Before Yun Fan could react, Yao Xi, having broken through to the tenth realm, launched herself directly towards Cang Xuan Divine Continent. Well, the tables have certainly turned.
Yun Fan quickly followed through the opening Yao Xi had created, but his speed was no match for hers.
Now, all he could do was pray in his heart that Bi Yao could hold on for a while. At that time, even if it cost him his old life, he would protect Bi Yao.
Of course, whether he could protect her was still unknown; he could only do his best.
...
Beneath the Hundred Thousand Immortal Mountains of the Immortal Realm, a figure quietly emerged from the ground.
"Ten thousand years, a full ten thousand years!"
He sighed to the heavens. Ten thousand years ago, he was the strongest ruler of the Immortal Realm, but he was defeated by Yao Xi and forced to flee in disgrace.
He hid here. Now, ten thousand years later, he has reappeared, but he knew his strength was no match for Yao Xi.
However, that didn't matter. Ten thousand years ago, he had contacted a minor world, intending to use its support to defeat Yao Xi.
But unfortunately, before he could send out his coordinates, Yao Xi had detected his intentions.
Then, Yao Xi had chased him so relentlessly that he almost lost his life. That's why he hid here and escaped.
Recently, he had sent out his coordinates, and the reinforcements were almost in sight. Therefore, at this time, he could emerge from seclusion without any scruples.
Because soon, the Immortal Realm would be back in his hands, and then Yao Xi would surely die.
At the same moment, in the void outside the Immortal Realm, a massive void battleship was traversing through space.
On the battleship were countless powerful beings.
"I never thought there would be such a blessed land in such a remote place!"
The leader on the battleship sneered.
If he hadn't received the coordinates, he wouldn't have known that such a wonderful place as the Immortal Realm existed in this universe.
Although the universe is vast, most places are barren. It's truly difficult to find a place suitable for cultivation.
Of course, ten thousand years ago, there were many suitable places for cultivation, but because of the appearance and destruction caused by the bizarre races,
Most places became desolate. Although they were eventually wiped out by the strongest race in the universe, the Zhan Tian clan.
However, the desolate lands infected by the bizarre remained unreformed.
Their Frost clan, although a small race in the vast universe, had great potential for growth.
The only difficulty was the inability to expand. Places suitable for cultivation in the universe were almost all occupied by powerful races.
Their Frost clan could only eke out an existence in the cracks of the vast universe.
Now, with the Immortal Realm as such a blessed land, they could use it as their base camp to develop the Frost clan.
The Frost clan had always had a powerful goal: to become the strongest race in the universe, like the Zhan Tian clan.
However, even the strongest existence, like the Zhan Tian clan, eventually couldn't fight against heaven and disappeared into the river of time.
At this time, he sent the coordinates to the Frost clan's base camp. As a pioneer, his sole purpose was to eliminate any existence in this blessed land that could threaten them.
Afterward, the void battleship landed in the Immortal Realm.
...
In Cang Xuan Divine Continent, Bi Yao was restless. At this moment, Yao Xi appeared.
Bi Yao's expression instantly changed. As expected, what was bound to come had come. She had never given up searching for Yao Xi.
But she could never find Yao Xi's whereabouts, nor could she rescue Yun Fan. She had thought that Yao Xi, after breaking through to the tenth realm, would at least take a thousand years to attack again.
Within these thousand years, she would also have had a chance to break through to the tenth realm, and then the outcome would have been uncertain.
She never expected that only a few days had passed before Yao Xi made a surprise return.
For her, this was an unprecedented challenge.
"Bitch, you never thought I'd be back so soon!"
Yao Xi looked at Bi Yao coldly.
Bi Yao said, "So what if you're back? In the end, you're just my defeated foe!"
Upon hearing this, Yao Xi sneered, "That was when I was weak and you managed to ambush me. Now I'm not only recovered but have also broken through to the tenth realm. Your death is imminent!"
"Tenth realm?"
Bi Yao said coldly, "I'd like to see how strong this tenth realm truly is!"
"I won't disappoint you!"
In an instant, the two women began their fierce battle.
Bi Yao took the initiative, unleashing a full-power attack. But the next moment, she was stunned because her full-power attack couldn't even break through Yao Xi's defense.
"What's going on?"
Bi Yao was astonished. Last time, Yao Xi was beaten by her. She never expected that this time, she couldn't even break through her defense.
Yao Xi sneered, "See? This is the gap between us!"
"Hmph!"
Bi Yao said, "I don't believe I can't shake you one bit!"
"Then I'll let you see what cruelty is!"
In an instant, Yao Xi attacked. With just one blow, she repelled Bi Yao. Only then did Bi Yao realize the vast difference between her and Yao Xi.
Yao Xi sneered, "Today, no matter what, I will tear you into eight pieces!"
It must be said that her hatred for Bi Yao was boundless.
Last time, she had beaten her within an inch of her life. This time, she would not give Bi Yao any chance.
After all, Bi Yao had received Yun Fan's true inheritance and would eventually break through to the tenth realm.
Thus, under her continuous attacks, Bi Yao became increasingly disheveled.
"Pfft!"
Bi Yao spat out a mouthful of blood. The more pathetic she looked, the happier Yao Xi was.
After all, Bi Yao had beaten her like this last time.
Just as Bi Yao was at her weakest and most desperate, she spoke.
"You can kill me, but please spare my man, Yun Fan!"
As soon as she said this, Yao Xi sneered, "Then die in peace! After you die, he will belong to me alone!"
"Alone?"
Bi Yao sneered, "You're thinking too much!"
In her consciousness, the number of women Yun Fan had was enough to form an army.
"Die! I don't want to waste any more words with you!"
At this moment, Yao Xi only wanted to kill Bi Yao.
Everyone watched in despair. They had only recently pledged allegiance to Bi Yao, and now she was about to be defeated.
What were they to do? They didn't think Yao Xi would spare them, as they had been under Yao Xi's rule before.
Just as Bi Yao was waiting to die, a figure appeared and stood in front of her. This figure was Hong Lian.
"Hong Lian, why are you blocking her path?"
Yao Xi asked coldly.
Hong Lian said, "Empress, you know that she is not your true opponent, don't you?"
"Get lost!"
Yao Xi roared angrily.
But Hong Lian did not yield, "Empress, we both have a common man. In a sense, we are sisters. Sisters should not be in a life-and-death struggle!"
"Hmph!"
Yao Xi said coldly, "Then why did she try to kill me last time?"
Upon hearing this, Hong Lian explained, "Empress, she was only avenging Yun Fan. After all, you killed Yun Fan ten thousand years ago. How about we balance the merits and demerits?"
However, Yao Xi said, "Dream on! Ten thousand years ago, Yun Fan deserved it. Besides, I knew he wouldn't actually die! But this bitch tried to kill me. I will never give her any chance!"
Hong Lian still wanted to plead for mercy, but Bi Yao said, "Hong Lian, don't beg her. Let her kill me!"
She was a proud woman and would never live on by begging others. If that were the case, she would rather die.
"Shut up!"
After Hong Lian's reprimand, she said to Yao Xi again, "If Empress wants to kill her, then kill me first!"
As soon as she said this, Yao Xi sneered, "Are you sure?"
"I'm sure!"
Hong Lian replied firmly.
"Then I'll fulfill your wish!"
Just then, as Yao Xi was about to attack Hong Lian, as expected, the seasoned actor Yun Fan arrived and stood in front of the two women. "If you want to kill them, kill me first!"
"Are you looking for death too?"
Yao Xi looked at Yun Fan coldly.
Yun Fan replied righteously, "Yes, I am looking for death. But you must know that if I die, my most primitive essence cannot be unlocked, and you will gain nothing!"
As soon as he said this, Yao Xi said coldly, "Do you dare to threaten me?"
"It's not a threat!"
Yun Fan said, "The misunderstanding has been resolved. We are all family now. There's no need for fighting amongst family, is there?"
"Hmph!"
Yao Xi snorted coldly, "She and I are not family!"
"As if I want to be family with you!"
Bi Yao said coldly.
Alright! At this point, the two women were still bickering. But in Yun Fan's opinion, there was hope.
Because he could see that Yao Xi's killing intent had receded by half. If he persisted a little longer, he might succeed.
However, he was overthinking it, because he didn't need to persist; the unexpected had arrived.
"This is quite lively. How can such a lively scene be without me?"
As soon as he said this, the few people instantly looked towards the source of the voice and discovered that the newcomer was actually an acquaintance.
Yun Fan didn't know, but Yao Xi did, because this person was the former ruler of the Immortal Realm, the Undefeated Immortal Venerable.
"Undefeated Immortal Venerable, you dare to show yourself?"
Yao Xi said coldly.
The Undefeated Immortal Venerable smiled playfully, "Why wouldn't I dare? Yao Xi, don't get complacent. Although I am no match for you, I have found help!"
"Help?"
As the few people hesitated, a massive void battleship, as vast as the sky, approached.
