Supreme Emptiness

Jiang Fan was utterly baffled.

Could the chest of Sea Demon Clan women really be naturally so hard?

Or perhaps the person in front of him wasn't a woman at all?

"Hahaha!"

This person, regardless of appearance or attire, looked exactly like Yizhu Demon Emperor.

Yet, a crisp male laughter came from their mouth.

Although the voice was pleasant, smooth as jade.

It was undoubtedly a man's.

Jiang Fan quickly withdrew his hand, suspiciously asking, "You are..."

He saw the other person, with a hint of amusement in their eyes, reach into their clothes.

Pulled out two small semicircular coconut shells, tossing them onto the ground.

The bulging chest immediately became flat and ordinary.

"Hahaha, is your heart racing?"

He was none other than the East Sea Crown Prince.

Even when locked away, he was carefree, still pulling pranks.

"However, you have strong willpower."

"You're the first person to resist my mother's allure."

Pfft—

Jiang Fan almost spat out a mouthful of old blood, his eyes widened: "Second Crown Prince?"

"The real deal."

The East Sea Crown Prince shrugged and asked, "What's your relationship with my mother?"

"How come you're calling her by name and addressing her as sister?"

"I don't remember my mom having such a good male friend."

"Even the ill-intentioned Wei Wuji didn't get such treatment."

Jiang Fan's face darkened.

He wished he could punch this bastard.

"Mocking your mother's honor, you dare bring up your mother?"

The East Sea Crown Prince chuckled: "Don't be angry."

"There are all kinds of men around my mother."

"As her son, I'm worried she might be deceived by ill-intentioned men, so I help her discriminate."

"You're not bad, no evil thoughts towards my mother."

Jiang Fan said irritably: "I have a sibling relationship with your mother!"

"No need for your assessment!"

"What's up with you? A dignified crown prince, dressing more feminine than a woman!"

It's no wonder Jiang Fan didn't recognize him.

The East Sea Crown Prince and Yizhu Demon Emperor share identical features.

Aside from a touch of masculine charisma, there's no difference.

If they dressed alike, they would truly be eerily similar.

Someone without long-term acquaintance couldn't possibly discern at first glance.

The East Sea Crown Prince lifted his skirt: "Do you think I want this?"

"I have to disguise as my mother to guard the East Sea."

"To prevent those bastards from Sanqing Mountain from discovering my mother's absence?"

Oh.

Jiang Fan realized.

No wonder Yizhu Demon Emperor said earlier that if the Crown Prince was in the palace.

Sanqing Mountain might not realize she went to the continent.

With someone so uncannily similar, even without probing their cultivation, Sanqing Mountain would have difficulty distinguishing.

He was also inclined to believe Yizhu Demon Emperor's claim that her third daughter was exactly like her before mutating.

If the son is so similar, the daughter would be even more so.

At this moment.

Water surged in the distance.

Jiang Fan's eyes narrowed, positioning himself to guard the East Sea Crown Prince, saying:

"If there's an enemy, you should escape first; I'll hold them off."

The East Sea Crown Prince gazed at Jiang Fan's back, showing a hint of surprise.

This person didn't seem much older than himself.

So responsible?

He smiled slightly: "No need to worry, my mom is coming."

Sure enough.

Yizhu Demon Emperor in a pink dress returned.

Seeing the East Sea Crown Prince, her tense expression finally softened.

Then, she stepped forward and punched him.

"You little rascal! You ran off to patrol the East Sea."

"Are you satisfied now?"

"You almost followed in your sister's footsteps, you know?"

She relentlessly punched him several more times in frustration, causing him to cough up blood.

Jiang Fan's eyelids fluttered.

Goodness gracious.

She really doesn't hold back!

This undoubtedly is her son.

He quickly held back Yizhu Demon Emperor, saying: "Alright, alright, Sister Yizhu."

"He didn't suffer any harm from the enemy, only got injured by you."

Yizhu Demon Emperor was restrained.

Her eyes were already welling with tears.

Her long-restrained emotions finally broke.

With tears, she said:

"I'm dealing with Sanqing Mountain, handling the myriad realms of emptiness, coping with this accident, managing that unexpected incident."

"Every day, when I open my eyes, it's the East Sea Demon Clan, when I close them, worrying about tomorrow."

"Everyone around needs me, no one I can rely on."

"I'm already very tired, utterly exhausted."

"And you keep stressing me out!"

"If something happens to you too, I'll truly break down!"

The East Sea Crown Prince bowed his head in shame.

This rash patrol of the East Sea really caused big trouble.

Jiang Fan watched, softly comforting: "Sister Yizhu, the matter has passed."

"Believe the Crown Prince will learn from this experience, maturing quickly."

"Now, with the threat of Sanqing Mountain gone from East Sea, there will be fewer troubles ahead."

"Your burdens will ease greatly."

"Just watching over the children until they reach the Demon Emperor Realm, then you can rest."

Yizhu Demon Emperor couldn't hold back her tears anymore.

Turning, she embraced Jiang Fan, like finding a long-lost support, tears flowing freely.

"Jiang Fan, thank you."

"Thank you."

"Without you, I don't know what I would do."

Jiang Fan's kindness to East Sea was indeed heavy.

Removing Sanqing Mountain, the chain around their neck.

And saving her son.

Even as a demon emperor, she didn't know how to repay him.

Jiang Fan gently patted her back.

"Good things come with trials."

"East Sea will become better and better in the future."

Yizhu Demon Emperor continued to sob without stopping.

The East Sea Crown Prince watched the scene in front, deep in thought.

After a long while.

Yizhu Demon Emperor calmed down, wiping away tears.

With deep affection, she looked at Jiang Fan, saying: "Come, let's return to the East Sea Palace."

"I'll host a grand banquet, expressing profound gratitude to you!"

Seeing Jiang Fan open his mouth, she immediately said: "Don't refuse."

"Otherwise, I won't let you leave the East Sea."

Jiang Fan was at a loss.

This banquet, he had no choice but to attend.

Such warmth is hard to refuse.

Jiang Fan nodded, saying: "Alright, the banquet is fine, but don't make it too grand."

"Sanqing Mountain will surely investigate the Pill Recipe matter."

"If you express your gratitude too openly, what would Sanqing Mountain think?"

Yizhu Demon Emperor slapped her forehead: "I was inconsiderate."

"Alright, then it's just a family feast."

The group headed towards East Sea Palace.

As they neared, they noticed turbulent sea currents near East Sea Palace.

As if powerful beings were in battle.

Everyone's expression became tense.

They hurried over.

Only to find Wei Wuji and Vice Building Master Gu battling two Nascent Soul Realm beings.

Wei Wuji's opponent was also a robed figure.

Vice Building Master Gu's opponent was a slightly hunched old man.

Although cloaked in a robe.

But, it was evident at a glance, it was Xuanyang!

"That old dog!" Yizhu Demon Emperor was furious.

They were indeed unwilling to accept the Pill Recipe being deciphered, coming back for revenge.

They first trapped the Crown Prince, trying to mutate him.

Then took advantage of their absence in search of the Crown Prince, to wreak havoc at East Sea Palace.

What they didn't expect was.

Gu Xin'er was at East Sea Palace.

Wei Wuji happened to be there too.

They were caught red-handed!

Gu Xin'er noticed Yizhu Demon Emperor's return, immediately saying: "Yizhu Demon Emperor."

"These people want to take away the Mother Origin Cauldron and release the sea spring!"

"Fortunately, I was healing inside the Mother Origin Cauldron and discovered them in time, or it would have been too late!"

What?

A mere leak of the mysterious fluid from the sea spring caused such severe consequences for the Sea Demon Clan?

If it were fully released, what then?

I'm afraid disaster would instantly descend upon the Sea Demon Clan.

The East Sea Demon Clan would be the first victims, no one would escape!

"Sanqing Mountain! You've got a death wish!"

Yizhu Demon Emperor was furious.
