I Have A Sword

Chapter 1064: Giving Back the Sword

Ye Guan and Fu Wu's expressions changed drastically at the sight.

Ye Guan stared at Ah Fu intently, and upon confirming that the other had truly been revived, he was beyond stupefied. He's really alive. How is this possible? Can he actually bring others back to life?

Fu Wu's delicate brows furrowed deeply as well, and a trace of disbelief flickered in her eyes.

Meanwhile, the experts nearby were now looking at the Multiverse Emperor as if they were staring at an omnipotent god; their eyes brimmed with unmasked fanaticism and reverence.

Even Ruler Qi and Yama Dharmaraja exchanged a glance filled with shock and relief.

They were glad that they had made the right choice.

The Multiverse Emperor was invincible.

Thankfully, they hadn't chosen to oppose him, or their outcome would have been bleak.

Ruler Qi glanced at Ye Guan in the distance, her expression complicated. She held some goodwill toward Ye Guan, but he had chosen a path leading to death.

Sigh... Ruler Qi sighed deeply in her heart, feeling a brief sense of pity before it faded. In her eyes, her survival and the Dao took precedence before anything else.

Unbeknownst to them, there were two figures observing the scene in the shadows; they were none other than the Great Daoist Brush Master and the Boundless Master. They had arrived a while ago but had stayed hidden, merely watching.

The Boundless Master glanced at the Multiverse Emperor and chuckled. "This person has some methods."

The Great Daoist Brush Master smiled but said nothing.

The Boundless Master then looked at Ye Guan and Fu Wu, who were not far away. "If he doesn't call for reinforcements, things might go poorly for him today."

The Great Daoist Brush Master looked at Ye Guan, and his gaze carried a hint of inscrutable meaning.

The Boundless Master suddenly asked, "How is he doing it?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master refocused on the resurrected Ah Fu. "Time Reversal, Spacetime reversal—this Ah Fu is a version of himself from fifteen minutes ago. The Multiverse Emperor has forcibly reversed time and space using his supreme abilities.

"Simply put, that Ah Fu is from fifteen minutes ago. Time Reversal alone is actually not that difficult. However, to reverse spacetime and perfectly blend the past and present without conflict... now that is interesting."

The Boundless Master turned to the Great Daoist Brush Master. "Could you do it?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master quickly shook his head. "No, no, I'm just a useless wretch, terribly weak; I'm not worth mentioning at all."

The Boundless MasteRwas speechless.

Upon getting revived, Ah Fu looked around, momentarily confused. Didn't I die? How am I alive again?

Realizing something, he quickly looked toward the Multiverse Emperor and respectfully bowed, saying excitedly, "Master..." Nôv(el)B\\jnn

At that moment, he understood why he was revived.

The Multiverse Emperor smiled. "Step aside."

Ah Fu quickly stepped back to stand respectfully at a distance, his excitement barely contained.

The Multiverse Emperor looked toward Fu Wu in the distance, scrutinizing the Qingxuan Sword in her hand. He chuckled. "The sword indeed has some merit, and your Sword Dao is also impressive. That powerful sword intent is top tier even in a Tier Six civilization. But, to me, it's still far from enough."

Fu Wu stared at him, saying nothing.

The Multiverse Emperor smiled. "Though I am not a swordsman, I do admire them. So, I offer you three paths: first, submit to me, and I can help you advance further in your Sword Dao. Second, you can choose to leave. Third, die here. You choose."

At this moment, Ye Guan suddenly spoke. "Sister Fu."

Fu Wu turned to look at Ye Guan. Ye Guan smiled. "I didn't expect things to reach this point. I'm truly sorry. You should leave."

The reason he'd brought Fu Wu here was because he believed that together with the Devourer Civilization and the Guizhe Civilization, he had a chance against the Multiverse Emperor. However, he hadn't expected that the ancestral founders of both civilizations would turn out to be disciples of this Emperor.

And, of course, he hadn't anticipated the sheer strength of this Emperor, which had far exceeded his expectations.

But he accepted it; after all, life can't always go as planned—there are always unforeseen events.

Fu Wu looked at Ye Guan. "Do you still have any hawthorn candies?"

Ye Guan nodded. "Yes."

Fu Wu extended her left hand.

Ye Guan looked at her for a moment, then took out a string of prepared hawthorn candies and placed it in her hand.

Fu Wu placed one of them in her mouth. Then, she bit down gently and picked up her sword before walking slowly toward the Multiverse Emperor.

Ye Guan suddenly called out again. "Sister Fu."

Fu Wu stopped but did not turn around.

Ye Guan said seriously, "There's no need. You don't owe me anything."

Fu Wu turned to look at him and smiled. "I owe you two lives."

With that, she turned and continued toward the Multiverse Emperor.

Ye Guan wanted to say something, but Fu Wu suddenly vanished from her spot.

Rumble!

A terrifying sword intent swept across the battlefield.

A sword appeared above the Multiverse Emperor, and it slashed down.

Facing Fu Wu's sword, the Multiverse Emperor's expression didn't change at all. He raised his hand and waved lightly.

Bang!

The sword light shattered instantly, and Fu Wu was pushed back tens of thousands of meters. Just as she stopped, blood trickled from the corner of her mouth.

Seeing this, the powerful figures from various civilizations collectively sighed in relief.

If even the Multiverse Emperor couldn't defeat this woman, they would truly be doomed.

Ruler Qi and Yama Dharmaraja both relaxed. They had feared that the Multiverse Emperor's strength was exaggerated, but now it seemed he was indeed as powerful as claimed.

In the distance, Fu Wu wiped the blood from her lips, then suddenly disappeared from where she stood.

A radiant sword light erupted!

In the distance, the Multiverse Emperor extended his right hand once more, pressing down lightly.

Boom!

The sword light disintegrated instantly.

In a flash, Fu Wu was forced back again, this time by nearly twenty thousand meters. Just as she halted, blood welled up from her mouth once again.

Seeing this, Ye Guan's face changed drastically. He was just about to stop her when Fu Wu once again disappeared.

Buzz!

A sword cry echoed through the sky, followed by a sword light that appeared above Multiverse Emperor, slashing down fiercely.

This sword was far more powerful in both momentum and intent than the previous two. Yet, the Multiverse Emperor still waved his hand lightly.

Bang!

The sword light shattered instantly, and Fu Wu was thrown back again. This time, she retreated nearly thirty thousand meters, and as she stopped, the space behind her collapsed.

Blood trickled from her mouth, stark against her face.

Fixing her gaze on the Multiverse Emperor, Fu Wu said nothing. Her fleshly body suddenly ignited.

Boom!

Her aura surged.

Ye Guan cried out in alarm, "Sister Fu..."

Fu Wu closed her eyes slowly. "I owe you...and I owe the Tianxing Civilization..."

As she spoke, she transformed into a beam of sword light, charging forward.

In the distance, the Multiverse Emperor's expression remained calm. He extended his right hand again and lightly pressed forward.

Boom!

The sword light shattered instantly. The overwhelming force struck Fu Wu, who was now burning her body, sending her flying back once again.

Complete suppression!

Witnessing this, the powerful beings from various civilizations erupted into cheers.

Ruler Qi looked at Ye Guan and the retreating Fu Wu, her eyes flickering with complex emotions. Often, choices are crucial.

No matter how talented or hardworking you are, if you make the wrong choice at a critical moment, everything becomes meaningless.

Yama Dharmaraja, too, felt a mix of emotions, though primarily relief. The strength of the Multiverse Emperor had far exceeded his expectations, and even now, he couldn't discern the Multiverse Emperor's upper limits.

This was a power beyond the scope of Tier Six civilizations.

He was a true top-tier expert.

Fu Wu steadied herself and held her sword vertically in front of her glabella.

The next moment—

Boom!

Her soul erupted into flames as well, and her aura skyrocketed once more.

She fixed her gaze on the distant Multiverse Emperor, her eyes free of any hint of fear. In the next moment, she transformed into a beam of sword light and disappeared.

The sword light flashed. Many of those present barely saw it before it reached the Multiverse Emperor.

However, the terrifying sword was stopped between two of the Multiverse Emperor's fingers.

The battlefield fell deathly still.

The Multiverse Emperor looked at the burning Fu Wu and smiled. "I told you, it's still not enough."

With that, he exerted a bit of pressure with his fingers.

Boom!

Fu Wu, along with her sword, was thrown tens of thousands of meters back. Just as she stopped, her figure began to become blurry.

Multiverse Emperor looked at his fingers, where there was a shallow sword scratch. He chuckled, then looked at Fu Wu. "It is indeed a fine sword."

Fu Wu looked at the Qingxuan Sword in front of her and smiled faintly. "You're very strong. I've seen the strongest swords, but sadly, you are neither my sword nor my Dao. But you've shown me a stronger Sword Dao, so thank you..."

With that, she let go of the Qingxuan Sword. The sword trembled slightly and returned to Ye Guan.

Everyone was confused by Fu Wu's intentions.

Boom!

At that moment, a terrifying sword intent erupted from within Fu Wu, shooting up into the sky. The immense sword intent spread out across the heavens like tidal waves, suffocating everyone under its weight like towering mountains.

A breakthrough!

Seeing this, the hidden Great Daoist Brush Master's eyes flashed with admiration. "Holding one of the world's most supreme swords, yet still able to retain her core spirit. She is also able to let it go without being enchanted by its power...good, very good."

The core spirit of Sword Dao!

For a swordsman, the core spirit is of utmost importance.

In the distance, the Multiverse Emperor also laughed. "Not bad at all, to not be swayed by external power. Such a swordsman like you would be insulted if I simply made you submit. No, I want to kill you in another way, to show you what true despair is."

As he spoke, he suddenly extended his right hand, and instantly, the entire space around him started to blur. At the same time, not far from him, the air formed a strange temporal vortex, as all energies in the world began to warp eerily.

Witnessing this, everyone present was bewildered.

The Multiverse Emperor then looked at Ah Fu nearby and smiled. "Go and kill her."

Ah Fu bowed to the Multiverse Emperor and stepped into the strange temporal vortex.

Ye Guan was filled with confusion. What is that?

At this moment, the Great Daoist Brush Master and the Boundless Master appeared beside him.

The Great Daoist Brush Master looked solemnly at the black vortex in the distance and said, "He's reversing time and space. That man has already gone to the past to kill Fu Wu before she grows strong. Go and save her. I'll hold off this one for you."

Returning to the past to kill Fu Wu? Ye Guan's face changed drastically. Without a second thought, he gripped the Qingxuan Sword that had returned to him and rushed into the temporal vortex.

In the distance, the Multiverse Emperor raised his hand, and a mysterious force blocked Ye Guan. The Great Daoist Brush Master waved his sleeve, repelling that force to give Ye Guan the opportunity to dive into the vortex.

The Multiverse Emperor looked at the Great Daoist Brush Master and smiled. "Interesting."

Fu Wu, who was still in the middle of her breakthrough, saw Ye Guan rushing toward the vortex.

Her face changed drastically, and she promptly stopped her breakthrough to go after him.

However, the Great Daoist Brush Master stopped her, saying, "Lady Fu Wu, they're going to the past. There is a version of you there, and with your current abilities, you cannot coexist with your past self. If you do, both the present and past versions of you will perish, so you better focus on completing your breakthrough."
