Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 2326: Chapter 2375: Yandere

Yu Luo looked puzzled. "What did you see?"

She had never seen the Mixed Element Nine-winged Archangel with such a bizarre expression.

It took a long time for the Mixed Element Nine-winged Archangel to slowly recover. He turned to look in the direction where Jiang Fan had disappeared and murmured, "Just who on earth is that?"

Unconvinced, Yu Luo said, "Who on earth? In the past you captured, where exactly did I lose?"

The Mixed Element Nine-winged Archangel sighed. "Lose?

"How can you even compare yourself to someone who modified a Quasi-Immortal Technique?

"The West Empress was saving face for you."

Modify... a Quasi-Immortal Technique?

A Quasi-Immortal Technique... that was a Supreme Skill that only a Saint could create. With her Body of Great Dao Resonance, she could only barely comprehend it to find its flaws. She was not even qualified to practice it, let alone modify it!

Yet, that Human Clan member who was even younger than her had actually helped the West Empress modify a Quasi-Immortal Technique! No wonder the West Empress had completely lost her composure.

Yu Luo suddenly laughed. A somewhat morbid smile squeezed onto her ice-cold face as she said, "Good, good, good! To think I could meet such a special Prodigy in a small place far from the Divine Capital.

"My special trip here was not in vain.

"Hun Yuan, spend the next half month thoroughly investigating that kid’s past. I want to know exactly what his background is."

Looking at the strangely laughing Yu Luo, the Mixed Element Nine-winged Archangel felt a chill in his heart and quickly bowed. "Yes."

In the center of the Holy City.

Inside Linglong’s grand hall.

"Chaoge, Elder Kong, you need to escape the Northern Heavenly State!" Yun Wanxiao said, his expression grave. "It will be too late if you delay any longer! There is only one day left before the East Emperor forces Chaoge into marriage."

Xia Chaoge looked as calm as usual, but her gaze remained fixed on the direction of the West Saint Palace, her eyes filled with deep worry.

Linglong also sighed helplessly. "We overestimated him in the end."

She had held immense faith in Jiang Fan. How could a man who had guided Xia Chaoge to become a Five Qi Angel Lord in just half a month be an ordinary person? But Jiang Fan had promised to return quickly, yet he had gone and never come back.

"That man is a menace!" Yun Wanxiao scoffed. "If we hadn’t wasted a full day and a half waiting for news from him, I could have at least calmly arranged for Hua Wenqi to take her place in the marriage. Now we can only resort to the worst option and flee the Northern Heavenly State."

Looking at Chaoge, Linglong sighed softly. "Chaoge, it’s time to make a decision."

Xia Chaoge did not hesitate. "I will wait for him," she said quietly.

Her martial uncle had risked meeting the West Empress for her sake. She could not abandon him and leave on her own.

Seeing that Xia Chaoge was constantly thinking about Jiang Fan, Yun Wanxiao said angrily, "There’s no need to wait! He might have already lost his life there!"

What?

Xia Chaoge turned around and looked at him in confusion. "Why would you say that? The West Empress takes good care of him. How could she harm him?"

Yun Wanxiao hesitated for a moment before casting a veil of Five-Colored Divine Light to block any outside prying. "When I returned to the Five Magnet Immortal Mountain yesterday, I accidentally learned a secret," he said grimly.

"The Cultivation Technique the West Empress practices is a forbidden Dark Quasi-Immortal Technique. Anyone who pries into this Immortal Technique will be injured by a mysterious forbidden power. Even the East Emperor was severely wounded by it in the past.

"This time, Yu Luo from the Lost Heavenly Realm possesses the Body of Great Dao Resonance, which barely allows her to touch that forbidden Magic. But that guy is just a mortal of flesh and blood. It would be best if he knew his place, but if he dared to touch it, he is undoubtedly dead."

Xia Chaoge’s heart instantly leaped into her throat.

Linglong’s face darkened slightly. "Then him not returning... does that mean..."

Yun Wanxiao gloated inwardly.

The day before yesterday, Jiang Fan had been invited into the West Saint Palace by the Flower Skirt Six-winged Great Angel, while he, Yun Wanxiao, had been blocked outside, which made him exceptionally angry. To obtain an audience with the West Empress, he had returned to the Five Magnet Immortal Mountain to seek help from the will that had granted him his inheritance. That was how the other party informed him of the West Empress’s secret.

Now that Jiang Fan had been gone for a day and a half, he was likely doomed.

This time, Xia Chaoge should finally give up hope. Next, as long as he took Xia Chaoge and fled the Northern Heavenly State, escaping the East Emperor’s control, Chaoge would belong to him!

However, right at this moment, the Five-Colored Divine Light overhead suddenly flickered. Immediately after, a figure flowing with tri-colored power forced his way inside. He was dressed in black and completely unafraid of the Five-Colored Divine Light. Who else could it be but Jiang Fan?

He was still wearing a mask, however, appearing as an unfamiliar young man.

He cast a bizarre look at the Five-Colored Divine Light. "Do you guys have some earth-shattering secret to discuss? Is it convenient for me to listen in?"

Yun Wanxiao and Linglong were both stunned on the spot. Jiang Fan was actually fine?

Xia Chaoge’s face burst with dazzling surprise. "Martial...

"Teacher, are you all right?"

She quickly ran over and inspected Jiang Fan. Her first thought was not whether her martial uncle had succeeded, but whether he was safe and sound.

Jiang Fan looked baffled. "I just went to see the West Empress. What could happen?"

"But isn’t the West Empress’s Cultivation Technique very dangerous?" Xia Chaoge asked worriedly.

Jiang Fan was surprised. Xia Chaoge actually knew about that? However, he had to pretend that his memory had been erased by the West Empress; he couldn’t give himself away.

"I don’t know," he said blankly. "Anyway, the West Empress has already agreed to help you."

What?

Linglong was pleasantly surprised. "Really?"

Jiang Fan nodded and said, "The West Empress said it herself."

Xia Chaoge beamed, looking sweetly at Jiang Fan.

It seemed there was nothing in this world her martial uncle could not accomplish. In Central Earth, he had sworn to wipe out the Southern Heavenly Realm, and he ultimately succeeded. Now, even after leaving Central Earth, he still possessed this omnipotent, miraculous ability. He was actually able to sway the decision of the ruler of the Northern Heavenly State.

Lingling was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Please take a seat, young master. I will personally serve you tea!"

As an Eight-winged Archangel, she immediately brewed tea for Jiang Fan on the spot. Such courteous treatment was something only the East Emperor and West Empress could enjoy.

Seeing this, Yun Wanxiao’s face turned extremely gloomy. He had been on the verge of eloping with Chaoge. Why did Jiang Fan have to come back? Why?

RUMBLE—

The grand hall suddenly trembled violently as an angry will descended upon the space above them. The betrothal gifts on the ground began to vanish into thin air one by one.

The East Emperor had arrived! He was taking back his betrothal gifts!

Clearly, the West Empress had come out of seclusion and warned the East Emperor.

From the void, the exceptionally deep voice of the East Emperor echoed. "You asked the West Empress to deal with me, didn’t you?

"Xia Chaoge, you cannot escape the promise you owe me!"

Linglong lowered her head, trembling inwardly. She knew her family had thoroughly offended the East Emperor. But as long as the West Empress was around, the East Emperor wouldn’t dare force a marriage on Chaoge. Their crisis was resolved.

Hearing the East Emperor’s voice gradually fading away, everyone quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Only Yun Wanxiao had a flash of viciousness in his gloomy eyes. He called out loudly, "East Emperor, please wait! This junior has a secret to share."

The East Emperor’s fading voice returned once more. "Speak."

Yun Wanxiao tilted his head to look at Jiang Fan and said menacingly, "Does the East Emperor know his true identity?"

Jiang Fan was competing with the East Emperor for a woman and had ruined his plans! How could the East Emperor possibly let him live?
