I Have a Sword

Chapter 1014: Living Is Very Exhausting

Fu Wu protected Ye Guan behind her, taking the brunt of the attack by herself.

They tumbled backward for tens of thousands of meters away before finally coming to a stop. The moment they stopped, Fu Wu felt a sour taste in her throat, and blood trickled down her lips.

Ignoring her own injuries, she unleashed her sword intent to protect Ye Guan behind her. At the same time, she gripped her sword in one hand and slashed forward.

Fu Wu's sword light curved like a crescent moon.

Boom!

The burning Evil Characters and the waves of Evil Blood in front of her were forced back by that slash. They were powerful, but they were afraid of Fu Wu's terrifying sword, reluctant to get too close to it.

After ensuring that Ye Guan was unharmed, Fu Wu looked up into the distance.

Standing tens of thousands of meters away was an elderly man dressed in a broad black robe. The old man's expression was fierce, and his eyes were sharp. A massive and thick broadsword was on his back. The broadsword was so big that it was bigger than his body, and it emanated an oppressive aura.

Fu Wu's gaze lingered on the broadsword. She opened her left hand, and her sword intent materialized, forming layers of shields around Ye Guan. She feared that the Evil Spirit God might attempt to extract Ye Guan's blood again while she was distracted.

The Evil Spirit God frowned deeply when she saw the old man.

"Holy King Hong, what are you doing here?" she asked, clearly irritated.

The old man calmly replied, "Spirit God, I know you want the three unique bloodlines in Ye Guan. Those can be yours, but the tiny pagoda and the sword on him must go to the Great Sorcerer Clan. As for the divine artifacts of the Tianxing Civilization, we'll divide them as we had originally agreed."

The Evil Spirit God stared at the old man without saying anything.

The old man showed no fear and asked, "It's fair, isn't it?"

The Evil Spirit God withdrew her gaze and looked at Fu Wu and Ye Guan in the distance.

"Fine."

The old man glanced at her and said, "Pleasure doing business with you."

With that, he took a step forward, and his broadsword appeared above Fu Wu's head before crashing down. As it descended, a powerful force swept across the area, forcing even the surrounding Evil Characters and the Evil Blood to retreat.

Facing the terrifying strike, Fu Wu remained expressionless and thrust her sword forward.

Boom!

A kaleidoscope of sword lights erupted, and Holy King Hong was forced back a thousand meters away along with his broadsword. An invisible force rippled throughout the battlefield, and the spacetime trembled violently.

After stopping, Holy King Hong glanced at his arm and saw that it had cracked open. He looked at Fu Wu in the distance and laughed. "As expected of a Chief Enforcement Officer of the Tianxing Civilization.

"I'll admit it—if it weren't for the Tianxing Civilization's internal strife, even our Great Sorcerer Clan and the Evil Dao Alliance combined wouldn't be able to take you down."

The Tianxing Civilization was a peak Tier Five Civilization, and in an even fight, no Tier Five Civilization was a match for them. Hearing Holy King Hong's words, Fu Wu's eyes darkened, but she remained silent.

Holy King Hong turned to the Evil Spirit God and said, "Spirit God, at this point, there's no need to discuss honor among cultivators, right?"

He was clearly dissatisfied with her for just standing by and not helping. He also knew that he was too weak to kill Fu Wu by himself, even though she wasn't in her peak condition.

Upon hearing his words, the Evil Spirit God glanced at him indifferently and was about to respond when Fu Wu disappeared from her spot in the distance.

Holy King Hong's face instantly changed. He swung his broadsword to block her attack.

Bam!

Holy King Hong was blasted away after just a single attack from Fu Wu. However, Fu Wu didn't chase after him. Instead, her figure disappeared, and she returned to Ye Guan's side.

Just as she reached Ye Guan, a stream of Evil Blood shot toward them, targeting the unconscious Ye Guan on the ground.

A cold glint flashed in Fu Wu's eyes as she swung her sword downward.

Bam!

The stream of Evil Blood was immediately knocked away. But at that moment, Holy King Hong charged forward. He gripped his broadsword with both hands and smashed it down at Fu Wu.

Streams of Evil Blood boiled and became a colossal tidal wave at least a kilometer in height.

Fu Wu remained expressionless at the sight. Raising her hand, she slashed out with her sword.

It was just an ordinary slash!

Bam!

Despite that, Holy King Hong was blasted away with his broadsword. Just then, a wave of blood swept across the battlefield, reaching Fu Wu in the blink of an eye.

Fu Wu thrust her sword forward.

Boom!

Fu Wu's sword light erupted into a radiant blast, destroying the wave of blood. Holy King Hong took this opportunity to charge at Fu Wu, roaring as he swung his broadsword down.

Fu Wu flicked her left sleeve, and Holy King Hong was blasted away.

Holy King Hong's eyes widened in disbelief. Am I really this weak?

The Evil Spirit God glanced at him with a frown, clearly unimpressed. This guy looked tough when he showed up, but to think that he would be so useless?

Even Holy King Hong questioned his abilities. He thought he was on the same level as Fu Wu and the Evil Spirit God, perhaps even a bit stronger than them, but it was clearly not the case.

Fu Wu was far more powerful than he had expected.

Holy King Hong hesitated. He glanced at Ye Guan, who was sprawled out on the ground, and said, "Hold her back. I'll finish that one off first."

Holy King Hong was about to strike, but he hesitated again and glanced at the Evil Spirit God.

A flicker of disdain crossed Evil Spirit God's eyes. She held little respect for some members of the Wujian Universe's Great Sorcerer Clan, but for the sake of the bigger picture, she had no choice but to cooperate with them.

She flicked her sleeve, and terrifying blood pillars erupted from the surrounding Evil Characters, shooting toward Fu Wu.

Since the Evil Spirit God had already made her move, Holy King Hong finally bolted toward Ye Guan.

Fu Wu frowned deeply. She stepped forward and slashed out fiercely.

Boom!

The attack stopped the blood pillars in their tracks, but Holy King Hong had already reached Ye Guan, and he swung his massive broadsword down.

Just as the sword was about to crush Ye Guan into a pancake, he suddenly opened his eyes.

Holy King Hong froze.

Ye Guan thrust the Qingxuan Sword toward Holy King Hong.

Crack!

The broadsword in Holy King Hong's hand shattered upon impact with the Qingxuan Sword, but Ye Guan was sent flying, tumbling far away before crashing hard onto the ground. He coughed up a mouthful of blood and cursed, "Damn it—"

He passed out before he could finish his sentence.

He was already severely injured, and he had barely recovered. As soon as he woke up, he was met with an attack from an old man with a broadsword. Left with no choice, he was forced to defend himself.

In his current state, how could he possibly withstand Holy King Hong's attack?

Though the blow did not shatter his sword intent and fleshly body, his soul couldn't handle it, becoming illusory. It became similar to smoke and was on the verge of complete annihilation.

The Qingxuan Sword transformed into a beam of sword light that melted his forehead, and it frantically repaired Ye Guan's soul.

Meanwhile, Holy King Hong was both shocked and excited. He was shocked by the terrifying power of Ye Guan's sword, which could shatter even his broadsword, and he was thrilled because that sword would soon be his.

Seeing that Ye Guan had passed out again, Holy King Hong charged at the former in a hurry.

Fu Wu shattered the blood pillar before her and charged at Holy King Hong with a beam of sword light in hand.

Bam!

Holy King Hong was struck, and he was forced to retreat nearly a thousand meters away. Fu Wu didn't chase him. Instead, she stood in front of Ye Guan.

Holy King Hong looked down at his chest and saw a deep sword wound. His face became filled with shock before becoming solemn.

The Evil Spirit God was just about to make a move when she sensed something unusual and frowned. Then, she stared intensely at Fu Wu and remarked, "You've been holding back."

She's been holding back? Holy King Hong froze in disbelief. She's been holding back all this while?

A vicious glint flashed in Fu Wu's eyes. She clasped her hands together, and her sword intent materialized in her palms. The next moment, she stepped forward and slashed powerfully with both hands, shouting, "Break!"

Swoosh!

The slash ripped open a long tear in the Book of Evil's world, but blood spilled out of Fu Wu's mouth. Without hesitation, she turned around and grabbed Ye Guan from the ground before escaping the world within the Book of Evil.

The Evil Spirit God's expression darkened, but she immediately gave chase.

Outside, Fu Wu's figure flashed as she traversed through millions of star fields in the blink of an eye. Blood was flowing down the corner of her lips, but she ignored her injuries and focused only on one goal.

She had to bring Ye Guan back to the Tianxing Civilization and hand him over to Jing Chu.

Rumble!

The spacetime around Fu Wu became blurry. Her face darkened, and with a swift sword slash, she tore through the distorted space, but a withered hand burst out from the rift in front of her.

Fu Wu's eyes narrowed slightly. She pulled Ye Guan behind her with her left hand while blocking with her sword in her right hand.

Bam!

Fu Wu's sword light shattered, and she was blasted nearly ten thousand meters away along with Ye Guan.

Rumble!

Rumbling noises echoed as multiple spacetime rifts manifested.

The Evil Spirit God stepped out from one of them with the Book of Evil in hand, and she was followed by five powerful figures—Holy King Zhu, Holy King Hong, Holy King Zong, the Grand Sect Master, and Wu Yi!

There was an avatar among them; they were clearly the owner of the withered hand.

Fu Wu wiped away the blood from the corner of her mouth and slowly raised her head to face the group of powerful enemies led by the Evil Spirit God. Without any words, she ignited her fleshly body and soul once again, causing her aura to skyrocket.

The Evil Spirit God frowned deeply, and the gazes of the Holy Kings became solemn. They couldn't deny that they feared Fu Wu. If she were at her peak, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Fu Wu pulled Ye Guan up with her left hand and wrapped her arm around his waist. In the next instant, she transformed into a beam of sword light and vanished from the spot!

The faces of the Evil Spirit God and the rest changed immediately.

The surrounding star field boiled and was subsequently annihilated. The avatar stepped forward and extended its withered hand, gently pressing it down.

Bam!

The sword light was immobilized.

Fu Wu roared and twisted her right hand before slashing out with her sword.

Boom!

The avatar was blasted nearly a thousand meters away.

However, the Evil Spirit God and the others were already nearby.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Deafening explosions echoed all over the place as Fu Wu's sword lights shattered one after another. Despite being on the winning side, the Evil Spirit God and the rest were forced to retreat.

Rumble!

A sword light tore through spacetime and disappeared into the distant star field.

The avatar was about to give chase when the Evil Spirit God said, "She won't survive."

The others looked at her and noticed that the Book of Evil in her hand had vanished. The Evil Spirit God coldly spat, "Prepare yourselves. We'll destroy the Tianxing Civilization and kill Ye Guan."

***

Fu Wu supported Ye Guan when they arrived at the entrance to the Tianxing Civilization. Instead of taking him inside, she placed him gently on the ground.

Then, she placed her right hand on his chest, and a gentle wave of energy flowed into him.

After a few moments, Ye Guan opened his eyes.

Fu Wu saw that and asked, "You're finally awake?"

Ye Guan was startled. "Senior?"

He tried to sit up, but he could not muster any strength at all.

"Have you been to the Milky Way before?" Fu Wu asked.

"How did you know, Senior?"

"Yi Nian told me."

Just as Ye Guan was about to speak, he noticed something off about Fu Wu. Before he could ask any more questions, Fu Wu said, "I have two requests. Will you fulfill them for me?"

Ye Guan's voice was heavy with concern as he replied, "Senior…"

Fu Wu smiled. "Yi Nian calls me Sister Fu. You can call me that, too."

"Sister Fu…"

"When I entered that tiny pagoda, I realized that the only one who can save the Tianxing Civilization is you. That's my first request—" Fu Wu's throat tightened, and she coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Ye Guan was shocked, and he quickly forced himself up.

"Senior?" he asked in a trembling voice.

Fu Wu shook her head and added, "Secondly, I've always wanted to visit the Milky Way, but I never had the time. I hope that you'll take my seed to the Milky Way and bury me there once you have the time in the future."

"Don't place my seed into the Reincarnation Ancestral Stone. Living… is so exhausting… it's very exhausting…"
