Chapter 1483: Killing You Seems Doable

All eyes turned toward the grand hall. A man slowly walked out of the grand hall. He wore a simple robe and appeared to be around thirty years old. He looked refined and modest in appearance.

Fan Tian and the others immediately dropped to their knees in unison, and their voices trembled in emotion as they cried out, "Master!"

Master!

The man was none other than the legendary Transcendent One. He was the only known Transcendent One in the entire recorded history of the Main Universe.

Fan Tian and the others were overwhelmed with emotions.

Dao Xiao's eyes brimmed with tears as he cried out in frustration. "Master, they were bullying us!"

Everyone was speechless.

The man looked to the depths of the starry sky. A distant, nostalgic look crossed his face. After a moment, he turned to look at the tear-streaked Dao Xiao and was reminded of the old times. He smiled and said, "Still crying just like you did back then? You haven't grown up at all"

Dao Xiao wiped his tears, choking up, "Master, you're finally back."

The reason they followed the Great Daoist Brush Master was that he had promised to help bring their master back. While he was gone, none of the disciples could agree with one another, but if there were one thing they agreed on, it would be their reverence for their master.

Even Fan Tian teared up. He and his fellow disciples were once orphans. They were taken in, trained, and nurtured by the man before them. That was why he spared no effort in aiding the Great Daoist Brush Master.

He had only one goal—to bring their master home.

In the distance, Mu Shanhe's face paled upon seeing the man. The man was the very person who gave him his first brutal beating. And now, he was back.

Mu Shanhe instinctively moved closer to Ye Guan. After all, he was a prison escapee. If they were to toss him back to prison, that would be worse than sentencing him to an eternity of suffering in hell.

The man looked at An Nanjing and smiled. "A true Martial Goddess."

An Nanjing met his eyes calmly.

The man glanced at Ye Qingqing, Mu Niannian, and Slaughter, giving them a faint smile. Finally, his gaze landed on the Great Daoist Brush Master. "Long time no see."

"It's been a long time," the Great Daoist Brush Master acknowledged.

"You haven't given up?"

"I never will, just like you."

"Fair enough." The man nodded. Then, his gaze landed on Ye Guan. "Young Master Ye, your accomplishments at your young age are truly impressive."

Ye Guan looked at him and asked, "Where is my big brother?"

"You mean the Old God?"

"Yes."

The man replied with a light smile, "He needed to go somewhere."

Ye Guan frowned.

Then, the Great Daoist Brush Master interjected, "He couldn't do it?"

The man shook his head. "Returning to the past to kill yourself is easy. But going into the future to kill yourself? That's nearly impossible. Your future self is always far stronger than your present self."

"So what are you planning to do now?"

"I have another plan. One that can prove my hypothesis," the man replied with a smile.

"What idea?"

The man turned to Ye Guan.

Ye Guan frowned.

The Great Daoist Brush Master saw that and revealed a meaningful smile.

Sui Gujin's face changed. She immediately yanked Ye Guan behind her. She understood the man's intention. Whether he tried to kill his past or future self, it was for the single purpose of verifying his hypothesis.

In this world, which came first? Cause or effect? Yet, his future self had become so powerful that he could no longer hope to kill who he would become. Hence, he needed a new method to prove his hypothesis.

He wanted to kill someone not destined to die.

According to the laws of this world, Ye Guan was someone destined not to die. With just a single glance, the man saw through Ye Guan's uniqueness. If Ye Guan could be killed, then it meant that the world operates on uncertainty, where nothing was truly predestined and anything could happen.

If Ye Guan couldn't be killed, then it would prove that this world was predetermined and prewritten. If something was fated, then nothing truly mattered. Even if there was meaning behind it, its meaning would be defined by the people themselves.

With his power, the man was certain that Ye Guan could die under his hand.

The moment Sui Gujin pulled him behind her, Ye Guan immediately felt a sense of crisis that immediately turned into a feeling of impending doom.

He had never experienced this feeling of death so close and so real before.

He knew that he was going to die.

Even though Sui Gujin was standing in front of him to protect him, the man's power phased right through her. In fact, the man and Ye Guan were no longer in the same spacetime.

They had entered another spacetime that was beyond the Void Spacetime.

The Boundary of Truth and Illusion.

The man achieved enlightenment and became invincible here.

As soon as he attacked, he dragged Ye Guan into this boundary.

When Sui Gujin saw that Ye Guan's figure had become illusory, her expression fell in an instant. She no longer hid her strength and stretched her right hand forward, forcing it into the Boundary of Truth and Illusion. However, her hand was immediately pushed out by an invisible force.

Sui Gujin's face went pale.

Within the Boundary of Truth and Illusion, Ye Guan did not sit and wait for death. Instead, he summoned all of his faith power. At that moment, a tide of pure faith power swept out from within his body.

At the same time, three bloodline powers were ignited at once.

The Qingxuan Sword, wrapped in the purest faith power and three bloodline powers, shot forward. The entire world could feel the terrifying sword intent emanating from the Qingxuan Sword.

The sword intent managed to pierce countless layers of spacetimes at once.

Everyone was stunned by its power, as it was comparable to a Void Breaker.

Such a young Void Breaker?! How terrifying...

Even the Great Daoist Brush Master was surprised, but he quickly understood that Ye Guan had to have been secretly cultivating in that tiny pagoda. At the thought of that, his face darkened.

Ye Guan was becoming smarter in making full use of the tiny pagoda. Fortunately, he hadn't given Ye Guan much time. Otherwise, with Ye Guan's great potential, he could have made a ton of progress.

The moment he saw the man make his move, Ye Guan understood what was going on. He had only one chance to strike. Deep inside, a voice told him that even if he gave everything he had, he still wouldn't be able to stop the man.

The man's strength was absolutely beyond what Ye Guan could contend with right now.

Despite that, a sword had to be drawn!

If it were just a simple competition, Ye Guan would admit defeat without hesitation, as there was no shame in that. However, the man wanted to kill him! He could die in battle, but he would never cower before death.

Ye Guan swung his sword and watched as the sword pierced the man's finger. However, to his surprise, the Qingxuan Sword phased through the man's fingertip.

Spacetime displacement!

The man wasn't even within the Boundary of Truth and Illusion; he was in a higher layer of spacetime.

Everyone had underestimated him!

When Ye Guan's attack missed its mark, Ye Guan felt an unknown power seep into him. Within seconds, everything around him blurred and became illusory.

It wasn't the feeling of death!

After death, there was reincarnation. Ye Guan felt as though he was being forcibly erased from this world.

The man before him wanted to erase him completely!

Just then, a hand grabbed Ye Guan. With a gentle tug, Ye Guan was pulled out of the unknown spacetime, and he was returned into the Boundary Domain.

Ye Guan turned and saw a white-robed man smiling at him.

Father!

Ye Guan smiled back.

In the distance, the man looked at Ye Xuan. He smiled slightly and calmly said, "Killing you seems doable, too."

With that, he slowly clenched his right hand.
