Chapter 1498: Chapter 1531: Heavenly Human Five Declines

Hmm?

Ice Heart Venerate was stunned for a moment before she realized that she still had the Telepathy Ring on her hand.

She was startled and quickly removed it, saying:

"No, Venerable Lianjing, let me explain."

"Things aren’t as you think..."

Venerable Lianjing had a strange look on her face and muttered, "Did Jiang Fan forcibly put it on you?"

"Do I need to explain?"

The Telepathy Ring is such a famous treasure for companions on Star Mountain; would Ice Heart Venerate not recognize it?

Since she recognizes it, how would she casually wear it?

Even if Jiang Fan really had the ability to put it on Ice Heart Venerate, with her strength, couldn’t she forcibly remove it?

She soon realized and covered her mouth with a light laugh: "Youngsters are just thin-skinned, it seems Godmother came at the wrong time."

"I interrupted you young people’s good time."

Ice Heart Venerate quickly threw the Telepathy Ring to Jiang Fan, saying: "I really have nothing to do with Jiang Fan!"

Jiang Fan caught the Telepathy Ring and hurriedly clarified.

"Godmother thinks too highly of me; how could I have the ability to make a Supreme fall for me?"

"It’s purely a misunderstanding between us."

"Here’s how it happened..."

Upon learning it was a misunderstanding, Venerable Lianjing sighed in disappointment:

"I had even prepared a gift for the daughter-in-law, and you’re telling me it’s a misunderstanding?"

"Such a shame!"

Jiang Fan’s mouth twitched. They haven’t even begun, and you want them to call you mother?

Too hasty, aren’t you?

Ice Heart Venerate frowned slightly: "Venerable Lianjing, aren’t you joking too much?"

Venerable Lianjing glanced at her from the side and snorted: "What’s wrong with a joke? You almost hit my godson, and I haven’t settled that with you yet!"

"Luckily, he wasn’t hurt, or I’d make you pay!"

Upon finding out she wasn’t a daughter-in-law, Venerable Lianjing quickly turned cold-faced.

Ice Heart Venerate was already fuming, and upon hearing this, her eyebrows arched:

"You’re being unreasonable!"

"Jiang Fan clearly stole my undergarment; I didn’t even hold it against him, and you’re blaming me!"

She felt she was already very magnanimous.

If it were any other Great Venerate, would they let Jiang Fan off so easily for stealing their undergarment?

However, what made her angry was.

Venerable Lianjing was standing protectively in front of Jiang Fan, hands on her hips, saying: "What’s with your undergarment?"

"That’s my precious son’s catch from his skills—a wild undergarment!"

Huh?

Ice Heart Venerate couldn’t believe her ears and was so angry her words got tangled:

"Wild, wild undergarment?"

"You’re simply unreasonable!"

Isn’t this Venerable Lianjing too overprotective?

Jiang Fan rubbed his nose.

Having seen those who were sheltered by domineering parents and committed all evils, Jiang Fan used to despise them from the bottom of his heart.

But once he experienced the taste of being a second-generation ancestor.

He finally realized how enjoyable it was to be a second-generation ancestor.

However, he didn’t want Venerable Lianjing to clash with a Heavenly Person Five Declines Venerate for his sake.

Venerable Lianjing would suffer losses.

"Godmother, let’s just let the past be the past."

"I owe her nothing, and she owes me nothing."

Venerable Lianjing turned back and gave Jiang Fan a reassuring smile:

"From now on, no one can bully you!"

"Not even that dog Heavenly Heritage City Lord!"

At the end of her words, the Divine Ring at the back of her head flashed with a Flame Mark.

But it wasn’t just four marks.

It was five whole marks!!!

Ice Heart Venerate’s pupils contracted, exclaiming: "You’ve broken through the Heavenly Person Five Declines?"

How is that possible?

Wasn’t Venerable Lianjing a Heavenly Person Four Declines?

The opportunity to break through to Five Declines is as difficult as ascending to heaven, rarely seen across Central Earth.

Otherwise, even with her son as the Young Emperor, the Supreme of Central Earth, she hasn’t been able to break through the Heavenly Person Five Declines for many years.

Venerable Lianjing wrapped her arm around Jiang Fan’s shoulder, a proud look on her face:

"Of course, because I have a good son!"

Ice Heart Venerate was stunned for a moment, then her heart trembled as she exclaimed:

"You got the Black Lotus of Tribulation’s lotus seed?"

"And you gave it to Venerable Lianjing?"

Only that lotus seed, coveted even by the Black Dragon Venerable, could have such an extraordinary effect.

Jiang Fan was also taken aback for a moment, then revealed a delighted expression, cupping his hands:

"Congratulations to Godmother for stepping into the Heavenly Person Five Declines Realm!"

This is the highest cultivation below the Sage.

Thinking of this, he then took out a portion of Merit, saying: "A small gift, please don’t dislike it, Godmother."

Venerable Lianjing’s pupils contracted: "Merit?"

Looking at the small pinky-sized Merit in Jiang Fan’s palm, she was incredulous.

Searching all over Central Earth, she had only obtained a trace of Merit, yet the amount Jiang Fan casually presented was more than what she acquired with great effort.

"Where did you get this Merit?" Venerable Lianjing asked in surprise.

Jiang Fan said: "It was entrusted by a senior, and this part is for you, Godmother."

"I hope you can accumulate enough Merit soon to Enter the Sage Realm."

As for character, Venerable Lianjing also deserved a portion of Merit.

As for whether Venerable Lianjing would give it to her own son, the Young Emperor, that was beyond Jiang Fan’s control.

Venerable Lianjing’s expression was complicated.

Jiang Fan knew she was seeking Merit for the Young Emperor, yet he still gave it to her.

After a moment of contemplation, she accepted it, saying: "Thank you for the gift, son."

"I will keep it for myself."

Meaning she wouldn’t give it to the Young Emperor.

Ice Heart Venerate observed this and felt envy inside.

No wonder Venerable Lianjing was so protective; Jiang Fan treated Venerable Lianjing so well it made others envious.

Merit, the opportunity for Heavenly Person Five Declines.

Which of these is not a treasure to shake Central Earth?

Seeing the two had much to discuss, Ice Heart Venerate sensibly did not interrupt, saying:

"If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave."

"Wait!" Jiang Fan called after her, saying: "I have a question I’d like to ask Ice Heart Venerate."

"Go ahead."

Jiang Fan showed a puzzled expression, asking: "Why did the Great Venerate take special care of me at Spiritual Snake Mountain?"

That kind of care came so suddenly.

Even Golden Scale Venerate and Little Qilin had the misconception that Ice Heart Venerate was interested in Jiang Fan.

Ice Heart Venerate opened her mouth, intending to reveal the identity of "Flowers in Bloom."

But upon rethinking, she felt it was meaningless.

The Ancient Giant catastrophe will destroy everything; this meeting might be their last.

So, the words on her lips turned to a perfunctory: "You’re overthinking it."

Jiang Fan smiled wryly, wondering if it was just his imagination?

Alright then.

He took out a hundred Space-Time Dust, saying: "Let me give it to you anyway."

Ice Heart Venerate lightly frowned:

"I said, the Merit you gave me is enough; keep the Space-Time Dust for exchanging for more precious resources."

Even though she wanted the Space-Time Dust, she didn’t plan to take advantage of more.

Jiang Fan straightforwardly said: "My cultivation is the Flawless Domain, and to enter Divinity, I must leave no flaws."

"To owe you a favor would be detrimental to my Divinity."

Flawless Domain?

Ice Heart Venerate frowned: "Why would you cultivate such a strange Domain?"

After thinking for a while, she accepted it, saying: "Alright, you owe me nothing now."

"I hope you achieve Divinity soon."

"And I hope you can survive the Ancient Giant catastrophe."

Jiang Fan said: "You too, take care."

Ice Heart Venerate took a deep look at Jiang Fan and instantly moved away.

Shortly after, powerful Space Power surged within the Transmission Hall.

Jiang Fan let out a long sigh of relief; the matter of the undergarment was finally resolved.

However, a rather solemn voice sounded in his ear:

"Why are you walking the Path of Perfection?"

"This path to Divinity is too difficult!"
