Chapter 802: Charge! Attack Him
Chapter 802: Charge! Attack Him
Everyone believed that Asura Jing just didn't want to save Xuan Ce. How can a sword not work?
The sword was already in his hand, and it was a sword that one just had to swing to use. How could it stop working?
The faces of the Xuan Clan members were extremely ugly, and some of them even revealed killing intent toward Asura Jing.
Xin Yu frowned but felt something amiss.
Asura Jing wouldn’t anger the crowd at a critical juncture. He wasn’t dumb enough to do that.
Asura Jing's face was gloomy. He didn’t respond to Ye Guan's question and simply stared at the Qingxuan Sword in his hand.
The next moment, he transformed into a streak of sword light, slashing at the blood corpse.
The blood corpse raised its hand and swung its fist, releasing a wave of blood-red light.
Boom!
Asura Jing was blown a thousand meters away.
After stopping, Asura Jing's face was grim. He stared at the Qingxuan Sword in his hand with bewilderment. “There's something wrong with this sword. It's not as strong as it's supposed to be...”
He then looked up at the crowd and exclaimed, “There really is something wrong with it!”
"Asura Jing!" Xuan Li roared, “Is it the sword that has a problem, or is it you? Huh?!”
The Xuan Clan members all glared at him.
Clearly, the Asura Clan didn’t want to save them.
Xin Yu pondered for a moment and then turned to look at Ye Guan beside her.
Ye Guan earnestly said, “There's nothing wrong with the sword.”
Indeed, the sword had no issues, but he had revoked Asura Jing's authority to use it.
Xin Yu walked up to Ye Guan's side and asked, “Tell me, are you the only one who can use that sword?”
Ye Guan’s heart skipped a beat. Damn! I think I underestimated her.
Since Ye Guan wasn't answering her, Xin Yu tugged at his sleeve and asked, “Am I right?”
Ye Guan earnestly replied, “Others can use it, too.”
Xin Yu thought for a moment before asking, “Does it require your authorization?”
Ye Guan was silent.
Xin Yu stared at Ye Guan, trying to find some clues from his expression, but Ye Guan’s face was very calm—too calm.
Xin Yu wanted to say something but stopped. Have I already forgotten how the Asura Clan and the Xuan Clan treated him?
If she asked Ye Guan for help now, she'd be stuck between a rock and a hard place.
Xin Yu glanced at the ashen-faced Asura Jing and the furious Xuan clan members, sighing inwardly. They had brought this upon themselves.
Asura Jing glared at Ye Guan just then, and his eyes seemed to be on fire as he roared, “There's something wrong with your sword!”
Ye Guan calmly asked, “What’s wrong with it?”
“You!”
Asura Jing glared at Ye Guan. His killing intent was so thick that it was palpable.
Ye Guan chuckled, “Clan Leader Jing, you really are something. You managed to shift all the blame onto me by saying that there's something wrong with the sword. If you really don’t want to save others, just say it. Why go through all this?”
Swoosh!
Asura Jing suddenly vanished into thin air.
A terrifying wave of energy swept toward Ye Guan.
“What nonsense is this?!" Taia Tian's exasperated scream echoed, and he dashed in front of Ye Guan, throwing a punch toward Asura Jing.
Boom!
A terrifying shockwave erupted, and the weak cultivators nearby were blasted away.
Asura Jing's eyes were gloomy as he stared at Taia Tian standing before Ye Guan. “Are you colluding with an outsider?”
Taia Tian chuckled, “Clan Leader Jing, don’t label me like that. Everyone here has eyes.”
Asura Jing looked around. Many people were looking at him with strange eyes, including the members of the Asura Clan.
Clearly, everyone believed that he didn’t want to save Xuan Ce.
Ye Guan glanced at the blood corpse in the distance. The blood corpse was being suppressed by the supreme elites of the Asura Civilization, but it was only a matter of time before the blood corpse shattered their encirclement.
Ye Guan earnestly said, “Clan Leader Jing, you have to save Clan Leader Xuan Ce now, or he's really going to die.”
Asura Jing gripped the Qingxuan Sword tightly, both angry and suspicious. There wasn't anything wrong with this sword earlier, so what happened to it? Why is it that it's become nothing but an ordinary sword? Ye Guan had definitely done something here!
With that thought in mind, Asura Jing stared at Ye Guan and was about to speak when Xuan Li suddenly said, “Clan Leader Jing, I know our clans fought over the divine artifacts, but didn’t we give you that divine sword? If you're still upset with us, I apologize on behalf of the Xuan Clan, but please help us for now. We will be eternally grateful for your help.”
Xuan Li bowed deeply to Asura Jing.
The remaining Xuan Clan members followed suit, bowing deeply toward Asura Jing.
All eyes were on Asura Jing.
Asura Jing turned to Ye Guan.
Ye Guan smiled and said, “Senior, if you think there's something wrong with the sword, then give it to me. I’ll use it.”
Asura Jing ignored Ye Guan, chuckled, and then opened his palm. The Qingxuan Sword flew to the Supreme Scholar.
Asura Jing said, “Supreme Scholar, use it, and you'll know that there’s something wrong with it."
He certainly wouldn’t give the sword to Ye Guan. He believed that if he did that, he wouldn't get the sword back.
However, the Supreme Scholar was different, as she was a reputable person. If she couldn’t use the sword, everyone would realize that something was wrong.
They'd all blame Ye Guan, and Asura Jing could then use that as justification to eliminate Ye Guan.
By then, even the Taia Clan couldn’t possibly protect Ye Guan.
Asura Jing had been waiting—waiting for everyone’s anger to reach a crescendo.
The angrier they were, the harsher they’d be on Ye Guan later.
After giving the sword to the Supreme Scholar, Asura Jing turned to Ye Guan.
Ye Guan’s face turned grim, eliciting a chuckle from him.
Ye Guan was clearly getting nervous.
The Supreme Scholar picked up the Qingxuan Sword. She glanced at Ye Guan and transformed into a streak of light. She raised the Qingxuan Sword up high and slashed out at the blood corpse.
The blood corpse sneered and swung its fist.
Boom!
The blood corpse was blasted away. When it came to a halt, everyone saw that its right arm had exploded into a bloody mist, and cracks had appeared all over it.
Everyone was stunned.
All eyes turned to the disbelieving Asura Jing...
Realizing what was happening, Asura Jing glared at Ye Guan and roared, "It's you! You can control that! Y-y-you little bastard! You've been playing games with me!"
Ye Guan glanced at Asura Jing and then at the Supreme Scholar. "Xin Yu, attack it again. It's a sword designed to suppress spirits..."
Xin Yu nodded slightly and vanished.
A mysterious force enveloped the blood corpse, causing its expression to change drastically. It tried to escape but was instantly engulfed by a surge of sword light.
Boom!
The blood corpse's spirit was gradually sealed, and Xuan Ce's previously suppressed spirit began to regain control.
At the sight, Ye Guan hurriedly shouted, "Xin Yu, give the sword to Clan Leader Xuan Ce! Do it, quick!"
Xin Yu hesitated, but she still hurled the sword toward Xuan Ce upon noticing Ye Guan's frantic expression.
Asura Jing's face changed drastically at the sight. "No, you can't give it to him!"
Asura Jing charged at Xuan Ce.
"What are you guys waiting for?!" Ye Guan shouted at the Xuan Clan members. "Stop him! Attack him!"
Xuan Li and the other Xuan Clan members moved quickly and charged at Asura Jing.
The Asura Clan members moved in as well to help their clan leader, and just like that, a full-blown fight erupted between the two clans.
The Supreme Scholar urgently shouted, "Stop!"
However, her words fell on deaf ears. The two sides had been consumed by their own rage.
Moreover, they had seen the Qingxuan Sword's capability with their own eyes. Just one strike was enough for even the Supreme Scholar to almost destroy the blood corpse.
It was a divine artifact among divine artifacts. Whoever was lucky enough to wield it would become unstoppable.
Pandemonium broke out in the blink of an eye.
Xin Yu watched in disappointment, and she truly felt that these two clans were beyond saving.
They were shortsighted and selfish. In the face of profit, neither clan considered the bigger picture, only their immediate gains.
Anyone could see that the sword's power depended entirely on Ye Guan...
Of course, she knew that the Xuan Clan and the Asura Clan were aware of that, but they still couldn't let go of the sword.
Xin Yu sighed softly.
Meanwhile, Taia Tian and Taia Nan felt conflicted at the sight.
They coveted the sword, too, but Taia Tian knew that the sword owner was more valuable to the Taia Clan than the sword itself.
Since the sword was already so powerful, what about its owner and creator?
Fighting over the sword instead of befriending its owner was like killing the hen for its eggs. It was a foolish decision through and through.
Taia Tian cast a complex gaze at Ye Guan.
The young swordsman truly understood human nature. He's so young, but he already knows about human nature. Who taught him that?
Boom!
A terrifying aura erupted just then, attracting everyone's attention.
Taia Tian and the others turned to see Xuan Ce holding the Qingxuan Sword with a fearsome aura around him.
With the Qingxuan Sword in hand, he suppressed the blood corpse's spirit.
Xuan Ce turned to look at Asura Jing, and his eyes were filled with killing intent.
Asura Jing's expression became extremely grave. Xuan Ce had become strong enough to threaten his life.
Asura Jing hurriedly looked at Ye Guan and exclaimed, "Revoke the authorization!"
"No," Ye Guan said blandly.
Asura Jing. "..."
