I Have A Sword Chapter 74: My Backer Is Powerful

Chapter 74: My Backer Is Powerful

Ye Guanzhi left and found Monk Dao staring at her outside.

She smiled politely at Monk Dao before walking away.

Monk Dao asked, Does he have a chance in the Destiny Contest?

Ye Guanzhi stopped in her tracks.

She thought about it for a while before saying, I dont think so.

Monk Daos eyes narrowed. Hes a Sword Immortal!

Ye Guanzhi nodded and said, It is quite rare for someone this young to already be a Sword Immortal, even in the Main Guanxuan Academy! But

A Sword Immortal at his age is rare even in the Main Guanxuan Academy, but Ye Guanzhi trailed off before continuing. I dont think he has any chances of winning, especially after I saw the demon race and Milky Ways representative.

Monk Daos expression turned heavy.

Ye Guanzhi smiled slightly and said, Senior Dao, please dont be discouraged. Nothing is certain, and anyone can become a dark horse.

Please dont call me Senior, miss. Im not worthy of it, said Monk Dao. He was humble because he knew that even though the woman in front of him was young, she was already strong enough to crush him!

She was definitely a terrifying existence, even among the powerhouses of the Main Guanxuan Academy!

Ye Guanzhi turned and looked at the great hall.

The Guanxuan Academy and the Daoist Sects relationship used to be great. Its a pity that the Daoist Sect has fallen to such a state she muttered before finally departing the Daoist Sect.

Monk Dao silently watched her leave.

Nanling Yiyi peeked into the white jade bottle and gasped. Ah! There are five Immortal-grade spiritual medicines here!

Five?! Ye Guan was shocked by Ye Guanzhis generosity.

Nanling Yiyi hurriedly took out one pill and shoved it into Ye Guans mouth.

Ye Guan inadvertently swallowed it, and a green light immediately burst out of him.

His wounds healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, astonishing both him and Nanling Yiyi. His dead skin sloughed off him, and he recovered completely. What a wondrous pill! It seems that I still have a lot to learn about this world.

Nanling Yiyi exclaimed, That was amazing!

Ye Guan shook his head and chuckled hollowly. It seemed that Ye Guanzhis status was indeed extraordinary.

Ye Guan stretched, and he could already move freely after just a few minutes. He turned to look at Nanling Yiyi and said, Senior Disciple Yiyi, Im going to change clothes.

All right, Nanling Yiyi said with a nod.

However, Nanling Yiyi didnt really walk away or turn around, which baffled Ye Guan.

Are you not going to look away? he asked after much hesitation.

Nanling Yiyi blinked and casually said, Ive already seen everything. I dont think its a big deal!

Ye Guans expression stiffened.

Pffft! Nanling Yiyi covered her mouth with her hand and chuckled. Just kidding!

With that, Nanling Yiyi turned around and left.

Ye Guan got up and changed. He soon walked out and looked up. It was sunset, so the sky was covered in a red hue, creating a picturesque sight.

Ye Guan sat down on the stone steps and opened his palm. The Path Sword appeared in his hands, and he stroked it. Little Jia, the True Dragon Clan has been annihilated, and I I really miss you!

The Undying Clan! A resolute light flashed in Ye Guans eyes upon thinking about borrowing the Qingxuan Sword. I need strength!

Ye Guan was convinced that the Undying Clan would allow him to borrow the Qingxuan Sword as long as he was strong enough.

With that thought in mind, Ye Guan got up and hopped onto his sword. Moments later, he disappeared into the horizon. He had just recovered, but he had already decided to go to the Immortal Treasures Pavilion and cultivate!

Yue City.

Manager Chen Diao sat wordlessly on his chair, seemingly in deep thought. All of a sudden, a man walked into Chen Diaos office. The man looked like he was in his twenties, and he was a plump man resembling a ball of meat.

Chen Diao asked calmly, How am I going to be punished?

Oh? So you already know your fate? the plump man asked mockingly.

Chen Diao nodded. He knew that his outcome was grim upon hearing of the True Dragon Clans annihilation.

The plump man exclaimed, Your outcome is death!

Chen Diaos pupils constricted. He immediately stood up and said, Yes, I committed a crime, but its not a crime punishable by death! I

The plump man interrupted with a scoff. I thought you werent afraid of death?

Chen Diao examined the plump man and asked, May I know who you are?

The plump man lifted his robe, revealing a small golden sachet hanging from his waist. Chen Diaos pupils constricted upon seeing the golden sachet and his voice trembled as he muttered, A golden sachet

The Immortal Treasures Pavilion had many branches, so it had a multitude of managers managing its branches. However, managers were divided into different ranks, and a managers rank could be distinguished by their sachets.

The sachets they carried had colors that ranged from copper for the lowest rank to silver, gold, and white for the highest rank.

A Pavilion Master and his trusted subordinates were the only ones authorized to carry white sachets. A white sachet holder had the same authority as a Pavilion Master. However, white sachets could only be carried around by those from the headquarters deep in the Guanxuan Universe.

Chen Diao didnt expect that the higher-ups would send a gold-sachet manager to take care of him, and he was also surprised to see such a young gold-sachet manager.

The plump man sat down on an empty chair and said, I understand why you made such an investment in the True Dragon Clan. The True Dragon Clans potential was greater than Ye Guan, after all.

However, you shouldnt have used the Immortal Treasures Pavilions power to help them. Using the Immortal Treasures Pavilions resources for personal gain is frowned upon.

I dont think this issue is big enough to attract the headquarters attention. How come the headquarters learned of it? asked Chen Diao as he quivered ever so slightly in his seat.

The plump man chuckled and said, Guanxuan Academys Representative Ye sent a letter to headquarters, and she told the higher-ups about your involvement in the matter.

Chen Diaos expression stiffened. He didnt know what to say.

The plump man shook his head slightly and added, Representative Yes report was just part of the reason. The headquarters was alarmed by how the True Dragon Clan was wiped out despite the advent of their ancestor.

The powerhouses of the Shenge Clan had reportedly died as well. In other words, Young Lord Yes backer is stronger than Lee Ge!

Chen Diao went beyond pallid.

The plump man continued. I agree that your crime, even though frowned upon, isnt that heavy. However, your true crime here was barking up the wrong tree!

Chen Diao asked, Will I really get executed?

The plump man replied, We have to kill you to make an example.

Chen Diao chuckled hollowly and said, Do you really think that Ye Guans backer is stronger than the An Clan?

The plump man picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip.

I dont know about that, he said nonchalantly, However, Young Lord Yes backer is definitely stronger than you. Anyway, I really find you pitiful. You tried to get in the An Clans good books through the True Dragon Clan, but the An Clan doesnt even know that you exist!

The plump man shook his head and added, Humans should be careful when it comes to licking someones boots. Licking the wrong boots would only send disaster your way!

Chen Diaos expression froze.

Goodbye! the plump man exclaimed.

Swoosh!

Chen Diao inexplicably burst into flames, and he was reduced to ashes in the blink of an eye.

The plump man put down the teacup and said, Let her in.

A woman slowly walked into the office.

The woman was none other than Mo Ya from Yong City.

The plump man grinned and said, Youll be the manager of Yue Citys Immortal Treasures Pavilion from now on!

Mo Ya was taken aback, and she stuttered, T-this

You dont want this role? asked the plump man.

No, I want it. Its just that I cant quite believe it! Mo Ya said in a hurry. Moments later, she asked hesitantly, Is it because of Young Lord Ye?

The plump man chuckled and replied, Yes.

The stone weighing on Mo Yas heart abruptly vanished. She was overjoyed to discover that she had made the right gamble at the time.

The plump man stared at her and said, Why did you help Young Lord Ye?

Mo Ya pondered over it before saying, It was partly because he was a good person, but the main reason was that he was strong enough to defeat An Mu and the True Dragon Clans Young Clan Leader. I also had nothing to lose at the time but everything to gain if my gamble paid off.

Haha! The plump man boisterously laughed, and his fat folds jiggled as he laughed.

Mo Ya wordlessly stared at the plump man. Expplre ptodte stories at no/el//bin(.)cm

I can see that you have an eye for people, said the plump man.

Mo Ya hurriedly bowed. It is my honor, Senior!

The plump man nodded and got up. You will manage this branch from now on. I will see you again.

Senior! Mo Ya hurriedly called out. She hesitated for a few moments before saying, I just received news that Young Lord Ye is here. Do you not wish to meet him, Senior?

The plump man smirked and asked, Do you want me to meet him?

Mo Ya bowed and answered, I have my own selfish desires, but I know how to look at the bigger picture. I am already satisfied to have done a favor for an important figure like Young Lord Ye.

If Senior feels that Young Lord Yes future is bright, you could get acquainted with him yourself to win over an important partner for Immortal Treasures Pavilion.

Mo Ya knew that her fate with Ye Guan had ended.

The plump man in front of her could easily decide her future, and she could tell that the Immortal Treasures Pavilion valued Ye Guan greatly. Otherwise, they wouldnt have sent someone of the plump mans caliber here.

Mo Ya was also aware that the plump man would still go and visit Ye Guan himself even if she hadnt said anything, so why not say something to get into the plump mans good books? The plump man would take Ye Guan away from her anyway, so why not squeeze as much value as possible until it was exhausted?

The plump man stared deeply at Mo Ya. Eventually, he smiled in satisfaction and said, It seems that I have underestimated you. Do your best here, and you might become one of the headquarters members!

The plump man turned around to leave afterward, leaving Mo Ya jumping for joy.

Ye Guan was currently In the outer hall of Yue Citys Immortal Treasures Pavilion. He[1] was here to see Mo Ya and thank her. After all, Mo Ya had helped him greatly back when the True Dragon Clan had surrounded him.

A plump man from the inner hall of the building walked toward Ye Guan. The plump man was all smiles, prompting Ye Guan to look at the former.

Its nice to meet you, Young Lord Ye. My name is Qin Feng, and you may refer to me as Old Qin!

Ye Guan was slightly confused, and he asked, Do I know you?

Qin Feng politely replied, Im Lady Mo Yas superior.

Ye Guan nodded slightly. I see.

Young Lord Ye, I apologize to you on behalf of the Immortal Treasures Pavilion! Qin Feng said with a bow.

Ye Guan was puzzled. Why?

Qin Feng chuckled bitterly and explained, The previous manager of this branchChen Diaocolluded with the True Dragon Clan and exposed your whereabouts. He mobilized the Immortal Treasures Pavilions intelligence network to help the True Dragon Clan. Sigh

Ye Guan was silent. He had been wondering about the True Dragon Clans quick response, and he finally had the answer.

We have already executed Chen Diao, but we still dont think that its enough, said Qin Feng. He took out a storage ring and passed it over to Ye Guan. Young Lord Ye, please accept this small token of appreciation from our Immortal Treasures Pavilion!

Ye Guan accepted the storage ring and was shocked at the Immortal Treasures Pavilions generosity upon checking the storage rings contents. The storage ring contained a million gold spiritual crystals. This is too much!

Ive heard that Lady Mo Ya and Young Lord Ye are friends, so we decided to promote her to this branchs manager. This branch has higher foot traffic, after all, so it is practically a promotion. If Young Lord Ye needs something, you can go ahead and look for her. Im sure shell accommodate your requests, said Qin Feng.

Ye Guan stared deeply at Qin Feng and asked, Brother Qin, pardon me for asking this, but do I have a powerful backer?

Ye Guan knew that there was a reason behind Qin Fengs kindness and politeness.

Is it because of my father, or is it because of Plain-Skirt Sister?

Qin Feng was silent. How am I supposed to answer that question? Arent you supposed to know better than me? Theyre your backer, after all.

Ye Guan sounded serious as he added, I would really love to know.

At that, Qin Feng knew that he couldnt delay anymore and said, Brother Ye, I can see that youre a humble individual, so Ill answer you honestly. I dont know just how strong your backer is, and shouldnt you know that yourself?

Ye Guan thought about it and sighed before saying, I guess I have an extremely powerful backer, then.

Qin Feng didnt know what to say.

1. Mo Ya is from Yong City not Yue City but its written like this in the raws.
