Ye Fan brought people back to Earth, mainly to have the Xuan Nu send the people he had previously gathered to the Pan Gu secret realm.

Xuan Nu complained, "I am a dignified ancient great being, and you have me doing these trivial tasks? What do you take me for?"

"You’re unwilling? Then I won’t force you. From now on, don’t follow me; I’ll naturally find Xi He or Sang Yuan to help me accomplish all of this. You can figure it out yourself!" Ye Fan said sternly.

Xuan Nu appeared very angry, but she had no choice and could only comply. She knew Ye Fan’s status was not what it used to be; now it was easier for Ye Fan to kill her, and there was no need for him to keep her. If she left Ye Fan, her mission would never be completed, and she might die due to some unexpected event caused by Ye Fan. Moreover, Ye Fan could kill her any time through the Blood Oath, leaving her feeling unsafe.

She could only continue to help Ye Fan to earn his trust, though inwardly, she was unwilling to acknowledge Ye Fan as her master.

"Mr. Ye, do you have any other instructions?" Sun Ning asked after noticing Xuan Nu had left.

Ye Fan appeared relaxed and said, "I’m cultivating here to make my enemies come to me. As for you, you don’t need to stay here anymore. You’ve done well in helping me. This time, you will also go to the Pan Gu secret realm and temporarily won’t return to Earth!"

"Yes, Mr. Ye!" Sun Ning saluted and left the private villa, leaving only Master Ming Ye and others inside after she departed.

Master Ming Ye said coldly, "Ye Fan, are you really planning to attract those enemies here? If you want to seek death, I won’t stop you, but you cannot drag us down with you!"

Ye Fan replied, "I’m not asking you to die with me. Anyone who wants to leave can go now; I won’t stop you. But if you stay, perhaps I can help you improve your cultivation. Only then can you guarantee an increase in cultivation. You can choose for yourselves!"

Master Ming Ye hadn’t expressed her stance yet, but the three disciples of the Big Cold Sect, including Song Mei, Bing Xuan, and Bing Ting, walked towards Ye Fan first. Clearly, they were the first to accept Ye Fan’s conditions.

Finally, Master Ming Ye was somewhat angry and said, "I never thought I would listen to a madman. Perhaps it’s because I lack the ability to protect myself now!"

Ye Fan showed a cold smile. He clearly did not intend to let Master Ming Ye leave because the two women beside him, Li Zhaojun and Min Shang, were still under her control and hadn’t been found yet.

...

...

The first to learn about Ye Fan cultivating on Earth was Xi He.

Xi He had been searching for Ye Fan, and now knowing Ye Fan was on Earth, she realized her search direction had been wrong.

She thought, "I’ve been to Earth several times before but couldn’t find the master. Why is the master suddenly on Earth now, cultivating so openly? Isn’t he afraid of being attacked by enemies? Now the Yellow Emperor, Nuwa, and others are watching closely, along with newly awakened ancient cultivators!"

With some confusion, she wanted to find Ye Fan for clarification, but she feared Ye Fan might see her as a major threat, so she quietly arrived on Earth, reaching Hua Hai City.

After reaching Hua Hai City, she found everything was peaceful, aside from the powerful cultivation of Ye Fan forming a kind of guidance, and there was no threat to Ye Fan from any cultivation here. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

"What’s happening? Is it possible others can’t sense the master’s cultivation and dare not challenge him? The master’s cultivation only consists of the remaining Pure Yang spiritual energy, which is impossible to compare with ancient cultivators. What are they afraid of?" Xi He was even more puzzled about what was happening, thinking she had made mistakes, unaware that Ye Fan had already defeated the Yellow Emperor, still mistakenly believing Ye Fan’s biggest enemy was the Yellow Emperor.

"What are you doing here?" Suddenly, a voice came from behind Xi He. She was startled, turned around, and saw Xuan Nu looking at her.

Xi He examined Xuan Nu and said, "You’re on Earth? I should be asking what you’re doing here! Acting secretively, did you get the master’s consent?"

"Haha!" Xuan Nu seemed very proud and said, "I just met Ye Fan. But you coming to Earth and not daring to see Ye Fan suggests you harbor guilt in your heart, which is why Ye Fan is so cautious of you and didn’t seek you out after his disappearance!"

At this moment, Xuan Nu attempted to stir up conflict between Xi He and Ye Fan, hoping they would argue. She knew Xi He’s cultivation was superior to hers and the Yellow Emperor’s, even higher than Ye Fan’s. If Xi He could threaten Ye Fan, Xuan Nu might have a chance to obtain the method to awaken Pan Gu and Fu Xi from Ye Fan. Xuan Nu was never completely loyal to Ye Fan; her existence was for the mission, not to serve anyone.

Xi He said coldly, "I don’t need to explain my purpose on Earth to you. I assume the master has entrusted you with tasks, yet why are you hanging around here? If you don’t go, don’t blame me for disciplining you on behalf of the master!"

Xuan Nu gave a cold laugh and finally left. However, Xuan Nu had already informed Ye Fan that Xi He had arrived on Earth. Ye Fan was not interested in Xi He’s purpose for coming.

Ye Fan continued to cultivate in the villa. It wasn’t long before Xi He’s figure appeared outside the villa. Given the strong cultivation of the newcomer, even Master Ming Ye and Song Mei sensed something was wrong. Master Ming Ye stood up and said, "Another powerful cultivator, should be an ancient cultivator... otherwise, the cultivation wouldn’t exceed mine! Who is this person? Ye Fan, you’re still cultivating?! Get up, an enemy has arrived!"

Ye Fan remained unmoved, as if the arrival had nothing to do with him, and Xi He was already at the door, opening it and stepping in.

Once Xi He reached a point not far from Ye Fan, she suddenly knelt down and respectfully saluted, "Servant Xi He pays respect to the master!"

Only then did Master Ming Ye and Song Mei realize that the newcomer was also Ye Fan’s servant, and her cultivation was clearly higher than the previously appeared Yellow Emperor and Xuan Nu. Xi He possessed strong elemental power, which Master Ming Ye previously thought existed only in Ye Fan.

Ye Fan then opened his eyes, glanced at Xi He, and nodded slightly, "Hm!"
