Ye Fan still did not choose to stay on Earth; he opted to return to the Pangu Secret Realm.
Even though Lu Xiaoman made him feel somewhat familiar, this wasn't his reason to stay on Earth. Moreover, he discovered that Li Zhaojun and Lu Xiaoman indeed had things they needed to do, so he preferred not to disturb them and simply returned to the Pangu Secret Realm to plan further.
Upon reaching the Pangu Secret Realm, Sang Yuan was already waiting for Ye Fan in the council hall. Sang Yuan said, "Sir, now the people from the seven major sects, except those from the Tianxuan Sect, have all arrived in Sky City. Should you perhaps meet the sect leaders first?"
"Who are these people?" Ye Fan looked at Xi He, hoping for an explanation.
Ye Fan could tell that Sang Yuan had more hidden matters in mind than Xi He, so Ye Fan didn't want Sang Yuan to answer his questions. He harbored a significant mistrust toward Sang Yuan.
