Chapter 859: Despair

How were they supposed to fight back?

Were the heavens trying to destroy the Great Zhou?

The Great Zhou experts were in despair, feeling hopeless.

Zhou Fanyu’s face was also pale. Another one? Who can handle this?

Ye Guan looked at the horizon, his brows furrowed. Was the Evil Dao Alliance crazy? Why such a grand display just to kill me? Am I being targeted by the Great Daoist Brush Master or something?

In the sky, spacetime split open, and a middle-aged man slowly walked out. The man was extremely burly, with a broad chest and thick arms. Every step he took made the ground tremble as if he were an ancient god.

Seeing him, Ye Guan’s face darkened, “A Physique Cultivator.”

Zhou Fan nodded slightly, her brows knitted in worry.

Ye Guan’s expression was also serious. Swordsman and physique cultivators were the hardest to deal with, and now there were two of them.

One against two?

Ye Guan glanced at Ye Qingqing, worry filling his eyes.

Ye Qingqing looked at the burly man approaching, her expression calm.

Ji Xiaojian frowned as she questioned, “Cang Wu, what are you doing here?”

The burly man named Cang Wu stopped and looked down at Ye Guan. His voice was thunderous as he said, “This person has close ties with the True God, I’m here to capture him.”

Ji Xiaojian immediately stated, “He’s mine.”

Cang Wu glanced at Ji Xiaojian. “Are you sure you can handle this swordsman?”

Ji Xiaojian’s face darkened.

After all this time fighting, she felt fatigued. No matter how fiercely she attacked, the female swordsman before her remained immovable, her expression serene.

What did that mean?

Although she felt somewhat unwilling, her rationality told her that the female swordsman hadn’t used her full strength.

Ji Xiaojian looked at Ye Qingqing and asked, “Why not fight to the death?”

“This place isn’t suitable for a fight; let’s go somewhere else.”

“All right!”

Ye Qingqing looked at Cang Wu in the distance. “You too.”

“Are you sure?” Cang Wu frowned.

Ye Qingqing snapped, “Stop talking nonsense.”

With that, she turned into a beam of sword light and disappeared into the horizon.

Ji Xiaojian didn’t hesitate, turning into a beam of sword light and vanishing into the sky.

Cang Wu glanced down at Ye Guan, then stomped lightly and shot into the starry sky, disappearing at the edge of the universe.

Seeing the two Supreme Daoists leave, Master Yue and his people exchanged looks. What was going on? Were they not going to fight anymore?

Master Yue’s face was dark.

The people of the Great Zhou were on high alert.

Master Yue and his group, although not as strong as Ji Xiaojian, were still powerful and they dared not underestimate them. However, they weren’t particularly afraid of Path Creation Realm experts.

Ci Tian suddenly stood up and stretched his muscles. He looked at Master Yue and his group, putting his hands together as he asked, “Do you want a one-on-one or a group fight?”

Master Yue glared at Ci Tian, “Just wait, Great Zhou!”

With that, he turned around and fled.

It wasn’t that they couldn’t fight, but there was no point. They simply couldn’t take down the Great Zhou. Risk their lives here? No thanks!

Moreover, he felt the need to investigate Ye Guan more thoroughly. Their focus had been on the True God, so they knew too little about Ye Guan. A thorough investigation was needed, and then they could eliminate everyone connected to him.

Soon, Master Yue and his group disappeared into the starry sky.

The Great Zhou experts breathed a sigh of relief but quickly grew tense again. The Evil Dao Alliance wasn\'t going to give up so easily.

Ye Guan finally knew everything that had happened while he was unconscious. He felt a mix of gratitude and guilt for Zhou Fan, especially knowing that she had ignited her soul for him.

This matter had nothing to do with Great Zhou, but they were dragged into the mess because of him.

Seeing the guilt in Ye Guan’s eyes, Zhou Fan turned her head away and avoided his gaze.

Zhou Fan wasn\'t seeking any gratitude, but while there were some expectations in her heart, it was definitely not about gratitude.

Just then, the Great Zhou Emperor spoke, “Young Master Ye, you\'re still injured. Focus on healing. The Evil Dao Alliance won’t give up, and we need to sit down and discuss our plans once you’re patched up.”

Ye Guan nodded slightly. “Alright.”

The Great Zhou Emperor looked at Zhou Fan, “Come with me.”

With that, he disappeared, taking Zhou Fan with him.

Ye Guan also returned to Little Pagoda with Yi Nian to continue healing.

Outside, Ci Tian, Dao Jun, and Prime Minister Yuan remained, standing side by side.

Ci Tian suddenly asked, "No one\'s going to talk?"

Dao Jun remained silent while Prime Minister Yuan frowned but said nothing.

Ci Tian continued, "It looks like Young Master Ye has some powerful backing. We just don\'t know how strong they are."

Dao Jun nodded slightly. "That swordsman seems to be hiding her strength."

Prime Minister Yuan agreed, "She started hiding her strength only after Young Master Ye appeared."

Both Ci Tian and Dao Jun frowned simultaneously. Ci Tian asked, "Why would she do that?"

Dao Jun suddenly suggested, "Could it be that she wants to put pressure on Young Master Ye?"

Ci Tian shook his head slightly. "We can\'t be sure."

He turned to Prime Minister Yuan, "What do you think?"

Prime Minister Yuan said softly, "She mentioned that the Ye family would bring great fate to our Great Zhou for another one hundred billion years... That\'s incredibly impressive."

Ci Tian and Dao Jun were dumbfounded.

***

Meanwhile, the Great Zhou Emperor took Zhou Fan to the Imperial Mausoleum. The two walked slowly along a gravel path in the woods with bamboo forests swaying gently on either side.

The Great Zhou Emperor suddenly asked, "What are your plans next?"

"First, we need to deal with the Evil Dao Alliance."

"And after that?"

Zhou Fan was taken aback.

The Great Zhou Emperor added, "Young Master Ye seems like a good person, but he\'s entangled in too many karmic ties. Moreover, he has exceptional talent and will likely progress very quickly in the future..."

Zhou Fan smiled. "Father, are you worried that he\'ll eventually leave me behind?"

"Back in my day, I had many confidantes, but none could keep up with my pace..." The Great Zhou Emperor looked at Zhou Fan and asked, "Do you understand what I mean?"

"To him, I might just be a friend..."

"People are not emotionless. Don\'t underestimate your charm."

Zhou Fan fell silent.

The Great Zhou Emperor understood his daughter\'s feelings, so he added, "I brought you here to tell you that our Great Zhou is now tied to Young Master Ye. I understand that you like him and are willing to make sacrifices for him, but you must remember that you are the heir and the future ruler of Great Zhou. You can\'t be preoccupied with personal feelings alone. I know you want to keep your emotions separate from these responsibilities, but you must understand that while love is a matter between two people, marriage involves two families..."

Zhou Fan remained silent. She understood her father\'s point. Why was Great Zhou so determined to protect Ye Guan? Mainly because they considered him Zhou Fan\'s future husband. Otherwise, Great Zhou wouldn\'t have involved itself in the conflict between Ye Guan and the Evil Dao Alliance.

If Zhou Fan suddenly claimed that she and Ye Guan were just friends... it would be a joke. The people of Great Zhou wouldn\'t accept it at all.

The Great Zhou Emperor reassured her, "Don\'t overthink it. Once Young Master Ye recovers, go and have a good talk with him."

Zhou Fan nodded slightly. "Okay."

***

Ye Guan had recovered, and his injuries were almost fully healed. He was sitting cross-legged on a large boulder with Ao Qianqian beside him.

Ao Qianqian was also badly hurt in the battle. Fortunately, he could share the resources of the Divine Tree of Nature and the Life Force Heart with her.

After a while, Ye Guan opened his eyes slowly and stood up. He took a deep breath and stretched, making his bones crack. Looking down at his body, Ye Guan smiled wryly. Every time his fleshy body was destroyed, he would rebuild it and it was akin to starting over from scratch.

It was so painful—both physically and mentally.

A thought jumped into his mind, and Ye Guan turned to Ao Qianqian. Thankfully, she was fine.

At that moment, Ao Qianqian also opened her eyes.

Ye Guan walked over to her and gently asked, "Fully recovered?"

"Yes." Ao Qianqian nodded and touched Ye Guan\'s body. "Your body..."

Ye Guan replied, "I\'ll have to rebuild it."

Ao Qianqian took his hand. "I\'ll help you."

"Alright." Ye Guan held her hand in return and smiled.

Rebuilding his body wouldn\'t be easy, but he was confident.

Suddenly, he asked, "Master Pagoda, was it Great Zhou or someone else who saved me at the beginning?"

Little Pagoda replied, "It was your father."

"My father was here?" exclaimed Ye Guan in surprise.

Little Pagoda replied, "Yes."

"Then why did he leave?"

"Maybe you\'re not that important to him."

Ye Guan\'s expression froze. Master Pagoda has become strange after getting scolded by Aunt Qingqing.

Thinking of something, Ye Guan pulled Ao Qianqian to the Immortal Dao Tree. The tree had fully grown; its canopy was vast and magnificent. Twenty-nine fruits had ripened as well.

Dao Fruits! Seeing the fruits, Ye Guan\'s eyes sparkled with excitement. These were incredibly valuable.

Fortunately, the Immortal Dao Tree was inside the tiny pagoda. If it were outside, it wouldn\'t have grown so quickly.

The only downside was that he had used almost all his spiritual resources to nurture the tree. But it was worth it!

Ye Guan opened his palm, and two Dao Fruits fell from the tree, transforming into rays of light that landed in his hand.

He led Ao Qianqian into the Immortal Dao Tree, and the latter\'s face turned red...

Ye Guan used his sword domain to isolate the tree.

"Mmm~"

"Ah~"

"Are you thinking about another woman?"

"How could I?"

"Then why are you holding back..."

"Aaah~!"
