Chapter 302: Qing’er Babysits!
The surrounding spacetime quivered violently as Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao's voice echoed throughout Nanzhou. Spacetime rifts manifested above Ancient Desolate City, and twenty elite cultivators walked out of the rift.
Spacetime quivered incessantly and turned illusory, seemingly unable to withstand the gathering of such powerful cultivators.
Everyone was shocked.
They were Great Time Sovereigns, and there were twenty of them! However, it seemed that the procession wasn't over just yet as twenty Ordinary Great Sovereigns and dozens of Divine Sovereigns walked out of the rift.
In total, there were more than a hundred elite cultivators. It was a horrifying line-up!
Quite a few denizens of the Ancient Desolate City panicked at the sight, and some of them even decisively ran away. However, the cultivators of the Guanxuan Universe and the All Worlds were calm.
Why?
Because the Sword Master was here!
An Nanjing and the others wore strange expressions. They couldn't help but smile dryly at the fact that the Heaven Seizing Clan had chosen the worst day to attack the Guanxuan Universe. If they had chosen another date, it could have been an issue.
Today was different; the Guanxuan Universe didn't have to mobilize as many forces as the Heaven Seizing Clan to defeat the latter.
Ye Guan was surprised to see Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao standing at the helm of the elite cultivators. He truly didn't expect Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao to come here, and he found it a pity that the True Universe hadn't come here.
What a pity… Ye Guan sighed. He had been hoping for the True Universe to come and disturb his wedding. Compared to the Heaven Seizing Clan, he felt that the True Universe was much harder to handle.
“Hahaha!”
Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao boisterously laughed as he stared at Ye Guan and smiled. “I brought more than half of my clan's elites. What do you think? This is enough as a show of respect, right?”
More than half? Ye Guan frowned and asked, “Why did you not bring everyone?”
Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao’s eyes narrowed at that. He was about to speak when he realized that something was amiss.
Just then, Ye Guan stood next to a woman in a plain skirt.
Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao frowned while staring at the woman. For some reason, he felt uneasy staring at the woman, and it was all because he couldn't feel even the faintest trace of her aura.
Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao had become strong enough to perceive the aura of every cultivator. No one should have been able to hide their aura from him, but he truly couldn't sense the woman's aura, which meant that she wasn't simple.
To make matters worse, the plain-skirt lady was staring at him as if she was looking at an ant. Her gaze made Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao feel extremely uncomfortable. A swordsman was standing next to the plain-skirt lady.
The swordsman cast a contemptuous, mocking gaze at him.
Are they not afraid of me? Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao frowned deeply as his anxiety intensified. Just then, he seemed to have sensed something as he looked to the right and saw two swordsmen outside the Ye Residence.
One was wearing a long blue robe, while the other was wearing white clothing embroidered with cloud prints. The two figures also cast mocking gazes upon Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao.
Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao’s eyes narrowed. Fuck! So this was all a trap!
He truly didn't expect that he would get trapped in the Guanxuan Universe.
But now, there was no backing out. He had to risk it all.
Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao pointed at Ye Guan and roared, “Catch him alive! I'll face these four swordsmen myself!”
Boom!
Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao circulated the full extent of his cultivation base to suppress the four swordsmen. The fight was going to be one against four, so he had to go all-out. Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao had never been afraid of uneven fights.
The cultivators of the Heaven Seizing Clan rushed toward Ye Guan.
They moved the fastest they had ever moved, and they cast the most powerful attack of their lives.
Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao had warned them not to underestimate Ye Guan, so they had long decided that once they attacked, they had to give it their all and kill Ye Guan in one shot!
Meanwhile, the cultivators of the Yang Family remained unmoving above the clouds.
The cultivators of the Heaven Seizing Clan moved fast, and they arrived in front of the Ye Residence in the proverbial blink of an eye.
Just then, the plain-skirt lady lifted her head.
Spurt!
An inexplicable scene transpired—hundreds of heads flew into the air at the same time, spraying blood everywhere. Dull thuds echoed afterward, and the onlookers snapped out of their daze.
Pin-drop silence descended as the onlookers stared in absolute disbelief.
They're all Great Sovereigns, but they died… just like that? What the fuck?
The mighty Great Sovereigns couldn't even fight back.
Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao looked as if he had been struck by a bolt of lightning.
He froze and went silent, but his mind was anything but silent. They're dead? They died in an instant?!
Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao’s eyes filled with horror, and his voice was trembling as he stammered, “Y-y-you… who are you?”
The plain-skirt lady stared quietly at Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao.
She was staring at him as if she was looking at an ant.
The plain-skirt lady's contemptuous gaze infuriated Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao, and he roared, “How dare you look down on me!”
He clenched his right fist, and an indescribable, powerful aura surged out of him. The surrounding spacetime seemed to pulsate beneath the influence of his aura.
The onlookers held their breaths, thinking that Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao was about to attack, but he turned around and tore a rift in spacetime before decisively jumping into it.
The onlookers were speechless. He ran away?
Ye Guan was stunned as well. He thought that Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao would throw all caution to the wind and attack, so he was caught off guard when Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao tucked his tail between his legs and ran.
This is absurd! Ye Guan couldn't let Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao live to see another day because he would certainly become a massive headache. With that in mind, Ye Guan turned to his plain-skirt aunt and said, "Aunt…"
The plain-skirt lady turned to look at him and said, “Can't catch up to him.”
You can't catch up to him? Ye Guan’s expression darkened. Are you pulling my leg?! Who in the vast expanse is fast enough to escape from you?
Ye Guan turned to look at his father.
The Sword Master blinked innocently, but he sounded serious as he said, “He's too fast. I can't catch up to him as well.”
Ye Guan went silent. Damn it!
Ye Guan wasn't born yesterday, so he knew that his father and his aunt had basically told him to go and deal with Sovereign Heaven Seizing Dao by himself. Ye Guan couldn't believe that they had left him with a big headache to deal with again.
The Sword Master smiled and changed the topic. “We should begin.”
Ye Guan felt helpless.
Qin Guan suddenly called out, “Wait!”
The Sword Master looked at her in confusion.
Qin Guan rolled her eyes and said, “Little Jia’s parents aren't here yet."
She then looked at Nalan Ming and smiled. “Please come up here and sit with us.”
Someone brought two chairs next to Qin Guan.
Nalan Ming and his wife were stunned. They never thought that Qin Guan would let them sit in the front with them and allow them to receive Ye Guan and Nalan Jia’s bows.
Nalan Ming hurriedly said, “Pavilion Master Qin, it's fine. We'll just stand.”
Qin Guan smiled and said, “Today, we aren't such prestigious figures. We're just Little Jia and Little Guan’s parents. Please have a seat. Let’s not keep them from their bedroom any longer.”
Hahaha!
Laughter erupted from the crowd.
Ye Guan chuckled while Nalan Jia's ears and cheeks turned red. Nalan Jia pinched Ye Guan's palm upon hearing the latter laugh.
Nalan Ming chuckled and relented. He held the hand of his beautiful wife and sat in front of Ye Guan and Nalan Jia. However, they were still a bit nervous. After all, they were sitting next to the Sword Master and Pavilion Master Qin!
Just then, Ye Xiao chuckled and exclaimed, "Bow to Heaven and Earth!"
“No need!” The Heavenly Dao of Nanzhou peeked out of the clouds above the Ye Residence and said, "There's no need to bow toward me…"
Everyone laughed boisterously at the Heavenly Dao's words. Ye Guan and Nalan Jia were basically the masters of the Guanxuan Universe, so the Heavenly Dao of Nanzhou wasn't bold enough to make them bow toward it.
Moreover, the Sword Master and Qin Guan were here.
However, Ye Guan didn't think too much about it. He brought Nalan Jia with him and bowed. They still had to go through the formalities, after all. As for status, he had never thought of himself as above others.
After seeing them bow to Heaven and Earth, Ye Xiao said, “Bow to the parents.”
Ye Guan and Nalan Jia turned around and slowly bowed to the four elders. Looking at the couple, Qin Guan and the Sword Master exchanged smiles and glanced at each other. The Sword Master quietly held Qin Guan's hand.
"Bow to each other as a couple!"
Ye Guan and Nalan Jia faced each other and bowed slowly to each other.
Ye Xiao laughed heartily and shouted, "Escort them to the bridal chamber!"
Nalan Jia’s red ears turned a shade redder. Thankfully, there was a red veil covering her face, so no one could see her flushed face and red ears.
Ye Guan chuckled and pulled Nalan Jia away.
However, he seemed to have thought of something as he turned to his parents and aunt with a worried look.
The Sword Master smiled and said, “Go ahead!”
Ye Guan hesitated before staring at his plain-skirt aunt and asking, “Aunt, are all of you still going to fight each other?”
The plain-skirt lady nodded without saying anything.
Ye Guan chuckled bitterly.
The plain-skirt lady stood up and started walking away.
Just then, the Sword Master grabbed her hand and looked at her quietly.
The plain-skirt lady smiled and said, “It’s fine.”
With that, she turned and started walking away.
The Sword Master called out, “Wait!”
The plain-skirt lady turned to look at the Sword Master. “Don’t worry.”
The Sword Master smiled and said, “I'm not worried; I just want you to help me with one thing.”
The plain-skirt lady nodded. “Sure.”
The Sword Master turned to the blue-robed man and the Unfettered Swordsman before saying, "Father, Big Brother, don't worry and just go ahead! Once everything is settled, I'll come and look for you two!"
The blue-robed man smiled and glanced at the Unfettered Swordsman. The Unfettered Swordsman nodded, and the two turned into a ray of sword light that disappeared into the distant horizon.
The Sword Master's expression was somewhat solemn, worry flashed in his eyes.
Qin Guan held his hand tightly and whispered, "It'll be fine."
The Sword Master turned toward the vast expanse and said, "It's hard to say..."
Qin Guan was momentarily stunned, and then her expression turned solemn soon afterward. The Sword Master was extremely worried. He turned to Ye Guan and sighed to himself.
He had to take responsibility, and he couldn't just leave everything to the plain-skirt lady.
He had suffered back then, and he couldn't let his son go through the same hardships.
The Sword Master walked up to Ye Guan, and he smiled upon seeing Ye Guan’s worried face.
“Don’t overthink it. I'm still around, and I'll deal with it myself!”
"Okay, " Ye Guan said. He liked how his father had said that he would deal with it himself.
The Sword Master laughed heartily before turning to look at the plain-skirt lady. “Qing’er, this brat needs a ton of experience, and I'm thinking of making him cultivate in the Chaotic Star World. I'm worried about the idea of letting him go there by himself, so I want you to help me by babysitting him. Can you do it for me?"
Babysitting? The plain-skirt lady's expression stiffened.
Ye Guan was astonished, and he hurriedly asked, “Senior, what's the Chaotic Star World?”
The mysterious lady explained, “It's a dangerous world filled with perils that even Great Sovereigns would be hard-pressed to survive. Congratulations, you're entering the big stage. Unfortunately, you'll be in extreme danger this time, and I mean it."
"It's fine!" Little Pagoda called out and said, “Someone's going to babysit him!”
The mysterious lady had no idea what to say to that.
