I Have A Sword-Chapter 1428: I Am Not Human

All the beings in the Genesis Starry Region were in a daze.

What was happening? Billions of beings were bewildered and terrified.

Just then, another stepped out, and the owner of the feet was finally revealed. He was a man clad in a gray brocade robe that was cinched at the waist with a black belt. His eyebrows were well-defined, his eyes were phoenix-like and sharp, while he was strikingly handsome.

An ancient bronze-colored spear was in his hand.

After stepping out, the man seemed as if he had just woken from a long slumber. His eyes were filled with confusion. After a long while, he appeared to recall something, and a look of pain surfaced in his eyes.

"Gone... It's all gone..."

He walked to the stone steps ahead and sat down silently.

Ye Guan shook his head in agony. The attack just now almost knocked him unconscious.

After a moment, his dizziness subsided slightly, and he turned to find Sui Gujin. She was unresponsive. Shocked, Ye Guan hurried over and found that her fleshly body was riddled with cracks. Fresh blood oozed nonstop from her wounds, and her clothes were soaked in blood.

Ye Guan immediately lifted her up and placed his right hand on her abdomen, channeling streams of profound energy into her body. His cultivation wasn't being suppressed. After all, he was no longer cultivating the realms.

Sui Gujin's fleshly body began healing, but she was still asleep.

Ye Guan frowned. "Master Pagoda, what's happening?"

Little Pagoda spoke in a solemn tone. "This girl is too weak. Though I blocked most of the force for her, what was left was still too much for her. Her soul is severely injured."

Ye Guan's expression darkened. He opened his palm, and the Qingxuan Sword appeared. With a single thought, the sword flew into Sui Gujin's body.

With the sword's help, her soul gradually stabilized, and soon, her eyes opened.

Ye Guan smiled. "You're awake?"

Sui Gujin nodded and attempted to rise, but she realized that she had lost all her cultivation base, eliciting a frown to rise unbidden on her lips.

Ye Guan asked, "What's wrong?"

Sui Gujin frowned. "My cultivation base... is gone."

Ye Guan was momentarily stunned before scanning their surroundings. After a moment, his face darkened as he said, "A mysterious Law has engulfed us..."

Sui Gujin looked at him. "Your cultivation is still intact?"

Ye Guan nodded. "Yes."

Doubt flitted across her beautiful eyes.

Ye Guan explained, "Perhaps it's because I don't cultivate in the realms."

"Maybe." Sui Gujin nodded slightly.

Ye Guan glanced at the abyss around them. "We should leave first."

Saying that, he lifted Sui Gujin in his arms. She was slightly uncomfortable, but she said nothing in the end.

Emerging from the depths of the abyss, Ye Guan gazed toward the direction of the bronze palace, but he couldn't see anything. Here, his divine sense was completely useless.

Retracting his gaze, he said, "You should change your clothes first."

Sui Gujin looked at him. "Where?"

Ye Guan replied, "Inside the pagoda."

Sui Gujin shook her head.

Ye Guan chuckled bitterly. "Don't worry, Master Pagoda won't peek."

Despite that, Sui Gujin still shook her head.

Little Pagoda immediately exclaimed, "Big sister, I'm not even human! I'm just a pagoda! Women are like monkeys in my eyes—No, damn it! She's not afraid of me peeking at her; she's afraid of you peeking at her, you damned pervert!"

Ye Guan was speechless.

Sui Gujin turned her gaze to a nearby lake. "I'll go there."

"Alright." Ye Guan nodded and set her down by the lakeside.

Sui Gujin handed him a storage ring.

Ye Guan understood, took it, and with a thought, he retrieved a brand-new green robe from it. He then handed it to her before turning away.

Sui Gujin called out, "Wait."

Ye Guan stopped and looked back.

"Seal your pagoda."

Little Pagoda immediately protested, "What the hell?! Are you seriously insulting a pagoda like this? I'm a pagoda! I AM A pagoda! I'm not human! Why would you be wary of me? You should be wary of this pervert instead!"

Ye Guan immediately sealed the tiny pagoda and said, "Go ahead."

Then, he turned around and left.

Seeing him walk away and disappear beyond a slope, Sui Gujin removed her blood-soaked garments and stepped into the icy lake. Without her cultivation base, she couldn't resist the cold. As she entered the water, she shivered slightly.

Closing her eyes, she sprawled out in the water. The water slowly washed away the blood all over her.

Meanwhile, Ye Guan gazed at the bronze palace and frowned.

With his current strength, even a regular Immortal Emperor Lord was no match for him. Yet, that single spear strike had nearly destroyed his fleshly body. If not for Little Pagoda's protection, he would have been gravely injured or killed.

Ye Guan's eyes became filled with doubt. Who attacked me?

Just then, the man in front of the ancient bronze palace suddenly stood up. He descended the steps, and as soon as he made a move—

Boom!

The heavens and earth trembled violently. The entire secret realm quaked as mountains collapsed. A terrifying aura pervaded the skies as well.

Ye Guan's heart pounded, and then he decisively turned around before making a beeline for Sui Gujin.

Startled by the changes, Sui Gujin stood up.

Ye Guan and Sui Gujin's eyes met in mid-air, and the air between them seemed to freeze at that instant.

Ye Guan was dumbstruck. Sui Gujin's flawless body was fully exposed before him...

She had on not even a single piece of clothing. The sheer visual impact... he struggled to withstand it even with his Dao Heart, and his eyes couldn't help but linger on her figure.

Just then, a cold shiver ran down his spine. Sui Gujin's gaze was as cold as eternal ice. Without thinking, Ye Guan lunged forward, scooped her up, and bolted.

The ground beneath them was collapsing, but flying on his sword was too risky, as releasing any energy could draw that terrifying entity's attention. If another spear were to come flying in, he would surely die.

While he was running, he realized something amiss. His right hand was gripping something soft. It turned out that he was panicking so much that his hand was touching something he wasn't supposed to touch.

He could swear to the heavens that he hadn't done it on purpose!

Without looking, he could feel Sui Gujin's deadly glare.

However, there was no time to care. He could only pretend that nothing was happening. Moving his hand now wouldn't make any difference, so he decided to throw caution to the wind.

Meanwhile, the man continued descending. As he neared the bottom, the palace behind him trembled slightly.

His face changed drastically. He turned around and knelt. He was trembling as he mumbled something under his breath.

The overwhelming presence engulfing the world vanished into thin air. Yet, the billions of beings across the land discovered that their cultivation base had yet to return. freёnovelkiss-com

Sensing the disappearance of the oppressive aura, Ye Guan sighed in relief and stopped running.

Just then, his expression changed drastically. His hand was still holding something soft. The tactile feedback at his fingertips was beyond words. Recalling the earlier scene, his blood surged, and his face became as red as fire.

He suppressed the heat and the lingering thoughts in his mind before placing Sui Gujin down. He looked at her exquisite figure, and the desire he had just suppressed surged once more. An inexplicable heat spread throughout him.

Her exquisite body was truly like a work of art, flawless in every way.

Once again, Ye Guan exerted immense willpower to forcibly suppress the wicked thoughts in his heart. He opened his palm, and a dress appeared in his hand. He draped the dress over Sui Gujin and turned around. "Miss Sui, put this on."

Sui Gujin said nothing and silently put on the dress.

Moments later, the two sat down. Sui Gujin remained expressionless and silent.

Ye Guan was the first to break the silence. "Lady Sui, we were in a desperate situation earlier. I-I truly didn't mean to do that."

Sui Gujin remained silent.

Ye Guan felt a headache coming on. He didn't want a rift to form between them over such a small matter, but he knew that the lady before him was incredibly intelligent. No matter how he explained it, it wouldn't change the fact that he had seen and touched what he wasn't supposed to touch or see.

Sui Gujin looked straight at him without saying anything.

Ye Guan felt a little uncomfortable under her gaze. Just as he was unsure of what to do, Sui Gujin suddenly said, "What happened earlier was unintentional. What about what happened afterward?"

Ye Guan quickly replied, "That wasn't intentional, either. I truly didn't have any time to think earlier, and I'm a swordsman..."

Sui Gujin's gaze grew colder.

Ye Guan hesitated for a moment before saying, "I could have let go later, but I was afraid that you'd overthink it, so..."

Sui Gujin coldly replied, "It's all in the past."

Ye Guan looked at her, but she said nothing more.

Ye Guan went silent as well.

Sui Gujin turned to look in the direction of the bronze palace. "That aura... is it related to the person inside that palace?"

"Yes." Ye Guan nodded. He stared at the palace as well and said, "They're very... strong. Should we leave?"

Sui Gujin nodded.

Just as Ye Guan was about to leave, he thought of something and turned to look at Sui Gujin.

Sui Gujin was still seated.

Ye Guan was slightly surprised, but soon, he noticed that blood was dripping from her feet. She was clearly injured in the lake earlier.

Without saying a word, Ye Guan crouched before her and extended his right hand toward her injured foot. Profound energy surged from his palm, and Sui Gujin's wound quickly healed up.

Sui Gujin glanced at a certain spot in the sky and said, "Let's go to that palace."

Ye Guan was stunned.

Sui Gujin said, "Carry me."

Before Ye Guan could respond, she was already leaning on his back.

Feeling two soft lumps pressing on his back, Ye Guan became a bit flustered.

This damned Mad Demon Bloodline of mine! Ye Guan cursed to himself before carrying Sui Gujin away.
