I Have a Sword

Just as the massive hammer was only dozens of meters away from Ye Guan and Fan Zhaodi, Fan Zhaodi lifted her left hand and waved it casually in the hammer's direction.

Bang!

Qiong Zhan and his hammer were sent flying thousands of meters away. When he finally came to a stop, his hands were trembling uncontrollably. He raised his head up slowly to look at Fan Zhaodi in the distance, and his expression became more serious than ever.

Meanwhile, Fan Zhaodi ignored Qiong Zhan and pressed down on Ye Guan's right shoulder with her right hand.

Boom!

A wave of immense power surged into Ye Guan like an unstoppable tide.

Ye Guan's aura became even stronger.

Qiong Zhan's face darkened, and a vicious glint appeared in his eyes. Gripping his iron hammer, he leaped into the air and swung it down again toward Ye Guan and Fan Zhaodi.

This time, the hammer's power bent the surrounding spacetime, creating a terrifying basin-like distortion.

From afar, Fan Zhaodi glanced at Qiong Zhan and flicked her sleeve.

Bang!

Once again, Qiong Zhan was sent flying.

When he stopped, disbelief filled his face as he stared at Fan Zhaodi. He had always known that she was strong, but this confrontation made him realize that she was far more powerful than he had imagined.

After repelling Qiong Zhan, Fan Zhaodi turned her gaze back to Ye Guan.

By now, Ye Guan had absorbed almost ninety percent of the eighteen Supreme Law Hearts within him. He was now considered a Supreme Sovereign. Moreover, his fleshly body was covered in dense, mysterious runes—the Supreme Laws.

The Supreme Laws granted power, but they had rules and restrictions that the cultivator had to respect.

Ye Guan clenched his fists, feeling an endless and terrifying energy coursing through him. At the same time, he could sense the constraints of the Supreme Laws on him.

At this moment, Meng Wu, the Multiverse Emperor, and Si Wen appeared beside Qiong Zhan. Qiong Zhan stared at Fan Zhaodi in the distance and said in a deep voice, "This lady is exceedingly powerful."

Meng Wu glanced at Ye Guan and said, "We can't let them succeed."

With that, he stepped forward, transforming into his original form—a towering figure nearly a hundred meters tall, with pillar-like arms and fiery eyes. A terrifying aura erupted from him, causing the entire starfield to tremble.

Meng Wu let out a furious roar, clenched his fists, and slammed them toward Ye Guan and Fan Zhaodi with all his might. A full-strength attack from a peak Supreme Sovereign was nothing short of cataclysmic.

As his fists descended, a horrifying pressure swept across the entire Divine Ruins, enveloping everything in its path.

However, Fan Zhaodi didn't even turn her head. She simply waved her hand in response, and Meng Wu was sent flying away with a deafening roar.

Qiong Zhan and the others were stunned; disbelief was written all over their faces.

Even Si Wen finally showed signs of unease. He thought that Qiong Zhan and the others were comparable to Fan Zhaodi, but clearly, the gap was far larger than he had expected.

Meng Wu looked down at his own hands and saw that they were bleeding profusely. His shock was evident on his face as he stared at Fan Zhaodi with a grim face.

Just then, Qiong Zhan looked up and shouted, "Otherworld Ruler! Are you just going to stand by and watch?"

The Otherworld Ruler was the ruler of the Otherworld City.

At first, they had no plans to work with Otherworld City. The Otherworld City was a mortal enemy of the Divine Ruins, after all. However, they were left with no choice. They couldn't let the Supreme Law Order appear once more.

They were now leaders of their respective factions, so how could they be willing to submit?

Rumble!

The distant spacetime trembled slightly, and a middle-aged man in a gray robe emerged from it.

Seeing him, Qiong Zhan and the others couldn't hide their apprehension. The Otherworld City was a fearsome force. Even at the peak of the Divine Ruins Empire's power, the empire couldn't destroy it.

The Otherworld Ruler glanced at Qiong Zhan and the others. "This is an internal affair of the Divine Ruins Empire. It has nothing to do with my Otherworld City. You deal with it first."

With that, he stepped aside, showing no intention of intervening.

Qiong Zhan and Meng Wu exchanged glances with frustration written across their faces. They understood that the Otherworld Ruler wanted to let both sides weaken each other so he could reap the benefits.

With no other choice and seeing that Ye Guan was about to complete his breakthrough, they abandoned all pretense and flew toward Ye Guan and Fan Zhaodi.

Fan Zhaodi extended her left hand in their direction and gently pressed down.

Boom!

Qiong Zhan and Meng Wu were forcefully pinned in place, unable to move.

Si Wen's face turned grim. This lady's strength is absurd.

Even the Otherworld Ruler's smile faded away at the sight.

Without sparing a glance at the pinned figures, Fan Zhaodi waved her hand again.

Bang! Bang!

Qiong Zhan and Meng Wu were sent flying once more.

As they reeled from the attack, a terrifying aura erupted from Ye Guan.

Fan Zhaodi withdrew her hand, stepping back.

Ye Guan clenched his fists, emanating waves of overwhelming power.

Si Wen's expression darkened at the sight. He knew Ye Guan's strength had grown even more formidable.

Fan Zhaodi turned to Qiong Zhan and the others and smiled. "Qiong Zhan, you've allied with the Otherworld City? Do you not know that your ancestor, Qiong Ye, died at their hands?"

Qiong Zhan glared at her and replied, "Had it not been for the Divine Ruins Empire's schemes, would my ancestor have fallen to the Otherworld City?"

Fan Zhaodi shook her head. "You're mistaken. Your ancestor was an extraordinary genius. How could he not see through the schemes of the emperor at the time? He knew, yet he still chose to resist the Otherworld City."

Qiong Zhan's brow furrowed deeply.

Fan Zhaodi sighed softly. "The shortsightedness of the emperor at the time has betrayed your ancestor. For his sake, I won't destroy your Iron God Clan."

Qiong Zhan sneered. "Destroy my clan? Fan Zhaodi, you're overestimating yourself. You're strong, but how many people on our level can you fight at once?"

Fan Zhaodi smiled faintly and vanished. The next moment, Qiong Zhan's face twisted in shock. Fan Zhaodi was already before him, and her hand was gripping his throat.

Everyone was stunned.

Fan Zhaodi looked into Qiong Zhan's terrified eyes and chuckled. "You think you're my opponent? Naive."

With a flick of her hand, she hurled him away.

Boom!

Space shattered, and only Qiong Zhan's soul remained.

The battlefield was silent.

Even Si Wen was utterly stunned.

He had grossly underestimated the power of the First Hall Master.

Fan Zhaodi didn't spare another glance at the defeated figures.

She approached Ye Guan and opened her palm, revealing four golden fragments.

"The Supreme Law Seal!"

Meng Wu stared at the fragments with dread. Once the Supreme Law Seal was restored, the Supreme Laws would be reinstated, and all who cultivated them would have to abide by their rules.

Unfortunately, they could only watch helplessly.

Si Wen turned to look at the Multiverse Emperor. Upon seeing his calm face and smile, Si Wen felt slightly relieved. The Multiverse Emperor looked calm and was behaving like everything was still under his control.

Fan Zhaodi paid no heed to Qiong Zhan and the others. She walked slowly toward Ye Guan and opened her palm, revealing four golden fragments.

Ye Guan slowly opened his eyes. His pupils briefly glowed gold before dimming back to their normal state.

Fan Zhaodi extended her palm, allowing the four golden fragments to float toward Ye Guan.

Ye Guan looked at her. "The Supreme Law Seal?"

Fan Zhaodi nodded. "You can reassemble it, and it's all thanks to the eighteen Supreme Law Hearts within you."

Ye Guan glanced at her and then took the four golden fragments. Closing his eyes, he allowed streams of golden energy to flow into his palm. As the golden energy coursed through him, the fragments trembled lightly and started merging.

Despair swept over Qiong Zhan and the others at the sight of it.

Just as the Supreme Law Seal was about to become whole once more, Ye Guan looked at Fan Zhaodi in front of him and asked, "You're strong enough to reassemble the Supreme Law Seal, aren't you?"

"Yes."

"Then why are you letting me do it?"

"Do you remember what you said to me that day?"

Ye Guan frowned. "What did I say?"

"You said that your Order must be supervised. Without supervision, your laws and order would become the greatest threat to your rule.

"The Supreme Order's essence focuses on individual desires rather than the masses. The Supreme Laws shouldn't exist. Once you've reassembled that seal, you can replace the Supreme Laws with your Guanxuan Laws.

"You can then spread your Guanxuan Laws throughout the vast expanse."

Ye Guan stared at her. "This was your plan?"

"Nope." Fan Zhaodi shook her head. "It's only a part of it."

Ye Guan frowned.

Fan Zhaodi chuckled."Don't overthink it. Just reassemble the seal. With it, you can use your Guanxuan Laws to replace the Supreme Laws and become essentially a god."

Ye Guan glanced at her once more. With a slight movement of his right hand, the Supreme Law Seal was successfully reassembled.

Rumble!

A mysterious power pervaded the heavens and the earth. Every cultivator in the Divine Ruins who had cultivated the Supreme Laws felt this power!

The Supreme Laws!

Qiong Zhan and his companions were utterly despondent.

They could feel the laws' binding power.

With the Supreme Law Seal in hand, Ye Guan could suppress them at will.

Just then, Fan Zhaodi suddenly said, "Change the laws."

Ye Guan turned to her. "Change them?"

Fan Zhaodi nodded.

Ye Guan closed his eyes and started changing the laws. Just as he tried changing the first law, the Supreme Law Seal in his hand trembled violently. Then, a terrifying aura erupted from the depths of the starry sky.

"Unfilial wretch!" A furious roar echoed from the far reaches of the firmament. An overwhelming pressure, far stronger than Fan Zhaodi's aura, swept across like a tidal wave from the starry skies.

The Divine Ruins was thrown into chaos!
