Chapter 365: The Son Returns What The Father Owes

Jingchen stood up, his right hand slowly clenching into a fist as he said in a cold voice, "We\'ve been suffering nothing but defeat against the Guanxuan Universe, and why do you think it\'s happening?

"It’s because we’ve never seen them as a worthy opponent. Are we really going to keep on underestimating them?"

Zhan Shi fell silent.

Just like what Jingchen had said, the Eternal Civilization had indeed underestimated the Guanxuan Universe. No, to be more precise, they had never regarded them with any importance, and this was what had caused them to suffer heavy losses.

However, Zhan Shi was a rather cautious man, so he didn\'t feel quite comfortable with the idea. "Why don’t we wait for the First Sovereign to return before we make a decision?"

Jingchen calmly replied, "What do you think the True Universe will do if we don\'t make a move? They will surely think that we lack the courage to fight the Guanxuan Universe again. Once they think that way, do you really think they’re still going to work with us?"

Zhan Shi frowned.

Jingchen continued. "The True Universe is launching a full-scale attack on the Guanxuan Universe, and it is commendable for them to do such a thing for the sake of our alliance. If we can’t hold up our end of the deal and kill the plain-skirt lady, wouldn’t we become a laughingstock?"

Zhan Shi remained silent, unable to retort.

Jingchen looked at him and added, "I know what you’re worried about. That plain-skirt lady must be extremely strong. However, there has to be a limit to her strength. Let\'s say she can fight against ten supreme elites at the same time. Do you really think that she can do the same against a hundred or even a thousand?"

Zhan Shi contemplated for a few moments before he nodded and said, "To be safe, we should bring the Battle Sovereign along."

Jingchen smiled and agreed, "That goes without saying."

"Let’s go!" Zhan Shi said. The two of them disappeared from the great hall.

Jingchen was a go-getter, and he would always make a move the moment he made up his mind. The supreme elites of the Eternal World were mobilized, and they headed straight for Milky Way.

Of course, he remained cautious. He was afraid that the True Universe had tricked them, so he sent a few people to monitor the True Universe. He was only reassured upon receiving reports that the True Universe had sent many of their troops to the Xuzhen Battlefield, and they had even activated quite a few ancient arrays.

...

Cirou was sitting on a chair while looking down at the Xuzhen Battlefield.

Left Councilor Feng Qi was sitting down next to her.

An old man suddenly appeared next to them. He bowed slightly and whispered.

Cirou nodded and said, "Got it."

The old man bowed and left.

Left Councilor Feng Qi turned to look at Cirou, saying, "Cirou, the Eternal Civilization has sent out all of their supreme elites to kill the plain-skirt lady..."

Cirou smiled and said, "They’re quite bold, indeed."

Left Councilor Feng Qi was slightly puzzled. "Aren’t we going to let the both of them wear each other out?"

Cirou stared quietly at the Guanxuan Universe\'s Star Field silently...

Left Councilor Feng Qi wanted to say something else, but Cirou spoke, "Keep on sending our men here, but none of them are to make a move without my orders."

Then, she got up and turned around to leave.

Left Councilor Feng Qi frowned. Who on earth is Cirou trying to help here?

She no longer knew.

...

Ye Guan traveled on his sword with Mu Niannian and Erya next to him.

Erya\'s outfit was quite unique. She was wearing a white shirt with cute, colorful pictures paired with light blue jeans. She was wearing a pair of flip-flops, which made her appear casual and cool. As usual, she was still holding a stick of candied hawthorn, and she would sometimes let Little White take a lick of the candy.

Mu Niannian suddenly said, "There has been news from the Guanxuan Universe. The True Universe has sent out countless strong fighters to the Xuzhen Battlefield, but they haven\'t launched any attacks just yet."

Ye Guan frowned and asked, "What are they trying to do?"

Mu Niannian replied, "I don’t know, but from the looks of it, it seems like they don’t intend on attacking. If they wanted to attack, they wouldn\'t have made such a big ruckus. They must be up to something but don\'t worry too much about it. Lady An and the rest are around to take care of things."

Ye Guan nodded lightly, and the three of them continued on their journey.

After a while, Ye Guan seemed to have thought of something and walked up to Erya.

He reached out to Little White and patted her head.

Little White seemed confused as she stared at Ye Guan. Ye Guan carried her and searched her fur, but he didn\'t find anything. Little White looked at him, her face still full of confusion.

She then took out a stick of candied hawthorn and handed it to him.

Ye Guan hesitated for a little while before asking, "Can I borrow that shield to play around with for a bit?"

He coveted the shield, as it was an extremely powerful divine item.

Little White quickly shook her head.

Ye Guan sounded serious as he said, "I promise I’ll return it!"

Little White waved her tiny paws in a frenetic way.

Ye Guan looked at her, puzzled. Then, he looked at Erya. Erya licked her candied hawthorn and explained, "She said that your father has borrowed many things from her, and he hasn’t returned any of them yet."

Ye Guan froze and went silent. Goodness, my father actually did something like that? What kind of a monster is he?!

Ye Xuan had completely ruined their family\'s reputation by borrowing items without returning them.

Just then, Little White extended her tiny claw toward Ye Guan and turned it upside down.

Ye Guan looked at Erya.

Erya explained, "Your father said that his son would return what he owed."

Ye Guan\'s face immediately darkened. Fuck, he\'s too much! I\'m still his son, so how come he had the stomach to do something like that to me?!

Erya pressed down Little White’s tiny claw and said, "This grandson of mine is poor, so he can’t afford to return them."

Ye Guan had no idea what to say. Grandson...

Lady Erya was really starting to treat him as her grandson!

However, he was his senior, so he couldn\'t really refute her words. In addition, Erya had referred to his grandfather as brother, while she had addressed his father as Little Xuan.

Little White glanced sideways at Ye Guan. As if she had thought of something, she suddenly took his storage ring, but she shook her head upon examining it. She was obviously unimpressed by his items.

Ye Guan could only chuckle bitterly. Little Jia, Little White, and Erya were the only ones daring enough to call him poor.

Just then, Little White waved her tiny claws, and Ye Guan\'s Dao Imprint, as well as his lightning imprint, flew out of his glabella.

S-she can control my imprints?! Ye Guan was shocked.

Little White played around with the Dao Imprint and the lightning imprint for a moment before she nodded and put them away. Clearly, she thought the two imprints were good enough for her.

Ye Guan quickly cried out, "Little White, those are mine!"

Little White blinked. She pointed her tiny claw at Ye Guan and pointed it at herself.

Ye Guan looked at Erya.

Erya proceeded to explain, "Everything you have is yours, while everything she has only belongs to her."

Ye Guan\'s face darkened. Why is Little White acting like a bandit? Where did she learn to act this way?

Little White chuckled. It seemed that she had no intention of returning what she had snatched from Ye Guan.

"Little White, you can’t take what belongs to him," Erya said, "He’s our grandson, and we’re his seniors, so we must take care of him. Do you understand?"

Ye Guan had no idea what to say. Erya was getting more and more comfortable calling him grandson.

Little White hesitated a little when she heard what Erya said. A few moments later, she returned the Dao Imprint and the lightning imprint. She also felt that it wasn\'t appropriate to snatch Ye Guan\'s items, considering how she was his senior.

Ye Guan cast a contemptuous gaze at the Dao Imprint and the lightning imprint. These two bastards did not even resist and willingly went over to Little White.

He then turned to Little White. She was licking her candied hawthorn at the moment.

He suddenly came up with an idea. What if he borrowed something from her and told her that his son would return what he had owed?

Before he could do anything, however, Mu Niannian spoke, "We\'ll soon be at the Divine Ruins."

"Aunt Mu, are you familiar with this place?" asked Ye Guan.

Mu Niannian smiled and replied, "I don’t know much about this place, but I do know that it has many supreme elites from the Divine Dao Civilization. The majority of them were suppressed here."

"The supreme elites during the Great Daoist Brush Master’s era?" Ye Guan asked.

Mu Nianniann nodded and explained, "The Great Daoist Brush Master had overthrown the Eternal Civilization, but the order he had established had clashed against the vested interests of many supreme elites. Hence, the people who once followed him rose up against him, and the Great Daoist Brush Master responded by suppressing them.

"The Eternal Sovereign’s goal is to unseal those people in the condition that they would serve him for a while."

Ye Guan was slightly puzzled, and he asked, "How come the Great Daoist Brush Master didn\'t just kill them back then?"

"I don’t know," Mu Niannian replied.

Ye Guan fell silent.

"We\'re here to visit the Supreme Sword Sect," said Mu Niannian.

"The Supreme Sword Sect?" Ye Guan asked.

"Yes." Mu Niannian nodded and explained, "They were one of the two strongest sects during the era of the Divine Dao Civilization. The Great Daoist Brush Master once wielded them as one of his most powerful weapons.

"However, the first-generation Sect Master of the Supreme Sword Sect ended up rebelling against the Great Daoist Brush Master, and a fierce battle ensued. In the end, they were defeated, and the top-tier swordsmen of the sect were subsequently suppressed..."

"Actually, if there had been no internal strife during the early days of the Divine Dao Civilization, it wouldn\'t have been easy for the True God to defeat them. The internal strife had weakened the Divine Dao Civilization to the brink of destruction, and the True God\'s war on them was the final nail in the coffin."

"Something must have fueled those internal strifes." Ye Guan pointed out.

"It must be a difference in their ideologies," Mu Niannian said with a smile. She stared deeply at Ye Guan before continuing. "One could live forever during the era before the Great Daoist Brush Master\'s Divine Dao Civilization; every living creature could cultivate to immortality.

"In other words, a cultivator can keep extending their lifespan with breakthroughs. It can be said that they were sacrificing the vast expanse in exchange for their lifespan.

"The Great Daoist Brush Master took over and established the cycle of life and death, and it created an uproar. Think about it. Would you be happy if someone were to put a deadline on your life when you could have lived forever?"

Ye Guan shook his head.

Mu Niannian nodded quietly before continuing. "The vast expanse was chaotic without order before the era of the Great Daoist Brush Master\'s Divine Dao Civilization. After he rose to power, he started establishing order and rules. Living beings could no longer demand anything they wanted from the universe without paying a price.

"He also created and established the concepts of destiny, fate, and reincarnation using the Great Dao. He restrained everyone and shackled them with the chains of order."

Mu Niannian went silent before shaking her head and saying, "His actions had angered many people."

"No wonder he got beaten up," Ye Guan said.

Mu Niannian chuckled and asked, "What do you think about what he did? Was it wrong, or was it right?"

Ye Guan pondered briefly before saying, "It\'s a great thing for the vast expanse that must have been struggling to keep up with the resource consumption of so many cultivators. However, I was sure that the cultivators at the time were outraged."

"If the choice were in your hands, what would you do?"

Ye Guan froze and went silent.

"Would you follow the Eternal Civilization\'s path or the Great Daoist Brush Master\'s path?" asked Mu Niannian.

Ye Guan remained silent at the question.

Mu Niannian smiled and said, "It’s about time for you to start thinking about it."
