I Have a Sword

Cui Yin didn't immediately lead his people to the Tianxing Sea. Instead, he returned to the Tianxing Civilization. Through his deliberate orchestration, news of Yi Nian eloping with a man from another civilization spread like wildfire throughout the Tianxing Civilization.

If it were an elopement between members of their own civilization, it wouldn't be a big deal, and many would give their blessings. However, there was an outsider involved, so it was an utter disgrace!

The people of the Tianxing Civilization felt embarrassed. They had always been prideful of their own. In their eyes, the Tianxing Civilization was the strongest civilization in the vast expanse, and all other civilizations were inferior.

For a woman from the Tianxing Civilization to fall in love with someone from a low-tier civilization was considered the ultimate disgrace. And for them to elope at that—it was an utter embarrassment.

The men of the Tianxing Civilization flew into a rage. "Does the Tianxing Civilization lack men for our women to fall in love with? How could she fall for a lowly ant from some low-tier civilization?!"

In their eyes, every other civilization out there was full of nothing but ants.

Amidst the public outrage, a rumor surfaced—Yi Nian and Ye Guan were hiding in the Tianxing Sea. Under the leadership of Justice Officer Cui Yin, the citizens of the Tianxing Civilization headed straight for the Tianxing Sea.

They were an overwhelming and furious army!

High Goddess Tianyun looked up from her book.

"Teacher!" Jing An exclaimed, "They're going after Yi Nian."

High Goddess Tianyun frowned.

Ye Guan was seated cross-legged in the unique world inside the Spacetime Reincarnation Box. His hands were resting in front of his abdomen, and countless memories flashed through his mind like lightning bolts.

Although only two days had passed outside, Ye Guan had already spent twenty years in this unique world. Over the course of those two decades, he had cultivated peacefully, experiencing the lives of dozens of High Gods and High Goddesses.

The cultivation methods of the Tianxing Civilization were different from the Guanxuan Universe, but all Daos led to the same destination, so Ye Guan had no issues drawing Ye Guan upon the cultivation methods of the Tianxing Civilization to become even stronger.

Learning from all sources! In this unique world, it wasn't just about enlightenment; it was also about battle. In every reincarnation, Ye Guan would engage in combat, honing his swordsmanship and mental state through continuous battles.

Ye Guan improved by leaps and bounds. It was as if he had received guidance from every High God and High Goddesses. This unique method of cultivation left Ye Guan astounded.

When combined with the tiny pagoda, it'd be weird if Ye Guan's improvement weren't by leaps and bounds.

During his battles, Ye Guan didn't use his Qingxuan Sword but wielded a sword made out of sword intent. He could still remember Ye Xiuran's words—Purity! Extremity!

Ye Guan's current goal was to achieve purity and extremity—particularly in solidifying his will. Without an invincible will, how could one be called invincible?

After more than two decades of cultivation, Ye Guan's sword intent and swordsmanship advanced by leaps and bounds under the tempering of the High Gods' reincarnations.

He also reached the Transcension Realm.

Of course, this was also thanks to the tiny Tianxing Life Tree, which had provided him with an abundance of purple spiritual energy—a spiritual energy more potent than the spiritual energy inside the Eternal Crystal.

While Ye Guan was busy cultivating, Yi Nian spent her days continuing her research on the tiny pagoda's special spacetime.

Nowadays, Yi Nian would sometimes spend several days at once in her studies. The pagoda's unique spacetime was becoming more and more difficult to understand. It was profoundly complex, and even for her, the research was extremely challenging.

Just then, Yi Nian suddenly looked up and left the tiny pagoda. After stepping out, she gazed up at the sky and saw ripples in the spacetime up above.

Yi Nian frowned at the sight.

Crack!

The distorted spacetime split open, and countless experts emerged. They were led by none other than Justice Officer Cui Yin.

Yi Nian's expression darkened at the sight.

The sharp gazes of the men up above fell upon Yi Nian like swords. One of the men even roared, "You are an embarrassment to the Tianxing Civilization! Die for our honor!"

He raised his hand to strike her, but Yi Nian kicked him in the abdomen.

Bang!

The man was blasted thousands of meters away. He crashed into the sea, kicking up a massive column of water.

The Tianxing Civilization experts became even angrier. How dare she fight back?

An old man pointed at Yi Nian in fury. "Yi Nian, do you know what crime you've committed?!"

Yi Nian glanced at him indifferently. "No, I don't."

With that, she took out a candied hawthorn and began licking it.

The old man's face turned livid with anger. "You violated the divine laws by unleashing the Tianxing Flame without permission, but that's not all! You shamelessly fell in love with an ant from a low-tier civilization and even eloped with him.

"Do you understand your crime now?!"

Yi Nian licked the candied hawthorn and responded calmly, "I don't."

The old man was livid. He stepped forward and sent a palm strike toward Yi Nian.

The spacetime above Yi Nian shattered, and an overwhelming force bore down on her.

Yi Nian opened her palm and squeezed it.

The shattered spacetime above her head returned to normal.

Everyone was stunned.

Cui Yin's brows furrowed.

The old man was Level Six in strength, and Yi Nian was Level Six as well.

So how come she easily dispelled his attack?

A Tianxing Civilization expert would have their strength classified from Level One to Level Nine, followed by the Extreme Realm and then the Supreme Realm. Each level had its own distinct capabilities. A Level Six expert could control the Tianxing Flame, so they were above average within the Tianxing Civilization.

Despite being on the same level as the old man, Yi Nian had effortlessly neutralized the former's attack, indicating that her strength far surpassed the old man.

"Is she a Level Seven expert?" Cui Yin's brows furrowed even deeper. He himself was at the peak of Level Seven.

After dispelling the old man's attack, Yi Nian put away the tiny pagoda and turned around to leave.

Cui Yin saw that and shouted, "Stop her!"

Boom!

A blood-red seal appeared above Yi Nian's head, and the space around her trembled. A myriad of blood-red lightning bolts manifested moments later.

Spacetime Prison! Yi Nian's face darkened. The blood-red seal was a divine treasure of the Hall of Justice, specifically designed to imprison people.

Just as Yi Nian was about to break it, a terrifying force flew toward her from behind. She turned around quickly and pushed her right hand forward.

Boom!

A beam of white light flew, and the nearby mountains were reduced to ashes.

The attacker staggered backward.

The attacker was none other than Cui Yin. Cui Yin stared at Yi Nian in disbelief. "How are you so strong?"

The Tianxing Civilization experts were shocked as well. None of them had expected that Yi Nian would be so formidable.

As an Enforcement Officer, Yi Nian was usually outside enforcing laws, and she rarely returned to the Tianxing Civilization. Thus, no one had any idea that her strength had grown to such an extent.

Level Seven?

Once the shock had passed, the crowd was furious again. A Level Seven Enforcement Officer was considered a prodigy within the Tianxing Civilization, but the prodigy had fallen for a man from a low-tier civilization.

What a disgrace!

The Tianxing Civilization had destroyed a myriad of other civilizations over the years, so any other civilization out there was full of ants in their eyes.

Yi Nian looked at her fellow citizens. When she saw the anger and disdain in their eyes, she sighed inwardly and remarked, "I love him, but I don't want to hurt any of you!"

Yi Nian had brought Ye Guan here to introduce him to High Goddess Tianyun. Afterward, she was going to resign from her job as an Enforcement Officer and travel the vast expanse with Ye Guan.

She hadn't expected that things would go this way.

"Yi Nian!" Cui Yin exclaimed, "Hand over that man, and we will spare your life. We will also give you a chance to redeem yourself."

Yi Nian looked at Cui Yin. She knew that the middle-aged man was deliberately provoking her, as he harbored the most intense hostility toward her. His words were meant to stir the anger of the Tianxing Civilization experts.

"I want to see my teacher," Yi Nian said.

Cui Yin said calmly, "Hand over that man, and I will let you see the High Goddess."

Yi Nian frowned.

Feigning a heartfelt tone, Cui Yin said, "Yi Nian, you are an Enforcement Officer and the disciple of High Goddess Tianyun.

"Are you really willing to stand against all of us for the sake of an outsider, a mere insect? Are we, your people, not more important to you than one man?

"If you hand over that man and kill him in front of us, I can assure you that we won't make things difficult for you."

Just then, Jing An appeared in front of Yi Nian. She cast a meaningful look at Yi Nian and faced the experts of the Tianxing Civilization. Smiling, Jing An said, "Yi Nian and him aren't married. They're just friends. They—"

"We're married!" Yi Nian interrupted Jing An and stared at the Tianxing Civilization experts in the sky, who were staring at her with malice and disdain. "I love him. I want to have his children. That's it. I'm done talking."

Yi Nian's resolute words left no room for any misunderstandings.
