Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 2051: Chapter 2095: Human Cocoon

Jiang Fan chuckled, "Do you want to strip me naked?"

"Why not!" Linglong’s eyes shone as she blurted out almost involuntarily.

Realizing what she’d said, she smiled awkwardly, "Ahem, I must have the quasi-immortal technique, but the rest, you can choose a few to give me."

"If it’s less, I won’t mind; if it’s more, I’ll gladly accept."

Jiang Fan snorted coldly, "Don’t think about anything else."

"Just the quasi-immortal technique, take it or leave it!"

Other things, once lost, are truly gone.

Only the Unity Ancestor Scripture, if she wants it, just let her have it. It’s useless to her if she’s not of the Ancestor Dao anyway.

Linglong’s eyes darted around, and she reluctantly said, "Alright."

Jiang Fan said no more, placing his finger on his brow, imprinted the memory of the Unity Ancestor Scripture, condensed it into a speck of light, and sent it flying into the void.

Linglong excitedly caught it with glee, spread her wings, and decisively made her escape.

Jiang Fan’s face turned cold, "Are you planning to renege on the deal?"

Linglong turned her head with a cold smirk, "Silly boy, let me teach you a lesson."

"The prettier a woman is, the less you should trust her!"

"This soul is quite unique. I’ll take it back for some study first."

Jiang Fan laughed, "I knew you, deceitful woman, wouldn’t keep your word."

"Just so happens, I didn’t plan on letting you off easy either."

He took out the Tai Chu Prison Sky Gourd, shook it vigorously, and shouted into the void:

"If you don’t want your son to die, then get out here!"

The void remained silent.

Jiang Fan shook it again with force, then was about to shake it a third time.

A reproachful shout, almost at arm’s length, thundered forth.

"Stop!"

Just outside of the Central Earth Realm, a wisp of white mist rose, forming a cloud.

In the vast cloud, the shadow of a gigantic insect with many legs flickered.

It was the Great Dream Demon Venerable from the Ancient Demon Realm!

Jiang Fan said coldly, "I knew you’d been following me all along!"

During the Southern Heavenly Realm battle, the Great Dream Demon Venerable was ambushed by Tian Ge’s Eye of Hell and faced the Nine Prison Asura Emperor, choosing to abandon his promise to protect Jiang Fan and flee.

Yet, having failed to save his son, Flowing Edge Wilderness, the Great Dream Demon Venerable certainly wouldn’t be at ease.

Thus, Jiang Fan had long suspected that the Great Dream Demon Venerable was most likely tracking him across realms, waiting to strike when Jiang Fan was in extremely unfavorable circumstances to seize the Tai Chu Prison Sky Gourd.

Looking at the Great Dream Demon Venerable just outside the realm, Jiang Fan stood silently alert.

Luckily, during the three days when the Southern Heavenly Realm’s gateway was wide open, the Great Dream Demon Venerable hesitated and dared not intrude.

Otherwise, if he sprang a surprise attack, just thinking about the consequences would make one’s cold sweat drench them.

The Great Dream Demon Venerable’s blood-red eyes were filled with ferocity, "Release my son!"

Jiang Fan, with a composed face, said, "You broke your promise, leaving me in a desperate situation, and stood by amused while I was hunted by the East Emperor Great Angel."

"And now you want me to release your son for nothing?"

"Dream on!"

The Great Dream Demon Venerable took a deep breath, suppressing his inner rage, and said in a deep voice, "What do you want?"

Jiang Fan pointed remotely at Linglong, who hovered at a distance watching the battle:

"Capture this woman for me!"

Linglong’s expression changed.

When the Great Dream Demon Venerable appeared, she was greatly apprehensive, after all, he was a top-level Great Demon of the Ancient Demon Realm.

In terms of realm, he was on the same level as the invincible powers of the Nine-winged Great Angels like the East Emperor and West Empress.

How could she provoke him?

What she didn’t expect was that Jiang Fan could actually threaten him!

"Silly boy, you found an outsider to bully me, you’re something else!"

"Don’t forget, I still hold this soul body."

She also attempted to threaten Jiang Fan.

But, was Jiang Fan someone who succumbed to threats?

He said, "Great Dream Demon Venerable, if this woman kills that soul, execute her, and bring her head to exchange for your son!"

"If the soul isn’t dead, then capture her alive!"

He had been thoroughly angered by Linglong.

Letting this woman go, she just had to create a whole mess.

Then she won’t be leaving!

Linglong’s beautiful eyes shrank, she quickly flapped her eight pairs of wings, transforming into a fast-moving shadow and vanishing.

The Great Dream Demon Venerable smiled broadly, "Deal!"

If the opponent was a Nine-winged Great Angel, he would indeed weigh the pros and cons, but if it’s just an Eight-winged, then that’s easy!

This was even easier than protecting Jiang Fan alive.

The white mist suddenly dispersed, along with the Great Dream Demon Venerable’s shadow vanishing.

In a moment.

Waves of law-driven terror rolled in from the depths of the void, slamming against the world barrier of Central Earth, creating black fractures.

The battle lasted for a full cup of tea before it subsided.

A mass of white cloud sea surged forward.

Compared to when it left, the white mist was a bit thinner, and the Great Dream Demon Venerable’s dense legs were also broken in some areas.

Clearly, the fight wasn’t easy.

The Great Dream Demon Venerable’s bloodshot eyes carried a trace of anger, "Why didn’t you tell me this woman could temporarily break through to nine wings?"

Jiang Fan coughed awkwardly, "How was I supposed to know she was that powerful?"

He said so, though in his heart he was a bit astonished.

Linglong’s temporary transformation into a nine-winged Great Angel was quite something.

She could actually hold out for a cup of tea against a true Three Calamities Realm Great Demon.

The reason for her defeat, presumably, was the end of her transformative effect.

If she suddenly encountered a Three Calamities Realm great foe, and they found she could temporarily become nine-winged, they’d likely choose not to provoke her again.

She just had the misfortune to meet the persistently pursuing Great Dream Demon Venerable.

"What was the outcome? She didn’t escape, did she?" Jiang Fan asked with a tense heart.

The speed of an Eight-winged Great Angel in the void might not necessarily be slower than the Great Dream Demon Venerable.

"There’s good news and bad news, which do you want to hear first?"

The Great Dream Demon Venerable asked anxiously.

Jiang Fan frowned, "Tell me the good news first."

The white mist beside the Great Dream Demon Venerable parted, revealing Linglong, wrapped tightly in white silk, forming a human-shaped cocoon.

Her graceful body twisted constantly, trying to break free, but the silk contained the Great Dream Demon Venerable’s law, holding her tightly bound, unable to escape.

"The good news is, she was captured alive," the Great Dream Demon Venerable said, "The bad news is..."

"This woman was too cunning, seeing she was losing, she threw the pouch containing the soul into a Life Space that had a specific incantation."

The mist beside Linglong parted as well, revealing a transparent Crystal Ball, with some living beings inside.

Among them was the pouch placing the Jiangshan First-class Building Owner.

Whoosh—

The Great Dream Demon Venerable flicked the Crystal Ball towards Jiang Fan.

Jiang Fan retreated cautiously, tried to open the Crystal Ball from a distance, and found his consciousness couldn’t enter at all.

This Crystal Ball indeed had an incantation.

In order to prevent Jiang Fan from killing to silence her, Linglong resorted to this tactic.

This indeed wasn’t good news.

Trying to extract the incantation from the mouth of an Eight-winged Great Angel— the difficulty was unprecedented.

However, at least the building owner was temporarily safe.

He gently tapped the Tai Chu Prison Sky Gourd with his finger, a mass of mist flew out, landed on the ground, and condensed into Flowing Edge Wilderness.

The Great Dream Demon Venerable controlled his emotions and said, "An exchange: your son for the woman."

Jiang Fan shook his head, "You have no credibility with me."

"Send her in first, then I’ll release your son!"
