Ye Fan was enraged by Xuan Nu.
He couldn’t recall how many tis he had been used and deceived by Xuan Nu. This woman had taken advantage of him repeatedly to accomplish her goals, and now she didn’t even hesitate to humble herself to beco his servant just to gain his trust. Yet, the mont she turned away, Xuan Nu would continue with her sches.
In Ye Fan’s eyes, Xuan Nu was a woman unworthy of trust.
Ye Fan could have killed Xuan Nu directly, but considering she was the mother of his friend, Lan Jing, and still one of the top ten ancient cultivators, Ye Fan felt that he couldn’t kill her lightly. He didn’t want to disrupt the order of the ancient cultivators, as he didn’t know what changes killing Xuan Nu might bring, which could potentially throw the cultivation world into chaos.
But now, he wasn’t going to just let Xuan Nu go.
"Ye Fan, what are you going to do?" Xuan Nu sensed imminent danger when she saw the crimson glow in Ye Fan’s eyes.
Ye Fan sneered, "You have pledged a Blood Oath with , willingly becoming my servant. Do I need to discuss with you what I am going to do to you?"
From Ye Fan’s gaze, Xuan Nu already understood what Ye Fan was planning to do next.
She could put on an act of calmness, but inside, she was extrely anxious because she didn’t know if she could accept what she was about to face.
"Ye Fan, I advise you to calm down... You co any closer, I will kill you..."
Xuan Nu tried her usual tactic of threatening Ye Fan, but at this point, she had completely lost her ability to resist in front of Ye Fan. No matter what she did now, she couldn’t stop Ye Fan.
Ye Fan said, "Instead of thinking about how to kill , you should think about what you plan to do in the future and whether you can still hide it from ..."
As Ye Fan approached Xuan Nu, she conjured a white long sword in her hand, attempting to strike Ye Fan. Yet, because she had sworn a Blood Oath with Ye Fan, the sword vaporized in the air, neutralized by Ye Fan’s elental power before it could even touch him. She tried to launch another attack, but found that her spiritual energy couldn’t form in Ye Fan’s presence.
Without Ye Fan doing anything, Xuan Nu’s own spiritual energy prevented her from attacking her Blood Oath master.
The spiritual energy instinctively treated it as an attack on herself, akin to suicide, resisting and disobeying her command.
Moreover, she couldn’t muster the intent to kill Ye Fan in her heart. It was as if, despite wanting to kill Ye Fan, when it ca down to it, she couldn’t rally her spiritual energy, nor could she make up her mind.
But by then Ye Fan had confidently stepped in front of her, without giving Xuan Nu any room to negotiate, he directly picked her up.
In Ye Fan’s embrace, Xuan Nu felt like she was just an ordinary woman, as if she had never been part of the cultivation world.
"Let go!" Xuan Nu tried to speak to Ye Fan with a strong tone, but she had already lost all pretense in front of him. At that mont, Ye Fan couldn’t sense any resistance left in Xuan Nu.
Ye Fan didn’t know where Lan Jing was now; just as he feared, Lan Jing had likely been used by her mother, burdened with the task of opening the gateway of ti and space.
Ye Fan said, "Xuan Nu, I think I finally understand why you left Lan Jing on Earth, so she could absorb the elental energy of Earth’s guardian. Then, you’d have Lan Jing use that energy to awaken Pan Gu and Fu Xi, thus opening the celestial gate you wish to open..."
"What are you talking about... I didn’t hear it!" Xuan Nu, unable to lie to her master, could only feign ignorance in front of Ye Fan.
But Ye Fan had figured it all out, and sneered, "I used to think you were a caring mother, loving Lan Jing, which earned you so respect from . But once I realized you were rely using Lan Jing, your image crumbled in my heart. I even doubt whether Lan Jing truly is your daughter... but that no longer matters..."
With a hissing sound, the last blue barrier around Xuan Nu shattered into dust. Before Ye Fan’s elental power, Xuan Nu seed extrely fragile, completely unable to resist.
Ye Fan seed like a god towering above, while Xuan Nu was simply a very ordinary woman.
"Ye Fan, you will regret this!" Xuan Nu felt her body spinning in the air. She tried to use spiritual energy to regain her balance, but found her spiritual energy instantly vacated her.
In front of Ye Fan, even spiritual energy abandoned her.
No matter what threats she uttered, she couldn’t change the fact that she was now Ye Fan’s servant.
Ye Fan didn’t need to feel any pity for Xuan Nu. When Xuan Nu’s body hit the ground, she felt she landed on an icy surface, and at that mont, Ye Fan was approaching her one last ti.
Just when Xuan Nu thought she still had a chance to escape, Ye Fan grabbed her by the hair, ready to take the final step.
At that mont, a voice suddenly called out: "Stop!"
Xuan Nu’s mind went blank; she had actually given up resisting against Ye Fan, and the voice didn’t bring a sense of relief.
Ye Fan looked up at the woman who suddenly appeared, sneering, "You finally co out to help her, huh?"
The newcor was none other than Xi He.
...
...
At that mont, Xi He still dressed in her usual Daoist robe, exuding charm.
But she had always been an anomaly among the ancient cultivators, with no one willing to befriend her. Her cultivation was higher than many ancient cultivators, ranking sixth or seventh, yet she unsurprisingly wasn’t chosen as one of the top ten powers.
Xi He always wanted to protect soone, not Leizu whom she possessed, but Xuan Nu.
However, Xi He was rely a third-generation cultivator created by Nuwa, thus she felt unworthy of protecting first-generation cultivators like Xuan Nu, who were ford from the feminine spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
After Ye Fan finished speaking, he stood up.
The rough thods he used on Xuan Nu earlier were rely to provoke Xi He to appear.
Xi He closed her eyes and said, "Master, you have already gained our loyalty, so why harm your servant?"
"You think she is loyal to ?" Ye Fan replied, "If she were loyal, why is she still plotting to summon Pan Gu and Fu Xi? She wants to change the world’s order. Whether she wants to kill Nuwa or , I cannot let her succeed because I want to maintain the current order, allowing living beings to live as peacefully as before!"
Xi He said, "I cannot control your thoughts, but I must save Xuan Nu because she is innocent!"
