I Have A Sword

Chapter 451: I Am Naked Underneath

Their relationship would come to an end!

Ye Xuan was allowed to seal Ye Guan's realm, and Ye Guan himself wasn't going to stop him from doing so, as the former was too strong for him to do anything about it. In addition, Ye Guan was well aware of his father's kind intentions.

It wasn't like Ye Guan hadn't earned any profit while his cultivation base was sealed. In fact, his sword cultivation base had improved by leaps and bounds, and he had also achieved a breakthrough in his mindset.

However, there was a bottom line to it. If the bottom line was crossed and Ye Xuan insisted on suppressing Ye Guan, the latter would no longer think that Ye Xuan had kind intentions.

Ye Guan's gaze fell on the black-robed man. The black-robed man was about to make a move when a powerful sword intent surged from within Ye Guan, suppressing the black-robed man.

Boom!

To everyone's astonishment, the black-robed man knelt with a loud boom.

Why was he kneeling? The Xuanyuan Clan elite members stared at Ye Guan in disbelief—no, they were staring at Ye Guan as if he were a monster.

Xuanyuan Ling's eyes widened, and she was in disbelief as well. She was so shocked that her delicate frame couldn't stop quivering.

Qin Xizhi's eyes were filled with shock as well. She didn't expect that the man who had just boldly asked for her number would possess such terrifying strength.

The black-robed man stared at Ye Guan in horror.

"T-this is impossible! H-how is this..." the black-robed man trailed off and clenched his fists. A powerful, baleful aura burst out of him, but Ye Guan's sword intent crushed it as soon as it appeared.

The black-robed man paled, and his eyes were full of fear as he stared at Ye Guan.

"W-w-who are you?" the black-robed man asked in a trembling voice.

Ye Guan glared sinisterly at the black-robed man and quietly raised his hand. Xuanyuan suspended overhead transformed into a ray of sword light that struck the crown of the black-robed man's head.

The black-robed man's eyes widened, and he stopped breathing just then.

A deafening silence descended upon the entire Xuanyuan Residence. The terrifying black-robed man had perished in just one sword move, and it was a result that none of the people here could have even imagined.

Xuanyuan Ling looked at Ye Guan with a complex expression. She knew that Ye Guan was powerful, but she didn't expect him to be so strong. Xuanyuan Ling was also pretty confident that Ye Guan hadn't gone all-out, and it was all because of the leisurely manner in which he had killed the black-robed man.

The black-robed man had died so quickly that no one could have possibly taken even a glimpse of Ye Guan's true power in that instance.

Qin Xizhi's beautiful eyes were filled with shock as she stared at Ye Guan. Ye Guan looked to be about the same age as her, but the former was definitely more terrifying and stronger than her.

Meanwhile, Xuanyuan Qi and the other Xuanyuan Clan members were both shocked and delighted. They were shocked by Ye Guan's display of strength, and he had just proven to them that he was indeed a legendary cultivator; his strength was beyond any Master they had seen so far.

As for their delight, it had come from the fact that Ye Guan was a son-in-law of the Xuanyuan Clan.

Ye Guan opened his palm, and Xuanyuan flew into his hand. Ye Guan looked down at the sword in his hand and reaffirmed that Xuanyuan was indeed extraordinary. Perhaps only the Path Sword and Qingxuan were stronger than it.

Ye Guan walked up to Xuanyuan Ling and extended Xuanyuan to her.

Xuanyuan Ling hesitated for a moment before saying, "It has chosen to follow you."

"It belongs to the Xuanyuan Clan," Ye Guan retorted.

Xuanyuan Ling stared deeply at Ye Guan and said, "Let it follow you."

Ye Guan was silent.

Xuanyuan Qi walked over just then with a smile. "Ling'er is right. Mr. Ye, only you can bring out the true power of this sword. It would only gather dust if it were to stay here, so please take it away.

Ye Guan glanced at Xuanyuan. The sword trembled slightly and emitted a low, deep hum.

Ye Guan smiled. "You shall follow me, then."

If Ye Guan were asked, he would say that he had taken a liking to the sword. Not only was it powerful, but it could also awaken the ancient bloodline within him and strengthen the power of his Phoenix Emperor Bloodline.

Ye Guan put away the sword before staring at Xuanyuan Ling and the Xuanyuan Clan members. "I'm not going to take this sword away for free. If your Xuanyuan Clan has any needs, feel free to let me know. I'll help if I can."

Xuanyuan Qi seemed displeased at Ye Guan's remark as he said, "Mr. Ye, how can you say such a thing? You're Ling'er's boyfriend, so you're one of us. We're from the same family, so it's only natural for us to help each other."

Boyfriend? Ye Guan was stunned, and he looked at Xuanyuan Ling. Ye Guan was about to explain when Xuanyuan Ling chimed in, interrupting him. "Dad, you should go and reassure the clan members. I'll talk to him in the meantime."

Xuanyuan Qi smiled. "Sure!"

Xuanyuan Qi turned around and led the Xuanyuan Clan members away.

Elder Qin was also getting ready to leave with Qin Xizhi. Ye Guan noticed that and hurriedly walked up to them with a smile. "Could the both of you give me your mobile numbers?"

Elder Qin was somewhat puzzled. "Why do you want our numbers, Mr. Ye?"

Ye Guan smiled and explained, "There's a connection between my family and the Qin Clan."

A connection? Elder Qin became even more confused. As far as he could remember, Yanjing had no powerful family with the surname Ye. Regardless, Elder Qin was willing to give Ye Guan his number, but Elder Qin had a difficult relationship with technology, so he never really had a mobile phone.

In other words, Elder Qin couldn't give Ye Guan his mobile number, as he never had one.

Qin Xizhi stepped up just then to save the day with a pen and paper in her hand. She wrote down a string of numbers and handed it over to Ye Guan, saying, "Mr. Ye, this is my phone number. The Qin Clan's doors are always open to you."

Ye Guan received the paper and smiled. "Alright."

Qin Xizhi stared deeply at Ye Guan before nodding slightly and leaving with Elder Qin.

The Qin Clan... Ye Guan thought as he watched them leave. He was excited to visit the Qin Clan, as his mother was from the Qin Clan.

Xuanyuan Ling walked over just then and stared at Ye Guan. "Let's... talk."

Ye Guan nodded. "Sure."

Xuanyuan Ling then led Ye Guan to a garden.

Ye Guan glanced at Xuanyuan Ling next to him and said, "You were absent, so I thought you were still angry about that incident..."

Xuanyuan Ling was a bit puzzled. "What incident?"

Ye Guan hesitated briefly before replying, "The incident on that night..."

Xuanyuan Ling's face flushed instantly.

Ye Guan sounded serious as he added, "I made a mistake that night. I went out of control and almost hurt you."

Xuanyuan Ling shook her head and said, "It was my fault."

Ye Guan thought for a moment before saying, "Regardless, it's good that nothing untoward happened to you. Miss Ling, I really appreciate your help. I will definitely repay your Xuanyuan Clan for handing over the Xuanyuan Sword to me."

Xuanyuan Ling stared at Ye Guan, and her lips moved as if she wanted to say something, but she remained silent in the end.

Ye Guan suddenly whipped out a storage ring and handed it over to Xuanyuan Ling, saying, "Miss Ling, this storage ring contains a ton of spiritual cores, and they should be enough for you to cultivate for at least a hundred years.

"With your talent, coupled with the cultivation technique I gave you, it won't be difficult for you to travel beyond the Milky Way. I hope we'll meet again someday. Until then, take care."

Ye Guan turned around after saying his piece. Then, he jumped onto Xuanyuan and turned into a streak of sword light that disappeared into the distant horizon.

Left all alone, Xuanyuan Ling could only stare at the horizon in a daze.

...

The excited and overjoyed Ye Guan made a beeline for Yanjing. His father had lifted the seal on his cultivation base, so how could he not be excited? It felt great to have access to his true cultivation base; he could finally fly for as long as he wanted!

Ye Guan soon arrived at Cizhen's residence and found that Mu Wanyu had long departed. Meanwhile, Cizhen was still busy writing on her desk.

Cizhen looked up at Ye Guan and smiled. "You've been unsealed?"

Ye Guan grinned. "Yes."

Cizhen nodded and looked back down at the piece of paper on her desk. Ye Guan approached Cizhen and said, "I'll help you proofread it as always."

Cizhen glanced at Ye Guan and smiled. "Sure."

Just like that, Cizhen wrote while Ye Guan proofread. Ye Guan's expression turned serious as he read more and more pages of the story. The story was coming to an end, and the realization made Ye Guan look at Cizhen beside him.

However, Ye Guan didn't say a word, fearing that any noise might distract Cizhen.

Cizhen wrote until late into the night. Eventually, Cizhen put down her pen and stretched, revealing her perfect figure, which made Ye Guan unconsciously glance at her a few times.

Cizhen turned to Ye Guan and smiled. "I'm going to take a shower."

Ye Guan nodded. "Sure."

Cizhen blinked. "Wanna join?"

Ye Guan was stunned. He hesitated briefly before asking, "Actually, I'm feeling a bit dirty today, so I want to take a shower as well.

"Indeed, you must be feeling dirty." Cizhen rolled her eyes at him and teased, "I can see it from your thoughts."

Cizhen didn't even wait for Ye Guan's reply as she stood up and left for the bathroom.

Ye Guan was in a dilemma. Should I follow her into the bathroom?

However, Ye Guan's hesitation didn't last for long as he started walking toward the bathroom. I'd just be a beast in the worst-case scenario. I can't possibly be even worse than that!

Ye Guan soon arrived at the entrance to the bathroom, but Cizhen suddenly walked out of the bathroom.

Ye Guan was stunned upon seeing that she was clad in a bathrobe.

"I'm done," Cizhen said, smiling.

What? Ye Guan was utterly confused.

Cizhen blinked and said, "You can go ahead and shower."

Ye Guan was speechless. Sister Zhen, what are you doing? Can a person really shower that fast?

Seeing Ye Guan's gloomy look, Cizhen reached out her hand and flicked Ye Guan's forehead with her fingers, saying, "Brat, did you really want to shower with me? You know I'm Little Jing and Little Shu's older sister, right?"

Cizhen revealed a mysterious smile and stepped forward. Then, she leaned closer to Ye Guan's ear and whispered, "What? Do you want all four of us to mess up the bed together?"

An indescribable fire burst up within Ye Guan, and he instantly felt hot. Ye Guan tried to hug Cizhen, but she sidestepped his arms and smiled. "Go in and shower."

Cizhen then turned around and headed for the bedroom without waiting for Ye Guan's reply.

Ye Guan shook his head and chuckled. Sister Zhen had made a fool of him once again.

Ye Guan entered the bathroom and took a cold shower for more than ten minutes to suppress the conflagration deep inside of him.

After the bath, Ye Guan made a beeline for the bedroom and rolled on the bed. He hugged Cizhen from behind, whispering, "Sister Zhen, are you really going to leave once you're finished with your book?"

Cizhen felt an all-encompassing warmth as Ye Guan's large frame enveloped her from behind. Cizhen blushed slightly, but she didn't resist. Instead, she held Ye Guan's slightly restless hand and whispered, "Yes."

Ye Guan asked, "Are you going to come back?"

Cizhen merely smiled.

Ye Guan went silent and savored Cizhen's distinct fragrance, which was a mixture of soap and her natural body odor.

Cizhen suddenly said, "Next time, let's have a meal together, okay?"

Ye Guan asked, "With Little Shu and Cirou?"

Cizhen nodded.

Ye Guan asked, "They know that I'm here, right?"

Cizhen asked, "How did you know?"

"They came here to find you, and there's no way they'll fail to find you," Ye Guan replied.

"Smart," Cizhen said, smiling.

"Is Little Jing—"

Cizhen interrupted, "I'm around, so she's going to be fine."

Ye Guan nodded."Okay."

Cizhen closed her eyes and said, "Let's go sleep."

Ye Guan hesitated briefly before saying, "I can't sleep." contemporary romance

Cizhen advised, "Stop overthinking."

Ye Guan smiled bitterly. He didn't want to overthink, but the Mad Demon Bloodline was running rampant, filling him up with impure thoughts.

This bloodline is really going to be the end of me. Ye Guan lampooned inwardly. He could still remember living life as a decent and pure man back when the Mad Demon Bloodline inside of him had yet to awaken.

Ye Guan still had vivid memories of his interactions with women at the time, and even though they were all based on emotions, every single interaction was within the bounds of propriety and decency.

However, his thoughts had become increasingly impure since the Mad Demon Bloodline inside of him had awakened, and it would often steer him in an inappropriate direction.

Mad Demon Bloodline. "???"

After a while, Ye Guan called out, "Sister Zhen?"

Cizhen didn't respond.

"I know you're still awake." Ye Guan pointed out.

Cizhen suddenly turned and faced Ye Guan. She stared right into his fiery eyes, and the corners of her lips curled up into a smile. "Are you thinking of messing up the bed with me?"

An indescribable conflagration erupted inside Ye Guan once again. It had come back with vengeance, and Ye Guan could no longer suppress it.

Ye Guan gulped while staring intently at Cizhen. His mouth fluttered open, about to speak, but Cizhen leaned over to him and nibbled his ear lightly, whispering, "I'm naked underneath..."

Ye Guan was flabbergasted.
