Chapter 2198 - 2194: Rebuilding Our Homeland

The turmoil in the Pan Gu Secret Realm finally ended after about more than an hour.

At this point, a massive deep pit had formed within the Pan Gu Secret Realm, into which a large amount of seawater had entered, forming a new ocean. The main body of the Pan Gu Secret Realm was no longer land, but had transformed into a terrain dominated by the ocean, much like Earth.

Mountains and lakes had undergone huge changes, and all these changes made the cultivators tremble with a sense of dread.

"Finally, the turmoil has ended!" Sang Yuan looked down from the sky at the changes below, behind her were her own believers, along with many people from the seven major sects. Everyone was observing the situation below as if attending a grand ceremony, with each cultivator feeling a deep sense of sorrow for the changes in the Pan Gu Secret Realm.

Hai Wuzi said, "I feel that the Spiritual Energy within the Pan Gu Secret Realm seems to have dispersed to various corners of the universe, and the previously concentrated phenomenon of Spiritual Energy is no longer present here!"

Sang Yuan replied, "The Pan Gu Secret Realm was originally constructed by ancient powers to save the Heavenly Tribulation, and now its mission is complete. The ancient powers have withdrawn their forces from here, so the destruction of the Pan Gu Secret Realm is only natural. You all should feel grateful for having cultivated here, otherwise, with your qualifications and abilities, it would be impossible to reach the extreme of ascension even after thousands of years of cultivation outside."

Because Sang Yuan spoke harshly, the people around her did not want to engage with her, and many even regarded her with very unpleasant expressions.

However, it seemed no one was willing to engage in battle or self-slaying at the moment. They also understood that competing with Sang Yuan was of no benefit to themselves.

"Master Sang Yuan, what should we do now?" Hai Wuzi seemed to want to ask for guidance. "The Pan Gu Secret Realm has become like this, it might collapse entirely at any given moment. Why not let the people inside the secret realm leave and explore a more stable living environment?"

Sang Yuan shook her head and said, "We cannot do such a thing, or rather we do not have the right to do so. Without the instructions from the lord, we cannot act independently. The Heavenly Tribulation is not yet over, why rush to send these people out of the Pan Gu Secret Realm?"

"At the very least, we should come up with a strategy instead of watching the changes and ignoring them as they happen," Hai Wuzi said.

Sang Yuan examined Hai Wuzi, seemingly a bit annoyed, and said, "Since the lord is not here, I don’t know whose orders to follow, but I know that what Lan Jing girl says is always right, following her instructions is good enough. All we need to do now is to ensure the safety of the entire Pan Gu Secret Realm, nothing more. If you still intend to act rashly, then you’re inviting discomfort upon yourselves, don’t blame me for not showing mercy!"

Although the people of the seven major sects present had their opinions about Sang Yuan, none dared to directly make any move against her.

Immediately, Xi He and Lan Jing approached, and Hai Wuzi and others realized that instead of talking with Sang Yuan, it would be better to seek instructions from these two, at least they were representatives sent by Ye Fan, while Sang Yuan was merely helping out with miscellaneous tasks.

When Lan Jing and Xi He returned to the group, Hai Wuzi and Sang Yuan greeted them.

Sang Yuan said, "We have already followed Lan Jing girl’s arrangement to ensure the safety of Heavenly City and Han Zhu Kingdom. Now, what should we do next?"

"I don’t know either," Lan Jing appeared confused, "I don’t even know if this is the right action. Look at this place... it used to be all land, but now even around Heavenly City, there’s an ocean. The changes are happening so fast, it would be better if Ye Fan were here; I could consult him directly for anything."

"Miss Lan, since Alliance Hierarch Ye is not here, we should think of solutions for his absence; we can’t rely on him to solve everything!" Hai Wuzi said.

Lan Jing asked, "What do you think we should do next then?"

"We..." Hai Wuzi immediately wanted to express her thoughts, but as she was about to speak, she noticed Sang Yuan glaring at her and realized that the order within the Pan Gu Secret Realm was shifting, and various forces were beginning to fight for control. This place was no longer directly under Ye Fan’s command, but whoever could gain Ye Fan’s trust would obtain control over the entire Pan Gu Secret Realm.

"Why don’t you continue?" Lan Jing didn’t understand all the nuances and merely asked curiously.

Sang Yuan said, "Lan Jing girl, before the lord comes back, we shouldn’t make any changes here, that’s the most responsible way to act for the lord. If he returns and is dissatisfied, then we still have various ways to remedy it, don’t we?"

"Hmm." Lan Jing seemed somewhat puzzled, as if thinking about something, and for a moment did not respond to the people in front of her.

Xi He, however, understood that Sang Yuan and Hai Wuzi were competing for control over the Pan Gu Secret Realm. To Xi He, who controlled the secret realm was irrelevant, as she wouldn’t care about such affairs. She said, "No one knows where the master is, and since we don’t want to change what he left behind, we should move the people of Han Zhu Kingdom here. Only by gathering together can they be better protected. Now the flood has receded, and in the uncertainty of another round of Heavenly Tribulation, it’s best to ensure the survival of these people first!"

"You mean we should protect these people?" Sang Yuan looked at Xi He and asked.

"You have no right to question what I say." Xi He appeared domineering at this moment, "Since the master is not here, whoever’s cultivation is the highest should be listened to. At least, the person with the highest cultivation can alter some matters, while those with lower cultivation should merely carry out orders!"

These words made Sang Yuan very displeased, but she couldn’t find any reason to refute them, as her cultivation level was lower. She remained among the minor figures of ancient cultivators, whereas Xi He was someone who could stand alongside ancient powers.

Now, Xi He had even triumphed over Nuwa; no one knew the extent of Xi He’s potential.

"Should we move the humans now?" Lan Jing asked.

Xi He courteously replied, "Yes, the priority now is to help rebuild a home for humans. That’s what we can do. Lan Jing girl, I know you still have many doubts in your heart, but at least what we are doing now does not harm Ye Fan’s interests, which is already the best outcome, isn’t it?"

"Oh." Lan Jing nodded, not arguing against Xi He, remaining quite confused in this moment.
