At this moment, Yun Fan and Xi Huang arrived in the Origin Realm.
Xi Huang found the origin of the Creation God and then merged it into her body.
After all, for her, as long as the origin was fused, she would no longer be at her current level.
She could ascend to the height of the Creation God.
After all, the strength of the Creation God was evident.
However, during the fusion process, she tried several times but did not succeed.
Just as she was getting anxious, Yun Fan arrived.
"Husband, I can't fuse successfully!"
Xi Huang said coquettishly.
She was very anxious at this moment.
Yun Fan said, "Don't worry, let me see what's going on!"
"Mhm!"
Xi Huang nodded.
Then, Yun Fan began to help, but with his assistance, there was no improvement.
Finally, Yun Fan said, "It seems we can only cultivate together!"
Upon hearing this, Xi Huang felt a little shy, but this was also something she had longed for.
Therefore, she said to Yun Fan, "Okay! I'll do as you say!"
Recalling the once aloof Xi Huang, who had now become such an obedient woman, it was impossible for Yun Fan not to be happy.
However, this was also normal, given his charm.
Thus, Yun Fan began his steps.
Under the joint cultivation, he circulated the power of Zhan Tian to help Xi Huang consolidate her cultivation, and finally, the origin merged with Xi Huang.
Xi Huang also underwent a transformative change.
In Yun Fan's estimation, Xi Huang's strength was immense, feeling no weaker than his current self.
This was the true power of the Creation God.
In terms of strength, the Creation God was much stronger than the Destruction God.
At this moment, Yun Fan asked Xi Huang, "How does it feel?"
"Yun Fan, it's wonderful!"
Xi Huang said shyly.
*Slap!*
At this moment, Yun Fan spanked Xi Huang's backside, causing her considerable pain.
"Do you know you're wrong?"
Yun Fan asked her.
"I don't know what I did wrong!"
Xi Huang asked angrily, "What is my mistake?"
"Your mistake is not calling me 'Guan Ren'!"
Yun Fan said directly.
Upon hearing this, Xi Huang said angrily, "You haven't conquered me yet, why should I call you Guan Ren!"
Yun Fan was instantly amused. With his combat power, it was no exaggeration to say that no woman was his match.
He hadn't expected Xi Huang to have such a demand.
Therefore, Yun Fan immediately said, "If I conquer you, will you call me Guan Ren then!"
"Mhm!"
Xi Huang said provocatively, "I'm afraid you don't have the strength!"
"Alright, you wait!"
This time, Yun Fan had to defeat Xi Huang, otherwise, his prestige would be compromised.
Indeed, with Yun Fan going all out, Xi Huang began to beg for mercy.
"Guan Ren, I was wrong, please spare me!"
At this moment, Xi Huang realized that she had provoked someone she shouldn't have.
Unexpectedly, Yun Fan said, "It's too late!"
...
Ten days passed, and Xi Huang was completely subdued.
Now, she was no longer stubborn but full of tenderness.
Even Xi Huang hadn't expected to have such a tender day.
It was inevitable, as she was no match for Yun Fan.
If she wasn't tender, she feared Yun Fan would deal with her, which was why she was so tender.
Thus, Yun Fan reunited with his women in the Fusang Divine Realm.
At the same time, he never stopped cultivating, because he knew he was far from a match for the Tai Hua Saintess.
Just one Jin Sheng had almost made him stumble. Although he had risen, he was still far from the peak.
One day, a powerful figure arrived in the Origin Realm. He held a sword in one hand, and the other hand was broken.
He seemed to lack spirit.
But Yun Fan could sense his power, which was extremely strong, even much stronger than Jin Sheng.
Facing this person, he had no chance of winning. He didn't even need to rely on his feelings; the difference was clear just by standing together.
Fortunately, this time he was not alone, as he had his family to share the burden with him, Xi Huang.
As time passed, there would be many more.
After all, his women were not slow in their growth.
Of course, all that was for later. For now, the most important thing was to face the enemy before them.
"Who are you?"
Yun Fan asked, puzzled.
The other party said, "I didn't expect you to not recognize me. You personally severed one of my hands back then, and now I've come to return the favor!"
Upon hearing this, Yun Fan continued to ask, "Were you sent by the Tai Hua Saintess?"
"Of course not!"
He said to Yun Fan, "I fight only for myself. I heard you've risen, so I've come looking for you. Are you afraid?"
Yun Fan shook his head, "There is no word 'fear' in my eyes!"
He then said to Yun Fan, "Since you don't know my name, then I'll tell you. I am the Sword Emperor!"
The emperor among swordsmen, his strength was just one step away from the peak. However, after his arm was broken, that one step became an insurmountable chasm.
Upon hearing this, Yun Fan said, "It seems you are a master of the sword. Are you here to kill me?"
"That's right!"
The Sword Emperor said to Yun Fan, "After all, the price of one arm is not small. Now I will also cut off one of your arms. Whether I kill you or not is no longer important!"
Yun Fan said, "Then there's nothing more to say! Let's begin!"
At this moment, Xi Huang came to Yun Fan's side, "Guan Ren, I will fight with you!"
This was Xi Huang's determination.
"I didn't expect that after so many years, you would only dare to fight me with the help of a woman!"
The Sword Emperor said to Yun Fan, "I look down on you!"
Unexpectedly, Yun Fan said directly, "It's a skill to rely on a woman. The problem is not having anyone to rely on and fighting alone!"
"Very good!"
The Sword Emperor said to Yun Fan, "One more person makes no difference to me!"
In an instant, he unleashed a sword strike.
This sword strike possessed the might of dominating all ages. The sword energy alone shocked Yun Fan and Xi Huang.
Ultimately, this sword energy surged forward. It was only through the combined efforts of Yun Fan and Xi Huang that they barely managed to neutralize it.
Even so, both of them retreated several steps before stopping.
Clearly, even their combined strength was no match for the Sword Emperor, which showed how terrifying his power was.
The Sword Emperor shook his head.
"Back then, you could catch my peak sword strike with your bare hands, but now you don't even qualify to catch one of my moves!"
He said to Yun Fan, "Why don't I help you find release? Because ultimately, you cannot achieve great things!"
Then, he unleashed another earth-shattering sword strike.
This sword strike was resplendent and dazzling, but if you were merely mesmerized by its beauty, you would be gravely mistaken.
Because at this moment, this sword strike had split into two sword energies, rushing towards them.
Clearly, the Sword Emperor gave no opportunity for Yun Fan and Xi Huang to combine their efforts.
Thus, each of them blocked one sword energy.
However, both Xi Huang and Yun Fan's arms bled.
Clearly, even the dispersed sword energy could firmly suppress the two of them. The Sword Emperor's strength was truly terrifying.
At this moment, Yun Fan switched from defense to offense, charging forward with full force.
He used the power of Zhan Tian to clear a path, attempting to engage the Sword Emperor in close combat, but how could the Sword Emperor not know Yun Fan's intention?
Therefore, he fought while retreating, clearing the path with incredibly domineering and sharp sword energy. Yun Fan could not get close.
"Slash!"
Xi Huang attacked from behind, intending to launch a surprise attack.
Unexpectedly, the Sword Emperor was prepared. He threw his sword into the air, splitting it into countless swords. The sword energies collided, dazzling and magnificent.
Myriad Swords Return to the Origin.
This directly forced Xi Huang to retreat repeatedly. It could only be said that the two were not on the same level of power.
Of course, after the Sword Emperor unleashed these flashy sword energies, Yun Fan struck the Sword Emperor with a punch.
"Success!"
Xi Huang showed excitement. As expected of the man she had chosen, he was simply too strong.
The Sword Emperor flew back like a kite with a broken string.
Yun Fan pressed his advantage, summoning the Nine Heavens Profound Thunder, preparing to annihilate the Sword Emperor.
Unexpectedly, the Sword Emperor directly placed his sword at Yun Fan's neck.
The speed was so astonishing that both of them trembled.
At this moment, the Sword Emperor said, "I win!"
"Indeed! You win!"
Yun Fan was also a magnanimous person. He had lost, and he had nothing to refute.
Seeing Yun Fan in the Sword Emperor's grasp, Xi Huang was helpless. At this moment, she dared not make a move.
At this moment, the Sword Emperor asked Yun Fan, "Do you want to die or lose an arm!"
Although his words were arrogant, he had the capital to be arrogant.
Yun Fan said, "My life is in your hands, so you can deal with me as you wish. You can kill me or cut off one of my arms!"
"Are you truly not afraid of death?"
The Sword Emperor asked Yun Fan from above.
"Not afraid!"
Yun Fan said firmly.
If he were truly afraid of death, he wouldn't have come this far. On the path of cultivation, one must put life and death aside.
At this moment, the Sword Emperor said to Yun Fan, "Then I will make my move!"
"No!"
Xi Huang quickly stopped him.
But the Sword Emperor gave Xi Huang no chance to beg, and directly made his move.
With a downward stroke of the sword, blood splattered in all directions. However, the Sword Emperor did not sever Yun Fan's arm or throat.
He merely cut a gash on Yun Fan's arm.
For a powerful being at Yun Fan's level, a minor injury meant nothing.
"Why?"
At this moment, it wasn't just Yun Fan, even Xi Huang was puzzled.
The Sword Emperor said crisply, "I will not kill you!"
"What?"
Both of them were confused, and then relieved.
The Sword Emperor said, "Although my arm was severed by you, everything is understandable. Back then, I was having problems with my cultivation and was in a state of qi deviation. It was you who severed my arm, saving me from danger. Although I could no longer reach that realm, at least I escaped the threat of death!"
This was the Sword Emperor's explanation to Yun Fan.
Yun Fan was greatly surprised. He hadn't expected things to be different from what he thought. He had indeed done the Sword Emperor a favor.
The Sword Emperor said, "We are both humans. My history is just earlier than yours, as I am an avatar of the Sword Ancestor and a pioneer of the human race. It's just that I don't have your strength to suppress the Ten Great Powerful Races. That was my dream, but I was not as capable as you!"
This was the Sword Emperor's truth.
Yun Fan said, "Since I saved you, why did you strike me so heavily?"
He expressed his anger.
The Sword Emperor said, "I merely wanted to test your strength and, coincidentally, ignite your fighting spirit. It seems you have not disappointed me, even though your current strength is very weak!"
Xi Huang asked, "My Guan Ren has no chance of winning now. What is your purpose in coming here?"
As far as Xi Huang was concerned, she was still not entirely at ease with the Sword Emperor.
The Sword Emperor said, "That's irrelevant. Everything has a process. Although there's no chance of victory, at least it has ignited Xi Huang. I've come to pledge allegiance!"
Damn it, pledging allegiance while being so arrogant, Yun Fan felt an urge to curse.
However, he had to endure it for now, as the Sword Emperor might become his absolute assistant.
At this moment, Yun Fan said, "Welcome to the team. However, I must say upfront, I currently have no confidence in defeating the Tai Hua Saintess!"
"You certainly don't have confidence. Perhaps you might have had it at your peak, but now it's absolutely impossible!"
The Sword Emperor said to Yun Fan, "But humanity needs you. The final era needs you!"
"What do you mean?"
Yun Fan asked, puzzled.
The Sword Emperor said, "The Tai Hua Saintess has become the leader of the Ten Ancient Powerful Races. Humanity is about to face an apocalyptic storm. You are the key figure to lead humanity out of this suffering. I cannot save humanity from this crisis, but I can help you! I can protect your path!"
This was the Sword Emperor's true intention. Perhaps the ultimate key figure was still Yun Fan.
But he could at least help Yun Fan withstand all the pressure before he rose to power.
Yun Fan was deeply moved upon hearing this.
He hadn't expected the Sword Emperor to help him, someone with no chance of winning, and even at the risk of offending the Tai Hua Saintess.
After all, in the entire final era, no one dared to offend the Tai Hua Saintess, not even to the slightest degree.
But the Sword Emperor dared, because the Sword Emperor had condensed his sword dao and already possessed an invincible sword dao heart.
Finally, Yun Fan asked the Sword Emperor, "I want to know what exactly happened between me and the Tai Hua Saintess. Do you know the reason?"
Xi Huang didn't know, as they were not from the same era. The Creation God didn't know, as her level was not high enough.
But the Sword Emperor definitely knew, as he was at that level.
The Sword Emperor said, "It was a stormy night!"
"And then?"
Yun Fan asked curiously.
"And then I don't know!"
The Sword Emperor said, "It happened very suddenly. When I received the news, you had already fallen. What happened between you and the Tai Hua Saintess, I'm afraid only you yourselves know. There are many circulating versions outside!"
"What are the specific versions?"
Although on Earth, such versions could only be called gossip, Yun Fan still wanted to know the reason.
The Sword Emperor said, "The first version is that you were promiscuous, which angered the Tai Hua Saintess, and you openly provoked her. In the end, she killed you in a fit of rage!"
"The second version is that I heard you and the Tai Hua Saintess had a significant disagreement when dealing with the Ten Great Powerful Races, and then you had a fierce fight, ultimately leading to your death at the hands of the Tai Hua Saintess!"
"There are many other versions after that, but I believe these two are more reliable!"
Upon hearing this, Yun Fan was speechless. Xi Huang looked at Yun Fan with an understanding gaze.
Clearly, she was more inclined to believe the first version.
However, in Yun Fan's opinion, the first version was unlikely. He was not promiscuous at all!
Although he had many women, there was no evidence that he was a promiscuous man.
In his view, the second version was more plausible.
Of course, he didn't dare to be too certain. Without knowing the absolute truth, he wouldn't make a judgment.
After all, anything was possible.
At this moment, Yun Fan said to the Sword Emperor, "Never mind that for now. I just want to know how the Tai Hua Saintess will deal with me next!"
This was what Yun Fan truly wanted to know.
The Sword Emperor said to Yun Fan, "The Tai Hua Saintess seems to still be in slumber. Her clone is in charge, but with my joining, her clone may not be able to overwhelm you. Therefore, in my opinion, the Ten Great Powerful Races will deal with you next! After all, you suppressed the Ten Great Powerful Races for countless eras, and they already hate you to the bone!"
Yun Fan said, "It seems there will be many fierce battles ahead!"
"It doesn't matter, I will take action!"
At this moment, the Sword Emperor drew his sword. After all, he was here to protect Yun Fan's path.
He said domineeringly, "From now on, no matter what danger arises, I will bear it for you!"
As soon as his words fell, the heavens and earth changed color, and countless winds and clouds converged into a powerful figure.
This figure exuded a terrifying aura, which was sinister and made people tremble.
This sinister energy quickly identified the newcomer. Yes, it was a powerful figure from the Heavenly Ghost clan, Li Gui Xing.
Li Gui Xing was the foremost expert of the Heavenly Ghost clan and its contemporary patriarch.
His strength was terrifyingly immense.
The Sword Emperor also knew that this person was an extremely troublesome expert. He hadn't expected that right after pledging allegiance to Yun Fan, such a powerful figure would come to deal with Yun Fan.
It could only be said that his luck was terrible.
"Are you going to bear it for me?"
Yun Fan asked the Sword Emperor doubtfully, because based on the aura alone, it was clear that the newcomer was a powerful being no less than the Sword Emperor.
The Sword Emperor regretted speaking so domineeringly just now, but words, once spoken, could not be taken back.
For the sake of pride, he said to Yun Fan, "You don't need to intervene, I will bear it alone!"
"Why don't we help you then!"
Xi Huang said, "One more person means one more chance of winning!"
"I said you don't need to, and I mean it!"
With that, the Sword Emperor powerfully drew his sword and charged forward.
Yun Fan and Xi Huang were instantly speechless. They hadn't expected the Sword Emperor to be so stubborn.
However, at this moment, they had no intention of helping the Sword Emperor. If they intervened now, it would surely incur the Sword Emperor's displeasure.
After all, a valiant warrior like the Sword Emperor would certainly not like anyone interfering in his battle.
Therefore, at this moment, Yun Fan chose to observe.
As expected, at this moment, the Sword Emperor clashed with Li Gui Xing.
"Sword Emperor, are you going to meddle in other people's business?"
Li Gui Xing looked at the Sword Emperor in confusion. He knew that the Sword Emperor was an ancient human expert whose strength should not be underestimated.
It was fortunate that the Sword Emperor was not at his peak. If he were at his peak, even Li Gui Xing might not be his match.
The Sword Emperor said, "Are you going to kill him?"
"That's right!"
Li Gui Xing said, "This is the Saintess's order. I hope you won't interfere. Do you dare to oppose the Saintess?"
However, the Sword Emperor said, "I don't care who wants to kill him. I have only one piece of advice: I will protect him. Without my permission, no one will be able to kill him!"
Upon hearing this, Li Gui Xing sneered, "Sword Emperor, you are old. You cannot protect him. No one can defy the Saintess's will, not even you!"
"If you have the guts, then come and try!"
The Sword Emperor said disdainfully.
At this moment, his aura did not weaken; he remained as calm and composed as ever.
One man, one sword, fighting alone against the world!
"Very well!"
Li Gui Xing said, "You are a senior. Today, I will test how strong your abilities truly are!"
In an instant, Li Gui Xing attacked. He summoned countless heavenly ghosts, which rushed towards the Sword Emperor.
The Sword Emperor dealt with them one by one, without hesitation. Although the sword in his hand was already rusty, it did not diminish its sharpness.
The two exchanged dozens of blows, yet the outcome remained undecided.
Li Gui Xing unleashed vengeful spirits that enveloped the Sword Emperor.
"Heaven and Earth Shattering First Sword!"
The Sword Emperor roared, initiating the sequence. His sword energy split into eight, corresponding to eight heavenly ghosts.
Then, both sides began to explode.
After this battle concluded, the condition of both individuals was far from optimistic.
Clearly, both Li Gui Xing and the Sword Emperor were in a sorry state.
At this very moment, Li Gui Xing swallowed all the heavenly ghosts, transforming himself into a mountain-sized being.
Then he roared.
Everything around him was sucked in, including the Sword Emperor.
As the Sword Emperor entered Li Gui Xing's body, he was entangled by countless resentments and heavenly ghosts.
"Senior, you can't hold on much longer!"
Li Gui Xing said disdainfully, "This is the consequence of meddling in other people's affairs!"
Unexpectedly, the Sword Emperor fiercely cut his wrist, using his blood to nurture the sword. The rusty sword directly transformed into a sharp treasure sword.
Then, with all his might, he unleashed a strike, severing Li Gui Xing's body.
"Ah!"
Li Gui Xing let out a scream. He hadn't expected the Sword Emperor to unleash such a terrifying sword strike.
Ultimately, he had underestimated the Sword Emperor.
However, for Li Gui Xing, it was at most a severe injury; he would not die.
He was not that fragile.
At this moment, the two faced each other across a distance.
Neither of them was willing to admit defeat in this battle. They would absolutely not fall until the very last moment.
At this moment, Yun Fan and Xi Huang were about to intervene, but the Sword Emperor cast them a glance. The two could only retreat.
"Damn it, why did they retreat?"
The Sword Emperor was utterly exasperated. In fact, the two had misunderstood him.
They thought he didn't need help, but the Sword Emperor genuinely needed help! It could only be said that he had boasted too much earlier.
Helplessly, the Sword Emperor could only go all out. Although Li Gui Xing was strong, it was not impossible to defeat him.
He raised his sword towards the heavens, and instantly, the righteous energy in heaven and earth began to flow into his sword. This sword represented the power of righteousness.
