Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 1398: Chapter 1416: The Sage’s Methods (Fifth Update)

Hiss!

Ziwei Fairy gasped, her beautiful eyes contracted to the extreme.

To be able to reverse the time of the entire Kaiyang City, it must at least be at the Sage Realm, right?

She covered her red lips under the mask, surprised: "Without evidence, you can’t just say something like this."

Jiang Fan’s eyes gleamed with intelligence, saying: "The evidence is on us!"

"You must feel the same as I do, that some scenes seem familiar, right?"

Ziwei Fairy was shocked: "You have that feeling too?"

She thought it was all her own illusion.

Jiang Fan said: "And when I blocked that young man in white for you, it wasn’t my conscious action."

"It was the body’s memory."

Saying this, he frowned: "The only thing I don’t understand is why part of our Nascent Soul Power has disappeared."

"How did this happen?"

Right at this moment.

A calm voice came from Jiang Fan’s chest.

"That’s because you two have returned from Shaking Light City to Kaiyang City over a hundred times."

"That’s how your Nascent Soul Power was consumed."

What?

He has traveled back and forth between Shaking Light City and Kaiyang City over a hundred times?

How is that possible?

He had just come from Shaking Light City, when did he go back and forth?

Jiang Fan took out the mirror and looked at Princess Zi Jiang sitting calmly inside, his eyes flickering:

"Are you saying that we are trapped in a time loop?"

Princess Zi Jiang said calmly: "I know, the time loop here can’t deceive you."

"You will eventually notice."

She paused, and a star pattern resembling a water ripple appeared on her forehead, saying:

"That’s right, there is a powerful figure who forcibly changed the time of the seven cities of the Heavenly Abyss with the Law."

"Bringing the seven cities of the Heavenly Abyss back to the first day of December, and it will keep repeating."

"And you two entered the time loop as soon as you stepped above Shaking Light City."

Jiang Fan was shocked!

This sounded too terrifying.

But precisely because of this, it can explain his and Ziwei Fairy’s impression of familiarity with the surroundings, as well as why a portion of their Nascent Soul Power disappeared.

A cold sweat dripped from Jiang Fan’s forehead.

"How long have we been trapped in this time loop?"

Princess Zi Jiang said indifferently: "Seven days."

"Every two-hour period, the time of the seven cities of the Heavenly Abyss will reverse once."

"You will return to the state when you entered Shaking Light City, then come to Kaiyang City, investigate briefly, and when the time comes, you will reverse back to above Shaking Light City."

"Over and over again, experienced it a hundred times."

Jiang Fan inhaled sharply.

Judging from the consumption of his Nascent Soul Power, seven days is completely accurate.

He had been unknowingly trapped in the seven cities of the Heavenly Abyss for seven whole days!

If he hadn’t been meticulous and noticed all the strange things, wouldn’t he be trapped in the time loop forever?

Princess Zi Jiang pinched her finger: "Time is about to reverse."

"Next time, you may not be able to see through the issues with the timeline."

Jiang Fan’s face changed.

This time it was completely by accident that he saw the almanac on the City Lord Mansion wall, realizing the time issue.

Next time, not necessarily!

What should he do?

He must escape this time loop immediately, or there will be trouble.

However, this is most likely the work of a Sage, how could he break free?

Princess Zi Jiang slowly stood up, the Time Origin Star on her forehead sped up its rotation.

With a gloating tone, she said: "How about we make a deal."

"You let me go, and I’ll use the Time Origin to break this time reversal, granting you freedom."

"How about it?"

She had been waiting for this opportunity.

And now, it finally arrived.

The only one who could break the time reversal is her Time Origin.

Jiang Fan had no other options.

"Dream on!" Jiang Fan refused unequivocally.

He would rather be trapped here with Princess Zi Jiang than let this major threat return.

Princess Zi Jiang shrugged, her golden eyes showing a playful expression.

"I must remind you, that Sage won’t let the time reversal continue indefinitely."

"When he revokes everything, he will certainly take action to silence you."

"Do you have the confidence to survive against a Sage?"

Jiang Fan was alert.

Time is pressing!

But he wouldn’t be coerced by Princess Zi Jiang.

His gaze shifted to Ziwei Fairy, saying: "Ziwei Fairy, I need you to do something so that it might be possible to break the time reversal."

Ziwei Fairy was in a daze.

She was still somewhat bewildered, unable to accept that she had been in a bizarre time reversal for seven days.

Upon hearing this, she blankly said: "You say."

Jiang Fan pointed to himself: "Hit me."

Hmm?

Ziwei Fairy asked in shock: "You want me to hit you?"

Jiang Fan nodded: "Yes, it’s best if you hit hard, and curse at me while hitting."

Since this is caused by a Sage’s Law.

If he activates the Heavenly Eye Sage’s Law.

Would time reversal still exist when the two Laws clash?

Ziwei Fairy shook her head, saying: "For no reason, why would I hit you or curse you?"

Jiang Fan said: "This concerns whether we can break the time reversal."

"If you really can’t bring yourself to hit and curse, then just imagine me as the person you hate the most, that way you can do it."

The person she hates the most?

Ziwei Fairy looked at Jiang Fan in front of her, her gaze gradually becoming complex, then she slowly nodded.

"You’re the one who wanted me to hit!"

"Don’t regret it afterward!"

Jiang Fan said: "Feel free to hit and curse, I absolutely won’t blame you."

Since he said so...

Ziwei Fairy recalled all sorts of things about Jiang Fan, a grudge grew in her heart.

Her fist suddenly clenched tight, filled with the power of the Five Apertures Nascent Soul.

With eyes spitting fire, she swung a punch at Jiang Fan’s chest, shouting angrily:

"Jiang Fan! You bastard!"

Eh?

Jiang Fan was slightly stunned.

Wasn’t it that you’re supposed to pretend I’m the person you hate the most?

Why does it seem like you actually hate me?

But whatever.

The more realistic it is, the better, so it can trigger the Sage’s Engraving.

Indeed!

Just when Ziwei Fairy’s fist was about to hit Jiang Fan’s chest, the Sage’s Engraving activated!

Ziwei Fairy’s eyes, spitting fire, suddenly overflowed with tenderness.

The fist that was swinging at Jiang Fan instead hooked around his neck.

From under the mask, alluring red lips appeared and kissed Jiang Fan’s lips, whispering in a fragrant breath:

"Jiang Fan, I like you, I’ve always always liked you, did you know?"

In the next moment.

Ziwei Fairy returned to her senses.

She was stunned for a moment, then let out an ear-piercing scream:

"Ah! What, what have I done?"

She pushed Jiang Fan away, blushing from her ears to her cheeks, and her eyes were so embarrassed they were about to shed tears.

She couldn’t believe she had hugged and kissed Jiang Fan, and said those embarrassing words!

Jiang Fan, however, paid her no mind, instead looking around.

Crash!

The faint sound of water flowing grew louder and louder, eventually roaring like a torrent.

It was like a river blocked by a dam, when the gate opened, the accumulated torrent gushed forth!

Jiang Fan was overjoyed in his heart.

The time shrouding the seven cities of the Heavenly Abyss was all released.

The seven cities of the Heavenly Abyss were no longer trapped on the first day of December.

But instead synchronized with real time!

As the sound of water intensified, the surrounding space shook, gradually revealing the real scene.

But upon seeing clearly, Jiang Fan was petrified on the spot.
