Yun Fan was flustered this time. He hadn't expected Bi Yao to be so thoroughly prepared. With his current strength, breaking through her barrier was a pipe dream.
"Disciple, you are still young. You cannot tread the path of sin!" Yun Fan quickly warned.
But Bi Yao said, "Master, it's too late for that. Stop struggling. Don't you want to take revenge on Empress Yao Xi? Without me, how can you achieve that? Only when I become strong can you better avenge yourself!"
"No, why don't you believe me? The source of demonic power is too terrifying. Never attempt it, or you will be annihilated!" Yun Fan cautioned. "This is one of the reasons I can't let you act recklessly. Of course, I am your master. As master and disciple, there's no need to cross that boundary!"
In any case, Yun Fan just wanted to persuade Yao Xi.
But Yao Xi said, "Master, don't be so worried. I won't blame you. Everything is voluntary on my part. Moreover, even if I fail, I will have no regrets!"
However, Yun Fan said, "Forget it. With your talent, reaching that height is natural. There's no need to take risks!"
Yet, Bi Yao said, "Master, I have no choice!"
Then, she walked towards Yun Fan step by step.
Yun Fan retreated repeatedly until he had nowhere left to go, and Bi Yao had her way.
It happened rather suddenly, without any preparation.
After everything was over, Bi Yao said tenderly, "From today onwards, you are no longer my master! You are my man!"
"Leave!" Yun Fan immediately snapped. At this moment, he had no good feelings towards Bi Yao. How could she do such a thing to him? The key was that he didn't even have a chance to resist.
Bi Yao smiled and said, "My little man, when I become an existence like the Empress in the future, won't it be good for you to be the man behind me?"
It had to be said that under the influence of demonic power, Bi Yao had completely changed. She was no longer the gentle female disciple she used to be. She was now an outright ambitious schemer, and even Yun Fan was frightened. He always felt that nurturing Bi Yao had been a mistake, and it would inevitably lead to great disaster.
"From now on, we will pretend we don't know each other!" Yun Fan was truly angry.
But Bi Yao said, "Are you that heartless? You took advantage of me and now you want to turn your back? That's not going to happen!"
Hearing this, Yun Fan felt wronged.
"You were the one who forced me!" Yun Fan argued, but Bi Yao said, "So what? Since you've gotten me, you must be my man, and only mine!"
"Impossible!" Yun Fan refused outright. Firstly, he did not acknowledge Bi Yao as his woman, even though she had given him her first time. But she was the first person he didn't want to acknowledge as his woman, because Bi Yao had ulterior motives from beginning to end. Secondly, he had truly resisted, and resisted with all his might. It was just that he couldn't resist at all, so it truly wasn't his fault. Now Bi Yao was being so domineering, which made him completely repulsed by her.
But Bi Yao said, "If you don't agree, then I will destroy this world and make it disappear completely!"
"What?" Yun Fan gasped, finally realizing that after obtaining his demonic essence, Bi Yao did not suffer any danger. Instead, she had become incredibly powerful. This meant Bi Yao had succeeded, and her success astonished him. She was indeed a person with talent and ambition no weaker than Yao Xi. Even in his peak state, he was no match for Bi Yao now, and the gap was significant.
"So? Consider it!" Bi Yao sneered at Yun Fan. "Of course, I will not only destroy this world, but I will also kill you. Only by killing you will no one else be able to cultivate an existence like me!" She realized that while Yun Fan's strength might not be impressive, the disciples he cultivated were terrifying, like Yao Xi and herself. Even though she was far behind Yao Xi now, as soon as she returned to the immortal realm, she would become an existence comparable to Yao Xi in a few years. This was not an exaggeration, for she had her reliance: Yun Fan's demonic essence. After all, Yao Xi had not obtained Yun Fan's demonic essence, so her innate advantage was higher. It was understandable that her future achievements would surpass Yao Xi's; perhaps she could even break the strongest laws of the immortal realm. Now her ambition had extended beyond the immortal realm.
At this moment, Yun Fan regretted, "I shouldn't have nurtured you in the first place!" He cursed himself for what sin he had committed! He had nurtured two of the strongest disciples, but both of them ultimately intended to kill their master. He cursed his own bad luck. Therefore, at this moment, he could not be as stubborn as he was ten thousand years ago; he had to save himself. If he were to receive another ten-thousand-year gift package, he would likely be utterly depressed. Time waited for no one!
Bi Yao said proudly, "One day, I will be your pride! Isn't becoming like this wonderful? This is my dream, and it can finally be realized!"
"Hiss!" Yun Fan gasped. When Bi Yao's ambition was fully unleashed, she was even more frantic than Yao Xi. So, he immediately said to Bi Yao, "Don't mess around. I promise you, alright!"
"Good!" Bi Yao said, "My man, come with me to the edge of this world now. I will use my supreme power to repair the rules and go to the immortal realm! The immortal realm is our ultimate destination!"
Yun Fan felt that he needed to have a good talk with Bi Yao. He said to her, "How about this: from today onwards, I have no relation with you, nor will I obstruct you. I will also not nurture anyone with potential like you. Let's just pretend we don't know each other, okay?" Yes, he wanted to sever ties with Bi Yao. He thought that since he had helped Bi Yao so much, severing ties should be fine, right!
Unexpectedly, Bi Yao said, "No, only you are worthy of me, and you have already obtained me!"
"You took advantage of me!" Yun Fan reminded her.
"It's all the same!" Bi Yao said, "If you don't come to the immortal realm with me, then I will kill you. If I cannot have you, no one else will!"
The negotiation failed, and Yun Fan was dejected. He shouldn't have listened to Nuwa back then. So, he said, "Fine, I promise you, but can I go back and say goodbye?"
"Yes, but you only have two hours!" Bi Yao said bluntly, giving Yun Fan the shortest possible time. Yun Fan was so depressed he almost spat blood. What kind of situation was this! It seemed he shouldn't casually train "alt accounts" in the future. Because once his "alt account" grew up, he would be the most miserable one.
Taking advantage of this time, Yun Fan went to the Heavenly Demon Hall and told Nuwa and the others everything.
"What?" Nuwa and Jiutian Xuannü's faces instantly changed. They hadn't expected that Yun Fan, unintentionally, had cultivated an existence more terrifying than Yao Xi.
"Should we take action directly and deal with her in this world?" Athena asked Yun Fan. Although she and Jiutian Xuannü were certainly no match, perhaps they couldn't even withstand a single move from her. But don't forget, perhaps Yun Fan and Nuwa working together would have a slim chance of winning.
Nuwa said furiously, "Let's kick her ass! Grab your weapons!" Yun Fan had disagreed with taking Bi Yao as a disciple in the first place. It was she who had brought them together. If their relationship weren't husband and wife, people might even suspect her of being a traitor.
At this moment, Yun Fan said, "No!"
"But she's bullying us!" Jiutian Xuannü couldn't tolerate it at all. She only allowed Yun Fan to have Bi Yao as his woman, so what did that make them?
Yun Fan said, "It's come to this. We can only stabilize her for now. After all, none of us are her match. She is currently stronger than Yao Xi ten thousand years ago!"
Upon hearing this, the women were stunned. How could they fight? They might as well surrender.
Yun Fan said, "However, there's no need to worry. I have a plan!"
"What plan?" The women looked at Yun Fan in confusion.
"After I repair the rules with her, I will cooperate with her conditions first and leave the divine realm for the immortal realm. When I have developed sufficiently, I will turn against her!" This was Yun Fan's intention.
"But can your cultivation catch up to hers? Don't forget, there's also the even stronger Yao Xi!" The women showed doubtful eyes. It wasn't that they didn't believe in Yun Fan's strength, but because Yao Xi and Bi Yao, after merging with demonic power, had progressed by leaps and bounds with their immortal paths. Even Yun Fan's purest demonic power seemed unable to catch up.
Yun Fan said, "There's no need to rush about this. According to the strange memories, before I descended into this world, I should have been an extremely powerful existence. Recovering my strength should be simpler than breaking through. Perhaps my peak strength can crush them?" This was Yun Fan's last hope anyway.
At this moment, the three women said, "Alright, it's just that you're suffering."
"It's nothing!" Yun Fan said, "Not only that, but I also need to leave behind a contingency!"
"What contingency?" Just as the women were puzzled, Yun Fan directly took out his demonic power and a portion of his demonic essence. "This is the contingency!" Yun Fan reminded them, "You can try to slowly refine the demonic power, but absolutely do not touch the demonic essence, unless it's Tian Xin, whose talent can bear it!" Hearing this, the women understood.
"Husband, go with peace of mind!" Nuwa said, "I will find a way to open the passage to the mortal world, and the divine realm will be left to us!" "Come back when you have the opportunity!" There was no other choice. Although everyone was reluctant to part, Yun Fan's time was running out. At this moment, Yun Fan felt extremely stifled, but what could he do! So, Yun Fan said, "Okay, this departure won't be too long. Perhaps before my strength recovers to its peak, when she and Yao Xi clash, it will be about time!"
"Mm-hmm!" The three women nodded. This was also unavoidable. It was just a pity that Yun Fan knew that if he didn't leave after two hours, the other party would take action. Otherwise, he would still have to find a way to open the passage to the mortal world and say goodbye there. He could only say that this departure was against his will.
...
"Have you finished saying goodbye?" Bi Yao asked Yun Fan.
"I'm done saying goodbye!" Yun Fan said bluntly. But Bi Yao frowned, "You seem a little reluctant!"
"How could that be? I'm very willing. After we go to the immortal realm, you must protect me!" Yun Fan warned Bi Yao, dispelling her vigilance.
Bi Yao said, "Don't worry! I will protect you well. You can never escape my grasp. I suspect Yao Xi might be more interested in you!" "So, I must protect you even more!"
"Then I can rest assured!" Yun Fan felt very depressed because, at this moment, he still had to pretend to be excited. Oh heavens! What sin had he committed! Afterward, the two arrived at the edge of the divine realm. Bi Yao used her half-demonic, half-immortal power to repair the rules quite easily, much simpler than Yun Fan had imagined. At this time, she said to Yun Fan, "Let's go!"
"What do you want to do?" Yun Fan asked because he now sensed a powerful killing intent from Bi Yao. This killing intent was not directed at him, but at the divine realm. In other words, Bi Yao intended to destroy the divine realm. Yun Fan would not agree to this.
Bi Yao said, "If I destroy the divine realm now, won't you have no worries, and belong only to me in the future?" Hearing this, Yun Fan's expression changed, and he said, "There's no need for that. I belong only to you now. If you really want to destroy the divine realm, then don't blame me for turning ruthless! Even if you kill me, I'll do the same!"
"Is that so? Then I really will destroy the divine realm!" Bi Yao smiled playfully, not taking Yun Fan's warning seriously at all. Yun Fan quickly said again, "If I die, it will be of no benefit to you!"
"If I cannot have you, am I not allowed to destroy it?" she asked Yun Fan.
Yun Fan said, "I've realized that I haven't comprehended the origin of the immortal path yet. If I had the strength of a true immortal, the origin I comprehended might be even stronger. At that time, I could help you, wouldn't your growth be even faster?" Hearing this, Bi Yao said, "You are truly a clever one. I must say, you have convinced me! I agree!" Yun Fan breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't know what kind of existence could control such an ambitious schemer! He certainly couldn't. Afterward, the two left the divine realm and headed towards the immortal realm. Whether it was the divine realm or the mortal world, they were essentially just one world, and that world was called Earth. Now, leaving this homeland, Yun Fan felt an inexpressible pain in his heart. He didn't want to leave, but he had no choice now. He cast a final glance at his homeland, shedding a single tear. "Wait for me, I will return soon!" Yun Fan said in his heart, on the verge of collapse. Just then, a rift appeared in the barrier, and the two left through it. This rift was unknown how many miles wide; they traveled for a long time. Just as they reached the edge of the immortal realm, a spatial turbulence suddenly appeared, accompanied by powerful immortal energy.
"Be careful!" Bi Yao tried to grab Yun Fan, only to find him falling at an extremely fast speed.
"Help me!" Yun Fan was greatly alarmed. With his strength, he could not withstand this scattered immortal energy at all. Bi Yao tried her best to save Yun Fan, but ultimately failed.
"Damn it!" Bi Yao cursed angrily, but in the end, she couldn't save Yun Fan, and could only watch him disappear into the spatial turbulence. "I'm sorry!" Bi Yao felt extremely guilty. "One day, I will find you! Because you belong only to me!" Then, she could only resist the immortal energy while rushing towards the immortal realm, and finally succeeded, reaching the immortal realm. Looking back, Yun Fan was nowhere to be seen. At this moment, Bi Yao was very sad. Although she had forced Yun Fan to come, it didn't mean she had no feelings for him. On the contrary, it was precisely because she cared so much about Yun Fan that she wanted to control him tightly. She just hadn't expected such an accident to happen. She didn't know if Yun Fan was alive or dead. Afterward, Bi Yao wiped away her tears and walked towards the immortal realm she was familiar with. As she walked, she had already recovered her true immortal strength. Without the suppression of rules, recovering her strength was an easy matter. But she was not content with this. She still wanted to break through to a stronger realm, until she was on par with the Empress, or even surpassed her. There could only be one Empress in the immortal realm, and that could only be her.
