Chapter 2210 - 2206: Accepting Servants

Ye Fan felt that an unknown danger was approaching him, so he didn’t leave immediately. Instead, he held his Fire Dragon Sword, ready to engage the unknown force.

Xi He initially didn’t believe Ye Fan would encounter any real danger, but when she sensed a powerful force coming, it was almost too late. She instinctively wanted to do something, but it was of no use.

However, Ye Fan’s reaction speed had reached an unimaginable level. This kind of force seemed strong, but in front of Ye Fan, it was somewhat vulnerable.

"Whoosh!" Ye Fan swung his Fire Dragon Sword, first creating an absolute defense that protected Xi He and Nu Ying within it. Then Ye Fan’s force attacked in the direction of the incoming force’s source.

"Boom!" A deafening noise echoed through the universe, spreading through a mysterious dark matter. Xi He felt her head nearly exploding from the sound.

In the clash of forces, Xi He had no qualification to resist. She could only passively watch Ye Fan confront this force.

Almost in an instant, everything around returned to calm. Ye Fan’s expression remained composed, and the incoming force was completely shattered.

"What happened?" Xi He couldn’t help but ask.

At this moment, Ye Fan’s attitude was still firm. Clearly, Ye Fan hadn’t suffered any damage in this attack. Nu Ying, with the lowest cultivation, felt the danger only after Ye Fan had resolved it.

"A force tried to attack me, its origin unknown," Ye Fan said. Then Ye Fan put away his Fire Dragon Sword. This shattered planet left no remnants of the force behind.

Xi He looked at the distant star domain and said, "The master can resolve such a force instantly; it seems the master already possesses the power to dominate the entire universe."

"Perhaps!" Ye Fan didn’t say much more. He waved his hand, saying, "Let’s go!"

Immediately, Xi He and Nu Ying were swept into Ye Fan’s power. They felt the surrounding space change, and then the three appeared on another planet where humans once lived.

But now, this planet had no living beings, only plants. The surrounding space resembled Earth, but it had reverted to a primitive ecological environment.

Nu Ying said, "How long will it take to find something, searching like this?"

"Until we find clues," Ye Fan replied, "Finding the force related to the celestial tribulation isn’t easy. If you don’t want to search, you can leave anytime; no one is forcing you."

Nu Ying began to remain silent.

Xi He stayed silent all along, while Ye Fan stood on the planet, suddenly closing his eyes, as if sensing something strange again.

Xi He asked, "Is the master sensing an impending danger?"

"Hard to say," Ye Fan replied, "I can’t pinpoint the source of this force yet, but it seems it’s related to the next celestial tribulation. What I can do is find this force and crush it completely..."

"But the master finding the force related to the celestial tribulation in advance may be somewhat unrealistic," Xi He frowned.

Ye Fan glanced at Xi He, suddenly walking slowly towards her, leaving Xi He a bit flustered.

Even with Xi He’s cultivation, among ancient cultivators, she was quite formidable. But in front of Ye Fan, she felt a tremendous pressure coming from the boundless dominance Ye Fan possessed. This made Xi He unable to balance her internal energy and unsure how to face Ye Fan.

"Master..." Xi He could only lower her head, seeking to relieve the pressure exerted by Ye Fan.

Ye Fan walked over, raised Xi He’s chin, and asked in a dignified tone, "I’ve always been curious, when my cultivation was inferior to yours, why did you choose to follow me?"

"Well..." Xi He seized the opportunity to probe, "Does the master still not remember what happened before?"

"You want to discover something from my answer? Then I’ll be direct: indeed, I don’t recall how we met, but I feel that my cultivation surpassed yours long after knowing you," Ye Fan said.

Xi He’s head was forcibly raised by Ye Fan’s hand; she wasn’t too comfortable but still calmly replied, "Because of the sovereign aura the master exudes."

"You are deceiving me. I can sense that since knowing me, you’ve always wanted to use my potential for your own purpose," Ye Fan said confidently, smiling.

Xi He said nothing, but her silence was a form of assent.

Ye Fan released his hand and walked step by step to Nu Ying, asking, "And what about you?"

"Me?" Nu Ying appeared much calmer before Ye Fan, as if her cultivation was higher, but facing Ye Fan head-on, her gaze carried a touch of shyness. Even she knew she couldn’t rival Ye Fan.

Xi He slowly stepped behind Nu Ying, saying, "Nu Ying, remember what I told you? If you want protection, you’d better rely on the master; that’s the only way to save your life. If you still want to betray him, you’re asking for death!"

"Then what?" Nu Ying gritted her teeth.

Xi He said nothing more but embraced Nu Ying from behind, making her feel uncomfortable.

What happened next made her even more uneasy, as Xi He whispered in her ear, "Don’t see yourself as an ancient cultivator; you are the master’s woman and must make a blood oath."

Then, Xi He pressed her hands down, forcing Nu Ying to kneel before Ye Fan.

Xi He lowered her head and said, "Please accept this servant, master."

Ye Fan smiled slightly, then melted a drop of blood into Nu Ying’s body, completely controlling her Spiritual Energy. When Nu Ying opened her eyes again, she sensed Ye Fan approaching.

"What... should I do?" Nu Ying asked, looking lost.

Xi He also slowly knelt beside Nu Ying, her expression naturally said, "For things you can’t handle, follow me."

After speaking, Ye Fan joined the two. Xi He raised her head slightly, as if she were a devoted believer choosing to submit in a new way to Ye Fan, the master.

Ye Fan’s hand landed on Nu Ying’s head, saying, "If you want my protection, you must become my woman; I won’t help someone unrelated."
