I Have A Sword

Chapter 58: Indescribable

Ye Guan sat outside the great hall for the whole night. On the morning of the second day, Ye Guan finally entered the great hall. No one knew what conversation he held with Monk Dao, but their conversation didn’t last that long.

Nanling Yiyi came to find him. She was wearing a long, light blue dress, which perfectly suited her graceful demeanor and bright eyes. Overall, she looked beautiful.

Nanling Yiyi smiled at Ye Guan and said, “Junior Disciple Ye, let’s go!”

They had agreed to head to Yong City to get some shopping done.

The Daoist Sect’s buildings were so dilapidated that Ye Guan had to do something about it. In the end, he decided to renovate the sect. Everything else could wait aside from the gate and the great hall.

Ye Guan nodded in response to Nanling Yiyi’s words.

He opened his palm and created a huge sword out of sword energy. The sword made out of sword energy descended in front of Nanling Yiyi.

Nanling Yiyi excitedly stood on the sword. Ye Guan followed suit, and he made sure to keep a certain distance between them. However, he could still smell Nanling Yiyi’s fragrance, which reminded him of refreshing, fresh herbs.

Ye Guan emptied his mind. With a thought, the sword made out of sword energy turned into a ray of light and soared into the sky. In the blink of an eye, the two found themselves above the clouds, and they were speeding into the horizon.

Nanling Yiyi looked down and saw how the mountains beneath them got smaller and smaller as their altitude got higher.

“You’re so fast, Junior Disciple Ye!” she exclaimed.

Ye Guan smiled, but he didn’t say anything in response.

The two quietly soared through the clouds. Yong City was far, but Sword Travel was faster than any means of travel, so they soon arrived at Yong City.

They descended outside the city and walked their way toward the city gates.

Nanling Yiyi’s face was flushed out of excitement.

“That was so fast and comfortable, Junior Disciple Ye!” she exclaimed.

Ye Guan smiled, but he didn’t say anything.

Nanling Yiyi sighed in awe and muttered, “It’s a shame that my physique isn’t that good. I can’t really do anything else aside from casting a few divine spells as a Divine Mage.”

Ye Guan was slightly puzzled. “Divine Mage?”

Nanling Yiyi nodded and explained, “Yup! I know quite a few spells, and I even know a few forbidden spells. However, I avoid fighting if I can afford to do so.”

Ye Guan wanted to know more, but a cacophony of noises interrupted them.

The two turned and saw that many people had surrounded one person—no, they had surrounded an individual who looked like a half-human, half-beast.

The individual was a woman, and she was covered in blood-red scales. Her limbs, her face, and the upper half of her body were covered in blood-red scales. She looked rather terrifying at first impression.

Everyone seemed to be shouting while pointing at her.

Nanling Yiyi muttered, “She’s a half-demon!”

Ye Guan made a sidelong glance at her and asked, “A half-demon?”

Nanling Yiyi nodded and explained, “A half-demon is an offspring of a human and a demonic beast. The union of a powerful demonic beast and a human powerhouse would result in a powerful offspring with demonic and human beast forms.

“But if only one of them is strong, their offspring would be a half-demon. Their offspring would be neither human nor demonic beast.”

Ye Guan turned to look at the half-demon once again. She seemed to be about seventeen or eighteen years of age. Her demeanor was still quite immature, but her eyes were extremely cold.

Nanling Yiyi said in a soft voice, “The demon race does not acknowledge the existence of half-demons, and the same goes for mankind. The only outcome waiting for her is becoming a slave.”

Ye Guan fell into deep contemplation.

Moments later, he wordlessly walked toward the half-demon.

Nanling Yiyi chased after him.

The crowd jeered and laughed at the caged half-demon.

Ye Guan examined her before turning to look at the fat man next to the cage.

“How much for her?” he asked.

The crowd’s eyes landed on Ye Guan.

The fat man examined Ye Guan from top to bottom. He chuckled and asked, “Young Lord, are you interested in buying her?”

Ye Guan wordlessly nodded.

The fat man exclaimed, “Ten thousand gold spiritual crystals!”

Ten thousand gold spiritual crystals! The crowd was stupefied at the exorbitant price.

However, Ye Guan didn’t waste his breath bargaining. He took out a storage ring and passed it to the fat man.

The fat man examined the storage ring and said, “She’s yours!”

With that, the fat man around turned to leave.

The half-demon’s gaze was fixed on the fat man’s departing figure.

Ye Guan swept his gaze across the crowd and shouted, “Leave! There’s nothing left to see here.”

The crowd obliged and dispersed. However, some of them cursed at the half-demon before finally leaving.

Ye Guan turned to look at the half-demon, and he saw her staring at him as well.

“You’re free to go,” said Ye Guan.

The half-demon scoffed and asked, “What games are you playing here, human?”

Ye Guan replied, “It’s useless to be indignant, angry, and hateful. If you want to change your destiny, you have to fight for it. There are two reasons why I saved you: firstly, I’m kind, and secondly, I can afford it.”

The half-demon stared deeply at Ye Guan and said, “I’m just an ordinary half-demon. Your kind actions today will not be repaid. If you think that I’m going to save you one day, I’m sorry, but that only happens in cliche novels.”

“Pffft!” Nanling Yiyi failed to suppress a chuckle.

Ye Guan was speechless as well.

However, he soon recovered and retorted, “I have a hobby of reading novels as well, but I don’t read the cliche novels that you read. I advise you to read them less often, but if you insist on reading them, you should not take them seriously.”

Ye Guan turned around and walked into the city with Nanling Yiyi.

The half-demon stared at Ye Guan’s departing figure. She stood in silence for quite a while before she turned around and ran toward a huge mountain. Soon, she disappeared into the dense forest leading up to the huge mountain.

“Master, are you sure that bastard still has any destiny aura?” she muttered into the air while running.

“Yes,” replied a voice. ”It’s well hidden, but who do you think I am? Do you really think that I would be mistaken about something like that? In addition to destiny aura, he also has some other special kind of destiny.

”Ha… you should have attacked him earlier, you could have killed him and devoured his destiny aura!”

“He did not seem like a bad person…” muttered the half-demon.

The voice hurriedly said, “There’s no good or bad. In the Destiny Contest, there are only winners and losers. How are you going to compete with those heaven-defying talents in the upcoming Destiny Contest without devouring his destiny aura?”

The half-demon shook her head and said, “He spent money to save me. It’s a bit too much for me to repay his kindness with malice.”

The voice was silent for quite a while before it said, “I have experienced the vicissitudes of life, and I can assure you that your benevolence is ruthlessness to yourself. Your kindness will lead to your defeat.”

The half-demon replied, “But killing him goes against my conscience and morals…”

The voice finally relented. “All right, fine! Indeed, we shouldn’t do something so immoral.”

The half-demon boisterously laughed and said, “Master, is it true that you once fought the Sword Master?”

The voice replied, “Of course! What, did you think I was just bragging when I told you about it? I was once extremely strong. You know the Boundless Master, right? He’s like the Sword Master’s sidekick, but that little bastard ran away upon seeing me!”

The half-demon shook her head. She wasn’t familiar with the so-called Boundless Master whom the voice was talking about, so she changed the topic by asking, “The Sword Master… is he really that strong?”

The voice replied, “He’s very strong, but if you’re going to ask me if he’s invincible, then I would say no. His little sister is invincible rather than him! Haaa, I’m getting scared just thinking about her…”

The half-demon was confused.

“His little sister?” she asked.

“Yes. His wife also kept on bringing that destructive little fellow with her everywhere. Damn it! It was outrageous, I tell you!"

The half-demon wanted to say something else, but the voice added, “Let’s not talk about this matter anymore. Hurry up! Let’s look for any remnant destiny aura and use the Entrapment Technique on it!”

“Master, who taught you the Entrapment Technique? It’s a really devious technique,” asked the half-demon.

The voice exclaimed, “I learned it from the Sword Master! He used that technique to cheat me. He’s shameless! I’m telling you, he really is shameless, I’ve never met someone as shameless as him. Fuck! I can’t even begin to describe just how shameless he is…”

The half-demon was rendered speechless.
