Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 1945: Chapter 1988: Descendants of Meritorious Heroes

Jian Weishuang and the accompanying elder with an Eight-Orifice Nascent Soul both had their eyes darken.

The Family Head, Jian Lanjiang, along with the War Corpse, remained forever on the battlefield of the Fire Worship Sect, never to return.

The late-stage Nascent Soul experts in the clan also nearly all fell in the ancient giant war before the Forbidden Land.

Only an elder from the past generation with an Eight-Orifice Nascent Soul remains to support the clan.

The initial to middle Nascent Soul members also fell in great numbers.

The current Jian Family is lacking talents and is no longer as glorious as it was before the war.

With the reshuffling pattern of Taicang State, the Jian Family has already fallen to a middling family. In another sixty years, they’ll become a minor family.

A hundred years later, perhaps there will no longer be a Jian Family in the world.

Just like many families that have disappeared in the river of history, the Jian Family will also become something buried in the dust, forgotten by people.

”It’s alright, our Jian Family lacks the strength to fight in the Heavenly Realm, so let us offer the stage to Senior Jiang.”

”Hopefully, it can help him carry on the Family Head’s will and continue the fight against the ancient giants.”

”Uncle Nine, let’s go.”

Jian Weishuang and the elders of the clan rose into the air, preparing to leave.

At this moment, the crowd suddenly stirred.

”It’s Starfire Venerable!”

”Starfire Venerable is here!”

The crowd surged forward, and Jian Linyuan was slightly pleased and hurriedly rushed forward as well.

But as soon as he got up, he was knocked aside by the late-stage Nascent Soul members of Divine Movement Sect.

”Move aside! Don’t block the way!”

Jian Linyuan was knocked back, his blood and qi swirling, and he fell from mid-air. Fortunately, Jian Weishuang and Uncle Nine from the clan rushed over in time to catch him.

Uncle Nine glared angrily, wanting to scold them, but was stopped by Jian Linyuan raising a hand: ”No, no, I’m fine.”

The current Jian Family is not suitable for conflicts with the Three God Sect and the seven major sects.

A little grievance, just endure it, absolutely cannot offend people.

”Let’s wait a while, after Senior Jiang has met with others, we’ll come forward to pay our respects...”

Jian Linyuan was speaking when his arm was suddenly gripped by a strong hand, helping him up.

Looking up, Jian Linyuan said in surprise, ”Senior Jiang?”

Uncle Nine’s expression changed, and he hurriedly bowed in salute.

There was a complicated look in Jian Weishuang’s eyes, recalling when Jiang Fan took her on a trip to the Southern Heavenly Realm, he was still in the Initial Period of the Nascent Soul Realm.

At that time, the gap between the two was not far.

Now, the other party has reached the Divinity Transformation Realm, and even defeated the Young Emperor, Central Earth’s number one Divinity Transformation.

She can no longer even see the end when looking up to him.

She put away her past casual behavior, and immediately bowed respectfully: ”This junior greets Senior Jiang.”

Jiang Fan sighed silently, the old friends of the past have been drifting further and further away.

He helped the three of them up, saying, ”You two siblings need not be so formal with me.”

”This elder of the Jian Family with an Eight-Orifice Nascent Soul is also here to seek the way to Divinity Transformation, right?”

”Do you have the Soul Awakening Divine Nails?”

Uncle Nine was flattered and quickly said, ”I do, I do, thank you for your concern, Senior Jiang.”

Jiang Fan nodded, ”Prepare to break through to the Nine Aperture Nascent Soul, I’ll take you in shortly.”

”Thank you, Senior Jiang, thank you!” Uncle Nine was overwhelmed with excitement.

No one expected Jiang Fan to ignore the big powers and first help their Jian Family.

Jian Linyuan was slightly choked up, bowing again, ”Thank you...”

Jiang Fan patted his shoulder: ”I should personally go to the Jian Family to lend a hand to the late-stage Nascent Soul members.”

”Letting you seek me out and wait for me is my fault.”

Jian Lanjiang, with his Seven Orifice Nascent Soul Body, commanded the War Corpse through three major battles, turning the tide multiple times.

If it hadn’t been for him, the outcome of a battle in Taicang State would be uncertain.

The Jian Family contributed greatly, yet the clan declined because of it. How could he bear to stand by and watch?

”Junior Brother Jian, if you’re not averse, why not move the Jian Family to Qingli Mountain?”

”I can allocate a territory for your Jian Family beside the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion to resettle.”

Upon hearing this, the three members of the Jian Family were overjoyed beyond words.

The Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion is the top sect in Taicang State, no, it’s ranked among the top in all of Central Earth!

With such a super sect sheltering them, why would the Jian Family worry about not being able to revive?

Jian Weishuang was so overjoyed she burst into tears and was about to kneel before Jiang Fan: ”Thank you, Senior Jiang, for your great kindness!”

Jiang Fan casually waved, using Qi Force to support her, saying, ”You siblings should go prepare your family.”

”This elder from the Jian Family will come with me back to the mountain gate.”

Jian Linyuan nodded repeatedly in excitement and was about to leave when Jian Weishuang suddenly remembered, and raised her hand to give him a knock on the forehead:

”How could you forget the main task?”

Only then did Jian Linyuan remember, quickly taking out a Space Storage Device from his chest, saying:

”Senior Jiang, this is what the Family Head instructed us to give you before heading to battle at the Fire Worship Sect.”

Jiang Fan took it and his pupils couldn’t help but contract.

An ancient arena?

He had gone on twice, cultivating the First Layer and Second Layer of the ”No-Self Dust-Cleansing Technique.”

Only the Third Layer remains unpracticed.

Jian Linyuan knew that going to the Fire Worship Sect was fraught with peril, so he entrusted the arena and the Jian Family to him?

Jiang Fan’s gaze trembled, and he put away the Storage Device, saying, ”Thank you.”

”Before the expedition to the Heavenly Realm, let’s go to the cemetery together to pay respects to Elder Jian.”

Jian Linyuan and Jian Weishuang nodded with tears in their eyes, bowing and leaving.

The powerful figures of each state remained silent.

It’s no wonder that in Taicang State, from ordinary Martial Artists to those at the Great Wine Sacrifice, all admire Jiang Fan so much?

Setting aside strength, who wouldn’t sincerely respect a king who shows compassion to the weak and cares for the descendants of merit?

Jiang Fan scanned them, seeing Song Lingyu in the crowd, also known as Hua Wuying’s master.

Seeing Jiang Fan’s gaze on her, she awkwardly said, ”Don’t... don’t misunderstand, I’m here to take my disciple home.”

Jiang Fan smiled, ”Then come on over.”

Song Lingyu’s heart pounded wildly, meaning she could also experience the so-called guidance and try to reach the Divinity Transformation Realm.

The strong who understand the relationship between Song Lingyu and Jiang Fan secretly slapped their thighs.

”How am I any worse than her? Just short of a beautiful disciple to inherit!”

”This woman who relies on her disciple’s prestige ran into such a good disciple, what dumb luck.”

Amidst envious and jealous gazes, Song Lingyu excitedly approached Jiang Fan’s side.

Jiang Fan then looked at the others.

He first selected late-stage Nascent Soul members from sects within Taicang State, followed by those from Great Wilderness State, Dan State, and Divine Weapon State.

Finally, he selected people from the Demon Continent and Returning Ruins State.

Altogether, he chose about twenty people.

If all went well, Central Earth could gain twenty more in the Divinity Transformation Realm.

He glanced at the remaining late-stage Nascent Soul members and waved his hand, saying:

”The opportunity for Divinity Transformation is limited, you all disperse.”

No one dared to have the slightest complaint, and besides, those Jiang Fan selected were either those who made great contributions during the ancient giant war for Taicang State or were from sects extremely close to Jiang Fan.

So they had no words.

After dismissing everyone, Jiang Fan led the twenty into the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, just as he was about to leave.

A group of Sage Level auras appeared out of thin air behind him.

A calm and emotionless voice lightly sounded: ”Starfire Venerable, haven’t you left us waiting long enough?”
