Chapter 1470 - Something Big has Happened!

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Actually, Jiang Yi had not made up his mind about this matter yet!

Jiang Xiaonu was like Jiang Yi’s left and right hands: when she was around, he would feel very comfortable and at ease; when she was not around, he would miss her and feel very miserable.

The problem was that, since young, Jiang Yi had been used to treating Jiang Xiaonu like his little sister; a sister that was even closer than a biological sister. To suddenly change from sister to lover was… something hard for Jiang Yi to accept.

He scratched his nose as he said, “Xiaonu, can we not talk about this now? I…”

Jiang Xiaonu’s face darkened slightly as she quickly forced a sliver of a smile. She lifted her head and said, “Then let’s go, young master! We will go and buy clothes. I want to buy many beautiful dresses!”

“Alright!”

Jiang Yi smiled as he touched Jiang Xiaonu’s head dotingly and brought her outside. He called Di Ling’er along as well. The men from the Ink Feather Race automatically appeared while Mo Shangxing also followed along. Xiao Hong naturally tagged along as well.

Xiao Hong had gotten some news regarding what had happened in the Saint Spirit Domain. The news that Jiang Yi had won the first place in the Wen Fight and all the trouble he had caused there had spread like wildfire. Xiao Hong now was even more respectful to Jiang Yi. This person was becoming more and more powerful. The Earth Emanations Sovereign actually was willing to withstand three attacks on his behalf? Xiao Hong had been frightened by this news. Probably even if it was Mo Huaisang who did something wrong, the Earth Emanations Sovereign wouldn’t shield her like that, right?

“Let’s go to the Crazed God Castle to buy some things! I also want to buy Young Mistress Ling’er a zither as well!”

Jiang Yi beckoned and smiled at Di Ling’er, who didn’t reject this offer at all. In fact, she was happy to accept a gift from Jiang Yi. She had received a voice transmission from Di Ming, asking her to accompany Jiang Yi and Jiang Xiaonu as much as she could. Di Ming had also given her a new designation: the Blue Eagle Prefecture Demon-Killing Pavilion Branch Lord.

Di Ming’s designation had been void of logic. Although Di Ling’er’s current strength was sufficient to hold this position, she had never once held any posts in the Demon-Killing Pavilion. To suddenly make her the new Blue Eagle Prefecture Demon-Killing Pavilion Branch Lord was going to displease many people in the Demon-Killing Pavilion.

Despite the displeasure from his subordinates, Di Ming forcing this order through was something that Di Ling’er actually understood why. Di Ming wanted to establish a certain relationship with Jiang Yi through her. Perhaps… he wanted her to be married to Jiang Yi, that the Di Clan and Jiang Yi could form a marriage alliance. From then on, he could then cozy up to Jiang Yi.

Thinking of this, Di Ling’er blushed slightly. She did not say anything as she followed Jiang Yi and company on the Divine Boat as it sped through the sky to the Crazed God Castle.

As the group reached the Crazed God Castle, Jiutian Ze and Young Mistress He were already waiting there for them. Jiang Yi did not waste his breath and did not even go drink some tea with the duo. He directly went into the Crazed God Castle to choose all sorts of items to purchase.

He had fifty million divine roots on him and felt confident that he could now afford many things. As long as it was something that Jiang Xiaonu’s gaze lingered on, he would immediately have it wrapped without asking the price. He also helped Di Ling’er to purchase a zither. Di Ling’er tested it and was very pleased to find that it was more or less similar to her original one.

It was a pity that the best zithers here were of that quality; there were no treasure zithers that Jiang Yi wanted. He chose one casually and asked Di Ling’er and Jiang Xiaonu if they needed to buy anything else. When they shook their heads, Jiang Yi turned and spoke to Young Mistress He, asking, “Please count and tell me how much divine roots all these would cost?”

“Keke!”

Young Mistress He and Jiutian Ze had accompanied them the entire way and had not spoken much. At this moment, Young Mistress He smiled slightly and said, “Lord Jiang wishes to buy some things for the two young mistresses; why would that require divine roots? You are looking down on us!”

“Tabulate and let me know!”

Jiang Yi repeated his request again. Now that he had divine roots, he also did not want to be in anyone’s debt. Young Mistress He saw that Jiang Yi was persistent as she glanced at a housekeeper near her. The latter counted and said, “Lord Jiang, it is a hundred thousand divine roots in total!”

“A hundred thousand?”

Jiang Yi and Di Ling’er exchanged a glance as they were both a little speechless. The two zithers alone would probably be worth two hundred thousand divine roots, right? The clothes that Jiang Yi had bought for Jiang Xiaonu were not cheap either. Jiang Yi could only smile bitterly as he took out a hundred thousand divine roots and said to Young Mistress He, “Young Mistress He, many thanks for your hospitality. We will take our leave now.”

“My lord, if you are free, feel free to come anytime!” Young Mistress He knew that Jiang Yi understood her intentions as she smiled slightly, her eyes filled with passion.

Jiang Yi brought the group and left. This time, they did not stop at the Blue Eagle City but headed straight back to the Divine Eagle City. Xiao Hong did not follow along this time. He knew that Jiang Yi did not like people currying favor with him; with Xiao Leng there, that was enough.

Jiang Yi asked Gu Mu to arrange accommodations for Di Ling’er and the Ink Feather Race formidable martial artists while Jiang Xiaonu would stay together with him. He also found out that the Black Deity had unexpectedly come out of seclusion and had broken through to the Demon God Realm. The Black Deity was very surprised to see Jiang Xiaonu back and was very happy for Jiang Yi as well.

Jiang Yi let the Black Deity arrange for Jiang Xiaonu’s lodging as he sat inside the main hall. This time, things had indeed gotten a little out of hand. Jiang Yi was still a little dazed and needed a little peace and quiet to sort out his path from here on.

First!

The most important thing was to try and realize quintessence. This heavenly spring rhythmic movement had been etched inside his soul spirit; it wasn’t something that he had realized. The only reason why he could use it now was merely that he had sensed something from Di Ling’er’s playing and then managed to merge it with his Divine Sound Heaven Skill.

Second, he had to find a way to increase his strength. What if even after he realized the quintessence, the Phantom King still did not release his mother? He would have to forcibly take her away then.

In order to rescue someone under the watchful gaze of the number-two in the Earth Domain—not to mention that the Saint Spirit Mountain was also the Phantom King’s home base—with formidable martial artists everywhere, how strong did he have to be? If it was the Green Eagle King, could he single-handedly rescue Yi Piaopiao?

Jiang Yi had no idea!

He could only desperately try to increase his firepower. He had gained much confidence from merging the heavenly spring rhythmic movement in his playing. Since he could elevate his battle strength to such a stage in such a short time, he could then continue to grow stronger, to become a Demon-Killing Battle God, a Titled Battle God, and finally… King-Ranked!

Nameless Divine Art, missing pieces to the Fire Dragon Sword! 

Jiang Yi thought of the mysterious elder’s words. As long as he could realize the Nameless Divine Art to the ninth stage and then find all remaining parts of the Fire Dragon Sword, he could then have the power to fight against the Netherworld Realm!

Jiang Yi still did not understand what this statement meant. What level did he have to reach before he could go against the Netherworld Realm? However… if he could reach that stage, then it should be easy to cleanse the Saint Spirit Mountain with blood, right?

“I’ll accompany Xiaonu for a few days and then go into seclusion. I will first try and realize quintessence!”

Jiang Yi decided on his course of action as he rose and walked into the backyard, wanting to see whether the Black Deity had helped Jiang Xiaonu settle in or not. He had walked a few steps when a figure shot into the hall speedily. Commander Liu’s face was extremely serious as he said, “Great Minister of Public Works, something big has happened!”

“Something big?”

Jiang Yi was slightly taken aback. What kind of big things could happen in the Earth Emanations Domain?”

Commander Liu hurriedly said, “We just received reports that a Netherworld Divine Formation had actually been built in the depths of the Black Snow Sea. A while ago, a million-strong army had been teleported over from the Netherworld Realm. Dragon Flame City, North River City, and three cities in the Black Snow Prefecture have all fallen. Ninety million people have been assaulted by the Netherworld Aura and have turned into monsters.

“The Netherworld Realm army is now speedily attacking dozen-odd cities in the Blue Eagle Prefecture and the Black Snow Prefecture! The Sovereign himself has gone to destroy the Netherworld Divine Formation while the Pavilion Lord has disseminated a Demon-Killing Order. All formidable martial artists of Demon-Killing Battle King-rank and above are to teleport immediately to the battlefields to kill the Netherworld Realm army. If we are late, all the nearby cities would fall…”

“What are we waiting for?”

Jiang Yi’s face grew stern immediately as he turned and ran outside. At the same time, he injected heavenly powers into his voice as he roared, “All Demon-Killing Battle Kings, God Kings, Earth Emanations in the city are to assemble at the city plaza! Now!”
