Ye Fan searched around the ancient relics at the North Pole, but still found no trace of Li Zhaojun. At this ti, Sang Yuan, who was in the secret realm of Pan Gu, also did not notice any sign of Li Zhaojun.
Previously, Ye Fan had also checked inside Xi He’s grand hall. Not only was there no sign of Li Zhaojun, even Xi He had disappeared without a trace. Ye Fan couldn’t even find a shadow of Xi He’s presence on Earth.
"Could it be that Xi He took her won and completely left Earth, to live in seclusion on an uninhabited planet, creating her own world?" Ye Fan wondered in his heart.
Unable to find Li Zhaojun, Ye Fan could only go to discuss again with the mysterious woman, as it seed she was the only one who might know Li Zhaojun’s whereabouts.
"Master, the spiritual energy on Earth seems to be even thinner than before," Jiuyou Su Girl said. "Perhaps there is so spiritual body on Earth that has absorbed a large amount of spiritual energy."
"Not the mysterious woman?" Ye Fan asked.
Jiuyou Su Girl shook her head and said, "The mysterious woman’s cultivation does not require the absorption of Earth’s spiritual energy; there is a crisis approaching on Earth!"
Ye Fan said nothing, and with Jiuyou Su Girl, he went directly above the East China Sea and entered the underground ocean.
Unlike before when Lan Jing had to open the earth’s crust, this ti, Ye Fan would directly squeeze through the crack, and then the seawater would solidify, preventing subsequent seawater from flooding in.
When Ye Fan arrived at the underground ocean, the first thing he saw was the large blue crystal.
Every ti Ye Fan saw the large blue crystal, he felt different, because the energy of this blue crystal fluctuates between strong and weak. Previously, the large blue crystal had even cracked, but now it seed to be rejuvenated.
"You ca?" a voice ca from afar.
Ye Fan looked up and saw the mysterious woman approaching. As she passed by the large blue crystal, the crystal’s energy intensified, indicating a certain affinity between the mysterious woman and the large blue crystal.
"Didn’t you say earlier that you would help find my wife? I’ve co to ask what’s going on!" Ye Fan said calmly.
"Shouldn’t you apologize to first before seeking my help?" the mysterious woman said. "You injured before, and until now my cultivation hasn’t recovered, that’s your rudeness. I hope to receive your sincere apology!"
Ye Fan nodded and bowed, "Then I apologize to you first, Senior Mysterious Woman!"
The mysterious woman glanced at the woman behind Ye Fan with a slight cold smile on her face. She even harbored so killing intent towards Jiuyou Su Girl, causing Jiuyou Su Girl to take a step back fearfully.
"Did you bring her over to show off to ? The Su Girl known among ancient cultivators is notorious for being self-serving, yet you still keep her by your side. Are you anticipating her betrayal and letting her stab you?" The Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman didn’t address the matter of Li Zhaojun first, instead targeting her forr "good sister" Jiuyou Su Girl.
Ye Fan said nothing, but Jiuyou Su Girl said, "Sister, I did indeed wrong you in the past, but there’s no need to keep targeting . Now that I follow the master, I am dedicated to serving him wholeheartedly, without wavering!"
"Words like these, no one believes them anymore, they’re just empty talk!" The mysterious woman said disdainfully, "Ye Fan, since you ca to to inquire about the girl nad Li’s whereabouts, have you prepared for the terms of exchange with ?"
Ye Fan said, "We can negotiate on anything except for that treasure and helping you open the Gate to the Celestial Realm."
"Why won’t you open the Gate to the Celestial Realm? It’s part of the ancient prophecy. Besides, Pan Gu and Fu Xi could help you in the future, not be your enemies, because you are the one they chose!" the mysterious woman said.
Ye Fan shook his head and said, "You misunderstood one thing, Senior. I wasn’t chosen by anyone; I’m just an ordinary mortal. I must carve my path. As for the so-called Gate to the Celestial Realm, allowing those who have achieved enlightennt to return to the living realm is not beneficial. There are many powerful cultivators whose presence would disrupt the order of the living realm!"
"So, you’re not willing to help ?" the mysterious woman asked.
"There’s no room for negotiation!" Ye Fan said.
With a cold smile, the mysterious woman said, "Ye Fan, aren’t you willing to make so compromises for the girl nad Li?"
"If compromising ans causing calamity to the entire living realm, then I’d rather not compromise!" Ye Fan replied sharply.
The two who were previously discussing cooperation were now on the brink of confrontation.
The mysterious woman said, "Ye Fan, you thought highly of yourself before, but I’m telling you, here, no one can match , not even you. So if I were to force you to agree, you would have no choice but to comply!"
"Is Senior’s intention to deceive into coming here and then force to accept your conditions, to help you summon Pan Gu and Fu Xi, and open the Gate to the Celestial Realm?" Ye Fan asked.
The mysterious woman gritted her teeth, finally saying, "Yes and no. I want to help you now because the girl nad Li’s next target is my daughter!"
"Lan Jing?" Ye Fan frowned.
"That’s right," the mysterious woman said, "My daughter is innocent; she doesn’t understand human emotions. Her only attachnt is you, because she too feels that subtle connection with you. If the girl nad Li targets her, she will be defenseless!"
Ye Fan shook his head and said, "No, Lan Jing can differentiate between good and evil. If Zhao Jun really targets her, she will react!"
The mysterious woman sneered, "That’s what’s terrifying about the young girl. What she’s doing now, in her eyes, is good, so there is no guilt in her heart. Ye Fan, you have to co with now to et my daughter, and we can talk about the rest later!"
"Is that the condition?" Ye Fan asked.
"No," the mysterious woman replied, "The specific conditions can be discussed after saving my daughter, because Lan Jing is innocent in all matters. If you don’t agree... I will never forgive you!"
Ye Fan frowned. Why should helping or not helping matter if the mysterious woman forgives him?
Ye Fan thought, "The mysterious woman’s way of threatening people is quite unique. Is she trying to imply a special connection between us?"
With confusion and incomprehension, Ye Fan asked, "Where should we find Zhao Jun?"
"The secret realm!" the mysterious woman said. "Though my daughter is still in the secret realm, her thoughts and soul are being eroded by so kind of illusions. This is that little girl’s sche, trying to make my daughter gradually indulge in illusions! My daughter is her final target. Once my daughter is under her control, so things may be irreparable!"
