Invincible Young Master in the City-Chapter 1489 - 1485: Ye Fan’s Breakthrough

Ye Fan was just an ordinary human cultivator, and even Xi He didn’t expect that Ye Fan’s power had already been able to defeat the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman, who was an ancient mighty being.

Six hours later, Xi He also finally recovered her cultivation, but she just stood aside, looking at Ye Fan with a suspicious gaze, as if she were reassessing Ye Fan, trying to truly understand what kind of person Ye Fan was.

The Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman lay on the ground, her lips bleeding uncontrollably, yet her life was not in danger. At this moment, Su Girl managed to stand up and walked to Ye Fan’s side. The look she gave Ye Fan this time no longer had the arrogance it once did, but was purely devout.

"Senior Mysterious Woman, why do you do this?" Ye Fan withdrew his power and still presented himself as very calm, as if defeating the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman was just an ordinary occurrence.

The Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman remained silent for a while, and the spiritual energy within her was chaotic. She could never have anticipated that she would lose to Ye Fan.

Ye Fan slowly walked towards the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman. Xi He suddenly flashed in front of Ye Fan, blocking his path, and said, "Ye Fan, what do you intend to do to the Mysterious Woman?"

At critical moments, only Xi He would stand out to defend the Mysterious Woman. In times of danger for the Mysterious Woman, only Xi He would come forth to help her. Although Xi He didn’t support the Mysterious Woman in certain matters, her concern for the Mysterious Woman was still evident.

"Do you think I will kill her, or do something to her?" Ye Fan retorted.

At this moment, Ye Fan’s demeanor no longer seemed as peaceful as initially perceived. Xi He even felt that Ye Fan already possessed the capability to stand on equal footing with her. She had to take a negotiating tone with Ye Fan, no longer able to use the previously coercive language.

Xi He shook her head and said, "Regardless of what you plan to do to her, I advise you not to do it. She is an ancient mighty being and supports Pan Gu and Fu Xi. Killing her or offending her won’t benefit you!"

Ye Fan looked at the woman who was once very close to him and felt as though he was speaking to a stranger. Ye Fan previously had some compassion for Xi He as a woman, but now, it was difficult for him to feel any pity for this dangerous woman.

"Then I’ll leave her to you!" Ye Fan said, "Senior Sister, Su Girl, let’s go!"

Ye Fan didn’t want to linger any longer. He could only define his relationship with Xi He as one of mutual needs. Xi He was an ancient cultivator, and her wise mind was not something ordinary people could compare to. Ye Fan didn’t consider himself wiser than Xi He, and he wouldn’t hope to completely conquer Xi He.

Even the things Xi He mentioned about helping him in certain matters later, he didn’t expect.

Wu Ding and Su Girl cautiously observed Xi He. In their view, Xi He was very dangerous. Only Ye Fan could walk away without concern, leaving his back turned to Xi He.

Only after Ye Fan took Wu Ding and Jiuyou Su Girl out of the underground palace did Xi He approach the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman. The latter spat out a mouthful of blood and coldly said, "Are you satisfied? Is this the outcome you wanted to see!"

Xi He shook her head and said, "I won’t let anyone hurt you!"

"You yourself are hurting me, what right do you have to say such things? You sacrificed yourself to save her and even became subordinate to Ye Fan. Haha, do you want to become a joke in the ancient cultivation world?" The Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman remained defiant.

Xi He said, "Mysterious Woman, I won’t argue with you. Maybe losing to Ye Fan distorted your usual thoughts. What I can tell you is that I will protect you now. I’ll take you away..."

"No need!" The Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman struggled to stand up from the ground, "Just take your beloved woman and leave, don’t think I’ll collude with you. My matters aren’t finished, I’ll continue to find Ye Fan until I get him to compromise and help me!"

Xi He said, "Don’t you understand yet? Ye Fan is no longer the Ye Fan he once was. With the aid of six crystals, his cultivation has skyrocketed. He’s no longer someone you can easily subdue."

"I only see that you used your body to create a cauldron for him, allowing his cultivation to break through. I also see you subordinating yourself to a human," the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman gritted her teeth and said, "What you can do, I can also do. I understand Ye Fan better than you do. Besides, I still have my daughter; she will help me!" 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

"Alas!" Xi He sighed deeply with a powerless expression and said, "Mysterious Woman, don’t lose hope in the world due to your unsuccessful journey. Don’t you know there are people who care about you in this world?"

"Save your concern; I don’t need anyone’s sympathy!"

The Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman’s attitude towards Xi He was very firm. She walked out of the hall and quickly disappeared from Xi He’s spiritual sense detection range.

...

...

Ye Fan left the Arctic, he didn’t return to Hua Hai City nor did he go to the Pan Gu secret realm. He now also needed to regulate his own state to stabilize the spiritual energy in his body.

At this moment, his spiritual energy was also slightly chaotic. It was his first time harnessing elemental power, still not mastering it fully. Although defeating the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman had caused his essential spiritual energy to rampage inside him, it was also because he had just absorbed the Pure Yang spiritual energy from Xi He’s body, needing to regulate it for calm.

The place Ye Fan chose was on Earth’s Kunlun Mountain.

This was where he first went to the Pan Gu secret realm. The familiar cave here was now empty, with no signs of cultivators coming and going. This was because the passage between Earth and the secret realm had been completely sealed, and even late-phase combined-stage experts couldn’t traverse it.

Ye Fan was cultivating, Su Girl was also cultivating. Ye Fan’s spiritual energy was chaotic from defeating the Mysterious Woman, while Su Girl was injured by the Mysterious Woman.

As for Wu Ding, she was on the side acting as a protector, but actually, she had lost her ability to assist Ye Fan. With Ye Fan’s current cultivation, there were few things she could help with. Wu Ding also knew she had lost her value; the only reason Ye Fan kept her around was simply because she was a woman.

Su Girl’s healing time was relatively short because her injuries were not very severe.

Ye Fan was purely cultivating, one cycle after another, his cultivation speed extremely fast. After Su Girl stood up, sensing Ye Fan’s cultivation speed, even she was amazed.

Several hours passed before Ye Fan finally opened his eyes. At this moment, his eyes were no longer as before, and he seemed to have a faint glow about him.

"Master!" Su Girl was first stunned, then promptly saluted.

Ye Fan stood up and said, "Let’s go back to the secret realm. I still have things to do. As for the Mysterious Woman, don’t pay attention to her for now!"
