Chapter 1593: Chapter 1631: Red Demon Venerable

In the secret chamber.

A brand-new skirt hovered in mid-air, slowly rotating.

The skirt was brightly colored and dazzling, in line with Gu Xin’er’s usual style.

The difference was.

The front of this new skirt was embroidered with a large "Front" character.

The back of the skirt was embroidered with a large "Back" character.

It’s worth mentioning that these were embroidered in Hell Language.

Gu Xin’er said with satisfaction, "Now those blind giants won’t mistake my front from my back anymore, right?"

The remnant soul of the old woman inside her body, a vein bulging on her forehead:

"Why are you still competing with the giants?"

Gu Xin’er snorted, "Not only will I compete, I’ll send them all to the eighteenth level of Hell."

"Then wish them reincarnating into the Beast Path, becoming cattle, pigs, sheep, and dogs in their next life!"

The remnant soul of the old woman rubbed her brow.

Her small chest was Gu Xin’er’s reverse scale, and the last person who mentioned it was already tracked in a full ledger.

Now she’s started a second one.

Suddenly, the remnant soul of the old woman raised an eyebrow, gazing downward.

Slightly startled, she sighed faintly: "I knew you had long suspected my existence."

"Come out and speak."

Eh?

Gu Xin’er was taken aback, "Master, who are you talking to?"

Under her watchful eyes, the ground turned to liquid, like a swamp.

A humanoid figure wrapped in mud and sand emerged from underground, surrounded by the Origin Power of Earth.

With a shake of its form, the mud and sand flew off, revealing Jiang Fan’s true body.

He gazed at the floating half Nine Phoenix Chao Dao hairpin on Gu Xin’er’s chest, smiling:

"Senior, such strong perception, even the No-Self Dust-Cleansing Technique couldn’t deceive you."

"It seems, you are undoubtedly the other half of the Twin Sage’s soul."

This remnant soul resided within Gu Xin’er, never contacting anyone in the current world.

Clearly, she was wary of the outside.

Thus, had Jiang Fan revealed himself, declaring a wish to see her, she likely wouldn’t have dared to reveal herself.

He had to hide in the shadows, waiting for her to appear on her own.

Gu Xin’er’s heart skipped a beat, hastily covering up, "What... what are you talking about?"

"My master isn’t a remnant soul of the Twin Sage, you’re mistaken."

The remnant soul of the old woman waved her hand, calmly, "No need to hide."

"He’s long guessed my identity."

Last time, when Jiang Fan opposed Wu Gou Venerable in the sky above Hunyuan State, Gu Xin’er recounted the relationship between the Twin Sage, Wu Gou Venerable, and Red Demon Venerable.

Understanding events from a thousand years ago so clearly, plus Gu Xin’er’s mysterious nature.

It wasn’t hard to guess that Red Demon Venerable’s remnant soul was instructing Gu Xin’er.

Red Demon Venerable looked complexly at Jiang Fan, "The mid-stage Core Formation junior back then has now become a person of great influence in Central Earth."

"In the prime era of Central Earth a thousand years ago, you’d stand out."

Initially, thinking Jiang Fan was cautious and methodical, she had Gu Xin’er stay by his side to learn survival skills.

Unexpectedly, the junior grew to an extent that even left her speechless in such a short time.

Jiang Fan cupped his hands, "Red Demon Senior overrates me."

"The survival of Taicang State is at stake, this junior earnestly requests Senior’s assistance."

Red Demon Venerable had already guessed Jiang Fan’s purpose.

At the crucial moment of battle, Jiang Fan, absent from the front line, returned to the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion seeking her.

It was naturally due to encountering unmanageable dangers, hoping for her help.

She sighed, "Had I been able to help, I’d have done so already."

"But as a mere remnant soul, my heart desires, yet I lack the ability."

Jiang Fan smiled faintly, taking out a coffin.

It was sealed tightly, yet couldn’t contain the Vast Energy continuously leaking out.

Red Demon Venerable sensed it, a wisp of her mist-like remnant soul floated out from the hairpin, forming an elderly woman.

Her withered, aged eyes glistened, she quickly flew to the coffin, exclaiming, "This... this is our Confucian body!"

"Back when I was chased by the Giant Emperor, my body was destroyed, my soul severely injured, fortunately leaving a wisp in the human world."

"Unexpectedly, I can see the Confucian body again."

Now, the demon body controlled by Wu Gou Venerable has been destroyed.

The Confucian body before her was the best target for possession.

Jiang Fan opened the coffin, revealing the body of a graceful woman in her forties lying within.

Clad in a white robe, radiating an unparalleled Vast Energy.

Even Xingyuan Venerable’s Vast Energy, cultivated over years, wasn’t as abundant as in this body.

As it was a figure akin to the progenitor level in Confucianism.

The Jiangshan First-class Building Owner became a great Confucian scholar just through the legacy left on this body.

Red Demon Venerable’s remnant soul’s eyes gleamed with joy, "The body is so intact?"

"Wasn’t it destroyed back then?"

Jiang Fan truthfully said, "In all honesty, this was found by the Jiangshan First-class Building Owner, who likely restored the body later."

Red Demon Venerable’s remnant soul realized, "It was him, then!"

"No wonder he knew the Confucian paper puppet technique, it’s because he found the Confucian body."

"Given his commercial empire, finding resources to restore a Confucian body was only natural."

Jiang Fan looked at the intact Confucian body, cupping his hands:

"This junior returns the Confucian body to its rightful owner."

"I earnestly request Senior to emerge once more for a battle."

Red Demon Venerable’s remnant soul gazed at the familiar body, reminiscing as if back a thousand years.

Her dried eyes reignited with fighting spirit.

"With my battle body returned, how can I continue to cower?"

"I’ll possess and be reborn, fighting alongside you!"

She transformed into a soul light, ready to enter the Confucian body.

"Senior, wait!" Jiang Fan, after a brief contemplation, halted her, solemnly asked, "Dare I ask, after possession reincarnation, what cultivation would you achieve?"

This was most crucial.

If it didn’t reach Heavenly Human Five Declines, it would be of no use going.

Red Demon Venerable’s remnant soul assessed, "Not comparable to Wu Gou Venerable."

"He reincarnated much earlier, his cultivation has recovered significantly."

"I have eked out an existence, this wisp of soul barely sustaining after not too many years."

"After possession, it would not surpass Heavenly Human Three Decline."

What?

Jiang Fan’s heart sank.

Red Demon Venerable was the greatest trump card he could think of.

Yet, she couldn’t achieve the desired power.

With gritted teeth, he produced a whole jug of Law Wine, saying, "And if you had this wine?"

"What? Law Wine? Where did you get it?"

Red Demon Venerable’s eyes widened, a shocked gasp escaping her, more surprised than upon seeing the Confucian body.

This was something that, a thousand years ago, only certain people could brew!

Seeing a ray of hope, Jiang Fan’s heart reignited, asking, "If Senior drinks this wine, to what extent can you recover?"

Red Demon Venerable replied, "Of course, to full power!"

"Such an amount of Law Wine, even a genuine sage’s remnant soul, could be restored to peak."

"Let alone, I’m but a half of a sage’s soul."

"If my soul fully recovers, and I then possess, I could reach the Heavenly Person Five Declines Realm."

The Confucian body, as half a sage split from, had power far surpassing that of an ordinary Venerate.

Possession rebirth now would effortlessly make her a typical Heavenly Human Five Declines Venerate.

Jiang Fan’s breath quickened, his face filled with delight.

Initially, he predicted, if Red Demon Venerable recovered to a weakened state of Heavenly Human Five Declines, they’d have a chance to turn the tide.

Now, she could potentially return as a complete Red Demon Venerable!

Not winning this battle would defy the heavens!

However, Red Demon Venerable’s remnant soul frowned, asking:

"Is time pressing?"
