Chapter 1941: Chapter 1937: Human Girl
Li Zhaojun and Min Shang were on their way back to Earth, but before they could find its exact direction, they were intercepted by someone.
It was a woman, exuding a very arrogant aura and highly accomplished in cultivation. In the vast universe, the idea of a "chance meeting" is almost impossible, which indicates that this woman intentionally sought out Li Zhaojun.
Upon realizing this, Li Zhaojun was filled with concern because she knew the woman’s cultivation level must exceed her own, although she was not entirely sure who the woman was.
"Sister, who is she?" Min Shang asked curiously, sizing up the woman before them.
Li Zhaojun slightly shook her head, her gaze fixed on the woman, but she saw the woman didn’t come too close, only speaking in a light and casual tone: "I am Nuwa, you should have already heard my name."
Li Zhaojun said, "You are an ancient cultivator, of course I’ve heard your name. Why have you come before me now? Is it to kill me or do something to me? Has the heavenly tribulation already occurred?"
Nuwa laughed, "Little human girl, you sure have a lot of questions. Do you think I need to answer them? You don’t think about your own identity; do I need to answer such questions from a little human girl like you? Haha!"
Just then, a man’s voice came, "You’d better answer her, or she won’t understand the significance of talking to you here. If you want to use her to help you, you should follow the most basic principles and not speak to her in a condescending manner."
As he spoke, a man emerged from the cosmic space, not handsome, but carrying a fierce aura, making Li Zhaojun feel surrounded by enemies. Nuwa alone was no match, and with the addition of this mysterious man, she wondered if she could escape alive.
"Sister, another one has come; I can’t sense their cultivation level, they must be very dangerous," Min Shang’s sense of vigilance was gradually increasing.
The newcomer was Fu Xi, but he said, "You don’t need to worry. The heavenly tribulation has not yet occurred. You’ve been imprisoned, though it seems a long time. In cosmic space, only a few days have passed. During this time, Ye Fan continues to make efforts against the heavenly tribulation. Your return is timely!"
"Who are you, and what do you mean?" Li Zhaojun did not know how to face the two formidable enemies before her.
Nuwa laughed, "Little human girl, let me tell you this: I want to see if you’re the chosen one. If you are, then you might bear the responsibility of saving the heavenly tribulation, but you can’t go back to see Ye Fan. Only after you save the tribulation do you have the right to meet him. From now on, I will control your freedom, but only if you are the chosen one. If not, I won’t interfere with your freedom, and you can go wherever you want."
Min Shang angrily said, "Want to restrict our freedom? No way, sister, let’s fight them!"
Li Zhaojun said, "Both of you are seniors, and we cultivators have no grievances with you. Why use us and imprison us? If you created humans just to imprison them, then you ancient cultivators are too rude and tyrannical! Now, my sister and I will definitely not listen to you, unless you can kill us!"
Fu Xi said, "I told you before; you can’t handle the women around Ye Fan like ordinary humans. These women carry a stubborn aura, passing down from Ye Fan!"
Nuwa angrily said, "I should say they’re all spoiled by Ye Fan. If I don’t teach them a lesson, they’ll think they can challenge us ancient cultivators!"
Finished speaking, Nuwa directly attacked Li Zhaojun, a powerful force like the tide instantly enveloping Li Zhaojun. Li Zhaojun felt unable to escape, but at that moment, it was as if she and Min Shang shared a mental connection, their powers merging to form a resistant force.
Though small, the force wasn’t enough to kill them, since Nuwa wasn’t aiming to destroy them, and the force immediately combined with Nuwa’s attack to form a powerful explosive force.
"Hmm?" Although this explosive force had little impact on Nuwa, it somewhat surprised her.
"Indeed it is." Nuwa finally said, "These two girls carry a force that can suppress us, not from cosmic space but from a higher level creator’s power..."
Nuwa was about to step forward to capture Li Zhaojun and Min Shang, when Fu Xi asked sternly, "What are you doing?"
Nuwa replied, "I want to subdue these two young girls; are you going to stop me?"
"Don’t make repeated mistakes. You know imprisoning them is useless. Even taking them away won’t ensure they’ll listen to you and help you tackle the heavenly tribulation. Without Ye Fan’s power, they can’t unleash the chosen one’s abilities. You’re doing all this in vain!" Fu Xi held Nuwa’s arm.
Nuwa appeared disappointed and said, "I didn’t expect that you’re still hindering me now. Why don’t you think about stopping Pan Gu? After the heavenly tribulation ends, how will the next tribulation be handled? Will you listen to Pan Gu then, imprisoning Ye Fan, or listen to me, rewriting human order? Why don’t you aspire to be the one in power, instead of following a tyrant like Pan Gu?"
Fu Xi sighed, "I admit, many things you’ve done are for me, but I must tell you, not everything needs your arrangement. I have my own choices. What I want is to complete the salvation of the heavenly tribulation, because it concerns the interests of us ancient cultivators."
"I don’t care, I want to take them back. All conditions show these two human girls are most likely the chosen ones." Nuwa said domineeringly, side-eyeing Li Zhaojun and Min Shang.
Just then, a voice from afar sounded, seemingly ethereal: "So the two seniors are making things difficult for my women."
This voice was a great encouragement to Li Zhaojun and Min Shang, as it was the voice of Ye Fan.
A figure appeared in cosmic space, it was Ye Fan, and beside him was Xi He.
