Chapter 1894: Chapter 1890: Turning Against Each Other
Between Nu Ying and Shun, although they are in a romantic relationship, it may not count as a marital one. In the order of the ancient cultivators, men and women were together merely to be companions and to cultivate. Many people cannot last till the end because, over the long years, it’s hard to ensure their interests remain completely aligned, inevitably leading to parting ways due to certain matters.
In the past, there was the Yellow Emperor and Lei Zu, there was also Xi He and Lei Zu, and now there’s Shun and Nu Ying. Of course, not to mention Fu Xi and Nuwa, a special couple.
Ye Fan now watched this couple argue over a matter, even using him as a point of attack, felt a bit irritated in his heart. Ye Fan said, "Do you think by saying this, I will spare you? Nu Ying now lost to me, so she’s my captive. Shun, if you want to take her away, there’s only one way, which is to defeat me. Now I also make it clear, this time, if you don’t take her away, she temporarily belongs to me, so don’t blame me!"
"I’m not blaming you, now I have given her to you, Ye Fan, you should be glad after this woman is separated from me, who knows how many men she might have! She carries something on her that I cannot accept. Since she can assist you in cultivation, then I’ll gift her to you, you don’t need to give me any explanation, she is yours, do as you please, and after some time, I will come back to claim her. If you don’t give her back, so be it!"
After speaking, Shun’s body began to disappear suddenly, yet his voice continued, "But I must remind you, Pan Gu and Fu Xi are coming to Earth soon, hopefully in just a few hours, so you can enjoy the charm of Nu Ying, haha, Nu Ying, now that I have given you to Ye Fan, let’s see what you’ll do!"
After speaking, Shun’s figure truly disappeared, and at the moment of his disappearance, Ye Fan felt extremely annoyed, as if he had been fooled.
Master Ming Ye appeared beside Ye Fan, seeming equally annoyed, saying: "Ye Fan, I feel as if you’ve been completely toyed with by these ancient cultivators, will you let them both go now? I think... you could even kill Nu Ying! This woman poses a considerable threat to you, she’s using you, leading you to fight against Pan Gu and Fu Xi, or even letting Shun come to kill you!"
Ye Fan replied coldly, "I don’t care what Nu Ying and Shun are doing, what I must do is uphold my word. Since Shun doesn’t care about his woman, then don’t blame me for taking action against Nu Ying!"
"You... you better not do that, Nu Ying is dangerous!" Master Ming Ye said.
Ye Fan closed his eyes, his expression still showing signs of anger, and said, "Whatever I decide to do is entirely my decision. I don’t need you interfering, you’re not qualified to interfere with what I intend to do!"
Master Ming Ye glared at Ye Fan and said, "I cultivate pure Yin spiritual energy. Although I don’t know how this correlates with our cultivation methods from the ancient era, it appears now that our sects are complementary, and I’m offering to help you, aren’t you appreciative?"
"Apologies, my understanding of your sect is merely that my wife’s cultivation method complements mine, not yours. You’re not qualified to discuss this with me!" Ye Fan replied coldly.
Master Ming Ye glared at Ye Fan again, said nothing, and turned to leave the room, while Ye Fan turned and walked into another room. Inside was a temporary cage set up by Ye Fan, imprisoning none other than Nu Ying, who had been arguing fiercely with Shun earlier.
Ye Fan said, "Since even Shun doesn’t plan on saving her, you might as well not expect me to show her any courtesy!"
Nu Ying’s voice came from inside, "No one’s asking you to show me respect. Whatever you wish to do with me, do as you like, I won’t resist you, I may even cater to you..."
...
...
Shun left Earth, not returning to Pan Gu’s secret realm, harboring a sense of anger in his heart. He arrived at the Zuo Domain star system, intending to calm himself, when he sensed someone approaching.
This person’s cultivation was inferior to his own, so he wasn’t worried about any threat. When the person appeared, Shun recognized him as the Yellow Emperor, the man who had been defeated earlier by Ye Fan, and who had even been killed by Ye Fan once before.
"What are you doing here?" Shun glared at the Yellow Emperor because he thought the Yellow Emperor was unworthy of speaking to him, unwelcoming of this man who made him feel annoyed.
The Yellow Emperor wore a smug look, saying, "I didn’t expect you to be defeated by Ye Fan as well, quite a surprise to me. Now, although the elemental power within Ye Fan hasn’t recovered, apart from three first-level ancient powerhouses, others have consecutively failed before Ye Fan. Does that mean Ye Fan is almost invincible?"
"Are you here to mock me? It seems you also can’t defeat Ye Fan!" Inside Shun’s body, a force was condensing, "If I wanted to kill you, it would be easy!"
"Go ahead and kill me, then. You even gave your woman to Ye Fan, what wouldn’t you do? Killing me would serve to seal this matter, with no one to know... Haha, what a surprise, the famously affectionate Shun would actually do such a thing in the ancient cultivation realm... Alas, too bad, your cultivation isn’t as strong as Pan Gu and Nuwa, otherwise, you could master your own destiny, truly dabble among the flowers, and have all the women swooning for you, rather than having even your former women betray you now!" The Yellow Emperor’s words were harsh, aimed at provoking Shun.
Ye Fan’s words might be ignored by Shun, since Ye Fan is just a human, and Shun’s cultivation indeed lags behind Ye Fan.
But now, the words came from the Yellow Emperor, someone of lesser cultivation whom Shun has always looked down upon, making it unbearable for Shun. Moreover, the Yellow Emperor is not an ancient power in any case, posing no threat to Shun in the order of ancient cultivators.
"You are courting death!" Shun had already gathered a mass of power in his hands, and with its release, he could kill the Yellow Emperor.
The Yellow Emperor said, "If you want to kill me, go ahead, but I believe you won’t. If you collaborate with me, you can kill Ye Fan, and impose judgment on a human cultivator. Why kill me and forsake Nuwa? Nuwa’s intentions, in essence, don’t harm our ancient cultivation world; she just takes a rather peculiar approach. You’ve always served under Pan Gu and Fu Xi; now might be the right time to reconsider your allegiance!"
