My Fury Will Burn The Heavens Chapter 478 - Fishing In Troubled Water

"I have been fooled? The Demon Empress?"

Ling Clan Patriarch was furious upon hearing the front half of the sentence… but s.h.i.+vered after hearing the name of the Demon Empress. Although he was suspicious that Jiang Yi was tricking him, he still had to inspect the surroundings with his divine senses.

"Little b.a.s.t.a.r.d! I'm going to rip you apart! Huh… something is wrong? The flame!"

The Patriarch scanned everywhere with his divine senses at a horrifying speed. He was enraged after making sure that no one was here. However, when he was about to launch an advanced attack, he suddenly realized that the flames coming to him this time were different. The temperature was much higher; there were even signs of him being burnt.

"Run—!"

With his body releasing powerful aura, a ring on his hand lit up. A small s.h.i.+ed appeared, and he tossed the s.h.i.+eld up while his body shot down as fast as possible.

Buzz!

The round s.h.i.+eld was glistening with golden light and quickly grew larger. Within a short time, it blocked half of the sky and completely fended off the sea of flames.

The Defense Sacred Artifact. Such a pity…

Jiang Yi sighed privately. There were very few saint artifacts on the continent. Even fewer were defense saint artifacts. The Azure Dragon Empire used to rule this continent for nearly tens of thousands of years. It was unsurprising that the Ling Clan Patriarch had the Defense Sacred Artifact.

It was such a good opportunity!

If Ling Clan Patriarch didn't have the Defense Sacred Artifact, he would at least be hurt—if not killed just now. Once his strength was greatly compromised, Jiang Yi would have a chance to kill him.

Go…

The Netherworld Ghost Flames were burning that Defense Sacred Artifact. It appeared that it could break this Defense Sacred Artifact, but Jiang Yi no longer cared. He had missed his best shot; if he didn't run now, he might never have another chance again.

He was relieved that Jiang Xiaonu was not caught by Ling Clan Patriarch. If he ran away, sure enough—Ling Clan Patriarch would chase after him. Jiang Xiaonu and the group would be safer.

Tsk! Tsk!

The Netherworld Ghost Flames were indeed powerful. That Defense Sacred Artifact was burned down, and its golden light dimmed quickly. It became smaller and smaller and finally turned into a small s.h.i.+eld, falling onto the ground. It was completely destroyed, leaving the ghost flames and Nine Heavens' Dragon Flames to continue whizzing by.

With the momentary protection from the s.h.i.+eld, Ling Clan Patriarch escaped easily. Then again, the terrifyingly high temperature set his robe, hair, and beard on fire. Outraged, he directly shattered his robe with essence force and quickly put out the fire on his hair and beard. Though he was not hurt, he looked quite awkward and untidy.

"Jiang Yi. If I don't kill you for this, then I don't deserve to be a man!"

He touched his still-smoking head, disappeared beard and eyebrows, and blackened face and body—before bursting into yelling. He took out a yellow dragon robe from the Ancient Divine Essence Ring and put it on, without was.h.i.+ng his body. Two legs were pressed on the ground, causing the ground to subside. He shot towards the direction where Jiang Yi was fleeing.

Jiang Yi was flying to the east south side and was going to plunge into the sea. He had a yearning right now. Even if he had to die… he wanted to drag Ling Clan Patriarch down to the h.e.l.l with him.

There were horrible sea demons in the sea. Even the Witch G.o.d dared not to wander around back then. Jiang Yi was not as fast as Ling Clan Patriarch—so sooner or later, he would be caught. There was no way to escape. Since he had missed his best chance and couldn't kill Ling Clan Patriarch, he could only lure Ling Clan Patriarch to the deep sea and draw powerful demon kings over. He wanted to pull Ling Clan Patriarch down into his grave!

Fis.h.i.+ng in the troubled water!

He was well aware that he never had a shot to kill the Patriarch without any external help. There was still a trace of hope in the deep sea.

He left one step before Ling Clan Patriarch. In addition to the time that Ling Clan Patriarch used to put out the fire and change his cloth, he was ahead of Ling Clan Patriarch by less than two minutes. However, both were moving at a high speed, and so it wasn't possible for Ling Clan Patriarch to catch up with him in a short time.

They were already in the south of the Summer Rain City and were very close to the sea. Jiang Yi saw the faraway sea after only a dozen instant s.h.i.+fts.

The sky was blue, and so was the sky. It stretched as far as the eye could see. Jiang Yi's spirit was rejuvenated by the gentle sea breeze.

This was his third time going to the sea. The first time was when he searched for information about his mother on Starfall Island. On the second time, he went to the west sea to look for the Black Wasps. He ended up being set up and was almost killed by the Devil Star Vines. His heart still palpitated when thinking back to that horrible underground world.

The underground world? The Devil Star Vines?

Thinking of these, an idea suddenly struck him. The Devil Star Vines were so powerful that even the Demon Empress couldn't beat it. What if… he lured Ling Clan Patriarch to the west sea? After that, he might borrow the help of the Devil Star Vines and kill Ling Clan Patriarch easily.

No! Wait! Hang on…

Jiang Yi swiftly shaking his head and dropped this thought. Right now, he was in the south of the Great Xia Kingdom, which was the southeast part of the continent. To get to the west sea, he had to go around the Heaven Mystics Kingdom's sea region. Even if he could instantly-s.h.i.+ft non-stop, it would at least take a month.

In addition, he was chased by Ling Clan Patriarch. Even if Ling Clan Patriarch was not behind him, he would definitely pa.s.s out half-way and eaten by sea demons.

"If the west sea is not an option, I'll go to the east sea then!"

Jiang Yi suddenly had a flash of wit. He looked determined. As he couldn't go to the west sea, he would change to the east sea instead. He would go to the… Sea of Death!

There were also black rattans in the Sea of Death, which were similar to the Devil Star Vines. In the Sea of Death, there was a mysterious s.h.i.+eld. Additionally, a naked girl lied in a coffin inside the s.h.i.+eld!

Shui Youlan once went near the Sea of Death, but even she didn't dare to go in. After she returned, she warned the members of the Water Moon Observatory to never go near the Sea of Death. Shui Youlan's strength was the same level as Ling Clan Patriarch's. Thus, if the Patriarch went to the Sea of Death, he might not be able to get out alive.

Most importantly…

The Sea of Death was only discovered one or two years ago. Other than the important clans at the Starfall Island, the Northern Liang Kingdom, and the Divine Martial Kingdom, n.o.body knew about it. Ling Clan Patriarch had been in his seclusion. After he was severely hit by the Demon Empress, he had been healing. It was highly possible that he just came out recently and didn't know about the Sea of Death.

Furthermore, since Jiang Yi could fend off the Devil Star Vines with his Nine Heavens' Dragon Flames, it was very likely that he could destroy the black rattans in the Sea of Death with the Netherworld Ghost Flames. His chance of surviving from the Sea of Death was promising.

All of these deserved Jiang Yi to try out his luck!

Of course, he had to stay alive and lead Ling Clan Patriarch to the Sea of Death. After all, it was still quite some distance away from the Sea of Death. It would take about ten days even if he instant-s.h.i.+fted.

I have to do it! Let's go!

Jiang Yi tried his best to pull himself together and s.h.i.+fted to the northeast direction. Flas.h.i.+ng, he soon disappeared in the boundless sea.

"Hmph!"

In a short time, a yellow shadow flew by. Ling Clan Patriarch had the hair all over his body burned. His face was darkened with fire, which made him look strange and funny. Though he lost sight of Jiang Yi, he could still feel Jiang Yi's aura in the air and determine his direction.

Turning his eyes, he swiftly rushed to the northeast direction. Now, he half-believed the words of Jiang Yi. However, even if Jiang Yi was telling the truth, he was not going to return to Stellarsky City.

If the Demon Empress indeed went to Stellarsky City, he wouldn't render any help besides rus.h.i.+ng into his death if he also returned to Stellarsky City. He might as well capture Jiang Yi alive or directly kill him.

Looking at the vast sea, Ling Clan Patriarch had no fear. He sneered and shouted quietly instead, "Want to hide in the deep sea and fish in the troubled water? Kid, if I let you escape this time, I will have been living in vain for the past hundreds of year."
