Invincible Young Master in the City

Chapter 2048 - 2044: Ye Fan—Tough on the Outside, Soft on the Inside

Ye Fan couldn’t find a way to communicate with the two small crystals, nor could he tell them how to use their powers to collide and counteract.

"Ye Fan, what should we do? We’ve found a good opportunity, but I can’t help you. I feel a bit useless," Lan Jing said, looking somewhat frustrated.

Ye Fan smiled and said, "This has little to do with you; it’s because I haven’t done well enough myself that you’re worried. Don’t worry, as long as I can make good use of these two small crystals, I’ll still be able to awaken my powers. There’s still time before dawn."

"It’s not possible," Lan Jing said worriedly, "Although we say there’s time, how can it just so coincidentally allow you to awaken your powers? It seems too difficult, Ye Fan. Do you need my help?"

Ye Fan appeared very confident and said, "There’s not much you can do for me now, so I don’t need you to help me with anything. I will try to communicate with them myself."

When Ye Fan reached out his hand, the two small crystals completely ignored him. Clearly, in their view, Lan Jing was their master, while Ye Fan was not only not their master but could even become their enemy.

For this, Ye Fan felt quite helpless. He wanted to use some methods to influence the two small crystals, but that seemed far from easy.

"Lan Jing, you try once more to let them counteract their powers. I’ll see if there’s any way while we still have this time. Let’s take this opportunity to try together; it’s also our chance to work sincerely together!" Ye Fan said with a smile.

"Okay!" Lan Jing was very happy, as being able to help Ye Fan was something she found very pleasing. The two sat down again, utilizing the two small crystals to form a collision of forces, which meant they were teasing the crystals, constantly provoking them to struggle, while Lan Jing watched joyfully. For her, this was a very entertaining matter.

In the Pan Gu secret realm, Pan Gu and Fu Xi were still looking for clues regarding Li Yunhuo.

But ultimately they found nothing; Li Yunhuo appeared to have vanished into the universe. Fu Xi said, "This person’s disappearance means the heavenly tribulation could happen at any moment. Now it seems Ye Fan isn’t ready for anything, and it looks like we’ll have some troubles ourselves."

"What trouble can there be? A heavenly tribulation is something we have to face sooner or later. I don’t think the arrival of the tribulation will have much impact on us. Fu Xi, I rather think that you might be completely at odds with me because of Nuwa. Are you coming back now to help me, or to kick me when I’m down?" Pan Gu scrutinized Fu Xi and said.

Fu Xi shook his head and said, "No matter what wrongs you commit, I will support you. I won’t kill you, or help others against you. This is my promise to you."

"And what about Ye Fan? Now Ye Fan has taken away your woman, and it’s under my directive. I think you might do anything for Nuwa, which isn’t good for you. Fu Xi, you should face many things directly, instead of keeping them buried in your heart as you do now; it’s too dangerous!" Pan Gu said.

Fu Xi sneered, appearing angry, "So, do you want me to deal with Ye Fan by killing him, or continue using him like this? Do you have enough confidence to defeat him after the heavenly tribulation?"

"I have enough confidence to defeat Ye Fan now, but once the heavenly tribulation has passed and his powers are fully formed, even I don’t know if I can still defeat him. If you help me, my chances of defeating Ye Fan might be higher!" Pan Gu scrutinized Fu Xi, seemingly waiting for him to express his stance.

Fu Xi shook his head and said, "Now, I can’t even determine what the heavenly tribulation is like, let alone how to deal with Ye Fan after it. Let’s decide everything after the tribulation; I don’t want to think about these things now, it merely exhausts me! The greatest problem for us ancient cultivators is spiritual power. Over the long years, our lives have lost their original meaning, and only we can find that meaning... Ye Fan may not be troubled by this now, but if he truly defeats us, he will follow in our footsteps!"

Xi He was very frustrated after failing to capture Shen Biancheng and Bai He, as this seemed to be her best opportunity.

"Why did I fail? If I had succeeded at least I could learn many secrets and use those secrets to gain much help for myself!" Xi He muttered to herself, while before her stood the cold-faced Xuan Nu.

Xuan Nu said, "You don’t think I’m helping those two humans, do you?"

"I didn’t say that, but I think you still have a lot you are hiding from me. Xuan Nu, your relationship with Li Yunhuo is the reason he is protecting you. You even hide things from the master. Aren’t you afraid that once the master discovers the truth, he will tear you to pieces?" Xi He said coldly.

Xuan Nu laughed and said, "Do you think I don’t understand my own situation? Ye Fan won’t treat me that way; he just has a hard mouth and a soft heart. To his own women, he never acts harshly. This is his character; you should understand this character. It’s both his greatest weakness and an advantage, at least there’s logic to follow in what he does!"

Xi He sneered and said, "So you want to use the master’s pity to exchange for some benefits, even get the privilege of not being killed, right? Xuan Nu, this matter you’ve indeed done wrong. If you tell everything to the master, perhaps it would help him save the heavenly tribulation, which would be good for you too!"

Xuan Nu angrily said, "You want me to help him? Dream on! He is not only using me but also using my daughter. Do you think I will ever genuinely help him? In my eyes, he is unreasonable. I’d rather help a stranger than help him. Only you, Xi He, would consider him a master. I just see him as a tool to be used!"

Xi He appeared very sorrowful and said, "Then I must have misjudged you. I initially thought you would, like me, bind your interests with the master’s interests, but didn’t expect that you now don’t even care for your life, just to oppose the master. Don’t forget, if the master encounters any mishap, you will also perish!"

"Thank you for the reminder; I know what I’m doing. I’m willing to take responsibility for what I’ve done!" Xuan Nu coldly smiled, "I also hope you can recognize your own situation, and stop saying these meaningless things in front of me, because you make me feel you’re quite pathetic!"
