Sole Sword Supremacy

Chapter 625 629: Proud in Blue Through the Ages, Book and Sword Both Adrift

Han Zixiao cursed with satisfaction, while Wang Junze simply rolled his eyes inwardly.I also wish I could be so bold, but I'm neither that master Ye Piaoling, nor are you the Purple Sky Divine Monarch, who am I supposed to kill? Not being beaten to death is already good enough.

"What? Afraid?"

Glancing at Wang Junze again, Han Zixiao said: "If you don't have the courage, you can stay here to cultivate as well. For your master's sake, I don't mind taking you in."

Stay here?

Although Han Zixiao cannot leave, as long as he doesn't step out of the Secret Realm, no one in the world can threaten him, making this indeed a viable option.

However, Wang Junze rejected it outright without thinking.

"I have things to do outside. If I stay here... many people will die."

Whether it be Yang Hong and the Maiden of the Sea, or Peng Ru, Wang Xin, even Jing Yuan, they've all been drawn into this conflict. As long as I'm alive, I can gather these forces to make the Court and the Four Great Celestial Sects wary of acting rashly.

But if I hide here, it won't be long before they slaughter them all, even those demon cultivators from the Nether Sea who once trusted me will be strangled.

If they mistakenly believe that I'm dead, Su Yuwei and Luo Qingxuan might also do something reckless, consequences I cannot afford.

"You really care for the lives of others."

Sneering, Han Zixiao continued to ridicule: "And you're not afraid of dying yourself? Even without looking far, those fools from the Guan Family are unlikely to want you to leave alive."

"Don't underestimate the Guan Family. Over the years, I've given them many benefits. If it really came down to wanting to kill you, you may not be able to fend them off."

Those words serve as a reminder.

At least that old patriarch of the Guan Family is definitely not simple. Even if Han Zixiao just gives some casual guidance and benefits, his strength is definitely far beyond the ordinary Saint Realm.

"Afraid! But some things must be done despite fear."

Shaking his head, Wang Junze answered seriously.

"This is more like it."

His expression changed, Han Zixiao's eyes revealed satisfaction as he said: "If you're truly without this level of courage and want to hide here, I will personally kill you to avoid bringing disgrace to your master."

"..."

This crazy woman!

A chill rose in Wang Junze's heart, and he couldn't help but curse inwardly.

He did not doubt her words at all—this crazy woman is unpredictable, capable of executing any bizarre acts.

"Fine, I can help you deal with those Guan Family fools. Furthermore... with just one word from me, the Guan Family can fully support you next."

With a gentle laugh, Han Zixiao looked at Wang Junze and said: "But, you must promise me one condition."

"Please, senior!"

Adopting a serious expression, Wang Junze replied earnestly.

"Help me find Ye Piaoling!"

With a hint of madness in his eyes, Han Zixiao said coldly.

"... Senior, I really don't know where my master is, nor do I have any contact with him." Wang Junze couldn't help but respond with a wry smile.

"No, as long as the rules of heaven and earth are restored, as long as you enter the Divine Domain, Ye Piaoling will surely meet you!" Han Zixiao stated confidently.

"What if my master is actually dead?"

Wang Junze couldn't resist asking again.

"No one will believe Ye Piaoling is truly dead." Han Zixiao smirked: "With a stroke, he stuns the world, with his sword, he weeps for ghosts and gods; in blue clothing he stands proud for eternity, reunited in writing and sword."

"You haven't experienced that era, so you will never understand what the name Ye Piaoling signifies."

Listening to Han Zixiao's words, Wang Junze felt his heart tremble, unable to imagine the unmatched splendor of his master in ancient times.

Yet, Wang Junze couldn't help wanting to argue.

"What if... just what if?"

"Then I'll kill you!" Shooting Wang Junze a cold look, Han Zixiao stated indifferently: "You are Ye Piaoling's disciple. Once you step into the Divine Domain, killing you would mean triumphing over Ye Piaoling."

"???"

This crazy woman's logic is truly startling the world and making gods weep!

"Enough talk, will you or won't you agree?"

Looking at Wang Junze, Han Zixiao impatiently urged again.

"Alright, I agree!"

After a brief consideration, Wang Junze agreed earnestly: "If I can step into the Divine Domain, regardless of whether my master is still alive... I'll fight you!"

"Hahaha, good, I await you!"

With a hint of excitement on his face, Han Zixiao laughed loudly.

At the same time, Han Zixiao lightly pinched a seal at his fingertips, and in an instant, a purple thunderbolt burst through the void, heading outside the Secret Realm.

"Guan Canghai, crawl in here for me!"

The indifferent voice suddenly transformed into rolling thunder, traveling through the purple thunderbolt across the void!

...

Almost simultaneously, outside the Secret Realm, a divine talisman exploded from Guan Family's old patriarch, turning into rolling thunder!

"Guan Canghai, crawl in here for me!"

His expression changing slightly, the Guan Family's old patriarch's heart trembled suddenly, instantly sensing an ominous premonition.

Faced with the transmission from this Purple Sky Divine Monarch, he dared not defy.

Firstly, the other party is the Guan Family's biggest card, affecting their rise or fall. Secondly, he has the Divine Monarch's mark on him all along. Should he disobey, if the mark explodes, he may not die, but his Great Path will crumble, and he'll become a cripple.

Gritting his teeth, with resolute determination in his heart, he immediately stepped forward, directly entering the Secret Realm.

He couldn't determine whether Wang Junze was dead, nor did he know if bringing Wang Junze into the Secret Realm would provoke the Purple Sky Divine Monarch's anger, but regardless, he must bear this consequence.

Moreover, not only does the Guan Family need the other party, but the Purple Sky Divine Monarch also needs the Guan Family. As long as this point remains unchanged, it's not likely he'll truly kill him.

Unlike Wang Junze, the Guan Family's old patriarch is very familiar with this Secret Realm. In just a moment, he appeared in front of the White Jade Platform.

However, upon raising his head, the Guan Family's old patriarch immediately saw Wang Junze on the White Jade Platform.

His heart skipped a beat seeing Wang Junze still alive, realizing the danger. But now he could do nothing but pretend ignorance, slightly bowing, respectfully saluting Han Zixiao on the Divine Throne in the sky.

"Guan Canghai, pays respect to the Divine Monarch!"

Standing on the White Jade Platform, looking down at the Guan Family's old patriarch, Wang Junze's face revealed a mocking smile without answering.

"Who gave you the courage to use me?"

Chillingly casting a glance at the Guan Family's old patriarch, Han Zixiao sternly questioned.

In just a sentence, the thunder surged through the air, exuding an intimidating pressure as if a divine spirit had descended upon the world. Not only the Guan Family's old patriarch but Wang Junze too felt a shiver originating from his Divine Soul.
