Chapter 192: Kill the Sword Master’s Son!
The Sword Master’s Dao Imprint!
An ancient, inscrutable aura filled the world the moment the Sword Master’s Dao Imprint was revealed. The ancient aura was old and was filled with a primordial, desolate energy. Naturally, it felt extremely powerful!
The world turned illusory and blurry, astonishing everyone.
It didn’t take them long to recognize that the Dao Imprint on Lu Tian’s glabella was the Sword Master’s Dao Imprint.
Lu Tian’s supporters stared with blazing eyes at the Sword Master’s Dao Imprint, and their blood boiled upon realizing that Lu Tian truly possessed the Sword Master’s Dao Imprint.
Words were unnecessary for everyone to understand what this meant—they all had the same thought.
Lu Tian’s supporters laughed boisterously and without any reservations.
Meanwhile, the disciples of the Sword Sect glanced at each other.
Is Lu Tian really the Sword Master’s son? Can Ye Guan even defeat Lu Tian if Lu Tian is really the Sword Master’s son?
Ao Sheng glared at Lu Tian in the distance and shouted, “So what if he’s the Sword Master’s son? Young Lord Ye is invincible! He’s Invincible!”
The members of the Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan nodded profusely.
The Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan was in the same boat as Ye Guan, and they would stay together in both weal and woe! If Ye Guan won, the Ancient Heavenly Dragon would prosper. If Ye Guan lost the battle, the Ancient Heavenly Dragon would die with him.
An internal strife would be foolish at this critical juncture. They had to be united at all costs.
Furthermore, there was a chance that Lu Tian wasn’t the Sword Master’s son. Who said that owning the Sword Master’s Dao Imprint meant that the owner was the Sword Master’s son?
Meanwhile, the expressions of Zhang Yuntian and the members of the Lingxu Blessed Land turned incomparably ugly.
The Sword Master’s son? If Lu Tian is the Sword Master’s son, how is Ye Guan going to win this battle? Zhang Yuntian fell silent as he contemplated. Would our ancestor harm us? Of course not!
Zhang Yuntian watched Ye Guan and chuckled. He hadn’t interacted with Ye Guan for a long time, but he could tell that despite his monstrous talent, the young man was still both humble and kind. He would surely achieve great things in the future!
Even if Ye Guan lost today’s battle, Zhang Yuntian could feel that he wouldn’t have any regrets supporting the former.
Meanwhile, the elders of the Time Paradise were calm. They were slightly taken aback by the revelation, but they quickly regained their composure.
The Sword Master’s son? As if!
Lu Tian was nothing like the Sword Master. Meanwhile, Ye Guan and the Sword Master looked like they were made from the same mold.
Ye Guan was the true Chosen One!
Apart from Nanli Yin, the higher-ups of the Time Paradise weren’t worried at all.
Everyone’s cheers got to Lu Tian’s head, and he laughed boisterously.
He spread his arms, and a faint red glow enveloped him.
Everyone fell silent at the sight.
“The Mad Demon Bloodline! That’s the Mad Demon Bloodline! He really is the Sword Master’s son!” someone exclaimed.
The Mad Demon Bloodline!
The onlookers fell into uproar.
Who doesn’t know that the Sword Master has the most powerful bloodline in the universe—the Mad Demon Bloodline running through his veins? Lu Tian actually has the same bloodline as him! He must be the Sword Master’s son!
Quite a few members of the aristocratic family and great clan factions fell to their knees.
Someone even shouted, “Greetings, Young Master!”
The remaining supporters froze, but they soon knelt as well.
Respect was palpable in their voice as they yelled, “Greetings, Young Master!”
The yelling quickly turned into chanting as more and more people knelt and greeted the Sword Master’s son.
The Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan, the Sword Sect, and the Lingxu Blessed Land were astounded. Is Lu Tian really the Sword Master’s son?
However, the people of Time Paradise remained calm.
Nanli Yin glanced at Grand Elder and the elders. They seemed calm, but she could see doubt and bewilderment in their eyes.
Nanli Yin smiled and explained, “Legends say that one’s body would turn red like blood upon activating the Mad Demon Bloodline running through their veins. And take a closer look at Lu Tian—is he giving off the Mad Demon Aura?”
The elders were stunned. Indeed, Lu Tian looked completely sane. He wasn’t giving off even the slightest hint of the Mad Demon Bloodline’s signature Mad Demon Aura!
Nanli Yin continued. “Take a close look at Young Lord Ye. His surname is Ye, and his first name is Guan. He’s a Great Sword Sovereign despite his young age, and he greatly resembles the Sword Master… I think you all know what that means.”
The elders hurriedly nodded. Ye Guan was definitely the Sword Master’s son!
The Grand Elder swept his gaze across those kneeling toward Lu Tian. He couldn’t help but mock them, “What a bunch of fools, can’t you just compare Ye Guan’s appearance to the Sword Master?”
The Second Elder laughed and said, “I don’t think it’s strange. If Clan Leader hadn’t told us about it, we wouldn’t have made that kind of connection at all. Yes, we wouldn’t have gotten remotely close to coming up with that idea.”
The Grand Elder nodded and said, “Indeed.”
Nanli Yin looked up at Ye Guan, and a hint of worry flashed past her eyes.
Ancestor, is Ye Guan really the Sword Master’s son?
She was just trying to fool the Grand Elder and the Second Elder, but she had to admit that Ye Guan truly resembled the Sword Master.
Nanli Yin couldn’t think of any other explanation behind her ancestor’s instructions and her calmness at the thought of offending the Immortal Treasures Pavilion and the Guanxuan Academy for the sake of helping Ye Guan.
Regardless, Time Paradise was now in the same boat as Ye Guan.
From now on, they would bask in the same joy and sorrow. They had no choice but to support Ye Guan all the way!
On the Life or Death Stage, Ye Guan stared at Lu Tian blankly.
The Sword Master’s son? Ye Guan suddenly laughed out loud. So what?
Ye Guan pointed his sword at Lu Tian. He laughed boisterously and said, “So what if you’re the Sword Master’s son? Today, I’ll kill the Sword Master’s son!”
He kicked off of the ground with his right foot and flew toward Lu Tian, leaving behind a trail of dazzling sword light.
“Fuck!” Little Pagoda cursed inside the tiny pagoda. “I didn’t expect this little bastard to have such a violent nature. He actually wants to kill his father’s son?”
“Arrogant prick!” roared an onlooker.
Lu Tian’s eyes turned fierce as he stared at Ye Guan. The latter had just discovered that he was the Sword Master’s son, but rather than admitting defeat and acknowledging him, Ye Guan actually wanted to kill him.
He deserved to die for his disrespect!
Meanwhile, Ye Guan stared intently at Lu Tian with no fear in his eyes.
I’m still going to kill you, even if you’re the Sword Master’s son! Ye Guan respected the Sword Master, but he had never been afraid of the Sword Master, so how could he be afraid of the Sword Master’s son? I’ll definitely bury him today! I’ll get rid of the Sword Master’s unruly son!
A tremendous amount of killing intent gushed out of Ye Guan, strengthening his sword force. The power of his sword continued to climb, and when it reached the summit, Ye Guan slashed out with his sword!
The sword move seemed to have split the sky itself
However, Lu Tian remained unperturbed. He smiled coldly at the oncoming attack and activated the Sword Master’s Dao Imprint. A terrifying aura more powerful than Ye Guan’s sword force seeped out of him.
Lu Tian was no longer in the Ultimate Realm; he had made a breakthrough and reached the True Realm above the Ultimate Realm. A cultivation base at the True Realm was necessary to use the Sword Master Dao’s Imprint to its full potential.
Lu Tian glared at Ye Guan and mocked, “An ant actually dares to defy the heavens?”
The Sword Master’s Dao Imprint emitted a dazzling light as it was about to take action, but an unexpected change occurred.
The Sword Master’s Dao Imprint on Lu Tian’s glabella shook violently before it tore itself out of Lu Tian’s forehead under everyone’s astonished gaze.
A powerful explosion occurred, sending Lu Tian flying by hundreds of meters.
The onlookers were stunned.
Meanwhile, the Sword Master’s Dao Imprint flew toward Ye Guan.
Ye Guan was shocked. What is this thing doing?
His sword force had already reached its peak. He had to execute his sword move at all costs.
Is there some kind of trick here?
The wary Ye Guan gathered as much power as he could before thrusting his swords toward the Sword Master’s Dao Imprint.
He performed the Critical Method using twenty swords!
Both heaven and earth trembled at the collision between Ye Guan’s swords and the Sword Master’s Dao Imprint. The impact sent Ye Guan flying hundreds of meters away. He spat a mouthful of blood upon stabilizing himself in mid-air.
Waves of intense pain assaulted his right arm, and he looked down to find a mangled arm. The wound was so severe that Ye Guan could see his bone sticking out. It was a terrifying sight to behold.
Ye Guan was in a daze. He was too stunned to process what had just happened.
What a ridiculously powerful Dao Imprint!
Ye Guan heard Ao Qianqian coughing inside of him.
Ye Guan was flustered, and he hurriedly asked, “Lady Qianqian, are you okay?!”
Ao Qianqian replied, “I’m fine!”
Ye Guan frowned. “Are you sure?”
Ao Qianqian reassured him by saying, “My physique is much stronger than yours, so how can I suffer severe injuries when your injury isn’t even that severe?”
Ye Guan thought for a little bit before nodding.
He turned and found the Sword Master’s Dao Imprint floating in front of him.
The Dao Imprint vibrated, seemingly trying to tell him something. However, Ye Guan was extremely wary of it.
The Dao Imprint belonged to Lu Tian, so he didn’t dare to let his guard down.
Ye Guan inwardly asked, “Master Pagoda, what’s going on with this thing?”
Little Pagoda calmly explained, “It’s begging to be spared.”
Ye Guan’s face darkened as he chided, “Master Pagoda, can’t you read the room? Can you stop fooling around? We’re in a serious situation here!”
Little Pagoda was speechless. He believes me whenever I lie, but he actually won’t believe me now that I’m telling him the truth. Just what is wrong with this little bastard?
Ye Guan frowned at the Sword Master’s Dao Imprint.
The Sword Master’s Dao Imprint suddenly turned into a ball of light. Without any warning, it reappeared a few inches away from Ye Guan’s glabella before sinking into it as if it were a rock thrown into the ocean.
A powerful and terrifying energy abruptly filled Ye Guan.
Ye Guan was stunned, and so was everyone else!
Wait, did that Dao Imprint just rebel against its owner?
Ye Guan stood rooted in shock. Soon, the Dao Imprint appeared at the back of his mind. He could clearly feel its presence. Obviously, the Dao Imprint had merged with him!
Ye Guan was both curious and wary.
Meanwhile, Lu Tian was beyond stupefied at the sight—no, he was already stupefied the moment the Sword Master’s Dao Imprint sent him flying.
What the hell is going on?
Everyone went silent as they glanced at each other in confusion.
Soon, the entire Trial Peak became eerily quiet.
