I Have A Sword

Chapter 864: The Great Destiny

A pristine and pure plain skirt.

Everyone cast curious gazes on the lady in a plain skirt.

Those from the Great Zhou were naturally curious about Ye Guan's backers. After all, a prodigy like Ye Guan couldn’t have been nurtured by ordinary people.

However, they had no idea just how powerful Ye Guan’s backers were.

Soon, some of the Great Zhou elites revealed dark faces upon realizing that the lady in a plain skirt wasn't emitting even the slightest energy fluctuation, which was in stark contrast to the overwhelming aura of the Evil Dao Alliance's people.

"Old Daoist, why can’t I sense her?" Ci Tian asked, sounding confused. He realized that he couldn’t sense her presence at all, which was weird.

Dao Jun calmly asked back, "Maybe you’re just too weak?"

"Fuck you!" Ci Tian cursed, enraged.

Dao Jun ignored him and looked at the lady in a plain skirt with a hint of doubt in his eyes. He couldn’t sense her as well.

The moment the lady in a plain skirt appeared, the Great Zhou Emperor's expression became solemn. He couldn’t sense her, too!

There could only be two reasons as to why they couldn't sense the lady in a plain skirt's presence. She was either using a highly advanced method of concealment, hiding both her presence and aura, or she was too strong.

The Great Zhou Emperor was shocked, believing that it was the latter.

In the distance, Master Yue and others were also staring at the lady in a plain skirt.

Master Yue was quite disappointed. The lady in a plain skirt looked far too ordinary.

She wasn't emitting any energy fluctuation at all, which was really disappointing!

Master Yue felt somewhat fortunate that he hadn't left out of anxiety earlier. Otherwise, he would have lost the spoils of the Great Zhou.

When Ye Qingqing saw the lady in a plain skirt, she snorted coldly and turned around. Then, she hopped onto her sword and disappeared into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

The Tenth Hall Master glanced at the lady in a plain skirt and snickered, "I heard you never needed a second move to finish your enemies?"

The lady in a plain skirt ignored the Tenth Hall Master and turned to look at Ye Guan.

Ye Guan hurriedly said, "He's here for you, Aunt..."

Ye Guan had yet to forget how his aunt had beaten him up because his opponent was too weak. The memories of that time still filled him with dread.

The lady in a plain skirt withdrew her gaze and then turned to look at the Tenth Hall Master.

The Tenth Hall Master laughed and said, "Get ready. I’m going to smash your head with one punch."

The Tenth Hall Master stretched lazily, and his five fingers clenched into a fist. Then, he swung it at the lady in a plain skirt.

Boom!

The fist seemed capable of suppressing the Great Dao, and a terrifying wave of energy swept across everyone present.

Everyone felt suffocated. Some couldn't withstand the waves of pressure, and their fleshly bodies cracked open.

Even those in the Path Creation Realm revealed pale faces; the fist was too terrifying for them to withstand.

Ye Guan's face also changed dramatically, and he hurriedly stood in front of Zhou Fan, unleashing a wave of Invincible Sword Intent.

As soon as his Invincible Sword Intent appeared, however, it was instantly suppressed by the remnant aura of the Tenth Hall Master's fist.

Just then, the lady in a plain skirt suddenly waved her sleeve, sending a beam of sword light toward the fist.

Boom!

Before everyone could react, the fist imprint had already vanished without a trace.

When the beam of sword light dimmed, the Tenth Hall Master was revealed to everyone present, and they were all stupefied upon seeing him.

A sword was lodged between the Tenth Hall Master's eyebrows. He stood frozen as if he were an ice statue.

The scene made everyone reel in disbelief. It was over just like that?

Ci Tian's eyes were wide open, and he stammered, "A-a-amitabha... what the fuck..."

Dao Jun gulped and exclaimed, "Impressive!"

Prime Minister Yuan stared deeply at the lady in a plain skirt and gasped, "She's so strong."

The Great Zhou Emperor smiled bitterly. He knew the lady in a plain skirt was strong, but he didn’t expect her to be this strong.

A casual attack from her was enough to defeat a Path Creation Realm powerhouse.

It seemed that Path Creation Realm cultivators were mere ants in her eyes.

In the distance, Master Yue and others grew pale, and they trembled uncontrollably.

The casual attack from the lady in a plain skirt had left them dumbfounded.

Meanwhile, The Tenth Hall Master was stunned as well. He looked at the lady in a plain skirt in disbelief. "You... how is this possible..."

The lady in a plain skirt stared indifferently at the Tenth Hall Master. "Ant."

"T-this is impossible!" the Tenth Hall Master Roared and clenched both fists tightly. A terrifying fist intent rushed out of him, but it was immediately suppressed and annihilated.

The Tenth Hall Master resisted some more, but it was futile. Every single attack he attempted to make was immediately destroyed as soon as he performed it.

Soon, the Tenth Hall Master was in despair.

Master Yue and the others turned around and fled decisively.

As soon as they ran away, however, they realized something amiss and turned around to see that their bodies were kilometers away from them.

They were decapitated in the blink of an eye; they were Six Path Creation Realm experts, but they were killed in an instant.

Everyone present was silent.

Ci Tian and the others went numb, feeling both shock and fear—an indescribable fear.

Path Creation Realm cultivators were peak cultivators in their eyes, but the lady in a plain skirt killed them as if they were mere chickens!

The members of the Great Zhou felt delighted and helpless at the same time.

They had spent many years cultivating, and just as they thought that they had reached the peak of the cultivation world, the lady in a plain skirt had basically just told them that they were nothing but ants.

Everyone felt as if they were frogs in a slightly bigger well, and they realized that their meager strength was not going to matter before those who were truly powerful.

The majority of them fell in despair; Ye Guan fared slightly better, as he had long gotten used to the lady in a plain skirt's domineering display of strength.

"Haha..." The Tenth Hall Master suddenly laughed, but his laughter was no longer filled with unbridled arrogance; it sounded sorrowful.

The Tenth Hall Master never thought that he'd die one day and in mere seconds at that.

The Tenth Hall Master's heart of cultivation shattered just then. He looked at the lady in a plain skirt and was about to speak when the latter waved her sleeve.

Swoosh!

The Tenth Hall Master was reduced to ashes.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

The lady in a plain skirt turned to look at Ye Guan and said, "I'm not done killing yet."

With that, the lady in a plain skirt glanced at the experts of the Great Zhou.

They were immediately terrified.

Ye Guan hurriedly said, "Aunt, they're friends! They're on our side."

The lady in a plain skirt glanced indifferently at Ye Guan before opening her palm.

Boom!

Spacetime quivered as inscrutable streams of energy converged on the lady in a plain skirt's palm.

Everyone was puzzled. What was she trying to do here?

Ye Guan was also confused. What’s happening?

Under the puzzled gazes of the onlookers, the inscrutable streams of energy gathered in one spot, transforming into souls.

“Ah!” Ci Tian exclaimed, "S-s-she’s reviving the people of the Evil Dao Alliance! My goodness!"

The onlookers were both terrified and stupefied.

Ye Guan froze in disbelief as well. His aunt was actually reviving the people whom she had just slaughtered.

Under the terrified gazes of everyone, the Tenth Hall Master, Master Yue and others soon reappeared before them.

Rumble!

Before the lady in a plain skirt could do anything, an extremely terrifying aura burst out of the starry sky; the aura was so strong that the entire world became illusory beneath it, unable to withstand its power.

The pressure was so intense that everyone’s faces changed. The weaker cultivators collapsed to the ground, foaming at the mouth.

Even those in the Path Creation Realm found their knees bending slowly before it.

No one could resist, including Ye Guan.

Ye Guan felt as if countless mountains were pressing down on his shoulder, and even his Invincible Sword Intent was powerless against it.

Ye Guan couldn’t even muster the thought of resisting the terrifying aura. He felt like a mortal witnessing the collapse of the Heavens, and he had no choice but to accept his demise.

This was the suppression of the Great Dao, and Ye Guan had never experienced this before.

Ye Guan's closest encounter with the Great Dao was with the Clan Leader of the Past Clan. Her Dao was capable of transforming her words into reality, after all.

However, this Great Dao was different.

Who is this?

The pressure grew stronger as time ticked by. Eventually, an aged voice echoed from the depths of the vast expanse. "Who dares to defy the cycle of life and death, openly violating the existing Great Dao? Are you tired of living?"

The lady in a plain skirt looked up and waved her sleeve, sending the Path Sword flying into the depths of the vast expanse.

“Ah! The Path Sword!!” A terrified scream echoed. "The Great Destiny! L-let me kowtow to you!"

Bang, bang, bang!

Dull thuds echoed throughout the vast expanse, rendering everyone present speechless.

The lady in a plain skirt withdrew her gaze and opened her palm, allowing the Path Sword to return to her hand.

A storage ring had appeared in her hand as well, but no one noticed it.

By then, the Tenth Hall Master and the others were finally resurrected, and they revealed bewildered looks. What’s happening? Weren’t we dead? Am I dreaming?

The Tenth Hall Master stared at the lady in a plain skirt, and his face twisted in horror as he stammered, "Y-y-you...! What are you going to do?!"

The lady in a plain skirt's presence meant that they were not dreaming

The lady in a plain skirt remained expressionless as she said, "The killing wasn’t satisfying. I’ll do it again."

With that, she waved her sleeve gently.

Swoosh!

The heads of those from the Evil Dao Alliance flew high into the sky.

Everyone present was speechless.
