Supreme Emptiness-Chapter 706: Arrival of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion Master
"Concubine Yunxia, do it."
Jiang Fan lowered his head, smiling bitterly.
Concubine Yunxia watched as the Sky Demon Emperor left.
Tears were already welling up in her eyes.
"Jiang Fan! I’ll take you away!" She supported him.
Jiang Fan waved his hand, sighing deeply, "No need, my cultivation is gone."
"It doesn’t matter where we go now."
Concubine Yunxia felt as if needles pierced her heart.
Without his cultivation, Jiang Fan had lost even the will to live.
A heart like dead ashes!
"You’re a cripple, I’ll take care of you for a lifetime."
"We’ll find a paradise, live as ordinary people, grow old together, turn gray together."
Concubine Yunxia knelt before him, pleading with tears:
"I don’t care about anything, as long as you’re alive."
"I beg you, Jiang Fan."
"I beg you to carry on, don’t die."
"Don’t be foolish."
Jiang Fan’s voice turned hoarse.
His eyes also grew moist.
He was moved by this foolish woman.
"If you take me away, what about your clan?"
"The Sky Demon Emperor will kill them all in revenge for you."
He chuckled lightly.
Took out a horn, and a horsetail whisk.
"Heaven still treats me well."
"Gave me the chance to personally give you a gift."
Concubine Yunxia looked down.
It was the Sky Demon Relic and the Serenity Duster.
One could cleanse the Evil Qi within her, allowing her cultivation to proceed without hindrance.
The other was an opportunity to once more reach the Nascent Soul.
Either one could have made her happy for a long, long time in the past.
But now, not a trace of joy was in her heart.
Only sorrow.
"But I don’t want you dead…"
Tears rolled down from Concubine Yunxia’s eyes.
Jiang Fan gently caressed her cheek with his finger, saying:
"Don’t hold onto false hope."
"Even if I wanted to leave."
"Could I escape the Sky Demon Emperor’s pursuit?"
"It would be futile, dragging you and your clan into this mess."
"Kill me, in exchange for the demon emperor’s trust."
"Afterward, find a safe place and quietly aim for the Demon Emperor Realm."
"In that way, my death would be worth it."
He took out the Purple Sword.
Gazing at the familiar Purple Sword, a hint of reluctance and nostalgia flashed in his eyes.
"This sword, I obtained it at the beginning of my cultivation."
"Today, I end with this sword."
He placed the Purple Sword into Concubine Yunxia’s hand:
"Use this sword to kill me."
"No, no…" Concubine Yunxia shook her head repeatedly, tears streaming down:
"You want me to kill you? How could I bring myself to do it?"
Jiang Fan took her by the shoulders, gently shaking her, weakly saying:
"Listen to me."
"I have no way out."
"Dying by your hand would be a relief."
"When the demon emperor returns and finds you haven’t killed me, he’ll vent his anger on me, torturing me to death."
"Do you want to see such a scene?"
Concubine Yunxia’s body trembled.
She knew the Sky Demon Emperor too well.
He would definitely vent his anger on Jiang Fan.
Torment him cruelly, making his life worse than death.
Killing Jiang Fan now is helping him.
"But I... actually have to... kill the one I love myself..."
She shakily gripped the Purple Sword.
Looking at Jiang Fan, who smiled and slowly closed his eyes.
Her heart felt like it was being pierced by a cold knife, stirring violently within.
The pain made her unable to breathe.
An intense hatred began to rise in her heart.
"Sky Demon Emperor!"
She had never hated anyone before.
Not even the Sky Demon Emperor, blocking her path to becoming a demon emperor, she didn’t hate.
Forcing her into marriage, she also didn’t hate.
But at this moment.
She hated him like never before!
Tightly gripping the Purple Sword.
Eyes filled with hatred:
"Forcing me to kill the one I love!"
"Sky Demon Emperor!"
"I swear to the heavens, I will kill you, I will make you accompany Jiang Fan in death!!!"
Then she raised the Purple Sword.
With a face full of tears, she swung it towards Jiang Fan.
"Jiang Fan!"
"Wait for me to kill the Sky Demon Emperor and come to accompany you!"
A sword descended, cold light scattering in all directions.
The sea waves shimmered under the sun.
Like a fragment of a broken memory.
Each telling a different story from different times.
On the other side of the Vast Sea.
The Little Qilin ran desperately across the sea.
Its fur was dull, with a piece of its ear missing.
Blood continuously flowed out.
It glanced back from time to time.
Its clear eyes filled with hatred.
And full of despair.
It used its spatial abilities to flee with all its might.
But still couldn’t escape the pursuit of the Sky Demon Emperor.
Behind, the silhouette of the Sky Demon Emperor was now visible to the naked eye.
"Master, I’m sorry... sob..."
The master had given it a chance to escape.
But it did not leave as the master instructed.
Soon, it would be caught.
It would die like its master.
Thinking that the master might have already died.
Tears blurred its vision.
Sobbing, it kept its head down, running forward.
Suddenly.
It bumped into a pair of legs.
The round body flipped over several times.
Looking up.
A middle-aged man in a purple-blue robe, with clear features and a faint smile, stood with arms crossed over the sea.
The water beneath him was as calm as a mirror.
No matter how the sea winds blew around.
They couldn’t stir a single ripple.
"Poor little one."
The middle-aged man reached out a hand.
An invisible force wrapped the Little Qilin, lifting it gently.
As his hand lightly brushed over the Little Qilin’s body.
Its dull fur regained its luster at a visible speed.
The bleeding from its ear quickly stopped and healed.
The Little Qilin blinked.
Instinct told it that this person seemed very powerful.
Splashing—
In the distance, waves crashed against the sky.
The figure of the Sky Demon Emperor rushed over.
Upon noticing the Little Qilin in someone’s arms, his expression grew harsh, and he unhesitatingly struck from a distance.
A Nascent Soul Strike, how destructive it was!
An immense tsunami surged over in an instant.
However.
What made the Sky Demon Emperor’s pupils constrict was.
The tsunami split in two.
Sweeping past the man on both sides.
It didn’t affect him in the slightest.
A familiar voice came from that man’s figure.
"Sky Demon Emperor, it’s just a junior, why make such a fuss?"
The Sky Demon Emperor was shocked: "Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion Master!"
"Why are you here?"
The Little Qilin opened its mouth in surprise.
So, the man in the purple-blue robe was the legendary Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion Master!
He had even crossed the continent to arrive here?
The Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion Master smiled slightly: "I heard a junior from the Human Clan was captured by your clan."
"I’m here to take him back; please allow it, Sky Demon Emperor."
The Sky Demon Emperor’s face turned somber: "You came here for Jiang Fan?"
"Then he deserves to die even more!"
To have alarmed the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion Master to come such a long distance to save him!
It showed how much value Jiang Fan held!
Never had it been heard that the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion Master personally came to rescue anyone!
Jiang Fan was the only one!
The Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion Master gently placed the Little Qilin down, smiling with ease: "So, he isn’t dead yet."
"I wasn’t too late."
The Sky Demon Emperor snorted coldly: "That depends on whether you have the ability to take him away!"
With that, purple energy soared into the sky, a giant beast silhouette resembling a Kirin in three parts appeared behind.
The Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion Master nodded slightly: "Very well, last time we didn’t settle it."
Boom—
The Vast Sea tore apart, and the sky quaked.
A battle broke out fiercely between a Demon Emperor and a Nascent Soul over the ocean.
Elsewhere.
The Purple Sword was poised at Jiang Fan’s neck.
The sharp Sword Qi left a bloody line on his neck.
Blood pearls slowly seeped out.
But the sword could not cut down further.
Jiang Fan opened his eyes, puzzled: "Why did you stop?"
Concubine Yunxia looked at her arm holding the sword.
Strands of pink energy flowed from her abdomen, coiling tightly around her arm.
"My hand... it’s out of control."
Huh?
Jiang Fan examined the pink energy, suddenly finding it familiar:
"Is this the force entangled in your body?"
Concubine Yunxia felt it carefully, saying: "Yes."
"The Soul Nourishing Pill a gift from Spirit Sound Priest, after taking it, this force wouldn’t leave my body."
Under normal circumstances.
She would be very alarmed.
Now, her heart felt like dead ashes, and her face bore only sadness.
But soon.
She finally sensed something wrong, and a tint of unbearable color gradually emerged on her face.
She tugged at her collar, breathing slightly rapidly, saying:
"Jiang Fan."
"Why do I feel... so hot."
