When Ye Fan arrived at the hotel, it was already 2:30 in the morning. Li Zhaojun was talking with Min Shang and Lan Jing. Upon seeing Ye Fan open the door and come in, she got up to greet him, just like a virtuous little wife.
"Haven't you gone to find Senior Brother and Senior Sister yet?" Ye Fan asked.
"No, you said you'd come back and go with you." Li Zhaojun said, handing a document to Ye Fan. It was a transfer document sent by Han Qing'er, including some industries and properties, all to be transferred under Ye Fan's name.
Ye Fan waved his hand and said, "There's no point in all these falsities. Tell her later that she can keep them if she likes."
Li Zhaojun smiled and said, "Perhaps this is just her way of showing loyalty to you?"
Suddenly, Ye Fan felt that Li Zhaojun was somewhat jealous. Among the women around Ye Fan, the simplest relationship was with Han Qing'er. The two of them didn't have to worry about emotional burdens. Ye Fan didn't even need to have feelings for Han Qing'er. He could call her when needed, and she could go wherever she wanted when not needed. But Han Qing'er had to maintain absolute loyalty to Ye Fan, because Ye Fan was neither her husband nor boyfriend, but just a master who could freely control her and could even decide her life and death.
Thinking about Han Qing'er's originally wild and untamed demeanor, now obedient and docile, Ye Fan still felt a sense of conquest.
Ye Fan didn't want to discuss Han Qing'er with Li Zhaojun, so he said, "Let's go and meet Senior Brother and Senior Sister together and ask them about the Tianxuan Sect."
"Okay."
Li Zhaojun, Min Shang, and Lan Jing left the hotel together and soon arrived at the hotel where Wu Ding and Elder Wu were staying.
Ye Fan handed the room card to the front desk and inquired about the situation last night, learning that Wu Ding and Elder Wu hadn't checked out.
As they went upstairs and arrived outside the room, Wu Ding's voice could be heard from afar, "Junior Brother, you're so heartless, leaving us here and not even greeting us after coming back?"
Ye Fan opened the door and saw Wu Ding and Elder Wu standing inside, along with Li Bei and Song Zhao and Song Xian.
However, Song Zhao and Song Xian's condition was very miserable at this point. The spiritual energy in them was almost completely depleted, and they were suffering immense pain, a torturous ordeal.
"Senior Brother, Senior Sister." Ye Fan bowed his fists in salute after entering.
"No need to be polite, Junior Brother. How long have you been back? At least more than an hour, right?" Wu Ding coldly looked at Ye Fan.
Ye Fan said, "How did Senior Sister know I returned to Earth?"
"You think I don't know? Humph, with my cultivation, what would I not know?" Wu Ding seemed somewhat angry but then noticed Ye Fan's expression turning cold.
"Is Senior Sister monitoring me?" Ye Fan asked coldly.
Wu Ding's face showed a strange expression, "Junior Brother, do you think I'm a pervert? Why would Senior Sister monitor you? I... I just sensed pressure from the spiritual energy around the city and sensed your pure Yang spiritual energy. As for where you are, I don't have time to investigate."
Elder Wu also said, "Your Senior Sister did not probe into you."
In the past, Ye Fan would have surely believed them, but since witnessing Hua Wu's behavior with the five major sects at the Tianxuan Sect, he started feeling that there was no trustworthy person in the Pan Gu Secret Realm apart from his dearest and most beloved ones.
Elder Wu said, "Is it to say... you are not the Chosen One?"
"Yes." Ye Fan nodded, with no regrets on his face, "For Senior Brother and Senior Sister to come to Earth, is there no other reason except to persuade me to return to the Pan Gu Secret Realm?"
Wu Ding furrowed her brows and asked, "What do you mean?"
Ye Fan said, "The matter of the Tianxuan Sect, you should already know, right?"
Wu Ding and Elder Wu exchanged a glance, and Elder Wu asked, "What about the Tianxuan Sect? Did something happen during the time you were back in the Pan Gu Secret Realm? Was it the Diyuan Sect or the Huangji Sect?"
Ye Fan observed Elder Wu's reaction, which did not seem to be a pretense, so Ye Fan roughly explained the matter of the Tianxuan Sect. Wu Ding and Elder Wu were greatly surprised.
"Junior Brother, are you joking? You mean... Master... the Sect Master imprisoned people from the five major sects and had collusions with Diyuan Sect people?" Wu Ding was astounded.
"Yes." Ye Fan nodded.
"Impossible, you brat! You must be deceiving us. How could the Sect Master be such a person?" Wu Ding clenched her fists.
Li Zhaojun said from the side, "Elder Wu Ding, the matter is indeed like this. There was also the shadow we saw before, who also seems to have been involved in this conspiracy."
Elder Wu said, "Junior Brother, stay here for now. Your Senior Sister and I will return to the Secret Realm and see what's going on."
Ye Fan said, "If Senior Brother and Senior Sister have not been involved in this matter, then there's no need to go back, because with our strength, we can't fight against the Diyuan Sect, not to mention that the Sect Master and others are assisting the Diyuan Sect..."
"How could it be? Why didn't Master discuss his actions with me?" Wu Ding's expression carried a bit of pain, feeling betrayed by her own Master.
Although she was a generation lower than Hua Wu, Jing Ya, and Hui Ning, she was also an elder of the Tianxuan Sect.
Qing Xu came out from the room next door with a big teddy bear, asking, "Senior Brother, you're back."
The little girl didn't understand anything else, but on Earth, with good food and entertainment, she was much happier than in the Pan Gu Secret Realm. She tossed the teddy bear aside, hugged Ye Fan by the arm, and leaned her head against him affectionately.
"Junior Sister, do you know about the Sect Master's affairs?" Wu Ding suddenly asked Qing Xu sharply.
Qing Xu, puzzled, said, "Sister Wu Ding, what are you talking about?"
Elder Wu stood by the window, letting out a long sigh, "Looks like we've been deceived. When the Sect Master planned this, he hid it from all of us. But I believe that the Sect Master, Master, and Uncle-Master Hui Ning had their reasons for doing this. It wouldn't be a simple matter of cooperating with the Diyuan Sect."
Suddenly, Wu Ding drew her magical sword and pointed at Elder Wu, "Senior Brother, you sound a bit insincere. Junior Brother and I didn't return, so we wouldn't know, but you returned to the sect midway. The Sect Master even let you bring Junior Sister here. Can you say you knew nothing?"
"Junior Sister, what do you mean?" Elder Wu glared at Wu Ding, "Are you suggesting that I was involved in the plan, and coming here was just to deceive and monitor you?"
"Humph, you're admitting it yourself. Junior Brother, stay away from Junior Sister. Don't be fooled by her innocent appearance. If this little girl was brainwashed by the Sect Master and your Master, she could turn against you at any moment!"
Qing Xu was the most innocent, looking wide-eyed and asking, "Senior Sister, who got brainwashed? What do you mean? Qing Neng Senior Brother, do you know?"
The room was tense. Ye Fan raised his hand and said, "Enough. No need for infighting among ourselves. I trust Senior Brother Qing Wu and Junior Sister Qing Xu. Actually, even if the Sect Master and Master hid this matter from us, they didn't do anything to me. They still let me return to Earth. This shows that they consider us as their own and wouldn't turn against us!"
