I Have A Sword

Chapter 887: Abi Hell



Chapter 887: Abi Hell

Not worthy? What do you mean? Dao Jun was puzzled.

The old Daoist shifted his gaze, looking toward the distant silhouette of Hengshan Ying. "Who should I fight?"

Hengshan Ying pointed at the Eighth Hall Master in the distance.

The old Daoist glanced at the Eighth Hall Master, who was staring at Hengshan Ying.

The Eighth Hall Master chuckled and remarked, "Li Hentian... I never imagined I’d meet someone from that legendary place today."

"The Evil Dao Alliance,” muttered the old Daoist with a frown.

The Eighth Hall Master stared at the old Daoist. "That's right."

The old Daoist turned to look back at Hengshan Ying, "The Hengshan Clan isn’t what it used to be. Are you sure you want to provoke them for your clan’s sake?"

Hengshan Ying glanced at Ye Guan, who was standing next to her, and nodded firmly.

The old Daoist glanced at Ye Guan and remarked, "Young lady, your instincts are sharp, and you are courageous. If the elders of your clan aren't blind or foolish, your Hengshan Clan might just have a chance to rise again."

Hengshan Ying gave a faint smile but said nothing.

The old Daoist then turned back to the Eighth Hall Master. Without a word, he raised his right hand and brought it down forcefully. The next moment, a large "Dao" character appeared above the Eighth Hall Master’s head.

Boom!

The Eighth Hall Master's pupils contracted, and the space around him exploded.

A mysterious force pinned him to the ground as well.

"Wait!" Ye Guan shouted, "Let me finish him!"

With that, he transformed into a streak of sword light and charged at the Eighth Hall Master.

The old Daoist was taken aback. The Eighth Hall Master's eyes narrowed in the face of Ye Guan's charge. Then, he roared like a wild beast, and an illusory beast manifested behind him.

Boom!

The beast's appearance sent a terrifying shockwave sweeping across the battlefield, and the shockwave was so powerful that the Dao Imprint above the Eighth Hall Master trembled.

The Great Dao's inscrutable laws also shattered as the shockwave swept across them.

The Eighth Hall Master raised his arms to defend himself.

Bang!

The Qingxuan Sword was stopped dead in its tracks, but it lasted only for a second. The Qingxuan Sword pierced the Eighth Hall Master's arm. At the same time, the Eighth Hall Master punched Ye Guan fiercely with his other hand.

Bang!

A radiant sword light erupted, and Ye Guan was blasted hundreds of meters away.

Just then, Ye Guan sensed something and looked up to see the illusory beast pouncing on him. The sudden attack caused Ye Guan's hair to stand on end. What on earth is that thing?

A streak of Dao light flitted across Ye Guan.

Bang!

The Dao light blocked the illusory beast. The illusory beast shuddered and retreated to the Eighth Hall Master’s side. The Eighth Hall Master glared at the old Daoist and growled, shouting, "Are you really going to get involved in this?!"

The old Daoist stared at the illusory beast and said, "Abi Hell."

The illusory beast sneered, "Old Daoist, we have always been on good terms. Why get involved in something that doesn't concern you?"

The old Daoist glanced at Ye Guan and replied, "Then why are you picking a fight with him?"

The illusory beast looked at Ye Guan and growled, "What? Why can't we pick a fight with him?"

The old Daoist was about to respond when the inscrutable energy of the existing Great Dao grew stronger, making the old Daoist frown deeply.

"Hahaha!" The illusory beast laughed and remarked, "Old Daoist, your presence here is testing the existing Great Dao’s tolerance. If you don’t leave soon, he might leave the Ascension World and intervene personally. It might be too late for you to escape by then."

The old Daoist ignored the illusory beast and looked at Hengshan Ying. "You have good instincts. This young man is worth investing in; he carries an unknown fate that even I can't fully comprehend. Let me reveal some secrets to youthere is a peerless expert backing this young man. I don’t know how strong they are, but they are definitely very, very powerful."

The old Daoist paused before continuing, "However, the Evil Dao Alliance is also strong. Its roots run deep. If you choose to help this young man, he can bear the brunt of the consequences of that, but you might not be able to withstand it. Of course, if you can endure, your Hengshan Clan will profit greatly in the future. In short, the rewards are immense, but so are the risks. Think carefully about your next steps."

Hengshan Ying glanced at Ye Guan in the distance and asked, "Senior, does my Hengshan Clan have any chance of returning to its former glory as a Tier Five civilization even without anyone's help?"

"Nope," The old Daoist shook his head. "It's absolutely impossible."

Hengshan Ying fell silent.

The old Daoist sighed, "I owed your clan's ancestor a favor long ago, which is why I’m sharing this with you. To be honest, I hope you'll keep supporting him, but I know that your position in the Hengshan Clan is too low. Moreover, the elders of your clan have lost their fighting spirit long ago. They only wish to live peacefully, so they will certainly not support you. If you continue on this path, you'll find yourself in a difficult position in the Hengshan Clan."

Hengshan Ying remained quiet. The reason she had come to support Ye Guan was that he had the sacred character of the Shui Clan.

The Shui Clan and the Hengshan Clan were both part of the Nine Clans of Zhaowu, both of which were once Tier Five Civilizations. Like the Shui Clan, the Hengshan Clan was also destroyed by the Tianxing Civilization.

Ye Guan had the sacred character of the Shui Clan, which meant that the Shui Clan was supporting him. Thus, she decided to support Ye Guan as well. However, she hadn’t anticipated that the Evil Dao Alliance would be so strong.

At their peak, the Hengshan Clan wasn't afraid of the Evil Dao Alliance, but their civilization had declined significantly, which meant that they couldn't afford to fight the Evil Dao Alliance.

Should I take a gamble? Hengshan Ying looked at Ye Guan with a complex expression.

The old Daoist added, "If you don’t want to gamble, I can take you away from here right now, far from this conflict. If you want to take the risk, I can lend you a hand."

Hengshan Ying pondered over it for a while before smiling. "Please lend me a helping hand, senior."

Gamble! Why not? The Shui Clan was daring enough to gamble, so why would the Hengshan Clan cower in the face of the same risks?

Moreover, Hengshan Ying's intuition was telling her that this was a golden opportunity for the Hengshan Clan.

"Hahaha." The old Daoist laughed. "You have courage."

As he spoke, he opened his palm, and the jade pendant that originally belonged to Ye Guan flew into Hengshan Ying's hand. "Would you like to be my disciple?"

Hengshan Ying was totally taken aback. The old Daoist had indeed received a favor from the Hengshan Clan, but it was all in the distant past. That was still when the Hengshan Clan was at its peak. Today, the Hengshan Clan was merely a husk of its former self, and the clan was insignificant in front of an old god like Li Hentian.

Back then, the Hengshan Clan wanted some of their youngsters to become the old Daoist's disciple for the sake of deepening their ties, but the latter refused, which was why Hengshan Ying was surprised by the old Daoist's offer.

"I know you're surprised," the old Daoist said, "There are two reasons why I want to take you as a disciple. First of all, you have great courage and are different from your clansmen. Secondly, it’s because of Young Master Ye. The fate surrounding him is immense. I was not joking when I said that I was not worthy of becoming his master. However, I still want to establish a good relationship with him, so I came up with this compromise."

Hengshan Ying immediately accepted the jade pendant and respectfully bowed. "Master."

"If anyone in your Hengshan Clan dare to cause you trouble for what you've done today, then show them that jade pendant. I'll come to your aid, too."

Hengshan Ying bowed deeply. "Thank you, Master."

The old Daoist turned to the illusory beast.

The illusory beast glowered, "It seems that you are determined to get involved in this messy affair."

"It's nothing like that. I just want to spar with you," said the old Daoist. He then waved his sleeve, and a beam of light descended upon the illusory beast.

"All right, let's do this, then!" roared the illusory beast. Then, it transformed into a streak of black light that shot into the sky.

The old Daoist also turned into a streak of light, disappearing from sight. He tore through spacetime and grabbed the illusory beast, taking it with him somewhere far away.

He had no choice; the power of the existing Great Dao was growing stronger. If he stayed any longer, someone else from the Ascension World could come and intervene.

When the old Daoist and the illusory beast could no longer be seen, Ye Guan turned to the Eighth Hall Master.

The Eighth Hall Master's face darkened. His strength far surpassed that of a typical Path Creation Realm cultivator, but it was largely due to the illusory beast.

However, the old Daoist had just kidnapped his illusory beast, greatly weakening the Eighth Hall Master. To make matters worse, the Evil Dao Hall cultivators that he had brought along had already been slain, except for the middle-aged man who arrived later. The middle-aged man was pretty strong, and he could fight several opponents at once, but he was in a bad situation. He was completely passive and could only defend himself.

Ye Guan turned to Hengshan Ying nearby and said, "Thank you."

He knew that if she hadn't summoned the old Daoist, no one would have been able to deal with the illusory beast.

The illusory beast had been hiding within the Eighth Hall Master, likely waiting to deliver a fatal blow.

Hengshan Ying smiled. "No need to be so formal."

Ye Guan nodded, and then he turned to the Eighth Hall Master. Without a word, he transformed into a streak of sword light and vanished from where he stood.

A ferocious glint flashed in the Eighth Hall Master's eyes. He stomped with his right foot and disappeared as well.

Boom!

A thunderous boom echoed as the two exchanged moves in the blink of an eye.

Ye Guan retreated a few hundred meters before stopping. He looked up at the distant the Eighth Hall Master. The Eighth Hall Master’s strength had decreased by at least fifty percent, and it was all thanks to the missing illusory beast.

Just then, the Eighth Hall Master laughed. "Hahahaha! Ye Guan, my reinforcements have arrived!"

Rumble!

The Eighth Hall Master's words had just fallen when the spacetime above them split open.

The next moment, a jet-black shockwave swept across everything, along with twenty terrifying presences.

A middle-aged man dressed in a jet-black robe stood at the helm of the group, and he had long hair that draped over his shoulders.

There was a long spear in his hands, and the starry skies seemed to become illusory as soon as he appeared.

He was none other than the Seventh Hall Master.

Everyone present, including the Heavenly Ruler Demon, became nervous. The middle-aged man's aura was far more terrifying than the Eighth Hall Master.

All of a sudden, Ye Guan's face turned pale in alarm. Then, he ordered, "Everyone, get into the tiny pagoda!"

Everyone froze at his words, but they reacted quickly and entered the tiny pagoda.

Ye Guan rushed to Hengshan Ying. She was just about to protest when Ye Guan placed her into the tiny pagoda. Then, he turned around and fled.

The Eighth Hall Master sneered, "Now you're retreating? Isn’t it a bit too late?"

The Eighth Hall Master took a step forward, creating a spacetime rift. He wasted no time and jumped into it to chase after Ye Guan.

In the distance, Ye Guan sensed something and turned around. Then, he raised his sword to defend himself.

Bang!

Ye Guan was blasted back thousands of meters in the blink of an eye. As soon as he stopped, he turned around and continued fleeing while coughing up blood.

At the sight, the Eighth Hall Master immediately shouted, "Chase him!"

With that, he chased after Ye Guan as well. The Seventh Hall Master looked around before disappearing with his men.

Little Pagoda suddenly asked, "Why aren’t you using the Qingxuan Sword to escape?"

Ye Guan remained silent.

Little Pagoda asked, "Are you setting up a trap?"
