Wu Shattered Star River

“Yes, we're heading straight back to the Ancient God Star Region!”

Tian Yuan didn't want any more complications. Although returning to the Myriad Buddha Hall would allow them to teleport to Buddha Light City, which would be faster, who knew what might happen on Mount Ling?

It was safer to travel directly through the endless void.

“Hmm…”

Tian Yuan thought for a moment and said, “Don't release Xuan Ji just yet. Keep her in the Heavenly Beast Cauldron until we're clear of this area, then let her return.”

If they released Xuan Ji now, she would definitely report their activities to Mount Ling, revealing their location. What if the God Race or Demon Race intercepted them in the endless void?

Jiang Han touched his nose, remembering Xuan Ji's mental state. Even if he drove her away now, she probably wouldn't leave, right?

“Tian Mo, you go inside. Don't expose yourself unless absolutely necessary, or your family will be in danger!”

Tian Yuan thought for a moment and said to Tian Mo, who bowed gratefully to him.

He took out a cloak and put it on, then bowed to Jiang Han, saying, “Young Master Jiang, thank you for your trouble.”

Jiang Han took Tian Mo into the Heavenly Beast Cauldron, and he and Tian Yuan flew toward a distant star. They needed to determine their approximate location in order to decide on a return route.

After flying for about half an hour, they arrived near the star, but it seemed to be a dead star. There were no living beings inside, and no chaotic aura surrounded it. It was barren and empty.

“Let's go!”

Tian Yuan took Jiang Han and flew toward another star in the distance. Jiang Han was slow, so he carried him directly.

After flying for seven or eight hours, they found that the stars there were also dead, not interfaces. Without spiritual energy, there were no living beings, so they couldn't determine their location.

Jiang Han frowned and said, “Uncle Yuan, how about I try using Star Flash Teleportation?”

“You can try!”

Tian Yuan nodded and entered the Heavenly Beast Cauldron. Jiang Han released the Star Flash secret technique. A hexagram array appeared, then fluctuated, and Jiang Han disappeared from the spot.

This time, Jiang Han didn't know how far he had teleported, or in what direction. As soon as he appeared, he immediately looked around and saw a huge star in the distance.

He released Tian Yuan, and the two flew toward the huge star.

Before they even got close, Tian Yuan nodded and said, “This is a large interface. There must be scouts on the periphery. Stay here. I'll go capture a scout and bring him back.”

“Okay!”

Jiang Han flew to a nearby void meteorite and hid. Tian Yuan flew away quickly, soon becoming a small black dot.

After about half an incense stick's worth of time, Tian Yuan returned, bringing with him a strange race. The creature's eyes were vacant, obviously having been soul-searched by Tian Yuan.

Tian Yuan's expression was not good, and he exuded a faint killing intent.

Jiang Han sensed it and flew over, asking, “Uncle Yuan, is this not the territory of the Myriad Buddha Hall?”

“It is!”

Tian Yuan said in a deep voice, “This interface is called the Void Realm, a large interface of the Myriad Buddha Hall. The race inside is the Flying Fork Race, one of the major races under the Buddha Sect.”

Jiang Han frowned and asked, “Then what's the problem? Why are you angry, Uncle Yuan? Did something happen?”

“There's nothing wrong here. Something happened in the Ancient God Star Region!”

Tian Yuan pondered for a moment and decided to tell Jiang Han, saying, “Some time ago, the Demon Race sent troops to attack the Ancient God Star Region, saying they were avenging Xue Qingtian and Xue Xiao.”

“The first wave sent three major clans and a dozen Emperor-level experts, but they were defeated by Tian Tuo, Gu Yin Dan, and the others.”

“Recently, the Demon Race's second-ranked Great Demon, Xue Yao, and fifth-ranked Xue Xun, two Heavenly Emperor-level powerhouses, led thirty Emperor-level experts to attack. We don't know what the situation is now…”

“What?”

Jiang Han's expression changed drastically. Two Heavenly Emperor-level experts? Leading thirty Emperor-level experts? How could Tian Tuo and the others resist? Even if Jiang Hen Shui came out, it would be useless, right?

Jiang Han quickly asked, “Can my father defeat Xue Yao and Xue Xun?”

“He can't…”

Tian Yuan said truthfully, “Xue Yao's combat power is about the same as the Violet Firmament Heavenly Emperor. Even if Marshal Xue Yao used the Azure Flower Sword Intent, he couldn't win.”

“This…”

Jiang Han's face turned as pale as snow. His family, loved ones, and friends were all in the Ancient God Star Region. If Jiang Hen Shui couldn't hold on, wouldn't everyone die?

“Don't worry!”

Tian Yuan comforted him, “Young Master, the Marshal has experienced hundreds of battles. What kind of situation hasn't he seen? Don't worry, he will definitely have a way to deal with it. At worst, he will arrange for everyone to be safe and then lure the enemies away!”

“Okay!”

Jiang Han nodded slightly, but his heart was still filled with unspeakable worry.

He paused for a moment and said, “Shall we return immediately at the fastest speed?”

“Not so fast!”

Tian Yuan repeated again, “The two of us going back only adds two Emperor-level experts and one King-level expert, which won't have any impact on the overall situation!”

“I'll go into the Void Realm to gather intelligence first. This scout's level is too low, he probably doesn't know the specific battle reports. I'll go in and find a higher-level Flying Fork Race member to find out the recent battle reports before deciding how to proceed.”

“Alright!”

Jiang Han took two deep breaths, forcing himself to calm down. Tian Yuan said, “You stay here. If you encounter the enemy, release Tian Mo. If the situation is not right, you two retreat directly. I will investigate the intelligence as quickly as possible and then return.”

After Tian Yuan finished speaking, he left. Jiang Han could only continue to lurk on the void meteorite.

Outside the Void Realm in the distance, there were scouts patrolling, but they didn't patrol this way. Jiang Han waited anxiously, and waited for four or five days.

“咻!”

Tian Yuan finally returned. His expression was not as grave as before. Jiang Han immediately greeted him and said, “How is the situation?”

Tian Yuan explained, “A month and a half ago, Xue Yao led Xue Xun into the Ancient God Tomb, but Xue Yao and Xue Xun were lured into the Ancestral God Tomb by the Marshal.”

“Tian Tuo and the others have already settled everyone, and are now constantly ambushing using the strange terrain of the Ancient God Star Region. The situation has reached a stalemate. There should be no major problems there for the time being.”

“呼呼!”

Jiang Han breathed a sigh of relief. Since Jiang Hen Shui had a plan, then Yan Qin, Jiang Li, and Si Li were definitely safe, at least he didn't have to worry about his family and loved ones being killed.

“Ancestral God Tomb?”

Jiang Han then became worried again, asking, “That place is so dangerous. Xue Yao and Xue Xun went in to hunt down my father. Can my father withstand it?”

“Don't worry!”

Tian Yuan said very confidently, “The Marshal is resourceful and wise. Since he lured these two Great Demons in, it means he has a good chance, at least to survive.”

Jiang Han nodded and said, “Then we should return immediately? With you and Tian Mo, it will be much easier for us to suppress the remaining Emperor-level experts of the Demon Race.”

“No…”

Tian Yuan shook his head and said, “I don't want to go back. Two more Emperor-level experts won't make much of a difference, and even if we defeat the remaining Demon Race army, the Sky Demon Cave might send more Emperor-level experts.”

“I have a bold idea, Young Master. Are you willing to take a risk with me?”

“Take a risk?”

Jiang Han was stunned and asked, “How?”

Tian Yuan said murderously, “We'll go to the Demon Race's territory and turn it upside down, forcing the Demon Race to retreat!”
