“Jiang Yi?”

The Mystic Thearch became alert as his eyes scanned Jiang Yi from head to toe. Finally, his eyes widened in disbelief, turning into two huge circles. He took a closer look at Jiang Yi and said, astonished, “You’re that fella from that Stellarsky Domain? How did you ascend so quickly? How did you train up so quickly? You’re even almost as good as me? Pui!”

The Mystic Thearch was angered and anxious. He spat out a mouthful of blood, and Jiang Yi quickly retrieved recuperation medicine for him. He also sent a burst of heavenly powers into the Mystic Thearch’s body to aid the healing process. Then, he comforted, “Mystic Thearch, don’t ask so many questions. I will explain everything to you once we go back. Come into my spatial divine item and focus on recuperating first. Don’t worry… I will take good care of Guo’er.”

“Jiang… Jiang Yi!”

The Mystic Thearch reached out his bloodied hands and gripped Jiang Yi tightly. Anxiously, he said, “Save my wife. Save my wife.”

“Oh, right!”

Jiang Yi suddenly stood upright and turned to Bai Digu. “Where is his wife? Why aren’t you releasing her as well?”

Bai Digu turned to both of them, but there was clear contempt in his gaze. The Mystic Thearch was an ascendant; as was Jiang Yi. To the races of the Higher Domain, ascendants were lowly people. Even the Demon-Killing Supreme Thearch was the same.

However, when Jiang Yi looked him in the eyes, the contempt was all gone. He quickly turned to the elder seriously and said, “Is there anyone else? Why didn’t you bring them down?”

“Reporting to Young Master!”

The elder walked over and warned him, “Xuan Ye’s wife was arrested in the Ten Thousand Saints Domain. She was seriously injured during a fight with the Ten Thousand Saints Domain’s army soldiers. On the way, she succ.u.mbed to her injuries. The soldiers suspected that her body was poisoned, and they were afraid of getting infected so they burned her corpse.”

“What?”

When the Mystic Thearch heard these words, he spat out a mouthful of blood and pa.s.sed out. Jiang Yi’s heart thudded as he faced Zhu Qiang this time. In a cool voice, he asked, “Zhu Qiang, didn’t you say both of them were arrested in the White River City?”

“I, I…”

Zhu Qiang was scared stiff by Jiang Yi’s ice-cold, beast-like gaze. He trembled uncontrollably. He wanted to explain this, but on seeing Bai Digu’s glare, he dared not say anything. At last, he mumbled, “Actually, I’m not exactly sure about what happened. You will have to conduct a proper investigation.”

Qi Qingchen pondered for a moment and said, “Jiang Yi, my condolences. Since Guo’er’s mother is dead, let’s bring Xuan Ye and Guo’er back for now.”

“Mother is not dead!”

A red light suddenly appeared on the s.p.a.ce between Xuan Guo’er’s eyebrows. Very confidently, she said, “Uncle, they’re lying. Mother is not dead. Mother is of the Undying Race. She cannot be killed. Mother said before that our race must be burned in a terrifying fire for ten days and ten nights in a row before our soul spirits would finally be destroyed. This means we will never die. The Ten Thousand Saints Domain’s lowly flames cannot kill Mother for sure.”

Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+

Bai Digu and the others’ expressions changed. Qi Qingchen’s eyes widened in shock as she mumbled, “Undying Race? The Undying Race still exists?”

Buzz!

Jiang Yi immediately sent the Mystic Thearch into his spatial divine item. Then, the Power of Heaven and Earth in his body surged as he rushed up into the sky. The four dragon patterns on the Fire Dragon Sword floated up, and a red light shot out of the sword, enveloping Bai Digu and the elders around him.

“Stop!”

There were many formidable martial artists in the city plaza. When they saw Jiang Yi take action, many of them immediately charged towards him. Some of them even began dealing their attacks, wanting to knock Jiang Yi down.

“Hmph!”

Qi Qingchen’s ring lit up, sucking Xuan Guo’er in. Her own aura surged. The King-Ranked martial artist’s terrifying aura enveloped the entire place, causing everyone to slow down in their movements and attacks.

Buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz!

At the same time, Jiang Yi’s Wintry Pearl kept flas.h.i.+ng, summoning Sword Emanations Race beings one by one. In just a few seconds, at least a thousand Sword Emanations Race beings stood alongside him. He shot out baneful aura from his Fire Dragon Sword, causing it to envelop Bai Digu and the two elders beside him. The three of their eyes turned red immediately, and they found themselves unable to move. Jiang Yi easily pointed his sword at them and charged forward, wanting to strike Bai Digu’s head with it.

“Jiang Yi, don’t kill them yet! Taking Bai Digu will suffice.”

Qi Qingchen shouted, causing Jiang Yi’s Fire Dragon Sword to divert just before it struck Bai Digu’s head. The sword struck his left shoulder harshly. Supreme-grade battle armor appeared around Bai Digu’s body, protecting him from that blow.

Crack!

The Power of Heaven and Earth in Jiang Yi’s body surged, making him a hundred times stronger. His power increased a hundred times, too. How powerful was that blow? Half the bones in Bai Digu’s shoulder shattered to pieces. Even the stone step below his feet cracked. Bai Digu was being hammered into the ground; half of his body was already in the soil.

“Pfff!”

Bai Digu’s eyes cleared up as he spat out a mouthful of blood and shouted curses at Jiang Yi. Jiang Yi kicked his head and stomped it into the ground. He pointed his Fire Dragon Sword at Bai Digu’s chest as Sword Emanations Race beings kept appearing around him. There were already more than ten thousand of them, and they were forming layers of walls around Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi said nothing. He looked past the Sword Emanations Race beings and looked right into the eyes of the Bai Clan’s elders. More and more Sword Emanations Race beings were gathering around him; the Bai Clan’s disciples had no choice but to keep retreating, but they surrounded Jiang Yi and Qi Qingchen.

The situation had already turned ugly!

Qi Qingchen saw no point in talking anymore. Jiang Yi waited for a few seconds. Since no one from the Bai Clan spoke up, the corner of his lips twisted upwards in a mirthless smile. His Fire Dragon Sword stabbed right into Bai Digu’s belly as the sound of a pig being slaughtered echoed throughout the surroundings. Bai Digu roared in anger, “Jiang Yi, you dared to cripple my divine core? I want to kill you, kill you…”

Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+

Countless formidable martial artists’ expressions changed at once. All of their killing intents surged, and the crowd broke into a flurry of discussion. However, once Jiang Yi spoke in a cold, hard tone; the entire place became quiet. Coolly, Jiang Yi said, “Don’t even talk to me about your dantian. I almost killed your clan’s Bai Ditian not long ago. I personally slaughtered You Tianni and killed Heavenly King You.

“I even dared to kill thousands of young masters back in the Purgatory Mystic Realm and destroy tens of thousands of formidable martial artists in the Divine Yang Mystic Realm. Of course, I would dare to destroy your White River City today. Just one sentence: are you going to let her go or not? If not, don’t blame me for being heartless.”

Ss, ss…

All around, people sucked in gasps of cool air. In fact, the situation deteriorated to this stage in White River City because many people of the city did not know what exactly had happened. They had only heard rumors before, but now, Jiang Yi was personally telling them what happened. Obviously, this shocked everyone.

After the White River King left the Lava Wasteland, he did not return. Instead, he remained at the Heaven Desert Domain. Bai Ditian did not return either. Everyone thought that he was at the Heaven Desert Domain as well.

When they heard that the rumors spreading around White River City were from the outer domains, they did not care too much to verify the information. Everyone thought that the White River King and Bai Ditian would return soon. All of them did not bother asking more about the matter.

They half doubted what they heard as well. Jiang Yi had blown this matter up, but to say that a lowly ascendant who arrived at the Higher Domain less than half a year ago could kill a King-Ranked martial artist… they would not have believed it even if people threatened to beat them to death over it.

Of course…

Bai Digu was the main culprit for allowing these things to happen today. More accurately, he was doing this because of the Mystic Thearch’s wife. She was a rare member of the Undying Race.

Bai Digu was a great young master. His mother also belonged to the greatest clan of the White River Domain. He was meant to be the successor of the Bai Clan. However, he did not have much talent. Instead, the b.a.s.t.a.r.d child Bai Ditian outshone him, preventing him from becoming the most powerful young master in the Bai Clan.

The people whom Bai Digu was close to, of course, became anxious. They tried all sorts of means to improve his skills. The Undying Race was something like a mysterious crucible or furnace; its members could help others cultivate strong Astral Bodies.

Thus, when Zhu Qiang sent that message, Bai Digu immediately gathered a group of elders to discuss the situation. They were prepared to hand the Mystic Thearch over, but they wanted his wife to remain. Unexpectedly, however, Jiang Yi remained extremely st.u.r.dy. He warned that he would attack them, and he really did. In a single move, he crippled Bai Digu’s divine core.

“What should we do?”

Many elders and the two other young masters of the Bai Clan no longer dared to make any decisions. Now that Bai Digu’s divine core was crippled, he was as good as a vegetable for the rest of his life. If they gave the Mystic Thearch’s wife up, the Bai Clan would lose its reputation forever.

“Young Master Bai Dicheng, break your body-protecting jade talisman. The Sovereign will come back at once. We have to delay Jiang Yi!”

At last, a well-respected elder of the Bai Clan sent a voice transmission to one of the young masters in the Bai Clan. He could not let this matter rest for sure. The Bai Clan was not to be bullied by just anyone.
