Supreme Emptiness-Chapter 63: You Are the Prodigy I Am Looking For
Jiang Fan’s forehead veins were bulging.
What eighteen-year-old boy could tolerate being called an uncle?
"You’re the one who’s an uncle, you old woman!"
Xu Yining realized that Liu Qingxian had misunderstood something.
She explained: "Senior Sister Liu, our Shadow Guard Team is composed of youth prodigies from Lonely Boat City."
"The oldest among us is no more than eighteen years old."
Hiss!
Liu Qingxian took a breath of cold air and looked at Jiang Fan in disbelief.
Eighteen years old, at the Ninth Layer of Qi Cultivation, and he killed a Foundation Establishment Second Layer alone!
She couldn’t even come close to that when she was his age!
She and Chen Zhengdao had subconsciously thought that No.1 Shadow Guard was so formidable due to years of cultivation and extensive experience.
But he was actually just eighteen.
Wait!
Liu Qingxian suddenly shivered, her eyes burning: "Not long ago, was it you who defeated my, Chen Zhengdao’s, and Yun Tianzhou’s projections on the Dragon-Rising Path?"
Jiang Fan said calmly: "So what if it was?"
Liu Qingxian’s heart pounded wildly.
It was him!
It really was him!
The prodigy of the Dragon-Rising Path!
She was ecstatic: "What you seek is already in front of you, requiring no effort to find!"
"You really made me search hard for you!"
Seeing her alternating between shock and laughter, while muttering incomprehensible words.
Jiang Fan couldn’t help but feel uneasy.
He glanced at Zhu Jianshen to confirm he was completely dead.
Then decisively walked away.
"Wait! Don’t go!" Liu Qingxian hurriedly chased after him.
Her pursuit only made Jiang Fan more anxious.
He decisively executed Solitary Wild Goose Shadow to its extreme, jumping onto the rooftop and then flashing through the streets, disappearing without a trace.
Liu Qingxian chased for a bit but couldn’t catch up.
She couldn’t help but be surprised: "What’s going on? With my cultivation, I couldn’t catch up with him?"
"Did he use a movement technique?"
"Movement techniques are extremely difficult to comprehend, and not many in the Green Cloud Sect have succeeded. Could it be that his comprehension is extraordinary?"
Xu Yining curiously caught up and asked in astonishment: "Senior Sister Liu, why are you chasing him?"
New novel 𝓬hapters are published on ƒreewebɳovel.com.
Liu Qingxian replied: "Deputy Pavilion Master Chen and I have been waiting for him to appear for almost half a month."
"His potential could directly elevate him to the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, with future achievements not inferior to my father’s."
What?
Xu Yining covered her red lips, her beautiful eyes filled with shock.
She knew that No.1 Shadow Guard was extraordinarily talented.
But hearing Liu Qingxian say it, she realized just how extraordinary he was!
The daughter of the Green Cloud Sect Master and the Vice Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion had been waiting for him to appear for half a month.
An uncontrollable admiration surged within her.
"I must thoroughly investigate who No.1 Shadow Guard really is!" Liu Qingxian’s eyes gleamed.
For such a prodigy, she was determined to obtain him.
Xu Yining was also deeply curious about No.1 Shadow Guard’s true identity: "I will help Senior Sister investigate as well."
Soon after.
In the Zhu Mansion.
Sounds of wailing were everywhere, and Zhang Yuxiu was crying her eyes out.
"Shen, my Shen, you died so tragically!"
Beside her squatted a young man she didn’t know.
"Young Master Zhong, you must seek justice for my Shen." Zhang Yuxiu pleaded.
"You are an Inner Sect disciple of the Green Cloud Sect, only you can seek justice for us."
Just a moment ago.
The City Lord Mansion’s soldiers brought back Zhu Jianshen’s body and conveyed the City Lord’s message.
Zhu Jianshen deserved to die, and the matter was resolved.
But Zhang Yuxiu couldn’t just let it go after her son died inexplicably.
It just so happened that the Inner Sect disciple Zhong Qizhen, who had always protected Zhu Jianshen, came to retrieve the Fire Spirit Pearl.
Zhong Qizhen, meticulous as ever, inspected Zhu Jianshen’s body with a solemn expression.
"This person’s swordsmanship is extremely advanced, swift and precise, killing with one strike. It seems Junior Brother Zhu provoked a formidable opponent."
Then he noticed something, Zhu Jianshen’s sleeve had a line of words written in blood.
Despite being crooked.
Upon close inspection, it was identifiable.
"Don’t~ Provoke~ Jiang~ Fan?"
"Who is Jiang Fan?"
Zhong Qizhen asked.
Zhang Yuxiu quickly looked over, perplexed: "Jiang Fan? Xu Family’s son-in-law, a useless person."
"Why would Shen leave a message not to provoke him?"
She couldn’t believe that Jiang Fan had killed her son.
Zhong Qizhen’s eyes flashed with cold light: "It doesn’t matter who he is. Since my Junior Brother mentioned his name before dying, he cannot be unrelated to Junior Brother’s death!"
"Coincidentally, I have to visit the Xu Family to prepare for my master’s arrival."
"I will interrogate this Jiang Fan!"

As for the message "Don’t provoke Jiang Fan," Zhong Qizhen dismissed it entirely.
He was an Inner Sect disciple of the Green Cloud Sect.
Zhu Jianshen was merely an Outer Sect disciple.
The person Zhu Jianshen couldn’t afford to offend, Zhong Qizhen could!
Unaware that he had caught the attention of Zhong Qizhen.
After dealing with the Xu Family’s major threat, Jiang Fan returned to his room calmly, eager to practice the Dragon Seeking Scripture.
As soon as he started this mental method, he sensed its extraordinary nature.
The speed of absorbing Spiritual Energy was more than five times faster than before!
The Spiritual Energy within the Xu Family’s range surged towards him, continuously increasing the Spiritual Power in the Spirit Pond.
However, in the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Advancing in cultivation became much more difficult.
Even with such a powerful mental method, a full day of cultivation only yielded a slight improvement.
At this rate, it would be hard to break through to the Second Layer of Foundation Establishment within a month.
Suddenly, he thought of the Dragon-Rising Path.
It was said that performing well would yield rewards.
Last time, he stopped at the eleventh level.
If he successfully challenged it again, would there be a reward?
Filled with anticipation.
He once again arrived at the Dragon-Rising Path, donned the No.1 Shadow Guard mask, and began the challenge.
First Layer, Second Layer, Third Layer.
...
Eighth Layer, Ninth Layer, Tenth Layer.
When he defeated Yun Tianzhou at the Tenth Layer, he looked relaxed.
Last time, it took hundreds of exchanges.
This time, he managed it in just two or three moves.
He solemnly stepped into the eleventh layer.
The projection was a handsome young man with an elegant demeanor: "Nangong Liuyun, Foundation Establishment First Layer, please instruct me."
The two quickly engaged in battle.
Jiang Fan immediately felt immense pressure.
Both in the Foundation Establishment Realm, he used a Yellow Level high-grade swordsmanship, but even after dozens of moves, they were evenly matched.
The opponent’s battle experience was extremely seasoned, not inferior to his own.
His moves were orderly, showing no flaws.
The cultivation technique practiced was far superior to Jiang Fan’s.
Several times Jiang Fan almost lost.
Fortunately, he relied on the support from his movement technique to continue the fight.
Finally, after two hundred exchanges, he found Nangong Liuyun’s flaw and defeated him with one strike.
Whew—
Jiang Fan dripped with sweat, utterly exhausted.
"What’s going on? The projection at the eleventh layer is ridiculously stronger."
He felt that this opponent was even tougher than the Sub-Altar Master at the Second Layer of Foundation Establishment.
However, the effort was worth it.
As the projection dissipated, a snow-white medicine pill appeared on the ground.
"This is… a Low Grade Foundation Establishment Pill?" Jiang Fan was overjoyed.
This was something unique to the Green Cloud Sect, capable of enhancing the cultivation of martial artists in the Foundation Establishment Realm!
It wasn’t available outside at all!
He immediately swallowed it and began cultivating on the spot.
As the pill entered his stomach, a powerful medicinal force transformed into dense Spiritual Energy, entering the Spirit Pond.
The Spiritual Power inside increased at a visible speed.
When the effect of the pill wore off, his cultivation level had improved by a whole ten percent.
Jiang Fan couldn’t help but marvel: "One Low Grade Foundation Establishment Pill is ten times more effective than a night of hard cultivation."
"If it were a top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill, one would be worth a hundred days of cultivation, right?"
He glanced at the twelfth layer.
Without hesitation, he left.
The eleventh layer was already so challenging, not to mention the twelfth layer.
Coming downstairs, he thought for a moment and murmured: "I’ll prepare some Qi Cultivation Liquid and a mental method for Xu Youran."
Just as he left.
Liu Qingxian and Xu Yining arrived at the site.
Liu Qingxian, feeling her projection break, hurried over.
Xu Yining, looking at the departing figure of No.1 Shadow Guard, lamented: "Too late by a step."
But Liu Qingxian’s eyes sparkled.
"Who is Xu Youran?"
