Chapter 2338: Chapter 2389: Save Where You Can, Spend Where You Must

Jiang Fan was speechless.

He couldn’t even move. How was he supposed to help this woman?

At this moment, Yu Luo’s soul transmission echoed in his mind once more. "I need to borrow your body for a moment. Don’t resist."

Then, Yu Luo tossed out a talisman, shrouded in a five-colored radiance and capable of resisting the Five Elements Power, which landed squarely on Jiang Fan. A First Layer of the Power of Laws erupted from within it.

Jiang Fan immediately felt a strange power melting his body. He instinctively resisted, and the power began to slowly recede.

"Don’t resist, or the Law will be ineffective!" Yu Luo said anxiously. "If you still want the items I promised you, just accept it obediently."

Jiang Fan’s eyes flashed. With the Void Flow Five Forces at his disposal, he could counterattack in time if this woman truly meant him harm. He promptly allowed the power to enter his body.

The next moment, his vision went black. When the light returned, Yu Luo’s face was mere inches away! Looking around in bewilderment, he realized he had taken the place of the Mixed Element Nine-winged Archangel! Meanwhile, Hun Yuan lay in his previous position, the World Dust in his hands continuing to absorb the Five Magnet Immortal Mountain.

The flying iron chains instantly hooked around Jiang Fan’s waist. He finally understood what kind of help Yu Luo needed. She had anticipated that someone would sabotage their operation and needed a scapegoat to act as a body double at the critical moment.

By the time Linglong noticed from above, it was already too late. The brief interval had given Hun Yuan the perfect opportunity.

As the World Dust in his hands flashed with explosive light, the Five Magnet Immortal Mountain, which had spanned across this land for countless ages, began to tremble violently. The colossal mountain, stretching thousands of feet high, emitted a deep, rumbling HUMMM. The earth at the foot of the mountain caved in, with fissures snaking underground like roaming dragons.

Joy flashed in Yu Luo’s eyes. "It’s done!"

She casually tossed Jiang Fan onto the ground. Jiang Fan feigned weakness. He collapsed and activated the Silent Zen Dao, saying, "Stinky woman, where are the items you promised me?"

"We have a saying in the Lost Heavenly Realm," Yu Luo teased via soul transmission, rolling her eyes at him. "Save where you should, spend where you must, and always make your money count. You can’t even move, and you’re still asking for things?"

Heh! Jiang Fan was so angry he laughed! What was wrong with people lately? Every single one of them wanted to freeload off him!

Glancing at Hun Yuan, who was suppressed to the point of immobility, and Yu Luo, who was struggling exceptionally hard just to move, he decided he couldn’t tolerate it any longer.

"Fine. Since you won’t give them to me, I’ll just take them myself!" Jiang Fan spoke through the Silent Zen Dao before nonchalantly climbing to his feet.

Beneath his clothes, three meridians of different colors were flowing with energy. He clenched his fists, his knuckles letting out a loud CRACK, and said, "Although there’s still some suppression, I can still exert seventy percent of my Void Flow Power."

This scene shocked everyone both inside and outside the Immortal Mountain.

The West Empress was overjoyed. "Quick! Stop that Hun Yuan, and I will reward you handsomely!"

Jiang Fan rolled his eyes at her. "You’re just a woman who wants to freeload. You have no right to offer me a handsome reward!"

He then looked at Yu Luo with a cold glint in his eyes. "Some money just can’t be saved!"

Stomping his foot, his figure darted forward fiercely, landing a heavy punch right in her abdomen. Yu Luo wanted to dodge, but under the suppression of the Five Elements Power, just standing up was a struggle, let alone evading an attack.

BLEUGH—

Taking the punch forcefully, Yu Luo’s stomach caved in, and she began to dry-heave on the spot. She almost threw up meals she had eaten who knew how many years ago.

"You... you were faking it..." Yu Luo was both shocked and furious!

She had thought that she and Hun Yuan were the absolute best at disguising themselves. She never expected an even greater master of deception to be hiding in the background!

Jiang Fan grabbed her by the throat and laughed in anger. "If I didn’t fake it a little, wouldn’t you have chewed me up and spat me out? Hand the items over!"

Yu Luo gritted her teeth slightly. "Piss off. You have no idea who you’re talking to..."

BAM—

The only response she got was another vicious punch from Jiang Fan, accompanied by his indifferent gaze.

"You don’t actually think you’re cute, do you?

"You didn’t honestly think I’d show you mercy just because you’re a woman, right?"

That punch genuinely made Yu Luo vomit.

"How dare you treat me like this..." she said angrily. She turned her head and shouted to the West Empress, "Do you know he..."

She was actually planning to expose the secret that Jiang Fan’s memories couldn’t be erased. If she went down, she was taking everyone with her!

Who would have thought? Halfway through her sentence, she couldn’t speak another word. Because Jiang Fan had pulled out a sock from God-knows-where and stuffed it right into her mouth!

"Since you refuse to speak, I guess I’ll just have to search for them myself!" Jiang Fan glanced at her waist and reached out his hand.

Yu Luo was frantic and furious. But how could she dare let Jiang Fan search her? She had many precious treasures on her. If Jiang Fan found them, they would undoubtedly be changing owners. It wasn’t worth losing all that just to hold onto a few Laws.

She hurriedly pulled out that natural Storage Device. Jiang Fan snatched it away and swept his consciousness inside. Sure enough, he found the ten prepared Laws, as well as the special Law of the Mixed Element Archangel.

He chuckled. "You were going to hand it over sooner or later, so why take two punches for nothing?"

Yu Luo yanked the stinky sock out of her mouth and roared in uncontrollable rage, "You’re dead..."

She had only managed to spit out two words when she saw Jiang Fan’s fist swinging toward her again, scaring her into instantly shutting her mouth. She could only glare at him with furious eyes.

Jiang Fan changed his fist into a palm and patted her soft, tender cheek. "Disaster stems from the mouth. Or, perhaps, you’d like to taste what an ’Eighty’ feels like!"

Although she didn’t know what the "Eighty" Jiang Fan mentioned meant, she knew it was definitely nothing good. She had no choice but to swallow her anger for the time being, not daring to expose Jiang Fan’s secret anymore.

Having dealt with her, Jiang Fan walked over to Hun Yuan.

The latter’s eyelids twitched, and he hurriedly said, "Sir, you belong to the Human Clan. There’s no need for you to interfere in the affairs of our Angel Clan. Let me take the Five Magnet Immortal Mountain, and I will be heavily indebted to you!"

Hearing this, both the East Emperor and West Empress grew anxious.

The East Emperor hastily said, "Fellow Daoist, kill him, and I will confer upon you the title of First Guest Elder of the Northern Heavenly State."

Jiang Fan scoffed. The person he wanted to kill the most was the East Emperor. However, he looked up at the sky and ultimately suppressed the thought. If he actually did that, the Saint Realm experts of the Northern Heavenly State would never let him off.

"The First Guest Elder? What the hell is that?" Jiang Fan said disdainfully. As the Tenth Saint of the Central Earth, had he let it get to his head? Why would he care for a Guest Elder position in the Northern Heavenly State? There was absolutely no sincerity in that offer!

"Then we shall crown you the Southern Emperor of the Northern Heavenly State!" The West Empress’s beautiful eyes shifted as she offered. "You will be protected by the Holy Angel and enjoy the tributes of billions of Angels. Your status will be completely equal to that of the East Emperor!"

Jiang Fan smiled. Status was something earned through fists; it couldn’t simply be given by others. However, the part about being protected by the Holy Angel was quite appealing to him. This meant that as long as he was in the Northern Heavenly State, the East Emperor and West Empress wouldn’t be able to kill him. And since he had yet to take Chaoge away, he still needed to travel through the Northern Heavenly State for the time being. Having such a Life-saving Talisman couldn’t be better.

"Alright! Go ahead and request permission from the Holy Angel first," Jiang Fan said.

The West Empress hurriedly looked toward the East Emperor. Such a monumental matter required both of them to communicate with the Saint together.

"How could you promise something so absurd?" the East Emperor glared at the West Empress with extreme dissatisfaction. "I will never agree to it!"

The Northern Heavenly State belonged to him alone. Why should he share it with an outsider?

However, to the East Emperor’s utter shock, a colossal dark silhouette, spanning tens of thousands of feet, was projected from the void onto the earth.

A slow, magnetic voice drifted down leisurely. "The West Empress’s proposal... is not bad."
