Jiang Fan muttered to himself about the close call, another moment and this Poison Body would have been broken.
But he saw the Central Tribe Emperor leading a group of Giant Emperors, the Five Sins of Central Earth, and the Netherworld Kings rushing over, their expressions clearly tense.
Seeing Jiang Fan alone, the Netherworld King was surprised, "Brother Jiang, why are you alone? Whereās the Sleeping Emperor?"
Jiang Fan gave a bitter smile and said, "I... I barely escaped here by the skin of my teeth."
"Thank you for your offer, but I dare not stay in the Southern Heavenly Realm any longer."
"Farewell."
Hmm?
The Netherworld King was taken aback but quickly realized what had happened, and angrily said, "The Sleeping Emperor is coveting your treasures?"
He knew all too well what kind of nature the Giant Emperors had.
Seizing the chance while alone with Jiang Yitian, they would naturally target Jiang Fanās remains, especially with many treasures on him.
Jiang Fan sighed and said, "After all the effort to kill Jiang Fan, in the end, someone else got the advantage, and itās someone I risked my life to protect."
"I consider myself unlucky. I canāt provoke you giants, but I can avoid you."
The Central Tribe Emperor frowned, "Netherworld, whatās going on?"
The Netherworld King frowned and said, "The Sleeping Emperor was attacked and nearly killed by the Nine Nether Demon Venerable, and it was Jiang Yitian who used the Void Feather Robe to save him, almost losing his life in the process."
"Unexpectedly, the Sleeping Emperor instead set his sights on Jiang Yitianās treasures."
The Central Tribe Emperor snorted through his nose, and the other Giant Emperors and the Five Sins of Central Earth didnāt seem too surprised.
The Giant Emperors were originally artificially created dark creatures filled with a greedy nature.
Pillaging Jiang Fan was nothing unusual at all.
Qingtian Liuxian showed a trace of doubt and said, "Did the Sleeping Emperor really take Jiang Fanās remains?"
Jiang Fan bitterly smiled, "Senior jokes, the Sleeping Emperor taking something from a junior at the Divinity Transformation Realm, could there be any suspense?"
"Itās a miracle that I am alive."
Qingtian Liuxian still showed doubt and said, "Really? Show me everything you have, I need to check."
Jiang Fan self-deprecatingly laughed, "The Sleeping Emperor searched once, do you also want to search once, Senior?"
"I must have had water in my brain to agree with the Netherworld King to join the Southern Heavenly Realm."
"Didnāt gain any benefit, but was repaid with enmity and searched twice."
"Iāve learned my lesson!"
The named Netherworld King furrowed his brows.
If Jiang Yitian were an ordinary person, no matter how aggrieved, it wasnāt his concern.
But, Jiang Yitian was the person he recruited!
The Sleeping Emperor repaying kindness with enmity, and Qingtian Liuxianās second search, both were slaps on his face.
He cupped his hands, "Central Emperor, the Southern Heavenly Realm is in need of people right now, is this how we should treat those who join us?"
The Central Tribe Emperor gave Jiang Fan a casual glance.
A human at the Heavenly Human Five Declines naturally didnāt catch his attention.
However, he cared a lot about the Netherworld Kingās opinion.
Indifferently said, "Qingtian, weāre all on the same side, donāt make things difficult for him."
Qingtian Liuxian squinted his old eyes and said:
"I just want to check if Jiang Fanās remains are truly lost, if he doesnāt have a guilty conscience, why fear a check?"
Jiang Fanās eyes flickered darkly, the old man was still wary of him.
The veil of illusion of his true form couldnāt withstand the old manās investigation.
With a change of thought, Jiang Fan proactively took off the pouch containing his true form and said, "The junior fears no inspection."
"But Iām too afraid to let Senior examine it, for if something is taken, the junior canāt get it back."
He flashed to the Netherworld Kingās side and said, "Please let the Netherworld King check it."
"I can only trust him for now."
Qingtian Liuxian said indifferently:
"This sage has no interest in a juniorās items, Netherworld King, you do the checking."
The Netherworld King gave Qingtian Liuxian a sideways glance.
The suspicion from Qingtian Liuxian towards someone he recruited made him rather irritated.
He used his pinky to take the pouch, took a glance inside, and found there was a strange corpse.
And indeed, Jiang Fanās physical body was no longer present.
The Netherworld King chuckled, "Such an unnecessary move."
"The Sleeping Emperor made a move to snatch it, how can someone at the Divinity Transformation Realm resist?"
The implication was, it was no longer there.
Qingtian Liuxian averted his gaze, saying no more, and the others, who had no doubts, looked unconcerned.
The Central Tribe Emperor said, "Okay, letās hurry back to the Southern Heavenly Realm."
"The Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis and the Great Wine Sacrifice from Central Earth are attacking, the Void is not a place to linger."
Jiang Fan realized, no wonder the Giant Emperors came rushing back, the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis had come.
And the delay of the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis coming was because the Great Wine Sacrifice was entangling him.
The Netherworld King handed the pouch back, "Here, take it back."
"Moreover, Iāll think of a way to compensate you with something else since the Sleeping Emperor took your stuff."
"Now come with me back to the Southern Heavenly Realm, how about it?"
Jiang Fan took back the pouch, feeling at ease.
He had muddled through.
He showed a hesitant look and said, "Alright, Iāll trust the Netherworld King one last time."
The Netherworld King smiled slightly, reaching out his hand, "Come, follow me back to the Southern Heavenly Realm."
Jiang Fan nodded and leaped onto his palm.
Then, the Central Tribe Emperor casually split open the world barrier of the Southern Heavenly Realm, leading a group of people to step in.
Jiang Fan felt the familiar atmosphere of the Southern Heavenly Realm, with a slight stir in his heart.
This was his fourth time entering the Southern Heavenly Realm.
The spiritual energy in the Southern Heavenly Realm was still as dense, and the nine huge suns still hung in the sky.
Everything was as before.
But just as they stepped in, outside suddenly appeared a huge blood sun rapidly approaching!
The blood light it emitted was apocalyptic, scorching everything around it to ash.
Yet it was not a sun at all.
It was the long spear of the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis!
Noticing Jiang Fan had entered the Southern Heavenly Realm, the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis, unable to arrive in time, threw a spear across the void to annihilate Jiang Fan!
At this moment, the "blood" character on Jiang Fanās true formās forehead broke through the disguise of the Thousand Illusion Sword, becoming brilliantly conspicuous.
Its presence guided the long spearās accurate void-crossing strike.
The Central Tribe Emperor was alarmed as he turned back, surprised, "Why is he attacking us?"
Crack!
The world barrier of the Southern Heavenly Realm showed cracks, and a terrifying long spear penetrated through.
"Retreat!" the Central Tribe Emperor shouted in alarm.
The Netherworld Kingās expression was solemn as he quickly shielded Jiang Fan, retreating behind the Central Tribe Emperor.
The other Giant Emperors and the Five Sins of Central Earth likewise showed horrified expressions.
The mythical ancient evil god was actually making a move against them!
This strike, even if combined, they couldnāt withstand!
Fortunately.
A terrifying aura erupted from the Heavenly Realm.
It came from the easternmost part of the Southern Heavenly Realm, the territory of the Dark Shura Clan.
A resounding and penetrating cold snort echoed, "Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis, youāve gone too far!"
Then, darkness swept over the land, as a giant hand formed from Yin Qi appeared from nowhere, grasping the blood-colored long spear.
It was the legendary Dark Nine Prisons Asura Emperor taking action!
