Chapter 543: So What If They Intervene?

Ye Guan's expression darkened upon seeing the white-robed woman. Damn it, she really showed up!

The white-robed woman looked at Ye Guan and exclaimed, "Draw your sword!"

Ye Guan remained silent, realizing that he might have gone too far with his attempt to show off.

The white-robed woman stared deeply at Ye Guan and asked, "Didn't you tell me to come out and face your sword?"

The crowd watched intently, expecting a direct confrontation. Just then, Ye Guan transformed into a streak of sword light, charging toward the white-robed woman with the power of his three bloodlines.

His aura was still surging crazily, reaching an unprecedented level.

Although he knew that he couldn't win, Ye Guan still wanted to give it a try.

The best way to face fear was to confront it directly, after all.

As Ye Guan's sword reached the white-robed woman, she calmly extended two fingers and pinched lightly.

Boom!

Ye Guan's sword came to an abrupt halt between the white-robed woman's fingers.

The white-robed woman stared at Ye Guan and was about to speak, but the latter beat her to the chase, saying, "Impressive, I concede defeat."

A decisive surrender!

The white-robed woman stared deeply at Ye Guan without releasing Xuanyuan.

All eyes were on the two.

Eventually, the white-robed woman released her grip on Xuanyuan and said, "The True God said that you're going to become invincible in a hundred years. We'll wait and see."

With that, the white-robed woman turned around and left.

Ye Guan cried out, "Wait!"

The white-robed woman turned to look at Ye Guan.

"Can we negotiate?” asked Ye Guan.

"No."

Ye Guan furrowed his brows. The white-robed woman stared at him and explained, "Forgive my frankness, but you are not qualified to even talk to me. You don't have the ability to do anything by yourself."

"Understandable," said Ye Guan with a nod. Negotiation demanded that both parties be of equal strength; Ye Guan was obviously too weak, so there was no way they could negotiate.

The white-robed woman suddenly asked, "Do you know what you're doing?"

Ye Guan looked at the white-robed woman, puzzled.

The white-robed woman stared at Ye Guan with calm eyes and explained, "You've always been in a passive state since you learned of your true identity. You've never had a say in things, including inheriting your family business, the Guanxuan Universe, protecting the entire vast expanse, and even when it came to confronting the Universe Tribulation.

"As far as I know, you've never had a say in any of those. Are you doing all those because you genuinely want to do them, or are you doing them out of obligation?"

Ye Guan went silent. He had pondered that question before. Do I truly want to protect the entire vast expanse?

The weight of the responsibility on his shoulders had been his driving force so far.

The white-robed woman asked, "Have you ever thought of it?"

Ye Guan nodded, "I have."

The white-robed woman looked at Ye Guan, waiting for him to continue.

Ye Guan chuckled and said, "I want to become invincible."

"Why?"

Ye Guan pondered briefly before replying, "The majority of my family members are invincible. It's going to feel weird if I'm not invincible as well."

The crowd was left in disbelief.

The white-robed woman merely looked at Ye Guan.

Ye Guan laughed once again and added, "That wasn't the first time that I said I wanted to become invincible, but at the time, I was just boasting.

"However, my recent battles and travels to many different places made me realize that I have to become invincible, or I'd end up as a speck of forgettable dust in the vast expanse of time.

"Moreover, I'm too weak—too weak to protect the things and the people I want to protect."

Ye Guan was not alone anymore. He had many friends and people he treasured.

The responsibility on his shoulders was heavy, but it gave his life meaning. A cultivator without invincibility was like a man in the mundane world without money, and those without money would find it hard to live anywhere.

Since he had already embarked on the path of cultivation, why wouldn't he set invincibility as his goal?

The white-robed woman stared at Ye Guan for a while before saying, "You have turned the responsibilities on your shoulders into your driving force and motivation. That is commendable, indeed."

With that, the white-robed woman turned around and left. Ye Guan stared quietly at the white-robed woman's back, feeling an unprecedented sense of powerlessness.

He couldn't do anything at all in their exchange just now. He wanted to negotiate with her, but the harsh reality told him that he wasn't qualified to do so.

Of course, he wasn't seeking peace, but he wanted to discuss the issue of the vast expanse's order.

Ye Guan felt that the white-robed woman wasn't selfish. If he could change her perspective, it would be a win-win situation for both of them. Unfortunately, the reality was indeed cruel.

Oftentimes, the weight of a person's words would depend on their strength. One needed strength to make everyone pay attention to one's words. However, those with strength... were like wealthy people in the secular world. Everything they say would be wise in everyone's ears, and people would consider their words to be the absolute truth; they'd receive endless praise as well.

Strength! It all came down to strength. A weak country had no diplomacy, and a weak person had no say. Someone weak could only fight.

Ye Guan smiled and looked up at the supreme elites in the distance.

"Come here! Let's keep fighting!" he shouted.

However, the Time Reversers dared not step forward.

None of them could match Ye Guan, who had three unique bloodlines and was armed to the teeth with divine artifacts.

Swoosh!

A woman stepped up just then, and she was wearing a tight-fitting skirt. Her face was without any makeup, but her beauty was unparalleled. Her green hair flowed loosely behind her, and a black ribbon tied her hair into a bundle.

Elegant—this was the most apropos word to describe her.

A sheathed longsword was in the woman's left hand, which meant that she was a swordsman.

Ye Guan observed her silently, not uttering a word.

Swoosh!

Ye Guan vanished just then.

Meanwhile, the woman took a step forward and skilfully dodged Ye Guan's fearsome strike, barely escaping its lethal path. Then, she lightly flicked with her thumb, and her sword gracefully soared out, slashing toward Ye Guan's chest.

Ye Guan raised his left hand and used his shield to deflect the attack.

Bang!

Ye Guan was forced to retreat to his initial position. He looked down at his left hand and saw that his skin had cracked from the powerful attack.

Ye Guan glanced at the woman. Their eyes met, and Ye Guan saw that her gaze was clear, calm, and undisturbed.

Ye Guan's expression became solemn as he called out, "Qianqian!"

Ao Qianqian reluctantly removed herself from Ye Guan.

Putting aside the shield in his left hand, Ye Guan got ready for a one-on-one confrontation without relying on external tools.

The three unique bloodlines coursing through him had long gone berserk, but he couldn't cast them aside because they were his own bloodline. However, he truly had no other choice but to unleash them, as he could no longer suppress them.

The woman made no move, simply observing Ye Guan as if she was waiting for him to take the initiative.

Swoosh!

Ye Guan vanished into thin air.

Sword light flashed, and a sword swiftly reached the woman. It carried with it the speed and power of a lightning bolt. The nearby spacetime couldn't bear the impact, fracturing into a spider-web pattern.

When Ye Guan's sword neared the woman, she closed her eyes calmy.

The next moment, she flicked the hilt of her sword with her thumb, and her sword elegantly took to the sky.

Hum!

A resonant sword hum echoed as the sword slashed toward Ye Guan.

Ye Guan defended himself, but he was sent flying back to his original position. When he came to a stop, the woman was already in front of him with the same sword from earlier.

Without any hesitation, the woman slashed out.

Ye Guan's eyes narrowed, and he swiftly unsheathed his sword—Heavenrend!

A terrifying force erupted from Xuanyuan as Ye Guan unsheathed it. Space collapsed as the tip of the woman and Ye Guan's sword collided with each other in mid-air.

Bzzzt!

The two swords vibrated, and the powerful vibrations sent the two flying backward at the same time. While in mid-air, the woman pointed a finger at the sword in her hand, and it transformed into a streak of sword light that rushed at Ye Guan's face.

Ye Guan raised his hand and slashed horizontally.

Bang!

A violent tremor ran across Xuanyuan, and Ye Guan was forced back.

The next moment, the woman leaped forward with a long sword in hand. Her figure suddenly became illusory before scattering into countless illusory figures of the woman, which easily exceeded ten thousand figures at first glance!

Ye Guan's pupils constricted. The illusory figures weren't illusory—they were real!

How did she do that? Ye Guan was shocked, but he dared not be careless. His figure became illusory as well, and a kaleidoscope of sword lights erupted from him.

Space Overlap!

The two had decided to attack each other with their most powerful sword techniques!

The nearby supreme elites retreated hastily, distancing themselves from the battlefield upon sensing the imminent danger.

Soon, the kaleidoscope of sword lights converged at one point.

BOOM!

A cataclysmic explosion of sword lights reminiscent of a volcanic eruption pervaded the starry skies, shattering every inch of spacetime in its way.

Two figures retreated rapidly amidst the dazzling afterglow, and they had to retreat for tens of thousands of meters away before finally coming to a halt.

Somewhere in the shadows, the Clan Leader of the Past Clan stared at the distant figures in silence. A thin elderly man was standing next to her while staring at the two figures from afar.

"Third Miss’ swordsmanship has improved significantly," said the thin elderly man.

It turned out that Ye Guan's opponent at the moment was a disciple of the Past Clan’s Clan Leader.

The white-robed woman gazed into the distance with calm eyes. "What about Ye Guan?"

"His swordsmanship is extremely powerful as well," replied the thin elderly man after a brief hesitation. Then, he turned to the white-robed woman and asked, "What do you think of him, Clan Leader?"

The white-robed woman calmly remarked, "Those who achieve great deeds, be it in ancient or modern times, have all relied on their character, talent, and luck. He has all of those, but he has something extra as well—his family background."

The thin elderly man hesitated before asking, "Luck?"

The white-robed woman glanced at the thin elderly man. "Do you not believe in fate?"

"Well..." the thin elderly man muttered, "We cultivators are fighting the heavens..."

The white-robed woman shook her head and said, "What you call fighting against the heavens is within the Dao. Cultivators within the Dao are like ants."

The thin elderly man fell into contemplation.

Glancing at Ye Guan in the distance, the white-robed woman turned around and left, but her words echoed loudly in the air. "From now on, Han Ling will have full authority over everything here; she'll handle everything."

The white-robed woman had no interest in playing with Ye Guan.

The younger generation would fight the next battles.

The thin elderly man said, "If the swords behind him are unleashed..."

Everyone already knew of Ye Guan's powerful backers. In fact, everyone was mocking him, saying that he was the King of Relying on Others.

The white-robed woman sounded nonchalant as she asked, "So what if they intervene? What is there to fear?"

What if they intervene... The thin elderly man cast a respectful glance at the white-robed woman and bowed slightly.

The white-robed woman gazed at Ye Guan and the woman in the distance. Her eyes remained tranquil, devoid of any ripples as she said, "Since you wish to play, then play to your heart's content."
