Chapter 1154: Strange Twins

It was as if she had guessed Jiang Fan's thoughts. The woman in black gently shook her head and said, "I won't marry an outsider. Don't think too much about it."

Jiang Fan pouted, "I didn't say I wanted to marry you!"

They exchanged glances and said in unison, "So, we each send one person?" After speaking, both were momentarily stunned. Their thoughts often resonated with each other.

The woman in black averted her gaze and said, "There's a clanswoman in my tribe named Xuanxuan; she's very beautiful. She's lively, adorable, and quite endearing. I don't want her to suffer any grievances, so I hope you can send someone who knows how to make people happy."

Jiang Fan also pondered over a suitable candidate from his side. When it came to charming women, it had to be the West Sea Prince, the little expert at seduction. However, that guy wasn't exactly a respectable person. Would he end up harming Miss Xuanxuan?

But he quickly reconsidered. Wait a minute! As a sacrifice for a marriage alliance, why would the woman in black offer her best? Moreover, she had just blurted out a candidate without a second thought, as if eager to marry off Xuanxuan.

Jiang Fan understood. With no further doubts, he said, "We have a West Sea Prince in Central Land. He's tall, handsome, wealthy, very empathetic, and extremely devoted!"

The woman in black stared at Jiang Fan. It was clear she saw that in his two sentences, only "West Sea Prince" was true; everything else was false. But it didn't matter. She was doing the same.

"Then we have a marriage alliance," the woman in black said, a faint smile gracing her lips. Jiang Fan also smiled, "A pleasure working with you." In his heart, Jiang Fan added, "Prince, I'm truly sorry to put you through this."

Next, both parties finalized the specific details of their cooperation, including how long to delay the Five-Star Giant King, the exchange of a Hellish Abyss Crystal, the method for obtaining the crystal, and the time and place for the two "newlyweds" to meet.

Finally, the woman in black said, "In half a month, I will find a way to send Xuanxuan to the Sky-Connecting Black Pillar and let her descend to the lower realm. Make sure to receive her at the base of the Sky-Connecting Black Pillar."

With her strength, unless the Five-Star Giant King personally guarded the Sky-Connecting Black Pillar, she could certainly force her way through. However, she couldn't descend with Xuanxuan. Because if the Ancient Giants sealed off the Sky-Connecting Black Pillar, she would be unable to return to the Celestial Realm.

"There's no need for such trouble," Jiang Fan said. "Just tell me your village's location, and our experts from Central Land will move the Sky-Connecting Black Pillar to your site."

The woman in black pushed up her gold-rimmed glasses, narrowing her eyes as she watched Jiang Fan. "Your Central Land can move the Sky-Connecting Black Pillar?" Jiang Fan nodded. "There's someone named Venerable Heart Demon; he can do it." The woman in black squinted. "Such a key figure, yet with your cautious nature, you haven't kept his identity a secret. Instead, you casually revealed his name? He's your sworn enemy; you want to use the Celestial Realm's power to eliminate him, don't you?"

This woman was indeed terrifyingly intelligent. Jiang Fan shrugged noncommittally. "Anyway, it's settled. If your village wants to relocate to Central Land, we can consider it." Their village, from what Jiang Fan had seen, had at least three Asura Kings. If they could bring them to Central Land, wouldn't that be...

"Thank you, but there's no need," the woman in black said. "Our village is safer than Central Land, thanks to the ancient ruins." Jiang Fan was secretly disappointed. Just as he expected, there was a reason why their village could withstand the Ancient Giants' great hunts.

"Alright, my offer still stands," Jiang Fan said. "If you ever wish to come, you can find me." He looked up and said, "My journey to the Celestial Realm ends here. It's time for me to go back."

"Wait!" the woman in black called out, stopping Jiang Fan. Her eyes, behind the crystal lenses, eerily fixed on him. "Don't touch Lvzhu again."

Jiang Fan was puzzled. "What do you mean?" The woman in black said flatly, "Exactly what it sounds like. Do not touch her."

Jiang Fan's gaze flickered away. "She and I are just normal friends." The woman in black stared at Jiang Fan. "Normal friends don't hug her, don't kiss until their lips go numb, and certainly don't bury their face in her chest!" There seemed to be a hint of annoyance in her tone.

Jiang Fan was greatly astonished! The other two incidents were minor, with many witnesses. But the fact that he had continuously fed Lvzhu ten spiritual pills after she fainted—only he knew about that! Lvzhu herself wasn't even aware! How did the woman in black know? Could she, like the Five-Star Giant King, predict the future? Or see the past?

The woman in black stared at him and said, "I'm curious how you convinced Lvzhu to let you act so freely. She might not be exceptionally intelligent, but she's not foolish either."

Jiang Fan coughed dryly, "Senior, you've got the wrong person." The woman in black strode forward with her long legs and came before Jiang Fan. She grabbed his hand and placed it on her waist. She said blandly, "The size is the same! Who else could it be but you?"

Jiang Fan was a little bewildered. He hadn't even touched her waist, so why did she speak as if she had experienced it firsthand? Suddenly, a thought he dared not believe popped into his mind. "Could it be that you and Lvzhu have a spiritual connection?"

Only this could explain why the woman in black knew about his kissing Lvzhu. It also explained why such a wise, intelligent, and calm person would constantly target Lvzhu and be called crazy by Lvzhu. It was because everything that happened to Lvzhu would be synchronized to the woman in black. If Lvzhu was harmed, the pain would truthfully transmit to the woman in black's consciousness. Even if someone touched her, the slightest physical sensation would be transmitted to the woman in black's consciousness without fail. This had been happening day and night for years. It was a tremendous torment. Anyone would be driven mad by it.

The woman in black's expression subtly changed; she regretted mentioning the matter. Jiang Fan had actually guessed it. Her eyes sharpened slightly, and she said, "In any case, don't touch her again!"

Jiang Fan covered his mouth and then looked at the woman in black's prominent chest. So, when he kissed Lvzhu, he was actually kissing her too? When he rubbed Lvzhu's chest, he was rubbing her chest too? All this time, Jiang Fan had been taking advantage of this Four-Crowned Asura King? This... This... Jiang Fan's eyes widened. No wonder someone with her cool, detached personality would specifically warn Jiang Fan not to touch Lvzhu. She simply couldn't tolerate Jiang Fan!

"I'll try my best," he said awkwardly. The woman in black bit her red lip slightly. "Try your best? You absolutely must not touch her! If you dare to act improperly with her again, don't blame me for killing you as well!"

Jiang Fan awkwardly stopped the conversation and said, "Senior, I must take my leave. Please help me exit the Southern Celestial Realm." With the Five-Star Giant King stationed outside, his spatial teleportation would be cut off. Leaving wouldn't be easy. And the woman in black daring to stay here, drawing the attention of the other Giant Kings, clearly meant she had planned her escape route well.
