Hu Jing heard her sister’s words and appeared very disdainful, saying: "I’m just cursing you, hoping you’ll die sooner, so you won’t bother my family!"

Ye Fan said: "Curse me however you like, I’m just here to tell you the current situation. As for how you’ll feel about me in the future, I won’t force it, because I think our relationship should end here. Some things need time to slowly settle... alright then, I won’t disturb your life, I’m leaving!"

When Ye Fan turned to leave, Hu Jing seemed a bit reluctant because Ye Fan’s demeanor showed a certain depth, a feeling Hu Jing hadn’t anticipated.

Hu Jing also resented herself for still having feelings for Ye Fan, but regardless of anything, Ye Fan was the man she once loved. It’s just that they have no chance to be together now, and Hu Jing feels she won’t regret it because there has always been a barrier between them. Moreover, Hu Jing can’t accept Ye Fan being such a cultivation fanatic.

"Ye Fan, then I wish you good luck!" Hu Jing said with her eyes closed, pulling her sister along, saying, "Let’s go back, look after mom, and don’t go out to play. We’re in a strange place now, and it wouldn’t be good if someone abducted you!"

"Oh, got it, sister, I’ll look after mom!" Hu Jing’s sister seemed very sensible and said.

...

Ye Fan left Earth with Mingye Shangren. He originally wanted to meet many people, but just seeing Hu Jing once made him feel overwhelmed by many things.

Hu Jing gave him a feeling that was too cold. When they faced each other, Ye Fan even felt that Hu Jing was like a stranger, as if they had never met, and he could even sense some of Hu Jing’s inner thoughts. Although Hu Jing still had some feelings for him, there was never an opportunity for them to come together.

"Ye Fan, it seems you care for that girl a lot. Why didn’t you directly tell her, or, like with me, forcibly possess her?" Mingye Shangren said.

Ye Fan said: "I don’t want to betray my own thoughts because there needs to be some feelings between two people. Her heart is not with me, that’s the thought of us Earthlings. As a cultivator, you naturally don’t understand the importance of emotions in human life! I don’t need to explain too much to you!"

"But you still explained to me!" Mingye Shangren said, "Indeed, I got to understand human thoughts more. It seems ordinary humans are really complex creatures, always doing some useless labor. I truly don’t know what you humans are really thinking. It seems the ancient prophecies are correct; humans are not perfect beings, too emotionally driven, hence humans are destined to perish, needing a more advanced species to replace them!"

Ye Fan squinted his eyes, examining Mingye Shangren, and said: "You, being human yourself, seem not to like being human much?"

"I’d rather not be human because the things I think about differ from ordinary humans. My goal is cultivation, so clear-cut. You also know humans are often not perfect in doing things, and you as a cultivator seem to be the representative of such imperfect beings! I hope you can escape the confines of human thought in the future..." Mingye Shangren seemed to be persuading.

Ye Fan shook his head and said: "My matters are none of your concern. I will continue to cultivate; you can watch from the side. If you plan to escape, I’ll continue to torment you... but I won’t kill you!"

...

...

The Yellow Emperor was also searching for Ye Fan’s whereabouts.

The Yellow Emperor can enter the Pan Gu Secret Realm, and after searching there, he confirmed one thing: with Ye Fan’s cultivation level, he simply can’t enter the secret realm. It’s likely Ye Fan is in the Immortal Realm or somewhere in the ordinary universe now.

"Ye Fan is obstinate and self-willed, he is certainly trying to resist the ancient cultivators now. Finding him is the best opportunity to kill him!" The Yellow Emperor arrived on Earth, where Ye Fan grew up and lived, "Once I can kill Ye Fan, everything will be rewritten, and the ancient cultivator’s order will be preserved. I am here to help Nuwa Fulfill all of this... but where exactly is Ye Fan now?"

As the Yellow Emperor was searching for Ye Fan, suddenly a figure landed in front of him. The Yellow Emperor was not overly concerned about this figure because he knew the person’s cultivation level was not capable of confronting him.

"Xuan Nu, since you became a puppet of the humans, your cultivation seems inferior to mine, yet you dare appear before me. Have you decided to join forces with me to kill Ye Fan?" the Yellow Emperor asked.

"You’re too delusional!" Xuan Nu said, "Whatever I decide to do, it’s for my own interests first. Tell me, what benefits do I gain from killing Ye Fan?"

"At least Nuwa will help you achieve your goal, which is better than begging everywhere without anyone aiding you!" the Yellow Emperor said. "Don’t expect me to help you, because I simply can’t. Unless you can help me kill Ye Fan, or hand Ye Fan over to me!"

Xuan Nu sneered: "If Ye Fan falls into your hands, it means I will surely die. From now on, I’m here to follow you, to prevent you from killing Ye Fan. As long as I can find Ye Fan, I can accomplish my own things and keep my life. Do you think I will help you?"

The Yellow Emperor’s expression was cold and said: "Xuan Nu, refusing a toast only to drink a forfeit, do you think I will let you stay by my side? I will kill you!"

"Then try!" Xuan Nu said, "I won’t deny, after your rebirth, your body carries a life force granted by Nuwa. Perhaps you currently possess some power, possibly enough to kill me, but such actions will only lead to mutual destruction, and your cultivation won’t improve significantly anytime soon. Remember, I won’t allow you to gain higher cultivation. As long as you and I mutually destroy each other, you won’t be able to kill Ye Fan, ha ha!"

The Yellow Emperor was very angry and said: "Xuan Nu, you’re intentionally opposing me, right?"

"It’s not that I’m opposing you, it’s that your actions have threatened my interests. I must penalize you. No matter where you go now, I will be beside you until you find Ye Fan. I will show you the consequences! I also know turning you back is impossible; then I’ll continue to fight against you and see who suffers in the end!" Xuan Nu said.
