I Have A Sword

Chapter 1042: Sister Zhen

Chapter 1042: Sister Zhen

A lady was silently reviewing some court documents inside the True God Hall somewhere within the True Universe. She was wearing a light yellow long dress and had an elegant and refined appearance, with a quiet and gentle demeanor.

She was none other than Cirou.

Nowadays, she was the one handling the majority of the True Universe's affairs.

With the joint efforts of her and the Guanxuan Committee, the True Universe and the Guanxuan Universe had truly become one. Of course, the True Universe had a high degree of autonomy.

A lady dressed in white slowly entered the hall. She was graceful and dignified, with an unrivaled beauty, and her belly was bulging slightly. She was Cishu!

Cishu walked up to Cirou with a smile and asked, "Have you heard?"

Cirou replied, "Heard what?"

"He's back," Cishu said.

Cirou's expression remained unchanged. "Oh."

"Pfft!" Cishu chuckled. "What's with that reaction?"

Cirou replied indifferently, "He's back, so what? What's the big deal?"

"Really?" Cishu revealed a teasing smile.

"I'm not like you, who can't survive without a man." Cirou scoffed.

"Well, I heard he has already left," Cishu said.

"Already?" Cirou asked.

Cishu nodded.

Cirou sneered, "Scoundrel. He's a scoundrel."

"Hahaha!" Cishu laughed.

Cirou put down the brush she was holding and stood up. Then, she placed her hand on Cishu's belly and said, "Your father is a scoundrel, all right? Remember—your father is a scoundrel."

Cishu shook her head with a smile.

"Who's badmouthing me?" A voice echoed from outside the hall.

The two ladies froze.

Someone walked into the hall; it was Ye Guan.

When Cishu saw him, a soft and tender light appeared in her eyes. Cirou, on the other hand, sneered, "Little Pagoda, are you there? Come out here, now."

Little Pagoda was confused as to why he was being targeted.

Ye Guan and Cishu exchanged smiles. Ye Guan took her hand, and they walked together toward Cirou. He smiled warmly at her and said, "Little Rou, long time no see."

Cirou responded coolly, "You two have a good chat."

Then, she turned around and left.

Ye Guan grabbed her hand and said, "Since we're all together, let's chat for a bit."

Cirou tried to pull away, but she couldn't. She glared at Ye Guan, thinking, It's not that I didn't resist; he's just too strong for me to resist.

Cirou sighed, deciding to let it go out of respect for Little Pagoda.

Moments later, Ye Guan, Cirou, and Cishu found themselves somewhere in the starry sky, where Ye Guan began roasting a lamb.

As they ate, Ye Guan recounted his experience. The two ladies were particularly interested in hearing about the advanced civilizations. When they learned that the Gui Zhe Civilization was essentially rearing all civilizations lower than Tier Six, they were both shocked beyond stupefaction.

Cirou said solemnly, "So we've been under the watch of certain civilizations all this time? Actually, Big Sister once mentioned something like this, but we all thought she was joking."

Ye Guan was surprised. "Sister Zhen said that before?"

"Yes." Cirou nodded. "But at that time, we all thought she was kidding, as she said it so casually. We didn't take her seriously."

Ye Guan fell silent. He had underestimated Sister Zhen's capabilities once again.

Cishu smiled and asked, "Once Big Sister is back, how about we visit the Milky Way?"

"Sure!" Ye Guan said.

He had always wanted to go back to the Milky Way.

They didn't do anything else and just sat together quietly, talking in the starry sky. They cherished the warmth of the moment.

Most of the time, it was Ye Guan talking and Cishu listening. She was not that curious about other civilizations, but she was very interested in what he had gone through.

Cishu asked softly, "It must have been tough."

Ye Guan was taken aback. "Actually, it wasn't too bad. Sometimes, there are people who carry the burdens for me."

It wasn't that he didn't want to, but sometimes, the burden was just too heavy for him to carry alone. He looked into the depths of the starry sky and softly said, "I've decided. Once we rescue Big Sister and establish an order, I'm going to retire to the Milky Way. I'll be the big boss of the Milky Way, hahaha!"

Cishu smiled softly and said, "Sure."

***

The next day, Ye Guan arrived at the True God Hall. Cirou was still busy with her work, so although she sensed his presence, she did not look up and continued reading through her documents.

Ye Guan said, "I thought about it and decided I should say goodbye. Until we meet again, Cirou."

With that, he turned and flew away, disappearing into the depths of the starry skies.

Cirou paused. After a while, she looked out at the starry sky with a smile before resuming her work.

***

Ye Guan arrived at the Tribulation World, but he did not go too deep. Instead, he stood at a distance and gazed quietly at it. He could sense a familiar presence in the depths of the Tribulation World.

Sister Zhen... Ye Guan simply stood quietly.

Little Pagoda asked, "Not going to meet her?"

Ye Guan shook his head before walking away.

Little Pagoda asked again, "Why not?"

Ye Guan said, "I'm too weak. There's no point in meeting her right now."

Ye Guan's face became solemn. He realized that the tribulation lightning within Tribulation World had grown at least ten times stronger than before. The Evil Dao was still getting stronger.

He turned back one last time to take a good look at the Tribulation World. Then, he transformed into a streak of sword light that vanished into the depths of the starry sky.

A few minutes after Ye Guan's departure, something trembled in the depths of the Tribulation World.

***

After leaving the Tribulation World, Ye Guan arrived in a vast stretch of the starry sky. He looked into the depths of the starry skies and asked, "Master Pagoda, what do you think? Has the Devourer Civilization arrived yet?"

Little Pagoda replied, "It's about time."

Ye Guan smiled faintly.

Little Pagoda asked, "What are you planning to do?"

Ye Guan didn't answer. Instead, he took out the token that he had received from Yama Dharmaraja. He infused his spiritual energy into it, activating the token.

Little Pagoda was a little surprised. "What are you doing?"

Ye Guan replied, "I'm taking the initiative to go to a Tier Six Civilization."

Boom!

Just then, a massive vortex appeared in the distance. Moments later, Yama Dharmaraja emerged from it and said, "Young Master Ye, we meet again."

Ye Guan smiled back. "Senior, I want to go to the Gui Zhe Civilization."

Yama Dharmaraja was momentarily taken aback, but then he grinned and said, "Give me a moment. I'm away, but I will send someone to fetch you right away..."

Yama Dharmaraja's face changed drastically, seemingly sensing something.
