Chapter 2082 - 2078: Each Has Their Own Ambitions

Within the Pan Gu Secret Realm, Sang Yuan had arranged for her subordinates to carry out the task of gathering the common people into Sky City.

She stood alone at the mountain gate of the Tianxuan Sect, watching the situation on the mountain, her expression grave.

"In the blink of an eye, Young Master has already been in the Pan Gu Secret Realm for four years... For the outside world, it’s only been four months, yet in this mere span of four months, Young Master has managed to seize control of the entire Pan Gu Secret Realm. Even Nuwa was defeated by him. Next, Master will change the entire order of the cultivation world. It really makes one look forward to it!"

As Sang Yuan spoke, a woman was standing behind her. This was a female cultivator under Sang Yuan’s command, one who could be considered to have earned Sang Yuan’s deep trust.

"Divine Envoy, have you already prepared for the moment when Master is crowned?" the female cultivator asked.

"What do you know? Do you think Young Master’s ultimate goal is to control the entire cultivation world? You’re wrong. Young Master’s true goal is only to live a quiet life. When that time comes, Master will release the power of the cultivation world, and the control over the entire Pan Gu Secret Realm will truly fall into my hands... The Tianxuan Sect in front of us poses no small threat to me. Later I’ll need to resolve the trouble that is the Tianxuan Sect... You must understand, you cannot go against my intentions. Do you understand?" Sang Yuan said sharply.

The female cultivator saluted and said, "So in the future, Divine Envoy, you only intend to control the Pan Gu Secret Realm? What about the cultivators of the outside world..."

"If I can control this place, I’m already satisfied. My ambition is different from theirs. I know exactly how capable I am. To let me control anything beyond this... I don’t have that ability. As for the cultivators of the outside world, and control over places like the Immortal Realm, I’ll leave that for other ambitious people by Master’s side to fight over..."

Sang Yuan spoke with great magnanimity.

The female cultivator laughed and said, "In that case, Divine Envoy, the only trouble left for you now is the Tianxuan Sect?"

"Exactly! Back then, the Tianxuan Sect caused me plenty of trouble. Perhaps right now I still can’t completely raze it to the ground, but once the Heavenly Tribulation is over, I absolutely won’t allow the Tianxuan Sect to continue posing any threat to me. You can simply wait to follow me and enjoy good days... Hahaha, by then, within the Pan Gu Secret Realm you’ll obey my orders, and I’ll provide you with protection as well!" Sang Yuan said.

...

...

The people around Ye Fan had all begun plotting for what would happen after the Heavenly Tribulation.

Everyone had their own plans. Even Xi He and Xuan Nv and the others each had their own designs. Previously, Master Mingye had merely提出 to Ye Fan that after the Heavenly Tribulation, he should let her control the entire Immortal Realm.

This could be considered a division of interests. Right now, Ye Fan had yet to control the entire cultivation world, but these people under his command had already started thinking about how to divide the power he held. Perhaps they also understood that Ye Fan himself had no intention of competing for supremacy, and only wished for a peaceful life. Moreover, Ye Fan clearly didn’t have the energy to control the entire cultivation world.

"Master, your mood seems quite good..."

At the North Pole on Earth, Ye Fan had already completed his cultivation. At this moment, Ye Fan stood at the very front of the Ice Sealed Hall, gazing at the towering ice statue, while Xi He and Su Nv stood behind him.

Xuan Nv and Leizu had not come to disturb him this time. However, Su Nv seemed to have grown a bit more ambitious. Xi He, sensing that Su Nv was someone who could be cultivated, had also sparked Su Nv’s renewed ambition for vying over supremacy.

Ye Fan raised his head to look at the statue and said, "My heart is as calm as still water. There’s no distinction between a good mood and a bad mood. What I have to do is change the rules of this world, so that cultivators can live and develop in an environment that is more fair and just. As for whether the Pan Gu Secret Realm still needs to exist after the Heavenly Tribulation, that is also something worth my consideration."

"Master intends to completely destroy the Pan Gu Secret Realm after the Heavenly Tribulation?" Xi He asked.

Ye Fan shook his head and said, "I haven’t decided yet. After all, the Pan Gu Secret Realm is a special domain created for the Heavenly Tribulation. It seems that right now, the Pan Gu Secret Realm has not fulfilled the purpose Pan Gu originally had in mind when it was established. Even if some Immortals have been nurtured, the gap between these Immortals’ cultivation and that of the ancient cultivators is still enormous. These people haven’t helped much with the Heavenly Tribulation; on the contrary, they’ve become something of a constraint on other cultivators!"

Xi He said, "The Pan Gu Secret Realm nurtured you, Master. That is its greatest success. With that alone, it seems already enough. What does Master think?"

"That’s one way to put it, but in the future the Pan Gu Secret Realm will also lose its greatest meaning. Then what purpose would its continued existence serve? Once the power of Pan Gu and Fu Xi and the others is gone, the Pan Gu Secret Realm will completely collapse anyway. It would be better to make arrangements in advance and allow the people inside the secret realm to relocate. There are so many places in the universe suitable for their cultivation. Why must they live within the Pan Gu Secret Realm?" Ye Fan said.

Xi He thought for a moment and said, "Then what about the energy gathered within the Pan Gu Secret Realm? The massive concentration of Spiritual Energy—if the Pan Gu Secret Realm is destroyed, it might trigger a great Spiritual Energy catastrophe. Master should think it through carefully."

"This is just a hypothesis. I never said I was definitely going to do anything, so you don’t need to appear so nervous in front of me. I won’t immediately act to change all of this!" Ye Fan said.

Xi He nodded and said, "This servant understands Master’s thoughts, and will no longer interfere in Master’s considerations regarding the Pan Gu Secret Realm!"

Ye Fan turned around and walked up to Xi He, then looked at Su Nv beside her. At this moment, a faint smile appeared on his face. He reached out and pulled Su Nv into his arms, and Su Nv did not struggle at all.

"What’s this, have you finished cultivating? Xuan Nv and Leizu seem to still be in cultivation. It appears those two are even more devoted to cultivating!" Ye Fan said.

"That’s merely what Master thinks!" Xi He said. "Has Master never considered that those two are actually the most ambitious? Ever since Xuan Nv followed Master, she’s harbored ulterior motives. Even now she still cannot truly open her heart to Master. Master should guard against her a bit more! As for Leizu... I do not wish to comment on her too much."

Ye Fan knew that there was after all a complicated past between Xi He and Leizu. Back then, because of the relationship between Leizu and Li Yunhuo, the two of them had always had a knot between them.

Ye Fan said, "I don’t want to meddle in your past. You only need to abide by one rule—that is, maintain absolute loyalty to me! I don’t want to play too many games of calculation with you. As long as you don’t betray me, I will show you the utmost tolerance!"

"Yes, Master!" Xi He saluted.

Ye Fan directly picked Su Nv up and said, "Come inside with me. The previous cultivation hasn’t completely finished. While there’s still some time, I plan to leave only after my cultivation is truly complete... After that, I fear I won’t have any more time to concern myself with cultivation, and can only focus on dealing with the Heavenly Tribulation..."
