Chapter 467: Goodbye

Ye Guan frowned. "My father’s era?”

The Great Daoist Brush Master nodded but went silent. Seeing that the Great Daoist Brush Master was unwilling to provide more details, Ye Guan didn\'t press on with the question. He stared deeply at the Great Daoist Brush Master and asked, "Are you willing to assist me sincerely?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master met Ye Guan\'s gaze and said, "If you\'re genuinely willing to establish a completely new order and make this vast expanse a better place, then I\'m going to assist you sincerely."

"How are you going to assist me? Or rather, how can you help me?"

Ye Guan knew it was unrealistic for him to fight the Time Reversers by himself. Moreover, he couldn\'t ask for help anymore, so he needed to build alliances and create a team.

Was establishing order something an individual could do by themselves?

No, it was impossible for a lone individual to do such a thing!

Ye Guan reckoned that even his plain-skirt aunt couldn\'t do it by herself.

However, she could destroy an order by herself.

Ye Guan needed allies—capable allies who would help him resist the Evil Dao and establish a new order. The Great Daoist Brush Master was definitely strong enough for that, so Ye Guan knew that he had to get the Great Daoist Brush Master’s help.

He couldn\'t let the Great Daoist Brush Master join the opposing camp!

After a long silence, the Great Daoist Brush Master said, "You only have a hundred years, just a hundred years..."

Ye Guan shook his head. "I don\'t have a hundred years. Those supreme elites will soon come after me. There\'s no way they\'ll actually give me a hundred years, which is why my top priority right now is to withstand their attacks..."

Ye Guan cast an expectant gaze at the Great Daoist Brush Master.

The Great Daoist Brush Master\'s expression changed subtly. "Why are you staring at me? Do you really think I can defeat all of them?”

Ye Guan adopted a serious tone as he said, “You\'re one of the Four Swords. If you can’t even stop them, then there\'s no need for us to even talk about establishing a new order.

"They\'ll definitely attack me, but I need enough time to grow to defeat them. With that in mind, I will need you to stall them. Buy some time for me."

“Wait!” the Great Daoist Brush Master felt uncomfortable upon hearing Ye Guan’s words, and he urgently cried out, “We need a long-term plan!”

Ye Guan looked into the Great Daoist Brush Master\'s eyes and nodded. “I\'m open to your suggestions.”

The Great Daoist Brush Master cast an odd gaze upon Ye Guan. He couldn\'t shake off the feeling that he was being lured into a trap.

Meanwhile, Cirou was staring at Ye Guan with a complicated expression. She had feared that Cizhen’s departure would cast Ye Guan into a prolonged state of sadness, but her concerns proved unfounded.

Cirou finally understood why her big sister chose him.

Ye Guan was young, but given enough time, he would blossom into a true powerhouse among supreme elites. Cirou realized just then that her opinion of him had been wrong all this while, and it was all because she had always been nitpicking his shortcomings, ignoring Ye Guan\'s young age.

The moment Cirou considered Ye Guan as equal to her, she realized that the latter was brilliant with a ton of potential.

“The True Universe and the Guanxuan Universe’s elites working together are enough to stall those from the Time River for a hundred years. In other words, there\'s no need for me to intervene.

"Elites? Who are they?" Ye Guan asked with narrowed eyes.

The Great Daoist Brush Master glanced at Ye Guan. “You have to make some sacrifices.”

“Sacrifices?” Ye Guan inquired, sounding curious.

The Great Daoist Brush Master nodded. "Yes."

Ye Guan’s voice deepened. “What sacrifices are you talking about?”

The Great Daoist Brush Master opened his palm and asked, “Is the Universe Map with you? If so, give it to me.”

Ye Guan decisively handed over the Universe Map to the Great Daoist Brush Master.

The Great Daoist Brush Master waved his sleeve, and the Universe Map spread open. Pointing to a region south on the map, the Great Daoist Brush Master explained, “This place has an ancient empire called Eternal Night Empire. Its denizens possess a unique energy—the Eternal Energy. It\'s second only to Dao Origins and Ancestral Origins.

"In fact, they are so strong that you will lose without the True Universe\'s help. Their Eternal Night Army is especially strong, and they are a terrifying force made out of Great Sovereigns.”

Ye Guan asked, “Are you suggesting that we establish an alliance with them?”

The Great Daoist Brush Master stared at Ye Guan and said, “They won\'t do that."

“Why? They\'ll die if the Universe Tribulation is allowed to erupt,” Ye Guan said.

The Great Daoist Brush Master questioned him, “Who is the target of those Time Reversers?”

Ye Guan sighed. If he were in the shoes of the Eternal Night Army, he wouldn\'t establish an alliance with himself as well. It sounded cold, but it was simply human nature.

“It\'s not impossible,” the Great Daoist Brush Master said.

Ye Guan asked, “What do I have to sacrifice?”

“Your body,” the Great Daoist Brush Master replied calmly.

Ye Guan frowned. "What?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master stared at Ye Guan and explained, “An alliance is impossible, but a marriage alliance can be established.”

Ye Guan\'s voice turned solemn as he asked, "Are you saying that I have to marry into them?"

"I\'m talking about you, of course."

"No, no, no," Ye Guan said, shaking his head. Then, he grabbed Cirou and Cishu’s hands and said, "My heart only has room for Little Rou and Little Shu."

The Great Daoist Brush Master remained silent in the face of Ye Guan\'s declaration.

Cirou glanced at Ye Guan and asked, "Just in your heart?"

Ye Guan smiled wryly and asked, "Do you really want me to marry into them?"

Cirou looked away and teased, "Who can say that you actually dislike the idea?"

Cirou attempted to free herself from Ye Guan\'s grasp, but he refused to let go. In the end, she relented and stopped struggling.

Ye Guan smiled bitterly. Cirou was really difficult to handle. Ye Guan decided to turn to Cishu, but Cishu merely smiled before saying, "What if she\'s incredibly beautiful?"

Ye Guan gave the hands of the two women a firm squeeze and said, "Does their beauty really matter to me when you two are the most important to me?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master cast a contemptuous gaze upon Ye Guan and said, "If I hadn\'t been aware of your numerous marriages, I would have for your words."

Ye Guan lifted an eyebrow.

The Great Daoist Brush Master\'s expression turned serious as he said, "Stop it with coaxing, will you? Can you hear me out first? The leader of the Eternal Night Realm is the Eternal Night Clan, and they possess a unique bloodline—-the Eternal Night Bloodline.

"It is on par with your Phoenix Emperor Bloodline, but it is slightly inferior to your Mad Demon Bloodline and your last remaining bloodline. You have three distinct, incredibly powerful bloodlines, which means you can significantly enhance their bloodline. I believe they\'d find it difficult to refuse a marriage alliance with you."

"Senior, I\'m forging the path of invincibility," replied Ye Guan in a deep voice.

The Great Daoist Brush Master sighed. "You\'re being too narrow-minded. Your grandfather and father have embraced more shameless paths to invincibility. Would a marriage alliance truly tarnish your pursuit of invincibility?"

Ye Guan fell into silence.

The Great Daoist Brush Master continued, "With the Eternal Night Empire’s aid, both the True Universe and Guanxuan Universe will become incredibly strong, and you will see a significant reduction in casualties for the upcoming battle. The Eternal Night Empire also has a unique array—the Eternal Night Array. It\'s capable of sealing the spacetime of the vast expanse, suppressing powerful intruders."

Ye Guan inquired, "Senior, why not form an alliance rather than a marriage alliance?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master shook his head. "I know you\'re hesitant, but think about it. As I said earlier, the Time Reverers are after you, so why would the Eternal Night Empire be worried? Why would they assist you if they stood nothing to gain?"

Ye Guan remained reluctant. "Must it be a marriage alliance?"

"It\'s the path with the highest chance of success," the Great Daoist Brush Master explained, "I actually think that they might even refuse your offer. The Eternal Night Clan of this vast expanse is extremely prideful, after all."

Ye Guan went silent.

"Just give it a shot!" Cirou chimed in.

Ye Guan stared at Cirou.

Cirou added, "No need to overthink it. I\'m not saying that you should sacrifice yourself outright. Let\'s just try talking to them."

Ye Guan smiled. "I get it."

Cirou shot him a look but went silent.

Ye Guan turned to the Great Daoist Brush Master and said, "Senior, we still have to visit the Eternal Night Realm. When should we depart?"

"Tomorrow. I\'ve got some matters to attend to today,” the Great Daoist Brush Master replied.

"Tomorrow it is, then," said Ye Guan with a nod before turning around to leave.

The Great Daoist Brush Master cast a worried gaze upon Ye Guan\'s departing figure. Ye Guan\'s situation was growing increasingly dire.

Just then, a fat monk rushed up to the Great Daoist Brush Master and pointed at him. "You\'re slacking off again. Do you not want to eat anymore?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master glared at the fat monk and pointed at the massive stone lion before them.

"Watch this!" the Great Daoist Brush Master exclaimed and slapped the half-a-ton stone lion.

Boom!

The stone lion crumbled.

The fat monk was so shocked that he collapsed. "W-w-what?"

The Great Daoist Brush Master walked over to another stone lion and slapped it.

Boom!

The stone lion was reduced to mere dust. The Great Daoist Brush Master then turned to the pale and terrified fat monk, saying, "Yes, I do not want to eat. What? You wanna hit me?"

...

Ye Guan entered Cizhen\'s room along with Cirou and Cishu.

The three were struck by sorrow upon stepping into the room.

Just then, Ye Guan walked up to the desk and found a letter as well as a book on the desk. The book was the final volume of Cizhen\'s book—she had truly completed her book!

Ye Guan put away the book and shifted his gaze to the letter.

After a moment\'s hesitation, Ye Guan unfolded it and started reading it.

"Hehe, I knew you\'d come back here... I have many things I want to say, but I don\'t want to appear too sentimental, so let\'s keep it simple: Buddy, I really wish we could get drunk together again, visit that tribal village again, and wear those beautiful tribal clothes again. Anyway, look after those three rascals for me. Take care of yourself, too, and goodbye..."
