Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 2123: Chapter 2167: Entrustment

What?

Jiang Fan exclaimed in surprise, "How does sister know?"

The woman in the blue robe said, "The reason why the Asura Saint Son chose our Netherworld as the first target is just one."

"That is, our Netherworld has a Blood Sea."

"Moreover, the blood water can accelerate the gestation of the Ten Thousand Corpses Gu, bringing it forth prematurely!"

"He destroyed the Divine Tree to let it sink into the Blood Sea, so the Ten Thousand Corpses Gu buried in the earth could be nourished."

Jiang Fan suddenly understood!

So this is the real reason why the Asura Saint Son destroyed the Divine Tree.

The woman in the blue robe said, "Among all heavens, besides our Netherworld, there is another world filled with Blood Sea like us."

"That is the Black Abyss Realm!"

"It is a medium-sized world. In the era of the Daqian Divine Kingdom, our Netherworld was part of the Black Abyss Realm."

"Only when the Daqian Divine Kingdom broke into pieces did our Netherworld separate."

"The Blood Sea there is much more than in our Netherworld!"

"It’s just that there are far more strong ones there than in our place, so the Asura Saint Son didn’t dare to focus on that world first."

Black Abyss Realm?

Jiang Fan took out the Void Map, and after a search, he found that this world was actually close to the Martial Vault!

He secretly noted the name of the Black Abyss Realm.

The woman in the blue robe said, "Fan, you need not worry, I have sent Yu Yan to the Black Abyss Realm to warn them to be on guard."

"Coincidentally, Yu Yan also has a task that requires her to go to the Black Abyss Realm."

This is for the best.

Jiang Fan’s voice is negligible, and the Black Abyss Realm may not take it seriously, but as the Netherworld and Black Abyss Realm share the same origin, their words carry more weight.

Kacha——

Suddenly, the array opened.

A figure wrapped in coldness rushed into the formation, nine fox tails furiously pounding towards Jiang Fan.

The woman in the blue robe glanced over and said lightly, "Yu Yan, you are being outrageous!"

The attacking Princess Yu Yan was instantly knocked back, crashing onto the array.

The dark red slime on her body had been cleaned off, including on her face.

With its stickiness, only self-destruction of the skin could resolve it.

So, Princess Yu Yan must have suffered a bit.

"Mother, do you know what he did?" Princess Yu Yan glared coldly at Jiang Fan!

As a daughter in the Three Calamities Realm, she had been pampered since childhood; when had she ever suffered such losses?

With authority, the woman in the blue robe said, "What could your uncle do to you?"

Princess Yu Yan opened her mouth, but swallowed back the words before speaking.

Initially, she had mischievously teased Jiang Fan, only to be fooled by Jiang Fan.

If she said anything now, her mother would just doubly chastise her!

Jiang Fan, not finding the spectacle enough, said, "Yu Yan, why are you speechless? Don’t wrong yourself!"

Princess Yu Yan seethed, spitting out four words through gritted teeth: "Shameless beyond measure!"

"Silence!" the woman in the blue robe said with authority, "You are being too impudent!"

"What contributions has your uncle made to the Netherworld? Are you even slightly grateful?"

She understood her daughter and knew Jiang Fan’s character.

Someone who sought no reward, gifting precious Breath Soil to a world he barely knew, saving countless lives.

Would he bully Yu Yan for no reason?

And Yu Yan, naturally proud and aloof, held great disdain towards Jiang Fan as her uncle.

Most likely, it was Yu Yan who provoked Jiang Fan, resulting in a lesson from him.

Seeing the woman in the blue robe angered, Jiang Fan hurriedly tried to ease the situation, saying, "Sis, Yu Yan and I were just playing chase."

"She is a very admirable girl; just now we encountered three virtuous subordinates of the Asura Saint Son."

"To win you time to repair the Divine Tree, Yu Yan alone held off the three, nearly risking her life."

"You should not blame her."

The woman in the blue robe was surprised that they had encountered such danger!

Her anger subsided greatly.

But she could still not forgive Yu Yan’s rudeness.

"I will reward for achievements and punish for faults."

She raised her hand towards Yu Yan, making a chop, and Yu Yan let out a painful moan.

Yu Yan’s ninth fox tail was cut off by half.

Then, the blood-tipped end flew into the hand of the woman in the blue robe, transforming into a sparkling small fox.

The woman in the blue robe raised her palm, sending it into Jiang Fan’s mind.

Jiang Fan felt instantly that a small fox’s spirit was now part of his soul.

"Sis, what is this for?" Jiang Fan asked, puzzled.

The woman in the blue robe said:

"This is a fragment of Yu Yan’s soul. If she speaks rudely to you again, a spell will remind her how she should speak to you!"

It turned out she was placing a metaphorical binding curse on Yu Yan.

Yu Yan exclaimed in shock, "Mother, are you mad, letting a stranger control me?"

"What if he does something to me..."

Seeing the icy stare from the woman in the blue robe, she quickly retracted her words.

But her heart was full of resentment.

Wasn’t her mother trusting this slick talker a bit too much?

Even if the other party was a benefactor to the Netherworld, he was also a young man around her age.

If he had any evil intentions, her soul would be at his mercy, unable to resist!

Jiang Fan also felt uneasy and quickly said, "Sis, that’s unnecessary."

"We really were just playing around."

If he had known the consequences were so severe, he wouldn’t have teased Yu Yan.

The woman in the blue robe looked at Jiang Fan, and a sigh echoed in his mind.

"Punishing her is secondary, primarily it gives her a way out."

"The dark tides might erupt at any moment; chaos is rising in the Hundred Realms of All Heavens. If Yu Yan meets with misfortune, she’ll need a fragment of her soul to resurrect."

Jiang Fan replied in surprise, "Sis, you yourself are in the Three Calamities Realm, wouldn’t it be safer to keep the soul fragment with you?"

"I don’t even know how long I myself will survive."

The woman in the blue robe, solemn, said, "Once the world plunges into chaos, we realm lords are the first to be swept into war, our lives not our own."

"You, on the other hand, have better chances of survival."

"If all else fails, you could entrust that roguish man to keep my daughter’s soul safe."

Jiang Fan was stunned.

It seemed the woman in the blue robe had sensed some ominous signs and was preparing to entrust her daughter.

He thought briefly and said, "Alright, I’ll keep it safe. If I sense my end approaching, I’ll seek help from the Great Wine Sacrifice."

The woman in the blue robe nodded gently in gratitude.

The conversation ended, and they happily completed the entrustment regarding Princess Yu Yan.

The woman in the blue robe said, "Fan, do you have any doubts in your cultivation? Let your sister guide you a bit."

"Let’s see if it can help you quickly comprehend the Fifth Domain."

Jiang Fan beamed with joy, but then said, "Insight can wait; I have two long-standing questions to ask my sister."

It’s rare to meet such a knowledgeable and particularly affable Three Calamity Realm Great Sage.

He needed to seize the opportunity to ask.

The woman in the blue robe pulled Jiang Fan to sit back down, very willing, and said, "Please ask, Fan."

Jiang Fan seriously asked, "Sis, what exactly is the dark tides?"

"Why is it said to destroy the Hundred Realms of All Heavens?"

"Even the Ancient Dark Creatures fear its arrival?"

Hearing this question, the smile on the woman in the blue robe’s face faded, replaced by a heavy seriousness.

After hesitating for a moment, she took a slight breath, calming her heavy heart, and asked:

"Before I answer, let me ask you a question."

"Do you know how the Ancient Dark Creatures came into being?"
