Ye Fan calmly adjusted his clothes while Xi He also appeared in the villa where he had settled.
Ye Fan had seen Xi He’s feminine form before, and now looking again, Xi He still exuded the charm of a mature woman, albeit with slightly masculine traits, which were related to Xi He’s orientations. Ye Fan did not leave the room, but rather observed the soul bound in a small space by Xi He, clasped his fists, and saluted: "Senior Wu Ying, long ti no see!"
"That title is outdated now; I will no longer show myself as Wu Ying." Xi He said, releasing the mist in her hand, and a vague soul body appeared before Ye Fan. Even in daylight, the soul body was obscure when cast onto the Tongling mirror, and Ye Fan could only vaguely discern it was a person, specifically a female soul.
Ye Fan asked, "Is this the person senior has been searching for all along?"
"Since you can see her, that’s for the best. Tell her that no matter what, I won’t let her escape again. I will keep her by my side!" Xi He’s possessiveness was strong, knowing that the woman had already "transferred her affections" and even bore a daughter with soone else, yet still wanted to assert control so domineeringly.
Ye Fan was about to say sothing when the woman’s soul body said, "Young man, you don’t need to say anything to . I can hear her words; she just can’t hear mine. Tell her I never had any feelings for her. Even if she can keep my soul, she can’t keep my heart!"
The woman’s soul body spoke forcefully as well, and from the feedback through Ye Fan’s Tongling mirror, he felt that both won had sowhat masculine traits in their speech, creating a sense of oppression.
Ye Fan thought: "Even if this senior’s cultivation isn’t as high as Xi He’s and ultimately ’succumbs’ to Xi He, she’s still an ancient cultivator. Her power should be roughly equivalent to Xi He’s. I’d better not get involved with these nearly immortal eccentric won."
"Did you tell her?" Xi He frowned seeing Ye Fan hadn’t acted.
"Senior, isn’t it a conflict between you two, not my business as a junior, particularly as an ordinary human? Please state your demands, or anything you say she can hear as well; there’s no need for to relay it!"
Ye Fan was frustrated; it felt like a divine battle with mortals suffering.
Xi He said, "Tell her, I will help her rebuild a body and keep her by my side; she can forget about leaving ever again!"
"Dream on!" The woman only spoke words that Ye Fan could hear: "Make her give my daughter back!"
The woman seed to believe Xi He had hidden her daughter, but Ye Fan could attest that even amid Xi He’s ’psychological abnormality,’ she treated the woman’s daughter well and let the girl’s soul depart. At that ti, Ye Fan sensed a maternal glow in Xi He’s eyes. Perhaps because Xi He had no daughter herself, even if the child born of the one she loved was another’s, she didn’t trouble the girl’s soul body.
"This senior... please calm down." Ye Fan communicated to the woman through the Tongling mirror, "Actually, your daughter left Earth before, presumably to return to her desired place, and Senior Xi He... did not give her any trouble."
"Young man, you think I’ll believe your lies? The girl who helped her find is your lover, isn’t she? That girl keeps saying she wants to see you, I know the girl must be coerced by her, you’re helping this woman handle just to save your little lover!?" The woman seed to embody the saying ’a dog bit Lu Dongbin,’ expressing anger at Ye Fan.
Ye Fan thought, what did I do to deserve this? He rely spoke the truth; he held no fondness for these ancient cultivators, each one acting superior. What he had t were the ’female’ ones; if he encountered male cultivators in the future, who knows how tyrannical and rude they might be.
Xi He saw the movents between Ye Fan’s brows and harshly asked, "What are you saying to her?"
Ye Fan then looked at Xi He and roughly repeated what the woman had said. Xi He sneered, "Tell her her daughter is in my hands now. Only if she behaves will she have a chance to see her daughter."
Because the woman could understand Xi He’s words, when she learned of this, her soul body beca restless; if she could fight, she would certainly kill Xi He.
Ye Fan thought, this probably embodies the infamous ’love as fierce as hate’; even when they couldn’t communicate, they argued fiercely, surely they were foes in a past life, or after spending several millennia together, they grew weary of each other and argued, similar to ordinary human couples.
"Senior Xi He, no need for spiteful words," Ye Fan sighed, "In fact, senior has always treated her with kindness, even helping her find a safe haven to pass peacefully. If this is rely about pride and arguing, it’s quite aningless."
Xi He was exposed for lying by Ye Fan and roared, "Stupid boy, do you want to die?"
Perhaps realizing she couldn’t kill Ye Fan, she changed her tone, "You want to see that little girl Shen Yan, right? Then behave, and stay out of our business!"
Ye Fan shrugged, as if saying he had no interest in ddling in their affairs, preferring the ordinary life of a human. He thought, if they needed his interdiation to communicate, yet said to stay out of it?
Xi He’s anger inadvertently revealed she had indeed safely sent the young girl’s soul away. Originally, the woman’s soul was very angry, but now remained silent.
"Boy surnad Ye, enough of the nonsense. Don’t you have a way to help soul bodies gain human flesh? Now, use it on her. I want to see her rebuild her body!" Xi He requested.
But her request had no sense of deference, more like an order, which irritated Ye Fan.
Ye Fan replied, "Forgive , senior, my assistance to Xuan Nu in obtaining human form was due to her having followers of her own bloodline, but this senior... I’m afraid I’m powerless."
"You brat, are you trying to shirk? It’s not solely her own bloodline that can create a body; any girl’s undefiled bloodline will work, even... my blood is viable!" Xi He said.
Ye Fan squinted at Xi He, hearing her aning: similar to how he helped Little Athyst acquire human form, requiring only the purest blood from a girl.
Ye Fan thought: "So Xi He has remained a maiden all this ti? Makes sense; she’s attracted to won, how could her body be ’polluted’ by male energy?"
