Chapter 538: Chapter 538: Young Emperor Chapter 538: Chapter 538: Young Emperor The voice was like heavenly might, trembling the galaxy.
The powerful beings outside the hall knelt in fear, one knee pressed to the ground.
âYoung Emperor, calm your anger!â
Inside the ancient palace.
The owner of the Thunder Eyes spoke indifferently:
âFeng Xinnie.â
Whooshâ
A terrifying figure instantaneously appeared before the grand hall.
He stood seven feet tall, his form imposing, a black cloak flapping loudly in the strong wind.
Behind his head, a golden divine halo glowed with a serene light.
The divine halo.
Only those in the Divinity Transformation Realm possessed it!
Upon his appearance, the powerful beings on either side revered and trembled.
None dared to look up.
Feng Xinnie.
Venerate Xinnie.
A formidable figure in the Divinity Transformation Realm.
He knelt on one knee, lowering his head towards the ancient palace.
âYour subordinate is here!â
âAwaiting the Young Emperorâs command.â
Indifference and coldness echoed from within the ancient palace.
âIn a corner of Taicang, someone is cultivating the Void Flow Thunder Force.â
âFind him and kill him.â
Feng Xinnie replied, âYes!â
As he was about to leave.
The Young Emperor spoke again.
âRetrieve the Five Magnetic Yuan Mountain.â
âYes!â
Feng Xinnie turned into an illusion and vanished on the spot.
From the ancient palace came a detached murmur.
âIn this world, only one person is allowed to cultivate the Void Flow Thunder Force.â
âAnd that person is me.â
Boundary Mountain.
Jiang Fan had been cultivating the Void Flow Thunder Force for several more days.
But no further progress was made.
âIt seems I need to comprehend more Thunder Techniques to cultivate more Void Flow Thunder Force.â
Jiang Fan sighed lightly.
But Thunder Path Techniques were not so easy to cultivate.
Whether it was the âThree Pure Thunder Shadowâ or the âHeavenly Thunder Six Parts,â they all required immense power of thunder and lightning to support.
The heavenly tribulations in the sky were absolutely beyond Jiang Fanâs small frame to endure.
Any random heavenly tribulation could completely obliterate him.
He needed items such as the feathers of a Silver Winged Thunderbird, Heavenly Thunder Stones, or Thunderstruck Wood containing residual heavenly thunder.
But these were things that could only be encountered by luck.
âFan, a senior sister is looking for you.â
Liu Qingxianâs call came from the cave entrance.
Jiang Fan had been in bitter cultivation these past few days. Liu Qingxian, having tried out two magic artifacts, dared not stay inside to disturb him.
She had gone to Boundary Mountain to assist various disciples in setting up defenses in preparation for the great battle between the two clans.
Now she suddenly brought someone.
Senior Sister?
Jiang Fan was puzzled. Liu Qingxian knew he was cultivating and wouldnât disturb him unless necessary.
Stepping out of the cave.
His gaze shifted, and he saw a seductive woman in an elegant burgundy dress, her body alluring, her eyes charming and affectionate.
Jiang Fan hurriedly approached and pulled Liu Qingxian away.
Then he thoroughly checked her over.
âWhat are you doing?â
Liu Qingxian was flustered and embarrassed by Jiang Fanâs actions.
Despite her protests, Jiang Fan forcibly checked her whole body. Only after confirming there was nothing wrong did he half-shield her behind himself.
He coldly stared at the woman before him, saying:
âQingxian, stay away from this venomous woman in the future.â
âShe is not a good person!â
The visitor was none other than Wu Manyue.
âJunior Brother Jiang, you wound Senior Sisterâs heart by saying such things.â
âSenior Sister came back from Sunset City just to see you.â
Wu Manyue clutched her ample bosom with her left hand, resting her chin on her right.
She wore an aggrieved expression, looking pitifully charming.
Liu Qingxian was momentarily stunned, then said doubtfully: âFan, is there some misunderstanding between you and Senior Sister Wu?â
âSenior Sister Wu is a good person.â
âShe spared no expense to relay the news, allowing Sunset City to promptly learn about the war at Boundary Mountain.â
Everyone admired Wu Manyueâs dedication.
She sacrificed much to deliver urgent military information.
Few others could do the same.
Jiang Fan snorted.
He had nothing to say about this matter.
But he knew Wu Manyueâs nature well.
âNo matter what she has done, itâs best to stay away from her.â Jiang Fan said.
Liu Qingxian pondered.
Jiang Fan rarely spoke ill of others. If he opposed Wu Manyue, there must be a reason.
She replied without hesitation: âAlright, Iâll be careful.â
Wu Manyue noticed this.
Clicking her tongue, she said: âJunior Brother Jiang sure knows how to sweet-talk girls.â
âThe Nine-Sectâs number one beauty, Junior Sister Liu, obeys you so well.â
âWhatever you say, she believes it.â
Liu Qingxian furrowed her brow: âI donât need Fan to sweet-talk me. I trust his character.â
Is that so?
Wu Manyueâs lips curled into an amused smile.
âI heard Junior Brother Jiang wept sorrowfully, holding Xia Chaoge, at the end of the Boundary Mountain battle.â
âIf he likes you so much, did he ever cry for you?â
Liu Qingxianâs body trembled.
She could hardly believe it.
Jiang Fan wept for another woman?
Bitter sorrow welled up inside her.
She struggled to maintain her composure, saying:
âFanâs feelings for me are genuine. Thatâs enough.â
âStop trying to sow discord.â
Wu Manyueâs enchanting eyes seemed to see through peopleâs hearts.
She laughed: âThen why do you feel sad now?â
Liu Qingxian snapped back: âWho feels sad?â
âCaught, and now angry out of shame?â
âHee hee hee!â
Wu Manyueâs laughter was unending, her chest shaking in arcs as her arms crossed.
Liu Qingxian clenched her fists.
Her eyes burned with anger.
Yet she was powerless to act.
Jiang Fan patted her hand and said calmly: âWhat she said is true.â
What?
Liu Qingxian bit her lip slightly.
A pang of pain pricked her heart.
He could have withheld that.
But then Jiang Fan added:
âBut she only told half the story.â
âXia Chaoge saved me, blocking a fatal blow from the Demon Moon Priest.â
âI thought she had died, hence I was distraught.â
Oh, so thatâs how it was!
Liu Qingxianâs heart cleared up instantly, as if the clouds had parted to reveal the moon.
Jiang Fan was such a kind-hearted person.
Someone died for him; how could he not be sad?
But in Wu Manyueâs truncated description.
It had turned into a romantic entanglement between Jiang Fan and Xia Chaoge!
âYou vicious woman!â
Liu Qingxian exclaimed angrily.
She understood now why Jiang Fan called this woman venomous.
A few words and she was emotionally manipulated.
This person was truly terrifying.
âVicious is as vicious does.â
Wu Manyue shrugged with a smile.
âI was never a good person.â
âBut your man isnât much better than me.â
âYouâd better watch out for him too.â
Still trying to sow discord?
Liu Qingxian fumed, grasping her sword hilt.
Her eyes gleaming coldly.
Jiang Fan waved his hand to stop her.
Wu Manyueâs wicked methods were not something Liu Qingxian could easily counter.
âWu Manyue, you came to find me, not just to sow discord between me and Liu Qingxian, right?â
This woman never wasted time on trivial matters.
Wu Manyueâs smile was as charming as ever, laughing: âJunior Brother Jiang understands me.â
âIf you donât mind, I could be your woman too.â
âSenior Sister has never let a man touch her.â
âConsider it your gain.â
Seeing Jiang Fanâs impassive face, unfazed by her teasing.
She wasnât upset.
âFine, with the Nine-Sectâs number one beauty beside you, the novelty is still fresh.â
âWhen you get tired of her, come find Senior Sister.â
Just as Liu Qingxian was about to lose control and strike this shameless woman.
The womanâs expression suddenly turned serious, saying:
âJunior Brother Jiang, Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion assigned me a task.â
âA special action team has been formed.â
âI hope you can join.â
Jiang Fan refused without hesitation:
âNot interested.â
Teaming up with Wu Manyue meant the greatest danger could be her, not the enemy.
Wu Manyue, unsurprised, said: âBefore you refuse, why not hear the reward for this mission?â
âI believe youâll find it tempting.â
