Chapter 1860 - 1902: Heart-to-Heart Between True Words and Yun Shang
Chapter 1860: Chapter 1902: Heart-to-Heart Between True Words and Yun Shang
Amidst the scene, a fiery skeletal steed charged out of the Sin Realm under the light of a blood moon.
On its back was an ancient figure donned in armor, wielding a blood-colored long spear, charging ahead.
"Destination, Central Earth!"
"Kill! The human Jiang Fan!"
Meanwhile, across the hundred realms of all heavens, disturbances emerged.
Streaks of light cut through the dark void, converging toward Central Earth.
Central Earth, Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion.
Under the starry sky.
Fairy Yun Shang sat atop a rooftop, occasionally glancing at the stars, occasionally surveying the view ahead.
Nine fox tails, like snow-white clouds, floated gently behind her.
"Are you worried about him?"
Beside her, a figure in a yellow long gown appeared, graceful and refined, like a breeze from the mountains blowing away inner unrest.
Fairy Yun Shang looked up at her and gently nodded, "Yes."
"Although he always turns danger into safety during every crisis, I still can’t convince myself to be at ease."
"Have you moved everything from Washing Moon Lake?"
True Word Venerable smoothed her skirt and sat beside her, gazing at the distant scenery, nodding slightly:
"Everything is moved."
"From now on, this will be my home."
She had fully accepted Jiang Fan, considering herself as Jiang Fan’s woman.
Fairy Yun Shang propped her snowy cheeks, looking at True Word Venerable beside her, as if recalling something, unable to suppress a smile.
"What are you smiling about?" asked True Word Venerable.
Fairy Yun Shang said, "Remember when you lost your memory and imitated me?"
"I wore white clothes, and you wore white clothes too."
"I slept with Jiang, and you joined in, the three of us sleeping under the same blanket."
True Word Venerable straightened her body, blushing as she turned her face away:
"You know, that was when I lost my memory."
"That little rascal really took advantage."
After saying this, she couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
At that time, she was so furious she wanted to cut off Jiang Fan’s "life roots", but looking back now, it felt somewhat nostalgic.
Fairy Yun Shang also covered her mouth and laughed, linking arms with her and said, "Welcome to the family."
"Little Sister Zhenyan."
"I once told you that once you understand Jiang’s character, you would fall hopelessly in love with him. Wasn’t I right?"
True Word Venerable looked a bit embarrassed but did not deny that she had fallen for Jiang Fan’s character. She said:
"How did you know it would be like this?"
"I never had any romantic feelings for him before, even after he... well, you know."
Fairy Yun Shang showed a reminiscent expression, looking into the distance, saying softly:
"Because, your experience is somewhat similar to mine."
"The deeper the initial hatred, the deeper the eventual fall. It becomes an incurable infatuation."
True Word Venerable smiled slightly, indeed feeling some similarities.
However, she wasn’t as hopelessly infatuated as Fairy Yun Shang, always feeling there was something between them.
Fairy Yun Shang watched her with a smile and said, "There’s something I’ve wanted to ask you for a long time."
True Word Venerable nodded, "Go ahead."
Fairy Yun Shang asked, "Back when you lost your memory, you were fearless of anyone."
"But after a private conversation with Sister Youran, you became very afraid of her."
"Even after she left, when I mentioned Xu Youran was coming, you would be scared."
"I’m really curious, what did Sister Youran say to you?"
"Can you unravel this mystery now?"
Upon hearing this.
True Word Venerable’s body suddenly straightened, her face unnaturally tense, and said, "I... I’m going back to my room."
"I still have to instruct others in cultivation tomorrow."
"Don’t be in such a hurry, I want to know too."
Unexpectedly, a teasing, warm voice appeared behind the two women.
Before they could react, two large hands each encircled their waists, pulling them into an embrace.
The two women trembled, looked up, and immediately cried out in joy:
"Jiang!"
"Jiang Fan!"
Fairy Yun Shang wrapped her arms around Jiang Fan’s neck, bursting into tears of joy.
True Word Venerable felt slightly uncomfortable with the public display, feeling shy about being too intimate with Jiang Fan.
She even called him Jiang Fan, not husband.
Holding them both close, Jiang Fan felt an unparalleled sense of peace.
A feeling named happiness blossomed sweetly like candy.
He hugged them tightly and said, "Is everyone well?"
Fairy Yun Shang replied, "With your life uncertain, who could be well?"
"Let’s share the good news with everyone now."
Jiang Fan shook his head and said, "It’s already late, let’s wait until tomorrow."
"Moreover, tonight, I want to spend some good time with you both."
Fairy Yun Shang understood, burying her face in his chest, overwhelmed with shyness in her eyes.
True Word Venerable, on the other hand, seemed as if scalded, quickly rising from Jiang Fan’s embrace and said:
"I... I’m going back."
Jiang Fan grasped her small hand and teased, "We’ve already shared the same bed, what’s there to be shy about?"
"Why not make it real this time?"
What?
True Word Venerable shook his hand off and laughed in anger, "Keep dreaming!"
"I’m not talking to you!"
With that, she vanished in a flash.
Jiang Fan smiled in silence.
Fairy Yun Shang mused, "Jiang, is there some concern True Word has about your relationship?"
"It always seems like there’s a gap between you two."
Jiang Fan’s smile faded, and he nodded lightly, "I know what it is."
"I’ll help her once I’ve settled everything else."
Fairy Yun Shang nodded slightly but soon noticed the fatigue in Jiang Fan’s eyes, saying with concern, "What happened in the Hell Realm?"
Jiang Fan smiled slightly, wrapping his arm around her waist and lifting her legs, carrying her:
"The night is long, and I’ll tell you slowly, my dear."
Fairy Yun Shang covered her face in embarrassment, letting him carry her back to the house.
The next morning.
"Oh no!" Fairy Yun Shang suddenly sat up from her sleep.
The silk quilt silently slipped off, revealing her snow-white and flawless figure, exuding the aura of an Eight Aperture Demon Emperor.
A flicker of madness lingered faintly around her.
Jiang Fan suddenly realized something was amiss.
Before the Ancient Giant battle, Fairy Yun Shang was already a Seven Apertures Demon Emperor, and after receiving so many rewards, she also received rewards on her journey through the Hell Realm.
Her cultivation had long reached the peak of Seven Apertures, ready to break through to the Eight Orifices at any time.
Last night, after an intimate night with Jiang Fan, her Heavenly Fox Bloodline activated passively, absorbing Jiang Fan’s cultivation.
This allowed Fairy Yun Shang to break through to the Eight Aperture Demon Emperor.
He looked slightly serious, "How is your understanding of the Dao?"
Fairy Yun Shang bit her lip slightly, frowned, and said, "Thanks to the treasures Jiang brought back from the Ancient Hunt that enhance comprehension."
"I’ve almost comprehended it fully, nearing perfection."
"But..."
Jiang Fan’s expression grew serious.
Achieving Divinity Transformation requires no half-measures.
The understanding of Dao must be perfect!
Even a tiny deviation spells failure.
Fairy Yun Shang’s eyes filled with panic and said, "Jiang, I don’t want to become a madwoman."
Even with Eight Orifices, one risks spiraling into madness, bearing unsightly shackles, always at risk of being knocked unconscious.
She would rather remain forever in the Seven Apertures Demon Emperor Realm than face Jiang Fan this way.
Feeling her pleading gaze, Jiang Fan also felt helpless.
Comprehending the Dao is something others can’t easily influence...
Huh?
Suddenly, Jiang Fan’s eyes brightened.
