Chapter 422: Invite You to Fall Into a Trap Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Jiang Yi had spoken, and so Qian w.a.n.guan and the rest dared not to differ and sailed the ship back quietly. They were quite far from the island. People on the rest of the ships were preoccupied with watching the island and preventing other clans to act first. Thus, no one noticed the Qian Clan"s ship behind them.
Qian w.a.n.guan landed the ship on an island a few miles away. Jiang Yi explored the island and quietly released the Yazi Beast. He asked everyone to remain still to wait for him before he sat on the Yazi Beast and traveled under the sea.
This Yazi Beast had great magical power. It could fly in the sky and swim in the sea. Moreover, it moved even faster in the sea. Technically, the Yazi Beast was a kind of a sea demon. It had always been under the Iced Sea during its time in the Universal Palace.
Jiang Yi"s physical strength was not bad, and he could hold his breath for over an hour. Thus, it was safe to hide under the sea. He just had to swim up for breath once every hour.
He let the Yazi Beast try to hide its aura and go beneath the sea for about three kilometers. They quickly swam back to the island where the Black Wasps resided. He could feel the great pressure in the sea, and so he sighed secretly. If he had comprehended the Water Swim sorcery left by the Witch G.o.d, he could walk in the sea as on the smooth ground. How comfortable that would be!
Soon, only after less than half an hour, Jiang Yi was near the island. He didn"t dare to come close to the fleets. Although Yazi Beast had suppressed its aura, it had yet to reach the level of a demon thearch and couldn"t hide its aura fully. On their way here, many sea demons ran away from them in fright. They would be discovered once they went close to the fleet.
He asked the Yazi Beast to take a round and go the other side of the island. After he was certain that there were no fleets on the island, he took the Yazi Beast into the Universal Palace and swam to the surface.
Boom! Boom!
Before emerging from the sea, Jiang Yi felt the island started shaking incessantly. Clearly, the martial experts of every clan over there began their attack. They were going to kill the Black Wasps together and take the honey after that.
"Buzz! Buzz!"
Countless Black Wasps flew up to the sky. They covered the sky and the ground. No one could know their exact number. Besides the Black Wasps, there were no other demonic beasts on the island. Jiang Yi was surprised and didn"t know where exactly the danger was.
What"s the danger on the island?
Looking at the thickly wooded island, Jiang Yi was perplexed. If there were any powerful demonic beasts or sea demons, they would have long been alerted now.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Millions of essence forces were lashing on the other side of the island, illuminating the sky. Horrifying aura came from there. The Black Wasps were ferocious. The atmosphere was lowered to the bottom.
They"re trying hard. The Black Wasps are no less than yesterday.
Jiang Yi glanced casually while deep doubts surfaced in his mind again upon seeing myriad Black Wasps which clouded the sky. Those people were shrewd. How could they hurry into actions before seeing the Qian Clan"s, Zhan Clan"s, and Yun Clan"s people? How could they not fear being ambushed by the three clans?
After they risked their lives and killed all the Black Wasps, they would be severely wounded and tired. In contrast, the three clan"s martial experts were preserving their energy and would strike out of nowhere. How could anyone stop the three clans from robbing them of the honey and striding off?
I should better look into the situation and see what they are doing!
Jiang Yi could have rushed onto the island straight away, taking the honey, and left by riding on the Yazi Beast—while they were in the middle of the great fight with the Black Wasps. However, eventually, he decided to play safe.
He didn"t dare to go onto the island. He dived in and swam around the island towards the battlefield. It took him less than an hour to get near the battlefield. He didn"t risk going above the sea. Instead, he released his divine senses to explore the situation around him.
It was terrible!
Other than the three clans" martial experts, all the young masters and young mistresses had arrived. However, these young masters and young mistresses gathered on a big ship, with a dozen of guards protecting them. The remaining hundreds of people scattered over a dozen ships, taking turns to attack the Black Wasps.
The toxic stings fell from the sky like a rainstorm. However, there were shields that cover the cabins. As long as martial experts kept injecting essence forces to the field, the Black Wasps" toxic stings could not break the shield.
The power of the toxic stings came from the poison; the sting itself wasn"t very tough. The rest of the warriors took turns to stand on the deck. Some were shooting essence forces to wring the toxic stings into ashes or hit them away. The rest were attacking the Black Wasps on the sky with all their might.
Because of such cooperation, safety was enhanced tremendously. At the same time, the efficiency of killing the Black Wasps increased as well. Of course, there were too many Black Wasps. Without a day and a night, they could not eliminate them all.
They are really fighting the Black Wasps?
Jiang Yi"s eyes flickered beneath the sea. He didn"t sense any clan"s martial experts sneak into the island. Obviously, all the clans had made a deal of killing all the Black Wasps first. After that, they would either seize the booty by everyone"s own abilities or split equally.
Rob or not?
Jiang Yi was conflicted. Now was the best time. As long as he sneaked into the island, he would easily obtain the Black Wasp honey. Then, he would leave quietly, without anyone knowing it.
"Wait for another six hours. If there is nothing suspicious, I"ll do it then!"
Clenching his teeth, Jiang Yi made up his mind. He didn"t return to the other side of the island. Instead, he found a reef nearby, emerged from the sea to reveal his head. Then, he waited in stealth.
After two hours, there was nothing abnormal. Many Black Wasps were killed. Two of the clansmen were dead, and five or six were injured. Everything appeared normal.
After four hours, still… nothing strange had happened.
After six hours, Jiang Yi couldn"t help himself. What mattered if there was a plot? Would they dare to send Vajra Realm martial experts to ambush him? He was with the Yazi Beast; would it matter if Eunuch Lin came here? Besides… six hours had pa.s.sed, and it was getting dark. If there were any Vajra Realm martial experts, they would have already attacked him.
Therefore, he decided to act now. He swam to the back side of the island and released the Yazi Beast. Holding the Fire Dragon Sword, he landed un.o.btrusively. After exploring with his divine senses and making sure there was no danger, he marched forward quickly. He was determined to take the honey as quickly as possible, and then he would go back immediately.
The island was large, but Jiang Yi was moving very fast. It only took him two and a half minutes to get to the center of the island. Along his way here, he didn"t detect any danger—not even a demonic beast.
"Demon king, have you sensed any danger or any aura of demonic beasts on this island?" Jiang Yi asked the Yazi Beast behind him. Shaking its head, the Yazi Beast replied, "I don"t know whether this island is dangerous; but except for the Black Wasps, there are no other demonic beasts here."
"Let"s go!"
Jiang Yi sped up abruptly, flying forward like an ape. His divine senses quickly focused on a faraway giant hive. He could smell a refreshing fragrance from a distance.
"Black Wasps" honey!"
Light flashed by Jiang Yi"s eyes, his divine senses swept around. After being certain that there was no danger around him, he didn"t hesitate and rush towards the hive like a sharp sword.
"Haha, Jiang Yi has walked into the trap!"
At the same time, a burst of silvery laughter broke out in a large room of the inner cabin on a ship off the coast.
In the room, a white crystal ball shimmered. There were two people sitting. One was the Vajra Realm Elder from the Martial Arts Hall just now. The other was obviously Ji Tingyu. They used an unknown sorcery skill; when Jiang Yi explored the surroundings with his divine senses, he surprisingly didn"t find them.
What was even more amazing was the there were two blurry images inside the crystal ball that was radiated with white light. One belonged to the Yazi Beast, the other one was Jiang Yi who was rushing towards the hive.
Ji Tingyu looked at the crystal ball, wearing a smile that could soften up any men in this world. She whispered, "Jiang Yi, in this world, who can save you this time?"
