“Jiang Yi?”
Countless people in the Demon-Buster Valley reacted in the same way as Ren Tianfan, Bai Ditian, and the others did when they first saw Jiang Yi. Their eyes filled with confusion. At the exact same time, they felt a strange temptation to laugh at the ridiculous turn of events. The three commanders exchanged a meaningful look. Then, Heavenly King You shouted in a cool tone, “Yi Zu, what are you saying? Jiang Yi is alive? Are you sure?”
Yi Zu nodded solemnly and said, “I’m sure. I went to Purgatory Mystic Realm and investigated the matter thoroughly. Jiang Yi did not die. He killed nearly all the junior and senior commanders of the Heaven-Splitting Army. Apart from Bai Ditian, Qiu Yi, and a few other people; all the other young masters are dead. General Ren cut through space and ran away. The Little Eagle King led Jiang Yi to hunt him down. Commander-in-Chief You, don’t ask too many questions. Otherwise, you would only make it in time to collect your clansmen’s corpses...”
“Jiang Yi, you bastard!”
Heavenly King You roared in rage. He immediately charged towards his castle where a private Teleportation Formation led him to the Divine Yang Mystic Realm. Yi Zu could not have been lying about something like this. Naturally, Heavenly King You did not dare to ask any more questions. He knew full well that the Purgatory Mystic Realm was very near the Divine Yang Mystic Realm. With the Little Eagle King leading the way, Jiang Yi had a high chance of making it into the Divine Yang Mystic Realm.
Jiang Yi was even hunting Ren Tianfan down. His battle skills must have surpassed Ren Tianfan’s. There were many formidable martial artists in the Divine Yang Mystic Realm, but there was no King-Ranked martial artist! Fear filled his heart. If the Divine Yang Mystic Realm was massacred, their Divine Yang Race would have suffered in silence and worked so hard to preserve their bloodline for no reason.
“Go!”
Heavenly King Wu and Heavenly King Long exchanged a meaningful glance. Both of them had complicated expressions. They did not know whether to feel surprised or shocked by Jiang Yi’s survival. However, on hearing that Jiang Yi had killed so many people, both of them became outraged.
Both of them thought that Jiang Yi was behaving in an extremely demonic manner. He did not care for anything else when he acted, and he killed without any thought for the consequences. He had killed so many young masters, rendering both of them clueless as to what to do next. All they could do was capture him before deciding their next move.
“Something isn’t right...”
Halfway on the journey, Heavenly King Wu suddenly stopped and turned to Heavenly King Long. “Old Long, stay behind in Demon-Buster Valley and look out for anything strange. So many young masters have died; there is no way we can keep this information under wraps. When the clan heads of the various family clans come, ask them to sit tight and withhold their anger. I will go take Jiang Yi down personally and give them a proper explanation!”
“Alright!”
Heavenly King Long pondered about this for a while and figured out that there was logic behind what Heavenly King Wu was saying. The young masters must have had foundational jade talismans on them. The moment they died, their foundational jade talismans would have been destroyed, informing their family clans of their deaths. The various clans were likely to come to the Demon-Buster Valley soon to ask for an explanation. If both of them left and no one remained behind to control the crowd, the Demon-Buster Valley would be turned upside down.
Heavenly King Wu charged into Heavenly King You’s castle just as the latter was getting ready to teleport. Heavenly King You did not say anything. Instead, his eyes glowed red. The Teleportation Formation lit up, and the two of them disappeared into it.
...
After they left, the Demon-Buster Valley immediately burst into a flurry of activity. Countless message transmitting secret formations were activated as message after message was sent to the various great family clans. Many people also sent messages to Yi Zu, asking him about what had happened.
Heavenly King Long asked around for a clearer picture of the situation and then his expression darkened. Yi Zu had not told them everything that had happened in full detail because he had been rushing. He left out some things that he had seen and heard personally as well as what Bai Ditian and the others had told him.
There seemed to be a little loophole in Yi Zu’s message. However, what was certain was that the Teleportation Formation was indeed broken by the Little Eagle King. This was no big deal; the Ink Feather Race was powerful and successful. It would not hurt them at all to rebuild another Teleportation Formation.
The key thing was that the junior and senior commanders of the Heaven-Splitting Army and all the Demon-Killing Battle Gods in the army, including thousands of young masters, had all been killed by Jiang Yi! There was no doubt about it: Yi Zu had used his seal stone to record everything that had happened on the battlefield. They saw remnants of the Sword Emanations Race behind, making it clear that these people were killed by the Sword Emanations Race beings.
Why was Jiang Yi so sadistic and crazy?
Even if Ren Tianfan had indeed captured his wives and even if his wives had indeed broken military law, they would not make life difficult for the three ladies once they returned. Why did he have to massacre the entire army? Why did he have to take the lives of those thousands of young masters?
Of course, Heavenly King Long saw no point in pursuing these matters any further. The tragedy had already taken place. Jiang Yi had made an unforgivable mistake. Even if the Demon-Buster Army did not kill him, the thousands of family clans would not let him off. No matter what, Jiang Yi would die for sure.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
Just as Heavenly King Long was deep in thought, seven or eight Teleportation Formation lit up at the same time. Heavenly King Long shook his head and smiled bitterly. The other family clans were already here. Demon-Buster Valley was going to become a marketplace.
True enough—
Several family clan heads from the huge domains had arrived. Heavenly King Long could only lead them into his own council and explain to them everything that had happened honestly. He promised that Heavenly King You and Heavenly King Wu would catch Jiang Yi and bring him back, to offer an explanation to everybody.
Buzz! Buzz!
The Teleportation Formations lit up one by one as more and more people from various family clans arrived. Demon-Buster Valley was becoming very crowded. The visitors were all exceptionally powerful. If Heavenly King Long had not promised time and time again that Heavenly King Wu and Heavenly King You would return with Jiang Yi apprehended, he guessed that they would have caused a scene and personally led their own formidable martial artists to hunt Jiang Yi down.
...
Earth Emanations Domain, in the Thoughtless Sea...
Mo Lingqiu kept flying as fast as he could. In several blinks of an eye, he cut across the Thoughtless Sea. The restrictions around Nameless Island were still lit up; the Earth Emanations Sovereign was still in seclusion. There was no way for him to enter the island.
Swish!
Mo Lingqiu waited for a moment, gritted his teeth, and then released a stream of light, harshly attacking the restrictions around Nameless Island. The light of the restrictions intensified, piercing Mo Lingqiu’s eyes. Just then, an elderly voice sounded. “Lingqiu, what happened?”
Mo Lingqiu quickly bowed and answered, “Sovereign, Jiang Yi is not dead. We have news of him!”
Swish!
A figure shot out of the island. The Earth Emanations Sovereign’s face was a mask of joy. He gazed at Mo Lingqiu, trying to ascertain if the latter was not joking. Then, he happily laughed and said, “Hahaha, I knew it. How can his descendant die so easily? This brat managed to stay inside for twenty days? Hahahaha.”
“Sovereign!”
Mo Lingqiu shook his head with a bitter expression. “Jiang Yi is not dead, but if you don’t go now, Jiang Yi... will die. He has committed a grave mistake and killed many, many people. Heavenly King Wu and Heavenly King Yo are now personally hunting him down.”
“Uh...”
The Earth Emanations Sovereign’s smile faded, and his expression turned somber. He paused for a while and then asked in a heavy tone, “What exactly happened? Tell me in full detail, and don’t miss anything out.”
“I am to blame for this as well!”
Mo Lingqiu began to tell the story, from when the Poison Spirit and the others thought about going to Demon-Buster Valley. He told the sovereign everything, including Di Qianjun’s message. After the Earth Emanations Sovereign heard these things, he began to mumble to himself. A moment later, he shouted, “Go and send a message to the Phantom King. Ask him to rush to the Divine Yang Mystic Realm and join forces with me to save Jiang Yi. Tell him that his grandson is made of great things. If he survives this, he will surpass him and the Green Eagle King to become a Thearch-Ranked martial artist!”
“Thearch-Ranked martial artist? How can that be?”
Mo Lingqiu’s eyes widened. In all of human history, how many Thearch-Ranked martial artists have there been? Five! The Demon-Killing Supreme Thearch died in battle, and so there were only four remaining. Was the Earth Emanations Sovereign saying that Jiang Yi would become a Thearch-Ranked martial artist?
Tsk! Tsk!
The earth emanations sovereign did not pay any attention to Mo Lingqiu. Instead, he charged forward, cutting through space. Then, he disappeared into thin air without any even a spark of light.
