfixed on the blood-red coffin and the Qingxuan Sword in front of Xuan Ce.
