Chapter 1565: It
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
He Buyu was a little lost for words. A Little Eagle King had appeared beforehand; now another Jiang Yi had come? Was it because times were really different? Were all young people nowadays that wild and reckless?
As for Jiang Yi, He Buyu still had a sliver of affection for his gifts and talent. After all, not everyone could stay within the Purgatory Mystic Realm for twenty days. He had been the guardian of the Purgatory Mystic Realm for some years, and the most he had seen was a teenager that had lasted for three days. That was already considered a feat.
Buzz!
Although he cherished such a talent, his aura started to surge as a killing intent entered his eyes. If Jiang Yi dared to enter and kill the young masters, he wasn’t going to go easy on Jiang Yi. He had not left this place for many years, and many in the Earth Domain had probably forgotten about him and didn’t know that he had a nickname called Furious G.o.d. A King-Ranked formidable martial artist’s dignity and pride could not be so easily sullied—no matter who!
“Sigh…”
The Little Eagle King sensed that He Buyu’s killing aura was rising as his eyes dimmed slightly. While He Buyu did not dare to kill him, he definitely dared to kill Jiang Yi. All formidable martial artists had dignity and pride; whoever dared to sully this would have to be cleansed with blood.
His eagle-like eyes s.h.i.+fted as he tried to think of any way to save Jiang Yi’s life. He did not want Jiang Xiaonu to hate him for the rest of his life. Perhaps he also cherished a talent like Jiang Yi and did not want such an outstanding talent to die in the Purgatory Mystic Realm.
“Oh, right!”
He suddenly thought of something as his eyes lit up. He shouted towards Jiang Yi, who was about to rush into the light s.h.i.+eld, and said, “Jiang Yi, wait!”
“En?”
Jiang Yi turned and looked below at the Little Eagle King. The latter rushed upwards as he sent a voice transmission: “Jiang Yi, stop killing; let’s go and rescue your three wives first.”
“They can be rescued?”
The red glow in Jiang Yi’s eyes dimmed as they regained their icy-cold like nature. He had been on a killing spree as he did not have a way to save Yi Chan and company. Seeing Yi Chan and the others being taken away in front of him, his heart had grown extremely anxious; and he was about to lose it. If he could save them, he definitely wanted to.
Ren Tianfan had a cardinal treasure that could actually tear through s.p.a.ce and enter the spatial zone? Although formidable martial artists could also create cracks in s.p.a.ce, those was extremely unstable. These cracks were also very small, and if one entered them, they could easily be twisted and bent by the spatial zone and be minced to death. Furthermore, Jiang Yi did not have a Chaos Divine Boat; he would definitely die in the spatial zone. Even if he didn’t, where was he going to find Ren Tianfan?
“Of course, they can!”
Little Eagle King hurriedly continued his voice transmission: “My claws can tear through s.p.a.ce and bring you to the spatial zone. I also have a Chaos Divine Boat. Most importantly, I know where Ren Tianfan is going!”
“Really?”
Jiang Yi’s eyes lit up like stars. Yi Chan and company’s lives were everything to him. He could come back and kill Bai Ditian and Qiu Ren another time; it was more pressing to save them first.
“Of course! Would I lie?”
Little Eagle King had recuperated for a while, and his injuries had gotten better. However, many of his bones had not healed completely yet. He looked at the three Ink Feather Race formidable martial artists around him as he shouted, “Get ready!”
The trio did not dare to go against Little Eagle King’s command. Although this rescue mission could potentially be very dangerous, no one dared to disobey the Little Eagle King. Jiang Yi saw that Little Eagle King was not joking as he hurriedly gathered his Sword Emanations Race beings into his Wintry Pearl.
Buzz!
After Jiang Yi collected all the Sword Emanations Race beings, the horn on Little Eagle King’s head lit up as his hands became eagle claws, flashed with light, and clawed at the s.p.a.ce around him.
Scree—
An ear-piercing sound rang out as the s.p.a.ce was clawed and torn by Little Eagle King. The three members of the Ink Feather Race immediately transformed as six green claws reached forward and clawed the torn s.p.a.ce even bigger. Little Eagle King shouted, “Jiang Yi, inside, hurry!”
Swis.h.!.+
Jiang Yi had detested Little Eagle King previously. However, the Little Eagle King had sent him a voice transmission before he had entered the Purgatory Mystic Realm then; and his perception of the Little Eagle King had changed. At this moment, he completely trusted the Little Eagle King as he plunged into the hole.
The Little Eagle King did not trick Jiang Yi as he followed into the spatial zone. The three Ink Feather Race members also speedily rush inside. Following that, the hole began to mend swiftly as peace returned.
…
“Huhu…”
After almost a minute, the ordinary soldiers below, the clerical officers, Qiu Ren, Bai Ditian, and other young masters on the mountain peak finally breathed out in relief. Their hearts were still palpitating while fear still could be seen in their eyes.
Everyone felt as if they had been on the verge of death. Bai Ditian and Qiu Ren, in particular, had seen many of their ‘brothers’ and ‘friends’ die in front of them; they were terrified to the core, and their bodies were still slightly trembling.
“Huuu!”
The guardian He Buyu also breathed out slightly. If he didn’t have to, he didn’t want to kill Jiang Yi. After all, they were all humans. Jiang Yi was so gifted: if he was given a few years or tens of years to grow, how powerful could he become? It was unimaginable!
“Sigh…”
He Buyu thought about the great family clan young masters that had died as he sighed deeply. Jiang Yi had killed so many people this time; would the great family clans let him off? Would the three Heavenly Kings let him live?
Buzz!
At this moment, the spot where Jiang Yi and company disappeared suddenly trembled a little as a small crack appeared. Following that, He Buyu felt a silver light flash by as that crack disappeared once again.
“This…”
His luminous eyes suddenly widened; what was that thing? Someone of his level of attainment actually couldn’t detect that thing’s true self? If he hadn’t been that close by, he probably wouldn’t have even noticed anything at all. Of course, Bai Ditian and company had not discovered anything.
“Could it be it?”
He Buyu murmured. He did not know who ‘it’ was. He only knew that there was a very terrifying presence in the Purgatory Mystic Realm. As for whether this presence was human, beast, or demon; he didn’t know. He was not even able to make out its true self.
“Why did it follow Jiang Yi? Could it be that Jiang Yi had survived here for twenty days because of it? Or… could it be Jiang Yi had offended it, and it is pursuing him?” He Buyu murmured gently again. Unfortunately, he couldn’t leave this place; if not, he would definitely go and take a look.
Roar! Roar!
In the distance, a small number of Lunar Beasts were charging this way again. He Buyu looked at the remaining Heaven-Splitting Army soldiers as he ordered helplessly, “All are to gather near the light s.h.i.+eld. I will help you guys fend them off for a while.”
…
Tsk! Tsk!
A few hours later, spatial fluctuations near the mountain peak could be felt as a crack appeared. That crack kept on widening as a black shadow appeared from it.
This scared Bai Ditian and company beyond measure; was Jiang Yi back? The guardian immediately sent his divine senses over, thinking that ‘it’ had returned. After everyone scanned the shadow, they all relaxed immediately. A Phantom Race formidable martial artist had come. Since this formidable martial artist had torn s.p.a.ce to come here, he probably was someone from the Demon-Buster Army’s Scout Hall.
Swis.h.!.+
That black shadow was enveloped within a black robe as he flew until the edge of the light s.h.i.+eld and respectfully bowed to He Buyu. He then said, “I am the Demon-Buster Army Scout Hall Commander Yi Zu. The three Commanders-in-chief had ordered me to come and investigate why and how the Teleportation Formation had exploded. Also, why had so many people died here?”
“Commander Yi! It is Jiang Yi, that fiend…”
Bai Ditian and Qiu Ren were like children who had been bullied and saw an adult coming to them. They cried and wailed as they explained everything. They actually did not try to twist the facts. Of course, they didn’t mention trying to plot to harm Poison Spirit, Yi Chan, and company. From their words, it seemed as if Poison Spirit and Jiang Yi bore all the responsibility and blame while the Little Eagle King was unforgivable as well.
“Jiang Yi and Little Eagle King went to hunt Ren Tianfan?”
Yi Zu heard this and his face immediately changed. While others did not know—as the Scout Hall Commander, he knew very well that the Divine Yang Mystic Realm was near the Purgatory Mystic Realm. Ren Tianfan definitely had escaped to the Divine Yang Mystic Realm; Jiang Yi and company had probably gone there to find him.
The Divine Yang Mystic Realm was the Divine Yang Race’s home base. If Jiang Yi and Little Eagle King really went in and started a slaughter, wouldn’t Heavenly King You go berserk? So many young masters had already died; if more people died and this matter grew bigger and bigger, wouldn’t the entire Earth Domain be riled up?
