Chapter 762 The Law of Cause and Effect is Inevitable

Retribution never fails.

Several hundred thousand years later.

Ever since Ye Fan, Wu Shi, the Empress, and the others stepped into the Immortal Realm, they had mended various regions and perfected the Laws of heaven and earth, ushering in a flourishing scene of prosperity.

During this time, they unearthed a great deal of information regarding the Chaotic Ancient era, gradually coming to understand that brutal chapter of history.

"The Immortal Realm has enemies; darkness descended upon the myriad heavens. To quell the turmoil, those two journeyed far from home and vanished for Endless ages."

Ye Fan's gaze was deep and somber as he read the events recorded on a stone tablet, finally unveiling a corner of this history steeped in blood and tears.

Several figures stood atop the Dam. Behind them lay Ancient Realms such as the Immortal Realm, while ahead was a sea of Chaos and lingering sword light that had taken its place.

"During the Chaotic Ancient Era, I once followed my brother here. Back then, this place was still a boundless Realm Sea, but now it is gone."

Duan De's heart trembled with fear; as someone left behind from that era, he knew full well just how perilous that sea had been.

Yet now, it had vanished, replaced by boundless Chaos, never to be seen again.

"My brother, Little Rabbit… where are you? I am Cao Yusheng! I have remembered everything, yet you are all gone…"

The fat Daoist roared with reddened eyes, filled with boundless worry in his heart.

In the hundreds of thousands of years since entering the Immortal Realm, he had continuously excavated ancient tombs. Yet across the vast world, not a single old friend could be found.

Even the Immortal Realm had suffered a rupture in its history, having forgotten far too much.

"Severing the ages with a single sword, cleaving the Realm Sea, throwing space-time into disarray, keeping this Realm outside of deduction and away from the flames of war—what tremendous might and tragic heroism!"

Great Emperor Wu Shi sighed softly.

He cultivated the Dao of Time and had stepped into the Immortal King Domain. Moreover, having connected with the Dao of his previous life, Endless, he naturally deduced some truths.

"Vanishing does not mean death. They merely went to another world, waiting for our arrival there."

The Empress spoke with conviction. Ever since her Immortal Ascension, her dusty memories had unlocked, and she firmly believed her elder brother was waiting for her ahead.

"She gave birth!"

"It's a divine infant!"

"An Innate Chaos Sacred Body Dao Embryo! Such incredible Talent—she inherited all the strengths of her parents!"

On this day, the Heavenly Court established by Ye Fan was stirred into a frenzy. The birth of a baby girl drew immense attention, eliciting exclamations from countless people.

For this child's phenomenon was simply too astonishing.

In an instant, essence Qi surged, the Great Dao roared, divine multicolored glow shone brilliantly, and countless worldly rules intertwined.

It was extraordinary; she was truly an immortal embryo, radiant all over, wafting strands of Immortal Qi, born accompanied by phenomena of heaven and earth.

"She inherited two of the most supreme Physiques—she possesses both the resilience of the Sacred Body and the Innate oneness with the Dao, carrying Chaos Qi."

"In the future, once she achieves Great Mastery, she can directly prove her Dao to the Heavenly Heart!"

Great Emperor Wu Shi also arrived. He had been alerted and took quite an interest in the child, looking at her closely again and again.

This baby girl was the child of the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo Ye Yishui and the Chaos Body Ye Xian, destined to be extraordinary.

"Woof! Yishui, quickly let this Emperor take a look at her too," the Big Black Dog said as he leaned in, his eyes wide as bronze bells and full of eagerness.

Back then, to nurture a second Wu Shi, he had poured tremendous effort into Ye Yishui, practically acting as both father and mother.

Even his biological father, Ye Fan, had not shown as much care as the Dog Emperor.

Now that Ye Yishui had an heir, how could the Big Black Dog, as his godfather, not care?

"Yishui, have you named the child yet?" the Black Emperor asked.

Ye Yishui looked gently at his wife, Ye Xian, and blurted out a name: "Ye Qingxian!"

"What? Ye Qingxian?!"

Suddenly hearing this name, Duan De couldn't help but cry out, looking utterly shocked and incredulous.

"Dead fatty, what are you screeching for? You scared the baby!" The Black Emperor glared at him unhappily, baring his teeth.

Duan De ignored him, merely staring at the baby girl over and over, clicking his tongue in marvel.

"Old Duan, what's wrong?" Ye Fan stroked his chin and asked, suspicious of his unusual behavior.

"Nothing," Duan De replied with a mysterious smile, muttering to himself, "Ye Qingxian… so that was how it was…"

"Muttering mysteriously… this dead fatty isn't honest at all. He definitely has a secret he isn't sharing."

The Black Emperor narrowed his big eyes, up to who knew what wicked schemes.

Unfortunately, unlike Duan De, he had not achieved immortality through nine lifetimes in the Mortal World; his memories of that previous lifetime were incomplete and fragmented.

He could no longer clearly remember what he had experienced during the Chaotic Ancient era.

It was not impossible to retrieve them either; once his Realm was high enough and he comprehended the Karma of past and present, he would naturally recall the events of his former lives.

At the same time, sensing the birth of the baby girl, Lin Fan in another space-time cast his gaze over and smiled slyly.

"She's born? I've finally waited for this day, jie-jie-jie…"

A few years passed in the blink of an eye. Ye Qingxian gradually grew up and revealed heaven-defying Talent; naturally close to the Dao, her Comprehension was extraordinary.

Her foundation was truly phenomenal, so strong that many held immense expectations for her—she could potentially become a second Empress!

However, she also gave the entire Heavenly Court headaches. She was by no means trouble-free, being exceedingly lively, active, clever, and mischievous.

"Ahhh—Grandfather, save me!"

Until one day, Little Qingxian screamed and woke with a start from her sleep, drenched in cold sweat, scampering over in a hurry.

Ye Fan caught her and asked lovingly, "Little Qingxian, what happened?"

"Wuuu—Grandfather, you have to avenge me! Someone spanked my… my bottom in my dream! It hurt so, so much…"

Ye Qingxian wept, clutching her bottom as she lodged her complaint.

Hearing this, Ye Fan almost burst out laughing. Assuming his granddaughter had merely had a nightmare, he didn't take it to heart and comforted her with a few words.

"It was just a dream, it's not real."

"But…"

Ye Qingxian was scared; it felt far too real. Especially at the thought of that weird uncle bullying her, she shuddered.

"Don't be afraid. This is the Heavenly Court. With your grandfather here as the Heavenly Emperor, no one dares act presumptuously or bully our little princess."

Ye Fan stroked her head and comforted her gently.

Yet looking at him, Ye Qingxian did not feel reassured at all; instead, she grew increasingly frightened.

Because she realized that the big villain in her dream looked strikingly like her grandfather.

"Grand… father, I'm going to look for Mother."

In the next moment, Ye Qingxian scurried away like a wisp of smoke. Looking at that face made her heart uneasy, even if he appeared very benevolent right now.

Left where he was, Ye Fan looked completely baffled. Was he really that terrifying?

The sunset gave way to the rising moon, and night slowly descended, shrouding the earth in quiet darkness.

Aside from Cultivators, Mortals generally had to follow the Laws of nature, and young children at this age especially fell asleep the moment their heads hit the pillow.

Ye Qingxian was no exception. Having played all day, she finally settled down, falling into a deep sleep in her mother's embrace.

In the dream.

A young-looking man appeared. Coming up behind Ye Qingxian, he lifted her by one hand as if plucking up a little chick.

"Jie-jie-jie… I'm back! Little friend, are you happy? Surprised?"

"Ahhh—no, don't!"

Ye Qingxian shuddered, shaking her head like a rattle-drum in sheer terror. In her eyes, this person was a demon.

Then, clutching her bottom, she pleaded pitifully, "Can you please not hit me there this time?"

"Sure!" Lin Fan nodded and released her.

Yet before Ye Qingxian could breathe a sigh of relief, Lin Fan gave a sly smile, reclined on a bench, and instructed, "Come here and give me a massage."

"Little Fairy, use more strength! Didn't you eat? Be nimble with your hands!"

"What's wrong with you? The fish is burnt to a crisp! Are you trying to poison your master?"

"What kind of look is that? No secretly badmouthing me! A maidservant should act like a maidservant. If it were my younger days, I'd definitely hang you up and beat you!"

Ye Qingxian: Wuuu… someone please save me!
