I Have A Sword-Chapter 1286: A True Grandfather

The Upper God suddenly signaled at Ye Guan with his eyes.

Ye Guan understood and took a bold step forward, bowing respectfully. "Greetings, Second Brother."

The man in white looked at Ye Guan without speaking.

Ye Guan looked neither humble nor arrogant.

After a moment, the man in white smiled. "Not bad."

Upon hearing that, the Upper God and the Dao Defier Executioner felt relieved. Among their siblings, their second brother and third sister were the most difficult people to get along with.

Despite his gentle appearance, their second brother was the proudest of them all and rarely acknowledged anyone.

"Let's go meet Big Brother," said the man in white.

With that, he turned around and walked into the distance.

Everyone followed him.

Along the way, Ye Guan glanced at the man in white and turned to the Upper God, whispering, "Fifth Brother, what's Second Brother's background?"

The Upper God looked at the man in white walking ahead and smiled. "Second Brother is a legendary figure. He was born in a small town somewhere in a Tier Three Civilization. Born with a Dao Physique, he practiced martial arts at the young age of ten and became invincible by sixteen.

"At twenty years of age, he single-handedly invaded a Tier Four Civilization. By twenty-nine, he became unmatched there, and by thirty-two, he invaded a Tier Five Civilization on his own.

"When he was a hundred years old, he invaded a Tier Nine Civilization. All the geniuses of that era paled in comparison to him. Later, when he was about to enter a Tier Ten Civilization, he attracted the attention of the Ancestral Dao.

"The Ancestral Dao tried to recruit him, but he refused. As a result, the Ancestral Dao unleashed divine retribution on him, sending hundreds of Dao Channel Realm and dozens of Pinnacle Dao Realm experts to hunt him down.

"The weakest among them was as strong as that Taigu Qiu earlier."

Ye Guan was visibly moved. "What happened then?"

The Upper God chuckled. "He killed every last one of those experts."

"Wow..."

"Hahaha. And that's not all. Second Brother even stormed the Ancestral Dao World and fought the Ancestral Dao."

Ye Guan blinked, refraining from asking about the outcome.

The Upper God looked at the man in white, and his eyes were filled with respect as he said, "Although Second Brother failed to defeat the Ancestral Dao, he walked away unscathed and left rivers of blood in his wake within the Ancestral Dao World."

"What's Second Brother's name?"

"We don't know his real name," the Upper God said, smiling. "We only know that people back then called him Emperor Jun. However, his 'Emperor' title isn't one of those trivial titles from weak civilizations.

"He earned it by conquering an entire Tier Ten Civilization and breaking the Ancestral Dao's restrictions on fate, proving himself as an 'Emperor.'"

Conquering a Tier Ten Civilization and breaking the Ancestral Dao's restrictions on fate... Ye Guan was deeply impressed. "Incredible."

"Hahaha! Indeed!" The Upper God laughed heartily. "Second Brother is truly powerful!"

Just then, Emperor Jun's steps came to a halt.

Ye Guan looked ahead and saw a massive blood-red stone tablet.

It was the largest and most conspicuous stone tablet in the region.

A lady was standing in front of the stone tablet.

The Upper God whispered to Ye Guan, "That's Third Sister."

Ye Guan nodded and stared at the lady. She wore a flowing ink-colored dress and held an ancient scroll. She wasn't a stunning beauty, but she had a serene and elegant demeanor that made her appear as dignified as jade.

Emperor Jun suddenly turned to Ye Guan and smiled. "You will have to do it."

Ye Guan was puzzled.

The Upper God quickly reminded him, "Ninth Brother, your grandfather once passed through this place and left a sword energy here to help Big Brother suppress the Ancestral Dao's divine retribution.

"The retribution has almost dissipated, but your grandfather said that only you can remove his sword energy."

Ye Guan immediately understood what was going on.

His grandfather had created a fortuitous opportunity for him. Otherwise, with his grandfather's power, he could have eliminated the divine retribution himself.

Thinking of that, Ye Guan felt a warm sensation in his heart. This was what a true grandfather's love felt like. Blood was indeed thicker than water.

Ye Guan approached the stone tablet. Suddenly, a hearty voice echoed from within. "I heard from Third Sister that you've sworn brotherhood with Fifth Brother and the others?"

Ye Guan bowed slightly. "Yes, Big Brother."

"Hahaha!" The voice laughed heartily. "Are you sure about that, young man? You better think about it carefully. We are all outlaws, destined to be mortal enemies with the Ancestral Dao for life!"

"That's perfect. Not only are we brothers, but we're also like-minded."

"Haha!" A thunderous peal of laughter reverberated from the stone tablet. "You're great, kid! From now on, you're family."

Ye Guan nodded. "Big Brother, Third Sister, please accept my bow."

He bowed respectfully.

The lady glanced at him but said nothing.

A voice echoed from the stone tablet. "No need for formalities among family."

"Alright!" Ye Guan smiled. Then, he placed his hand on the stone tablet, which trembled slightly. A moment later, a sword light floated out of it.

I can finally lift this seal inside me! If I can't defeat you, my grandfather surely can! Ye Guan was overjoyed. He grabbed the sword light, preparing to place it between his brows, but the sword light dissipated like smoke.

Ye Guan was dumbfounded. Damn it! So much for taking a shortcut!

The stone tablet trembled, and a peal of laughter echoed once more. "I still need a bit more time. Second Brother, take care of what's going on outside for me."

"No problem." Emperor Jun nodded calmly. He then looked at Ye Guan. "Come here."

Ye Guan walked up to Emperor Jun.

Emperor Jun placed a hand on Ye Guan's glabella, and the Evil Dao Seal emerged.

Emperor Jun frowned. "Why is this Evil Dao so powerful?"

He had encountered an Evil Dao before but never one this strong.

Emperor Jun looked at Ye Guan, clearly curious. Ye Guan explained the matter regarding Fan Zhaodi, as Fan Zhaodi was an ally of the Ancestral Dao. If these brothers and sisters of his stumbled upon Fan Zhaodi in the future, they had to be prepared to fight her.

After hearing the story, Emperor Jun muttered, "The amalgamation of a myriad lives' worth of cultivation bases..."

Ye Guan nodded. "Yes, that's right."

Emperor Jun stared at the seal on Ye Guan's brow and remarked, "Her strength is immense. As for how strong? Only a battle will reveal it."

He then looked at the lady beside him and said, "Third Sister, take a look."

The lady walked gracefully to Ye Guan and extended a finger to his glabella. The evil seal trembled. A trace of righteous energy flowed from her finger into the seal. For a moment, all was still.

Then, the righteous energy was reduced to ashes.

Ye Guan's eyes widened as if he had been struck by lightning. Then, he collapsed to the ground.

"Ye Guan!" Fan Shan hurriedly caught him, panic-stricken. "You..."

The lady frowned, glancing at her finger. Her finger had cracked open. After a moment of silence, she remarked, "The force of extreme evil. We must take this opponent seriously."

Emperor Jun nodded. He took out a spiritual fruit and placed it on Ye Guan's chest, where it transformed into spiritual energy and flowed into him.

Emperor Jun turned to the lady and asked, "Third Sister, can you handle it?"

The lady frowned and thought for a moment before replying, "I can try."

"Alright." Emperor Jun nodded. With that, he walked into the distance.

The lady suddenly asked, "Where are you going?"

Emperor Jun replied calmly, "To kill some people."

And just like that, he disappeared...

The lady carried Ye Guan and left.

Fan Shan followed closely behind them. She had no idea what was going on, but she knew that they wouldn't harm Ye Guan.

The Dao Defier Executioner looked at the Upper God and asked, "Wanna kill people?"

The Upper God smiled. "Sure!"

With that, the brothers vanished into thin air.

Outside, the top experts across a myriad civilizations were in an uproar, particularly those from Tier Nine and Tier Ten Civilizations.

Just moments ago, they sensed the call of the Ancestral Dao.

"Those willing to fight will attain the Dao instantly!"

What was the meaning of that?

Many of these experts had no qualification to even talk to the Ancestral Dao, but the Ancestral Dao had actively reached out to them and promised immediate attainment of Dao to anyone willing to come and fight for it.

Although the exact reward was unclear, it could only be a great reward.

Thanks to the irresistible temptation, countless top experts rushed toward the Heavenly Tomb World.

There were already numerous formidable auras outside the Heavenly Tomb World.

The Heavenly Tomb World wasn't known to many people, as the Upper God and his companions had been hiding inside it to evade the Ancestral Dao's gaze. They had little contact with the outside world, making them virtually unknown.

"Hahahaha!" A wild, unbridled peal of laughter echoed throughout the heavens and the earth as a burly man tore through space and appeared before the Heavenly Tomb World.

He looked at the Heavenly Tomb World and shouted, "Come out and die, cowardly turtles!"

Swoosh!

A blurry figure streaked across the skies.

The burly man had no time to react before a hand gripped his throat tightly.

The burly man's face was filled with terror as he stared at the white-robed man before him.

The white-robed man squeezed lightly.

Crack!

The burly man's head was squeezed off his shoulders, and blood splattered into the air. The white-robed man held the bloody head and looked around. "The Dao Followers of this era are actually so weak? How disappointing..."

A deathly silence descended upon the battlefield.
