Chapter 537: Conquering the World Together
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
In the end, Jiang Yi did not do the inhumane thing. Even though he did not consider himself as a good person, but one had to have a limit. Furthermore, it wasn’t the right time to do something like that as well.
Buzz!
With a flash of his Fire Spirit Pearl, a small palace appeared in his hand. He peered into it using his divine senses and saw the Yazi Beast sleeping soundly in the main hall. The little fox had also retreated into its chambers. Jiang Xiaonu and Zhan Wushuang were diligently cultivating, while Yun Fei was comprehending the restrictions. Only Qian w.a.n.guan was sitting alone in his room, letting out a long sigh from time to time.
Shh-shh-shh!
Qing Yu obediently took off her clothes and changed into a new set of clothes. After taking a recuperation elixir, she sat down to meditate and recuperate from her injuries. Both Qing Yu and the Phoenix Cry Thearch had become Jiang Yi’s soul slaves. Changing clothes aside, even if he had requested for her to strip naked and pleasure him, she would not have the ability to refuse.
Jiang Yi took one look at Qing Yu and gathered his essence force in his hand. In a flash of light, a chubby figure appeared out of thin air. Qian w.a.n.guan looked around in confusion. He caught sight of the Thearch and Qing Yu and couldn’t help but stare intently at the both of them. He swallowed incessantly. He wasn’t even able to resist against one of such beauties, but now there were two of them?
Cough, cough!
Speechless, Jiang Yi rolled his eyes. This fatty was so smitten that he did not even see Jiang Yi. He cleared his throat and said, “Fatty Qian, your eyes are about to fall out of their sockets.”
“Ah? Boss!”
Qian w.a.n.guan’s entire body trembled, and his gaze swept towards Jiang Yi. Looking at his casual expression, he scrambled over and asked in a hushed tone, “Boss, who are these two G.o.ddesses? They are so powerful, and where is this place? How did you manage to hook up with G.o.ddesses of such beauty? No wonder you’re the Boss; you definitely have a way with the ladies…”
“Alright, enough nonsense.”
Jiang Yi rolled his eyes yet again. He did not take Qian w.a.n.guan out simply to chat. His main concern was that being alone in the Thearch Palace would cause Qian w.a.n.guan to be bored to tears. Any longer, he would probably go insane.
Qian w.a.n.guan did not have much talent; neither did he enjoy cultivating. The others had all went into seclusion, and time would pa.s.s quickly for them. He was going to the East Imperial Continent, and at this point, he did not know how much longer his journey would take. Qian w.a.n.guan was like a brother to Jiang Yi, and he had no intention of seeing him suffer.
Jiang Yi’s eyes flickered quickly and asked quietly, “w.a.n.guan, do you want to become an expert within a short period of time?”
“An expert?”
Qian w.a.n.guan blinked in confusion, not quite understanding what Jiang Yi had meant. After all this time, he only barely managed to attain the fifth stage of the Purple Mansion Realm. What difference would it make even if he was given a chance to refine the celestial stones? At most, he would reach the peak stage of the Soul Travel Realm. To Jiang Yi, there probably is no difference between the peak stage of the Soul Travel Realm and a Cast Tripod Realm warrior, right?
Hurriedly, he shook his head and said, “Boss, I think you shouldn’t waste the celestial stones on me. In terms of martial arts skills, I am a good-for-nothing. I think it would be best if you kept it for yourself.”
“Hehe!”
Jiang Yi smiled mysteriously, “Even if I am able to help you reach… the peak stage of the Vajra Realm in a couple of years, would you still refuse?”
“What?”
Qian w.a.n.guan’s fat body began to shake while his eyes filled with disbelief. Standing at the side, the corner of the Phoenix Cry Thearch’ mouth twitched. She vaguely understood what Jiang Yi had meant.
“Boss, are you sure you’re not running a fever?”
Qian w.a.n.guan blinked and even attempted to use his hands to feel Jiang Yi’s forehead to check his temperature.
What exactly was the peak stage of the Vajra Realm?
The peak stage of Vajra Realm was to be a top-cla.s.s martial artist. The strongest in the Stellarsky Continent, Shui Youlan, was just at the peak stage of the Vajra Realm. Now Jiang Yi said that he would help Qian w.a.n.guan attain this level of strength in one to two years? If Jiang Yi wasn’t the one who said it, Qian w.a.n.guan would have slapped him a long time ago and told him to p.i.s.s off.
“Keke! When have I ever lied to you?”
Jiang Yi gave a faint smile and turned his attention to the Thearch and asked with extended, “Feng Er, go and retrieve three of the soul spirit dao pattern shards for me!”
As expected…!
The Phoenix Cry Thearch grimaced. Jiang Yi was indeed trying to make use of her. However, as a soul slave, how could she even think about disobeying his direct orders?
With a flash of the white ring on her finger, three intricate jade boxes appeared. Respectfully, she handed it to Jiang Yi and said, “Master, here are three mid-grade soul spirit dao pattern shards. Once at the peak stage of Soul Travel Realm, one should easily be able to refine it. Once all of these shards are refined, one would be able to reach the peak stage of Vajra Realm. Of course… one must first refine sufficient celestial stones.”
“Mas… Master? Soul spirit dao pattern shards?”
Qian w.a.n.guan’s lips trembled while his hands were shaking non-stop. This lady with unfathomable power, who seemed to have an aura more terrifying than Jiang Yi, actually called him Master? Also, these so-called soul spirit dao pattern shards could really help him attain the peak stage of the Vajra Realm?
Pa!
Jiang Yi smacked Qian w.a.n.guan on the back of his head and spoke in an angered tone, “Look at you, a good-for-nothing, don’t you go and mention that you are a brother of mine to others. Hold on to the dao pattern shard. Feng Er, how many celestial stones do you have? Hand me some of them; I will return them to you in the future.”
The corner of the Thearch’ mouth twitched yet again, though her ring still lit up. This time, she retrieved a large jade box which was easily the size of a man’s head. Even though her heart was filled with resentment, her tone remained cordial as she said, “Master, here are one thousand celestial stones. It should be sufficient for this Young Lord to train and attain the peak stage of the Vajra Realm.”
Gulp, Gulp!
Qian w.a.n.guan swallowed incessantly while every inch of his obese body trembled. He could tell that Jiang Yi wasn’t joking. The lady’s had incredible strength, and she casually retrieved a thousand celestial stones, which was no laughing matter. This time, Jiang Yi was serious about shaping him to attain the peak stage of the Vajra Realm.
Honestly, who wouldn’t wish to become a martial expert, to part mountains and seas with a flip of the hand, to crush all who stood in his way?
Qian w.a.n.guan was no idiot. One of the reasons why he did not enjoy training was firstly due to his lack of talent. Secondly, it was the influence of the Qian Clan. When it came to business, the Qian Clan was second to none. In order to succeed in business, a lot of time and effort had to be put in it. How could he have extra time for cultivation?
In this world that viewed martial arts with supremacy, everyone dreamt of one day becoming an expert—even for the Qian Clan who took the path less traveled. After watching how Jiang Yi rose to fame and have the strength to eliminate his obstacles, it would be a lie if Qian w.a.n.guan was to say that he didn’t envy Jiang Yi.
At the Mt. Spirit Beast College, Qian w.a.n.guan had used his clan’s Secret Art of Judgment and predicted Jiang Yi’s future to be limitless. From then on, he had followed him without hesitation. After spending time with Jiang Yi, his initial purpose of making use of the relations.h.i.+p developed into a genuine friends.h.i.+p. Now, he was steadfast in his loyalty towards Jiang Yi as a boss, and the Qian Clan had followed suit in their relentless support for him.
The fact had proven it!
Jiang Yi truly did not disappoint him. The Qian Clan did gain many benefits from Jiang Yi. On the other hand, by accompanying him on his journey to the East Imperial Continent, Qian w.a.n.guan’s future was now filled with uncertainties; and he might perish at any time. Even so, he had absolutely no regrets.
At this moment…
Jiang Yi was here to reciprocate and was prepared to present him with such a generous gift, one that he could not bear to accept.
“Boss, this, this…”
Upon studying Jiang Yi’s sincere gaze, Qian w.a.n.guan took a deep breath as though he was about to say something. However, he decided to hold his tongue.
Jiang Yi understood what Qian w.a.n.guan had meant to convey and chuckled. He thrust the large jade box into his hands and said, “Take it! Cultivate your skills and develop them. In the future, we shall conquer the world together as brothers.”
“En!”
Qian w.a.n.guan nodded solemnly. While he was placing the items in the ancient divine essence ring, he deliberately faced away from him as he did not wish for Jiang Yi to see him in tears.
“Ke-Ke!”
Jiang Yi left the Phoenix Cry Thearch to instruct Qian w.a.n.guan on how to refine the shards and stood aside, with his heart br.i.m.m.i.n.g with satisfaction.
The idea to let Qian w.a.n.guan refine the dao pattern shards was not out of the blue. He had seriously contemplated the matter before coming to this conclusion.
Refining the celestial stones and soul spirit dao pattern shards might allow one to increase their strength immensely in a short period of time, but they would be stuck at this strength level for the rest of their lifetime.
He definitely would not do it as he was already unrivaled in the Vajra Realm. Personally, he wanted to search for the Dest.i.tute Dragon Gra.s.s to reform his body. Why would he destroy his own future like this?
Zhan Wushuang had aspired to be a martial expert, but even if he was given the opportunity, he would have rejected it. Yun Fei and Zhan Wushuang were of one mind. Jiang Xiaonu had a unique technique. Even if she had agreed, it would not have much effect on her.
Therefore, when he refined the Phoenix Cry Thearch’ soul seal, he found out that she still had five soul spirit dao pattern shards, which led him to this plan. Ultimately, Qian w.a.n.guan was the most suitable person to refine the dao pattern shards.
Watching how Qian w.a.n.guan listened earnestly at the Thearch’ explanation while drooling at her ravis.h.i.+ng beauty, Jiang Yi suddenly had a bad premonition.
If this wretched fatty had attained the peak stage of the Vajra Realm, how many fair maidens would then fall prey to him…?
