Chapter 1892: Chapter 1888: Faint Clues
Ye Fan wanted to awaken the elemental powers within him, but for now, it seemed impossible. He wanted to transform the Pure Yang spiritual energy within him into a more powerful force. Yet, without Li Zhaojun and Min Shang by his side, it now seemed like wishful thinking.
At this moment, Ye Fan felt completely like a person who had lost his way. Without the assistance of these two forces, it was utterly impossible to contend against someone of Pan Gu and Fu Xi’s cultivation level. He felt that his future might be controlled by these ancient mighty beings, and he also sensed the limitations of being human—everything depended on the founders for maintenance.
In the second realm of the secret realm, Zhao Tianya was still striving to find Ye Fan’s whereabouts, but at this point, there was no trace of him, and even Tantai Wanrong’s whereabouts had become a mystery. She even enlisted Qin Mengyao and Yang Xiaoting to search together. Since all three of their cultivation levels had reached around the Mahayana Realm, flying to search for something was no longer a difficult task. Going out to search could also serve as a way to relax.
Unfortunately, after several days of searching, there was still no trace of Tantai Wanrong. The three began to realize that Tantai Wanrong seemed to have completely disappeared.
"... Sister Ya, do you think it might be Brother Fan who came and took Aunt away? Isn’t it said that only Brother Fan can come here? Brother Fan had told us before that once he finished his tasks, he would come to find us!" Qin Mengyao appeared very anxious as she spoke.
Zhao Tianya said, "I’m completely unaware of Ye Fan’s situation now because he has gone missing. Your aunt’s whereabouts have also become a mystery. If we can’t find them, it means we might be trapped here forever!"
"That’s not really a big problem. As long as Brother Fan and Aunt can come back, it doesn’t matter where we live. But does Brother Fan like to hide? I feel it’s been a long time since we parted, Brother Fan would definitely not get into trouble, but what if he doesn’t like us anymore and abandons us?" Qin Mengyao appeared very anxious as she spoke.
Yang Xiaoting comforted, "Yaoyao, don’t overthink it. Brother Fan wouldn’t abandon us. You must know that Brother Fan has always been very good to us, and we’ve done nothing wrong. We always belong to Brother Fan, and he will definitely return!"
"But it can’t be that there is no news at all. It’s already been more than half a year, during which I’ve been waiting day and night, but there’s no news of Brother Fan. If something happened to Brother Fan, how would we live here? In the past, we only had a few decades to live, but now we have a lifespan of a few hundred years. Wouldn’t we feel very lonely with such a long life?" Qin Mengyao said.
Qin Mengyao’s words had a certain impact on Yang Xiaoting, but it seemed that Zhao Tianya was more affected at this time. Zhao Tianya started holding her head, as if thinking of something horrible, making her feel unbearable pain.
Qin Mengyao concernedly asked, "Sister Ya, what’s wrong? Don’t scare us... We only have you, a relative, by our side now..."
"I... I’m fine... just feel like something has entered my mind, it’s like a feeling has taken root in my brain, causing immense pain!" Zhao Tianya continued holding her head as she spoke.
"Then we should return. Sister Ya, you should rest well. As for finding Aunt and Brother Fan, you can take a break from that. Once Brother Fan completes his tasks, he will surely return and help us do some things... like finding Aunt. With Brother Fan, finding Aunt will be much easier!" Qin Mengyao said these words with great conviction, even though she herself almost didn’t believe it, "Sister Ya, once you’re well again, we can see Brother Fan..."
"Who wants to see him? I’d rather he be dead. Right now, I just want to find your Aunt. Later, we will find a way to leave this damn secret realm. Once we leave here, we can start anew!" Zhao Tianya gritted her teeth as she spoke.
Yang Xiaoting added, "Sister Ya, don’t be stubborn. Brother Fan can return at any time, but if he sees you in this state, he will be saddened. Brother Fan always has you in his heart!"
Qin Mengyao gave Yang Xiaoting a look and said, "Let’s not talk about Brother Fan anymore. I feel that the more we talk, the worse Auntie Ya’s condition becomes. We might as well drop it for now, and we can talk when there’s a chance later... The priority now is to find clues about Brother Fan..."

Ye Fan stayed on Earth, knowing that people within the second realm of the Pan Gu secret were very worried about him.
Inside there not only was Lu Xiaoman, but also Zhao Tianya and others. However, according to Xi He’s explanation, Mo Xiaoyan and Tantai Wanrong were missing, and currently, Ye Fan had no clue as to where these two women had gone.
"Young master, everyone has been settled, and everything on Earth is calm without any signs of a heavenly tribulation, and those ancient mighty beings have not appeared on Earth again, so you should not worry!" Sang Yuan appeared behind Ye Fan and said.
Ye Fan asked, "Are there any updates from inside the Pan Gu secret?"
"Returning to the young master, everything within the Pan Gu secret is very stable, and there is no news of any faction’s force intruding inside. On the contrary, in some cosmic spaces around Earth, some residual spiritual energy forces have been discovered, indicating that some cultivators intended to come to Earth, yet seemed to be hindered by some force!" Sang Yuan reported.
Ye Fan nodded and said, "If they’re just some average cultivators, there’s no need to worry. It’s only if their powers are too formidable that they could impact us. Therefore, you should return to the first realm of the secret realm and monitor the situation there closely. As for matters on Earth, you need not worry about them for the time being!"
Sang Yuan was somewhat anxious. She wanted to request to stay, but seeing Ye Fan’s expression, she knew she couldn’t persuade him at this time—whatever she said would be in vain.
"Young master, may I dispatch someone else?" Despite understanding the difficulty of her request to stay, Sang Yuan still mentioned this.
Ye Fan looked her over and said, "You staying... isn’t necessary. I can handle things here well. I am currently unable to enter the Pan Gu secret realm, so the situation within worries me even more. Now that Xi He is in the second realm of the secret realm protecting my people, you, in the first realm of the secret realm, can help me gather intelligence. Your cultivation is high; sending ordinary cultivators is ineffective!"
"Yes, young master!" Sang Yuan paid her respects, walked over, knelt behind Ye Fan, embraced Ye Fan’s leg as if it was a gesture of reverence, then stood up and left.
