Inside the villa where Li Zhaojun and others lived, a ghostly figure appeared outside a room on the second floor. This person bypassed the interception and protection of many experts surrounding the villa.
These experts were arranged by Ye Fan to prevent sneak attacks on his close ones by the demon. Ye Fan had been keeping a close watch on the demon, fearing that it would attack his close ones. However, the demon had been nurturing his three "successors," Fa Ying, Elder Yuan, and Luo Jianxiong, in a secret location within the Pangu Secret Realm, with no intention of dealing with Ye Fan.
But the ghostly figure that ca this ti had a cultivation level even higher than the demon and had a longstanding grudge with Ye Fan. This was Wuyingzi, who once used illusions to confuse Ye Fan’s mind, but was ultimately wounded by Ye Fan’s strong will. Wuyingzi was also an ancient cultivator almost as famous as the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman, Xi He.
This ti, Xi He did not appear as the hunched, lecherous old man she used to be. She donned a red outfit. When she appeared at the villa, apart from the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman, no one was aware of her presence.
The Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman stood in the center of the room, looking at Xi He, who had revealed herself, with a slight furrow in her brow, saying, "Why are you here? Didn’t you go looking for her?"
"Why be so distant?" Xi He replied with a smile, "I was worried about you and wanted to see you. Your charm remains undiminished from before. I truly wonder who has captured your heart. If I find out who that person is, I’d kill him and tear him to pieces!"
"You’ll never find out!" the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman countered.
The two were both won, yet a complex emotion lay between them. Xi He observed the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman for a long ti before she sighed lightly, "Perhaps your choice from the beginning was wrong. Why bring your daughter to that Ye kid’s side? Or do you have another purpose? Do you want that Ye kid to serve you?"
Beside Xi He, there had always been a mist that flickered between brightness and darkness. Even the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman found it mysterious. Although she couldn’t discern what it was, she vaguely sensed a life force within it.
"You’ve found it?" the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman looked at the mist, feeling that there should be a Soul Body inside.
Xi He laughed, "What, are you unhappy that I’ve found her? Although it took a long ti to find her existence and bring her back, she, like you before, beca a soul. I can’t communicate with her and can only trap her here. She betrayed , just like you did..."
"Do I know you?" the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman said coldly.
Xi He was stung by the response. She understood what the Mysterious Woman ant: there was no commitnt between them, so how could there be betrayal?
But Xi He was still very angry because the two won she loved had soone else in their hearts. Moreover, who the Mysterious Woman and her companion had in mind, for whom they gave birth to a daughter, why both beca soul bodies after the birth, and even their daughter was a soul body—these questions had lingered in her heart for thousands of years without answers.
"It doesn’t matter anymore," Xi He said. "If I find that Ye kid, maybe he’ll have a way to let a soul regain a physical body. Then I can keep her by my side. Even if she has soone else in her heart, she won’t betray again!"
The Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman turned away, looking elsewhere, and sighed gently: "Saying those things shows you have too strong a possessive desire. Anyone around you will betray you because they don’t want to be your captive!"
"What did you say?" Xi He, her face gloomy, even raised her hand, ready to attack the Mysterious Woman directly.
But the Mysterious Woman, calm and composed, left Xi He puzzled. Even Xi He didn’t know if the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman had truly lost her power or if she was just hiding it all along.
Xi He said, "Mysterious Woman, I rember a few days ago, that Ye kid was very rude to you. He even had the idea to directly test whether your power existed. Your endurance is quite high."
"Before him, I have no ability to resist. Why should I endure?" the Mysterious Woman replied. "As long as he doesn’t harm my daughter, no matter what he does, that’s his business. If he has doubts and wants to test, that’s his business too!"
"Aren’t you afraid I’ll kill you?" Xi He asked.
"If you destroy my physical body, I will still beco a Soul Body and can obtain a human body through Sang Yuan. Even if you kill Sang Yuan, I can still have Ye Fan obtain a body through other ans. You better kill him too, but by then, you’ll lose a piece you can use. Who will help you reconstruct a Soul Body’s physical body? Who will help you deal with those who take away the woman you love?" the Mysterious Woman laughed with delight because she knew Xi He couldn’t do anything against her, no matter how displeased Xi He was with her.
For the consciousness of ancient powerful beings is indestructible, the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman cared little whether she was a Soul Body or had a physical body. Initially, she wanted a human body just to et and talk with her daughter, fulfilling a mother’s responsibility.
"Aren’t you afraid I’ll kill your daughter?" Xi He said sharply.
"She’s just like , and... you can’t kill her. She has inherited my bloodline and power. Although her cultivation isn’t as high as yours, do you think it’s that easy to destroy her?" the Mysterious Woman said sternly.
Xi He scrutinized the Mysterious Woman with a strange expression and eventually gave up arguing further.
"Whatever, I’m going to find that Ye kid to help restart a physical body for her. Even though her heart isn’t with , I still want to protect her!" Xi He appeared deeply in love. Even if a woman lost loyalty to her, she remained stubbornly attached.
She was like this with the won around her, and with the Mysterious Woman too. In the Mysterious Woman’s view, Xi He was stern in words but soft at heart most of the ti.
After Xi He left the villa, the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman appeared sowhat forlorn, sensing that an uncontrollable event was about to unfold, with Ye Fan at the center of it all.
...
...
At that mont, Ye Fan was holding a cell phone, having watched the complete situation inside the Mysterious Woman’s room as captured by an advanced military surveillance device.
The signals sent by the surveillance device were all encrypted, rely disordered codes transford into images with translation. Despite Xi He’s high cultivation, she knew nothing about these high-tech gadgets and was utterly unaware she was being watched by Ye Fan.
"Get up, it’s ti to go back." Ye Fan put down the cell phone and patted the cheeks of Yang Xiaoting and Qin ngyao, who lay in his arms like two kittens. Qin ngyao opened her eyes, cast a dreamy gaze at Ye Fan, and continued to nest in his arms, falling asleep.
"It’s dangerous here; I must send you away first!" Ye Fan waved, "Sang Yuan, they’re in your care!"
"Fan ge..." Qin ngyao was about to get up and protest but suddenly felt her body slip into a void, and the next second, she and Yang Xiaoting were simultaneously back in their dormitory at Hua Hai University’s female residence.
