Chapter 470: Showing Off
They've never heard of the Great Daoist Brush Master?
Ye Guan looked at the Great Daoist Brush Master with a strange expression. Seems like this guy's reputation isn't as widespread as I thought.
Meanwhile, the Great Daoist Brush Master's face turned ugly. He stared into the distance, and his face became increasingly sour as he asked, "Are you sure you've never heard of me?"
Rumble!
Just then, the spacetime thousands of meters away from Ye Guan and the Great Daoist Brush Master trembled.
A spacetime rift was torn open, and an old man slowly walked out of it.
The old man was wearing a gray long robe with a bed of white hair, and he looked quite frail. However, the cold gaze in his eyes made it clear that he was anything but frail. His aura locked onto Ye Guan and the Great Daoist Brush Master, and it carried a thick hostility.
The gray-robed old man glared at the Great Daoist Brush Master.
"What? Are you a celebrity or something?"
Ye Guan became somewhat confused. Has he really never heard of the Great Daoist Brush Master? How could that be?
The Great Daoist Brush Master had also told Ye Guan that he had quite a few acquaintances here, and the former even said that no one would dare to turn him away here.
Was this guy just bragging? Ye Guan looked at the Great Daoist Brush Master and saw that the latter's face was incredibly sour.
After a few moments of hesitation, Ye Guan decided to mediate. He turned to the gray-robed old man and smiled. "Senior, we're from the Guanxuan Universe—"
However, the gray-robed old man rudely interrupted, "I don't care where the both of you had come from. If you don't want to die, then you better leave!"
The terrifying pressure that had locked onto Ye Guan and the Great Daoist Brush Master intensified.
Ye Guan turned to the Great Daoist Brush Master and said, "Senior, your reputation... Erm, no, I'm aware of your strength and reputation. I think there's a misunderstanding here. Yeah, a misunderstanding."
Ye Guan quietly stepped aside.
The Great Daoist Brush Master glared at the gray-robed old man.
The gray-robed old man didn't back down and glared at the Great Daoist Brush Master, too; he even revealed a hint of killing intent, as the two had yet to scamper off. The gray-robed old man was about to make a move when the Great Daoist Brush Master waved his sleeve.
Boom!
A deafening explosion echoed, and the gray-robed old man was inexplicably blasted away, flying hundreds of kilometers away. When he finally stopped, the gray-robed old man was shocked to find that his fleshly body had been annihilated.
The gray-robed old man—in his soul form—stared blankly in complete shock.
What happened? The gray-robed old man couldn't quite believe that his fleshly body had been annihilated in the blink of an eye. I couldn't withstand even one blow?
The gray-robed old man's eyes were filled with horror as he stared at the Great Daoist Brush Master. Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m
"Who the hell are you?!" exclaimed the gray-robed old man.
The Great Daoist Brush Master remained expressionless as he said, "We're not leaving. Come and kill us if you dare."
Ye Guan's lips twitched at the Great Daoist Brush Master's remark. I think he's bragging again.
The gray-robed old man was shocked. Clearly, he had provoked a true powerhouse. However, the gray-robed old man didn't panic. After all, he had the backing of the Eternal Night Empire.
The gray-robed old man became confident once more as he stared at the Great Daoist Brush Master and said, "You're encroaching on the territory of the Eternal Night Empire!"
The Great Daoist Brush Master raised his hand and delivered a resounding slap.
Slap!
The gray-robed old man was blasted hundreds of kilometers away. His soul had become so illusory that it was almost transparent, teetering on the edge of extinguishing.
The Great Daoist Brush Master stared back at him and said, "That slap wasn't just for you—it's for the entire Eternal Night Empire, too!"
Ye Guan was speechless.
The fear in the gray-robed old man's eyes intensified upon realizing that the Great Daoist Brush Master was truly going to kill him. The gray-robed old man took out a transmission talisman and crushed it to call for reinforcements.
Ye Guan remarked, "I think he just called for backup. Shouldn't we leave?"
"Why would we leave?" the Great Daoist Brush Master replied blandly.
Ye Guan fell silent. Clearly, the Great Daoist Brush Master was determined to show off today.
The Great Daoist Brush Master looked at the gray-robed old man and said, "Calling for reinforcements? Come on, better call the best. How about you call the emperor, too? I'd love to see just how powerful he is..."
The gray-robed old man was instantly anxious upon hearing the Great Daoist Brush Master's remark. This man is really extraordinary, but the Great Daoist Brush Master?
Song Zhiyan blinked, remaining silent.
The Great Daoist Brush Master smiled. "Would you mind if I visited the Song Clan?"
"It would be an honor. Senior, Young Lord Ye, this way please!" Song Zhiyan said.
The Great Daoist Brush Master nodded and looked at Ye Guan. "Let's go!"
Ye Guan nodded, and the two of them followed Song Zhiyan and the others, disappearing into the depths of the starry sky.
They traveled across the quiet star field until they finally arrived at the boundary of a realm.
The boundary was shut tight. However, just a few gestures from Song Zhiyan were all it took for it to become illusory. The group then entered the boundary at Song Zhiyan's signal.
Ye Guan and the Great Daoist Brush Master soon appeared in front of a city gate.
The city before them was extremely majestic; the walls were about a hundred meters high, and they seemed boundless in width. Anyone standing in front of such city gates would inevitably feel tiny.
Ye Guan saw three large characters written on a plaque—Eternal Night City.
Song Zhiyan smiled. "You're staring at the imperial capital of the Eternal Night Empire. It's also the largest city in the empire, capable of accommodating up to a billion people."
"What a majestic city..." Ye Guan praised.
"Please follow me," Song Zhiyan said.
Soon, Ye Guan and the Great Daoist Brush Master found themselves inside the Song Residence. The Song Clan was a major clan, so their residence was rather grand.
Song Zhiyan led them into the main hall, and then he turned to look at Ye Guan and asked, "Do you have any clan in mind that you wish to marry into?"
"He's going to marry into the clan that emerges victorious from the elections," the Great Daoist Brush Master replied.
Song Zhiyan nodded, but she clearly didn't expect the Great Daoist Brush Master's answer.
Ye Guan hesitated briefly before saying, "Senior, you know the other party has to be willing, too, right?"
"Those two clans will even let you choose among their daughters once they learn that you have three special bloodlines," the Great Daoist Brush Master remarked.
"You're making it sound like I'm selling my bloodline, senior."
The Great Daoist Brush Master chuckled. "I know you want to talk to them first and see whether it's possible to form an alliance with them or not. That's fine, you can talk to them, but if it doesn't work out, then we can talk about marriage right away."
Ye Guan fell silent. He disliked the idea of an arranged marriage. He felt that the Universe Tribulation was something that concerned all living beings, and he believed that they could simply work together without any marriages.
The Universe Tribulation would affect everything in the vast expanse at all.
Still, a marriage alliance was worth giving a shot if negotiations were to break down.
The Great Daoist Brush Master looked at Song Zhiyan and said, "Lass, don't tell anyone about our visit. We'll observe the situation silently and see which of those two clans is more suitable for us."
Song Zhiyan nodded. "Okay."
The Great Daoist Brush Master looked at Ye Guan and said, "I'm going out to see just how many of my old acquaintances are still alive."
Then, the Great Daoist Brush Master looked at Song Zhiyan and said, "Lass, please bring him around to familiarize himself with the Eternal Night Empire. If possible, introduce him to the two young ladies from those two clans.
"We're here for a marriage alliance, but it'd be great if they fell in love naturally."
Song Zhiyan glanced at Ye Guan, whose expression had turned slightly unpleasant, and said, "Okay."
The Great Daoist Brush Master got up and was about to leave, but he came to a halt upon recalling something. Then, he turned around slowly and stared at Ye Guan, asking, "You're not going to cause any trouble, right?"
Ye Guan replied, "I'm not a troublemaker but a dignified scholar!"
The Great Daoist Brush Master said, "Don't give me that nonsense."
Ye Guan was speechless.
"We're here to ally with them, not to make an enemy out of them. Please keep a low profile."
"What if others provoke me first?"
"Endure it, and it shall pass."
"What if I encounter someone like that gray-robed old man?"
"Handle it cleanly, and leave no traces."
Ye Guan was at a complete loss for words.
