Chapter 131: The Sword Master!

Overall, the sight was incredible and majestic.

Mount Canglan was a sacred land of the denizens of Qingzhou, and it was even more sacred in the eyes of the Guanxuan Academy students. In fact, many students would visit the mountain to learn and be enlightened.

The Sword Master!

Everyone’s heart would always become filled with awe and reverence at the mention of the Sword Master.

Today, Mount Canglan was much livelier than usual. There was a massive crowd at the foot of the mountain up until the halfway point.

Everyone was waiting for a certain someone!

It was no longer a secret that the Main Guanxuan Academy had sent out an arrest warrant for Ye Guan. The fact that Ye Guan had decided to go to Qingzhou to make an Imperial Appeal had also spread far and wide across all Nine Continents.

Ye Guan!

The people of Qingzhou were familiar with Ye Guan’s name. After all, Ye Guan had shattered Qingzhou’s thousand-year reign as the Champions of the Upper Realm’s martial contest.

Today, he would arrive at Qingzhou!

Talents from all over Qingzhou rushed over to the Guanxuan Academy upon hearing of Ye Guan’s impending visit.

The crowd’s intentions differed from each other. Some were here because they were curious about Ye Guan’s prowess, some were excited to see his downfall, but most of them resented Ye Guan.

After all, Ye Guan had stolen Qingzhou’s thousand-year glory.

Finally, under everyone’s gazes, a young man appeared on the faraway bluestone steps.

Ye Guan is here!

Everyone’s eyes fell on Ye Guan—the talented swordsman from Nanzhou!

Ye Guan slowly walked toward Qingzhou’s Guanxuan Academy, and he was shocked upon seeing so many people around Mount Canglan.

Are they here to welcome me? thought Ye Guan, but he soon realized that they weren’t here to welcome him. It was evidenced by the resentment in the people’s eyes.

Ye Guan decided not to think too much about it as he continued walking toward the academy. He looked up and saw Qingzhou’s Guanxuan Academy on top of Mount Canglan.

The Sword Master! He took a deep breath. He felt both excited and nervous about meeting the Sword Master. It was really strange because the Sword Master was his idol!

Ye Guan inwardly asked, “Master Pagoda, what should I say to the Sword Master upon seeing him?”

“Call him Fa—” Little Pagoda caught himself and asked, “What do you want to say?”

“I don’t know,” Ye Guan said with a smile.

“Just follow your heart, then,” Little Pagoda said, “Say whatever you want to say.”

“All right!” Ye Guan said with a nod.

Swoosh!

A young man suddenly appeared in front of Ye Guan.

The young man looked at Ye Guan and asked, “You’re that Ye Guan from Nanzhou?”

Ye Guan nodded. “Yes.”

The young man scoffed, “You’re the one who defeated An Mu and snatched Qingzhou’s championship?”

Ye Guan didn’t say anything in response.

The young man opened his palms, and a spear appeared in his hand. He pointed the spear at Ye Guan and spat coldly, “Come, let me see just how powerful you really are!”

Swoosh!

A sword abruptly appeared a few inches away from the young man’s forehead.

The onlookers were shocked, and the young man stared at Ye Guan in disbelief.

Ye Guan retracted his sword and wordlessly walked away.

The young man’s face turned ugly. He turned to face Ye Guan and yelled, “That was a sneak attack! It’s not fair—”

Ye Guan waved his sleeve.

Slice!

A ray of sword light sent the young man’s head flying into the air.

The onlookers were stupefied.

However, Ye Guan was oblivious to their feelings and calmly continued his journey to the summit of Mount Canglan.

“You actually dared to kill a denizen of Qingzhou?!” A man from the side pointed angrily at Ye Guan and exclaimed, “Are you looking down on us?!”

The denizens of Qingzhou felt proud that they were born in Qingzhou. After all, the Sword Master was also born in Qingzhou. Unfortunately, their pride morphed into a sense of superiority over time.

The man’s words infuriated some of Qingzhou’s talents. He’s clearly looking down on Qingzhou and on us by killing someone right in front of us!

They ran toward Ye Guan and surrounded him.

Ye Guan stopped in his tracks. He briefly pondered before saying, “It seems that Qingzhou is filled with nothing but a bunch of sore losers.”

The man was furious. “What did you just say? Are you calling us sore losers?!”

Ye Guan chuckled and explained, “I defeated An Mu, and the An Clan openly took revenge on me just because I defeated their representative.

”I initially thought only the An Clan would behave that way, but it seems that Qingzhou is filled with sore losers as well.”

“Bullshit!” The man roared, “I’m talking about how you just killed someone in front of all of us! You’re clearly looking down on us by killing someone right in front of us!”

Ye Guan stared at the man and said, “Didn’t you see that he challenged me?”

The man glared at Ye Guan. “Does that give you the right to kill him? What, are you going to kill me as well because I challenged you?”

Swoosh!

There was a flash of sword light as the man’s head went flying into the air.

The onlookers were dumbstruck. Did he just kill him?

Ye Guan glanced at the man’s corpse before sweeping his gaze across the onlookers. “I will only accept life-or-death challenges today, and those daring enough to challenge me will be killed.”

With that, he continued walking.

The talents of Qingzhou stared at each other, but none of them dared to make a move.

Ye Guan had just instantly killed two men in front of them. They were terrified out of their wits.

Ye Guan soon arrived at a square paved with bluestone.

An old man suddenly appeared in front of him.

The members of the crowd scrambled to greet him. “Greetings, Chief Lu!”

Lu Xuan! The current Academy Chief of Qingzhou’s Guanxuan Academy!

Ye Guan stopped in his tracks and stared calmly at Academy Chief Lu.

Academy Chief Lu stared at him with a complicated look before saying, “Young Lord Ye, I’m afraid I can’t let you enter the academy.”

Swoosh!

A group of powerful cultivators surrounded Ye Guan. There were thousands of them, and there were about a hundred Divine Tribulation Realm cultivators among them.

A hundred Divine Tribulation Realm cultivators! Aside from them, there were a total of three Seal Shattering Realm cultivators in the group, including Academy Chief Lu.

However, Ye Guan remained calm. He knew that this would happen. He opened his palm, revealing a badge.

It was the Trial Towers King Badge! He had made sure to carry it with him all this while.

The badge floated over to Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan fell silent upon seeing the badge.

Sword Sovereign Ye Yu!

The badge was the reward from the system that Sword Sovereign Ye Yu had established, and the bearer of the badge could enter any Guanxuan Academy branch, and no one could stop the badge holder.

Why? It was all because Sword Sovereign Ye Yu had already examined the badge holder’s personality and character, so stopping them would be tantamount to questioning Sword Sovereign Ye Yu’s judgment.

Lu Xuan was bewildered. He definitely met Sword Sovereign Ye Yu before! Is he her disciple?

Lu Xuan looked at Ye Guan, full of questions in his heart.

Ye Guan explained, “She told me that I could enter any Guanxuan Academy branch with this badge aside from the Main Academy. Did she lie to me, Senior? She didn’t lie to me, did she?”

Lu Xuan fell silent. He was stuck between a rock and a hard place.

What should he do? Should he say that Sword Sovereign Ye Yu had lied to Ye Guan, then deny him access to the Academy? Lu Xuan pondered over it, but he was slightly afraid that Sword Sovereign Ye Yu would come to Qingzhou and kill him.

The members of the Sword Sect were all unreasonable, after all.

However, the Academy had truly sent out an arrest warrant for Ye Guan.

In other words, Lu Xuan would lose his position if he were to let Ye Guan into the Academy. He sighed to himself. It seems that the saying about how the commoners would always be the ones to suffer if the nobles were to fight each other was true!

Ye Guan suddenly asked, “Senior, do you think the Sword Master will take my side and seek justice for me?”

It wasn’t realistic for Ye Guan to fight his way into the Academy. Since he couldn’t do it, he decided to attempt to settle the matter amicably by chatting with Academy Lu Xuan first before doing anything else.

Let’s talk first before doing anything. I’m sure these people have brains in their heads, so they’ll oblige to a chat.

Lu Xuan wordlessly stared at Ye Guan.

Will the Sword Master seek justice for Ye Guan? Yes, he might!

The Sword Master had founded the Guanxuan Academy with justice and fairness in mind. The entire matter was the An Clan’s fault. If the Sword Master appeared, there was a high chance that he would take Ye Guan’s side.

But what if he didn’t appear?

Lu Xuan frowned. His Academy Chief position was truly giving him a headache.

He was currently at a crossroads. He had to gamble and pick a side.

Ye Guan added, “I’m sure you’re smart and kind with justice in your heart. If that weren’t the case, you couldn’t have become the Academy Chief of Qingzhou’s Guanxuan Academy.

“I’m sure you’re aware of the ins and outs, Senior. There’s a high chance that you’ll earn the Sword Master’s recognition by helping me today. In fact, you might even become a part of the Main Guanxuan Academy.”

Lu Xuan stared intently at Ye Guan and asked, “What if the Sword Master doesn’t appear?”

Ye Guan didn’t reply. I’m dead if he doesn’t appear!

“Young Lord Ye.” Lu Xuan sighed and said, “I’m aware of the injustice you’ve suffered, but the entire matter is extremely complicated, and there are many vested interests involved in it.

”The Academy has also sent out an arrest warrant for you, so the Academy will definitely punish me if I were to just let you go. I’m sorry…”

In the end, Lu Xuan decided to stand on the Guanxuan Academy’s side.

The Sword Sect was strong, but it was still under the Guanxuan Academy’s governance. He was expected to stop Ye Guan as well, which meant that he had an explanation to give the Sword Sect.

In addition, he was the Academy Chief that the Main Guanxuan Academy had assigned to Qingzhou. In other words, it was only natural for him to listen to the orders from the Main Guanxuan Academy.

If he were to help Ye Guan and the Academy decided to hold him accountable for his actions, he would have no excuses. Most importantly, the Sword Sect didn’t have the authority to dismiss him, but the Committee was a different story.

Ye Guan nodded slightly and said, “I understand.”

Lu Xuan didn’t make a move. He simply stared at Ye Guan. He didn’t have to make a move because the powerhouses of the Main Guanxuan Academy were about to arrive.

He was planning on letting them handle Ye Guan so that his involvement wouldn’t be that huge.

Ye Guan looked up at Mount Canglan. After a few moments of silence, he chuckled and inwardly asked, “Master Pagoda, I just want to seek justice for myself. How come it’s so hard?”

“Justice isn’t something that will be granted to someone by wishing for it. It is something that one must forcefully seize for themselves,” Little Pagoda replied.

Ye Guan nodded. “I understand. I completely understand.”

He looked at Lu Xuan and shouted, “Senior, I’m sorry!”

Swoosh!

A sword light streaked across the square.

Ye Guan had made the first move, surprising the onlookers.

The onlookers didn’t expect to see Ye Guan making the first move.

However, Lu Xuan was a Seal Shattering Realm cultivator, and he was accompanied by many powerful cultivators.

Is he really planning on going against the entire Guanxuan Academy of Qingzhou by himself?
