Ye Guan was stunned.
Zhou Fan's expression remained calm as she explained, "I mean having a child."
Ye Guan immediately understood. He grabbed Zhou Fan's hand and gently asked, "Is it because of the power struggles within the Great Zhou?"
Zhou Fan lowered her head slightly and remained silent.
Sighing, Ye Guan said, "I know that you have many responsibilities as the heir of the Great Zhou. I get it, but remember just one thing—never force yourself to do something you don't want to do. Do you understand?"
Zhou Fan's hands trembled. She leaned against Ye Guan's chest and hugged him wordlessly.
Ye Guan wrapped his arms around Zhou Fan's slender waist. Zhou Fan's soft waist and the fact that they were so close to each other made Ye Guan's heart skip a beat. A certain part of his body reacted involuntarily.
Sensing something poking her, Zhou Fan's face turned red. She looked up and glared at Ye Guan.
Ye Guan chuckled nervously.
"Do you want to do it?" asked Zhou Fan in a voice that sounded more like a mosquito's droning.
Adrenaline instantly coursed through Ye Guan at the remark, and a conflagration erupted within him, rushing straight to his "head."
However, he forcibly suppressed his desire and calmed down.
Zhou Fan was still staring at Ye Guan.
Ye Guan smiled slightly and said, "Let's save that after our marriage"
“Why?"
"I just want you to know that I'm not with you because of your body. I respect you, so we should take this slow."
Zhou Fan was taken aback, and then she buried her head into Ye Guan's chest, saying, "You really know how to sweet talk. I'm sure you've already deceived many girls."
"What do you—" Ye Guan started.
"Be honest," Zhou Fan interrupted, "how many girls have you deceived so far?"
Ye Guan kissed Zhou Fan's head and was about to answer her when the space ahead of them trembled.
A shadowy figure emerged from the spacetime rift.
Zhou Fan quickly pushed Ye Guan away, and her expression instantly became icy.
The shadowy figure bowed deeply to Zhou Fan and said, "Your Highness."
"Speak,” said Zhou Fan.
The shadowy figure opened his palm, and a white piece of paper floated toward the two.
Ye Guan and Zhou Fan frowned upon reading the text written on the paper.
The Evil Dao Alliance had issued a bounty with a whopping one hundred Eternal Crystals in exchange for Ye Guan's head.
"Hahaha," Ye Guan chuckled, saying, "The Evil Dao Alliance is really generous... to think they'll offer a hundred Eternal Crystals for my head."
The ring that his aunt had given to him only contained thirty Eternal Crystals, and he knew how precious they were. They were particularly precious for Path Creation Realm experts.
He hadn't even used them, as he found it wasteful. Yi Nian had many Eternal Crystals at her disposal, but he would never spend her Eternal Crystal, as it would be immoral of him to do so. He could fool others but not his own people.
"it is such a tempting offer," Zhou Fan said in a serious tone, "Many will find it hard to refuse."
"Can the Evil Dao Alliance really come up with so many Eternal Crystals?" asked Ye Guan.
Zhou Fan was slightly taken aback. "Little Guan, are you suggesting that they are doing this to hassle us?"
The bolts of lightning inside the pool became violent, inundating him.
Ye Guan's expression remained unchanged. This was child's play compared to the True Universe's tribulation lightning.
Ye Guan opened his palm, revealing two Eternal Crystals. He glanced at them briefly before swallowing them.
Boom!
A powerful energy erupted from within him. The Eternal Power within the Eternal Crystals pervaded Ye Guan, and he could feel his fleshly body transforming along with his three bloodlines.
A myriad of lightning bolts struck Ye Guan once more, and they kept coming as if they seriously wanted to reduce him into mere ashes.
Boom!
Zhou Fan could only watch anxiously outside the pool, and she relaxed only when she saw that Ye Guan's fleshly body was strong enough to withstand the lightning.
Swoosh!
A shadowy figure suddenly appeared behind Zhou Fan.
The shadowy figure bowed deeply and said, "Your Highness, powerful, inscrutable auras have appeared in the starry sky above the Great Zhou."
Zhou Fan frowned and called out, "Uncle Awen."
An old man in court robes appeared and bowed slightly to Zhou Fan.
"Uncle Awen, take our Tian Ce Divine Guards with you and protect this place," Zhou Fan instructed.
“Understood."
Zhou Fan glanced at Ye Guan in the distance before disappearing.

Two men and a lady were looking down at the Great Zhou Imperial City.
The leader of the group was a man in luxurious robes, and a faint smile was tugging at his lips.
A middle-aged man in black robes was standing next to him. The middle-aged man was holding a jet-black spear with a blood-red tip.
Meanwhile, the one and only woman in the group was holding a sheathed sword in her left hand. She was clad entirely in white, and her long hair draped over her shoulders; her expression was extremely cold.
The man in luxurious robes looked down at the Great Zhou Imperial City and said, "I met the Great Zhou's founding ancestor once. He was a remarkable individual."
The middle-aged man in black robes said, "Ye Guan is in the Great Zhou."
"I know." The man in luxurious robes nodded.
Tightening his grip on his spear, the middle-aged man in black robes asked, "Should we kill him?"
They were from the Ascension World, and they had come here to kill Ye Guan. A hundred Eternal Crystals was just too tempting of an offer to resist.
"Kill who?"
"Ye Guan," replied the middle-aged man in black robes.
The man in luxurious robes shook his head.
"Why not?" asked the man in black robes.
The man in luxurious robes replied, "Why would the Evil Dao Alliance offer a hundred Eternal Crystals for his head instead of killing him themselves?"
The middle-aged man in black robes frowned.
The man in luxurious robes looked at the Great Zhou Imperial City down below and laughed. "It's a trap. The Evil Dao Alliance wants to use us as pawns. Do they really think that we have no brain or something?"
