Chapter 1185: Watching Jiang Fan's Adventure (Twelve Updates)

He tried to slide down from her long, cool, and smooth legs.

But Revered Zhenyan hugged him back, holding him securely on her lap. "You still haven't told me your name!" she said.

Jiang Fan, suppressing the strange feeling, said in a childish voice, "My name is Jiang Lingli."

Revered Zhenyan raised an eyebrow. "Why such a difficult name to pronounce? Where's your brother, Jiang Fan?"

Jiang Fan shook his head. "I don't know. He dropped me off and ran away."

Revered Zhenyan snorted lightly. "That brat probably knew I woke up and ran off ahead of time. But even if the elder brother ran, could the younger one escape?" Thinking of this, she looked at Jiang Lingli in her arms and said gently, "Don't be afraid, Auntie will protect you."

Jiang Fan nodded his head and smiled sweetly. "Thank you, big sister."

"Big sister?" Revered Zhenyan couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle softly. "What a sweet-tongued child! A hundred times better than your brother!" What woman doesn't like being called young? She was old enough to be an auntie, yet she was called "big sister." How could she possibly dislike such a sweet and adorable child?

"Big sister will peel something for you to eat." She took out a spirit fruit, peeled off its skin, broke open the flesh, and fed it to Jiang Fan. Jiang Fan felt resistant inside. What he was eating wasn't fruit; it was clearly a death warrant. He wanted to cry but had no tears, munching on the fruit piece by piece.

The heartwarming scene brought knowing smiles to many faces. Only the Grand Libationer kept rubbing his temples.

At this moment, they finally encountered the Nine-Orifice Giant, who spoke a series of garbled words. Everyone looked towards Jiang Fan, their translator, and he translated on the spot. Hearing that the words were mostly threats and belligerence, no one paid much attention. Instead, they were captivated by the battle scenes. Especially at the last moment, when it seemed everyone would be pulverized by a spiked club, Jiang Fan, the owner of the perspective, suddenly made his move. The Nine-Orifice Giant's body suddenly sank into the Lake of Chaos. It struggled to rise, only to have its head burned away by a flame from Jiang Fan's Heaven-Slaying Brazier.

The Revered Ones watched in astonishment and disbelief. "This... was this done by that Jiang Fan? A junior, capable of forcefully slaying an ancient giant of this caliber? Grand Libationer, this Jiang Fan must be one of the Eighteen Disciples of Taicang, right?" Even Revered Zhenyan was startled. She couldn't help but murmur, "This fellow looks so calm and gentle when he's not fighting. But when he makes a move, he's so fierce?" She realized she had underestimated Jiang Fan.

Jiang Fan also let out a long sigh of relief. The Grand Libationer had preemptively blocked the Immeasurable Ring and Heaven-Slaying Brazier that Jiang Fan used, saving him a lot of unnecessary trouble. At this point, the Nine-Orifice Giant uttered a threat before its death. Jiang Fan translated, "You can't go back. We knew you were coming a long time ago!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of all the Revered Ones subtly changed. The Grand Libationer's aged eyes narrowed. "So, it seems there are spies in our Grand State of Taicang who secretly communicate with the ancient giants. This information alone counts as a meritorious deed."

The projection continued. Soon, it showed the conversation with Shanfeng, which Jiang Fan translated word for word. There wasn't anything particularly significant, as everyone's attention was quickly drawn to the Stone Giant King. The terrifying twenty-zhang tall figure created an immense visual impact on those who had never seen a Giant King before.

Even Revered Zhenyan couldn't help but grow nervous, hugging Jiang Fan tightly in her arms. Jiang Fan's head was inevitably pressed into a soft, ample form. His old face flushed, and he tried to break free, but Revered Zhenyan held him even tighter. There was nothing he could do; he could only lean into it, a mix of pain and pleasure.

The entire hall fell silent, breaths held, everyone staring fixedly at the scene. The disciples, in particular, were stiff all over. Even through the projection, they felt a suffocating sense of oppression. If it were them, suddenly facing a Giant King, they wouldn't dare to move. Their minds would likely be blank, filled with endless despair.

However, Jiang Fan made an unexpected move that surprised everyone. While the Giant King's attention was elsewhere, he decisively activated his bracelet, ensnaring it. This allowed everyone to escape! What astonished them even more was that before leaving, Jiang Fan snatched the Stone Giant King's burlap sack. He even added, "I'll just take this!" For a moment, everyone was both amazed and somewhat speechless.

Upon seeing this, the Grand Libationer interrupted briefly. "Saving everyone counts as one meritorious deed. He also uncovered a piece of information that was never known before: ancient giants cannot enter the stronghold." The strong cultivators from various states quickly took out their small notebooks and jotted down this extremely important information.

Next, it showed Jiang Fan exchanging items with the Stone Giant King. The Stone Giant King was tricked, angrily stomping his feet outside and cursing Jiang Fan's entire family. This scene made several Revered Ones unable to hold back their laughter. Revered Zhenyan even let out a snicker. She gently poked Jiang Fan's head. "Your brother is truly a scoundrel!" Jiang Fan's small face darkened slightly. Does one really have to curse someone like that right in front of them?

Following that was the conversation with Mingye. Everyone's expressions grew serious again, and their small notebooks were rapidly filled with notes: the ancient sinkhole, the transformation of ancient giants, their forces far surpassing previous numbers, and something that could reverse the transformation. Vice-Palace Master You pounded the table. "This information is incredible! The Black Sun Imperial Court has an ancient sinkhole, but do other tribes have them too?" Even the Armored Demon Lord, who had initially been impatient, looked solemn, and his disciples behind him were rapidly taking notes. It had to be said, the information revealed so far alone made their long journey worthwhile.

Only Revered Evil Crow seemed displeased. "This is everyone's achievement; how can it all be credited to Jiang Fan?" Jiang Fan glanced at the old geezer. The Revered Ones from other states were full of praise. As one of their own, he was instead being sour? Anyone who didn't know would think he was from another state! No wonder he raised a spineless sect master like the Grand Yin Sect Master; Revered Evil Crow himself had no sense of collective honor, only focused on settling his personal grudges! As the leader, so are the followers!

The Grand Libationer glanced at him and said indifferently, "Keep watching."

Next, the group set off for the Black Sun Imperial Court. Following Jiang Fan's perspective, everyone clearly saw the interior of the Black Sun Imperial Court. Their expressions grew even more solemn when they noticed the powerful aura of a hundred ancient giant battle groups training. This continued until Jiang Fan and the others infiltrated the armory's secret chamber and stole the treasures. Of course, the Grand Libationer had once again concealed the treasures. No one knew what Jiang Fan had taken.

"Tsk!" the Armored Demon Lord grumbled. "They're blocking this and blocking that." Just when they finally reached the exciting treasure-snatching part, it was suddenly hidden from view. This feeling was truly infuriating! The Grand Libationer chuckled hoarsely. "It's nothing, nothing. Just some small trinkets." The Revered Ones from the other states' mouths twitched. Anything deeply hidden in such a secret chamber by ancient giants had to be a tribe's most precious treasure! How could it be just a small trinket?

But the next moment, everyone's hearts suddenly clenched. Because another Giant King appeared before them, suppressing everyone and preventing them from using spatial imprints to leave. "This... is there still a way out of this?"
