Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 2036: Chapter 2080: Not Even As Good As a Man

Gu Xin’er and Jiang Fan were the first to rush to the fence.

As they were about to charge in, the fence seemed to sense external threats and expanded sideways.

In this way, the gap wide enough for a skinny person became increasingly narrow.

This did not stop Jiang Fan. He silently activated the Origin of Form, his whole body continuously shrinking.

However, Gu Xin’er was even quicker.

With her already small frame, she slipped through effortlessly, reaching the Spirit Pond first, and her small hand quickly plucked a Destiny Star like a bolt of lightning.

Her small face was filled with surprise and pride as she turned around to boast excitedly:

"Yay yay yay yay yay! I won first!"

However, in the next moment, she could no longer laugh.

She saw that everyone else was stuck at the fence, struggling to get through.

Fairy Yun Shang, as she tried to slip through sideways, managed to get her head and waist in, but her prominent chest was stuck, preventing her from moving further.

She brushed her hair behind her ear, looking at Jiang Fan embarrassed:

"Jiang, I can’t get through. Can you help me?"

Jiang Fan nodded, took out a bag, and Fairy Yun Shang smiled as she leaped inside.

"Brother, I can’t get through either. What should I do?"

Ling Shu said softly and weakly.

The girl’s slender figure had her chest stuck as well.

Jiang Fan sighed, "You can come in too."

"Hehe, thank you, brother." Ling Shu giggled sweetly and jumped into the bag.

True Word Venerable was still trying to get through the fence but to no avail, he had to glance at Jiang Fan seeking help.

Jiang Fan, amused yet helpless, said: "Come in, all of you who can’t get through."

The women present all showed gratitude and entered the bag one after another.

Upon witnessing this, Gu Xin’er’s face no longer had the smile of a winner.

Her white teeth bit her lower lip hard, tears glimmering in her eyes.

She blinked, forcibly holding back her tears: "It’s okay, I’ll endure and get through somehow."

But then.

Liang Feiyan’s loud voice echoed over: "I can’t get through either."

"Brother Jiang, I have to trouble you."

With a face like an angel and the figure of an Asura, Liang Feiyan couldn’t squeeze through the fence at all.

The head was fine, but the massive pectoral muscles at the front gave him no chance to get through.

He sighed helplessly: "Ah, these flamboyant pecs of mine."

Gu Xin’er, who could no longer hold back, finally burst into tears:

"Wah wah wah... I’m not even as good as a man, you’re all bullying me!"

Jiang Fan gathered everyone into the bag and brought them to the Spirit Pond, first picking one himself.

When he tried to pick another one, reaching out his hand, the Destiny Star became as if transparent, silently passing through his palm.

"It really seems you can only pick one." Jiang Fan said with a slight regret.

He released everyone, and they all rushed to pick the Destiny Stars.

In an instant, the rare treasures that had been growing for countless years were all plucked clean.

Those who got one were naturally ecstatic, while those who didn’t were downcast.

"Brother..." Ling Shu pouted with a small face.

Among everyone, her cultivation was considered the lowest, hence she couldn’t grab one.

Jiang Fan smiled, patting her smooth hair: "Do you have any unfulfilled wishes? I’ll help you realize them."

Among all the women, if there was someone he cherished the most, it was undoubtedly Ling Shu.

Ling Shu extended her white little hand, holding Jiang Fan’s large hand, and said:

"I wish, after I leave, Brother will be happy every day."

Jiang Fan was stunned on the spot.

It turned out, her wish was for him to live better.

Jiang Fan tapped her nose, saying: "I will."

"You take care too. When we don’t have to hustle around anymore, I’ll go back to the continent’s grassland with you."

Ling Shu’s eyes, like stars at dawn, gently brightened:

"By then, Brother will certainly be a peerless powerhouse, able to sever the Vast Sea with one finger and clear the heavens with one gaze."

"Will Brother still be willing to chop wood, feed horses, watch the clouds roll by, and listen to the silent speech of the stars?"

Jiang Fan gently held her delicate face, saying: "Wherever you are, I’m willing to do anything."

Ling Shu’s face lit up like clouds parting to reveal the sun, displaying a brilliantly bright smile once more.

She reached out her hand, hugging Jiang Fan deeply, listening to his strong heartbeat, saying:

"I’ll wait for you."

"This time, let’s not let either of us be late."

Jiang Fan’s body stiffened, a sense of foreboding surfaced in his heart.

Promises of returning cattle and sheep often went unfulfilled.

Once, Ling Shu’s death had let a promise fall to nothing.

Now, promises rose again.

Jiang Fan, however, faced an unavoidable fate of death.

Could it be, that the next one to be late would be him?

"What’s wrong, Brother?" Ling Shu raised her head and asked.

Jiang Fan showed a gentle smile: "Nothing."

"I will keep the appointment, undoubtedly."

Unnoticed, he gripped the Destiny Star, silently praying in his heart:

"Unravel my fate of death."

A gentle breeze blew, swaying the long Destiny Star, the star at the very top wobbled, exuding a dream-like glow.

It had no reaction.

Jiang Fan’s heart gradually sank; the cause and effect of the death fate were too significant for the Destiny Star to resolve.

This obstacle, in the end, he must break through.

Simultaneously, Fairy Yun Shang, True Word Venerable, Xia Chaoge, and others obtained the Destiny Stars.

In their eyes, a deep look of anticipation emerged.

"Waaahh..." Until a loud cry echoed through the hall.

It was Gu Xin’er holding the unchanged Destiny Star, extremely upset:

"Even the Destiny Star can’t change my fate."

"Oh heavens, I don’t want to live anymore!"

Jiang Fan’s mouth twitched.

What a joke, could Gu Xin’er’s grasp be more troublesome than his fate of death?

But what really made the corners of his mouth twitch was Gu Xin’er, after a few cries, wiping her tears, fiercely said:

"Forget it, I’ve given up hope."

"I’ll just focus on my Second Domain instead. I want the heavens to never have big busts again! I want the earth to never hurt my heart again!"

For a moment, all the women present were all on edge.

Even the millennia-old Red Demon Venerable showed a face of worry, cursing:

"You rebellious disciple!"

Jiang Fan wiped his face; he really couldn’t bear to watch anymore.

Looking up at the dome of the hall, there was a spinning space vortex.

That must undoubtedly be the exit.

"Everyone, this exploration ends here." Jiang Fan said with a smile.

The boisterous crowd of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion all fell silent.

This was the last time the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion would go out in full force; it would be hard to replicate in the future.

After leaving this place, many would go their separate ways.

Their destinies might never intersect again.

Jiang Fan also felt it, saying: "In different stages of life, we will meet different people. Learning to say goodbye is an essential lesson for us."

"For those staying in the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, we cherish the time we spend together even more."

"For those leaving the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, if your heart holds longing, you can come back to visit, the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion will always be your home."

Everyone’s hearts were stirred.

They witnessed firsthand, the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion growing from just a Nascent Soul realm sect on the continent, to becoming the number one sect in Taicang State step by step.

They witnessed the first Divinity Transformation in Central Earth, witnessed the rise of the Champion Marquis.

They witnessed his leadership of Central Earth, from a dead-end to defeating the Ancient Giants, creating an epic in the Southern Heavenly Realm.

They witnessed the birth of a glorious era, witnessed a legend etched in the flames.

But many of them had their own paths to follow.
