Chapter 2224 - 2220: Bearing Power

Sang Yuan liked to demonstrate her wisdom in front of Lan Jing, as it showed her to be more valuable than Lan Jing.

Lan Jing was not very clear about how to be human, and Sang Yuan was not a wise human either. Even if Ye Fan thought Sang Yuan ambitious, he didn’t say anything, as long as Sang Yuan didn’t violate any basic principles, he wouldn’t forcibly intervene.

"Then what... can I do now?" Lan Jing asked, confused, unsure of her own worth.

After losing her sense of direction, she felt as if she were trapped in a mire.

"You don’t need to do anything right now," Ye Fan said. "Stay inside the Pan Gu secret realm. If another catastrophe occurs, your power can be useful. I’ll return then, but the fifth catastrophe seems a while away."

"You..." Lan Jing wanted to say something, but realized Ye Fan had already stood up, and she wanted to go with him.

Ye Fan waved his hand, saying, "I have things to do myself. Lan Jing, handle the Pan Gu secret realm with Sang Yuan. I want to return to Earth to take a look, Lei Zu, you’re coming with me!"

"Why take me?" Lei Zu’s tone still somewhat unpleasant. "Whatever happens on Earth has nothing to do with me. What do you want me to do there?"

Ye Fan coldly replied, "What I do doesn’t need your guidance. You just need to follow my orders!"

He finished speaking, and before Lei Zu could react, he had already restrained her, taking Lei Zu away from the Pan Gu secret realm.

...

...

Sang Yuan and Lan Jing descended the Hundred Immortals Building, with Lan Jing feeling utterly lost, unsure of her future.

"Lan Jing, you should feel lucky. At least the young master is still treating you well. Not every man is like the young master," Sang Yuan seized the chance to say unpleasant words to Lan Jing, even she herself didn’t know the real purpose.

Her thought was simple, she wanted to use Lan Jing to cover some things, and as long as Lan Jing hadn’t gained Ye Fan’s full trust, the future matters of the Pan Gu secret realm would fall to her to handle.

"It seems Ye Fan hasn’t recovered his memory yet," Lan Jing mused. "I can feel Ye Fan’s sincerity. There’s something pure and flawless within him. I believe Ye Fan can bring light and hope..."

Sang Yuan laughed, "Seems you’re confident in the young master, but why do you look gloomy now?"

Lan Jing glanced at Sang Yuan and shook her head. "I don’t even know myself. Seeing him now saddens me, but I’m not sure where the issue is. Maybe I... have other matters with him unexplained..."

"You’ve been with the young master for a while, you should have your own opinions, can’t rely on him for everything. Now you can rebuild the Pan Gu secret realm yourself, like when you commanded myself and the people from the seven sects. That’s you being true to yourself," Sang Yuan said.

"No need," Lan Jing shook her head. "When Ye Fan returns, I’d rather listen to him and hope to get more help from him. That’s what I want... You better not interfere with me using your ways. Sang Yuan, I can feel your ill intentions!"

Sang Yuan was startled, then realized the girl in front of her, looking delicate and harmless, actually had significant cultivation, and Lan Jing had the ability to see through a person’s inner good and evil.

Sang Yuan’s expression slightly froze, she forced a smile and said, "Whatever you say, Lan Jing, I now have to follow the young master’s orders to help those ordinary folks. Whether you accompany me or find your own things, it’s up to you!"

"Mm." Lan Jing didn’t plan to go with Sang Yuan, she felt Sang Yuan wouldn’t help her, and might even threaten her.

...

...

Ye Fan only took Lei Zu back to Earth.

Upon arriving, Ye Fan didn’t enter the Chinese nation but went to the Arctic.

After checking Earth’s condition, he felt a sense of relief. He said, "Since I left, Earth has remained the same, which comforts me."

"It’s your people maintaining an array, you’re aware," Lei Zu said.

Ye Fan nodded slightly. "I knew earlier. I haven’t gone to see them because I haven’t recalled my past. Meeting them now might seem unfair to them, I’m thinking of ways to recover my memory!"

"Have you found a way? You better recover your memory quickly so I can find my daughter!" Lei Zu said sternly.

Ye Fan pondered, "To my knowledge, it’s because my body is too frail to contain the power inside, causing my current condition. As my power grows, my body can’t handle such strong strength, causing my memory to keep losing..."

Lei Zu curiously asked Ye Fan, "How can you strengthen your body so it can contain this power?"

Ye Fan slightly shook his head, "Some things aren’t simple. Trying to regain memory, how easy is that? What I can do now is improve my power, but ultimately, I’m just a human shell!"

"Ha, you finally realized your weakness. To put it plainly, you’re human, your thoughts are limited by human ideas," Lei Zu was angry. "You treated us female cultivators as ordinary women, like human women to you... Humph, only you could think of this, a shame to us."

Ye Fan squinted at Lei Zu, "If you’re not a woman, then what are you?"

"You!" Lei Zu glared at Ye Fan, then looked elsewhere, ignoring Ye Fan.

Ye Fan said, "Now I don’t want to argue. If my body could be enhanced, it must surpass an ancient cultivator, even Pan Gu may not bear such power. But how can I obtain a body stronger than Pan Gu’s?"

Lei Zu said disdainfully, "Dream on! Pan Gu became what he was through gradual improvement over years... Do you have that time to improve?"
