Supreme Emptiness-Chapter 264 - Beast Attack
Chapter 264: Chapter 264 Beast Attack Chapter 264: Chapter 264 Beast Attack Jiang Fan stopped.
Compared to Fu Chaohun’s worthless life, his interest in the treasure was naturally greater.
“Tell me, what kind of treasure!”
“Don’t tell me it’s just some crystal stones and pills; I don’t care for that.”
He casually took out a crystal token worth a hundred thousand and waved it in front of her.
Ming Youlian’s expression changed slightly, and she awkwardly withdrew her hand from inside her robe.
She had actually planned to use some ordinary items to get rid of Jiang Fan.
...
Who would have thought Jiang Fan was so wealthy?
It seemed that ordinary items would not move him.
If she wanted to save the chief disciple of the Heavenly Sound Sect, she had to give it her all.
She glanced at Fu Chaohun.
Despite his attempt to abandon her alone on the boat just now,
making her feel deeply disappointed,
he was still the chief disciple of the Heavenly Sound Sect, the future hope of their sect.
So, she could only do her utmost to save him.
Gritting her teeth, painfully and reluctantly, she undid the long wooden box strapped to her back and caressed it one last time.
Seeing this, Fu Chaohun couldn’t help but be shocked: “Great Elder, this… this is your life-bound magical artifact!”
“You’re going to give it to him?”
Selfish as he was, a hint of guilt finally surfaced in his heart.
Jiang Fan’s brow twitched.
The so-called life-bound magical artifact referred to a treasure a strong practitioner relied on, capable of unleashing the majority of their power.
From the literal meaning, one could tell it was immensely powerful.
As Ming Youlian opened the wooden box, a white ancient zither with a classical air came into view.
Each string was as transparent as crystal, evidently made from the tendons of a demon beast in the Core Formation Realm.
The zither body was carved from some unknown ancient wood, engraved with superior runes.
The entire instrument exuded spirit light, emitting an extraordinary aura.
“A top-grade magic artifact!” Jiang Fan was secretly amazed.
Such an artifact was only worthy of the elders and sect masters of the Nine-Sect.
Disciples had no chance of obtaining it.
Ming Youlian, with a face showing intense reluctance, handed it to Jiang Fan:
“I only ask Young Master Jiang to show mercy and spare Fu Chaohun’s life.”
Jiang Fan pondered for a moment and said, “Alright.”
“However, I need you to write a ‘no-compensation gift letter.'”
If it were someone else’s item, he would have just taken it.
But Ming Youlian’s character made him wary.
She was severely injured now and naturally appeared weak.
When her wounds healed, if she claimed Jiang Fan had taken her belongings while she was weak, he would be defenseless.
And she was a Great Elder of the Nine-Sect, while Jiang Fan was just a disciple.
Where would Jiang Fan seek justice then?
“What do you mean?” Ming Youlian’s old eyes widened in anger: “Do you think I, an old woman, would go back on my word?”
In fact, she did have such thoughts in her heart.
If she couldn’t find a better top-grade ancient zither afterward, she would definitely find ways to get the zither back.
She never expected Jiang Fan to be so cautious, guarding against her.
Jiang Fan touched Fu Chaohun’s neck with the tip of his sword: “Just ask if you’ll write it or not.”
Ming Youlian’s eye twitched, and she cursed Jiang Fan inwardly.
With a gloomy face, she reluctantly dipped her arm in blood and wrote a blood letter on the spot.
Only then did Jiang Fan smile.
He took both the ancient zither and the blood letter.
“Are you going to release him now?” Ming Youlian stared at Jiang Fan.
Jiang Fan smiled.
Carrying the ancient zither, he decisively turned around.
But he didn’t put away his sword.
Instead, he looked at Ji Ruyue, who had an uneasy look on her face.
Seeing Jiang Fan walking towards her, she bit her red lips and forced a smile: “Jiang… Junior Brother Jiang.”
“Congratulations on your flawless victory.”
Jiang Fan walked over unhurriedly and said calmly: “Do I have to thank you for revealing my foundation?”
With that, he slashed through the air with his sword.
The powerful sword qi pierced the air, creating a thunderous sound.
Xie Liushu, standing to the side, changed his expression and grabbed Ji Ruyue, leaping into the air.
With a ripping sound—
The horse beneath Ji Ruyue was split in two!
This bloody scene scared Ji Ruyue pale, her delicate body trembling.
Xie Liushu’s expression also changed greatly.
He angrily shouted: “Jiang Fan! What do you mean by this?”
Attacking his people in front of him, the chief disciple of the Desires Sect.
Wasn’t this a slap in his face?
Jiang Fan said coldly: “Isn’t my meaning obvious?”
He stared coldly at Ji Ruyue: “I never argued with you about all your taunting words in the past.”
“But you didn’t repent, became even worse, and now you even disclosed my cultivation technique to the enemy during my fight with a strong adversary!”
“Your heart deserves death!”
Ji Ruyue felt flustered.
She deeply regretted it: If she had known Jiang Fan was so powerful, she wouldn’t have dared to be so reckless, even with a hundred times the courage.
Now, she was in big trouble.
She looked to Xie Liushu for help with a pleading, helpless gaze: “Big Senior Brother, help me.”
Xie Liushu also had a headache.
Who the hell spread the rumor that Jiang Fan was a good-for-nothing with no Spirit Root?
He could already overpower the chief disciple of the Heavenly Sound Sect!
Not much weaker than him either!
Provoking such a strong enemy was troublesome for him as well.
But Ji Ruyue was his junior sister, and as the chief disciple of the Desires Sect, he couldn’t just sit idly by.
Reluctantly, he continued to defend Ji Ruyue, shouting:
“Junior Brother Jiang, Ruyue indeed did something wrong.”
“But she is from my Desires Sect. If there is punishment, it should be decided by our sect elders.”
“If you trust me, I will take her back, and she will receive the punishment she deserves.”
Trust you?
Jiang Fan continued walking towards him with an impassive face, a cold light flickering in his eyes: “What if I don’t trust you?”
Xie Liushu was cornered.
There was no way out.
At this point, he had no choice but to fight!
He glanced at Jiang Fan and the three people behind him, Yi Lianxing and the others.
He then considered his own six-man team.
Calculating the odds, he felt his side had a better chance of winning, so his eyes flashed as he was about to shout.

Suddenly!
Giant waves surged at the pier.
Then a giant blood-red shadow suddenly shot out from the river, biting into the boat that Jiang Fan and the others had boarded.
With a cracking sound.
The boat was bitten off in one large chunk!!!
The remaining half rapidly sank into the unending turbulent waves.
Everyone present was stunned.
“What… what is that?” Xie Liushu was dumbfounded.
Ming Youlian, however, showed fear and urgently shouted: “Chaohun, run! Quickly run!”
Fu Chaohun’s face also turned pale, and he helped Ming Youlian flee wildly inland.
Nobody knew what they were dealing with better than them.
Jiang Fan was also stunned for a moment, then his expression changed dramatically: “It’s an adult Red-Scaled Evil Flood Dragon!”
“Quick! Protect our Thousand-mile Eagle and get us out of here!”
There was no time to care about the pile of Red-Scaled Evil Flood Dragon corpses.
At the very least, they had to secure their mission items.
The three women, Yi Lianxing and the others, reacted.
They quickly mounted their designated horses, swung their whips, and drove their carriages furiously inland.
Jiang Fan followed behind the last carriage, guarding the rear.
Xie Liushu finally reacted, seeing both sects with such expressions. How could he dare to stay?
He hurriedly shouted: “Quick! Retreat!”
However.
They were still a step too late!
