Chapter 338: Cirou And Ba Wan’s Motives

Ye Guan's Dao Imprint had allowed him to temporarily reach the Time Immortal Realm, and the Divine Tree of Nature's Force of Nature gave him an incredible recovery rate, but he could still not withstand the crimson lightning bolts.

Ye Guan knew that he would have had a high chance of success if he had the Path Sword, but he still decided to charge at the crimson lightning bolts. The reason wasn't that hard to deduce. He had simply gotten tired—tired of being protected.

He had to do things by himself at some point, and he couldn't rely on the protection of others forever.

Just before Ye Guan’s fleshly body and soul were annihilated by the crimson lightning bolts, a dazzling light erupted in front of him and blasted the crimson lightning bolts away.

The radiant light had come from Cirou, and she exclaimed, “Let’s go!"

She grabbed the Adjudication Sword Master’s hand and blasted away every nearby crimson lightning bolt before disappearing into the depths of the starry sky.

...

On a remote island somewhere, Cirou's expression was heavy as she looked down at Ye Guan lying on the sand.

Ye Guan was severely injured.

He had bitten more than he could afford to chew, and he would have died if it hadn't been for the Divine Tree of Nature.

It wasn't strange that Ye Guan had suffered such extensive injuries. Those crimson lightning bolts would only appear whenever a cultivator attempted to make a breakthrough and become a part of the universe by becoming a Cosmic Spirit.

It was a good thing that he had the Divine Tree of Nature.

The Adjudication Sword Master watched Ye Guan in silence, seemingly deep in thought.

Cirou sat down next to her and caressed her face gently with a smile.

“Cijing, what do you think of this brat? He's pretty handsome, right?”

Cijing stared at Cirou and said, “You’re following him because you’re hoping that the True Universe and the Guanxuan Universe can coexist in peace in the future?”

Cirou smiled and admitted, “That's one of my motives.”

Cijing frowned slightly and asked, “One of your motives? Do you have other motives?”

“I hope that he'll help Big Sister in the future.”

“You're hoping that he'll help Big Sister overcome the Universe Tribulation?”

“Yes.”

“I don't think it's fair for Big Sister to carry the existence of this vast expanse on her shoulders by herself.”

“So, you're using him?” asked Cijing.

“You're making it sound worse than it is,” Cirou replied.You'll discover the inception of this content at n0v@lbin★

The Adjudication Sword Master shook her head and went silent.

Cirou stroked Ye Guan’s face and asked, “Do you really think that Big Sister can keep on suppressing it forever?”

A trace of sadness fleeted across the Adjudication Sword Master’s face as she said, “I haven’t seen her in a long time.”

Cirou looked down at Ye Guan and said, “Apart from Big Sister, there are only two other people capable of withstanding the Universe Tribulation.”

The Adjudication Sword Master looked at Ye Guan as well and asked, “Him?”

"Yes." Cirou nodded and explained, "The other is the Great Daoist Brush Master... Of course, he's too weak to do it on his own. However, if he attempts to take on the Universe Tribulation, then she will make a move.”

“So, you want to force her to make a move by putting him in danger,” the Adjudication Sword Master remarked.

Cirou nodded without saying anything.

The Adjudication Sword Master shook her head and said, “Cirou, I can tell that he's quite fond of you. Once he discovers that you’re just using him...”

Cirou hurriedly said, “Ba Wan is also...”

“Yes,” Cirou replied with a nod.

“Cirou, I have no doubts that you and Ba Wan just want to help Big Sister, but I can tell you with full confidence that Big Sister will not like what you are doing right now.”

“We know. Big Sister is exceedingly prideful, and she won't stoop so low as to approve of something like this. However, we're willing to accept the consequences of our actions so long as she ends up surviving the Universe Tribulation."

“I won't cooperate.”

“Is that so? What about him? Are you not going to help him?”

“What do you mean?”

"This brat is exceedingly prideful as well. He even returned the Path Sword to that lady and swore not to ask for her help from then on. Sigh, he really caught me off guard, and he had inadvertently spoiled some of my plans.

"It is indeed true that one can never predict the future. His courage has truly surprised me."

"I think he made the right decision," the Adjudication Sword Master said.

"Really? Cirou asked before explaining, “He's going to face the Eternal Sovereign soon. The Guanxuan Universe is too weak to fight the Eternal Sovereign and his army.”

“The Eternal Sovereign is also a part of your plan?” asked the Adjudication Sword Master.

Cirou avoided the question and said, “We have to make him even stronger. I was hoping that we could work together to help him get the Lightning God Imprint from this place and allow him to refine his sword intent using the Lightning Pool."

The Adjudication Sword Master scoffed, “What makes you think that I will help you?”

“Because it's for Big Sister's sake...”

“I'll help him, but it won't be for Big Sister's sake.”

Cirou was surprised to hear that.

Just then, Ye Guan’s right hand twitched. Cirou walked up to him as Ye Guan's eyes fluttered open. His vision captured the blue skies up above, and the pristine scenery made him mutter, “Am I dead?”

“Of course not,” Cirou replied.

Ye Guan turned and smiled upon seeing Cirou.

“I really thought I would die..." he said. He felt a shiver down his spine upon recalling his encounter with those crimson lightning bolts.

Cirou smiled at him and asked, “How are you feeling?”

Ye Guan examined himself and realized that his fleshly body and soul were on the cusp of making a complete recovery. He pondered briefly before saying, “I should be all healed up in just a few hours.”

“That’s great!” Cirou exclaimed in joy.

Ye Guan looked around and asked, “Where are we?”

“We're in a small, independent world that Big Sister created. This world is called the True World, and the legendary Universe Tribulation is just outside of this world. Of course, we can't see it right now. We can only see it once we go up.

"Unfortunately, we can't go to it right now; if we do, we're certainly going to die."

Cirou took out a pill and helped Ye Guan ingest it.

“Rest some more. Later, we'll bring you around to look for good things.”

Ye Guan's curiosity was piqued. “Good things?”

“Yes, good things,” Cirou replied with a nod.

Ye Guan stared deeply at Cirou. For some reason, there was something strange in the air about Cirou, but he couldn't quite put a finger on it. In the end, he set his thoughts aside and focused on recovering. With the help of Cirou's pill, he achieved a complete recovery in just thirty minutes.

"The two of us will protect you later," Cirou said.

Ye Guan glanced at the Adjudication Sword Master and muttered doubtfully, “She's going to protect me too?”

The Adjudication Sword Master glared at Ye Guan and said, “I'll cut you down if you dare to lose focus later.”

Ye Guan had no idea what to say.
