Invincible Young Master in the City

Ye Fan studied the six-colored flower in detail.

On the six-colored flower, he indeed felt the power of the six small crystals within his body.

Whether the six-colored flower is a signal transmitted by the small crystals within him remains uncertain for now, but one thing he can be sure of is that the appearance of the six-colored flower is not accidental. It should be a signal activated by the six small crystals before the heavenly tribulation. Once the signal is transmitted, it is something he can easily comprehend.

He continued to observe the six-colored flower, while Lan Jing stood nearby watching, and the seventh and eighth small crystals were bouncing around beside him.

These two small crystals seemed to have received some kind of signal, and their attitude towards Ye Fan was not as resistant as before.

"Ye Fan, they seem to be more accepting of you now," Lan Jing said with a smile.

Ye Fan nodded and said, "The six small crystals regard me as their master. These two small crystals are indeed ones I have reclaimed. They are now more accepting of your power, but that doesn’t mean they won’t listen to me. I still have confidence that I can tame them."

The two small crystals seemed to be saying something to Ye Fan, as if they had found a way to utilize the six-colored flower.

Lan Jing said, "It’s a pity I can’t understand what they’re saying. Ye Fan, do you understand?"

Ye Fan shook his head and said, "No, if I could understand, it wouldn’t have persisted until now... Lan Jing, we once cultivated together. At that time, the two small crystals were quite resistant to me. Now I want to try again and see if there’s any effect."

"Okay." Lan Jing nodded.

The two small crystals seemed to want to cultivate with Ye Fan since each time they cultivated with him, they received a powerful energy boost.

Just as Ye Fan and Lan Jing sat down cross-legged to prepare for cultivation, suddenly a voice came from afar. Ye Fan immediately stood up and said, "An unexpected visitor has arrived. I’ll go out and handle it first. You and the two small crystals stay here. I’ll be back soon!"

Lan Jing didn’t know whom Ye Fan was going to meet, but she was always obedient to Ye Fan. She knew Ye Fan would never harm her, so she didn’t object to Ye Fan’s departure and watched him leave her side.

...

...

Ye Fan arrived at the front courtyard, and a woman descended from the sky. This person was not entirely unfamiliar to Ye Fan.

It was Master Mingye, previously left by Ye Fan at the edge of the universe. The three women Song Mei, Bing Ting, and Bing Xuan were not brought back by Master Mingye, evidently indicating Mingye was cautious of these three women.

"Ye Fan, you were hard to find. It turns out you’ve returned to Earth. I thought you were in the secret realm of Pan Gu, trying to find a way to pass through the void into the realm of Pan Gu!" Master Mingye came and questioned.

Ye Fan said coldly, "Where I am doesn’t seem to have any direct relation to you. Why have you come to Earth? Is it to take revenge for my previous utilization of you?"

"I don’t blame you. I just want to find you, to see if there’s anything I can do to help before the heavenly tribulation," Master Mingye said. "Now that you’re on Earth, many things are simpler. I just need to communicate what I know with you, and then we can cooperate sincerely, right?"

Ye Fan squinted his eyes at Master Mingye and asked, "Do you think that’s possible?"

"Whatever you think, Ye Fan, you are indeed arrogant. I admit you are very capable, acquiring such high energy in a short time, even making people like Pan Gu and Fu Xi wary of you. But don’t forget who gave you your current status..." Master Mingye said in a somewhat threatening tone.

Ye Fan shook his head and said, "Regardless of who gave me my status, it seems to have no direct relation to you. Are you trying to say my power comes from you? You’re being a bit conceited, aren’t you?"

Master Mingye sneered, "Your past was just that of an ordinary human. Your cultivation actually comes from beyond the universe. You should be clear on that, but understand one thing. The Pure Yang spiritual energy you cultivate is a trigger for the energies beyond the universe. The Pure Yin spiritual energy on me is like a catalyst. Even though you mostly use the Pure Yin spiritual energy from Li Zhaojun and Min Shang for cultivation, never forget the cultivation methods of Xuanyue Palace come from me..."

Ye Fan said, "No matter what you say, I’m not going to show gratitude to you!"

"You really make me feel unreasonable, Ye Fan. You don’t feel any gratitude towards me, do you? When your cultivation was sealed by Nuwa, who helped you regain your current power? Don’t you have any sense of propriety? All I’ve done for you, am I asking for repayment? I just need your gratitude, and... you must take responsibility for me," Master Mingye said.

Ye Fan frowned and asked, "Who are you, Master Mingye, that I need to take responsibility for you? Your words confuse me."

"Whatever you want, I pretend the things you did to me never happened. You want to discard me like an old shoe, but that’s impossible. Now I want to enjoy the outcomes of helping you..." It was apparent Master Mingye was being somewhat overbearing.

Ye Fan said, "And you say you’re not asking for repayment?"

"Even if I am, so what? Ye Fan, I hope you feel a basic responsibility towards me. I don’t want to be used by you in the future. I want to accomplish one thing now, which is to gain rule over the celestial kingdom. If you help me achieve this, then my previous efforts weren’t in vain!" Master Mingye said.

Ye Fan shook his head and said, "A small celestial kingdom can’t form any obstacle for me. If you wish to control the celestial kingdom, what significance does it have for you?"

"I am fundamentally a person of the celestial kingdom. I don’t want to dispute who becomes the ruler of the universe, but I need to ensure the ruler of the celestial kingdom is me. If you agree with me, I might help you in more places as a trade. Surely that wouldn’t be a loss for you, would it?" Master Mingye asked.

Ye Fan thought about it and shook his head, saying, "I currently don’t have the time to help you accomplish the celestial kingdom’s affairs."

"Then I will do something to make you regret!" Master Mingye said, "Don’t think you can threaten me now, but I can equally threaten you. I can destroy many things you want, like the humans on Earth and the women you want to protect. If you kill me... it’s the consequence of your actions. What should be a simple task for you leads to you killing me, and I am your woman! Are you really someone who treats people so unevenly?"
