Chapter 901: I am not Interested in Women
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Greetings to the Buddha Emperor!”
Not only the Yi Clan’s martial artists but also countless martial experts walked out of their tents and genuflected at the Buddha Emperor, even including She Fei and his group. It was not only because the Buddha Emperor was the Family Head of the Yi Clan, but also because he was at the peak of the martial dao.
The Buddha Emperor broke through the DemiG.o.d Realm at the age of 39. He was a genius even on this continent. Most importantly, he comprehended a mighty dao pattern that no one had ever seen before in history. His combat strength was just below that of the Nine Thearchs. He would certainly reach the pinnacle soon.
Jiang Yi walked out as well. If he still hid in the tent at this moment, people would get suspicious. His ten guards were beside him and genuflected too, but Jiang Yi didn’t. Many people present didn’t genuflect so he wasn’t very conspicuous.
“Is this the honor that is ent.i.tled to the peak-stage martial dao expert?”
Jiang Yi looked around and saw that at least hundreds of people bending their knees. The rest all bowed slightly. It was a very imposing and grandeur picture. His eyes brightened up subconsciously.
Why should a martial artist strive for the top?
Perhaps, some were obsessed with the martial dao and wanted to pursue mightier power, ascend to G.o.d, become immortal, and be the True G.o.d! However, more people were just after the feeling of being above billions of people. Take the current situation, for example, how honorable and pleasing it was to have millions of men kneeling in front of the person?!
The Buddha Emperor looked calm. He waved nonchalantly and said, “All rise!”
Everyone got up, stood respectfully, and looked at the Buddha Emperor quietly, waiting for him to speak. The Buddha Emperor glanced around and everyone felt as though they had looked at him in the eyes. He smiled gently and said, “The Purgatory Ruin is a good place. I went in three times when I was young and had a lot of rewards. This ruin is very magical and can cause people to forget what happened to them inside the ruin. However, the dao patterns and divine skills that you comprehend will be engraved in your memory. The Purgatory Ruin is about to open. I have three words for every one of you, don’t be greedy. In fact, the things that you comprehend inside are often more precious than cardinal treasures.”
The Buddha Emperor paused and waved at a tent below. Yi Chan flew up slowly and stood next to the Buddha Emperor who looked at Yi Chan lovingly and said, “I have a daughter who has expectations higher than the sky and looks down upon all the men in this world. She once said, “If there isn’t a man who is admitted by her to be stronger than her, she would rather spend her life alone than get married. Today, many Young Masters from esteemed clans on the East Imperial Continent and talented young men have come here, I want to ask you a question, are you willing to be looked down upon by a woman? Are you the matchless man that my little Chan’er has been waiting for 23 years? If yes, please leave the Purgatory Ruin alive!”
As soon as the Buddha Emperor finished his words, several thousand Heaven Monarchs of the Yi Clan shot out essence force at the canyon together. The canyon didn’t collapse; instead, all the stones on the cliffs shone. Following that, as a wildfire was set, the mountains on the north lit up gradually and extended into a distance.
In the end, the entire sky was brightened. Everyone was blinded by the dazzling light. Everyone’s heart trembled with amazement. It was like a gate to another world was opened.
Buzz!
Indeed, a door was opened. The light in the mountain gradually faded, but the canyon was still bright. A deep canyon appeared in people’s views. The farthest point region of the canyon turned into a tunnel, extending to the deepest part of the mountain.
A Yi Clan Elder shouted, “Everyone, listen up. Martial artists above 30 are not allowed to enter; otherwise, you will be killed by the restrictions inside. Try not to fight with each other inside and be friendly and united. You can stay in the Purgatory Ruin for one month every time and will be teleported automatically after one month. If you detect any danger and dare not to go forward, you can find a place to hide and wait for the one-month deadline! The Yi Clan is not allowed to take away any treasures that you obtain inside the ruin from you. Of course… you can also sell them to the Yi Clan. The Yi Clan will offer you a satisfying price and will escort you back to the city! Those who wish to enter the ruin may do so now.”
Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+
After the Elder finished his words, She Fei and his group flew straight in and turned into streams of light, quickly disappearing in the canyon. Jiang Yi’s eyes became as bright as the stars.
It was because both Wu Ni and Ji Tingyu went it, with only one hundred followers, who were all young men. Those older martial experts didn’t go with them!
“Thank G.o.d!”
Jiang Yi took a deep breath and prevented himself from shaking. He didn’t rush in recklessly. It was very dangerous inside, going in earlier made no difference. After so many years of treasure hunting, all the treasures on the periphery were gone. One might not have an edge by entering sooner.
“Where can the Fire-Snake Orchid be?”
Jiang Yi turned his eyes, suddenly patted his leg, and murmured in suspicion, “That’s not right. Since everyone will lose memory after living the ruin, then why does Ao Lu know the Fire-Snake Orchid is in there? Does he have some extremely powerful divine skills?”
After thinking for a while, Jiang Yi still couldn’t figure it out. He had to ask Ao Lu again when he went to the Endless Deep Sea next time. Numerous people were rus.h.i.+ng to the ruin. In only two minutes, hundreds of thousands of people entered the ruin. Most of them were a young man. Of course, there were a few young ladies. Ling Qijian’s younger sister, Ling s.h.i.+ya, went in a long time ago, same for Yin Ruobing. Jiang Yi respected them very much for this. The descendants of the Nine Thearch Clans didn’t fear death.
What made him curious was that Yi Chan was still standing beside the Buddha Emperor and looking at groups of men rus.h.i.+ng to the ruin. It appeared that she was not going in the ruin.
Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+
After two more minutes, tens of thousands of men charged in, too. There were fewer people now. After all, this h.e.l.lish ruin, for no reason, set an age limit. n.o.body knew whether it was because of the restrictions of the ruin, or the Yi Clan deliberately created it to train the youth.
“You wait here. If I don’t come out in one month, go back by yourselves!”
Jiang Yi arranged the matters with ten hired guards before rus.h.i.+ng to the front quietly. He was not very fast and kept a low profile, in fear of alarming the people above. The Buddha Emperor was up there.
“En?”
When he was just about to reach the canyon, Jiang Yi suddenly found that Yi Chan looked at him faintly and flew down gracefully, too. She was not very far behind him and flew to the canyon.
“What’s happening? Does she recognize me?”
At this moment, Jiang Yi’s soul spirit quivered. However, he appeared indifferent, with no intention of turning back and looking at Yi Chan. On the contrary, over a dozen Young Masters next to him kept looking back in excitement.
Thirty-three kilometers, three kilometers, 300 meters!
Jiang Yi let out a sigh of relief at the sight of the teleportation gate s.h.i.+mmering with white light in front. Yi Chan didn’t take any strange action; she just followed him quietly. The Buddha Emperor and the rest didn’t release their divine senses either. He shouldn’t be in any danger of being exposed.
At the gate of the ruin, he suddenly stopped, turned back, took a glance at the coquettish ghost king mask, and said coldly, “Lady Yi, why are you following me?”
“Uh…”
Many Young Masters nearby and far away were startled. There was even a person who dared to talk to Yi Chan in this way. Yi Chan following him? Who did he think he was? Did he have any dignity?
Yi Chan was stunned, too, before she said with her beautiful eyes sparkling, “This Young Master, have we met before somewhere? Why… do I find you a bit familiar?”
“Ke-Ke!”
Jiang Yi laughed coldly and said in a sneer, “Lady Yi Chan, your pickup line is cliche. I am sorry… I am not interested in women.”
After saying that, Jiang Yi turned around and rushed to the teleportation gate, leaving behind a dozen Young Masters, who felt like being struck by lightning, and Yi Chan who was so ashamed that she wanted to drill a hole in the ground and hide inside.
