Chapter 1885: Chapter 1881: You’re on Your Own
Xi He went to help Ye Fan transfer the people from the Pan Gu Secret Realm to Earth, while Ye Fan continued cultivating on Earth.
At this moment, the entire cultivation world was in turmoil, with many people waiting for the final results to unfold. Naturally, these were people who had immense confidence in the ancient cultivators.
Nuwa was not in the Pan Gu Secret Realm at the moment, nor was she in the ordinary universe. She was in a very confined environment, like a small isolation chamber in another realm within the universe, watching Emperor Jun who had just returned from Earth. Emperor Jun had just experienced failure, carrying a bit of annoyance himself.
"...Nuwa, that’s the general situation. Now that Pan Gu and Fu Xi have awakened, many things are no longer simple. I wonder if you have any instructions?" Emperor Jun inquired at last.
"I didn’t expect you couldn’t defeat Ye Fan, whose cultivation was greatly diminished. Perhaps you’ve just awakened, and your own cultivation hasn’t recovered, thus severely affecting your basic combat capabilities!" Nuwa said disappointedly, "If given another chance, would you prove yourself?"
Emperor Jun replied, "According to Nuwa’s wishes, should I perish alongside that human?"
"I haven’t asked you to perish with him, but you should not return defeated either. Your failure is a great humiliation to us ancient cultivators. Do you know how many people could defeat Ye Fan? And where does your cultivation rank among the ancient greats? If I sent someone else, even Shun or someone else might have defeated Ye Fan, instead of returning in failure!" Nuwa said, closing her eyes.
Emperor Jun, with a tint of disappointment on his face, said, "I thought Nuwa could understand my plight and my actions, but it seems Nuwa wants to send me to death, to perish with Ye Fan. Since Nuwa can easily defeat Ye Fan, why not do it personally and instead rely on us, the lesser cultivators?"
Nuwa spoke coldly, "Emperor Jun, is this the way you speak to me? You are stubbornly fixating on certain problems. I am telling you these things to teach you the lesson of knowing shame and then rising in courage. If you fundamentally find me unreasonable, you can choose to join Pan Gu or Fu Xi. Since they are already awakened, their cultivation surpasses mine; perhaps my plan to reshape order won’t be able to be implemented. Following me seems to bear no results for you. Go, as if I never saw you or awakened you!"
Emperor Jun turned away unceremoniously, "Since Nuwa has decided this way, I will not argue further with Nuwa. From now onwards, I have no relation with Nuwa, and as for whom I choose to join, Nuwa need not be concerned!"
Nuwa did not seem very angry, as if she had already anticipated this result.
As for where Emperor Jun would go, she didn’t care at all, and she didn’t plan to attack Emperor Jun from behind. She just watched him leave and slowly closed her eyes.

...
Ye Fan emerged from his residence on Earth. After previous battles with Nu Ying, Lei Zu, and Emperor Jun, the villa had suffered several major catastrophes, with many things turned into dust.
Ye Fan addressed the female disciples of the Grand Cold Sect like Song Mei, "For now, leave here. I’ve found a new refuge for you on Earth. Once there, focus on cultivation. After the cultivation is over, whether you choose to leave or continue staying for refuge, that’s your own matter. I am now overwhelmed and you must fend for yourselves. With your cultivation, leaving Earth won’t be difficult, and returning to your original place in the Left Domain galaxy may take some twists, but within a year or two, you can absolutely return, which does not require me to assist you, right?"
"Ye Hierarch, what do you mean? Bringing us here, even humiliating us somewhat, now letting us go without caring for us at all? You promised to help our Grand Cold Sect, and we remember it. The enemies you face now are of the ancient great kind, and we know we’re incapable of opposing them, but we don’t want to be discarded like pawns." Song Mei said sternly.
Master Ming Ye coldly said, "Don’t overestimate yourselves; what use is it for you to stay? Can you help Ye Fan? If you stay, you’re merely causing trouble, without even knowing how you died in the end. You know those people are ancient greats, with cultivation such that one finger could crush you. Ye Fan has protected you well before, but if you want Ye Fan to continue protecting you, that’s just creating trouble for Ye Fan. Go where you came from; that’s your destiny!"
Ye Fan looked at Master Ming Ye and said, "You can leave too. There’s no need to criticize them. In truth, your cultivation is also pathetically weak before me, and I don’t want to expend too much effort in protecting you. Regarding Zhao Jun and Min Shang’s whereabouts, after I handle the ancient greats issue, I will naturally find you. You can go now!"
"Ye Fan, you are now ungrateful. When your cultivation couldn’t be mobilized, it was I who helped you, even sacrificing my own cultivation, yet now you dismantle bridges after crossing rivers and want me to fend for myself too? Fine, I will leave, and see how you eventually die!" Master Ming Ye seemed to say somewhat petulantly.
Ye Fan had barely anyone by his side, and Lei Zu and Nu Ying had been defeated by Ye Fan, with Nu Ying remaining powerless to leave after Ye Fan asked her to go.
At this moment, Nu Ying was still waiting for someone to rescue her. While Ye Fan spoke with Master Ming Ye, it was evident that a powerful force was approaching him.
This force was of ancient great cultivator caliber, and Ye Fan couldn’t help but close his eyes; he hadn’t expected his troubles to be so vast, with a new problem arising after solving one, as there were ten ancient greats, and aside from the Xuan Nu he controlled, it seemed others wanted to compete against him and kill him.
Regarding those beyond ancient greats, the numbers were even greater, with Nu Ying and Lei Zu being representatives of these people, whom Ye Fan simply couldn’t defeat.
"He finally came!" Nu Ying said coldly, sitting on the ground.
"Who do you mean? Is it Pan Gu or Fu Xi? Or perhaps Nuwa?" Ye Fan asked.
"If it were truly those you mentioned, I’d be happier. But the person here now is not them; he’s a significant trouble for you as he will definitely compete fiercely with you for my sake, which I think you already know who he is, right?" Nu Ying replied.
Ye Fan coldly spoke, "That’s your man, Shun, isn’t it?"
