Chapter 1130: King

The Space Giant King chuckled wryly:"He didn't say that before! To save his life, he exposed all of you. Tell him I love nothing more than torturing stubborn types!"

Zong Chaosheng quickly asked Jiang Fan, "Junior Brother Jiang, what did he say?"

Jiang Fan shook his head, looking regretful, and said:"He said he likes people with backbone. He doesn't like it when you beg for mercy so humbly."

Zong Chaosheng immediately straightened up, displaying a resolute expression, and said:"Junior Brother Jiang, tell him this. I, Zong Chaosheng, am a true man, definitely the type he admires."

Jiang Fan nodded and relayed:"Giant King, Zong Chaosheng says he has an iron will. If you don't torture him half to death today, you're a worthless animal!"

The Space Giant King's vertical eye immediately burned with rage. Seeing Zong Chaosheng's unyielding, defiant stance, his face twisted into a ferocious scowl:"Fine! I'll grant his wish!"

Jiang Fan quickly relayed:"Zong Chaosheng, he wants you to act even tougher."

Staring at the Giant King's increasingly ferocious face, how could Zong Chaosheng not realize that Jiang Fan, the translator, was fueling the fire? Terrified, he quickly bowed and clasped his hands in supplication, "Giant King, don't believe him..."

The Space Giant King, seething with anger, had already made his move. With a tremor of his eye, a tremendous spatial force shattered Zong Chaosheng's legs.

"Argh!!!"

A pig-like shriek of agony echoed from outside the city wall. Zong Chaosheng lay on the ground, bleeding profusely and crying out in unbearable pain.

It was at the exact moment the Space Giant King struck. Jiang Fan also made his move. He seized the opportunity to activate the cracked bracelet.

At that moment, the Space Giant King had just launched an attack. By the time he noticed Jiang Fan's move, it was too late. The bracelet instantly projected a beam of light, sealing him within it.

As expected of the Space Giant King, he wasn't completely sealed like the Stone Giant King. He struggled fiercely, causing the light beam to rapidly fracture.

Jiang Fan urgently shouted, "Now!" Everyone activated their spatial imprints in succession; even Zong Chaosheng seized the chance to teleport away. Jiang Fan also decisively departed.

Before leaving, he remotely slashed through the burlap sack with a sword. This released Jiuxiang and the Central Earth cultivators who had been captured inside. Everyone quickly realized what was happening and, without a word, activated their spatial imprints.

Meanwhile.

The Space Giant King broke free from the light beam, roaring repeatedly, "Puny humans! How dare you ambush me?"

He tried to control space, to imprison everyone. But they had all escaped his range of control. This made his face turn green with fury. He, a dignified Giant King, had actually been outsmarted by a junior!

The Fortune Giant King, standing nearby, sneered:"Your spatial essence's biggest drawback is that it's limited to your line of sight. In times like these, you have to rely on me."

The nine-colored stellar essence between his brows rotated. He raised a finger towards the sky and uttered, "Misfortune." An invisible wave instantly swept out.

Three breaths later.

*Thump, thump, thump—*

Many Central Earth cultivators who had teleported began to successively reappear back at their starting point! They tumbled one after another before the Space Giant King! Just as the word "misfortune" implied.

"Calamity." He activated it again. Another group of cultivators were sent back to their starting point, covered in blood and injuries.

"Bad luck." He activated it a third time. Even Jiuxiang couldn't escape her unlucky fate and was teleported back.

Not a single person Jiang Fan had let go earlier escaped; all were captured and brought back. Only Jiang Fan, Bai Xin, Fayin Jingang, Ming Ye, and Zong Chaosheng remained outside.

The Fortune Giant King frowned, "The remaining five either have too strong luck or carry powerful treasures; I can't fully interfere. But their situation won't be good."

The Space Giant King scanned the captured individuals and noticed Jiang Fan was missing. A deep malevolence surged in his eyes: "They won't escape! The Stone Giant King already took people to seal off the Heaven-Connecting Black Pillar's exit. They will all be fish in a barrel!"

At that moment.

Jiang Fan was successively swept by three subtle ripples. The first two were blocked by Wang Chongxiao's luck. But the last one ultimately affected him. He unluckily crashed into a spatial barrier, not only being thrown out but also feeling his bones almost shatter.

"Hiss! None of the Giant Kings are simple."

Jiang Fan stood up, holding his waist. He found himself in front of a spatial light barrier.

It was continuously supplied with spatial energy by an ancient, complex formation. In the center of the spatial barrier, there was a nine-colored spiritual pool, emitting swirling mist. It didn't look like the work of the ancient giants.

Just as Jiang Fan was pondering this.

*Splash!* from the spiritual pool. A young woman, completely naked, rose from the spiritual pool.

She was tall and slender, with long legs and a proud, prominent bosom. Her wet silver hair cascaded casually down her back. Her profile was exquisitely beautiful, with a high nose bridge, a delicate chin, and crystal-clear eyes that sparkled like water. It turned out to be a beautiful young woman bathing there.

Jiang Fan was momentarily stunned. Could it be that the Fortune Giant King's attack had brought him a stroke of romantic luck instead? A random collision had led him to such a captivating scene. This must be a woman from the Asura clan.

Jiang Fan quickly turned around, preparing to slip away unnoticed. To his surprise, his pupils contracted. The young woman who had just been in the spiritual pool had appeared before him like a ghost. And she was still completely naked.

"Is it good to look at?" She stared at Jiang Fan, speaking calmly.

Jiang Fan's hair stood on end. He didn't believe there was any kindness in the young woman's words. He immediately cupped his hands and said, "Madam, I was propelled here by a spatial teleportation. I meant no offense; please forgive me."

Her crystal eyes flickered slightly, and she instantly discerned the bad luck clinging to Jiang Fan."Bad luck inflicted by the Fortune Giant King. Then you are indeed very unlucky. To have met me."

She sighed meaningfully. The next instant, Jiang Fan's vision went black. He felt a bit lost. Had he fainted? Or died?

Outside.

With a flick of her delicate hand, a long, embroidered azure dress appeared on her. It added an extra touch of ethereal grace to her already exquisite and otherworldly face.

She no longer looked at Jiang Fan, whose eyes were dimming. She turned to leave.

Suddenly, she seemed to sense something and whirled around to look. She saw the character "Blood" slowly emerge on Jiang Fan's forehead.

The young woman's face showed surprise: "The mark of the Blood Marquis of Chaotic Antiquity? Why would he, a four-aperture Nascent Soul, be marked by someone like the Blood Marquis of Chaotic Antiquity?"

As the character "Blood" appeared, a wisp of fatal yin energy was forced out of Jiang Fan's body.

The young woman murmured, "The Blood Marquis of Chaotic Antiquity wants to kill him personally. Not allowing anyone else to touch him?"

After a brief thought, she withdrew the fatal yin energy, watching Jiang Fan's eyes slowly regain their luster. A flicker of curiosity and slyness appeared in her eyes. Her face then showed a look of concern:

"Young master, are you awake? Why did you faint just now?"
