Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 2111: Chapter 2155: Lady in the Green Dress

Upon entering, a pungent smell of blood assaulted his senses.

An icy, ominous aura penetrated his body, triggering the Divinity Transformation Power and Void Flowing Two Forces to activate automatically.

The already uncontrollable body fell into disarray.

Jiang Fan almost lost control and fell.

He wobbled as he scanned the surroundings, only then realizing that the entire World of Darkness was bathed in blood-red.

This was due to the absence of any ground in sight.

There was only a Blood Sea beyond the sight of even Sages!

A real Blood Sea in the truest sense!

Because this was indeed blood!

Jiang Fan stared at the Blood Sea in shock, hardly daring to believe it: "Where did all this blood come from?"

Even if all the beings from Central Earth and the Southern Heavenly Realm were slaughtered, it wouldn’t come close to filling this Blood Sea.

Unless you annihilate the Hundred Realms of All Heavens.

As for the ominous aura infiltrating his body, it was the unique aura bred by the Blood Sea within the World of Darkness.

Similar to the Yin Qi favored by the Asura Clan.

Jiang Fan had no trouble controlling such sinister energy.

Within the Heavenly Abyss Heart, a stream of Holy Power coursed through his body.

The ominous aura transformed into blood-colored smoke, seeping through his pores.

The multitude of uncontrolled forces returned to calm.

Jiang Fan looked at the Jade Scroll in his hand, then began to ponder:

"The Great Wine Sacrifice mentioned leaving it to the Yu Mian Fox, but where is the Yu Mian Fox? Who is it?"

"Such a vast world, surely I won’t have to search aimlessly like finding a needle in the ocean?"

So, he guessed that this Yu Mian Fox must be well-known in the World of Darkness and easy to find.

He just needed to find someone here to inquire about it.

Just then.

He felt something and looked eastward. In the far distance, a beautifully dressed woman in a green gown was fleeing in a panic.

A group of black-robed Human Clan experts, obviously disguised, pursued relentlessly.

Jiang Fan frowned slightly.

He didn’t know the full story; unclear of the good or evil on both sides, he didn’t intend to intervene and rescue.

Moreover, he had just arrived in the World of Darkness and ran into such events over the desolate Blood Sea. Could it be too coincidental?

However, he inadvertently noticed a blood-stained swaddling cloth in the woman’s arms, holding a newborn baby!

After a brief hesitation, he still flashed over towards them.

The woman in the green gown looked pale, her Heavenly Human Five Declines aura fluctuating.

Already in a vulnerable state post-childbirth, faced with pursuit, she struggled even more.

Before long, she was surrounded by nine black-robed individuals.

Among them, the highest cultivation was the Heavenly Human Five Declines, the lowest the Heavenly Person Decline, each wielding unique Magic Artifacts.

The woman in the green gown knew she had no escape and after several struggles, knelt down:

"I will go with you, but..."

She lowered her head to look at the baby in her embrace, showing reluctance: "But please spare my child, can you?"

The Heavenly Human Five Declines Human coldly replied: "No problem, first abolish your cultivation, we guarantee to spare his life."

The woman in the green gown showed a struggle.

After abolishing her cultivation, the decision whether to spare her child was left entirely to their whims.

If she refused to abolish her cultivation, she still couldn’t protect the child.

She could only rely on their conscience.

She immediately gritted her teeth and said: "Fine, I agree!"

Giving the last look to the child in her arms, she decisively raised her hand and struck her Divine Ring at the back of her head.

With a crunch, the Divine Ring shattered.

The aura of the Heavenly Human Five Declines swiftly dissipated, her cultivation falling back to the Nascent Soul Realm, at their mercy.

The black-robed man’s eyes glistened, mercilessly slashing the woman in the green gown along with the child in her embrace.

The woman instinctively turned around, sheltering the child in her arms and blocking the attack with her back.

The moment her back was split open, revealing a gory spine.

The pain made the woman groan miserably and angrily shouted: "You really don’t honor your word!"

The black-robed man sneered grimly: "Who told you to be stupid enough to trust us?"

"Die with your cursed child!"

His long blade suddenly stabbed towards the woman’s back, intending to pierce through her along with the child in her embrace.

But, at that moment.

A blood-red claw descended from the sky, firmly hooking onto the long blade.

The black-robed man was taken aback, quickly looking upwards.

Only to see a young man clad in a black robe, handsome with a jade-like face, standing in mid-air, calmly watching them.

"Are you interfering with someone else’s business?" he shouted in a deep voice.

Jiang Fan responded lightly: "I am merely a passerby, I didn’t intend to interfere, but your actions don’t seem like those of good people, so I’m asking about the reason."

"If the woman is wicked and evil or has a deep-seated grudge with you, then feel free to handle it."

"If she’s innocent, you leave at once!"

The black-robed man sneered disdainfully: "Who are you to say that?"

The eight black-robed men beside him all assumed attack postures.

Jiang Fan remained expressionless, casually tugged a ligament, and the sharp claw tore the top-grade Magic Artifact sword into pieces!

Such terrifying power frightened the black-robed men, who quickly dodged away.

Exchanging glances with a few companions, they wisely fled.

Forget about how formidable the claw was, the mere fact that it effortlessly destroyed a long blade from a Heavenly Human Five Declines alone showed remarkable strength.

Jiang Fan did not pursue them.

Saving a person was enough; there was no need to kill and incur Cause and Effect.

He glanced at the woman in the green gown, then turned to Instantaneous Movement away.

"Benefactor, wait!" The woman’s tearful voice called out, she knelt in mid-air, bowing her head: "Thank you for saving our lives, benefactor."

"We mother and child are eternally grateful."

Jiang Fan replied without turning his head: "No need to thank, it was just convenient."

The woman in the green gown eyed him with gratitude, briefly pondering, then took out a blood-red jade resembling a pretty but unnamed flower from her embrace.

"Benefactor, this is the reason they pursued and killed me."

"My husband obtained the Blood River Ghost Flower, and they joined forces to kill us as a couple. To protect me and the child, my husband fought to delay and perished."

What?

Jiang Fan, who was about to leave, suddenly turned back, looking in surprise at the Blood River Ghost Flower in his hand.

Just entering the World of Darkness and encountering the Blood River Ghost Flower?

With tears in her eyes, the woman in the green gown explained: "Benefactor, I can no longer protect this item, now I present it to you."

"Firstly, to thank you for saving our lives, secondly, to ask you to escort us mother and child to the Undying Mountain."

Jiang Fan hesitated as he approached: "This was bought with your husband’s life, are you truly willing to give it to me?"

The woman wiped her tears, nodding repeatedly: "I wholeheartedly consent! Please accept it, benefactor!"

Cradling the child with one arm, she extended the Blood River Ghost Flower with the other.

Jiang Fan hesitated briefly, then said: "Alright."

"I will safely escort you to the Undying Mountain."

Immediately, he accepted the Blood River Ghost Flower, placing it in a wooden box.

The woman in the green gown smiled through her tears.

Just then, the baby in her arms cried, causing her to glance down and turn backward embarrassedly: "Benefactor, please wait a moment. The child is hungry."

Next, she unfastened her garment.

Jiang Fan said nothing, silently turning around.

After he turned, everything behind him suddenly went quiet!

Immediately afterward, a dense blood aura suddenly blew from behind, enveloping him within.

This blood aura was the unique obscure force of the World of Darkness!

But, hundreds of times more concentrated than the aura in the air!
