“It is time already?”
Jiang Yi blinked his eyes groggily. He had not realized that so long had pa.s.sed; Poison Spirit had already been back for twelve days?
He shook his head. After thinking of Poison Spirit’s last sentence, he grew energized as he nodded and said, “It would be good if you are accompanying us. With you around, I will be a.s.sured.”
Originally, Jiang Yi had not thought of Poison Spirit as a candidate as he did not think the latter would be released in time and had instead considered Little Eagle King. However, now that Poison Spirit had managed to find a way out, that was the most ideal situation. Poison Spirit was the most top-notch scout in the Earth Domain, and his battle strength was considerable as well while his loyalty was not in question. He was the best candidate among those below King-Ranked Realm.
“Go!”
Jiang Yi gestured as he brought Poison Spirit and sped towards the Fire Phoenix Army camp. Qi Qingchen was wearing a white dress and carried a snow-white fox coat, making her look even more pure and beautiful.
“Jiang Yi!”
Qi Qingchen saw the duo entering as the azure pearl appeared in her hand. It was indeed flas.h.i.+ng nonstop, and the azure dragon inside kept on swimming.
“Whichever direction this dragon swims in, the Demon-Killing Palace will be found. Of course… we have to head to the Chaos Sea first!” Qi Qingchen pointed at the dragon pattern as she explained. She then paused and asked, “How are we going to get to the Chaos Sea? Should we go from the Earth Emanations Domain or the Wintry Domain?”
“Uh?”
Jiang Yi knew next to nothing about the Chaos Sea. He asked bewilderedly, “Is there a difference? We can’t go directly from the Demon-Buster Valley?”
Qi Qingchen rolled her eyes as she smiled and said, “Jiang Yi, you have so many enemies; aren’t you scared that someone would plot against you to kill you? We naturally can’t go from the Demon-Buster Valley. We can either teleport from the Earth Emanations Domain or the Wintry Domain. This way, we can prevent news of our whereabouts from leaking. Since we are going to be gone for a long time, it would naturally raise suspicions.”
“Oh, oh, I understand now!”
Jiang Yi nodded as he raised his thumb and said, “You think of everything indeed. Alright, let’s go via the Wintry Domain. That is your territory after all, and our whereabouts should be able to be contained better.”
“Alright then.”
Qi Qingchen blushed after being praised by Jiang Yi as she continued, “Qi Yue and Qi Xia, give my order that the Inspector-General and I will be heading back to the Wintry Domain for a while. During this time, the Fire Phoenix Army is allowed to act freely and take any missions they feel like. Those that want to cultivate or rest can also make arrangements. Qi Xia, follow me back while Qi Yue will hold the fort here.”
Qi Yue and Qi Xia relayed the order accordingly. The Fire Phoenix Army soldiers weren’t that surprised after hearing this news. In their eyes, Jiang Yi and Qi Qingchen’s relations.h.i.+p was complex; for them to return to see the clan elders and take in the sights was something normal.
Jiang Yi and Qi Qingchen brought Qi Yue and Poison Spirit as they all entered a Teleportation Formation and were sent to Wintry Domain. The group had just left when scouts appeared from many castles and immediately sent word to the White River Domain, the Heaven Desert Domain, and the Yellow Lion Domain.
Once the White River King, the Heaven Desert King, and the Yellow Lion King received the reports, they immediately ordered their scouts within the Wintry City to be on a lookout. After Jiang Yi and Qi Qingchen returned and paid their respects to the Wintry Sovereign and heard his advice, the two brought Poison Spirit as they entered a central hall and teleported to the Chaos Sea.
“They indeed went to the Chaos Sea…”
The Teleportation Formation lit up for full twenty-odd hours as the light from it illuminated the entire Wintry City. If they were teleporting to somewhere else in the Earth Domain, they would definitely not take so long. Hence, the scouts from the three clans deduced that Qi Qingchen and Jiang Yi had indeed gone to the Chaos Sea.
“Give orders to start executing the plan!”
The Yellow Lion King received the news, and he gave his orders. A black-robed man in his central hall cupped his hands and received his orders as he started to carry out the plan as instructed.
…
Buzz!
Jiang Yi, Qi Qingchen, and Poison Spirit were teleported for a full twenty-six hours. Besides Qi Qingchen, Jiang Yi and Poison Spirit both felt a little dizzy. They rested for almost five minutes before they both woke up.
“Eh?”
The two glanced around them as their faces were filled with shock and astonishment. White fog surrounded them; it was so concentrated that visibility was less than ten thousand feet. After they sent out their divine senses, they realized that divine senses did not work here as well.
They were on a white-jade city plaza that had nothing on it except for a few hundred huge Teleportation Formations. Ten guardians were guarding the Teleportation Formations; three of them were actually King-Ranked.
“Don’t talk so much and don’t ask too many questions; listen to my instructions!”
Qi Qingchen lowered her voice as she spoke to the duo. She then looked towards the ten elders respectfully as she bowed and asked, “My Lords, we wish to head to Chaos Island; please facilitate our teleportation.”
Nine of the elders’ eyes remained closed; only one to the left opened his mouth and said, “Ten million divine roots!”
Jiang Yi and Poison Spirit’s eyes narrowed. However, the two did not dare to say anything. Qi Qingchen was not surprised at all as she took out the stated amount of divine roots and then brought Jiang Yi and Poison Spirit to one of the Teleportation Formations.
Buzz!
That Teleportation Formation lit up again. This time, they didn’t have to travel far. Within six hours, the three appeared within a huge city.
This city was very boisterous. People were all about in the city plaza while t.i.tled Battle G.o.ds and t.i.tled G.o.d Thearchs were quite common. The lowest level martial artists here were actually all G.o.d Kings and Battle Kings; not a single G.o.d General was in sight.
“Go!”
Qi Qingchen and the other two’s appearance had attracted some attention. The problem was that Qi Qingchen’s airs were too unique. However, a veil suddenly appeared on her face, and no one could see her face. These people’s attention became a pa.s.sing thing only.
Jiang Yi and Poison Spirit knew nothing about the Chaos Sea; they could only follow Qi Qingchen’s lead. The three soon walked out of the city as Qi Qingchen then took out a war chariot. She looked at Jiang Yi and Poison Spirit and said, “Let’s talk on the chariot.”
The three flew onto the war chariot as it sped into the distance. The war chariot was actually rather s.p.a.cious and could easily seat more than ten people. This war chariot was similar to a Divine Boat, and the exterior could be seen. However, as it was all white outside the city due to the smog, visibility was very low. Furthermore, divine senses could not be used here.
“Jiang Yi, now you know why it is hard to hunt someone in the Chaos Sea, right?”
Qi Qingchen looked as Jiang Yi sized up the surroundings, grinned, and said, “The Chaos Sea is a very special place; it is like a patch of Chaos itself where there is fog everywhere. Even for me, visibility is but thirty thousand feet while my divine senses cannot be used. If you used your Art of Concealment here, who could catch you?”
“What a good place!”
Jiang Yi and Poison Spirit’s eyes lit up. Once the duo used their Art of Concealment, unless a King-Ranked formidable martial artist used divine senses to track them, they couldn’t be detected. Since Qi Qingchen said that divine senses did not work here—once they unleashed their Art of Concealment, even King-Ranked formidable martial artists would not be able to trace them.
Buzz!
Poison Spirit immediately released his Art of Concealment and spun about in the surroundings. He then resurfaced, cupped his hands, and reported, “Young Lord, everything is normal. General, what is our destination?”
“I do not know as well!”
Qi Qingchen took out the Demon-Killing Pearl, looked at it, and said, “Let’s keep heading forward. Poison Spirit, scout the front; and if anyone appears, inform us immediately so that we can avoid them and take a detour. Let’s find that palace first.”
“Understood!”
Poison Spirit’s body disappeared again as Jiang Yi and Qi Qingchen exchanged glances. They were quite relieved. With Poison Spirit here with them, they were absolutely safe and no one could get near to them without detection.
“Demon-Killing Palace!”
Jiang Yi’s gaze looked far away as his heart was filled with longing. He wondered how the Demon-Killing Palace that this mysterious and powerful Supreme Thearch had created looked like. Also… was the Demon-Killing Supreme Thearch that mysterious formidable martial artist inside the Fire Dragon Sword?
