Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 1844: Chapter 1886: An Unexpected Farewell

Ah?

In such a desperate battle in Central Earth, countless people have made great achievements, but only a few have become Sages based on their merits?

In the Hell Realm, one only needs to take his head to exchange for an opportunity?

Not to mention others, even Jiang Fan wanted to cut off his own head for a reward.

Who hates him so much?

"Go, go, go, hurry up and leave."

Jiang Fan shivered slightly, he could already imagine all the strong beings in the Hell Realm heading towards Fengdu City.

The three of them bid farewell to the Fengdu Domain Lord, and as soon as they left the Bone Hall, they saw that the outside was already packed with people.

Countless Asuras from various tribes were all swarming outside the Bone Hall.

The Buddha Lord and twelve Buddha Venerates were using Buddhist Law to form a Buddha Formation, keeping them at bay.

It turned out those who sought to attack him had long arrived, but it was the Buddha Venerates who blocked them.

As soon as Jiang Fan appeared, the crowd became visibly excited.

They threw eggs, stones, vegetable leaves, and even underpants.

Jiang Fan sneered and said:

"It was your Hell Realm that started the war, and you blame others for losing!"

"So weak and yet loves to play."

These words completely ignited their anger.

Numerous attacks came like raindrops, and the Buddha Formation flickered with light.

The Buddha Lord smiled wryly and said, "Martial uncle, I will send you back to Central Earth."

With a wave of his Kasaya, a burst of Buddha Light swept the three of them into phantoms that disappeared.

Not long after.

They arrived in front of the World Attic.

Jiang Fan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you, martial nephew, for escorting us all the way."

The Buddha Lord said, "Martial uncle, please enter quickly, so as to avoid complications."

Many were pursuing Jiang Fan, not only the Six Sons of Hell but also several renowned Asura Emperors, and even two Domain Lords.

The upheaval caused by the Central Earth Treaty in the Hell Realm was beyond imagination.

For thousands of years, the Hell Realm had never suffered such a great humiliation, thus the crowd’s excitement and anger.

Moreover, with a Boundary Master secretly stirring things up, the situation became uncontrollable within a single day.

Jiang Fan also sensed the urgency, holding the hands of the two women as they soared towards the Attic World.

But.

His hands suddenly felt empty.

Turning his head, he saw that Xu Youran and Yue Mingzhu remained in place!

Jiang Fan was stunned: "You two..."

Xu Youran and Yue Mingzhu exchanged a glance, both seeing the surprise in each other’s eyes.

Xu Youran withdrew her gaze, lowered her head and said softly:

"Husband, I’ve escorted you this far."

"We’ll meet again if fate allows."

Jiang Fan was stunned and said, "Youran, what are you saying?"

When Xu Youran lifted her head again, her eyes were filled with tears as she said:

"I must stay in the Hell Realm, as only here do I have a chance to change your fate."

Jiang Fan was shocked, then his face darkened as he grabbed her hand and said, "I don’t want you to do anything for me."

"Come back to Central Earth with me!"

Xu Youran shook her head, tears flowing as she said: "Go back to watch you die quietly?"

"I practice the Asura system, only in the Hell Realm can I become stronger and change your fate."

"No!" Jiang Fan said forcefully, pulling her towards the Attic World Device.

Xu Youran’s tears fell, but recalling what she had seen in her mind, her gaze became resolute:

"In that case, I’ll tell you the future I saw, and you’ll have to find a way to deal with it!"

"I saw that your future is..."

Rumble——

Heavenly Thunder rumbled, and that terrifying forbidden power attacked again.

Xu Youran groaned, spitting out a mouthful of black blood, interrupting her words.

Jiang Fan’s expression changed drastically, and he quickly stopped her: "Don’t say any more!"

Xu Youran wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth: "Then let me stay."

"I know I’m not your favorite, not as beautiful as Yun Shang, not as bright and lively as Yue Mingzhu, nor as uniquely elegant as True Words."

"But from the moment you said you would marry me and protect me, you were the only one in my heart."

"When you’re well, I’m with you; when you’re not, I’m still with you."

"If you love me, I’m happy; if you love another girl, I’m understanding."

"Where your heart goes, I follow."

"For you, I’m willing to do anything..."

Jiang Fan’s body trembled slightly, guilt overwhelmed him, leaving him breathless.

Back then, he said he would marry Youran and protect her.

Did he fulfill those promises?

Even upon reaching Divinity Transformation, he hadn’t thought of fulfilling the promise of marriage.

Throughout the journey, he had never protected her.

Instead, she had silently accompanied him the entire time.

From Lonely Boat City to Green Cloud Sect, from Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion to the underground world, she ended up alone in the underground.

He had grown so accustomed to Xu Youran’s presence that he took it all for granted.

Now, facing losing her, he was suddenly awakened.

He had given too little...too little to this woman.

And the debt, too much...too much...

Jiang Fan’s eyes reddened, his vision blurred with tears, even the woman’s figure before him became indistinct.

He tightly embraced her, saying: "Youran!"

Xu Youran’s tears fell like rain, as she said: "Let me stay behind."

"Please allow me to be absent from your side, and once I’ve changed your fate, I’ll return."

"Okay?"

Jiang Fan’s heart ached, and after a long struggle, he silently took out five Asura Holy Blood beads and placed them in her hand.

"Take them...protect yourself."

Xu Youran nodded repeatedly, tears flowing freely: "Alright, husband!"

Yue Mingzhu quietly watched by the side, feeling indescribable emotions.

After they embraced for a long time, she eventually cleared her throat and said: "You’re acting like this is a final farewell."

"The gates between the Hell Realm and Central Earth aren’t closed, can’t you visit each other whenever you want?"

"Everyone just keeps feeding me dog food."

Jiang Fan and Xu Youran adjusted their emotions, each wiping away their tears.

Indeed, relations between the two realms were no longer as before.

Jiang Fan found it inconvenient to come to the Hell Realm, but Xu Youran could return to Central Earth at any time.

Jiang Fan looked at Yue Mingzhu and asked: "What about you? Are you leaving too? Where will you go?"

Yue Mingzhu raised her eyes to the worlds beyond and said: "I saw a world beyond the heavens in the Ancient Buddha Mirror."

"I must go there, to find a chance to change your fate."

Jiang Fan asked: "What if I wish to keep you?"

Yue Mingzhu put her hands on her hips, spiritedly said: "Can’t bear to let me go? Then beg me, if you beg me, I won’t leave, hee hee."

Jiang Fan stepped forward and embraced her: "Beg you not to..."

Yue Mingzhu covered his mouth, the smile on her face faded, replaced by sadness: "Why are you really begging?"

"You’re Jiang Fan, the first of the Nine Steles, the hero of Central Earth..."

"How can you beg a woman not to leave..."

As she spoke, her suppressed emotions turned into tears, sobbing:

"Can’t you just let me leave with a smile? Must you make me cry...Liu Qingxian will laugh at me for being pretentious again!"

"You bad man! Rotten man! How much captivating potion did you give me to willingly suffer your torment!"

Jiang Fan laughed and said: "Will you still leave?"

Yue Mingzhu wiped away her tears, stomped her foot, and said: "Of course, I will!"

She shot a sideways glance at Xu Youran:

"I absolutely won’t lose to another woman!"

"I want to compete with her to see who can change our husband’s fate against heaven, so I won’t constantly be pressured by the title of the main wife, hmph!"

Jiang Fan sighed softly.

He rummaged inside a Heavenly Thunder Stone, looking for something to give Yue Mingzhu.

But she shook her head, saying: "I’ve inherited my master’s relics, and lack nothing."

"If you really want to give me something, just close your eyes."
