Chapter 1942: Chapter 1938: Fu Xi vs Nuwa
Li Zhaojun and Min Shang saw Ye Fan coming, and they couldn’t tell if the Ye Fan before them was real, because they had both previously experienced illusions, and knew the potency of these ancient cultivators’ ability to create illusions. Even so, their hearts were filled with excitement; after cultivating in a closed space for several decades, they finally escaped and met the person they yearned for day and night. Even if it were an illusion, they felt happy.
Nuwa turned back to look at Ye Fan, and upon discovering Ye Fan bringing Xi He, she was furious: "Ye Fan, you dare come here?"
Ye Fan’s body moved closer, his voice also reached them: "Why wouldn’t I dare come? Two seniors, with the most prestige and status among ancient mighty beings, are actually here troubling my two companions beside me. The gap between their cultivation and yours is not small at all; isn’t this being a bit tyrannical?"
"You." Nuwa glared at Ye Fan, almost about to go kill him, but Fu Xi’s attitude remained much calmer; Fu Xi didn’t even seem to take the current situation too seriously.
Fu Xi smiled and said: "Young people seem to always have their own tempers, but Ye Fan does have a point. His woman was taken by you, making him feel quite useless as a man; I do understand some of his thoughts."
Nuwa angrily retorted: "You understand? Then why do you never empathize with me?"
Fu Xi glanced at Nuwa, with a seemingly smiling gaze, yet he remained silent, further aggravating Nuwa.
Nuwa almost wanted to strike Fu Xi, but she held back. At this moment, she wanted more to get hold of Li Zhaojun and Min Shang, but she also knew Ye Fan had mastered the power of time and space, making it easy to elude her. If Ye Fan resisted, she’d either have to kill all three of them or mutually perish, making it impossible to smoothly take Li Zhaojun and Min Shang away; using threats was equally meaningless.
"Ye Fan, you are truly tactless." Nuwa said, "I am here to take away the women beside you because among them, one is the chosen one. Are you intending to obstruct my rescue of the heavenly calamity?"
Ye Fan replied: "Rescuing the heavenly calamity is your ancient cultivators’ concern as well as mine. So why should I let my woman go with you? This joke is somewhat too big; I am here now to take back my woman, which isn’t a problem, is it?"
With Nuwa angry, she truly didn’t know what to say. Given her personality, she didn’t plan to reason with Ye Fan anymore; she intended to use force against Ye Fan, but Ye Fan’s cultivation had reached an unfathomable level. With just a strike, he’d make the first move, attacking Nuwa.
Nuwa’s anger surged, shouting: "What a tactless human brat, you dare strike at me? Hmph, don’t blame me then!"
As Nuwa said this, she was about to counter Ye Fan’s attack but found it was just a feint, and Ye Fan’s main goal was to rescue Li Zhaojun and Min Shang. In this situation, Nuwa angrily attacked Li Zhaojun and Min Shang as well, seemingly forgetting about rescuing the heavenly calamity, simply wanting the two human girls in front to feel her wrath.
Under her assault, seemingly no one could save Li Zhaojun and Min Shang, not even Ye Fan. As Li Zhaojun and Min Shang were at the brink of no escape, another force erupted forth, sourced from the radius of Fu Xi’s body; in other words, Fu Xi was helping Ye Fan and Li Zhaojun.
"Boom!"
Even though the surrounding cosmos was a vacuum, with hardly any energy bodies to be found, an explosion still created a loud sound, transmitted using Spiritual Energy as a medium. How powerful this explosion was, no one could know, but Ye Fan certainly felt Nuwa and Fu Xi’s true power; these forces, he was temporarily unable to challenge.
"What are you doing?" Nuwa glared at Fu Xi and asked.
Fu Xi responded: "That’s precisely what I should be asking you. You intended to kill them? Didn’t you say you wanted to take them back, find the chosen one among them, and save the heavenly calamity?"
"I’ve changed my mind now, okay? Why should I save the heavenly calamity? That was just Pan Gu’s proposal. Why not destroy it and be reborn? With the power of the heavenly calamity, even if we can’t fight it, the three of us won’t die. At that time, we can recreate the universe; why should we fight against the heavenly calamity?"
Nuwa was enraged; it wasn’t just about being obstructed, it was because she kept trying to help Fu Xi, but Fu Xi didn’t seem appreciative at all.
Fu Xi sighed: "Nuwa, I didn’t expect your thoughts to be so obsessed. While you created life, you don’t have the right to destroy it. Life’s meaning lies in facing all troubles and difficulties by themselves, not having others decide their life and death."
"Survival of the fittest; I created them, they can’t match me in cultivation. Killing them is akin to nature’s law. I haven’t violated the original intent of creating life. I just think these lives have irreparable flaws, and I want to make up for those flaws. Isn’t that alright?" Nuwa said.
Fu Xi didn’t want to say more; he looked at Ye Fan and said: "Ye Fan, what are you waiting for, why not leave with your women?"
Nuwa shouted angrily: "You’re not qualified to do that; I found this place first. According to your principles, these people should be handed over for me to distribute, not you. Fu Xi, I didn’t expect your stubbornness to reach this level. Originally, I did everything to help you; since you don’t appreciate it now, don’t blame me for lacking benevolence."
Even Ye Fan noticed, Nuwa and Fu Xi seemed adversarial now. Whether this was an act, he couldn’t tell, as the thoughts of ancient cultivators were too intricate.
Ye Fan said to Xi He beside him: "Take them back to Earth first, I’ll return shortly."
"Yes, master." Xi He immediately went and took Li Zhaojun and Min Shang away. Even if the two women wanted to leave with Ye Fan, their cultivation wasn’t as strong as Xi He’s, so they were taken away by Xi He, while Ye Fan remained, continuing to watch Fu Xi and Nuwa. He wanted to know how he could possibly confront these two mighty ancient deities.
"Why aren’t you leaving?" Fu Xi asked.
Ye Fan shook his head and said: "I don’t need to leave; I want to stay and try to defeat you. I don’t wish for my life to be granted by your charity!"
