I Have A Sword-Chapter 532: Test of Endurance

Ye Guan was stunned upon hearing the voice. Has my backup arrived? Has the True Universe and the Guanxuan Universe shattered the blockade of the Time Reversers?

Ye Guan looked up and saw a myriad of supreme elites rushing toward them. The supreme elites all exuded inscrutable auras, which meant that they were incredibly powerful. However, Ye Guan recognized none of them; they were all new faces.

Elder Feng explained, "Young Master, they're from the Time Pavilion."

They're my mother's people? Ye Guan was stunned. Then, he felt touched as it turned out that his mother hadn't forgotten him at all!

The Clan Leader of the Hidden Clan frowned, and his expression soured when he saw the individual power of the group of supreme elites.

Then, he looked up at the Clan Leader of the Gui Clan, who was busy fighting Ye Qingqing, and said, "Clan Leader of the Gui Clan, you should open up spacetime rifts for the supreme elites of your clan."

The Clan Leader of the Gui Clan waved his right hand, and dozens of spacetime rifts manifested around him. Soon, more supreme elites of the Gui Clan rushed out of the spacetime rift. The Sovereign-level supreme elites charged decisively at Ye Guan the moment they saw the latter.

A cold, killing intent flashed in Ye Guan's eyes at the sight. He was about to make a move when the spacetime behind him was torn open. Nine Sovereigns clad in white armor rushed out of the spacetime rift and charged straight at the Sovereign-level supreme elites of the Gui Clan.

Ye Guan got ready to stroke, but a woman appeared next to him before he could do anything. The woman was wearing white armor with a spear in her hand. Her eyes were both cold and composed as she grabbed Ye Guan's arm and said, "Young Master, the Pavilion Master has said that you have to go to the Time River."

Ye Guan asked, "Where's my mother?"

The woman didn't answer. Instead, she turned around and thrust at the spacetime in front of Ye Guan. The resulting spacetime rift revealed the distant Time River.

Ye Guan raised his head to look at Ye Qingqing. "Aunt..."

"You go ahead first," Ye Qingqing said.

Ye Guan's face darkened. He was about to say something when the woman in white armor said, "Young Master, we have to leave now. A group of mysterious elites are headed this way."

The woman in white armor didn't even wait for Ye Guan's reply as she pulled him into the Time River. Ye Guan glanced behind him and saw that more and more Gui Clan supreme elites were flying out of the spacetime rifts.

Ye Qingqing would soon be in a disadvantageous position, but... Ye Guan fell silent and decided to follow his mother's arrangements.

Qin Guan definitely had a better grasp of the situation compared to him, and getting him to leave had to be a part of her plan. Ye Guan was worried about Ye Qingqing, but he believed that she wouldn't fall into any harm, as the target was him not her.

The two had just entered the Time River when they saw a black-robed old man standing a kilometer away from them. The black-robed old man stood at the helm of dozens of supreme elites with sabers in their hands.

The woman in white armor said, "They're from the Ancient Clan." freewebno vel.co m

"I thought the Clan Leader of the Ancient Clan was dead?"

"The clan leader is dead, but the old man there is the ancestor of the Ancient Clan, while the people behind him are the Sovereign-level supreme elites of the clan," the woman in white armor replied.

Ye Guan was about to say something when the black-robed old man's figure became illusory. Ye Guan's face changed drastically. He was about to make a move when an afterimage rushed past him and flew toward the black-robed old man.

Bam!

Two figures were blasted away—one was the black-robed old man and the other was moving so fast that Ye Guan could only see their afterimage.

The black-robed old man soon stabilized himself. He looked up and frowned upon seeing the attacker. "Sovereign Yu?!"

It had to be known that the Yu Clan was one of the Four Ancient Clans, and Sovereign Yu was the Clan Leader of the Yu Clan.

The black-robed old man glared at Sovereign Yu and said, "You actually chose to stand on the Guanxuan Universe's side?"

Sovereign Yu didn't respond. Instead, he turned to look at Ye Guan and said, "Young Lord Ye, please go ahead."

Ye Guan stared at Sovereign Yu without saying anything. Eventually, he turned and followed the woman in white armor into the distance.

The black-robed old man yelled, "Stop them!"

The Sovereign-level supreme elites of the Ancient Clan chased after Ye Guan and the woman in white armor. However, dozens of Sovereign-level supreme elites from the Yu Clan emerged and blocked the path.

Meanwhile, Ye Guan and the woman in white armor had already disappeared into the distant end of the Time River.

The black-robed old man's face turned grim. He glared at Sovereign Yu and asked, "Do you even know what you're doing?"

Sovereign Yu calmly replied, "Of course."

The black-robed old man stared quietly at Sovereign Yu, but he was bewildered deep inside. How come Sovereign Yu has brought his own clan members to help Ye Guan?! That's equivalent to going against the Past Clan! How come he dared to do such a thing?

"Let's exchange a few moves," Sovereign Yu said blandly before disappearing into a streak of light that flew toward the black-robed old man. The black-robed old man's face darkened. He knew that Sovereign Yu was here to stall him, but he had no choice but to fight the latter.

Soon, a fierce battle erupted, and the nearby spacetime seemed to boil beneath the combined powers of the two forces.

...

Ye Guan and the woman in white armor flew as fast as possible against the Time River's current. Ye Guan glanced at the woman next to him and was astonished to realize that the woman in white armor was extremely strong.

Then, he remembered that the woman in white armor had been leading the way for him all this while.

"Were they from the Yu Clan?"

"Yes," the woman in white armor said with a nod.

"Why did they help us?"

"They owe the Pavilion Master a favor, and they've chosen to repay that favor today."

Repaying a favor? Ye Guan wanted to ask more questions, but the woman in white armor abruptly stopped. She whipped around and hurled her spear.

Crackle!

A crisp noise echoed as the spacetime in the distance shattered, and a figure flew out. The woman in white armor opened her palm, and her spear returned to her hand.

The woman in white armor then looked around and coldly said, "Young Master, there are assassins lurking in the shadows. Be careful."

Assassins?

Ye Guan used his divine sense to scan the surroundings, but he couldn't feel anything strange.

Just then, Little Pagoda said, "There are many hidden auras nearby. Be careful."

The Ancestral Dragon Armor wrapped around Ye Guan, protecting him from any fatal ambushes. The woman in white armor dragged Ye Guan with her and flew into the distance when Ye Guan caught a cold glint in the periphery of his vision.

Ye Guan whipped around and slashed out with his sword.

Boom!

Spacetime was shattered, and a figure was sent flying away. The next moment, however, afterimages charged at Ye Guan from all sides! They appeared out of nowhere like ghosts, and there wasn't a sign of their presence until they appeared.

Ye Guan's expression changed in stupefaction. Such terrifying assassins!

Ye Guan dared not to be careless as his figure briefly became illusory. A kaleidoscope of sword lights erupted from within him, forcing the attackers away.

Unfortunately, Ye Guan was sent flying as well. Before he could come to a halt, a cold light flew toward him. To make matters worse, the attacker had calculated Ye Guan's flight path and was flying to greet him with attacks as soon as he stopped.

In addition, it turned out that there wasn't just one attacker. There was a group of them, and Ye Guan soon found himself engulfed by cold lights. Fortunately, the Ancestral Dragon Armor was too strong, and Ye Guan didn't perish from the ambush.

Nonetheless, Ye Guan's face still darkened. The Ancestral Dragon Armor had taken the brunt of the attack, suffering severe damage. In other words, Ye Guan's attackers were a terrifying group of extremely powerful assassins.

If it hadn't been for Ao Qianqian activating the Ancestral Dragon Armor earlier, Ye Guan would have died just now. These assassins were just too ruthless.

Swoosh!

The woman in white armor rushed to Ye Guan's side, and she heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing that the latter was fine. The assassins had made sure to stop her from lending any assistance to Ye Guan, so she didn't manage to help the latter.

Fortunately, Ye Guan was still alive.

"Watch out!" Ye Guan yelled and pulled the arm of the woman in white armor before flying away frantically. A myriad of afterimages charged at them, and the two were soon engulfed in cold lights.

Boom!

The cold lights vanished, sending Ye Guan and the woman in white armor flying away. Ye Guan's Ancestral Dragon Armor crumbled into innumerable light fragments, and it failed to absorb everything as Ye Guan's fleshly body was riddled with wounds.

Blood seeped out of Ye Guan's wounds as he retreated with the woman in white armor.

"Who are these assassins?" Ye Guan asked.

The woman in white armor's face was extremely grim as she said, "They're the Time Assassins that the Past Clan had nurtured a long time ago. The former Clan Leader of the Past Clan has nurtured them personally, so it's a given that they're strong.

"However, they're also masters in the art of concealment, and most supreme elites will find it hard to detect their presence."

Ye Guan was about to ask more questions when he felt a shiver down his spine. He pulled the woman in white armor behind him and roared. Then, he drew his sword and slashed out—Heavenrend!

A terrifying force burst out of Ye Guan and was channeled outside through Xuanyuan, transforming into a sword wave that struck the afterimages, reducing some of them into ashes upon contact.

Unfortunately, Ye Guan was once again engulfed by the cold lights.

The woman in white armor's face changed drastically, but before she could make any moves whatsoever, a colossal creature abruptly manifested in front of her. The creature was none other than a dragon!

Ao Qianqian had chosen to transform into her true form to protect Ye Guan with her fleshly body at the critical juncture.

The woman in white armor heaved a sigh of relief at the sight.

Moments later, Ao Qianqian transformed into a ray of golden light that melted into Ye Guan's glabella.

Ye Guan hurriedly asked, "Are you okay?"

Ao Qianqian, "I'm fine; just be careful."

Ye Guan looked around, but he couldn't see anything at all. (f)reenovelkiss

The Time Assassins were truly a terrifying bunch. Ye Guan couldn't feel their presence at all.

Just then, the woman in white armor walked up next to Ye Guan. "Our people are here, Young Master."

Ye Guan was puzzled.

However, his question was soon answered when dozens of figures clad in dark armor emerged from a spacetime rift. The figures in dark armor held spears in their left hand and shields in their right hand. They rushed up to Ye Guan and created a circle formation with the former in the middle.

The leader of the figures in dark armor said, "The Secret Guards are late. Please forgive us, Young Master."

Secret Guards?

Ye Guan cast a doubtful gaze at the woman in white armor.

The woman in white armor explained, "The Time Pavilion has three armed forces. I'm part of the Guanxuan Guards, while they're part of the Secret Guards."

Ye Guan asked, "What about the third one?"

"Only the Pavilion Master knows them," said the woman in white armor, shaking her head. Then, she stared into the distance and said, "Young Master, the Pavilion Master is waiting for you up ahead. We have to go now."

With that, the two escaped under the escort of the Secret Guards.

During their journey, the assassins ambushed them multiple times, but they were all thwarted by the Secret Guards. Unfortunately, there were always some casualties among the Secret Guards with each ambush.

Half an hour later, Ye Guan sensed something and stopped in his tracks. His expression was grim as he stared at the distant end of the Time River. Ye Guan could feel a formidable aura reminiscent of a towering mountain in the distance.

The woman in white armor's expression turned grim as well, but she recovered her composure upon receiving a message. Then, she turned to Ye Guan and explained, "Young Master, rest assured. Our people are coming."

Ye Guan fell silent, feeling worried. The situation's becoming more and more like a test of endurance. Can Mother... pass this test?
