After everything ended, Ming Wu was completely unable to move. Ye Fan first sent her to the bedchamber to rest before leaving the main hall of the palace to go to another palace to take Huan Er and Su Nu away with him.
"Where... where did you go?" Huan Er was delighted to see Ye Fan and imdiately grabbed his arm and asked.
Ye Fan smiled and pinched Huan Er’s cheek, saying, "What, were you afraid?"
Huan Er pouted and said, "I... I don’t know where I can go. This place... is not my ho!"
Saying this, Huan Er glanced disdainfully at Su Nu. Ye Fan guessed that perhaps Su Nu had said sothing, causing Huan Er to be so alard.
Ye Fan said, "Let’s go. I’ll take you back to Tiancheng. You’ll live there in the future. I’ll arrange a place for you in the Hundred Immortals Building where you can rest and cultivate as you wish!"
...
...
Ye Fan brought Huan Er and Su Nu back to Tiancheng.
His next step was to prepare for a showdown with Xi He. He wanted to rescue Li Zhaojun and the won around him.
He could not allow Xi He to threaten him in this way because he knew Xi He must have imprisoned Li Zhaojun and might even kill her to sever his feelings for her.
When Ye Fan returned to Tiancheng, Sang Yuan hurried out to welco him, saying, "Master, the two old madams have been waiting for you for a long ti!"
Ye Fan thought of Qiao Feixuan and Ning Huwen’s usual earnest instructions to him and felt a sense of guilt for having "lost" Li Zhaojun. He hadn’t figured out how to face Qiao Feixuan and Ning Huwen, so he preferred to temporarily avoid them for now.
"Tell them I’ll find Zhao Jun first, and once I find her, I’ll co back. You can go ahead and arrange the wedding in a few hours. If it really doesn’t work out, let Huan Er take Zhao Jun’s place," Ye Fan said sowhat helplessly. "Arrange for the guests to be far away. I’ll use a Spiritual Energy barrier to cover the wedding venue, to prevent anyone from disrupting the proceedings!"
"Yes, young master, I will handle it right away!" Sang Yuan had no doubt about Ye Fan’s decisions and quickly went to arrange the specific details of the wedding as per Ye Fan’s instructions.
Ye Fan then left Tiancheng with Su Nu. This ti his target was to head to Yuzhou, where Xi He had previously been in seclusion—a city built out of illusions by Xi He.
Although Xi He had completely destroyed Yuzhou, Ye Fan still needed to track Xi He’s tracks, believing he could find Xi He using the Tongling Mirror.
...
...
Li Zhaojun had been living with the "Ye Fan" in the illusion for two days.
Here, ti passed quickly, making Li Zhaojun often feel dazed and lacking spirit when she went to work.
The people she encountered in her work seed to be those she had t before, but she always felt sothing was off because she felt there was sothing about her destiny she had forgotten.
Li Zhaojun’s spiritual power was nowhere as strong as Ye Fan’s, so after being imprisoned by Xi He with an illusion, she quickly beca consud by it. But these illusions were nothing but mirages—visible and tangible but ultimately false and not truly existent.
"Director Li, there are so docunts here that need your signature!" Hu Jing appeared beside Li Zhaojun, handing over so docunts.
"Oh?" Li Zhaojun took the docunts and, without even looking, signed them. Just as Hu Jing was about to take them away, Li Zhaojun asked, "What are these?"
Hu Jing curiously asked, "Director Li, don’t you rember? These are the docunts for approving the new biological drug, which we’ve discussed several tis with foreign companies before?"
"Is that so?" Li Zhaojun strained to recall, but she couldn’t rember such a thing.
In reality, for Xi He to completely drown Li Zhaojun in her illusion, she had to implant many non-existent "mories" into Li Zhaojun. Although Li Zhaojun ca to believe in the reality of these illusions, her spiritual power was still strong enough to reject the implanted mories regarding mory issues.
Once Li Zhaojun encountered a contradiction in her thoughts, she wouldn’t accept what was happening before her and would begin to doubt the world she was in.
Hu Jing suggested, "Director Li, these are the details of several etings; perhaps you should review them carefully again?"
"No, I’m having a headache. You can go out first!" Li Zhaojun said, and Hu Jing left with the docunts.
Li Zhaojun walked to the window, looking at the outside world, feeling everything was normal again. However, she couldn’t understand why she had such a severe headache earlier, preventing her from focusing on anything.
"I’m not dreaming, so why do I have these strange thoughts? Right, how is Ye Fan? I’ll call him; he might be busy now!" In the illusion, it was Li Zhaojun’s first ti being separated from Ye Fan. Before, Ye Fan was always by her side, so she hadn’t been able to think of anything else.
Now that Ye Fan wasn’t by her side, she began to have doubts about the illusion.
When she picked up her phone, she found that Ye Fan’s number wasn’t among her contacts.
"That’s not right. I used to have Ye Fan’s number, and I also had his WeChat and other ways to chat with him, so why are they all gone?" Li Zhaojun hesitated, feeling another throbbing headache, "Why did I forget his number when I used to rember it so clearly?"
Xi He couldn’t erase so of Li Zhaojun’s latent mories, nor could she implant many non-existent mories into Li Zhaojun. This brought Li Zhaojun to the brink of collapse, leaving her unsure of how to face what was happening around her.
...
...
In the ruins of Yuzhou, within the secret realm of Pan Gu, Ye Fan felt the scorched earth around him.
There were living beings around, but these people seed like wandering souls or ghosts. After disappearing from Yuzhou, they completely lost their mories, including their once-happy families and lives, all of which Xi He had forged with illusions. Once all the illusions were shattered, Xi He used powerful spiritual power to erase these people’s mories completely.
Ye Fan was very afraid Xi He might use the sa trick on Li Zhaojun, so he was following the traces left by Xi He’s presence, guided by the Tongling Mirror to find Xi He.
"Master, there seem to be only people who have lost their mory around here, and no sign of Xi He!" Su Nu, thinking her cultivation was high enough to detect what Ye Fan could not, searched but couldn’t find Xi He and reported her findings to Ye Fan, aning to advise him not to waste his efforts.
Ye Fan continued to keep his eyes closed, ignoring Su Nu.
After a long while, Ye Fan suddenly looked in a direction and said, "I know where Xi He has hidden people; it’s in the undersea cave beneath the Dead Sea!"
