Invincible Young Master in the City-Chapter 1595 - 1591: Battle at the Pinnacle

Nuwa looked at Xi He, sneering, "Xi He, I came to help you, and now you’re aiding Ye Fan to suppress me? Haha, this is the biggest joke; does this mean you’re ready to wait for death in front of Ye Fan? Or are you preparing to become a traitor against the ancient cultivators?"

Xi He closed her eyes as the Pure Yang Spiritual Energy continued to accumulate around her body, saying, "I never said I wanted to kill Ye Fan. If he wishes to kill me, it’s because I imprisoned his woman, but no one shall dare to harm Ye Fan in the slightest in front of me!"

After Xi He made the promise to protect Ye Fan, the nearby Su Nu, Xuan Nu, and Lei Zu also scrutinized Xi He with puzzled expressions.

Nuwa said, "Ye Fan, you certainly have attracted a unique woman. I never thought Xi He’s character would be so eccentric. I created her, but her character is beyond my control! This is the uncertainty of living beings’ thoughts. If one day you become a creator capable of altering humankind, Xi He’s example may serve as a cautionary tale for you!"

Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman said, "Nuwa, what do you mean by this? Are you also suggesting that you want to stand on Ye Fan’s side?"

Yellow Emperor said, "You are provoking Nuwa’s absolute authority, Xuan Nu. Though you are appointed by Pan Gu and Fu Xi as an ancient power, do you think I can’t kill you?"

"Yellow Emperor, you’re not truly an ancient power, and you have no right to challenge our authority!" Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman shouted fiercely, "By obeying Nuwa’s commands, you’re betraying Pan Gu and Fu Xi. Now you’re our public enemy; though I can’t match you alone, here are Su Nu, Xi He, and Ye Fan. Combined, can’t we defeat you?"

"Hahaha!" Yellow Emperor laughed loudly, "Then give it a try!"

A great battle seemed inevitable. At this moment, Ye Fan remained vigilant; he wouldn’t easily let himself fall into peril.

Just as Yellow Emperor showed signs of making the first move, Nuwa said, "Yellow Emperor, you can’t harm Ye Fan, but Xi He...you needn’t hold back!"

Nuwa’s command puzzled not only Xuan Nu and others but even Yellow Emperor struggled to comprehend.

Yet Yellow Emperor adhered strictly to Nuwa’s orders, immediately striking at Xi He. Countless rays of red light gathered around Yellow Emperor from all directions, forming a red halo that enveloped Xi He’s body and attacked her.

The Pure Yang Spiritual Energy around Xi He’s body formed a pale yellow glow.

The red halo mounted an offensive, while the pale yellow glow represented defense. Yellow Emperor’s red halo clearly held an absolute advantage in terms of attack strength, poised to soon envelop the pale yellow glow.

It was like a silent stream of light; surrounding sounds seemed evaporated by this formidable force. The battle between Yellow Emperor and Xi He unfolded subtly, lacking the earth-shattering character of the clashes Ye Fan envisioned among masters.

As Yellow Emperor attacked Xi He, Ye Fan’s elemental forces rapidly formed a protective barrier, first shielding Lei Zu, Xuan Nu, and Su Nu within it. Despite Xi He assisting Ye Fan, he was not positioned on Xi He’s side.

Ye Fan aimed to reclaim his woman from Xi He; he disagreed with her protective stance, viewing it instead as mere posturing. Even if Yellow Emperor were to kill Xi He, he wouldn’t intervene to assist.

Ye Fan held little interest in the conflicts among ancient cultivators. His primary goal now was to rescue Li Zhaojun and the others.

...

...

Though Xi He appeared disadvantaged facing Yellow Emperor’s attack, in reality, she was not. Despite not being an ancient power, her cultivation exceeded many ancient powers.

Both she and Yellow Emperor were abnormalities among ancient cultivators; neither sought fame or fortune, with Xi He desiring seclusion. Yet due to the conflict between Ye Fan and Nuwa, they engaged in an unprecedented battle within the Death Sea pits of Pan Gu’s mystical realm.

This was the most formidable confrontation in thousands of years between those with the strongest cultivation. Even Ye Fan’s previous interference with Xi He’s internal Spiritual Energy couldn’t compare with the scale of the clash before them.

All cultivators within Pan Gu’s mystical realm could sense a temporary vacuum of Spiritual Energy forming; under the pressure of immense Spiritual Energy, the realm’s Spiritual Energy was forced into compression.

Xi He’s Pure Yang Spiritual Energy was not lost to Yellow Emperor’s red halo.

Ye Fan knew that Yellow Emperor’s red halo, named "Fierce Spiritual Energy," comprised a fusion of light, fire, and rainstorm-like elemental forces, part of a unique cultivation system among ancient cultivators.

Yellow Emperor’s position among ancient cultivators was highly revered; when Pan Gu, Fu Xi, Nuwa, Emperor Jun, and others constructed Pan Gu’s mystical realm with their powers, Yellow Emperor long served as an enforcer in the cultivation world, as only his powers could regulate all beings.

The conflict between Yellow Emperor’s Fierce Spiritual Energy and Xi He’s Pure Yang Spiritual Energy unfolded on an epic scale. Visually, the battle seemed minor, confined to the clash between two people, but they distorted space itself. Centered around the Death Sea, Pan Gu’s mystical realm was compressed, forcing earth and seas to vanish into the void.

"Ye Fan, Xi He appears to be struggling; want to help her so you can rescue Li Zhaojun and my daughter?" Xuan Nu noticed Xi He falling behind in her battle with Yellow Emperor and quickly reminded Ye Fan.

Yet with surrounding air evaporated, sound couldn’t travel. She had to rely on her Spiritual Energy to form a medium to convey her words to Ye Fan’s ears.

In actuality, Ye Fan’s Tongling Mirror could see what Xuan Nu was saying.

Ye Fan also sensed that, upon interference from his elemental forces, Xi He’s internal Spiritual Energy manifested signs of a strong eruption, severely damaging her cultivation. At this moment, Yellow Emperor’s cultivation far surpassed Xi He’s. If Ye Fan didn’t aid Xi He, she was likely to be killed by Yellow Emperor.

If Xi He perished, the next targets would be himself, Xuan Nu, and Su Nu. Nuwa was intent on carrying out a scheme to destroy the realm of living beings, and they were her obstacles.

At a critical juncture, Ye Fan had to intervene. The elemental barrier surrounding him suddenly shifted direction, gathering to form a sharp arrow again. This time, he didn’t direct his elemental forces towards Xi He, but aimed directly at Yellow Emperor’s weak point, intending to employ the strategy of surrounding Wei to rescue Zhao, forcing Yellow Emperor into defense to extricate Xi He.
