Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 1414: Chapter 1436: Flirting with an Ancient God

Indeed.

The Compassionate Sage shifted his gaze once more to Jiang Fan, saying coldly:

"Don’t think the Great Wine Sacrifice is here to save you."

"You have harmed the Half-Giants, and that is an affront to justice!"

Jiang Fan sneered, "You should be thankful that this world lacks justice!"

"If there were any semblance of justice, an old thief like you, who has sheltered Half-Giants causing havoc for millennia, would have long been thrown into the eighteen layers of purgatory!"

The Half-Giants are evil, but even more so is the Compassionate Sage who shelters them!

A person like this dares to call himself ’Compassionate.’

He truly sullies the term.

The sky trembled, sending a shockwave through the atmosphere that made everyone shiver.

Jiang Fan had really angered the Compassionate Sage.

However.

A shadow flashed beside Jiang Fan, and the Great Wine Sacrifice, dressed in a dark green gown, appeared.

She grabbed Jiang Fan’s sleeve, crying as if her heart were breaking, "Jiang Fan, you’re so young; it’s a shame for you to die, boohoo."

While appearing to weep, she invisibly blocked the impending threat from the heavens.

The voice of the Compassionate Sage was sinister: "Great Wine Sacrifice!!"

"Are you really going to oppose me?"

The Great Wine Sacrifice kept crying, without saying a word.

Yet she stood by Jiang Fan’s side, showing no intention of leaving.

The meaning was obvious.

The Compassionate Sage said coldly, "Fine! Let’s see if you’ve reached that level!"

A massive power emanating from rules spread out, engulfing the entire Heavenly Heritage City.

His desire to kill Jiang Fan only intensified!

How dare Jiang Fan kill the Half-Giant he had protected, right before his eyes?

If Jiang Fan doesn’t pay the price, how will the Half-Giants view their protector?

Crackle!

But at that moment.

A Thunderbolt struck from the heavens without warning.

A scream echoed from the sky.

The Great Wine Sacrifice abruptly raised her head, her eyes filled with surprise and doubt.

Then, she seemed to hear something, her demeanor shifting from crying to nodding vigorously like a pecking chick.

A moment later.

The overwhelming pressure from the Compassionate Sage dissipated like clouds and smoke.

The Great Wine Sacrifice let out a long sigh, standing tall again, wiping the cold sweat from her forehead, muttering:

"Haven’t shown up in hundreds of years, suddenly speaking out like that, trying to scare people to death!"

The faces of Star Mountain Lord and Forgetful Wild Elder changed.

Someone capable of demanding such respect from the Great Wine Sacrifice, not even a Sage could do!

There’s only one kind of person!

That is, an Ancient Saint!

This affair has surprisingly caught the attention of an Ancient Saint!

Forgetful Wild Elder no longer dared show his drunkenness, cautiously asking, "Great Wine Sacrifice, has that presence manifested?"

The Great Wine Sacrifice slightly nodded.

Gasp!

It’s truly an Ancient Saint!

The old face of Forgetful Wild Elder twitched, probing, "Could there be any divine will imparted?"

The Great Wine Sacrifice looked up at the sky, then pondered before saying, "He said three sentences."

"The first sentence was to the Compassionate Sage, saying if his strength is restored, he should go outside the world, not stay confined to Central Earth."

"The second sentence was about asking me to arrange people to go to the Demon Continent, where changes have occurred and strong individuals are needed for assistance."

"The third sentence..."

The Great Wine Sacrifice cast a slightly odd look at Jiang Fan and said, "It was addressed to Jiang Fan."

"He said to let this dog also go to the Demon Continent."

Jiang Fan was contemplating the first two sentences.

He had wondered before, as Heavenly Eye Sage had mentioned, all Sages had gone to a more significant battlefield outside the world.

Why was there still a Compassionate Sage in Returning Ruins State?

Listening to the Ancient Saint’s words, he vaguely discerned that the Compassionate Sage might be having physical issues, using an excuse to stay in Central Earth.

It seemed the Compassionate Sage’s display of power had displeased the Ancient Saint.

The second sentence, however, didn’t surprise Jiang Fan much.

Even in Hunyuan State, Jiang Fan knew that Xingyuan Venerable had stayed for a long time in the Demon Continent due to urgent matters.

Could it relate to the same issue?

But the third sentence unsettled him.

This Ancient Saint is likely the foul-mouthed one from Taicang State, isn’t she?

What a guy, what have I done to provoke her again!

In the past, she often zapped me with little bolts; now she’s directly calling me a dog!

His forehead throbbed with veins, muttering:

"Dog woman, I’ve said I’d pin you down one day and beat your backside raw!"

"Just you wait!"

As soon as he finished speaking.

Rumble!

Several Thunderbolts struck him.

Jiang Fan was immediately convulsed by the shock.

Fortunately, his ’Heavenly Thunder Six Parts’ had reached Great Success, and all the Thunderbolts striking his body were absorbed into his Heavenly Abyss Heart.

Without even a trace of embarrassment.

He smiled smugly, "Is that all? Are you weak-handed? Just these few Thunderbolts?"

The sky fell silent, with no further movement.

It seemed the Ancient Saint had departed.

Jiang Fan patted the scorched clothes, muttering, "Ran away again!"

He was already accustomed to it.

In memory, whenever he inadvertently provoked her, she would appear and strike him with lightning.

This time was no different.

Just as Jiang Fan was busy patting the soot off himself.

The void behind him suddenly split open.

A jade foot clad in an embroidered shoe emerged from the crack, kicking Jiang Fan’s rear.

Ouch!

Jiang Fan was caught off guard, stumbled forward nearly face-first!

When he turned to look, the void behind him had returned to normal.

Only a small, clear footprint remained on Jiang Fan’s behind.

Jiang Fan was both angry and annoyed, shouting, "Foul woman!"

"Are you on the wrong medicine this time?"

Previously, no matter how he cursed, the woman used to ignore him, didn’t she?

Why did she give him a kick this time?

He got up, rubbing his swollen red posterior, muttering, "Kicking with such strength!"

While muttering.

He suddenly realized something’s wrong with the atmosphere around him.

The whole place was dead silent.

Be it the Great Wine Sacrifice, Star Mountain Lord, or Forgetful Wild Elder.

Even the Heavenly Heritage City Lord and the crowd of Half-Giants.

They were all wide-eyed and gawking at Jiang Fan, as if they’d seen a ghost.

They could hardly believe their eyes!

The Ancient Saint actually responded to Jiang Fan’s curses?

Over the past ten thousand years, many have cursed at the Ancient Saints, but which Ancient Saint has ever responded?

What made their scalp tingle was that the Ancient Saint not only sent Thunderbolts in response to Jiang Fan but also appeared, kicking Jiang Fan!

Since the founding of the Central Earth Realm, the nine Ancient Saints had vanished without a trace.

Now, for the sake of kicking Jiang Fan, an appearance was made!

Moreover, they felt an unbelievable sensation.

The atmosphere between Jiang Fan and the Ancient Saint resembled a playful banter?

Thinking this, they all shook their heads, shivering to erase the absurd thought.

No way, absolutely impossible!

It must be their delusion!

The Great Wine Sacrifice glanced meaningfully at Jiang Fan, saying, "Since the Ancient Saint wants you to go to the Demon Continent."

"You should accompany me back to the Qintian Bureau."

Jiang Fan shook his hand, seriously saying, "Please wait."

"Allow me to first perform the rites for the souls of Kaiyang City."

He raised a hand, summoning the Nine Dragon Demon Tripod from afar.

He retrieved the Black Buddha Scripture from within, flew to the sky over Kaiyang City, and unfurled the scripture.
