Chapter 2185 - 2181: Unshakable

Xi He and Xuan Nu arrived on Earth and informed Li Zhaojun of the specific situation regarding Ye Fan’s disappearance.

Li Zhaojun’s face appeared very pale, and after looking at the two for a long time, she finally said, "Ye Fan disappeared without any warning, and you have no idea where she might be either?"

"Yes, mistress. After tracking her, I found not a single clue about the master’s whereabouts. Before the master disappeared, Fu Xi merely tried to provoke her with words. However, I think this shouldn’t be the primary reason for her disappearance," Xi He replied.

"No matter the reason for Ye Fan’s disappearance, finding Ye Fan is now of utmost importance. I do not wish any harm to come to Ye Fan. You must find her at all costs, otherwise... I truly don’t know how to face those who care about Ye Fan. You are aware that now, only Ye Fan can save us from the heavenly catastrophe!" Li Zhaojun stated urgently.

Xi He bowed and said, "I understand what the mistress means, but there are some things... that I cannot control..."

Li Zhaojun looked at Xuan Nu and Xi He and said, "Although you are ordered by Ye Fan, you need not see me as a superior or anything like that. Your status in the cultivation world is far more superior than mine. I have no qualification to command you!"

"The mistress shouldn’t say so. The mistress is after all the master’s wife, and will be our superior in the future..." Xi He said humbly.

Xuan Nu was not as straightforward as Xi He. Her attitude towards Li Zhaojun was somewhat indifferent. Li Zhaojun continued, "It is imperative to find Ye Fan now. I can’t leave Earth at the moment, so this matter will be left to you. I hope you can find Ye Fan in the shortest time possible. This is my greatest hope. If you cannot find Ye Fan, the whole world may face destruction... This is not what I wish to see!"

"Yes, mistress!" Xi He bowed again and then took Xuan Nu to leave Earth.

After leaving Earth, and even the solar system, Xuan Nu became somewhat aggravated and said, "What was the point of going to see that little human girl? Just to show her our weakness and incompetence so she could feel superior to us? I truly don’t understand your thought process. We knew beforehand that meeting her would be pointless, yet you insisted on creating unnecessary trouble!"

"You might think it’s pointless trouble, but I find it very meaningful. You should also reflect on how much you’ve experienced!" Xi He responded, "In front of the master and mistress, do you think you have any status or dignity left? Simply preserving your own life is already a great thing. If you still contemplate fulfilling your inner ambitions, that is truly laughable!"

"Stop talking as if you have no ambitions in your heart. Whom are you trying to deceive? Do you think that I don’t know your thoughts? Among everything done before Ye Fan came, many things were orchestrated by you. Ye Fan’s true wish is just to live an ordinary life. Confronting the heavenly catastrophe was being forced by circumstance, and you don’t even consider what can be done now to help him break free... His reluctance to compete for fame and fortune is definitely good for us; at least we’re not controlled by him. Don’t you think so?" Xuan Nu argued.

"Whatever you think is entirely your affair, don’t bring that to me," Xi He said.

Xuan Nu also became very angry, saying, "Forget it. I know you have schemes in your heart, and you know I’m not willing to be Ye Fan’s puppet. Let’s stop discussing these issues. I just want to ask you: Do you have any way to find Extreme Trouble? It seems we can’t do anything now, and finding Ye Fan is nearly an impossible task. Considering his cultivation level, why would we be able to find him?"

Xi He shook his head, "You know we can’t do anything else now. If you don’t go find the master, what can you do? Finding the master is the only thing we can do right now. The master carries too many burdens, and all we can do is use our abilities to change something... The master is out to change the entire order, and we’re merely helping wherever we can!"

"You speak as if you’re exceedingly noble, but you know all of these are just your wishful thinking. Ye Fan’s status is so high that no one can shake it. If we help him now, we must see whether he’ll accept it!" Xuan Nu said, "Whatever you plan to do, I won’t interfere with you. I will now return to the Pan Gu Secret Realm to evaluate the situation there. That was the painstaking effort forged by the ten ancient great ones, including myself. I don’t want to see the Pan Gu Secret Realm destroyed!"

"Whatever scheme you’re plotting doesn’t need to be shared with me, I won’t accept it anyway!" Xi He replied, "Since you don’t want to go with me to find the master, then we are now completely going separate ways. Good luck to you!"

Having said that, Xi He quickly left the place, preventing Xuan Nu from tracking her.

"Xi He clearly has some scheme to complete, feigning concern about finding Ye Fan. Does locating Ye Fan truly benefit you?" Xuan Nu sneered, "Forget it, since she’s already gone, I won’t bother with her further. At present, finishing my own agenda swiftly is crucial. Even if Ye Fan doesn’t return, this order must not be disrupted. That is what I’m going to do!"

In the end, even Xuan Nu left the spot, vanishing from sight.

...

...

In a certain part of the universe, avatars of Pan Gu and Nuwa are discussing matters concerning Ye Fan.

"...Pan Gu, you should be aware that Ye Fan has disappeared again. Ye Fan’s disappearance is not a good development for us. His disappearance this time may allow him to accumulate power, and then we may be unable to defeat him!"

Nuwa’s avatar appeared very cautious, even carrying a sense of crisis awareness.

Pan Gu was originally meditating and cultivating. Upon hearing this, he opened his eyes and said, "Do you think you can find Ye Fan? Ye Fan might currently be utilized by the power of the heavenly catastrophe. Perhaps the catastrophe has already made compromises; maybe now the catastrophe doesn’t aim to destroy all power in the universe but intends to use Ye Fan to kill me, change the ancient cultivators’ order, and then have Ye Fan come forth to rule the universe... Ye Fan’s whereabouts are irrelevant to me."

"How can it be irrelevant? Don’t you want to kill him?" Nuwa’s avatar inquired curiously.

"Wanting to kill him won’t matter! Ye Fan’s cultivation is so high that no one can shake him. It coincides with the cosmic cycles. I just fear that I have already become a sacrificial lamb, unable to challenge Ye Fan." Pan Gu showed some sorrow on his face.
