Sang Yuan saw Ye Fan walking towards Huan’er and understood vaguely. Ye Fan might have always considered Huan’er as Li Zhaojun’s substitute in his heart. At this mont, as elental forces and Pure Yang Spiritual Energy clashed, Ye Fan’s Divine Sense was still sowhat clear, but he could no longer distinguish between Li Zhaojun and Huan’er.
"What... what are you doing?" Huan’er saw Ye Fan approaching with a fierce aura, feeling utterly panicked. Initially, she intended to challenge Ye Fan, but now she had lost the confidence and courage she once had.
Ye Fan walked up to Huan’er. Huan’er had forgotten to use her newly learned skills to attack Ye Fan. She hadn’t yet ford a Golden Core and hadn’t even reached the Golden Core Stage. To Ye Fan, she was like an ordinary woman, harmless and unthreatening.
At this mont, Jiuyou Su Girl appeared beside Sang Yuan, looking at Ye Fan and then at Huan’er. Curious, she asked, "Has the mistress returned?"
"That’s not the mistress, it’s Huan’er!" Sang Yuan replied.
Jiuyou Su Girl curiously examined Huan’er, surprised that the Huan’er before her was indistinguishable from Li Zhaojun in both deanor and the Pure Yin Spiritual Energy she emitted.
Even she, the Su Girl, hadn’t realized that the woman before her was a counterfeit.
"What’s going on?" Su Girl asked in confusion.
Sang Yuan’s face bore a wicked smile, as if indicating that everything was under her control.
The Su Girl understood what was going on: Sang Yuan must have used so special thods to transform the sowhat immature Huan’er into a woman with the sa charm as Li Zhaojun by modifying her constitution. It wasn’t ant for Huan’er to completely replace Li Zhaojun but to comfort Ye Fan’s heart during the period of Li Zhaojun’s disappearance.
Ye Fan directly picked Huan’er up. Huan’er struggled briefly in his arms and then widened her eyes, staring up at Ye Fan. Though still an innocent young girl, she couldn’t comprehend why Ye Fan was doing this to her.
But she found Ye Fan very charismatic, almost like a hero. Though her heart vaguely desired to defeat this hero, it unconsciously surrendered to Ye Fan, enjoying the feeling of being cradled in his arms.
"Master, do you need to make arrangents for you?" Sang Yuan inquired as she approached.
Ye Fan replied with an air of arrogance, "No need, the wedding will proceed as planned. Just swap the person, and make sure the people observing are kept at a distance!"
This remark left Sang Yuan a bit ashad. Clearly, Ye Fan, even in this borderline uncontrollable state, could distinguish Huan’er from Li Zhaojun, implying that he was very aware that it was Huan’er before him and not Li Zhaojun.
"Understood, master, I will make the preparations imdiately!" Sang Yuan bowed and retreated, her expression slightly peculiar while watching Jiuyou Su Girl.
Previously, she was confident in her position by Ye Fan’s side. She felt her place was irreplaceable, but as the Sect Master Ling from the Earth Origin Sect and Jiuyou Su Girl both beca Ye Fan’s maidservants, her status gradually diminished. She no longer knew how to maintain her favor in Ye Fan’s eyes.
After Ye Fan left with Huan’er, Jiuyou Su Girl said, "What did the master an by his words just now? The mistress isn’t returning, yet the wedding is still on schedule?"
"Didn’t you understand? The master wants Huan’er to act as a substitute for the mistress. As long as others can’t recognize her, what does it matter? Huan’er is now assuming the mistress’s role and identity. What we should be truly concerned about is the mistress’s situation. Of course, the master hopes the mistress can be rescued before the wedding!" Sang Yuan explained.
Su Girl pondered and said, "You make the matter sound too easy. You must know the mistress might either still be trapped in those chaotic ti streams, unable to escape, or controlled by Xi He. You should be aware that Xi He is a formidable figure, her cultivation unattainable even by your mother god, Xuan Nu. Can you and I defeat her? Even if she’s defeated, as long as Xi He refuses to surrender her, she remains inaccessible!"
Sang Yuan asked, "Is there really no other way?"
"What other thods are there? Xi He’s goal is to make the master her pawn, following her commands. Her possessiveness is so strong, she’s even beco the master’s woman. She aims to beco the ruler of all living and deceased beings in the three realms. Can reasoning with such a woman be successful?" Jiuyou Su Girl said sternly.
Sang Yuan furrowed her brows and said, "Previously, the mother deity ntioned that to deal with Xi He, there is only one thod: awakening Pan Gu and Fu Xi, as only these two can completely subdue Xi He!"
Jiuyou Su Girl replied, "Then go and discuss this with the master to see if he agrees!"
...
...
Ye Fan left the heavenly city with Huan’er. He didn’t go to the Hundred Immortals Building nor returned to Earth, but arrived at a place both familiar and foreign to him.
This was a palace in the human kingdom of Han Zhu, which he once visited.
The palace was specially prepared by the Queen of Han Zhu for him. The people of Han Zhu, grateful that he awakened the queen from an illusion, prepared this palace to worship him, also hoping to receive more of his protection.
"Where are you taking ?" Little Huan’er, though young in appearance, had lively eyes. She looked at Ye Fan with a hint of playfulness, seemingly dissatisfied with his current attitude, and questioned him.
Ye Fan asked, "Are you afraid of ?"
"I’m not afraid of you. I’ll definitely defeat you. Why should I fear you?" Huan’er said as she suddenly leaned in to kiss Ye Fan’s face. Her cheeks turned rosy.
Despite Ye Fan’s internal energy being sowhat chaotic, he managed a smile and asked, "What are you doing?"
"No idea, I just wanted to kiss you, so I did. If you’re not happy, you can kiss back!" Little Huan’er exuded the pride of a victorious general, behaving like a little princess towards Ye Fan.
Ye Fan sighed lightly, "If I possess you, will you resent for taking you as soone else’s substitute?"
Huan’er seed oblivious to the aning in Ye Fan’s words. She blinked innocently and said, "Grandfather originally sent to you, so I’m already yours. Only if I defeat you can I leave your side! Hmph, that day is surely not far away!"
Ye Fan looked at Huan’er, the shadow of Li Zhaojun grew heavier on her, making it increasingly difficult for him to let go.
