Chapter 1474: Let Him Try
"What a load of nonsense..." Ye Guan clearly didn't believe the guy in front of him. He looked like the typical slick talker.
The man in brocade robes just chuckled. He had his reasons for sticking around.
In truth, he'd been thinking about one thing this whole time—how could Ye Guan's sword ignore the divine law inside that painting?
No, it went beyond mere ignoring; it actually broke through them.
He deduced that Ye Guan had to be incredibly strong. Regardless of his strength, there was just no way he could overpower the divine law left behind by that mysterious figure.
And yet, Ye Guan's sword managed to shatter it.
It could only mean one thing. Whoever forged that sword was at least on par with the one who created that divine law.
And who was the creator of that divine law? It was that legendary mysterious figure from a long time ago. He was someone so powerful that it was terrifying to even think about fighting him.
Could there really be someone even more fearsome than him?
Just imagining it made the man in brocade robes a little uneasy.
That was why he chose to stay; it was a gamble. Moreover, he also didn't want to walk away like nothing happened. Had it not been for the young swordsman, he wouldn't have gotten out in the first place.
Leaving now would feel wrong. He figured he'd do what he could to help, and if they still ended up losing, then well... at least, he could leave with a clear conscience.
