Invincible Young Master in the City

Ye Fan and Pan Gu have reached a standoff, but neither has acted yet.

Both seem to be waiting for the right moment. Ye Fan knows there’s still a significant gap in cultivation between him and Pan Gu, and Pan Gu is mainly concerned about the unknown energy on Ye Fan and the heavenly tribulation.

"I’ve been curious," Pan Gu suddenly said, "What did you do after you obtained Nuwa? Fu Xi seems very upset with you now. If you used human methods to obtain Nuwa, you were quite bold. Doing so makes it impossible to cooperate with Fu Xi. Fu Xi could be your best ally, and even after you achieve your ambitions, he would support you."

Ye Fan shook his head and said, "I don’t need anyone else’s support; I only need to do things my way. Pan Gu, you don’t need to test my reactions. You just need to know one thing: I’ll kill you sooner or later. If you’re afraid of the threat I pose to you in the future, you can act now. We can fight to the death right now. I think this is your last chance to win!"

"Even if I were to fight you, it wouldn’t be here!" Pan Gu said, glancing at the Divine weapon that looked like a spear, "You still can’t decide whether you follow the forces of the heavenly tribulation or your own heart, Ye Fan. If you pick up this Divine weapon, perhaps I truly am no match for you. This weapon is also a gift from the heavenly tribulation. You can always do things that betray your original intentions for your future. I think you’ll change your initial purpose when you have nowhere else to go, just like Li Yunhuo. Maybe he didn’t intend to destroy all the ancient cultivators from the start. His thoughts just gradually became extreme."

Ye Fan also examined the Divine weapon and said, "Perhaps you’re right. If I can’t even preserve my own life, I can’t save the heavenly tribulation. Why shouldn’t I pick up this Divine weapon? So... are you afraid?"

Pan Gu studied Ye Fan, and after a long time, he calmly nodded and said, "Maybe you’re right. I’m truly afraid of your Demonization. You’re already a terrifying young man; if you undergo Demonization, I believe you’ll become even more formidable. At that time, the entire universe might become your stage, and Fu Xi and I won’t be able to stop you. The heavenly tribulation will destroy everything, even your humanity!"

"Perhaps you’re right. Do you have anything more to say?" Ye Fan seemed to issue a final ultimatum to Pan Gu, and it looked like they might fight at any moment.

Pan Gu said, "Since you won’t reveal Li Yunhuo’s whereabouts, I won’t force you. However, Ye Fan, you must know that the greatest secret Li Yunhuo holds is not the heavenly tribulation, but the origin of the ancient cultivators. I’m really curious about these. If you can find the answer, even if you end up killing me, please tell me the answer."

Ye Fan shook his head and said, "The answers you want to know should be explored on your own. Why ask me? I’m not responsible for helping you find so-called answers. These things should be done by you!"

"Ye Fan, you’re quite unreasonable. However, I won’t force you. Even if you refuse to help me, I’ll say this... If you weren’t determined to kill me, defying the order I created, perhaps I would have spared you. Unfortunately, we’re always at odds. I don’t want to change my principles because of you. Ye Fan, maybe your choice is right; to fulfill every original intention, you must destroy all enemies. Perhaps I haven’t done as well as you in this regard!"

After Pan Gu finished speaking, his figure slowly disappeared. Ye Fan didn’t try to kill Pan Gu because he knew there was still a gap in cultivation between them.

After Pan Gu completely disappeared, Ye Fan closed his eyes, seemingly pondering the hints Pan Gu left him.

One was about Li Yunhuo, and the other was about the matter of principles. He thought to himself, "My battle with him is not so much a destined fight as a struggle for power of dominance. Only when I’m certain no one will threaten my life can I calmly do things I want to do. My choices are very different from his. He’s already the ruler, and I’m just a challenger to him!"

After understanding these things, Ye Fan’s heart became more at ease.

Ye Fan continued to observe every detail on Heavenly Peak Mountain, and not too long after, another unexpected guest arrived—not Pan Gu, but Fu Xi, the person Pan Gu mentioned earlier and his most loyal subordinate.

Fu Xi’s arrival somewhat surprised Ye Fan because he thought Fu Xi would hardly oppose Pan Gu’s will in an open manner and discuss things with him.

"Heavenly Peak Mountain is different from other places!" Ye Fan spoke loudly before Fu Xi appeared, "Once you’re here, even Pan Gu can’t trace your tracks. You don’t have to fear discussing anything with me here being known by him!"

Fu Xi soon appeared before Ye Fan, curiously looking at him and saying, "What you said seems less like a reminder to me and more like a reminder to Pan Gu. Unfortunately, both he and I understand this connection. I came here without fear of being noticed by him for what we’re going to discuss."

"That still disappoints me!" Ye Fan shrugged and said, "I thought you would talk about confidential matters with me concerning killing Pan Gu."

Fu Xi appeared disappointed and said, "Ye Fan, your mind is indeed peculiar. You still think you can sow discord between me and Pan Gu?"

Ye Fan laughed, "Am I sowing discord? I’m just stating a fact. Pan Gu should understand your stance and situation well. After the heavenly tribulation, whether you’ll help him is uncertain; even he can’t confirm that. Your true affinity has always been towards Nuwa. You want Nuwa more than to serve Pan Gu."

Fu Xi remained silent but seemed to tacitly acknowledge the truth of Ye Fan’s words.

Ye Fan said, "How about we make a deal about Nuwa? If you can help me instead of siding with Pan Gu, perhaps I can return Nuwa to you. Consider this our cooperative bargaining chip. When the heavenly tribulation passes, after I kill Pan Gu, you can secure your position, and I guarantee I won’t kill you or Nuwa. Do you accept these terms?"
