Chapter 900: Buddha Emperor
Jiang Yi hadn’t seen Ji Tingyu for a few years, and she turned out to be more beautiful. If she was a blooming yellow rose back then, she was a peony in full bloom right now. She stood quietly beside Wu Ni. Her aura was not very powerful, but she was like a bright pearl and attracted countless men—no less than Yi Chan and Yin Ruobing in a distance.
Ji Tingyu’s most attractive feature was her jewel-like eyes. They were completely black, without a trace of impurities. Her eyes were full of wisdom and as deep as the sea. Normally, only the holly saints or elders had such eyes. It showed her wisdom and made people involuntarily fixed their eye on her.
Wu Ni was much more matured. He no longer wandered around with his pretty maidservants; instead, he was accompanied by two Elders. His back was straight, and a faint smile was constantly on his face. He was like a spring breeze. He had a graceful bearing and extraordinary manner.
Without doubt, apart from Ji Tingyu, people who attracted most attention were Yi Chan and Yin Ruobing.
Yi Chan was in a purple dress with purple hair. She still wore the ghost king mask. Any other people would certainly appear scary on this mask, but she looked mysterious and flirtatious. She had a special aura and was like a Buddha, with dazzling light s.h.i.+ning on her back, which naturally drew people in. This aura made her look like a fairy from the Nine Heavens and not belonging to this world.
She was the precious girl of the Nine Thearch Clans, Buddha Thearch’s favorite granddaughter, a rare genius. No one had seen her face. Yi Chan was like a poisonous poppy flower. People could only appreciate her from a distance and couldn’t approach her. However, a lot of men had the extravagant hope of lifting her mask, looking at her intoxicating face, and feeling her smile which was not seen by any other men.
Things that were beyond reach were the best. All men were miserable wretches and liked to entertain those who weren’t bothered to talk to them. Those smiling Young Masters next to Yi Chan right now were like this. In contrast, Yi Chan stood indifferently; her eyes were as calm as water. She didn’t talk to any one of them and just looked at the canyon far away.
On the other hand, Yin Ruobing next to her was completely different. She was in a white dress and was like a lotus flower on the ice mountain, letting out a holy aura. She was very strange and was always barefoot. Many men were bewitched by a look at her pretty feet.
She was not as cold as Yi Chan and greeted the Young Masters around her in a smile. However, even if she was smiling, indifference oozed from her bones. As though she was sealed by snow-capped mountains and would never melt for men.
What unparalleled beauties!
This was the comment of the countless men below towards Yi Chan, Yin Ruobing, and Ji Tingyu. A lot of Young Masters walked out of their tents and looked at them in obsession. It seemed that they were going to stare at them three for a lifetime, just for them to take a look back at them.
They were dazzlingly gorgeous. Wu Ni and Ye Ying, the no.1 Young Master of the Ye Clan which was one of the Nine Thearch Clans, paled beside them. Wu Ni smiled bitterly and said, “Everyone, let’s settle down first. There are still ten days before Purgatory Ruin opens.”
Ye Ying nodded. Yin Ruobing flew down as well. Only Yi Chan stood in the mid-air with her eyes closed. No one knew what she was doing.
Jiang Yi located them with his divine senses. Anyway, divine senses were everywhere in this place, and he changed his soul spirit aura. How could detect his presence? When he saw Yi Chan stopping in mid-air, he pinpointed her in a slight hesitation. His body trembled at his findings!
It was because the instance that his divine senses were fixed on Yi Chan, she opened her eyes all of a sudden before looking towards his tent. Her calm eyes brightened up slightly as well, which gave Jiang Yi a feeling that she had seen through his tricks.
“How is this possible?”
Jiang Yi took back his divine senses immediately and was filled with doubt and surprise. He was confident that his Mirage Divine Ability could fool any normal DemiG.o.d, let alone Yi Chan.
When he went to the G.o.d Bestow City and the Situ Clan, he also used the DemiG.o.d divine senses, but no one was suspicious. How did Yi Chan discover it? Or, she didn’t notice it—it was just an accident.
“My Lady, what’s wrong?” Above the sky, a Yi Clan’s martial expert asked dubiously after glancing at dozens of tents around Jiang Yi and finding nothing.
“Nothing, let’s go!”
Yi Chan replied apathetically and flew straight down with a group of people. A lot of tents were already put up; Yi Chan went into a tent and never appeared again.
Wu Ni and Ye Ying started to exchange words with She Fei, Tu Long, and others. Yin Ruobing also accompanied the crowd with a big smile. Many young masters and young mistresses were beside them. Those young masters and young mistresses from the ancient clans showed up too. The canyon became very busy.
Jiang Yi casually looked around and withdrew his divine senses. Firstly, this group of Young Masters was just paying each other some useless compliments. Secondly, he was afraid that he couldn’t control his killing intent and startle the enemy.
Both Wu Ni and Ji Tingyu were here. Right now, it was just a matter of whether they would enter the ruin. It was highly likely that Wu Ni would go in; Jiang Yi only feared that Ji Tingyu was going to stay outside.
There were so many martial experts of different clans in the surroundings. The Nine Thearch Clans acted as one. Once any accident happened, they would join forces. Even Qi Tianchen wouldn’t handle so many martial artists. Therefore, his only chance was to take down Wu Ni and Ji Tingyu in the ruin. If not, he had to figure out some ways to take care of them on their way back to the North Thearch City.
The problem was that Wu Ni brought so many people with him this time. Perhaps, before he got close to them, he was bobbed into pieces by a round of attacks from 1,000 martial experts. Thus, it would be perfect if he could take them down in the ruin.
“Cultivate!”
Jiang Yi sat cross-legged and stopped his thoughts. If he took any action at this time, it might easily cause suspicion. He might as well stay put, cultivate in his tent, and wait for the ruin to open. As long as he entered the ruin, everything would be easier.
Time ticked away slowly. She Fei, Wu Ni, and their group called for meetings every day. Of course, very few young masters and young mistresses were eligible to go into their tents. Yi Chan never showed up; same for Ji Tingyu.
Swis.h.!.+
Ten days later, a sharp air-piercing sound came from the east. It went without saying that another top-level Heaven Fate s.h.i.+p arrived. Jiang Yi stopped his cultivation a long time ago and waited patiently for the ruin to open. Right now, he subconsciously released his divine senses.
Buzz!
The Heaven Fate s.h.i.+p disappeared in mid-air. A bald man in a white frock stood with a group of people in the sky. He didn’t have a powerful build, was not very good-looking, and didn’t even have a trace of the overbearing manner of a ruler. However, he had a very unique charisma. He was friendly and made a good impression. At a casual glance or sweep of divine senses, one would find him very kind, honest, and reliable—who would be a good friend.
“Greetings to the Buddha Emperor!”
The moment that the middle-aged man appeared, tens of thousands of Yi Clan’s martial artists genuflected and shouted simultaneously. Jiang Yi realized that this man was the Family Head of the Yi Chan, Yi Chan’s father, the Buddha Emperor.
His heart grew excited, too. The arrival of the Buddha Emperor meant that the Purgatory Ruin was about to open.
