1095 Young Lady Assassin

Yi Chan and Yin Ruobing both tried but realized that they too couldn't retrieve any of their items and gave up. However, the two still didn't dare to look at Jiang Yi. They were both prestigious young ladies. Normally even when young masters were before them, they would make sure that their clothing was prim and proper. They were not like this rascal Jiang Yi, who had directly exposed his chest and nipples, making the two ladies so shy that they wished they could hide in the Road of Azure Clouds.

"Alright, you two can stop acting so shy and awkward. It is not as if I do not have my pants on. I am now being taken advantage of, but you don't see me complaining; why are the two of you still like this? Sooner or later, you would have to look at a man's body…"

Jiang Yi saw that the two ladies still refused to walk and murmured to himself. However, he saw Yi Chan's murderous look and hurriedly stopped talking. Instead, he scratched his nose, embarrassed, and walked forward. As he walked, he mumbled, "Alright, follow behind me. Let's get past the Trials of Wind and Fire as fast as we can. If you two do not move, Zhan Tianlei and She Fei will be catching up with us fast."

Hearing the last sentence, both ladies' faces changed. They hurriedly followed Jiang Yi. Yin Ruobing walked in front of Yi Chan and saw Jiang Yi's exposed back. Seeing how many lines there were on his back from knives and swords scars, her face reddened again. She kept her eyes fixated on her feet but—at times—couldn't resist and stole another glance at his back. That young lady-like charming self could move many men.

Yi Chan had it slightly better, being behind Yin Ruobing. However, her eyes too occasionally swept towards Jiang Yi's back. Her eyes carried a tinge of shyness. It was undeniable that Jiang Yi had a good body. His shoulders were broad, and his waist narrow; his figure was perfect. His skin was white and had not lost its healthy glow while masculine energy emitted from his body. If he entered any emperor's inner palace, he would definitely be forcibly bedded by a group of concubines. A body modified from the effects of Destitute Dragon Grass was the most perfect; it was hard to not attract people.

Jiang Yi noticed that the two ladies were acting slightly strangely, helplessly stopped, and turned to look at the two of them. He said, "My two dear ladies. Can you two stop being absent-minded? This place is very dangerous. If you two want to see—when we are out, I can take off everything for the two of you!"

"Bah!"

Tsk! Tsk!

Not a hundred feet later, a light, air piercing sound could be heard from the front. Its sound was extremely soft and had been masked by the sound of the trio's footsteps. However, the sound could not escape Jiang Yi's attention. He had clearly detected that on the left in front of him, there were two waves of astral winds blowing their way here. The astral winds were very thick; at least as thick as the level of a hundred feet up in the high skies at night.

"Ha!"

Jiang Yi used his Nameless Divine Art, and both his hands started to dance. The astral winds pro-actively headed towards his two hands and were easily absorbed by him, without any being left out. Yin Ruobing and Yi Chan both watched with eyes bright and glimmering. The two sighed with emotion. Jiang Yi could even absorb astral winds; it seemed as if the Mystic Thearch Palace was going to be his. After all, in the past seven hundred thousand years—besides the Mystic Thearch, Jiang Yi was the second person who could absorb astral winds.

Pressing forward for merely another thirty feet—in the sky in front of them, intense space fluctuations appeared. A fire dragon came whooshing by. The fire dragon was formed by countless black burning flames, and its appearance immediately raised the surrounding temperatures sky-high. Yin Ruobing and Yi Chan's dresses appeared as if they were going to be immolated. The black burning flames had appeared too suddenly and too quickly.

"Be careful!"

Jiang Yi yelled, and his body swiftly retreated and hurriedly hugged Yin Ruobing and then charged towards Yi Chan. However, Yi Chan's body seemed to be shining like a lightning bolt. The bolts quickly dissipated away from her body, forming a shield made of lightning bolts. She shouted, "Do not worry about me—go!"

"Alright!"

Jiang Yi did not try to argue with her. He carried Yin Ruobing and started running frantically forward. The Fire Spirit Pearl at his waist had already started to light up; a completely transparent shield appeared, enveloping his entire body. As Yin Ruobing was being carried by Jiang Yi, she naturally was also within the shield and did not feel any high temperature at all.

"Ay…!"

Yin Ruobing shouted out in shock. Her face grew so red that it could boil. However, not only did she not resist, but she held on to Jiang Yi's neck with both her hands. Her hand was also buried in his chest. Smelling the masculine yang aura emanating from Jiang Yi's body, her whole body became soft. She was so shy she didn't think she could see anyone at that moment.

"Break!"

From behind them, they could hear Yi Chan's voice. A few lightning bolts surrounding her body flew out and became hundreds of lightning dragons that soared up into the sky and attacked the fire-black dragon. The black dragon quickly exploded into shreds, falling down into the black fog that covered both sides of the stone bridge, into the bottomless pit.

"Alright, it's safe!"

Jiang Yi waited for a while and placed Yin Ruobing down. However, as Yin Ruobing's legs were wobbly, she evidently could not walk. It took a long time before she recovered. She also did not say anything, but she nodded her head in acknowledgment.

"Sister Ruobing, let's go!"

Yi Chan saw that Yin Ruobing was not moving and urged her forward. She sent a mocking voice transmission to Ruobing, saying: "You little girl, it is not as if you hadn't seen a man before. Why are you so reserved? You should be more generous. Do not lose the name of the first young lady of the Yin Clan."

"Big Sister Chan, I do not want to move anymore if, even you keep are making fun of me…"

Yin Ruobing stomped her foot and replied shyly through a voice transmission. That small lady-like expression did not look like the first young lady of the Yin Clan at all. However, Yi Chan's words had settled Yin Ruobing quite a bit. Yin Ruobing fastened her pace and followed behind Jiang Yi.

"Sigh!"

Yi Chan sighed slightly, shook her head, and laughed lightly. She used a voice only she could hear and murmured, "Jiang Yi, Exactly what is good about you? That the first lady of the Yin Clan would be willing to give up her status, her clan, everything. Has she… fallen for you?

"Could it be the Devil's Smile? That might be right. Grandfather's Devil's Smile back in the days had mesmerized all the ladies in the world!" Yi Chan thought back to that time in the Painting Cliffs where Jiang Yi had smiled charmingly and hinted that her grandfather's mystical ability was essentially a lady assassin. Could it be that it was because too many girls liked her grandfather, that he was afraid of leaving too many love debts and hence decided to become a monk?

Tsk! Tsk!

From the front rang out yet another gust of astral winds. Yi Chan hurriedly gathered her scattered thoughts and follow behind the rest. With Jiang Yi handling the front, the walking had indeed proceeded at a fast pace. Although the astral winds this time were slightly thicker, they were easily absorbed by Jiang Yi; the two ladies did not need to lift a finger.

After the astral winds came the sky flames. This time, the sky flames were more murderous and deadly. Jiang Yi carried Yin Ruobing once again while Yi Chan continued to use her lightning bolts to shield her body, and thus, there was nothing to worry about. The lightning bolts were a thunder dao pattern that she had understood from a powerful Yi Clan mystical ability; it was a six-star dao pattern that could be used both to defend and attack and was exceptionally deadly.

"This lady obviously has the ability to guard against fire, and yet she is acting like a helpless young lady. A woman in love really makes her turn into an idiot. She doesn't even know how to be a little more reserved…"

Seeing Yin Ruobing curled up like a small cat in Jiang Yi's embrace, Yi Chan felt very conflicted. She also felt a certain sour taste. She gently sighed and realized that she had become a light bulb; it was quite awkward.

Jiang Yi waited until after the fire dragon had been extinguished before putting Yin Ruobing down. He then thought about it and said, "Forget it. Ruobing, I'd better carry you and walk. This is too slow."

Yin Ruobing gently angled her head and used her peripheral vision to look at Yi Chan. She bit her lip and said, "This… is not appropriate, right? I can walk on my own."

"Pfff…"

Yi Chan sniggered and smiled, shaking her head and smiling bitterly. She said, "Little Sister Ruobing, you can pretend that I am not around. I'll act as if I cannot see anything."
