Chapter 2355 Ye Fan''s Return
On the summit of Mount Yunding, the grand mansion still stood tall and unwavering. The lush trees
and vibrant flowers had flourished, creating a dense canopy that adorned the surroundings.
During the chaotic period of the Chu Sect''s upheaval, Chu Yuan, apanied by the formidable
masters of the Chu Sect, had besieged Mount Yunding, nearly reducing it to ruins.
After the fierce battle, the mountain was left in ruins.
However, with the passage of several years, the scars of war had all but disappeared.
Mount Yunding had undergone a transformation, presenting apletely new appearance.
The verdant hills retained their timeless beauty, basking in the warm hues of countless sunsets.
Ultimately, the oues of sess or failure seemed insignificant in the grand scheme of things.
Truly, what significance did Ye Fan''s triumph from years ago hold?
It amounted to nothing more than a brief respite, a few years of teetering on the edge of survival.
While narrowly evading one catastrophe, they were inexorably hurtling toward destruction in the
face of the looming next cmity.
Ye Fan often found himself contemting his existence, a ceaseless cycle of striving, cultivating,
and battling.
Driven by vengeance against Chu Yuan and the desire to dismantle the Chu Sect, his struggles
extended to fierce confrontations with Symborsus and the ongoing challenges posed by the
Universe Tree.
He pondered that once he fulfilled all his duties, he could finally dedicate himself entirely to his
family.
s, as one wave subsided, another swiftly emerged.
Years ago, Ye Fan had made a promise to his wife—amitment to apany her to witness the
Northern Lights, to marvel at mountains, rivers,kes, and seas. Yet, as of now, that promise
remained unfulfilled.
It seemed increasingly likely that it might nevere to pass because, in a few short years, the
very existence of this world could be in jeopardy.
As the saying goes, "a familiar scene may stir up one''s past memories and feelings."
Ye Fan found himself overwhelmed with myriad emotions, particrly as he pushed open the grand
doors of the mansion once more, greeted by a scene that stirred indescribable emotions within him.
When the mansion underwent renovations years ago, Ye Fan specifically instructed Li Er to
preserve the original arrangement of disys and decorations.
Consequently, as he stepped back into the mansion, the surroundings mirrored the time when he
shared it with Qiu Mucheng.
In a trance, Ye Fan felt as though he could vividly recall every moment spent with Qiu Mucheng
here.
Unfortunately, many years had passed, everything had undergone profound changes, and while
objects remained, people did not.
"Who is it?"
"Who dares to intrude upon the Mount Yunding Vi?"
"Which insolent trespasser dares to enter Mr. Chu''s former residence?"
A sudden burst of angry voices echoed from outside.
Shortly after, Li Er, apanied by several formidable masters, burst into the mansion.
Uponying eyes on Ye Fan, Li Er felt his body stiffen. "M-Mr. Chu? You''ve... returned?"
Li Er found it difficult to believe what he was seeing. He rubbed his eyes vigorously, and only after
confirming that it was indeed Ye Fan, did he dare to speak, his voice trembling.
After all, hisst encounter with Ye Fan urred nearly four to five years ago.
Inparison to the past, it was evident that Li Er had aged somewhat. However, Ye Fan remained
unchanged, as if time had left no mark on him.
Overwhelmed by emotions, Li Er immediately knelt down.
As the threat of doomsday loomed over everyone, a profound sense of dread gripped them, as if
they stood on the precipice of an abyss.
Yet, in the presence of the man before him, the fear gripping Li Er''s heart simply dissipated.
Over the years, they had faced numerous trials with Ye Fan.
History and experience had repeatedly shown that as long as Chu Tianfan was present, he could
shatter any shackles and break free from any cage.
The deep-seated sense of security was beyond anyone else''s capability. It was an emotion known
as the feeling one gets after encountering Ye Fan.
At that moment, Li Er was on the brink of tears.
"Why are you crying? You''re almost fifty years old. The sun, moon, mountains, and rivers are all still
intact, aren''t they? And I''m still alive, aren''t I?" Ye Fan remarked.
In the presence of an old friend, an indescribable familiarity surged within Ye Fan, leading him to
engage in yful banter with Li Er.
Amidst tears and sniffles, Li Er expressed his emotions to Ye Fan, saying, "Mr. Chu, you''ve been
gone for such a long time. I had almost given up hope of your return."
"True. My solitary training this timested quite a while," Ye Fan responded.
"Mr. Chu, now that you''re back, do we still need to relocate? Can you deal with the Universe Tree?"
Li Er asked.
Throughout the years in Ye Fan''s absence, Li Er faithfully adhered to the instructions Ye Fan had
given him before he departed.
Consequently, over the past four to five years, Li Er had been steadily advancing the migration
mission ording to Ye Fan''s directives.
At present, most of Ye Fan''s rtives and friends had relocated outside the Folo Pce in India
and would be able to enter the secret realm at any moment.
Despite this progress, Li Er couldn''t shake the desire to stay on Earth.
Regardless of how magnificent foreignndscapes might be, they could never surpass the
significance of one''s hometown.
The profound attachment to one''s homnd, ingrained in the bones of the Chinese people,
resonated deeply with Li Er. Unfortunately, he had yet to receive the answer he hoped for.

"Let''s proceed with the n. In the battle against the Universe Tree, humanity still has no chance of
victory," Ye Fan stated, his words carrying considerable weight.
Despite spending numerous years in solitary training beneath the Universe Tree and enhancing his
command over Celestial Cloud, the limitations preventing him from breaking through to the god
realm remained insurmountable.
Duanmu Wan''er had previously asserted that, without entering the god realm, he stood no chance
against the Universe Tree.
Furthermore, even attaining god realm status offered no certainty of defeating the formidable
Universe Tree.
Upon hearing this, Li Er experienced a sudden wave of disappointment. With Ye Fan''s directive, he
had no choice but to persist with the project.
"However, Mr. Chu, it seems that some of your rtives and friends are reluctant to leave. No
matter how much I pleaded, they were unwilling to cooperate," Li Er conveyed.
"You mean, the people at the Chu residence? Leave that to me," Ye Fan assured.
When he left, Tang Yun and Chu Lin were still at the old house. Knowing Tang Yun''s temperament,
unless Ye Fan intervened personally, there was no way Li Er could have persuaded her.
Li Er recounted the situation with a bitter smile. "Actually, it''s your aunt''s family who is involved.
Initially, your aunt and uncle had already moved to India. However, their daughter, Jiang Yuqing,
consistently refused to cooperate. She was determined to stay in China, in Yanjing. She even
used us of being escapists, cowards, and faint-hearted. Your aunt''s family had to return from
India to China to take care of their daughter."
"Oh? Jiang Yuqing? Aunt Xn''s daughter?" Ye Fan vaguely remembered the name, but not much
else.
His childhood at his maternal grandfather''s house had kept him isted from his cousins.
During their youth, distinguished youngdies like Ye Yuyan and Jiang Yuqing paid little attention to
Ye Fan.
Ye Yuyan, being Ye Tian''s daughter, had more frequent encounters with Ye Fan. They became well-
acquainted when sheter joined the Green Dragon Force.
On the other hand, Ye Fan rarely crossed paths with Jiang Yuqing.
Despite theck of familiarity, they were rtives from his mother''s side, and Ye Fan couldn''t simply
ignore them.
"Is she in Yanjing? I''ll personally handle it. I''ll bring her to India. Meanwhile, get your friends and
family ready to go. My main reason for returning this time is to guide all of you into the secret realm.
We''re running out of time," Ye Fan spoke urgently.
"Alright, Mr. Chu. I''ll inform Chen Ao and the others to head to India as soon as possible and
relocate their entire ns," Li Er respectfully responded before promptly attending to the task.
Ye Fan lingered for a moment at Mount Yunding Vi, leaving behind a note that read: "Mucheng, if
you can read this, please hurry to the Folo Pce in India!"
Afterpleting the necessary arrangements, Ye Fan stood up and left.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Zhang Nanhai tirelessly searched for Ye Fan''s whereabouts. After an
unsessful search, he eventually returned to Yanjing.
"Nanhai, where have you been?" Every day, Jiang Yuqing woulde to Mount Yan in search of
Zhang Nanhai. That day, she happened to encounter him.
"I went to look for your cousin, but I couldn''t find him. Do you happen to know where he is, Yuqing?
If you do, please tell me. I want to see him!" Zhang Nanhai eximed urgently.
"My cousin? Are you referring to Ye Fan?" Jiang Yuqing was slightly surprised.
