Ye Xuan? Master Yue frowned slightly and shook his head. "Never heard of Ye Xuan."
Ye Xuan didn't seem bothered about it and simply smiled.
Master Yue clenched his right hand.
Boom!
A terrifying wave of energy swept toward Ye Xuan like a flood. The energy was so terrifying that the starry sky seemed to boil under its influence.
However, the energy vanished before it could reach Ye Xuan.
Master Yue and the three Path Creation Realm experts were shocked.
Master Yue stared deeply at Ye Xuan and said, "You've got some skills."
Ye Xuan laughed heartily.
Master Yue was about to speak, but a voice suddenly echoed in his mind. "Retreat."Retreat? Master Yue was startled, and then his face darkened. Retreat now? How can I accept that?
Ye Guan was severely injured and unable to fight. Although Ye Xuan seemed powerful, there were four of them against one—they had the advantage here!
However, he dared not disobey, as the voice had come from the Supreme Daoist!
"Retreat!" The voice sounded again in Master Yue's mind. "He's beyond you. I will handle it."
Master Yue frowned and glanced at Ye Xuan. He didn't believe it at all.
He didn’t know whether Ye Xuan could fight well or not, but he certainly seemed to have a powerful background.
However, Master Yue dared not defy the Supreme Daoist’s order. He glared coldly at Ye Xuan and said, "Withdraw."
With that, he and his companions disappeared into the end of the starry sky.
Ye Xuan didn’t chase them. His gaze was filled with both tenderness and heartache as he stared at Ye Guan.
Ye Guan's injuries reminded him of his past self.
Ye Xuan couldn't help but smile. Looking back now, the hardships of the past feel like they happened just yesterday...
However, Ye Xuan knew that his era had passed.
Just then, the space behind Ye Xuan trembled slightly, and a lady walked out of the spacetime rift.
A group of supreme elites walked out behind her.
The newcomer was Zhou Fan.
The supreme elites were astonished to find Ye Xuan, and they immediately surrounded Zhou Fan while staring warily at Ye Xuan.
Zhou Fan waved her hand, and the supreme elites backed off but remained extremely vigilant.
Zhou Fan walked slowly toward Ye Xuan.
"Your Highness, you should be careful..."
Zhou Fan shook her head slightly and explained, "It's okay; he must be a relative of Young Master Ye."
With that, Zhou Fan approached Ye Xuan and bowed slightly. "Senior, are you a relative of Young Master Ye?"
Ye Xuan walked up to Zhou Fan with the seriously injured and unconscious Ye Guan in his arms. With a smile, he asked, "Young lady, can you please take care of him?"
Zhou Fan looked at the unconscious Ye Guan and nodded. "Alright."
With that, Ye Xuan handed over the unconscious Ye Guan.
Little Pagoda transmitted, "Young Master."
Ye Xuan greeted, "Master Pagoda."
Little Pagoda hurriedly said, "No, no, just call me Little Pagoda."
Ye Xuan said, "I've received your teachings, so calling you Master Pagoda is more appropriate."
Little Pagoda hesitated briefly before asking, "What trick are you trying to employ again, Young Master?"
Ye Xuan had no idea what to say.
Little Pagoda recalled something and asked, "Young Master, why did you let them go?"
Ye Xuan looked at Ye Guan in Zhou Fan's arms and chuckled, "Qing’er has been in a bad mood recently. I decided to let her deal with them to assuage her fury."
Little Pagoda was about to speak when Ye Xuan looked up at the starry sky with a frown. After a while, he shook his head and smiled. "I have to go."
"Young Master, did you fight with Plain-Skirt Destiny?"
"Do you want to know?"
"Of course—" Little Pagoda couldn't finish his sentence because a sword had descended from the sky and pointed at the crown of his head.
The Path Sword!
Little Pagoda was shocked. "Young Master made me ask that question..."
Ye Xuan smiled and opened his palm. The Path Sword flew into his hand. He then looked at Zhou Fan and said, "I’ll have to trouble you, young lady."
Zhou Fan hesitated for a moment before asking, "Uncle, will you come back?"
With a gentle smile, Ye Xuan said, "You are a smart little girl. Meeting you is a blessing for this little guy."
Zhou Fan was delighted to hear that reply, as it was basically a confirmation that the man before her was indeed Ye Guan's father.
The confirmation wasn't what made Zhou Fan happy; rather, it was the recognition. She was happy to hear Ye Xuan's acknowledgement.
Ye Xuan took one last look at Ye Guan before looking up and smiling slightly. "It's here."
With that, he turned into a ray of sword light that disappeared into the depths of the starry sky.
As soon as he left, Zhou Fan's expression changed drastically. She turned around and saw something in the distance.
Dao Jun appeared next to Zhou Fan, and his eyes were fixed on the oncoming figure. With a grave expression, he remarked, "Someone powerful is tearing through the boundary of this universe and is heading this way..."
Zhou Fan wanted to say something, but Dao Elder exclaimed, "She’s here!"
Boom!
A blood-red saber aura shattered the void, heading straight for them.
Dao Jun's face changed drastically, and he shouted, "Ci Tian, it's your turn!"
Ci Tian of the Fantian Temple cursed, "Damn it!"
Although he was unhappy, he had no choice but to act. Whether Ye Guan lived or died didn't concern him at all, but if Zhou Fan were to die here, he'd die as well.
Ci Tian stepped in front of Zhou Fan and put his hands together. "Immovable Wrath!"
Boom!
A beam of golden light shot up from under everyone's feet, forming a massive golden light shield above them.
The saber aura finally landed.
Boom!
The golden light shield shattered, sending everyone flying away.
Zhou Fan protected Ye Guan in midair. When she finally stabilized herself, she sensed something and looked up. A thousand meters away stood a lady whose figure seemed to be made out of mist. She sported a glossy black ponytail, which was so long that it reached her waist. She was dressed in a blood-red robe, and a black sash cinched her slender waist, which seemed fragile at first glance. She wore red sandals with thick soles, and she had both an enchanting and defiant demeanor, but there was an amused smile tugging at her lips.
A blood-red saber was in her hand, but there was also a sword on her back.
The lady in a blood-red robe walked slowly toward them, and an overwhelming wave of pressure crashed down on everyone like a tidal wave.
Dao Jun exclaimed, "That's not her true body!"
Everyone present was shocked.
She wasn't in her true body, but just one strike had sent all of them flying away?
There were four Path Creation Realm experts among them, and the rest were Transcension Realm experts. Despite that, they actually couldn't withstand a single strike from this lady in a blood-red robe?
The lady in a blood-red robe asked, "Where's that man?"
Zhou Fan knew she was referring to Ye Guan's father and replied, "He had something to handle and will be back soon."
The lady in a blood-red robe sneered, "Will be back soon? Do you really think that you can scare me with that?”
The lady in a blood-red robe's gaze landed on Ye Guan in Zhou Fan's arms, and she slashed out with her saber.
A colossal saber aura tore through spacetime like a bold of lightning, heading straight for Zhou Fan and Ye Guan.
Dao Jun was terrified. "Abbott, block it!"
"Damn!" Ci Tian cursed, "Old Daoist, what am I in your eyes? A jack to hold up the sky?!"
Despite his words, Ci Tian stepped forward and put his hands together. He chanted a Buddhist scripture, and a wave of golden light burst out of him, creating a golden shield above everyone's heads.
Bang!
The golden shield shattered, and Ci Tian spat out a mouthful of blood.
Zhou Fan's eyes narrowed at the sight, and she decisively exclaimed, "Retreat!"
With that, Zhou Fan turned around and left with Ye Guan in her arms.
An elite in the Path Creation Realm opened a spacetime tunnel and protected them as they entered the tunnel.
Dao Jun and Ci Tian turned around to flee as well with Ci Tian spitting blood as he ran away.
The lady in a blood-red robe didn’t chase after them. Instead, she took out a sugarcane and chewed on it. After finishing the sugarcane, she picked up her blood-red saber and chuckled before taking a step forward.
BOOM!
The spacetime within a million kilometers around the lady in a blood-red robe imploded.
Dao Jun sensed something, and his eyes widened in disbelief. "Abbott, brace yourself!"
"Fuck! I-I'll burn you down!" Ci Tian roared. The spacetime tunnel behind them began to shatter inch by inch, and waves of horrifying energy swept across them.
They turned around to see a blood-red saber light flying toward them.
"She's going too far!" Ci Tian exclaimed with a grim face. Then, he stepped forward and put his hands together.
A thousand-meter-tall golden Buddha appeared behind him. He leaned forward, clenched his right hand into a fist, and punched out.
The golden Buddha behind him mirrored his actions, unleashing a punch of its own.
A myriad of Buddhist lights surged, and a deafening explosion echoed as the punch forced the saber light to come to a halt.
However, the wall of the spacetime tunnel suddenly collapsed.
Zhou Fan's face changed drastically, but Dao Jun stepped forward and stood in front of her. He formed hand seals and chanted an ancient incantation.
Moments later, a sword that seemed to be made out of a myriad of Daos manifested before them.
Boom!
The sword stopped the oncoming saber light, but it shattered. Unfortunately, there was another saber light.
Dao Jun conjured another sword, but it shattered once again, and the resulting collision thoroughly destroyed the spacetime tunnel.
When the spacetime tunnel collapsed, they found themselves in a desolate star field.
Dao Jun and Ci Tian formed a protective circle around Zhou Fan. A thousand meters ahead stood a lady in a blood-red robe with a blood-red saber in her right hand and a sugarcane in her left hand.
She took a few bites of the sugarcane before spitting it out.
The lady in a blood-red robe seemed to be planning on finishing her sugarcane before making a move.
Dao Jun stared intently at the woman and said, "She's toying with us like a cat toying with a mouse!"
Everyone’s faces turned grim. What an arrogant lady.
"She must be a top-tier elite from the Evil Dao Alliance..." Dao Jun muttered. He then turned to Zhou Fan and said, "Your Highness, we must find a way to return to the Great Zhou."
Zhou Fan replied, "The Great Zhou Divine Army will come to us in just fifteen minutes!"
Dao Jun was shocked. "You used the Great Zhou’s Army Token?"
Zhou Fan nodded.
Dao Jun thought for a moment before nodding. "I guess we had no choice."
Just then, the lady in a blood-red robe finally finished her sugarcane. She wiped her mouth clean and looked at Zhou Fan.
Without a word, she charged forward, and a blood-red saber light flew toward Zhou Fan and the others.
"Amitabha!" Ci Tian put his hands together, and a thousand-meter-tall golden Buddha manifested, protecting everyone in its arms.
Boom!
The golden Buddha blocked the saber light, but cracks appeared all over it.
And that was when another saber light came crashing down...
Boom!
The golden Buddha shattered, sending Ci Tian flying thousands of meters away.
He spat a mouthful of blood upon coming to a halt.
The lady in a blood-red robe shook her head. "Trash, all of you."
"And you're just the worst!" the lady in a blood-red robe exclaimed while staring at Ci Tian.
"Fuck you!" Ci Tian's aura surged crazily; he had ignited his fleshy body!
Everyone had no idea what to say.
