Chapter 1920: Chapter 1916: Mo Xiaoyan Unconscious
Although Ye Fan didn’t kill Nuwa, he did learn some origins of the calamity from her, and after rescuing Mo Xiaoyan, Ye Fan felt his journey was worthwhile.
His main purpose was to save Mo Xiaoyan, and now that Mo Xiaoyan safely returned to his side, aside from some mental damage, she had not undergone any physical torture. She was safely back by Ye Fan’s side without any major issues.
Ye Fan also realized he didn’t have the capability to kill Nuwa, so there was no need for him to stay. The information he got from meeting Nuwa didn’t seem to be of much value to him.
Regarding the calamity, he already knew beforehand, and actually didn’t need Nuwa to remind him. He knew the calamity might be a punishment from the upper-level creator to those who practice cultivation. As for whether he had the ability to save the world from calamity, he himself was uncertain.
As Ye Fan was leaving, Nuwa also said, "Remember, your power, coupled with the trait of the Chosen One, can truly unleash your strength. This Chosen One might be right by your side... you can discover with your own eyes, I won’t remind you more."
But Ye Fan didn’t bother listening to Nuwa’s "pep talk". He immediately returned to Earth and brought Mo Xiaoyan to Lu Xiaoman.
"Ye Fan? Is this Xiaoyan?" Lu Xiaoman hurried to welcome him upon feeling Ye Fan’s return, then she saw her sister in Ye Fan’s arms. She checked to find her sister’s eyes closed, looking somewhat in pain, but otherwise no special responses.
Lu Xiaoman didn’t question why Ye Fan was holding Mo Xiaoyan because she had previously promised that as long as Ye Fan could rescue Mo Xiaoyan, she could even accept a relationship between Ye Fan and Mo Xiaoyan.
"Ye Fan, what happened to Xiaoyan?" Lu Xiaoman’s concern for her sister was evident. She stroked her sister’s face gently, her eyes almost welling up with tears.
Mo Xiaoyan showed no signs of waking up, and Ye Fan didn’t intend to explain further to Lu Xiaoman. Ye Fan said, "What she went through, I won’t say more. In fact, I’m not clear on how she suffered. But fortunately, she’s physically okay, though her mental state might be severely damaged and needs careful recovery."
"Alright." Lu Xiaoman looked nervously at Ye Fan and said, "Then, Ye Fan, what should we do now? I only have this one sister, please think of a way to help her."
Ye Fan nodded and said, "To help her now is actually to help her regain her consciousness. I don’t know if I have that ability, but we have to try. Xiaoman, I need to take her inside first."
"Okay, do you need me to go with you?" Lu Xiaoman was very eager to know her sister’s situation but feared Ye Fan’s method of helping Mo Xiaoyan might be beyond her acceptance. So, she asked in fear and hesitation.
Ye Fan said, "Do you think I’m going to do something to Xiaoyan? Actually, I’m just using my elemental power to try to awaken her. I don’t know how certain I am, you can come in with me, there’s nothing to avoid."
Upon hearing this, Lu Xiaoman felt relieved. She followed Ye Fan into the room, seeing Ye Fan had already laid Mo Xiaoyan flat on the carpet, she curiously asked, "Ye Fan, is there anything you need me to do? Just say the word, I won’t hesitate to do everything to awaken Xiaoyan."
Ye Fan looked at Lu Xiaoman with encouraging eyes and said, "Xiaoman, don’t worry, this has little to do with you. You just need to watch from the side, don’t disturb me. When I use elemental power, a powerful force will gather around. If you accidentally enter my attack range, it could harm you."
"Oh. I understand, Ye Fan, I won’t disturb you, you can start." Lu Xiaoman displayed her understanding of Ye Fan, refraining from bothering him. She knew Ye Fan was not playing favorites, he was just trying to save Mo Xiaoyan.
The two people in front of her were already her closest — one her biological sister, the other her husband. They might live together in the future; she couldn’t allow either to come to harm.
...
...
Ye Fan tried many things and spent more than an hour, yet failed to awaken Mo Xiaoyan.
At this point, Ye Fan had to stop. He looked at Mo Xiaoyan with a hint of guilt in his eyes, feeling slightly sorry for the trust the sisters, Lu Xiaoman and Mo Xiaoyan, placed in him.
"Ye Fan, can you save Xiaoyan or not? If it’s really hard, you can take a break, don’t push yourself. Xiaoyan might recover on her own." Lu Xiaoman said with concern.
Ye Fan said, "Perhaps you’ve noticed, Xiaoyan’s body underwent serious damage, maybe the result of a Spiritual Attack, I want to help her, but not everything can be resolved just because I want to. I can’t act like the one who harmed her. If I do something wrong, it might give her spiritual power a secondary blow, which is not what I wish to see."
"I understand." Lu Xiaoman couldn’t help but wipe her tears. Even though she was strong, seeing Ye Fan so powerless, and thinking about her sister’s suffering made her heartache.
Ye Fan frowned and said, "I finally understand why Nuwa was so gracious this time, handing people directly to me, perhaps she realized I couldn’t awaken Xiaoyan. The mental damage Xiaoyan suffered exceeded the attack limit of Chang Yi, Nuwa must have done this. And she said Xiaoyan was not the Chosen One, so what was her purpose?"
Lu Xiaoman looked at Ye Fan with a puzzled face and said, "Ye Fan, what are you talking about? I don’t understand at all. Does it relate to Xiaoyan’s injury? Is it something Nuwa did?"
"Xiaoman, you need to know, now all the girls around me have encountered great danger, including you. Because all signs seem to indicate that I’m not the Chosen One, this Chosen person involves saving the world from calamity, the Chosen One is beside me, it might be Xiaoyan, you, or someone else. Now everyone wants to know who the Chosen One is, they’d pose a great threat to your safety," Ye Fan said.
Lu Xiaoman said firmly, "Ye Fan, as long as you’re here, I fear nothing. Don’t worry, I can certainly hold on!"
