I Have A Sword

Chapter 636: Brother, Don't Hit Me

Erya licked her hawthorn candy as she leisurely walked down the streets. Perched on her shoulder, Little White was still holding the Qingxuan Sword, and her eyes darting around every now and then. Four Dao Soldiers stood behind the four, and they had been following the two for quite a while now. They had considered working together to subdue these two brats, but after witnessing the little girl knock out one of the Dao Soldiers with a punch, they quickly abandoned the idea.

At this point, they couldn't do anything other than just wait for the Judicial Sovereign's arrival.

They could only hope that these two brats wouldn't cause any trouble.

Suddenly, the little girl stared at the distant teleportation array and said, "Did we just see our grandson in that array?"

Grandson?

Little White quickly looked in the direction of the teleportation array as well, but it was empty. It blinked before it waved its little claws around.

Erya licked her candied haw and said, "Hmm, was it just my imagination?"

Little White waved the Qingxuan Sword around, as if trying to say something.

After a moment of silence, Erya said, "I don't think I would've seen it wrongly... Let's go, we'll check it out."

Then, she walked over together with Little White.

However, they were quickly stopped by the old man standing next to the teleportation array. He glanced at both of them and said, "One Ancestral Origin per person."

Erya opened her palm and two Ancestral Origins floated to the old man, who stepped aside after receiving it.

With Little White in her arms, Erya walked into the teleportation array. As they passed by the old man, Erya glanced at him sideways, her face full of confusion as she asked, "Why do you even want this junk?"

The old man: "???"

Little White hesitated for a moment before she handed an Ancestral Vein to the old man, which made him very puzzled.

Erya explained, "She finds you too pitiful."

The old man was speechless.

And so, Erya entered the teleportation array together with Little White.

At the same spot, the old man stood there, completely bewildered. Am I really that poor?

Meanwhile, the four Dao Soldiers in the distance heaved a sigh of relief. Those two brats had finally left. They had to admit that having those two troublemakers wandering around this place put a lot of pressure on them. It was good that they finally left. However, this did not mean it was over, because the four of them realized that there were many obscure auras hiding around them.

That white creature was a Spirit Progenitor! Moreover, there was only a little girl following it. Even though this little girl seemed capable of fighting, she did not seem that terrifying. Hence, many people were harboring bad intentions. A Spirit Progenitor was not something that divine treasures could compare to. Furthermore, this Spirit Progenitor possessed countless of its own divine treasures.

Hence, many people had secretly contacted their family members to send some elites over.

...

After an unknown amount of time had passed, Ye Guan opened his eyes. When he did, he found himself in a vast mountain range. Mountains stretched endlessly in all directions, as far as the eye could see.

Meanwhile, all around him, everyone in his expedition group was on high alert.

Captain Mu ordered, "Let's go."

Then, she turned around and walked off into the distance.

Beside Ye Guan, Wang Shou explained, "We can't fly in here. If we do, we will alert the great demonic beasts here. So, we can only walk. Not only that, we also have to conceal our auras."

Ye Guan nodded in understanding and concealed his aura immediately.

Beside him, Wang Shou's face paled a little. If Ye Guan had not pulled him away, he would have followed that group into retrieving the demonic beast corpse. He wiped off the cold sweat that formed on his forehead and said, "Brother Ye, you knew that was a trap?"

"No, I didn't know," Ye Guan replied.

Wang Shou was puzzled.

Ye Guan looked at Captain Mu who was in front of him and said, "The captain is right. When something out of the ordinary happens, there must be a demonic beast nearby. This method is somewhat similar to the way the people in my family handle things..."

He stopped abruptly mid-sentence.

Wang Shou laughed bitterly. "Actually, I also felt that something was amiss, but I still wanted to go and try my luck..."

The black-robed young man spoke in a cold tone, "On the path of cultivation, the worst thing you can do is rely on luck. Someone might save you this time, but it might not happen next time."

Wang Shou sighed, no longer saying anything.

Ye Guan glanced at the black-robed young man before looking back at Wang Shou, saying, "Brother Wang, just take this incident as a lesson. Besides, the reason why I chose not to go with them is not entirely because I thought it was a trap..."

Wang Shou looked curious. "Is there another reason?"

"Yes."

"What's the reason?"

"Because I'm very wealthy. I'm not interested in a demonic beast in the Divine Dao Realm at all."

Wang Shou's expression froze.

The black-robed young man looked at Ye Guan and asked, "Are you very rich?"

Ye Guan nodded.

The black-robed young man chuckled and snapped, "You're this inexperienced, and you dare to say that you're rich? What a joke."

Ye Guan merely smiled, not bothering to engage in the youth's provocation. He continued saying to Wang Shou, "If I were also poor, I would also have such greedy thoughts and I would want to take risks too. So, Brother Wang, don't think too much about it. It's normal to have such thoughts, but in the future, you should be more cautious. After all, greed can often consume our rationality, which may lead to our demise."

Wang Shou smiled slightly, feeling warm inside. Brother Ye truly has such a good personality!

Captain Mu glanced at Ye Guan for a second before continuing to lead the way.

Right at this moment, the black-robed young man chimed in, "Aren't you very rich? Since you're rich, why did you take the risk to come here?"

Ye Guan replied, "We have no grievances between us, so why are you being so hostile towards me? It's better to work together so we can get rich together."

The black-robed young man glared coldly at him and said, "I hate people like you, who pretend to be something you're not, with no real skills. All you do is pretend. Furthermore, you're not qualified to work together with someone like me..."

Suddenly, Ye Guan disappeared from where he was standing, and before the young man could react, he received a resounding slap across his face.

Smack!

The young man was sent flying for more than ten meters.

Ye Guan smacked his hands together and then remarked calmly, "I guess sometimes it's better not to let someone get too carried away with their insults. Sometimes, when you tolerate someone too much, they think they can trample all over you..."

Then, he rushed towards the black-robed young man, who immediately raised both his hands and said in a trembling voice, "Sorry, Big Brother Ye, don't hit me, I surrender..."

Ye Guan and Wang Shou were both speechless.
