Chapter 1576: Auntie Has Three Virtues

"You answered incorrectly."

"I am the remnant soul of the Giant Emperor."

"It's been a long time since I've eaten humans. Little human, since you've delivered yourself, I won't hold back."

The voice reached Jiang Fan's soul directly once more. It even declared itself to be the remnant soul of the Giant Emperor!

Jiang Fan remained unfazed, saying, "Senior... you're quite humorous."

"Oh? You know I'm teasing you?" the voice in his soul asked again.

Jiang Fan replied, "The Sage of Divine Weapon Continent has been refining artifacts at the Fire Worship Sect for sixty years. How could he not know what lies beneath the fire spring?"

"If a remnant soul of the Giant Emperor existed here, he would have eliminated it long ago."

"He would only tolerate the continued existence of a remnant soul belonging to one of his own."

"What's more..." He glanced at the unharmed True Words Venerable and added, "If Senior were the remnant soul of the Giant Emperor, my friend would have perished long ago."

"Heh, your mind works quite fast."

"How boring."

A sigh of disinterest echoed in Jiang Fan's soul.

Then, a wisp of smoke floated out from the broken jade book held by True Words Venerable, condensing into a translucent female figure. She appeared to be in her thirties, with a beautiful face and a beauty mark at the corner of her right eye. She was casually wrapped in a bath towel, revealing long, shapely legs, and her hair was still damp, as if she had just bathed. Her eyes held a lazy gaze as she casually looked Jiang Fan up and down:

"I was wondering who collected my bathwater. Turns out it's a handsome young man."

"Never mind. Since you're so good-looking, I'll let you take advantage of me this once."

Bathwater? Was she talking about the lava lake?

Jiang Fan's mouth twitched. "Senior, you truly are a joker." No matter how famished he was, he wouldn't have any thoughts about a remnant soul of an old woman from a thousand years ago.

"Hehe..." The lazy woman glanced at the young, beautiful, and alluring True Words Venerable, then scoffed:

"Aunties are good in three ways: caring, wealthy, and easy to flirt with."

"You, my boy, are still too young."

A vein throbbed on Jiang Fan's forehead. He felt a deep sense of irritation. He took a deep breath, suppressing his temper, and politely said:

"Senior is truly approachable, and so humorous even with us juniors."

"I won't disturb your bath any further. Please allow me to take my friend and leave."

The remnant soul of the Jade Scroll of Heaven's owner had such an unexpected personality. Heaven knew what unexpected things she might do. It was better to quickly take True Words Venerable away from her.

"I won't stop you from leaving, but this girl stays," the female remnant soul said lazily.

Jiang Fan's eyes narrowed slightly. He asked in a deep voice, "Senior, why do you want to keep her?"

The female remnant soul shrugged. "To possess her body, of course."

"It's rare for a young, beautiful woman to deliver herself to me. If I didn't possess her, it would be an offense against natural law."

What? Jiang Fan's expression changed drastically. This was exactly what he feared most! A perfect body was undoubtedly the most coveted resource for a remnant soul!

With a thought, he decisively activated his spatial essence, instantly teleporting behind True Words Venerable. Then, he swiftly grabbed her shoulder, intending to lift her and leave. However, despite his effort, True Words Venerable didn't budge. She seemed rooted to the ground, impossible to move. It was just like how the void fishing rod couldn't pull her earlier.

The female remnant soul casually crossed her arms over her chest and said, "My Jade Scroll of Heaven is weighing her down. If you can drag her, then you can have both her and the Jade Scroll of Heaven."

Jiang Fan's gaze swept to the broken jade book held by True Words Venerable. A quick glance showed that the exposed pages were identical to the pages of the Jade Scroll of Heaven he had once obtained. This truly was the Jade Scroll of Heaven! His mind stirred, and he decisively took out three pages from his own Jade Scroll of Heaven. Since True Words Venerable was incredibly heavy due to the Jade Scroll of Heaven's influence, perhaps holding the heavy pages of the Jade Scroll of Heaven himself could nullify that effect?

Gripping the pages, he once again grabbed True Words Venerable's shoulder and pulled upwards. Instantly, True Words Venerable lifted off the ground. Although still heavy, she was now movable enough for him to take her away.

"Ah? You have pages from the Jade Scroll of Heaven?" The female remnant soul was startled and quickly transformed into a wisp of smoke, returning to the Jade Scroll of Heaven. Instantly, True Words Venerable became incredibly heavy again.

Jiang Fan's hand slipped, unable to grip True Words Venerable's bare shoulder. His face darkened. "Are you going to cheat?"

"You said I could take everything if I could move it. Why are you reneging now?"

There was no movement from within the Jade Scroll of Heaven.

A vein pulsed on Jiang Fan's forehead. "Come out! Don't play dead!"

"As a Sage, do you have no shame?" Since he wasn't going to live long anyway, there was no need to fear anyone. He naturally had no need to respect such an unsportsmanlike Sage.

Still, there was no movement from within the Jade Scroll of Heaven.

Jiang Fan chuckled in anger and began to rant: "Do you think you're so beautiful? You started flirting with me the moment you spoke. I feel like reporting you for harassment!"

"Also, put some proper clothes on! My True Words wife is right here. What makes you think you can compare your figure to hers?"

"And 'aunties are good in three ways'? What's good about you? Even if I were reduced to the lowest of lows, I would never take you as a client!"

Jiang Fan, who rarely cursed, ranted to his heart's content. But still, there was no movement from the Jade Scroll of Heaven; the other party simply refused to show herself.

Jiang Fan gritted his teeth. "This old hag, surely she hasn't sealed her hearing, has she?"

Unexpectedly, she had endured all of Jiang Fan's insults. But the moment he called her an "old hag," she instantly leaped out of the Jade Scroll of Heaven. Perhaps it was due to Jiang Fan's verbal assault, but she had changed into a dignified long dress, tied up her long hair, and shed her lazy demeanor. She now appeared graceful, elegant, and strikingly beautiful. Jiang Fan couldn't help but be stunned. If not for the angry expression on her face, he almost wouldn't have believed she was the same remnant soul from moments ago.

"You brat! You called me old? Say it again if you dare!" She could grit her teeth and endure any other insults. But to call her old! She was clearly a thirty-year-old maiden who had lived for over a thousand years!

Jiang Fan had been waiting for her to appear. He quickly grabbed True Words Venerable from behind, and with a powerful leap, they sprang out of the lava lake.

"Trying to leave?" The female remnant soul's face elongated with displeasure. "So, you're not treating a Sage like a Sage anymore, are you?"

Her ethereal body contracted into a beam of soul light. Then it suddenly shot into the back of Jiang Fan's head, cursing, "You want to report me for harassment? You said my figure isn't as good as this girl's? You said you wouldn't entertain me even if you were reduced to the lowest of lows?"

"And finally, you called me old?"

"I'll pull out your venomous tongue and make you mute!"

The next instant, she entered Jiang Fan's soul. Just as she was about to make Jiang Fan experience agonizing soul pain, suddenly, a long-dormant law was activated. Powerful law fluctuations swept over her remnant soul, causing her soul to tremble, and she hastily retreated from Jiang Fan's sea of souls.

"The Law of Sage Tianmu?"

"Hitting is affection, scolding is love? How did that guy engrave such a lewd law on you?"

As a fellow Sage, the female remnant soul was not directly affected by the law. However, she couldn't attack Jiang Fan. Any attempt to act would activate the law, which would then force her out of Jiang Fan's soul.

Jiang Fan looked down and gave her a disdainful look. "Who's more lewd than you?"

"You can play around here by yourself!"

With that, he soared into the sky, holding True Words Venerable.

"Stop!" the female remnant soul cried out urgently. Since she couldn't enter Jiang Fan's soul, she could only return to the Jade Scroll of Heaven for now. Once back inside, she would never come out again. Jiang Fan's shouting himself hoarse would be useless!
