Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 2045: Chapter 2089: Hope

The Northern Heavenly State does not welcome the Human Clan.

It especially does not welcome the Human Clan from Central Earth!

Additionally, Jiang Fan, having polluted the East Emperor Great Angel’s Law with Tao Slave Filthy Blood, created a rift between them.

Jiang Fan coming to the Northern Heavenly State is akin to digging his own grave!

"Master Uncle, you cannot come, you will die!" Xia Chaoge cried urgently.

Jiang Fan slowly let go of her hand and said:

"You died once for your Master Uncle; what’s the harm if Master Uncle dies once for you?"

"Wait in the Northern Heavenly State, Master Uncle will come to find you."

Boom——

A giant space turbulence swept Xia Chaoge and the Little Qilin into the Void.

The Void Rift slowly closed.

Xia Chaoge hurriedly flapped her wings to fly back, but the rift grew smaller and smaller.

She could only see Jiang Fan standing with hands behind his back, smiling as he watched her silhouette gradually disappear.

As the rift closed, Jiang Fan’s final words came through.

"Next time we meet, remember to think of your request, Master Uncle will fulfill it!"

Clang——

The Void Rift completely closed.

Xia Chaoge took out a pendant, attempting to slice through the world’s barrier again when a radiant light, illuminating the Void, flickered from afar.

It was the East Emperor Great Angel!

Even at a close distance, the holy light from his body was still incredibly intense, beyond the reach of ordinary sight, making his form hard to distinguish.

"Where is he?" The East Emperor Great Angel’s voice boomed with supreme authority.

Xia Chaoge put away the pendant and bowed, saying, "Reporting to the Great Angel, he has left."

The East Emperor Great Angel’s gaze, commanding the attention of All Heavens, fell upon the world barrier behind Xia Chaoge.

On the other side of the world barrier, Jiang Fan also coldly stared back.

The oppressive aura of a world, the world barrier couldn’t even block it!

The two sides coldly gazed at each other through the world barrier.

Jiang Fan glanced at the Thunder God Heavenly Palace.

He wished the East Emperor Great Angel would strike here; if it could provoke the ancient monster inside the Thunder God Heavenly Palace, all the better!

By then, with the two biting each other, Xia Chaoge might not need to return.

The East Emperor Great Angel’s gaze grew sharper, with a hint of murderous intent flowing in his eyes.

Visible to the naked eye, one large patch behind his nine pairs of wings was pitch-black, as if polluted by something.

Indeed, it was Jiang Fan’s handiwork!

However, the East Emperor Great Angel, being close to the rank of a Saint, could sense the fortunes and misfortunes of heaven and earth.

The region of Central Earth before him gave him a foreboding sense.

After much contemplation, he slowly withdrew his gaze, turning to Xia Chaoge, whose sharp eyes quickly softened, filled with kindness and affection.

"Come back with me to the Northern Heavenly State, that’s where your home truly lies."

Xia Chaoge bowed her head, her eyes showing profound struggle; in the end, amidst a hint of pain, she clasped her hands and said, "Could the East Emperor please help the junior with a request."

Central Earth.

Jiang Fan closely sensed the outside world; soon, a subtle fluctuation silently penetrated the world barrier and swept across all corners of Central Earth.

His heart grew cold, he quickly checked his body but found nothing amiss.

While mulling over this, the external pressure dissipated like tides receding.

The East Emperor Great Angel and Xia Chaoge had left.

Jiang Fan clenched his fist: "Northern Heavenly State, I will definitely go someday!"

Just as he was about to leave.

The thunder inside him surged uncontrollably and quickly condensed into the Heavenly Thunder Six Parts.

The familiar scene appeared once more.

The old monster in the Thunder God Heavenly Palace was about to play his old tricks again.

"Will I fall for the same trap a second time?"

"Explode!"

He muttered, and the space storage device in his arms shattered, releasing a burst of multicolored Spiritual Liquid, which covered his entire body.

It was the Angel Blood!

Under the suppression of the multicolored blood, the Heavenly Thunder Six Parts that activated automatically on his body gradually extinguished.

Since Jiang Fan came to the Thunder God Heavenly Palace, there was no reason not to be prepared.

After eliminating the hidden threat, he decisively performed Instantaneous Movement to distance himself from the Ten Thousand Tribulations Holy Temple.

Now, he had something to do.

That was to confirm which Sage had fallen.

If it was a Sage from beyond the heavens, that would be manageable; he could think of a way to compensate the world they belonged to with an opportunity for breaking through to the Sage Realm.

If it were a Sage from Central Earth, the compensation would not be as simple as a material offering.

Buzz——

Suddenly, the world trembled intensely, several Sage auras descended upon the Taicang State.

The Sages from the Southern Heavenly Realm had returned.

In the next moment, three Sages—Green Pearl, Dongfang Canyue, and Heavenly Craft Sage—appeared phasing from void to reality before Jiang Fan.

Seeing Jiang Fan unharmed.

The Heavenly Craft Sage breathed a sigh of relief: "It’s good that you’re okay."

After speaking, he stood silently to the side, saying nothing, his face devoid of joy.

Even the ordinarily jovial Dongfang Canyue now wore a worried expression while looking at Jiang Fan.

Green Pearl stepped forward and directly embraced Jiang Fan, saying, "Husband, let’s return to the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion."

Jiang Fan sensed their peculiar behavior, a foreboding premonition surfacing: "Who has fallen?"

The three remained silent.

The ominous feeling in Jiang Fan’s heart grew more intense; in the Wise Man Realm of Central Earth, there were two people he cared about most.

Green Pearl and the Jiangshan First-class Building Owner.

If someone else had fallen, there would be no need for such reticence.

It could only be one of them, and with Green Pearl by his side, the fallen must be...

Jiang Fan’s face gradually lost color, his throat seemed blocked: "Was the Spirit Rain for the Nameless Sage?"

The three became even more silent.

The surroundings swiftly quietened, even the bustling winds fell silent.

Silence was the answer.

Jiang Fan’s body began to tremble, unable to accept: "How... could it be him..."

His eyes gradually lost focus, his mind flooded with countless images of the Jiangshan First-class Building Owner.

The owner who charged him for every question he asked.

The black-market businessman whose paper avatars spread across the entire Taicang State.

The majestic figure quietly dedicating himself to Central Earth while bearing its curses.

He, had actually fallen.

"No... it can’t be..." Jiang Fan could not accept: "There must be a remnant soul of him lingering in the world."

"Sages all leave remnant souls to guard against unforeseen events, the Nameless Sage is so cunning, he couldn’t have failed to leave a way out."

"Yes, there must be a remnant soul!"

The Heavenly Craft Sage regarded Jiang Fan with a touch of sorrow: "When the Spirit Rain falls, it signifies the annihilation of body and soul."

"The Building Owner... did not leave any remnant soul for himself."

The true form of the Nameless Sage, unknown to the ordinary, how could the Sages of Central Earth not comprehend?

Moreover, Jiang Fan understood that the Jiangshan First-class Building Owner deliberately did not leave himself a way out.

The Wise Man Realm to him was, in truth, a form of torment.

Daily he listened to the hatred Taicang State held against him, the remorse and guilt would trap him in agony.

Thus, to him, death was indeed relief.

Jiang Fan’s eyes reddened, a cry of grief roared within his heart.

Peaceful times had arrived in Central Earth, yet the Jiangshan First-class Building Owner, who fought at the forefront, had fallen.

Why did it happen?

Why!!!

Dongfang Canyue lowered her head, her eyes equally wet: "He fell near the Connecting Sky Black Pillar."

She spoke indirectly, but Jiang Fan understood.

The Jiangshan First-class Building Owner was slain by the East Emperor Great Angel while blocking for Jiang Fan.

Tears spilled uncontrollably from Jiang Fan’s eyes, he roared angrily:

"You are a profiteer, a profiteer! Why did you sacrifice yourself for others?"

"Are you really a merchant?"

Green Pearl, weeping, just clung tightly to him.

No one uttered comforting words.

The Jiangshan First-class Building Owner was one of the closest elders to Jiang Fan, aiding him endlessly since they met in the Continent.

Jiang Fan’s ability to achieve Divinity Transformation hinged on the half Soul Awakening Divine Nails painstakingly gathered by the Jiangshan First-class Building Owner.

Such an elder leaving abruptly, sacrificing himself for Jiang Fan, was not something mere words could console.

The world felt solemn, as if mourning for the Jiangshan First-class Building Owner’s fall.

But, just then.

An ancient and hoarse laughter surged from the direction of the Ten Thousand Tribulations Holy Temple.

"Young one, you enjoy transactions, so why don’t we make a deal?"
