Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 1221: Chapter 1225: The Giant Emperor’s True Identity

Locked by the gaze of the Giant King, Jiang Fan shuddered.

He felt as if he had sunk into a quagmire, unable to move a finger.

Life was like a flame in the wind, about to be extinguished in the next moment.

Looking at the remaining five Great Yin Sect traitors, Jiang Fan sighed helplessly.

He thought he could kill all the traitors before his death, to at least gain something.

But unfortunately, the Giant Emperor gave him no chance.

The Great Yin Sect Master was full of a fierce smile: "Jiang Fan! You exhausted all your means and strategies."

"In the end, isn’t it a dead end?"

"Take a good look at your surroundings, this is the last time you will look at this world!"

Jiang Fan remained silent.

Silently waiting for death.

In front of the Giant Emperor, any means were redundant.𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

But unexpectedly to him.

His body suddenly relaxed, regaining his power of movement.

This made Jiang Fan slightly stunned, looking at the Giant Emperor in surprise.

Although he didn’t know why, would he let go of the opportunity?

He swiftly struck, beheading all five remaining Great Yin Sect traitors!

Thus, a total of twelve headless corpses floated coldly in the void.

Besides the Great Yin Sect Master, the traitors who surrendered to the Ancient Giants were all slain!

"Ah!!!" The Great Yin Sect Master screamed: "Giant Emperor, why did you let him go?"

"You should have killed him!"

Clearly, the Giant Emperor could turn Jiang Fan into a bloody mist in an instant.

But why let him go and indulge him in killing his last five confidants?

The Giant Emperor’s eyes shifted, looking down at the Great Yin Sect Master, and said lightly:

"Why kill such an excellent junior?"

Huh?

Hmm?

Eh?

All the Human Clan warriors suddenly widened their eyes.

With a face full of doubt.

Did they hear wrong?

What did the Giant Emperor call Jiang Fan?

Junior?

Even Jiang Fan frowned, looking at the Giant Emperor in confusion.

This Giant Emperor not only didn’t kill him but also called him junior?

Could it be...

He suddenly recalled a possibility, gasping in surprise.

The Great Yin Sect Master was also caught off guard, his face stiff, blurting:

"Giant Emperor, what... what are you talking about?"

"This person is our Ancient Giants’ great enemy!"

The Giant Emperor still looked down at him, with indifference in his eyes, but also a tinge of disdain.

"It’s your Ancient Giants."

"Not I."

What... what does this mean?

The Great Yin Sect Master thought of a possibility, his face gradually turning pale.

Could it be that the Giant Emperor before him is actually...

The strong members of the sect also realized a possibility, their eyes flaring with excitement.

The Giant Emperor stepped, with a terrifying flow of energy, arriving in front of Jiang Fan.

He squatted down.

Even a fifty-zhang body squatting down was still like a mountain, making Jiang Fan look up.

Jiang Fan swallowed his saliva, already faintly understanding who this Giant Emperor was.

He cupped his hands respectfully and said: "Senior, could you be our Central Earth Great Sage?"

The Giant Emperor’s eyes showed a hint of smile: "What makes you think so?"

Jiang Fan’s heart pounded wildly, his eyes showing excitement.

The other’s question meant that he was right!

He said respectfully: "Report to Senior, it’s my dullness, I should have guessed earlier."

"Firstly, knowing that a Giant Emperor is still alive, our Central Earth Great Sage did not kill the Giant Emperor, only sealed it on the battlefield."

"Isn’t this raising a tiger to invite disaster?"

"Secondly, with successive awakenings of the Giant Kings creating such big disturbances, the Venerates outside the battlefield have not shown up until now."

"This is unreasonable."

"Thirdly, if you were the Giant Emperor, I couldn’t kill any of these traitors, you would have wiped me out as soon as I made a move."

It’s no wonder Jiang Fan didn’t guess earlier.

After all, this involved the level of a Sage and a Giant Emperor.

How could Jiang Fan dare to speculate on this?

Upon hearing.

The strong members of each sect realized!

They also questioned why the Central Earth Great Sage tolerated the threat of the Giant Emperor’s existence!

Turns out, the Giant Emperor before them was not as they had foreseen!

The Giant Emperor smiled, nodding lightly: "A thousand years ago, I perished together with the Giant Emperor."

"It did not die, and I... also did not die!"

"My physical body was destroyed, but my soul remained."

"To completely eliminate the heavily wounded Giant Emperor, the Remnant Soul entered the Giant Emperor’s body and continued the fight."

Jiang Fan understood.

That made sense.

Inside the Giant Emperor’s body, there’s also the Remnant Soul of the Central Earth Great Sage, so Central Earth couldn’t bear to destroy the Giant Emperor.

For fear of killing this comrade along with it.

But fearing the Giant Emperor’s Remnant Soul would win, to be safe, they sealed the Giant Emperor in this void.

The Central Earth Sage and the Giant Emperor’s Remnant Soul battled for a thousand years.

And now the results have been shown.

It was the Central Earth Sage who won.

He successfully took control of the Giant Emperor’s body.

Equivalent to successful possession!

Jiang Fan admired immensely, what kind of torment was a thousand years of battle?

If at any moment there was a thought of giving up, he would be slain by the Giant Emperor’s Remnant Soul.

He couldn’t imagine how this Sage persevered through sheer will.

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but ask: "Senior, you must be very tired, right?"

The Giant Emperor’s eyes revealed a hint of warmth: "A thousand years, enough to let the vast sea turn into mulberry fields."

"How could one not be tired?"

"But seeing our juniors so excellent, it feels like it was all worthwhile."

He looked at Jiang Fan with solace.

Whether it was his all-out effort to hinder the emergence or his willingness to die to slay traitors.

It made him especially gratified.

Jiang Fan modestly said: "Senior overpraises, I am merely fulfilling the duty of the living beings of Central Earth."

Having said that, he thought about how he used the Sage’s Engraving and Divinity Transformation Strike to prevent the Giant Emperor from breaking free.

Couldn’t help but feel depressed, saying: "Senior, why didn’t you reveal your identity earlier?"

"We juniors were scared terribly."

The Giant Emperor laughed and pointed to the headless corpses all over the ground, saying:

"If not for this, how would we pick out the traitors hidden among us?"

"A thousand years ago, we were deeply harmed by them."

"This time, we cannot make the same mistake again."

Jiang Fan and everyone else were startled.

Only then did they understand.

The so-called battlefield searching for resources was actually a test arranged by the Great Wine Sacrifice.

Before dealing with external threats, one must secure internal stability.

Whether it was a thousand years ago when several Great Sages were betrayed and fell.

Or the recent Three Gods and One Bodhisattva were betrayed, their whereabouts revealed, targeted by the Five-star Giant King.

Before a great battle, clearing potential traitors is necessary!

Now, how many traitors did the Giant Emperor’s statement of "Prosper if you follow me, perish if you oppose me" expose?

"This old guy! Actually set up such a big scheme!"

Jiang Fan cursed inwardly.

Then, he pointed at the corpses of the four Giant Kings, somewhat enlightened:

"So the Hell Beast reviving them was also in the Great Wine Sacrifice’s plans?"

The Great Wine Sacrifice was so insightful, yet the Hell Beast was able to slip into the battlefield right under his nose.

Thinking about it now, it was too unreasonable.

The only possibility is that the Great Wine Sacrifice had already anticipated its goal and let it in.

The Giant Emperor glanced at the four Giant Kings and nodded gently: "The Giant Kings have the ability to regenerate from a drop of blood."

"Their existence, after all, is a potential threat."

"That Hell Beast and the Giant Kings have a sense of each other, it can find hidden Giant Kings."

"However..."

He smiled at Jiang Fan: "Perhaps the Great Wine Sacrifice overthought."

"You alone could eliminate them, no need for me to act at all."

Jiang Fan smiled bitterly: "Senior, I took out my treasured items."

"Had I known you would act, I would have saved them."

Hahaha!

The Giant Emperor laughed: "Now you’re complaining about me."

"Isn’t it just the Divinity Transformation Strike and the Sage’s Engraving?"

"I’ll compensate you then."
