Chapter 2147: Chapter 2191: The Surprise Attack

Tian Ge’s expression changed slightly. Once this baby is born, it will have the ability to burrow through an entire world.

Comparable to Jiang Fan’s Heart of Ten Thousand Earths.

At that time no one will be able to catch him!

"Forget Jiang Fan, shatter the womb, don’t let him be born!"

With an order given, the Three Prisons Asura Emperor, who had been ready to die together with Jiang Fan, turned and pounced toward the red willow tree.

The Five Prisons Asura Emperor and the other two Asura Emperors also lunged over in haste.

The two Wood Emperors exchanged a glance, let out determined howls, and the leaves on their foreheads exploded at the same time.

Green energy gave birth to countless branches crisscrossing and intertwining, weaving into a boundless wall of trees that cut the two sides off from each other.

Its top extended up to the sky canopy, its roots drove down into the yellow earth.

Having lost their leaves, the two Wood Emperors collapsed in unison, the focus in their eyes rapidly fading.

Jiang Fan’s heart trembled. For the sake of a single infant, two Wood Emperors were actually imitating the Nine-leaf Wood Emperor, using their own lives to fight for a sliver of hope for the baby’s birth.

Crack!

The tree wall suddenly shuddered and split—it was Tian Ge and the others making a move.

Jiang Fan’s mind snapped back; he grabbed the Heart of Ten Thousand Earths with one hand and the willow tree with the other, saying, "Come with me!"

However, what Jiang Fan didn’t expect was that the Heart of Ten Thousand Earths actually couldn’t carry the willow tree away.

As the willow’s branches swayed lightly, a soft voice sounded in his mind.

"Benefactor, don’t worry about us mother and child anymore, you... go save yourself."

"Treat your own child well."

Hearing the first half of the sentence, Jiang Fan felt nothing, but upon hearing the latter half he finally understood: this red willow tree had the ability to listen in on human thoughts.

Because he had only thought in his mind just now about accumulating a bit of virtue for his own child; he hadn’t spoken it aloud.

He gazed at the tree wall that was about to shatter, and spoke without looking back:

"Since you know, then stop nagging. Give birth in peace, leave everything else to me!"

His thoughts stirred, and the Immortal King’s Undying Bell was summoned.

The Little Artifact Spirit excitedly stuck out its head: "Good man, do you want me to protect you?"

Jiang Fan said calmly, "No need. Just protect the mother and child."

At this moment, Jiang Fan himself didn’t know why he was being so reckless.

The Immortal King’s Undying Bell was his only Life-saving Talisman against the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis.

Yet he was actually using it for a mother and child he had never met.

Perhaps it was the radiance of becoming a father soon, or perhaps it was those Wood Emperors paving the way for their descendants one after another that made him feel a sense of déjà vu.

The Little Artifact Spirit blinked, somewhat puzzled.

Jiang Fan was actually using his last chance to protect someone else.

After pausing for a moment, it still obeyed, sheltering that red willow tree beneath the Immortal King’s Undying Bell.

With this bell here, that baby had enough protection to be successfully born.

As for him...

Crack——

Boom!

The tree wall shattered, and the Five Prisons Asura Emperor led three Asura Emperors and Tian Ge, stepping through the rift.

The suffocating aura of terror made even the air viscous.

The Five Prisons Asura Emperor wanted to attack the Immortal King’s Undying Bell, but Tian Ge gave a long sigh: "No need to waste the effort."

"That’s his strongest Defensive Magical Treasure, and it’s already restored to its peak."

"Even if you all attack together, you can’t do a thing to it."

The Five Prisons Asura Emperor refused to accept this. Silk threads sprayed out from the vortex at his forehead, wrapping around the Immortal King’s Undying Bell.

Before the Cause and Effect Silk Thread could exert its power, it was completely absorbed by the Immortal King’s Undying Bell.

The Five Prisons Asura Emperor groaned, a trickle of fresh blood spilling from the corner of his mouth. He glared at Jiang Fan indignantly:

"Damn thing! You seek death, so we’ll grant it to you!"

The five vortices at his forehead surged with sky-covering Cause and Effect Silk Threads, filled with ultimate fury.

The other three Asura Emperors also radiated killing intent that shook the heavens.

They were on the verge of success, yet at the final moment Jiang Fan had ruined everything!

They too unleashed annihilating power of Cause and Effect!

Tian Ge said indifferently, "To hand your life-preserving object to someone else for people unrelated to you—is it worth it?"

"I don’t understand what meaning you people of Central Earth find in your benevolence."

"Aside from giving you weaknesses, it has no use at all."

Jiang Fan looked at the sky-like torrent of Cause and Effect power and quietly took out the Mystic Sky Battle Armor, putting it on.

Then he drew out the large golden iron staff.

He said evenly, "I don’t understand either, but I still did it."

"Perhaps some people from Central Earth subtly influenced me."

His eyes were filled with absolute resolve.

Before the baby was born, he could not take a single step away.

Yet even with the Mystic Sky Battle Armor, how could he possibly withstand the combined strike of four Asura Emperors?

Just as he raised the great iron staff, preparing to fight with all his strength—

Several auras of Alien Race Sages descended upon this region of heaven and earth.

Immediately after, the Butterfly Fairy, the Wuxiang Sage, the Black-skirted Old Lady, and three Sages manifested from illusion into reality above.

The Butterfly Fairy instantly noticed Jiang Fan’s peril and called out anxiously, "Inspector!"

The Black-skirted Old Lady tapped her toe, and the world-ending flood of Cause and Effect power was all shaken apart!

Her cultivation was actually above that of the Five Prisons Asura Emperor!

The four Asura Emperors’ bodies trembled in unison, shock appearing on their faces.

Tian Ge simply gave a light sigh and said, "Let’s go. This operation has failed."

The Five Prisons Asura Emperor didn’t dare hesitate; he decisively tore open the world’s barrier and took Tian Ge, stepping into the Void.

The Wuxiang Sage said viciously, "Where did these Asura Emperors come from? You’re the ones who took the World Embryo?"

"None of you are leaving!"

He charged out first, and the other Sages of the Dead Sound Pirates followed close behind.

The Butterfly Fairy rushed out last. Just before leaving the Void, she turned her head to look at the Immortal King’s Undying Bell, then stepped out and said:

"Wang Chongxiao, take care."

And then vanished into the boundless Void.

Thus, a calamity came to an end.

Jiang Fan let out a slight breath of relief, when suddenly a faint crying sound reached his ears.

He hurriedly moved away the Immortal King’s Undying Bell.

The red willow tree had already disappeared, replaced by a pale-faced young woman in a red dress, tears on her face, yet with a bitter smile as well.

She was cradling a baby covered in vein-like patterns, lying weakly on the ground.

Blood was continuously flowing between her legs.

Jiang Fan said nothing, using the Second Domain to give her a simple treatment.

Only then did the young woman feel slightly better.

She lowered her head and looked at her husband, who had been completely burned into charcoal, his hand pressed against her abdomen.

Tears streamed down the young woman’s face like rain as she sobbed silently.

Jiang Fan couldn’t bear to look, so he put away the Immortal King’s Undying Bell and turned around, saying, "Hurry and leave."

"If you end up in those pirates’ hands, you and your child won’t fare much better than if you fell into the hands of the Asura Clan."

With that said, he was about to depart.

The young woman lifted her head and asked, "Benefactor, what is your honored surname and name?"

Jiang Fan said, "It’s not important. From now on, take good care of the child."

"Too much has been paid for its birth."

The young woman nodded, forcing herself to kneel on the ground. She kowtowed deeply to Jiang Fan: "Thank you, benefactor of no name."

"My Mystic Sky Realm will never forget."

No name, huh?

Jiang Fan finally remembered why he felt such déjà vu from their one-after-another sacrifices.

Because there had once been a nameless person who silently fell in the Southern Heavenly Realm for the future of Central Earth.

That was Ling Xuzi.

Jiang Fan gave a faint smile and turned to leave.

But suddenly, he felt the hair all over his body stand on end.

He turned his head to look, and his pupils couldn’t help but contract violently!

Standing behind the young woman in the red dress, without anyone knowing when he had appeared, was the Wuxiang Sage. His sinister eyes were looking down at the young woman with a playful gaze.

So he had only pretended to leave.

In truth, he had been coveting the ones Jiang Fan had protected with the Immortal King’s Undying Bell, suddenly swinging back with a surprise counterattack!
