Supreme Emptiness

The members of the Xu Family were utterly shocked.

"Is she, is she really Xu Youran? Am I not mistaken?"

"Wasn't she just at the Second Layer of Qi Cultivation? When did she become a Fifth Layer expert who can defeat Lu Zheng?"

"These must be what Jiang Fan gave her!"

"No wonder, no wonder she is so devoted to Jiang Fan. It turns out Jiang Fan secretly gave her so many benefits!"

"If I were Xu Youran, I would also be willing to marry Jiang Fan!"

...

Xu Youran returned to Jiang Fan's side and said softly, "Did I do everything right?"

Jiang Fan patted her head and wrote, "Why bother with a defeated dog?"

Xu Youran replied, "When flies buzz around, just take the flyswatter and swat a few times to quiet them down."

Lu Zheng, lying on the ground, clutching his burning face, was filled with hatred.

"Jiang Fan! Just you wait!"

Jiang Fan looked over and wrote, "What do you intend to do to me, Lu, the prodigy with a Nine-grade Spiritual Root?"

Hitting where it hurts most.

The misunderstanding about the Nine-grade Spiritual Root was Lu Zheng's utmost humiliation.

Lu Zheng was so angry that his eyes nearly bulged out of his head, his chest heaved violently, and his vision darkened.

Bang!

"Jiang Fan! Do you even see me?"

Wang Yingfeng slammed the table, rebuking angrily.

She could no longer tolerate Jiang Fan!

Jiang Fan earnestly wrote a sentence, "Are you worthy?"

Just these three words.

The disdain was evident on the paper!

The Xu Family members were all terrified. Was he actually openly insulting Wang Yingfeng?

Xu Youran was so scared that her heart nearly leaped out. She hastily pressed down his note and whispered, "Are you crazy?"

"At this moment, why provoke her?"

Xu Yining's eyes turned cold, glaring fiercely at Jiang Fan.

This was already the second time Jiang Fan showed disrespect to her mother!

"Jiang Fan! If you become the son-in-law of our Xu Family today, we can let this matter go, considering you as one of us. Apologize to my mother by kowtowing, and this will be over!"

"If you don't, I will surely settle this with you to the death!"

Jiang Fan also looked at Xu Yining and unceremoniously wrote, "Why should I risk my life for a woman like your mother, both malicious and foolish? Is she worthy?"

What?

Jiang Fan was still insulting Wang Yingfeng?

The Xu Family members were left in shock and awe.

"Jiang Fan has said what we've wanted to but dared not to say!"

"But he's too impulsive!"

"He's still too young to understand patience."

Xu Zhengyan felt a headache coming on.

He quickly said, "Jiang Fan, stop talking nonsense!"

He gave Jiang Fan a look, signaling him to endure for now.

The marriage between Jiang Fan and Xu Youran was in Wang Yingfeng's hands.

If Wang Yingfeng got too angry, this marriage would certainly be called off.

But it was too late to remind him now.

Wang Yingfeng, boiling with rage, grabbed a teacup and smashed it to pieces on the ground.

The boiling tea splattered onto the surrounding clan members, eliciting cries of pain.

"Jiang! Fan!" Wang Yingfeng gnashed her teeth, her body shaking as she screamed, "If I let the two of you marry today, I will write my name backwards!"

The entire hall fell silent; no one had ever seen Wang Yingfeng so furious.

They looked at Jiang Fan, all showing expressions of pity.

Xu Youran also turned pale.

There was no need to compare the betrothal gifts anymore.

The Zhu Family would definitely win.

Wang Yingfeng had already sworn publicly to write her name backwards.

She couldn't think of any reason that would make Wang Yingfeng change her mind now.

Only Jiang Fan remained unconcerned, slowly writing, "Don't worry, you will."

Xu Zhengyan wondered if Jiang Fan was insane.

He had angered her to the point of making an oath.

How could she possibly take back her words and make herself a laughing stock?

"Dear in-law, why are you so angry?"

Zhang Yuxiu, leading Zhu Jianshen, entered the hall with a smile.

Their servants carried numerous treasure boxes, filled with dazzling jewels.

Much more than last time!

Wang Yingfeng almost didn't recognize Zhang Yuxiu.

She was dressed in a purple robe, her skin smooth and rosy, her hair jet-black, and standing next to Zhu Jianshen, she didn't look much older.

Was this the effect of the Beauty-Restore Pill?

She had thought it was exaggerated hearsay.

Now she saw, Zhang Yuxiu's transformation was even more remarkable than rumors.

Her heart was filled with overwhelming jealousy.

One pill could make a woman twenty years younger.

To a woman, it was more enticing than any Divine Pill that could enhance strength.

Unfortunately, there was only one!

She greeted with a complex expression, "Just some small matters, small matters."

Zhang Yuxiu, not hiding her pride, said cheerfully, "Dear in-law, cheer up, today is a joyous day for your Xu Family."

"Shen, come and pay respects to your future mother-in-law."

Zhu Jianshen quickly smiled and said politely, "Your son-in-law, Zhu Jianshen, greets you."

Wang Yingfeng's mood still couldn't lift, and she forced a smile, "Please, sit, everyone, sit."

Returning to her seat, Wang Yingfeng's mind was elsewhere.

Especially when she noticed the Xu Family members all staring at the newly transformed, radiant Zhang Yuxiu, her mood worsened.

Xu Zhengyan, with a calm expression, asked, "Mrs. Zhu, what betrothal gifts did you bring today?"

Looking at the dazzling treasures, he was worried for Jiang Fan.

Zhu Jianshen stepped forward and said, "Allow me to introduce."

"Gold, silver, and jewels worth one million taels!"

Sss!

The Xu Family members gasped in shock!

The previously disheartened Wang Yingfeng suddenly became spirited, one million taels was astronomical!

If she had this amount of silver earlier, the Beauty-Restore Pill would have been hers yesterday.

Zhu Jianshen, satisfied with their reactions, continued, "Twenty bottles of mid-grade Qi Cultivation Liquid, worth two hundred thousand taels."

"A Yellow-Level lower technique, worth three hundred thousand taels!"

"A lower-grade Magic Artifact, worth five hundred thousand taels!"

At the mention of the Magic Artifact, Xu Yining couldn't remain seated and exclaimed, "A Magic Artifact?"

Unlike ordinary weapons, Magic Artifacts contained spiritual power.

Using one could greatly amplify the power of swordsmanship.

Such high-grade items could only be found in the Green Cloud Sect!

And they were very valuable, rewards only given to disciples with significant accomplishments.

She couldn't help but envy Xu Youran, who received such an abundant dowry.

Wang Yingfeng's face lit up with joy.

Altogether, it was worth two million taels!

"Good son-in-law, our Youran is truly fortunate to have you!" Wang Yingfeng couldn't stop smiling.

Zhu Jianshen also felt assured.

The deal was done.

He turned to look at Jiang Fan, who still looked calm, and taunted, "Jiang Fan! Weren't you quite arrogant at the auction house yesterday?"

"Now, can you show the same arrogance with your betrothal gifts today?"

"Let's see if your gifts match your arrogance?"

Jiang Fan slowly opened his eyes.

He calmly wrote a line.

"Is this all you have?"
