I Have a Sword

Chapter 1184: The World Is Vast



The eleven Imperial Guards charged at the same time, unleashing an overwhelming force that caused the entire starry sky to boil under the immense pressure.

Sima Feng and the others turned deathly pale. These powerful guards were far beyond anything they could contend with.

At that moment, Ye An gently tapped her right foot on the ground and vanished.

Swoosh!

A spear light flew across the battlefield like a bolt of lightning.

With a piercing, ear-splitting tearing sound, the eleven Imperial Guards froze in place.

Ye An reappeared a few meters behind them. Their eyes were wide open, and each of their throats bore a spear wound, blood gushing like fountains.

She killed eleven of them with one spear attack!

Zhou Yan's face was filled with disbelief. "H-how… is this possible…?"

For the first time, genuine terror gripped him. People with thirty percent divinity were considered mid-tier elites even in the Great Zhou, but eleven of such experts were killed in an instant.

Sima Feng and the others erupted into cheers. They had never imagined that the Academy Master's sister would be so terrifying. On second thought, it made perfect sense. The Academy Master was powerful, so how could his sister be any weaker than him?

After killing the eleven guards with a single strike, Ye An turned to Zhou Yan.

Ye An's gaze sent a chill down Zhou Yan's spine, making him tremble in fear.

He stammered, "H-how dare you slaughter the Great Zhou's elites! You…"

Ye An stared at him calmly. "Do you really think that the Great Zhou is strong?"

Zhou Yan's heart pounded in terror. He finally realized that Ye An wasn't afraid of the Great Zhou at all.

Meanwhile, Chen Xiao felt utterly hopeless. He could see the situation clearly, even if Zhou Yan couldn't see it. She was the Academy Master's sister! Why would she fear the Great Zhou?

She wasn't even afraid of the Academy Master himself!

Trying to intimidate her with the Great Zhou's power was nothing but a joke.

If surrendering were to guarantee survival, he would surrender this instant. But he knew that things had already escalated beyond the point of no return. Even if he surrendered, neither he nor the Chen Clan would have a good ending.

With that realization, Chen Xiao turned toward Zhou Yan.

At this point, the Great Zhou was their only hope.

He transmitted his voice to Zhou Yan, saying, "Clan Leader Zhou, we can't retreat here. If we want to survive, we must kill her."

Chen Xiao understood all too well that Ye An's influence far surpassed that of Fang Yu. If she returned to the Guanxuan Universe and exposed what had happened here, even the Great Zhou would struggle to suppress the fallout.

Zhou Yan's expression turned grim as he processed Chen Xiao's words. He also wanted nothing more than to kill Ye An, but she was just too strong. Even experts with thirty percent divinity were as powerless as ants before her.

Chen Xiao hurriedly said, "Clan Leader Zhou, we have no choice here."

It was a great awakening for Zhou Yan. Indeed, they had no choice. It was either kill or be killed.

With that thought, a fierce glint flashed in his eyes. He glared at Ye An and snarled, "Just because you're the Academy Master's sister, do you really think that you can trample on the Great Zhou?

"Do you really believe that the Great Zhou has no one left to fight for it?"

Zhou Yan opened his palm, and a talisman transformed into a blazing streak of flames, shooting into the depths of the starry sky before disappearing into thin air.

Ye An glanced at the streak of flame and didn't try to stop it. Instead, she glanced at Ye Ye Guan in the distance.

Ye Guan was at a loss for words. Why is she looking at me? Did she figure it out? But that's impossible… My disguise is perfect!

Sima Feng cautiously approached Ye An.

After a brief hesitation, he asked, "Lady Ye An, should we return to the Guanxuan Universe first?"

Seeing that Zhou Yan was still calling for reinforcements, Sima Feng realized that Zhou Yan intended to fight to the bitter end. He wasn't sure how powerful Ye An truly was, so he thought that returning to the Guanxuan Universe would be the safest bet.

These people were clearly desperate and were willing to do anything.

Moreover, Zhou Yan obviously had powerful people backing him up.

Sima Feng dared not underestimate the power of the Great Zhou.

Ye An swept her gaze across Zhou Yan and his men before replying, "No need."

Sima Feng opened his mouth to speak but hesitated. Beside him, Qu Chen also added cautiously, "Lady Ye An, this is more complicated than it—"

"No need to worry," Ye An interrupted him. "Everything is under a certain someone's control."

Ye An's meaningful gaze landed briefly on Ye Guan.

Qu Chen and Sima Feng exchanged bewildered glances. What is she talking about?

Ye An didn't make another move.

Zhou Yan and his men dared not attack her.

A deathly silence descended upon the region.

After a while, Ye An walked slowly toward Zang Gang, clearly intrigued by her. Zang Gang stared at Ye An without speaking or making a move. She was reckless, but she wasn't foolish.

"What's your name?" Ye An asked.

Zang Gang turned her head away, refusing to answer.

Without warning, Ye An grabbed her shoulder, spun her around, and kicked her hard on the buttocks.

Bam!

Zang Gang flew more than ten meters away before crashing heavily to the ground, eating a mouthful of dirt.

Ye Guan was speechless.

Sima Feng and Qu Chen glanced at each other, stunned.

Ye An's temper was just absurd.

Zang Gang scrambled up from the ground with her face covered in dirt. Furious, she charged at Ye An and slashed at her with her dagger.

Ye An chuckled. "That's a fiery temper."

Before Zang Gang could react, she felt a sharp pain in her buttocks and was sent flying again, rendering everyone speechless.

Zang Gang quickly got up to her feet and trembled with rage. The wild, chaotic power of her Mad Demon Bloodline surged violently within her.

Sima Feng and Qu Chen were shocked by the terrifying aura radiating from her.

Meanwhile, a flicker of surprise flashed through Ye An's eyes. She grew even more curious about the fierce young girl. Zang Gang truly had the same Mad Demon Bloodline as Ye An.

Zang Gang did not make a move again. Instead, she walked slowly to Ye Guan's side, tugged on his arm, and pointed at Ye An in the distance while clenching her fist. Clearly, she wanted Ye Guan to fight her.

Ye Guan quickly shook her head. "I can't beat her!"

Ye An glanced at the both of them and was about to speak when she noticed something.

Zhou Yan was shining with excitement.

Ye An turned toward him, and Zhou Yan stared back at her with his eyes devoid of fear.

Boom!

A terrifying aura rushed toward them from the distant starry sky.

Sima Feng and Qu Chen's faces darkened, but they were more angry than afraid. They couldn't believe that Zhou Yan still dared to summon reinforcements. He was truly scum.

Ye An turned to look at the sky.

Far away, spacetime fractured, and a middle-aged man slowly emerged from the rift. He wore a flowing, broad-sleeved robe, with long hair cascading over his shoulders. He had a pair of deep, fierce eyes, and his every step radiated an overwhelming, oppressive force.

The middle-aged man was none other than Lin Cang! He was the Commander of the Great Zhou Imperial Guards, overseeing all of the Great Zhou's elite forces. He was a Divine Dao Expert with ninety percent divinity.

Sima Feng and Qu Chen's expressions turned grim. Lin Cang's strength was unfathomable, and he was far beyond what they could handle.

Lin Cang looked at Ye An and said, "Even as the Academy Master's sister, you have no right to kill people from the Great Zhou."

Ye An smiled. "Do you even know what your people have done?"

Lin Cang retorted, "Regardless of what they have done, you still don't have the right to kill them."

"Your Excellency!" Sima Feng exclaimed. "Zhou Yan has colluded with the Chen Clan in an attempt to destroy a continent with billions of lives for the sake of profits. Moreover, he has unlawfully executed members of the Immortal Treasures Pavilion and has attempted to kill Department Chief Fang Yu.

"He has committed heinous crimes—"

"So what?" Lin Cang turned sharply toward Sima Feng, cutting him off. "Why can't they kill him?"

Sima Feng was stunned. Then, he erupted in fury. "No wonder the Great Zhou's people are so lawless and deranged! When the people on top are corrupt, the rest truly follow in their steps. The Great Zhou is rotten to the core. It is—"

Lin Cang stepped forward, and a wave of powerful energy enveloped Sima Feng, boring down on him like a mountain. He gasped, barely able to breathe under the crushing pressure.

Ye An took a single step forward.

Boom!

A terrifying spear light surged from her, shattering the powerful energy around Sima Feng.

Lin Cang's eyes narrowed as he stared at Ye An. "I seem to have underestimated you."

Ye An walked toward Lin Cang, and her expression was calm as she said, "I thought your people acted out of greed and committed atrocities on their own volition.

"Now I can see it. They only did what they have done because the higher-ups are backing them up."

Lin Cang's eyes gleamed with a solemn light. He realized that Ye An was far stronger than he had anticipated.

Lin Cang waved his hand, and the nearby spacetime erupted into chaos as nearly a hundred Great Zhou Imperial Guards emerged from the rifts. All of them were Divine Dao Realm experts with fifty percent divinity!

Sima Feng and Qu Chen's expressions changed. Sima Feng pointed at Lin Cang and roared, "She's the Academy Master's sister and a member of the Yang Family! Your Great Zhou actually dares to kill her?"

Lin Cang said coldly, "The world is vast, and the Academy Master is distant. Do you really think that anyone will know if she ends up dying here?"

Sima Feng's expression darkened, but he fell silent upon realizing something. The people before him had no idea how strong the Yang Family was, and perhaps only the Great Zhou's core figures knew their true strength.
