I Have A Sword

Chapter 683: The God Clan Is Determined to Kill You

The powerful clan elders in the hall were stunned. They didn't expect that the clan leader had already considered such a possibility.

Ye Guan and Zhen Nanxue?

Everyone suddenly thought that perhaps it wasn't such a bad idea. After all, Young Master Ye was indeed exceptional. Even without a powerful family background, he was still worthy of Zhen Nanxue, but the fact that he had an extraordinary background meant that he was more than qualified for Zhen Nanxue. If the two were to unite, then their two families would effectively become one.

Everyone became less resistant to the idea of an alliance with Ye Guan.

Just then, an elder walked into the hall. He respectfully saluted everyone before saying, "Shen Wu from the God Clan will soon arrive at our clan. What should we do, Clan Leader?"

Zhen Tian stood up and said, "Get ready to welcome them."

Zhen Tian's succinct response told everyone that he had made up his mind, so everyone simply decided to remain silent.

***

Zhen Nanxue and Ye Guan were sitting facing each other in a side hall.

Zhen Nanxue stared wordlessly at Ye Guan.

"Miss Nanxue... if you keep staring at me like that, I'm going to get a bit embarrassed."

Zhen Nanxue smiled and asked, "Young Master Ye, I'm very curious about your background."

Ye Guan merely smiled.

"If the God Clan and the Ancient Wilderness want to borrow this diary, would you lend it to them?"

"What do you think would I do?"

Zhen Nanxue shook her head and said, "I don't think you're going to let them borrow it."

"That's right," Ye Guan said, nodding, "People should reciprocate kindness with kindness. I wouldn't mind letting them take a look at it if our relationship were great. They can attempt to take it away by force, but it would be... rather impolite of them."

"I think they still haven't realized just how approachable you are," Zhen Nanxue said. A complicated light flickered in her eyes. The three superpowers had long gotten accustomed to being arrogant. They had become arrogant to the extent that coercion or stealing had become their favorite method when it came to obtaining something they coveted, and it was a tactic that seldom failed. After all, who was daring enough to defy them? Unfortunately, the Ancient Wilderness and the God Clan had stumbled upon a formidable opponent. Young Master Ye was someone who yielded to kindness but not to force.

Zhen Nanxue turned and looked outside the hall, and her expression darkened upon seeing something. "The God Clan has arrived."

Ye Guan also looked outside, and his expression remained calm.

Just then, an elder suddenly appeared before them. He bowed slightly toward Ye Guan before saying, "Young Master Ye, the Clan Leader has asked for your presence."

Ye Guan nodded slightly and stood up to leave. Zhen Nanxue followed closely behind him.

Under the elder's guidance, Ye Guan and Zhen Nanxue soon found themselves outside the Zhen boundary.

Zhen Tian was already there, along with the elders of the Zhen Clan.

Zhen Tian smiled upon seeing Ye Guan, and he turned to look at the distant horizon, where a myriad of powerful auras could be felt fast approaching.

The God Clan was coming.

After a while, a middle-aged man clad in a dark gold battle armor appeared. He was Shen Wu of the God Clan, and he was not alone. The God Clan's top cultivators were standing closely behind him.

Shen Xue had come as well; she wanted to witness the strength of Ye Guan's family; she wanted to know why Ye Guan was so confident against them.

Shen Wu's brows furrowed upon seeing Ye Guan standing next to Zhen Tian.

Zhen Tian smiled and said, "Shen Wu, it's been a long time."

Shen Wu nodded slightly. "You should know why we are here."

"Young Master Ye has become one of us... he's become a part of the Zhen Clan," Zhen Tian said.

He's become a member of the Zhen Clan? Shen Wu's brows furrowed even deeper.

"Would your God Clan spare Ye Guan?" Zhen Tian asked.

"We can talk about it," Shen Wu replied.

Zhen Tian calmly replied, "I don't believe you."

Shen Wu glared at Zhen Tian and asked, "Why are you even supporting him to this extent?"

"It's all because Young Master Ye is practically a member of our Zhen Clan," Zhen Tian said blandly.

Shen Wu's brows furrowed deeply, but then he realized something and froze. "A marriage alliance!"

Zhen Tian nodded. "You got it right."

With that, Zhen Tian no longer wasted any time and charged straight at Shen Wu.

Shen Wu's face darkened even further. He hadn't expected the Zhen Clan to form a marriage alliance with Ye Guan. He cursed the God Clan's intelligence network for failing so miserably. To think that even their intelligence network would fail to discover such a fact. Unbeknownst to Shen Wu, the so-called marriage alliance had just been decided by Zhen Tian, so no one knew that it was going to happen except for Zhen Tian himself.

***

The God Clan had decided to send their top-tier supreme elites, as they were not willing to give Ye Guan any chance to live. However, they were inside the Zhen Clan’s territory.

More importantly, the Zhen Clan was going all out. In addition to the formations, they had also deployed their top-tier supreme elites. Thus, the God Clan members were swiftly overwhelmed, and they fell one after another.

Shen Xue had decided not to fight, as she knew that it would be futile. She turned to Ye Guan in the distance and asked, "Young Master Ye, can we talk?"

Zhen Nanxue glanced at Shen Xue but remained silent. She was familiar with Shen Xue. The two of them were women from prominent clans, so their paths had crossed numerous times at this point.

Could it be that Shen Xue had some personal connection with Ye Guan?

Zhen Nanxue turned to look at Ye Guan.

Ye Guan looked at Shen Xue and smiled. "So, you brought all these people here just to talk to me, Miss Shen?"

Shen Xue sounded earnest as she urged, "Young Master Ye, is it really impossible for us to talk?"

"We could have talked last time," Ye Guan said, shaking his head. "But now... I don't see the need for a conversation.

Shen Xue stared quietly at Ye Guan as the God Clan cultivators around her were getting slaughtered one by one.

Escape was impossible!

They thought that they had brought enough people, but it turned out to be the opposite.

Shen Xue smiled bitterly, realizing that she could die here.

Rumble!

Just then, a spacetime rift manifested before her.

A terrifying energy burst out of the spacetime rift, sending the Zhen Clan cultivators flying.

Moments later, a black vortex appeared, engulfing Shen Xue and the surviving God Clan cultivators.

Ye Guan frowned at the sight.

A Zhen Clan elder standing next to Ye Guan revealed a solemn look as he said, "It's Shen Qi; the God Clan's Clan Leader has decided to intervene."

The Clan Leader of the God Clan!

Ye Guan looked up at the black vortex. A shadowy figure was manifesting inside the vortex, and it was emanating a might so overwhelming that the surroundings seemed to be boiling beneath its power.

"You..." Shen Qi looked down at Ye Guan. "My God Clan is determined to kill you, so even the First God will not be able to save you!"
