Chapter 1548 - We do not Want the Jiang Yi Prefecture!

“Young Master is dead?”

When Yi Chan had grown mad just now, the Black Deity had not dared to ask more. After the four had left, he then murmured to himself, utterly confused. Unfortunately, Jiang Yi had long disabled the mental connection between them two; Black Deity was also no longer Jiang Yi’s Spirit Beast. If not, he could easily determine if Jiang Yi was dead or alive. If he was still Jiang Yi’s Spirit Beast—if Jiang Yi had really died, Black Deity would not be able to live either.

“Young Master, you must continue to live; Princess Qianqian is about to ascend, right?” Black Deity murmured to himself as he looked into the skies, his eyes full of worry.

Earth Emanations City!

Poison Spirit and the three madams teleporting over immediately attracted the attention of many. Although Yi Chan and the other two ladies were still very weak, their beauty and airs were top-notch. Yi Chan’s airs, in particular, were very out of place with her current strength.

“My three madams, this way, please!”

Poison Spirit respectfully led the way. Many Earth Emanations Army guards around the Teleportation Formation all recognized Poison Spirit; he was Jiang Yi’s subordinate after all. Some Earth Emanations Army grew confused; madams? Could these be Jiang Yi’s wives? However, based on what they knew, Jiang Yi did not marry anyone here, right?

“Gentlemen, please inform the Assistant Pavilion Lord that Poison Spirit requests a meeting.” After entering the Earth Emanations Castle, Poison Spirit brought the three madams to the second floor as they waited outside a central hall to see Mo Lingqiu.

Shh-shh-shh!

Before long, Mo Lingqiu personally came out. He regarded Poison Spirit highly; Poison Spirit had realized the Divine Spirit Thrust, and his potential was unlimited. Mo Lingqiu swept a look at Yi Chan and company. He was first startled but swiftly connected the dots and said, “Poison Spirit, these are Jiang Yi’s wives, right?”

“Yes!”

Poison Spirit nodded and said. He looked at Yi Chan and company as he introduced, “My three madams, this is Assistant Pavilion Lord Mo; he had taken good care of the Prefecture Lord.”

“Greetings to Lord Mo!” Yi Chan and the other two hurriedly bowed in greeting.

“Sigh, come in and sit.”

Mo Lingqiu sighed slightly as he turned and entered the hall. He brought everyone into another side hall. After everyone had been seated and tea had been served, Mo Lingqiu smiled slightly as he said, “I had long received word that you three had ascended; unfortunately—as I have been very busy, I hadn’t had the chance to pay you three a visit. Are you all comfortable living in Blue Eagle Mountain? Do not stand on formality; Jiang Yi had saved my life once. We are considered family!”

Su Ruoxue and Yin Ruobing normally did not say anything on such occasions; they left everything to Yi Chan. Yi Chan led the two as they bowed once again and said, “Many thanks, Lord Mo, for your concern. We are settling in very well; we just miss our husband.”

“Uh—”

Mo Lingqiu’s eyes dimmed. He paused and asked, ‘What can I do for you guys this time? You can speak your mind. As long as I can help, I will definitely do so.”

Yi Chan did not say anything as she looked towards Poison Spirit. Poison Spirit rose and said, “It is like this, Assistant Pavilion Lord. We would like to make a trip to the Purgatory Mystic Realm; we would like to request for some formidable martial artists to escort us.”

“The Purgatory Mystic Realm?”

Mo Lingqiu was stunned for a second as his face darkened. He then rebuked Poison Spirit, “What is this nonsense? I had personally brought men to investigate; not even Jiang Yi’s corpse remained. What is the point of you guys heading to the Purgatory Mystic Realm? That place is so dangerous; we lost a few formidable martial artists the last time we went. I will never agree to this.”

Poison Spirit was slightly hesitant now. Yi Chan then rose and said, “My Lord, my husband is not dead; I am certain of this. We would like my Lord to help us with this matter; we will be eternally grateful.”

“Not dead?”

Mo Lingqiu smiled coldly as he said, “It has already been twenty days. Putting Jiang Yi aside, even ordinary King-Ranked formidable martial artists would have died by now. Heavenly King You himself would also not be able to survive in there after such a long time. Poison Spirit, do you believe that Jiang Yi could actually still be alive?”

“This…”

Poison Spirit grew even more hesitant. Mo Lingqiu’s words were true. Poison Spirit himself had entered the Purgatory Mystic Realm and knew how dangerous the place was. He looked at Yi Chan doubtfully, wondering if she was lying to him with the aim of trying to find Jiang Yi’s corpse there; or perhaps, she wanted to die there and be buried with him?

Poison Spirit thought for a moment as he said in a low voice, “Madam, what Lord Mo said is true. Young Lord had entered a very dangerous place. If I entered alone, I wouldn’t be able to last even half a day; Young Lord had entered that place twenty days ago…”

“No!”

Yi Chan said very firmly, “My husband is not dead! I am willing to stake my life on this; if I am lying, I will die a horrible death.”

Even though Yi Chan swore such a horrible oath, Mo Lingqiu and Poison Spirit were still a little doubtful; they were guessing if the trio actually wanted to go there to be buried with Jiang Yi? Mo Lingqiu thought about it and said, “It’s not that I don’t wish to help; in order to deploy so many formidable martial artists, I need the Sovereign’s approval. The Sovereign is now in seclusion; even I couldn’t enter the Nameless Island the last time I wanted to see him. Hence… I am powerless to help.”

Yi Chan’s expression became icy-cold while Su Ruoxue and Yin Ruobing’s eyes revealed a sliver of helplessness. Having been here for two years, they understood a little about the Earth Domain. They were very clear that based on their strength, they couldn’t go anywhere or do anything on their own.

Yi Chan’s eyes shone as she quickly had an idea. She asked, “Since Lord Mo cannot deploy men to protect us, could you teleport us to the Demon-Buster Valley? We will go and look for our husband ourselves.”

“No way!”

Mo Lingqiu stood up immediately as he reproached, “Are you three mad? Even if you three want to die in the Purgatory Mystic Realm, the people in the Demon-Buster Valley would definitely not allow you three to head to the Purgatory Mystic Realm. You all had better stay in the Blue Eagle Mountain obediently and not go anywhere. I had wanted to take back Jiang Yi Prefecture initially; now that you three have come, I will give Jiang Yi Prefecture to you three, so that your descendants can inherit it. I will guarantee that your descendants will be prosperous for eternity; at least then I will be accountable to Jiang Yi.”

“We do not want Jiang Yi Prefecture!”

Yi Chan’s temper was similar to Jiang Yi’s. She said coldly, “My Lord, you can take back Jiang Yi Prefecture. I just ask that you teleport us to the Demon-Buster Valley; we will not require your assistance with anything else. If you cannot even help us with this, we will have no choice but to commit suicide.”

“You can’t, madam!”

Poison Spirit grew anxious as he moved swiftly and stood next to the three ladies, afraid that they would do something foolish. Mo Lingqiu also didn’t dare to say anything else. Jiang Yi had only passed away a while ago; if he forced Jiang Yi’s widows to death, he would be ridiculed and cursed by others.

“Keke!”

Yi Chan looked at Poison Spirit and said, “You guys can stop us from committing suicide; however, can you really stop us from courting death? If our hearts are dead, how can we continue to live? Poison Spirit, if you are indeed our husband’s most loyal subordinate, bring us to the Purgatory Mystic Realm. Believe me! Our husband is definitely still alive!”

Looking at the determination in Yi Chan’s eyes, Poison Spirit was persuaded. He thought about all the special skills and abilities that Jiang Yi possessed and a sliver of hope suddenly sparked in him. He thought about it further, gritted his teeth, and spoke to Mo Lingqiu, “Lord Mo, please teleport us there. I will look for Young Mistress Qingchen so that she could guarantee the safety of the three madams.”

“In that case…”

Mo Shangxing sighed helplessly and said, “Since you guys are adamant and want to go, I will not stop you all. How about this? I will ask Mo Shangxing to accompany you three. However, you all have to guarantee that you will not do anything foolish.”

“Many thanks, my Lord!” Yi Chan finally breathed easy as she bowed in thanks.

Mo Lingqiu asked someone to bring Mo Shangxing over and also found two Mo Clan formidable martial artists to be escorts as well. Although he had the authority to mobilize some formidable martial artists, he didn’t wish to use this authority now. After all, the Purgatory Mystic Realm was very dangerous. Since Poison Spirit had said he was going to look for Qi Qingchen already, there was not much difference if he deployed a few people or more.

“Poison Spirit, you guys can head to the Teleportation Formation now. Shangxing, make sure to protect the three madams.”

Mo Lingqiu gestured as Mo Shangxing led the group and left. They walked to a Teleportation Formation in a side hall as they got ready to teleport to the Demon-Buster Valley.
