Chapter 1465: Chapter 1494: The Black Dragon Venerable Driven Mad

After cultivating for a few days, Jiang Fan’s cultivation reached a state of Perfection.

He walked out of the secret chamber and cupped his hands toward the Golden Scale Venerate: "Congratulations."

Then he approached Ling Shu and handed her a Space Storage Device.

"Inside is black Mysterious Ice, don’t rush, absorb it slowly."

"I look forward to your success in cultivation."

Ling Shu took the Space Storage Device and gently leaned into his embrace.

She knew the time for separation had come.

Tears glistened in her eyes:

"I’ll find you as soon as I finish cultivating."

Jiang Fan smiled softly and stroked her silky long hair, saying: "I’ll wait for you."

Yet, in his heart, he sighed deeply.

He wondered if he would ever see Ling Shu return.

This separation might be forever.

Liu Li’s eyes also reddened, saying: "Jiang Fan, I forbid you from dying at the hands of the Ancient Giants."

"Did you hear me?"

Jiang Fan chuckled: "Alright, Little Princess Liuli."

This former daughter of the Demon Emperor, the unmarried Princess, has finally found her father and a good place to belong.

He could now be at ease.

After kissing Ling Shu’s forehead, Jiang Fan gently released her, saying: "Take care."

Then with a leap, he arrived beside the Golden Scale Venerate.

Before leaving, the Golden Scale Venerate clasped his fists toward the Ice Heart Venerate:

"Ice Heart Venerate, may I ask you to wait for me for half a day? I’ll come back to properly thank you after I see off Jiang Fan."

"This time, I’ve not only troubled the Ice Heart Venerate to help us fend off the Hell Creatures but also asked you to look after Jiang Fan."

"Delaying you for over half a month, I truly feel embarrassed."

The Ice Heart Venerate slowly stood up, brushing off the wrinkles from her skirt, and said calmly:

"No need for formalities, Golden Scale Daoist."

"My journey this time was meant to establish merit and virtue."

"With the Demon Continent in peril, it’s the perfect time for us to establish merit while each gains what they seek."

"It’s just unfortunate that after all the effort, I achieved nothing."

She looked up at the sky, a helpless expression on her face.

The Hell Creatures’ momentum was overwhelming, and she hadn’t managed to completely solve the hidden danger or gain the faith of the Demon Race; consequently, merit was out of the question.

When her gaze swept over to Jiang Fan, she was even more helpless:

"Those wanting to gain merit have accomplished nothing."

"Those unable to gain merit, yet their achievements reach the heavens."

"Ah, this is fate."

If Jiang Fan were among the Heavenly Human Five Declines, the major accomplishments this time would surely earn merit.

But alas, he was still in the Nascent Soul Realm.

Oh?

Jiang Fan showed a hint of surprise, realizing the Ice Heart Venerate was also seeking merit.

Thinking about how the Wutong Venerable’s merit had yet to find a suitable heir, he began to ponder.

In terms of character, the Ice Heart Venerate was simple and upright, worthy of entrusting with merit.

However, Jiang Fan knew far too little about her.

He needed to understand her thoroughly and profoundly.

Why not invite her to visit Taicang State?

But such a high-ranking personage would likely be difficult to invite, wouldn’t it?

With a testing attitude, Jiang Fan asked: "Ice Heart Venerate, if you have some free time, why not come with me to Taicang State?"

"I, a junior, have some matters I’d like to inquire about with you."

The Ice Heart Venerate was slightly stunned.

This fellow is inviting me to Taicang State as a guest?

Thinking of the Telepathy Ring from before, she unhesitatingly rejected: "I appreciate your kindness."

"I have other matters to attend to."

Jiang Fan shrugged helplessly.

Alright, I wanted to evaluate you to give you merit.

If you don’t wish to be evaluated, then fine.

Beside him, the Golden Scale Venerate, for some reason, felt a little comforted.

Jiang Fan finally hit a snag with the Ice Heart Venerate.

Previously, the Ice Heart Venerate had been so attentive to Jiang Fan that he once thought their relationship might be intimate.

This way, his daughter is spared a formidable adversary!

He laughed heartily: "Golden Scale Venerate, wait here, I’ll return shortly!"

With that, he whisked Jiang Fan away with Instantaneous Movement.

As she watched them depart, the Ice Heart Venerate sat down again.

But suddenly, she opened her eyes, an odd expression flooding them:

"Oh no."

"I actually planned to visit Taicang State to seek the Ancient Token."

"Now that I’ve declined Jiang Fan’s invitation, if I go to Taicang State and happen to meet him, how awkward would that be?"

Thinking of this, she regretted refusing too soon.

After a moment of contemplation, she regained her composure.

"It’s alright, Taicang State is vast, it’s not easy to run into Jiang Fan."

"Besides, I only need to stealthily find the one with the Ancient Token; how could Jiang Fan possibly know I’m in Taicang State?"

On the other side.

The Golden Scale Venerate escorted Jiang Fan out of Spiritual Snake Mountain.

In the blink of an eye, behind them was only an endless stretch of primeval forest.

With his speed, a journey to the Qintian Bureau that would take Jiang Fan five to six days, he could achieve in half a day.

And this was because the Golden Scale Venerate was guarding against a sneak attack from the Black Dragon Venerable, thus restraining his movement technique.

Watching as they departed the area of Spiritual Snake Mountain.

Suddenly, the sky darkened.

A gigantic tail crushed the space, carving out lines of void fissures, viciously striking at the duo.

The Golden Scale Venerate wasn’t angry but rather delighted, laughing: "I thought you’d act much farther away."

"Seems you couldn’t wait!"

Having just left the confines of Spiritual Snake Mountain, with the Ice Heart Venerate gone, the Black Dragon Venerable couldn’t wait to make his move.

His intent to kill Jiang Fan was shockingly intense.

The Golden Scale Venerate laughed as he let go of Jiang Fan, a huge shadow of a Flying Snake soared skyward behind him.

In an instant, a terrifying explosion resounded in all directions.

The enormous black tail got blasted away, golden blood splattering.

A shockingly loud sound emerged from the firmament:

"You...you’ve also experienced ancestral return?"

"That’s impossible!"

The Black Dragon Venerable took form, disbelief etched across his face.

He relied on the mysterious Crystal Mine outside the heavens to gain great fortune for ancestral return.

On what grounds did the Golden Scale Venerate achieve it?

At that moment, he saw Jiang Fan.

Recalling Jiang Fan capturing the Ten Thousand Spirits Ancestor Blood, he was instantly both shocked and furious.

"You wretched creature! It’s you again!"

Without doubt, Jiang Fan caught the Ten Thousand Spirits Ancestor Blood and gave it to the Golden Scale Venerate.

This allowed the Golden Scale Venerate to significantly enhance his Bloodline Power!

His anger was beyond words!

This fellow stole his Black Lotus of Tribulation, took his treasure, and yet sponsored his greatest adversary’s ancestral return!

"You deserve death!!!"

The Black Dragon Venerable roared, the Divine Ring behind him vibrated into a terrifying Domain.

Jiang Fan was familiar with this Domain.

It was an extremely dangerous Domain capable of turning people into Puppets!

Fortunately, the Golden Scale Venerate was vastly different from before, his whole body emitting dazzling golden light, like the sun evaporating the sprawling Domain completely.

"Black Dragon, your days of lawless deeds are over!"

The Golden Scale Venerate waved his hand, countless golden little snakes burst forth.

The Black Dragon Venerable angrily roared and counterattacked.

The two Supremes, after their previous encounter in the interlayer world, clashed once again.

Unlike last time when the Golden Scale Venerate was on the defensive, this time, he was on the offensive!

The Black Dragon Venerable was suppressed and forced to retreat step by step!

And what further shocked the Black Dragon Venerable was the rapid advance of the Ice Heart Venerate’s aura from the direction of Spiritual Snake Mountain.

She sensed the tremendous commotion here and was quickly approaching.

The Black Dragon Venerable was both anxious and furious.

He glared at the unharmed Jiang Fan on the ground, eyes filled with towering murderous intent.

"Do you really think the Golden Scale Venerate can protect you?"
