Chapter 290: Your Yang Family Bloodline Will Be Ours
Heaven Seizing Bloodline!
The cultivators of the Heaven Seizing Clan rapidly retreated from the battlefield with grim expressions.
The Heaven Seizing Bloodline was running through their veins, but one also had to consider the difference in strength between their bloodline power and the fact that the bloodline's suppressive power on those with the same bloodline as them was stronger compared to when the bloodline power was used against outsiders.
The Heaven Seizing Bloodline was extremely powerful, and it charged toward Ye Guan as soon as it appeared. Clearly, it had sensed the Mad Demon Bloodline coursing through Ye Guan's veins.
Sensing the immense power from the Heaven Seizing Bloodline, Ye Guan squinted. He didn't underestimate the domineering force of the Heaven Seizing Bloodline. After all, Heaven Seizing Clan was once an existence that could match up to the True Universe.
Ye Guan's blood suddenly started boiling.
The intense power of the Mad Demon Bloodline surged out of Ye Guan and pierced the heavens. The spacetime around Ye Guan transformed into a sea of blood, and a sinister, dense killing intent wafted out of the sea of blood.
The Great Sovereign and his Heaven Seizing Bloodline were stopped by Ye Guan’s bloodline power.
The Mad Demon Bloodline!
Everyone cast shocked gazes upon Ye Guan, whose skin had become the same color as blood. They had heard of Guanxuan Universe’s Mad Demon Bloodline, but they had never seen it in action, which was why they had never seen it as a threat.
However, the members of the Heaven Seizing Clan realized just then that they had been severely underestimating the Mad Demon Bloodline.
The Great Sovereign was shocked as well. He never thought that Ye Guan’s Mad Demon Bloodline could even stand up against his Heaven Seizing Bloodline.
After the initial shock, the Great Sovereign grew excited at the prospect of battling another bloodline that could match up to the Heaven Seizing Bloodline. Devouring Ye Guan's bloodline meant his bloodline would undergo a qualitative change.
Greed and excitement burned fiercely in the Great Sovereign’s eyes, and he didn't even bother hiding his desire to seize Ye Guan's bloodline for himself.
However, the Great Sovereign's surprise didn't end there as Ye Guan's Mad Demon Bloodline surged crazily in power and suppressed the Heaven Seizing Bloodline.
The members of the Heaven Seizing Clan were dumbfounded at the sight.
Did he just suppress our Heaven Seizing Bloodline? They stared at Ye Guan with solemn looks. It was the first time they felt such a powerful suppression of their bloodline.
Meanwhile, the Great Sovereign's shock was soon replaced by delight. It turned out that the quality of Ye Guan’s Mad Demon Bloodline was higher than he initially expected—no, Ye Guan's bloodline was a top-quality product!
The Great Sovereign started wondering as to how many Yang Family members were still alive in the Guanxuan Universe. It would be great if there were many of them, as the Heaven Seizing Universe would grow immensely if they managed to seize the bloodline of every Yang Family member out there.
Just then, a Heaven Seizing Clan member cried out, “Goodness! The Mad Demon Bloodline is devouring the Heaven Seizing Bloodline!”
The Great Sovereign turned to look and saw the Mad Demon Bloodline slowly devouring the Heaven Seizing Bloodline. The Great Sovereign's eyes narrowed, and he rushed toward Ye Gun with a punch.
How horrifying was a Great Sovereign’s punch?
The remnant energy of the punch was enough to shatter the spacetime even more than ten kilometers away from it. Ye Guan could already feel the suffocating pressure that was wafting off the fist as it made a beeline for him, even though it was still quite distant.
Alarm bells rang in Ye Guan's mind. The Mad Demon Bloodline had awakened by itself rather than through stimulation, so the Mad Demon Bloodline didn't increase Ye Guan's strength.
Fight your fight, and I'll fight mine!
The Mad Demon Bloodline was still apprehensive of the Path Sword.
Back then, the Path Sword had almost obliterated it with just one swing.
Facing the overwhelming power of the oncoming fist, Ye Guan stepped out and thrust his sword. He had decided to fight the Great Sovereign with the Path Sword in hand. Of course, he wouldn't shy from using the Path Sword!
Ye Guan was blasted at least a kilometer away upon impact.
The Great Sovereign's expression changed drastically, and he retreated like lightning toward his initial location. He looked down at his left hand and found that it was a mangled mess. He couldn't use it anymore, which meant that he had lost two arms in just two sword moves!
Fear filled the Great Sovereign’s eyes. Ye Guan was realms lower than him, and he was a Great Sovereign as well—a supreme elite. Despite that, a young man whose cultivation base wasn't even as high as a Divine Sovereign had managed to cripple his arms.
This is absurd! The Great Sovereign was stupefied. His eyes fell on the Path Sword in Ye Guan's hand. He knew that Ye Guan possessed a divine sword, but he didn't expect it to be so powerful. His physique as a Great Sovereign actually felt like it didn't exist before the Path Sword.
The rest of the Heaven Seizing Clan's cultivators were surprised as well. Clearly, they hadn't anticipated that Ye Guan could cripple the arms of their Great Sovereign, despite the significant difference in realms.
This was just unbelievable! The sword wasn't just powerful—it was overpowered!
Unfortunately, Ye Guan sustained severe injuries in the collision just now. He had crippled his opponent's arms, but the remnant energies of the fist still managed to hit him, causing severe internal injuries.
It was a close call, but he got out of it with just severe injuries.
Ye Guan took a deep breath. He was aware of the huge chasm between him and the Great Sovereign. If it weren't for the Path Sword, there was no way he would have stood a chance against a Great Sovereign, considering his current cultivation realm.
I have to work even harder! Ye Guan opened his left palm, and green light orbs manifested around him. The lights converged on him, and his injuries started healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
“The Divine Tree of Nature!” the Great Sovereign exclaimed. He glared at Ye Guan and shouted, “You have Sovereign Qing’s Divine Tree of Nature?!”
Ye Guan closed his eyes, and he smiled upon sensing his rate of recovery. The Divine Tree of Nature was truly incredible. It was so much more effective than any spiritual pill he had ever consumed. It hadn't even been ten seconds since he activated its ability, but Ye Guan had more or less healed from his injuries.
Its effectiveness was horrifying.
The Great Sovereign's eyes flashed in undisguised greed as he stared at Ye Guan. He had to admit that Ye Guan was indeed a genius capable of defeating every single member of the True Universe's younger generation.
And it was exactly because of that fact that he couldn't let Ye Guan live!
The Great Sovereign stepped forward, and the spacetime in front of him burst into a mighty conflagration. Ye Guan didn't back down. He stomped with his right foot and turned into a beam of sword light that rushed toward the Great Sovereign.
His sword was invincible, and everything in its way was mercilessly torn apart!
Ye Guan’s sword destroyed the Great Sovereign's attacks as he made a beeline for the latter. All of a sudden, Ye Guan was struck by a sense of foreboding. Realizing that something was amiss, he stopped and turned around to swing his sword.
His sword carved a beautiful arc.
The sword light shattered, and Ye Guan was forced to retreat several kilometers away.
Upon making sure that he was a safe distance away, Ye Guan looked up and was startled to find another Great Sovereign standing right in front of him.
A black-robed old man wielding a scythe abruptly appeared in front of Ye Guan. He stepped forward, and a crimson light bedazzled everyone.
The second Great Sovereign was sent flying away.
Meanwhile, Ye Guan's eyes fell on the scythe-wielding black-robed old man, and he quickly recognized the latter. He was none other than Zong Lao—the one and only Great Sovereign among the group of mysterious cultivators Qin Guan had left behind.
The rest of the cultivators in that group were only Divine Sovereigns[1].
Ye Guan's eyes fell on the second Great Sovereign and found that they were a woman clad in a black dress. She was beautiful, but her demeanor was beyond icy. She glared coldly at Zong Lao with a trace of dissatisfaction in her eyes.
She vanished without a word, and Zong Lao disappeared as well.
A crimson scythe light fleeted across the battlefield.
The woman clad in a black dress staggered backward, and a solemn look suffused her icy demeanor.
Zong Lao didn't chase her. He retreated to Ye Guan's side and bowed. "Young Master."
Ye Guan nodded in acknowledgment. He was about to speak when he noticed something, prompting him to turn around. No, it wasn't just him. Everyone's eyes were on Little White.
Everyone's attention had been on Ye Guan, and they had forgotten about Little White's existence until they realized that Little White had sucked the entire Heaven Seizing Universe dry of spiritual energy!
Little White hopped onto Ye Guan's shoulder and grinned at Ye Guan.
Ye Guan was shocked. Little White wasn't good at fighting, but he resolved to bring her with him the next time he visited the True Universe. He was going to let her devour the True Universe's spiritual energy.
The members and cultivators of the Heaven Seizing Clan were horrified; their faces turned ugly at the harsh reality before them. What would happen to a universe if it were to run out of spiritual energy?
It meant that the entire universe would become useless!
The Great Sovereign glared at Little White and shouted, “Catch her!”
The entire Heaven Seizing Clan would become a laughingstock for being the first clan to move out of their universe if they failed to capture Little White—the Spirit Progenitor who had just devoured the Heaven Seizing Universe's spiritual energy.
The members and cultivators of the Heaven Seizing Clan turned into rays of light and rushed toward Little White.
The Great Sovereign’s voice boomed as he roared, “I want her alive!”
Zong Lao pulled Ye Guan behind him.
The surrounding spacetime split open, and thirty scythe-wielding cultivators emerged.
The Great Sovereign’s gaze landed on Ye Guan, and he laughed boisterously as he roared, "The bloodline of your Yang Family will soon be ours!"
With that, he made a beeline for Ye Guan.
1. To clarify, Divine Sovereigns are weaker than Great Sovereigns, so Great Sovereigns are stronger, but they are weaker than Cosmic Spirits. CS > GS > DS. Hope this clears up things ☜
