"You've already made your decision!" Qing Ge said. "If you like that mysterious figure, then when I mention Ye Chen, you wouldn't think of anyone else."

"But, I suggested you accept Ye Chen, and you hesitated, which means..."

Even though Qing Ge didn't finish the sentence, the meaning was obvious; the one Zi Han truly liked was not the mysterious figure, but Ye Chen!

However, the mysterious figure came first, leaving a beautiful impression in Zi Han's heart, which led her to be confused about her true feelings, unable to make a decision.

"Impossible." Zi Han said seriously. "That person is unparalleled in every way, saved my life, I really like him!"

"But, the one you're thinking about is Ye Chen, not that mysterious figure!" Qing Ge said.

"..."

Zi Han fell into deep thought again because she couldn't determine whether she liked one or both of them...

"Zi Han, your whole life has been spent pursuing the great Dao, completely unaware of the mysteries of emotions." Qing Ge said. "That mysterious figure is unparalleled in every way and saved your life, so you're grateful to him, even admire him... but that feeling is not love!"

"But how would you know if I don't?" Zi Han questioned.

Qing Ge said that her entire cultivation path made her unaware of the mysteries of emotions, so did she (Qing Ge) understand?

Like Zi Han, Qing Ge had never unlocked the dust-filled heart... Did she know too much?

"Ahem."

Seeing Zi Han's skeptical eyes, Qing Ge coughed twice, as if quite embarrassed.

"Actually, I once had a Dao companion, but he failed to transcend the boundary, and his soul dispersed into the world..."

Qing Ge was also putting herself out there, in order not to let Zi Han doubt, she straightforwardly tarnished herself.

In fact, Qing Ge never had a Dao companion, but being a furnace, she had always studied these matters, thus knowing more.

However, this was Qing Ge's greatest secret, how could she easily speak it out?

"You had a Dao companion, how come I didn't know?"

Women all have a gossipy heart; hearing Qing Ge reveal her secret, Zi Han was immediately intrigued.

"That was the matter of a previous epoch..."

Qing Ge sighed softly, a look of sadness crossed her face, as if she was unwilling to mention it.

"Moreover, Baihua Palace is filled with female cultivators; some have been wounded in love and come to confide in me... Over time, I've come to understand!"

"Do you know Jue Qing?"

"Before she entered Baihua Palace, she fell in love with a man, but in the end, in despair, she joined Baihua Palace, adopting the name Jue Qing."

To avoid exposure, Qing Ge even mentioned Jue Qing's matter, dispelling Zi Han's doubts.

"But, do I really like Ye Chen?" Zi Han was questioning again.

Because she couldn't forget that mysterious man, how could she like another person?

"Then why would you think of him?" Qing Ge asked.

"I don't know either." That's where Zi Han's conflict lay.

"Emotions cannot be forced. If you don't like Ye Chen, why would you think of him so often?" Qing Ge gently probed, coaxing.

Zi Han fell silent.

"You and Ye Chen like each other, but you can't rush it; you need to understand each other slowly." Qing Ge said.

"What do you mean by that? I never said I would accept him!" Zi Han grew anxious.

"Alright, stop being stubborn, everyone understands..." Qing Ge smiled mysteriously.

"..." Zi Han's heart was in turmoil.

Ye Chen wasn't aware of Qing Ge's prowess; she had already settled things with Zi Han for him.

At the moment, Ye Chen lay on a rock, pondering certain matters.

Ye Chen was trapped in a void battlefield, unable to find a way back; what about his own universe?

"The void battlefield is filled with perils, that even the Sage Venerables are unwilling to delve into; they must have assumed I was dead, right?"

Ye Chen gazed at the grey sky, thoughts expanding boundlessly, pondering the state of his own universe.

Ye Chen was being hunted by a pack of Transcendence Beasts. The Sage Venerable and Yu Jizi must think he's dead. But even if Ye Chen died in the void battlefield, Yu Jizi and the Sage Venerable should come to catch the causalities and confirm the scenario.

However, so much time had passed, and neither Yu Jizi nor the Sage Venerable had come, stirring suspicions in Ye Chen's heart.

"It must be because an otherworld army has arrived, making it impossible for them to spare the focus to get to the bottom of it!"

Being trapped in the void battlefield, constrained by its rules, Ye Chen was entirely unable to deduce the causalities or know the situation of his own universe.

However, Ye Chen's mind was as lively as ever, quickly focusing on the point: the otherworld army had descended.

"The power of the otherworld is immense, but with the Sage Venerable opening the universe center and cultivating countless strong fighters... it doesn't fall short compared to the otherworld."

The universe center is incredibly vast, hiding countless strong fighters, among which are mighty Supremes, even great Transcendences.

Moreover, with the Sage Venerable and Yu Jizi stationed there, even if the otherworld's divine lord descended, it wouldn't necessarily be favorable for them.

"It's a pity that I can't appear in the universe to intercept the otherworld army, it truly is a great regret."

If Ye Chen's cultivation had increased, he should have been a main force against the disaster.

But, being stuck in the void battlefield, unable to participate in the two worlds' war, left him with regret.

Ye Chen wanted to contribute his strength, to protect his woman, protect his child, protect his homeland, protect his world.

"I suddenly disappeared, my life and death are a mystery, I wonder how the Celestial Court is doing, how Su Binglan and the others are faring..."

Ye Chen suddenly thought of the Celestial Court, of Su Binglan and the others, and a sense of worry arose in his heart.

Being at the forefront of the winds and waves, if Ye Chen were stationed in the Celestial Court, there naturally wouldn't be any trouble.

But, Ye Chen was trapped in the void battlefield, leaving the Celestial Court without a leader in a chaotic era, the situation must be dire.

Moreover, Su Binglan and other women were Ye Chen's family; if anyone stirred up trouble, they would inevitably be the first to bear the brunt.

"Hope everything is well." Ye Chen sighed.

Whether it was the invasion from another world, trouble in the Celestial Court, or family disaster, Ye Chen was powerless.

Because he was trapped in the void battlefield, he couldn't even protect himself, let alone look after others.

"I've ascended to great Transcendence; one more step to Heavenly Dao, then I can find the road back!"

Ye Chen's current critical mission was to find the road back, to return to his own universe.

However, to escape the void battlefield, having Heavenly Dao cultivation was a must; although Ye Chen had ascended to great Transcendence, Heavenly Dao was still a long way away.

"Immortal Elixir!" A crimson gleam shone in Ye Chen's eyes. "The Immortal Elixir contains supreme laws, allowing one to comprehend the Heavenly Dao; I must obtain it!"

For Ye Chen to break through the boundary through regular cultivation, it could take a millennia to step into the Heavenly Tao Domain.

However, if he could acquire that Immortal Elixir, Ye Chen could shorten the time, breaking through in the fastest speed.

"Ye Chen!"

However, just as Ye Chen was calculating in his heart, planning to monopolize the Immortal Elixir, a graceful figure appeared out of the blue.

"What are you here for?" Ye Chen said indifferently.

"I'm here to talk to you." Zi Han finally figured it out, wanting to lay everything on the table with Ye Chen.

"What do we have to talk about?" However, Ye Chen's demeanor remained calm, as if he was unwilling to engage in conversation.
