Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 1060: Chapter 1060: The Auspicious Draw

Wei Wuji was taken aback.

In the next moment, a boundless Thunder Sword slashed down from the heavens.

The Vast Sea above the East Sea split apart with a crash, revealing the East Sea Palace at the seabed.

A single sword that severed the Vast Sea!

Yizhu Demon Emperor’s beautiful eyes shimmered with brilliance.

At this moment, Jiang Fan was much stronger than during his tribulation.

The three siblings of the Second Crown Prince were also utterly shocked.

Wei Wuji inhaled sharply, his entire body frozen, not daring to move.

If this sword had fallen upon him.

He would have been instantly obliterated.

Jiang Fan landed beside him and said indifferently:

"You really seemed to have loved Yizhu Demon Emperor."

"In the end, this is all?"

Wei Wuji’s entire body tensed, and even breathing became difficult.

He felt the boundless pressure only a Five-Aperture Nascent Soul could exert from Jiang Fan.

Swallowing slightly, he forced himself to remain calm and said,

"The East Sea is a subordinate power of the Myriad Phenomena Void Realm; it’s not your Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion’s place to interfere, is it?"

Jiang Fan casually conjured a Thunder Sword, placing it by his neck.

"And what if I insist?"

"Even the Sanqing Mountain Dao Leader, I’ve slain without hesitation."

"As for you, I won’t even blink!"

What?

Not only was Wei Wuji frightened, even Yizhu Demon Emperor gasped!

The Sanqing Mountain Dao Leader, a Seven Orifice Nascent Soul power?

Jiang Fan killed him?

Wei Wuji swallowed hard, his body trembling uncontrollably.

Dare not to argue anymore, he quickly bowed and said, "Senior Jiang, I was just following orders."

Jiang Fan snorted, "Scram!"

"Don’t set foot in the East Sea again!"

Wei Wuji didn’t dare utter another word, hastily bowing and fleeing the scene.

Jiang Fan sheathed the Thunder Sword.

Looking at Yizhu Demon Emperor, he showed a hint of gentleness:

"Sister Yizhu, you’ve had it tough."

"The Ancient Giant battle hasn’t come, yet you’ve become the victim already."

Yizhu Demon Emperor regained her composure and quickly bowed, "Thank you, Senior Jiang."

She signaled to the Second Crown Prince and the others.

They finally snapped out of their daze and rushed to bow.

"Greetings, Senior Jiang."

Jiang Fan looked at the Second Crown Prince, Third Princess, and the never-before-seen Eldest Princess Meng Chou.

Indeed, the Eldest Princess and Yizhu Demon Emperor were carved from the same mold.

Standing together, no one could tell them apart.

"Don’t call me senior, it’s too distant."

Jiang Fan chuckled softly.

Yizhu Demon Emperor showed a complex expression and said,

"Young Master Jiang, why have you come to the East Sea?"

The little guy back then has now become a martial giant capable of killing Dao leaders.

Her heart was filled with myriad emotions.

Jiang Fan looked at the Second Crown Prince and said, "I came to deal with that weakened Ancient Giant."

"Second Crown Prince, could you provide the precise location?"

Meng Cheng said cautiously, "Uncle Jiang, no need to be modest."

He handed over a Jade Scroll to Jiang Fan and said, "The location is within."

He paused, his eyes shifting, and asked, "Would you like my mother to accompany you?"

He still hadn’t given up.

Still wishing to match Jiang Fan with his mother.

Jiang Fan looked towards the Mother Origin Hall and said, "Your mother can’t leave."

"I’ll go with my friends."

With that, he looked towards Yizhu Demon Emperor with some concern and said,

"Sister Yizhu, what do you plan to do with this Mother Origin Cauldron?"

"With calamity approaching, Myriad Phenomena Void Realm isn’t the only one eyeing it."

Sects with sound judgment wouldn’t harm countless Sea Demon Clan members for a cauldron.

But if even one like the Myriad Phenomena Void Realm desires it, the Mother Origin Cauldron might not be protected.

The reputation of Jiang Fan for killing the Sanqing Mountain Dao Leader can only momentarily deter the malicious.

It cannot last.

Yizhu Demon Emperor spoke bitterly,

"In a world where the weak are prey to the strong, if they insist on taking it, I can only bury myself with the sea."

The ones seizing it weren’t others.

They were her former backers, the Myriad Phenomena Void Realm.

She had nowhere to seek help.

Jiang Fan showed a hint of compassion and said,

"Sister Yizhu, don’t act impulsively."

"If there’s truly no choice, let them take it."

"Bring the Sea Demon Clan members you can, come to Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion. I’ll protect you, at least leave some fire of hope for the East Sea."

Yizhu Demon Emperor gratefully said, "Thank you, Young Master Jiang."

Jiang Fan cupped his hands and said, "Then I’ll take my leave."

"Sister Yizhu, take care."

Yizhu Demon Emperor watched Jiang Fan leave, unable to take back her gaze for a long time.

Her heart filled with countless thoughts.

The Second Crown Prince sighed deeply, "It’s been so little time since we last met, and Uncle Jiang is already a revered senior we must look up to."

Then he habitually complained,

"Don’t listen to your son, suffer right in front of you."

"If mother had listened to my suggestion and chosen Uncle Jiang back then, wouldn’t it have been good?"

"Now, we’ve already lost the chance to reach such high status."

He finished speaking and retreated back.

For every time he said this in the past, he’d receive a scolding at the least, or a beating at the worst.

But this time, Yizhu Demon Emperor didn’t blame him.

Watching Jiang Fan soaring into the sky like a true dragon, unstoppable.

To say she had no hint of regret would be a lie.

Touching her face, she dismissed the thought and said,

"Go back twenty years, I might have given it a try."

"Now, let it be."

"Meeting him in this life is already a great fortune."

Three two-hour periods later.

At the border of the East Sea and South Sea.

The Six-Path Master showed a trace of complexity,

"The look in that Female Demon Emperor’s eyes when you left was quite profound."

Jiang Fan expressionlessly said, "Don’t think too much, I only have respect for her."

The Six-Path Master nodded, "That’s good."

"Mixed-race unions would surely incur the wrath of heaven, leading to unfavorable causes and effects."

Hmm?

Is there such a saying?

Then how is it that nothing has happened between him and Fairy Yun Shang?

Or does this cause and effect occur with the offspring?

Remembering the Six-Path Master’s daughter’s chronic illness, he understood.

A trace of worry passed through his mind.

If he and Fairy Yun Shang were to have offspring, would they be like the Six-Path Master’s daughter?

While pondering this.

A subtle Yin Qi mixed with the seawater drifted in.

"People from the Great Yin Sect?"

Jiang Fan became alert.

But soon after, Jiang Fan perceived strands of Buddha Light.

As well as various unique forces from other sects.

The Six-Path Master also became vigilant, squinting his old eyes slightly, "Ahead is where the Ancient Giant resides, right?"

"Did that Second Crown Prince disclose the information?"

"Why have so many sects come?"

Jiang Fan looked surprised and said, "He wouldn’t."

The Second Crown Prince had always hoped to use this clue to match him with Yizhu Demon Emperor.

Why would he spread the news?

They must have obtained the information from other sources.

"Let’s go see for ourselves."

He and the Six-Path Master flickered and arrived.

Soon they saw a massive sunken pit.

Inside was pitch black, too deep to see the bottom.

Scattered around were some bones of Sea Demon Clan creatures.

These were likely the remains devoured by the Ancient Giant during the Crown Prince’s exploration of this place.

Surrounding the pit, the area’s strong individuals gathered.

No one dared to explore below.

"Jiang Fan?"

A surprised voice called out.

Jiang Fan looked up and his mouth twitched, "You’re everywhere!"

The one calling him wasn’t anyone else but the Jiangshan First-class Building Owner.

Indeed, wherever there’s excitement in the Taicang State, he’s there.

Jiang Fan didn’t get to greet him.

A cold and sinister shout came through, "Jiang Fan? The one from Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion?"

"Where is our Dao Leader?"

Following the voice,

a middle-aged man in a Daoist robe, with a sinister gaze, coldly stared.

His cultivation had reached the Seven Orifice Nascent Soul.

Sanqing Mountain’s Seven Orifice Nascent Soul?

Jiang Fan turned vigilant.

But what truly made him wary was.

Beside him were two elderly figures bound entirely in chains, exuding overbearing strength, both at the Eight Orifice Nascent Soul, teetering on the brink of madness!
