Chapter 461: A Sword That Reverses Time
The two chatted and laughed as they walked along the shore, creating a warm atmosphere.
The plain-skirt lady held the hand of the man in the white shirt.
"Brother, he\'s here," the plain-skirt lady said.
The man in the white shirt nodded.
Two people were standing behind him—Ye Guan and Ao Qianqian.
The man in the white shirt looked at the plain-skirt lady and said, "If you don\'t want to leave, I will stay here with you."
The plain-skirt lady said, "Brother, how about you accompany me for another lifetime?"
Another lifetime? The man in the white shirt was stunned. Then, he smiled and shook his head, saying, "We can\'t die..."
The plain-skirt lady replied, "I have an idea."
The man in the white shirt reached out to the plain-skirt lady\'s hair and put a strand of her hair behind her ear before asking softly, "Why would you have such an idea?"
"Our fates in our first lifetime did not intertwine, and we were separated by life and death. In our second lifetime, we have had brief reunions, but we were often apart from each other.
"I want to stay close to you in my third lifetime. We can grow together and experience the ups and downs of life together."
The plain-skirt lady then hugged the man in the white shirt and said, "I\'m not going to get greedy; I just want to have one lifetime together with you. Afterward, I\'ll kill the invincible beings of this vast expanse so that the little brat can establish a new order.
"Then, you and I will just become like unassuming boulders in the vast expanse. What do you think?"
"What if you end up forgetting me in your third lifetime?" asked the man in the white shirt.
The plain-skirt lady shook her head and said, "I\'ll recognize you as soon as I see you. It doesn\'t matter even if I reincarnate for a thousand lifetimes."
The man in the white shirt smiled. "That\'s good to hear."
A breathtaking smile tugged at the plain-skirt lady\'s lips.
The man in the white shirt chuckled. Then, he turned around to look at Ye Guan and Ao Qianqian.
"Come here."
Ye Guan pulled Ao Qianqian closer to the two and greeted them, "Father, Aunt."
The plain-skirt lady looked at Ye Guan with a faint smile, not saying a word.
Ao Qianqian bowed slightly and greeted, "Greetings, Sword Master."
The man in the white shirt smiled at Ao Qianqian. "We\'re all family here, so there\'s no need to be so polite."
Family! Ao Qianqian blushed, and her eyes were filled with delight.
The man in the white shirt examined Ye Guan from top to bottom before asking, "You\'re already a Great Time Sovereign?"
"Yes," Ye Guan said, nodding.
The man in the white shirt nodded in approval. "You\'ve profited a lot since you came here."
"Yes, and it\'s all thanks to you sealing my cultivation," Ye Guan said.
The man in the white shirt laughed heartily and asked, "Are you still angry at me?"
Ye Guan shook his head. "No, not really. I know that you had good intentions. You wanted me to experience the mortal life at least once."
A satisfied light flashed across Ye Xuan\'s eyes. "I made a mistake allowing you to inherit the Guanxuan Academy too early. I didn\'t think things through. You\'re not mad at me for that, right?"
Ye Guan pondered briefly before saying, "Well, it\'s not like I can beat you up."
Ye Xuan chuckled. The plain-skirt lady smiled and made a sidelong glance at Ye Guan.
Ye Xuan said, "Come with me for a stroll."
Ye Guan nodded, and the two father-and-son pair walked along the shore.
Meanwhile, Ao Qianqian was instantly nervous upon realizing that she was standing all by herself next to the plain-skirt lady. It couldn\'t be helped; the plain-skirt lady was Plain Skirt Destiny, after all!
The plain-skirt lady looked at Ao Qianqian and smiled. "Call me Aunt."
Ao Qianqian hesitated briefly before carefully muttering, "Aunt..."
The plain-skirt lady smiled and asked, "Do you know what dragon is the strongest and has remained the strongest all these years in this vast expanse?"
Ao Qianqian shook her head.
The plain-skirt lady replied, "There was a dragon called the Ancestral Dragon eight hundred billion years ago. The four major chaotic elements were in the middle of evolution at the time, and the Ancestral Dragon absorbed the Ancestral Origin tainted with such elements at the time, allowing its cultivation base to reach an unimaginable level.
"Would you like to join the Ancestral Dragon\'s lineage?"
Ao Qianqian nodded earnestly without any hesitation. She had no idea what the plain-skirt lady was talking about, but based on the latter\'s description, an Ancestral Dragon had to be incredibly strong.
Moreover, there was no way the plain-skirt lady would offer something mediocre to her.
The plain-skirt lady smiled and looked up. She waved her sleeve, and the Path Sword shot out.
Schwing!
The Time River abruptly manifested along with a massive space filled with nothing but a void.
The void was the vast expanse eight hundred billion years ago. The Path Sword had reversed the flow of time, allowing them to interact with the vast expanse eight hundred billion years ago!
Just then, Ao Qianqian clapped her eyes on an enormous creature. The colossal beast\'s color was pitch-black, and it had antlers like a deer, a head like a cow, a mouth like a donkey, eyes like a prawn, ears like an elephant, scales like a fish, beard like a human, abdomen like a snake, and the feet of a phoenix.
The beast was the epitome of colossal and towering! It seemed like the entire vast expanse couldn\'t contain it, and its head alone spanned millions of kilometers. The colossal beast glided across the starry sky, and the entire vast expanse seemed paltry before it—a true cosmic beast.
Ao Qianqian was overwhelmed by shock. So this is what a dragon looks like—a "true" dragon! In comparison, the Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan—
Ao Qianqian\'s train of thought was interrupted by the Ancestral Dragon opening its eyes. Ao Qianqian felt a shiver down her spine, and her knees bent unconsciously; she was about to prostrate in worship when a gentle sword intent enveloped her, chasing away the primal fear that had enveloped her.
Ao Qianqian cast an incredulous gaze upon the Ancestral Dragon. It would be an insult to compare the mighty and colossal Ancestral Dragon before them to the dragons of the Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan
The Ancestral Dragon\'s gaze fell on the plain-skirt lady, and its eyes were full of disdain as it roared, "How dare you interrupt my slumber?!"
The Ancestral Dragon\'s voice burst out of the Time River and swept across the present-day Milky Way.
The plain-skirt lady didn\'t beat around the bush and waved her sleeve. The Path Sword instantly manifested above the Ancestral Dragon\'s head.
Rumble!
A terrifying sword intent bored down on the Ancestral Dragon, and its eyes narrowed in shock as a sense of trepidation and shock gripped its heart.
The plain-skirt lady looked at the Ancestral Dragon and said, "This is a junior of mine. She wishes to join your lineage. Tell me whether it\'s possible or not."
In contrast to the plain-skirt lady\'s words, the Path Sword dug deeper into the Ancestral Dragon\'s head, rendering it speechless.
Ao Qianqian looked at the plain-skirt lady in awe. My aunt... she\'s so strong!
The Ancestral Dragon stared at the plain-skirt lady and said, "Let\'s be nice and talk about it, all right? I\'m a reasonable dragon, so we can talk about it."
The plain-skirt lady nodded. "It seems that you have less than a hundred years to live. I\'ll borrow ten thousand years of lifespan for you from the Great Dao."
The plain-skirt lady looked up and pointed. The Path Sword responded immediately and tore through the starry sky, creating a massive rift of unknown origin. Moments later, a strand of Ancestral Origin descended and melted into the Ancestral Dragon.
Boom!
A violent tremor ran through the colossal Ancestral Dragon, and a powerful aura surged out of it. At the same time, its lifespan increased rapidly.
Rumble!
A dull rumbling echoed from the starry sky, accompanied by a wave of terrifying pressure. The Ancestral Dragon\'s expression instantly changed upon sensing the pressure. The Great Dao is here! The "true" Great Dao has arrived!
The Ancestral Dragon was in disbelief. If the Great Dao were to make a move against it, it would undoubtedly die. It was a supreme cosmic beast, but it was a mere ant before the Great Dao.
The plain-skirt lady directed a cold gaze at the vast expanse. "Get lost!"
Boom!
The terrifying pressure around the Ancestral Dragon disappeared, and the Ancestral Dragon\'s gaze became fearful as it stared at the plain-skirt lady
Did she just scare off the Great Dao with just two words? This is ridiculous! I\'ve never met someone so ridiculously strong!
After the initial shock had passed, the Ancestral Dragon was overjoyed. It had just discovered that its lifespan had been extended by ten thousand years. It was so happy that it almost swooned.
The Ancestral Dragon\'s initial plan was to sit quietly and wait for its demise in a few hundred years. The True God\'s order did not allow any immortals to exist, which meant every living being in this vast expanse would eventually die.
The Ancestral Dragon was powerful, but its lifespan was finite. However, the Ancestral Dragon felt a bit more hopeful about the future upon receiving a ten-thousand-year extension of its life.
The Ancestral Dragon was extremely grateful, and its eyes were no longer filled with fear as it stared at the plain-skirt lady. However, instead of thanking the plain-skirt lady, it turned to look at Ao Qianqian and raised its claws slightly.
Swoosh!
A golden dragon pill flew out of its claw and melted into Ao Qianqian.
Boom!
Ao Qianqian\'s eyes widened as a terrifying power surged out of her.
Ao Qianqian instantly became a Great Sovereign!
The Ancestral Dragon looked at Ao Qianqian and tried to make its voice softer as it said, "You\'ve just consumed the dragon pill that I painstakingly created myself. It will help you break through the shackles of your own bloodline, and it contains an inheritance, as well as some of the special Dragon Clan killing techniques and protection-type divine skills that I had created. I hope all those will be helpful to you."
Ao Qianqian took a deep breath and bowed respectfully, saying, "Thank you, Senior!"
The Ancestral Dragon smiled slightly and said, "From now on, you\'re a part of the Ancestral Dragon lineage. If you ever come across Time Reversers in the future, you can just say my name. Some of them will surely give you face if you do."
Ao Qianqian bowed again and said, "I understand."
The Ancestral Dragon nodded and looked at the plain-skirt lady once again. The plain-skirt lady did not say anything. Instead, she waved her sleeve and the Time River closed; the massive void vanished as well.
The plain-skirt lady looked at Ao Qianqian.
Ao Qianqian\'s aura was still surging, while the shackles of her bloodline had already fractured.
Ao Qianqian bowed slightly toward the plain-skirt lady. "Thank you, Aunt!"
The plain-skirt lady replied, "Don\'t mention it. Focus on absorbing the dragon pill."
Ao Qianqian nodded and sat down cross-legged. She put all of her focus on assimilating the Ancestral Dragon\'s inheritance as well as absorbing the remnant power of the dragon pill.
The plain-skirt lady turned to Ye Guan and Ye Xuan in the distance.
\\Ye Guan and Ye Xuan were still walking slowly along the shore.
Ye Xuan asked, "Are you really sure?"
Ye Guan nodded. "Yes."
"You will have to go through many hardships."
"Well, I can avoid them right now, but I can\'t keep avoiding them forever, right?"
"I decided to force you into enduring many adversities because I wanted you to become strong. However, it seems that I have made a mistake by making that decision for you. If you don\'t want to have such a tough time, I will help you."
"It\'s my path, and I\'ll walk it on my own," Ye Guan replied after a brief hesitation.
How come he didn\'t choose to live an easy life with the help of his parents and relatives? Ye Guan had chosen not to do so, as he believed that it was a meaningless endeavor—becoming strong was better than relying on others.
Ye Xuan was quiet for a long while before saying, "All right, I understand."
"Father, can you tell me where you\'re going with Aunt?" Ye Guan asked.
Ye Xuan\'s mouth fluttered open to say something, but something up above caught his attention, prompting him to look up. "He\'s here."
Ye Guan looked up and saw the Eternal Sovereign.
The Eternal Sovereign was here!
