"You are..." 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

When Shen Yan turned around and saw the person who suddenly appeared, a trace of unease flashed in her pupils. This was a person she wasn’t supposed to know, but because she knew Ye Fan, she also recognized this woman. It was Li Zhaojun, who had already married Ye Fan and had always been by his side.

"It’s you?" Shen Yan’s tone immediately changed, and her expression became very tense because she felt that Li Zhaojun’s appearance was filled with hostility.

Li Zhaojun appeared in Four-nine City, her gaze soft, yet her actions were aggressive, making Shen Yan feel a significant threat.

"Miss Shen, we... should consider this another meeting," Li Zhaojun smiled and said.

Shen Yan’s expression became very constrained. She hadn’t even decided where to go yet, and already Li Zhaojun had found her, making her feel that Li Zhaojun had come with no good intentions.

Shen Yan said, "There’s no relationship between us. Although we know each other, don’t you think just coming to find me like this is a bit rude?"

Li Zhaojun shook her head and said, "Miss Shen, do you still remember that you injured Ye Fan?"

"What are you talking about? Ye Fan? I have nothing to do with him anymore, not even as friends. I saw him once in a place called the Pan Gu secret realm, but then he left. Do you think I would ruin your marriage?" Shen Yan said sharply.

In Shen Yan’s view, Li Zhaojun was being unreasonable. She had clearly let go already, but both Ye Fan and his wife came one after another, bothering her relentlessly.

The more her heart was troubled, the more she thought of Ye Fan, because he was an indelible person in her heart.

Shen Yan thought to herself, "Could she really have a point? Have I never been able to forget Ye Fan?"

Li Zhaojun said, "Some matters you can forget, but let me remind you. During the time you were controlled by Xi He, you achieved a high level of cultivation. This cultivation even threatened Ye Fan. You injured him to get revenge, causing him the pain of being harmed by someone he loved. Have you ever thought about his feelings?"

"What are you saying? I don’t understand at all. Controlled by someone? I am who I am. Everything I’ve done has been my own decision!" Shen Yan glared at Li Zhaojun.

Li Zhaojun was silent for a moment before saying, "Ye Fan and I have our wedding in less than a day. After sunrise, we will become husband and wife. But while watching the sunset now, I feel a sense of guilt because I hurt him. There are some things I didn’t discuss with him, but I think my decision is right."

Shen Yan continued to glare at Li Zhaojun. Apart from understanding that Ye Fan and Li Zhaojun were about to have their wedding, she didn’t really take in anything else.

This was a great hurt to her, as the person she loved had a steadfast wife. Shen Yan was a proud girl and believed the person she loved must be the best, because she was the most perfect. Unfortunately, she and Ye Fan couldn’t become a couple, which was her frustration.

Shen Yan couldn’t tolerate Ye Fan’s "betrayal," even though she knew from the start this love was just her one-sided wish.

Li Zhaojun continued, "You may not quite understand, so let me explain. The jealousy and hatred in your heart were manipulated by Xi He, the woman who granted you cultivation. Xi He initially wanted to use you to counterbalance Ye Fan. Later, to save you, Ye Fan paid a huge price. He... absorbed the fierce ancient force from Xi He’s body into his own, and now he is suffering from a backlash of an extremely masculine cultivation energy, which could drive him mad at any moment! Is this what you want to see?"

"Don’t use these words to scare me. I don’t believe it!" Shen Yan replied.

Li Zhaojun said, "There are things you can choose not to believe, but have you thought about the inexplicable events you’ve encountered after regaining consciousness? You ended up in places you shouldn’t have been, with no memory of how you got there, and your cultivation skyrocketed, easily defeating anyone in your way..."

"Enough, I don’t want to hear it!" Shen Yan had already felt something was wrong as she listened, and she even began to suspect Li Zhaojun might be telling the truth. But she was unwilling to admit it, so she interrupted Li Zhaojun, "You are not a friendly person to me. I can feel your inner restlessness and hostility toward me. If you want to deal with me, just do it. Don’t assume I will go easy on you for Ye Fan’s sake. Whether I kill you or not won’t affect my attitude toward Ye Fan. I have already parted ways with him!"

Shen Yan tried to make her words sound more imposing to prove she really had no thoughts about Ye Fan.

But there were things she couldn’t avoid. When she mentioned Ye Fan, there was a faint pain in her heart, an inevitable backlash from not achieving true love, and a resentment planted by Xi He when she granted her cultivation.

Li Zhaojun shook her head and said, "I won’t kill you, nor do I need to. I came here to discuss with you whether we could save Ye Fan together. With your cultivation, I don’t need to use force. If you’re willing to help him, it would be best for him, freeing him from this backlash... If you don’t help him, he might become a demon forever. Is that the outcome you wish to see?"

"I don’t care about Ye Fan’s matters. Even if he’s suffering from some backlash now, what does it have to do with me?" Shen Yan said.

"It seems you still don’t believe me, so I will have to show you how terrifying it would be if Ye Fan became a demon!"

Li Zhaojun suddenly waved her hands, and the scene before them was no longer the rooftop of the Four-nine City Hotel but in the sky. Shen Yan even felt the ground beneath her vanish, forcing her to use Immortal Law to fly in the air.

"Look, that’s Ye Fan!" Li Zhaojun said.

Shen Yan looked over and saw a man shrouded in black aura, slaughtering. In front of him were numerous dead cultivators, the mountains and rivers deformed, and even the sky was continuously struck by lightning.

Ye Fan’s slaughter became more intense, and the only ones capable of resisting him were the women by his side.

Shen Yan saw someone there—it was herself.

At that moment, she held a long sword, unwilling to face Ye Fan directly, but it seemed Ye Fan had already lost his mind and was about to kill her.

"Why... would I appear there?" Shen Yan looked dazed, "You know very well I won’t be with Ye Fan again and won’t appear in the same scene with him!"
