Invincible Young Master in the City-Chapter 1605 - 1601: Methods of Saving Lives

Returning to the Dead Sea Cavern, Xi He had completely closed her eyes, refusing to speak. She was determined not to help Ye Fan rescue Lu Xiaoman, Lan Jing, and the others.

Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman asked nervously, "Ye Fan, are you confident now?"

Ye Fan was probing the spaces connected to the Dead Sea Cavern using elemental power, but he wasn’t sure what these spaces were linked to, nor was he sure where Xi He had hidden the remaining women.

"It should be fine, let’s go!" Ye Fan said, grabbing Mysterious Woman and Xi He, and entered a space, which was an illusion created by Xi He.

The issue Ye Fan previously worried about was whether Xi He’s mental collapse would lead these illusions into logical disorder, causing the women imprisoned inside to experience a mental breakdown due to the chaos. However, upon entering this illusion, he found it quite normal.

"What’s going on? Didn’t you attack her mind? Why is the illusion still intact?" Mysterious Woman was confused by what she saw.

Ye Fan replied, "I suspect the illusions she created are reinforced by some elemental power, even if her own mental power collapses, most of these illusions can remain intact. We should quickly find the people trapped in this illusion and return to the secret realm!"

Mysterious Woman asked, "Do you know who is imprisoned in this illusion?"

"I don’t know!" Ye Fan continued to probe with his Spiritual Sense, "We’re currently in an Earth simulation. It could be your daughter, or it could be the girls with me. Let’s check out Hua Hai City together!"

Mysterious Woman didn’t think Ye Fan could find Lan Jing in one go. It felt like she was back on Earth, and she herself felt that the world before her was indistinguishable from Earth. Her cultivation was actually inferior to Xi He’s, and now it was even more scarred, widening the gap in cultivation between her and Xi He.

When they arrived in Hua Hai City, the world below seemed normal; everyone was living peacefully and orderly. Even Ye Fan thought the world seemed real, but only his Tongling Mirror reminded him that this was not a real world, but just an illusory image.

"You won’t take both me and Xi He to your home, will you?" Mysterious Woman asked, while remaining hidden, observing the busy traffic below.

Ye Fan said, "I still don’t know who is imprisoned here, I can’t determine where to take you. Mysterious Woman, can’t you detect anything here?"

Despite not wanting to admit it, Mysterious Woman nodded. She indeed couldn’t find any information regarding the imprisoned in the illusion. She felt that without Ye Fan’s assistance, she wouldn’t be able to break free from the illusion if left alone.

"Xi He, don’t you want to say anything?" Ye Fan asked.

Xi He, with closed eyes, seemed to be meditating. Ye Fan directly attacked her with spiritual power, yet Xi He didn’t emit any sounds of pain, appearing more like a statue of Buddha.

"Ye Fan, why are you still asking her? Quickly find who you’re looking for, and let’s leave here. There are so many illusions to traverse, you’re not planning to ask her each time, are you?" Mysterious Woman said impatiently.

Ye Fan nodded slightly, continuing to close his eyes, probing each space within the illusion. At this point, his Spiritual Sense was incredibly strong, and his spiritual power could instantly penetrate any space within the illusion, searching for the living beings hiding within, rather than illusionary.

Yet even after searching, he hadn’t discovered any clues.

"Strange!" Ye Fan stated.

"What’s so strange? Haven’t you found anything?" Mysterious Woman asked.

Ye Fan stated, "There are definitely people in this illusion, but they seem covered by a certain force. As for who they are, it’s hard to say. Could she have used some sort of power that can interfere with my Spiritual Sense?"

"What exactly do you want to do?" Mysterious Woman questioned.

Ye Fan replied, "No matter who she is imprisoning here, her mental power will undoubtedly affect this world. If I start to disrupt this world, those who were originally in her illusion will not find it strange that the world is collapsing; they rather continue their own lives because these illusions cannot actively think. This is because Xi He cut off her connection with the illusion, making all illusions follow predetermined procedures continuously. Now I just need to see who would react dramatically to the world’s collapse!"

Mysterious Woman frowned, "Are you sure this will work?"

Ye Fan shook his head, uncertain if this method would be effective. But since he was already in this illusion, he had no better choice. Because searching one by one, traversing every illusion, might not find the trapped person.

Disrupting Xi He’s illusion was now something easy for Ye Fan. As long as Ye Fan attacked the illusion with spiritual power, it would distort and deform, causing scenes akin to landslides and ground cracks.

"Ye Fan, don’t mess things up!" Mysterious Woman cautioned one last time.

The illusion had begun to crumble, just as Ye Fan had anticipated. In the lifestyle patterns below, there was no fundamental change despite the illusion’s tearing and breaking. Vehicles continued to move, and people in the illusion began to walk towards the cracks, similar to a pre-set movie script, even if the scene changed, the people still acted according to the originally set narrative.

Aside from attacking the illusion, Ye Fan kept probing two things: one was monitoring Xi He, to see if she prepared to reconnect with the illusion, disrupting Ye Fan’s exploration, and another was checking to see who within the illusion reacted strongly to the tearing, sky-shattering effects.

Xi He hadn’t reconnected her link with the illusion, fearing that Ye Fan would detect her rules of illusion-making. In this, Xi He was still quite clever.

Just as anticipated, once the illusion started collapsing, someone indeed reacted dramatically, surprisingly not only one person but two. The location these two people were in was somewhere Ye Fan had visited on Earth before, precisely in the direction of Hua Hai University.

"Is it Yaoyao and Xiaoxiao?" Ye Fan hadn’t expected that Xi He would imprison two people in a single illusion.

Thinking about it, Qin Mengyao and Yang Xiaoting spent most of their daily lives with each other. As long as they lived together, both being real, it’s difficult to determine that the surrounding world was actually an illusion created by someone.

"I know where they are. Follow me!" Ye Fan told Mysterious Woman, dragging Xi He, heading towards Hua Hai University.
