Chapter 2327: Chapter 2376: Shameless Couple

Through the unseen void, a pair of incomparably majestic eyes pierced the heavens and earth, illuminating the entire hall.

Jiang Fan stood at the center, feeling an immense pressure.

Under the intentional scrutiny of that gaze, the mask on his face showed faint signs of being seen through. Fortunately, it was a Quasi-Realm Artifact. The East Emperor’s gaze ultimately could not see through it.

He said indifferently, "A decent mask. Who is he?"

Yun Wanxiao sneered, enunciating every syllable. "Jiang! Fan!"

Having uttered these two words, he could already imagine the East Emperor’s impending, earth-shattering fury.

However, Yun Wanxiao’s smile froze when, after a moment of silence, the East Emperor replied with a hint of confusion, "Jiang Fan? Never heard of him."

His voice quickly dissipated, and his aura vanished without a trace, leaving Yun Wanxiao frozen on the spot.

The East Emperor... didn’t know Jiang Fan?

How could this be?

Jiang Fan smiled faintly. "Sorry to disappoint you."

There was a hint of coldness in his smile. This guy had the word "despicable" carved into his very bones!

Yun Wanxiao was suffocating with frustration! This was clearly the Northern Heavenly State, his territory! Why was Jiang Fan thriving here even more than him, a local? The West Empress looked out for him, and even the East Emperor seemed to have suddenly forgotten their grudge!

He had the illusion that he was a Central Earth Person, and Jiang Fan was the Angel.

"Jiang Fan!" Yun Wanxiao shouted angrily. "Are you hell-bent on going against me—"

Before he could finish, a powerful aura enveloped him.

Kong Xuanji lowered her head and casually waved a wisp of Angelic power to bind Yun Wanxiao. "You are not allowed to make a move.

"Only I can kill him!!!"

Huh?

The anger on Yun Wanxiao’s face abruptly froze.

What did that mean? Kong Xuanji had a grudge against Jiang Fan? Immediately after, wild joy overflowed on his face, and he couldn’t help but burst into laughter. "HAHAHAHA! Jiang Fan, oh, Jiang Fan, you truly surprise me!"

Xia Chaoge glared angrily at Yun Wanxiao. The most worrisome outcome had still come to pass.

Jiang Fan stroked his chin, sizing Kong Xuanji up and down with confusion. "We have a grudge?"

He didn’t recall ever offending Xia Chaoge’s mother at all.

Kong Xuanji chuckled, her shoulders trembling with laughter. "You dog, I never dreamed that one day you’d deliver yourself right to my door!"

Hearing that familiar tone, Jiang Fan’s body violently shuddered. A figure he had almost forgotten surfaced in his mind!

"You... who are you?" Jiang Fan gulped.

She giggled, her laughter growing increasingly sinister. Wisps of Holy Light appeared around her body, gradually altering her appearance. Her stunning middle-aged features transformed into a beautiful face the same age as Xia Chaoge.

If this wasn’t Linglong, who else could it be?

Linglong gritted her pearly white teeth. "Besides Kong Xuanji, I have another name.

"And that is, Linglong!

"You haven’t forgotten me, have you?"

Jiang Fan’s vision went dark; he nearly fainted on the spot.

Eight-winged Archangel, Linglong!!!

No way, right? Xia Chaoge’s mother was actually that shameless, wretched woman?

At the same time, some rather unsavory memories unhelpfully surfaced. For instance, he had locked Linglong in the Space Mirror, hung her upside down, and whipped her with a small leather whip for two whole months! Or the time he rode her like a mount, flying for half a month. Or when he chopped her into exactly eighty-one pieces!

Jiang Fan swallowed hard, feeling like the sky had collapsed! No wonder this woman kept saying things like, "You’re doomed! Don’t even dream of being with Chaoge in this lifetime!"

So, she was Chaoge’s biological mother!

Linglong’s jade-like hands squeezed the teacup until it CREAKED, mirroring the sound of her grinding teeth. "It seems you still remember me!

"That saves me the trouble of helping you recall!"

Jiang Fan coughed guiltily. "Well, aren’t you responsible for this too?

"What kind of decent mother disguises herself as her daughter’s older sister?"

If he had known earlier that she was Chaoge’s mother, how would Jiang Fan have dared to treat her like that? Besides, the source of all their grievances had started when this wretched woman snatched away the soul of the Jiangshan First-class Building Owner!

Already furious, Linglong broke down on the spot when she heard Jiang Fan show zero remorse and even blame her instead. "You dog! You bullied me like that, and you still dare to show up at my door?

"You even made me serve you tea with my own hands?

"This is too much!"

SMASH!

She violently shattered the teacup in her hand, growing more stifled with anger as she spoke. "I’m a dog if I don’t butcher you today!!!"

Jiang Fan’s mouth twitched uncontrollably. "You wretched woman! I just did you a massive favor, and you immediately bite the hand that feeds you!"

Linglong scolded, "The one you helped was Xia Chaoge! What does that have to do with me, Kong Xuanji?"

Eight wings unfurled from her back simultaneously, and the tremendous pressure of an Eight-winged Archangel instantly made the great hall BUZZ! Her heaven-shaking fury was enough to shatter the courage of anyone in the Divinity Transformation Realm! Even Yun Wanxiao, who had been gloating on the sidelines, was intimidated.

Linglong’s hatred for Jiang Fan was far more intense than he had imagined!

Jiang Fan sighed helplessly. "Is there absolutely no room to ease the grudge between us?"

Linglong gritted her teeth, her facial features twisting with rage. "None!

"Even if the Lord of Heaven himself came, don’t even dream of resolving our grudge!

"Accept your fate, you dog!"

With that said, she prepared to strike and obliterate Jiang Fan. But the moment she raised her hand, she suddenly froze in place. Her almond-shaped eyes widened dramatically.

Deep within her pupils reflected an eyeball-sized Blood Pearl brimming with Holy Power! The energy contained within was enough to drive any Angel mad with desire! Because this was an incomparably precious bead of Holy Blood!

She swallowed hard. "You... you used this thing to help Chaoge break through her cultivation?"

Jiang Fan waved the Holy Blood and said, "The Lord of Heaven can’t resolve it, so I guess this thing can’t either, right?"

Linglong stood stunned, her gaze constantly shifting. Her emotions told her that as a woman, she should chop Jiang Fan into eight pieces and absolutely refuse reconciliation! But reason told her that a heavenly opportunity like this was something she would rarely encounter in her entire life. If she missed it, there wouldn’t be another!

If she had possessed this bead of Holy Blood the last time she attempted to break through to become a Nine-winged Great Angel, she might have actually succeeded! To refuse the Holy Blood now would just be plain stupid!

"Ahem..." Linglong coughed dryly, retracting the wings on her back.

Jiang Fan asked playfully, "So, our grudge is settled?"

Linglong held up her pinky finger. "It only resolves this tiny little bit!"

Smiling, Jiang Fan took out another bead of Holy Blood. "And now?"

Linglong’s eyes went completely round, and her heart unhelpfully leaped into her throat. With two beads, her chances of breaking through to a Nine-winged Great Angel had already reached forty percent! Coupled with the profound foundation she had built up from her previous failed attempt, the probability of success this time might even reach fifty percent!

This was an opportunity that no Eight-winged Archangel had ever had!

"Two beads... two beads is enough to forgive you!

"Don’t get the wrong idea! I’m not doing this for the Holy Blood. I’m doing it so Chaoge won’t be put in a difficult position, got it?"

Although Linglong tried hard to maintain her composure, the corners of her mouth—which were practically splitting open to her ears—broadcasted just how overjoyed she was inside.

However, Jiang Fan suddenly put away the Holy Blood. He sat down on a chair, crossed his legs, and said, "I’m thirsty. I want to drink tea.

"And I want tea brewed by your own hands."

Linglong clenched her fists. This dog sure was demanding!
