Qi Qingchen and the Little Eagle King’s peculiar actions had stirred the curiosity of many present.

These two were of high status; they would normally not bother with ordinary great family clans’ young masters and young mistresses. Previously, Qi Qingchen’s decision to sit next to Jiang Yi had already made people suspicious. Now, the Little Eagle King had also glared directly at Jiang Yi. It was hard not to attract any attention now.

Furthermore, Jiang Yi was wearing the Silver Demon Mask now. Besides Qi Qingchen, no one else could detect his real strength while no one knew his real ident.i.ty. The Silver Demon Mask also gave Jiang Yi a certain mystical aura and authority. At this moment, Jiang Yi attracted the attention of many as some people exchanged voice transmissions, trying to find out more about him.

As Mo Huaisang and the others had been warned by Mo Lingqiu not to reveal Jiang Yi’s ident.i.ty, many people only managed to gather that Jiang Yi was Di Ling’er’s bodyguard and the Great Minister of Public Works of the Earth Emanations Domain’s Demon-Killing Pavilion; there was nothing else special about him!

After the Little Eagle King left, everyone also started to disperse. Although Mo Huaisang and the others were very curious, they did not feel comfortable to probe further as they all boarded the war chariot and went back to the Wind Flower Castle. After seeing the signboard stating ‘Wind Flower Castle’, Jiang Yi suddenly had a revelation. Could the Snow Moon Castle be nearby?

Jiang Yi hesitated for a moment but did not dare to think too much. There would probably be many visitors to the Snow Moon Castle at this time, right? He had already aroused the attention of so many people. If he went to the Snow Moon Castle now, even if the Little Eagle King did not find fault with him, if his ident.i.ty was revealed somehow; Mo Lingqiu would immediately throw him into his spatial divine item.

“Err…”

After entering the castle, Mo Huaisang suddenly beckoned at Jiang Yi. She also did not know what to call him as she casually said, “Great Minister of Public Works, did the Little Eagle King send you a voice transmission in the end?”

“I don’t think so!”

Jiang Yi answered resolutely. He then asked blankly, “Young Mistress Mo, why do you ask that?”

Mo Huaisang, Jiutian Wen, Xuanyuan Wudi, and the others all looked slightly bewildered. Jiutian Wen thought about it and asked, “Then why did Young Mistress Qingchen sit next to you?”

“How would I know? You should go and ask her!”

Jiang Yi did not have any good feelings towards Jiutian Wen; he also did not want to waste his breath talking to Jiutian Wen. Jiang Yi went straight to his room as Di Ling’er followed swiftly behind, entering Jiang Yi’s room as well.

Jiang Yi saw that Di Ling’er had followed him like a little fox and was looking at him suspiciously. He asked, “Young Mistress Ling’er, why have you followed me into my room?”

Di Ling’er’s eyes blinked as she asked, “Great Minister of Public Works, can you tell me honestly. Do you have an unspeakable relations.h.i.+p with Young Mistress Qingchen?”

“What do you mean by an unspeakable relations.h.i.+p…?”

Jiang Yi frowned as he sighed for a moment. However, as he didn’t want to lie to Di Ling’er, he said, “Young Mistress Ling’er, there are some things that I cannot reveal. However, I do not have anything going on with Young Mistress Qingchen.”

“Oh, oh!”

Di Ling’er could see that Jiang Yi was not lying to her and did not probe further. She thought for a moment and advised him, “Jiang Yi, you shouldn’t have designs for Young Mistress Qingchen. She is a G.o.ddess in the hearts of all the reputable young masters in the entire Earth Domain. If you are interested in her, countless young masters would come and fight you to the death over her…”

“Keke!”

Jiang Yi laughed bitterly. He did not explain too much but nodded and said, “Many thanks for the reminder, Young Mistress Ling’er. I will keep this in mind.”

“En-en!”

Di Ling’er nodded satisfactorily. Following that, she suddenly thought of something else as she said, “Oh, right, Yi Buhui has invited us to go and view the Dragon Spring River sometime later. It is said that the river creates a sound similar to a roaring dragon’s. There seem to be some heaven and earth laws in the Dragon Spring River as well. Do you want to go and take a look?”

“I won’t be joining!”

Jiang Yi said resolutely as he shook his head. “I do not like to take part in these activities. Go ahead and have fun! Enjoy!”

Things had almost gone wrong just now at the banquet; Jiang Yi did not dare to go and join in these activities anymore. He still wanted to go to the Saint Spirit Mountain as well. He didn’t want to be thrown into Mo Lingqiu’s spatial divine item and sent straight back to the Earth Emanations Domain even before the Ten Thousand Domain Tournament began.

Di Ling’er then took her leave.

Jiang Yi activated his room’s restrictions as he started to cultivate. However, he couldn’t seem to quiet down at all. Seeing Yi Buhui and the Little Eagle King made him think of Yi Piaopiao and Jiang Xiaonu. The Saint Spirit Mountain was just five hundred thousand kilometers to the north of here; it was within reach. However, Jiang Yi did not even dare to leave the city. He could not go find Yi Piaopiao, much less rescue her.

“Mother, I am useless!”

Jiang Yi felt more pain as he thought about Yi Piaopiao, and he soon became restless. He had dreamed of meeting Yi Piaopiao so many times at night. He was now so close to the Saint Spirit Mountain, and yet he could only sit here and nurse his grievances.

“I have to think of a way. I have to think of a way to see my mother.”

Jiang Yi’s eyes reddened slightly as he started to pace in his room. After two hours, Jiang Yi realized that he did not have any options at all. Even if he looked for Mo Lingqiu, nothing could be done. When he went to see the Ten Thousand Domain Tournament tomorrow, he would probably not have the chance to see Yi Piaopiao as well.

Yi Piaopiao had created such a huge ruckus back then, completely embarra.s.sing the Phantom Race Clan King. Even if the Earth Emanations Sovereign were to come and plead with the Phantom Race Clan King, the latter would not release Yi Piaopiao; Mo Lingqiu could do no better.

There was no need to even think about Mo Huaisang and the others for help. Although tomorrow was the Ten Thousand Domain Tournament and everyone would probably be heading up the Saint Spirit Mountain, so what?

They were headed to the peak of the Saint Spirit Mountain while Yi Piaopiao was trapped at the bottom of the Saint Spirit Mountain. Jiang Yi couldn’t possibly dig a tunnel downwards all the way to find her, right? Furthermore, the Saint Spirit Mountain was the home of the Phantom Race’s royal family. If it was a place that anyone could easily tunnel through, the Phantom Race would have long perished!

“What should I do? What should I do?”

Jiang Yi was so frustrated he almost wanted to pull all his hair out. He was finally here in the Saint Spirit Domain; he wasn’t here to take in the festivities and watch the duels. If he couldn’t even see Yi Piaopiao, he would have come here for nothing.

“I am staying in the Snow Moon Castle. If you need anything, feel free to come and look for me. I had said that I owe you a favor.” This sentence suddenly floated in Jiang Yi’s mind as his eyes lit up, and he slapped his thigh. He had thought of a fantastic idea: look for Qi Qingchen for help!

Qi Qingchen had reached the King-Ranked Realm. She was also the only daughter of the Wintry Sovereign, the next Wintry Sovereign. Furthermore, didn’t Yi Buhui seem to like her very much? If Qi Qingchen brought Jiang Yi along and said she wanted to see Yi Piaopiao, wouldn’t there be a chance that could actually happen?

A King-Ranked formidable martial artist… that was the same rank as the Phantom Race Clan King. Even if Yi Buhui’s grandfather saw Qi Qingchen, he was going to be respectful to her, right? If Qi Qingchen went to find Yi Buhui, the latter would probably bring Qi Qingchen along to see Yi Piaopiao.

“No wait…”

Jiang Yi thought about this again and realized a problem. Qi Qingchen could say she wanted to pay her respects to Yi Piaopiao as an excuse to see her; if Jiang Yi went along, that would be strange. Who was he? What right did he have to follow alongside Qi Qingchen? That might actually arouse Yi Buhui’s suspicions and if the Little Eagle King got wind of this, he would immediately go looking for Jiang Yi!

Buzz!

The restrictions outside shone as Jiang Yi was startled. He deactivated the restrictions and realized it was Di Ling’er. He walked out and asked, “Young Mistress Ling’er, didn’t you say you were going to see the Dragon Spring River? Why are you still around?”

“I’m not going anymore!”

Di Ling’er walked in, slightly upset as she said, “Yi Buhui went to see Young Mistress Qingchen instead. He asked his younger brother to bring us to see the Dragon Spring River. However, Sister Huaisang felt that it was slightly beneath her to go with Yi Buhui’s brother, and so she declined to go. Great Minister of Public Works, since you are my bodyguard, accompany me outside! It is so boring in here.”

“Bodyguard?”

Jiang Yi’s heart skipped a beat. He had thought of a perfect plan. Wasn’t he Di Ling’er’s bodyguard on the surface? He could use Di Ling’er as an excuse then! He could ask Di Ling’er and Qi Qingchen to find Yi Buhui, to ask him to bring them to see Yi Piaopiao. He could then go along as a bodyguard.

Jiang Yi immediately grew agitated as he said, “You want to go outside? Sure thing! How about we go and visit the Saint Spirit Mountain?”
