825 All In Vain
Buzz!
Situ Yixiao suddenly released his essence force, instantly lighting up the sky. Following that, three men were transferred out. Even though there were still dozens of combat records, it appeared that Jiang Yi wasn"t in the mood to watch them.
"Jiang Yi, let"s go out first!!"
Once they were transported out, Situ Yixiao sent a voice transmission and signaled Jiang Yi to be patient. After they left the Battle Castle, he sent a voice transmission again: "These records should have been here for some years. I don"t know the ident.i.ty of that woman. I have to look for some information. You should go back first. I will catch up later."
"En!"
Jiang Yi nodded and swiftly sent a voice transmission: "Find the information about the Elder with her, too. The battle took place in the Sky Thunder Island. Besides, so many Lu Clansmen were smashed to death by that Elder. His combat strength should be very strong. I am certain that this thing was recorded by all the major clans. You must find out all the information. I have to trouble you for that."
Upon seeing that Jiang Yi was so serious, Situ Yixiao turned solemn, nodded and said, "I"ll do my best!"
Then, Situ Yixiao left quickly. Jiang Yi was still shaking slightly with excitement. Yi Piaopiao came to Sin Island before?! It seemed like she was very young when she got here and probably had not been to the Stellarsky Continent. The Elder beside her was so powerful. If they could find out who this Elder was, then Yi Piaopiao"s ident.i.ty would be clear.
Huangfu Taotian turned his eyes and sent a voice transmission too: "Jiang Yi, go back first. Since this Elder was able to kill dozens of peak-stage Heaven Monarchs with one palm strike, I reckon that he has reached the DemiG.o.d realm. If not, he is still definitely extremely well-known on the East Imperial Continent. Although I have never heard of this thing, all the great clans must keep records. It should be pretty easy to trace him."
"Em, let"s discuss it when we go back!"
Jiang Yi nodded and strode back with Huangfu Taotian, excited. It was already very dark outside. Feng Luan and Qing Yu were waiting for Jiang Yi to come back. When they noticed his excitement, Feng Luan asked for the reasons. However, Jiang Yi didn"t respond to her directly and only asked them to be patient. He walked slowly in the courtyard by himself, waiting for Situ Yixiao to come back.
Two hours later…!
Situ Yixiao returned, but he didn"t seem very happy. Seeing that Jiang Yi who looked at him with expectant eyes, he sighed softly and said, "Jiang Yi, I looked into many doc.u.ments and made the effort to ask my father and some Elders. The matter is clear. It made a huge splash back then, but… no one knew who those two people were. Not only I can"t find any information on them—in fact, everyone in the entire G.o.ds Bestow Tribe."
"What?"
Jiang Yi"s face changed greatly and asked seriously, "That Elder possesses so amazing power; how can he be unknown? Is the Tribe very familiar with the mighty martial experts on the East Imperial Continent?"
"Be patient, I will tell you the story in details!"
Situ Yixiao smiled in exasperation before saying, "This mysterious young lady and the Elder appeared in the Tribe for more than 20 years ago. They entered from the west and went straight to the White Dragon Archipelago. Originally, they handed in the celestial stones and were free to move in the tribe. However, they seemed to be attracted by the Thunder-Gathering Array on the Sky Thunder Island, and that was why they went to the Sky Thunder Island.
"The young lady was very beautiful, but that Elder hid his strength and looked like an old servant of hers. Naturally, the slaves on the Sky Thunder Island had some evil thoughts. As a result… the young lady directly killed dozens of people inside the city! As you have stayed in the Sky Thunder City, fights are not allowed in the city. As expected, the Lu Clansmen were enraged so what was recorded happened. At that time, over a dozen Lu Clan Elders happened to be consolidating the Thunder-Gathering Array. However, they were all injured by the Elder"s single slap. Still, no one lost his life; it was like the Elder showed mercy to them.
"After the Elder slapped them—instead of panicking, he strode off with the young lady and traveled inside the G.o.ds Bestow Tribe publicly. The two old men of the Lu Clan were alerted so were the other clans. After all, two strange powerful martial experts suddenly invaded their territory, what if they were people of the Nine Thearch Clan?
"Two old folks of the Lu Clan stopped the young lady and the Elder in the G.o.d Bestow Sea. Even the Lei Clan Head and Nangong Clan Head were to watch the battle. In the end… the Lu Clan"s two old guys were slapped, too! However, they didn"t die. No one knew whether the Elder showed mercy or he was unable to kill them. When the Lei Clan Head was about to turn on the Nine Dragons" G.o.d-Extinguishing Array to stop this Elder, he flew straight to the sky with the young lady with incredibly fast speed. They left the G.o.ds Bestow Tribe and disappeared before the array was turned on.
"After that, all the thirteen clans looked up a lot of doc.u.ments and records and sent many scouts to the East Imperial Continent and the Mystic realm to find them. However… there was no information about this young lady and the Elder. We could be certain about one thing—they were definitely not the descendants of the Nine Thearch Clans. It was like they appeared from nowhere and never showed up on the East Imperial Continent or the G.o.ds Bestow Tribe. Thus, this matter is left unsettled. Back then, the thirteen clans also banned all discussion about it. After all, it was not good for the name of the thirteen clans so very few outsiders know about it. If I didn"t look up the file this time, I am afraid I wouldn"t know this history."
"Uh…"
It was also Huangfu Taotian"s first time to hear about it. He couldn"t help feeling puzzled. What was strange was not about the combat power of this Elder, but the fact that the men of the thirteen clans had no way to find out the ident.i.ties of such mighty figures.
Jiang Yi was dumbfounded, too. He felt that his excitement was put off by cold water. He thought that he was going to easily trace Yi Piaopiao"s ident.i.ty and then find her. Never did he expect that his hope was all in vain.
When Situ Yixiao saw the disappointment in Jiang Yi"s eyes, he sighed softly and comforted him. "Jiang Yi, that Elder"s combat strength is so powerful. He has definitely reached the DemiG.o.d Realm and can easily live for 500 years. Besides, he is so fast that even the Lei Clan Head can"t stop him so he may be still alive. As long as he is not dead, there is a hope of finding him. Oh right… what"s the matter between you and that young lady?"
Huangfu Taotian looked at Jiang Yi with curiosity, too. The relationship between that young lady and the Elder at the DemiG.o.d Realm was absolutely unusual. If Jiang Yi had a past with that young lady, then he might be connected to that DemiG.o.d Elder.
Jiang Yi glanced at them, remained silent for a while, and whispered, "That young lady… is my mom. I hope that you will keep my secret!"
"Uh!"
Situ Yixiao and Huangfu Taotian looked at each other. Their eyes were filled with surprise. They never expected Jiang Yi had such a background. Situ Yixiao soon realized something and asked softly, "That young lady can"t be Yi Piaopiao, right?"
"Yes, she is!"
Jiang Yi nodded and looked despondent. The name of Yi Piaopiao was well-known on the entire East Imperial Continent because of Qian w.a.n.guan"s effort. If she was hiding in the East Imperial Continent, then she would definitely receive the message. Since she knew a DemiG.o.d martial expert—after such a long time, she should have already come to the G.o.ds Bestow Tribe. If she didn"t come here personally, she would have sent someone to contact him!
However, Qian w.a.n.guan didn"t receive any information on this matter, which meant that it was highly likely that Yi Piaopiao was dead, or she was not on the East Imperial Continent.
"Yu Wen?"
An idea occurred to Jiang Yi. Was that Elder Yu Wen? A raging fire was ignited in his heart again. He was dying to leave the G.o.ds Bestow Tribe right now, travel through the East Imperial Continent to find Yu Wen, and ask him about Yi Piaopiao.
