Chapter 1195: Rising to Fame after One Battle

Surprisingly, Jiang Yi no longer killed another person. Instead, he made the human army retreat. This astonished the North Thearch, Battle Thearch, Sword Thearch, Beast Thearch, Tang Shenji, and all the others. According to what they knew of Jiang Yi, he should be going after all of them in light of his victory against the Evil Thearch. At the very least, shouldn’t he be going after the Beast Thearch, the Sword Thearch, and the Demigods of the other clans?

The Black Deity and Shadow Emperor’s eyes twinkled. They wanted to send a voice transmission to Jiang Yi to ask him to kill a few more Demigods, but Ao Lu shot them a cool gaze. Neither of them dared to make another move. Among everyone present, Qian Wanguan and Zhan Wushuang understood Jiang Yi the best. They were very clear that Jiang Yi did not like killing people. More than enough people had passed away today. Jiang Yi wanted to leave the human race with some essence force. He was not really a sadistic bastard; neither was he a great demon.

“Jiang Yi, you must pay the price for what you did today!” The Battle Thearch and North Thearch exchanged a look and shouted at him. “Retreat!”

Buzz! Buzz!

Countless Heaven Fate Ships appeared at once. The human formidable martial artists had no more fighting spirit left within them. All of them headed toward the Heaven Fate Ships. Ao Lu gave no orders to chase after them. Instead, he asked the demons to go back into the sea and go home.

“Xiao Fei, undo the charm.”

Jiang Yi retrieved the Mystic Divine Palace and teleported Xiao Fei back out. He asked her to undo the charm she placed on hundreds of Heaven Monarchs so that they regained their consciousness. Xiao Fei was very obedient toward Jiang Yi. The pink glow around her body disappeared, and a wisp of smoke came out of her body, engulfing the people who were charmed once again. Very quickly, they regained their composure and ran up their Heaven Fate Ships.

There were many more injured people. Tang Shenji ordered people to bring back another Heaven Fate Ship. Within a few minutes, even those casualties were on board. The remaining people stood on the decks and looked out at Jiang Yi and Ao Lu. Their gazes were filled with mixed emotions. There were hatred, fright, uneasiness, confusion, and admiration.

One person’s power could stop the colossal battle between humans and demons!

Whether he was a hero or demon, Jiang Yi was indeed fated to have his name go down in history. Although the Mystic Thearch’s successor seemed both evil and righteous, at least his talent and battle power were unbeatable.

A twenty-five-year-old young man could use his power to suppress the human army which was made up of tens of millions of soldiers. He could even kill one of the Nine Thearchs, the Evil Thearch!

There were hundreds of Demigods among these tens of millions of people, along with ten or so seven- and eight-star formidable martial artists, and two nine-star formidable martial artists. They had with them a mysterious beauty as well, who knew different battle formations and possessed divine artifact battle armor.

Apart from the Mystic Thearch, only Jiang Yi had such an achievement. The Mystic Thearch’s successor really did not put him to shame.

Of course, the reason why Jiang Yi could win today was all because of the Mystic Divine Armor and his Fire Dragon Sword. If he did not have either of these weapons, he would not have been able to kill the Evil Thearch even with his Divinity Slayer. In fact, he surely would have been killed by the Battle Thearch.

The Fire Dragon Sword swallowed the Mystic Divine Saber. That was why it was so powerful now. If Jiang Yi only had the refined Mystic Divine Saber, the Divinity Slayer would not be as powerful as it was now. It was very likely that the Evil Thearch would not have died.

This was because his level was far too low. He was not even a Demigod. Even if he had a mighty dao pattern, he would not be able to harness all of its power without the right weapons.

As he looked at the Heaven Fate Ships disappearing into the distance like little flickers of light, Jiang Yi finally heaved a sigh of relief. He had no words. He continued to wait for all the Heaven Fate Ships to disappear. It was a full ten minutes before he finally opened his mouth. He kept vomiting blood, and his body fell down toward the sea.

“Young Master!” “Older Brother!” “Boss!” “Jiang Yi!”

Jiang Xiaonu, Xiaonu, Qian Wanguan, and the others were all shocked. Jiang Xiaonu turned into a green light and carried Jiang Yi up from the sea. Xiaonu, Qian Wanguan, Qianqian, Zhan Wushuang, and the others flew over at once. It was then that Zhan Wushuang and Qian Wanguan realized why Jiang Yi stopped killing earlier. There was a very important reason—he was gravely injured!

“Shadow Emperor!”

Ao Lu shouted out in a low voice. The Shadow Emperor was half-dead, but he still stood upright and responded, “Thearch!”

“Go personally and ensure that the human alliance army has left the Endless Deep Sea!”

Ao Lu waved his hand and caused the Shadow Emperor to disappear into thin air. Then, he gave orders to the remaining demon sovereigns, asking them to take control of their situation and take care of their casualties. Finally, he turned to Jiang Xiaonu. “Bring your young master to the Mystic Martial City. His internal organs might be seriously injured.”

Jiang Yi was already unconscious. Jiang Xiaonu, Qian Wanguan, and the others carried him toward the Mystic Martial City. Ao Lu returned as well. He was seriously injured as well, but he was lucky enough to have survived.

He turned to glance at the unconscious Jiang Yi, the corners of his lips twitching into a small smile. This brat was really low-level. He had the Mystic Divine Armor, and yet he could get so gravely injured. Yet, he could hold on for such a long time before collapsing. His willpower was quite frightening.

…

Jiang Yi slept for a total of five days and five nights. News of the battle spread throughout the East Imperial Continent in just three days. Yet, even though the news of the battle spread throughout the Stellarsky Domain, the Nine Thearch Clans made sure that they twisted some facts before allowing the story to get out.

The human army was powerful. It killed tens of thousands of demons and seriously injured Ao Lu, the mastermind behind the death of billions of human civilians. Most of the demon sovereigns were also seriously injured.

Just before the demons were wiped out, Jiang Yi—the betrayer of humans—appeared. He helped the demons and attacked the human formidable martial artists, killing even the Evil Thearch—one of the Nine Thearchs. He turned the tables against the humans and forced them to retreat.

The millions and billions of people in the East Imperial Continent had been waiting for news of the humans’ victory over the demons, and yet this was the ending!

The entire continent was agitated. They would not say anything if the humans lost because the demons were far too strong. However, the reason they lost was that there was a traitor among the humans. Everyone was angry with Jiang Yi. Everyone was cursing him under their breath.

Betrayer, demon, despicable man, low-life… devil…

They called Jiang Yi all sorts of names. Countless cities in the East Imperial Continent were cussing at Jiang Yi. There were a few who even created statues of Jiang Yi and brought them to the towns so that people could spit at and hit them.

The Evil Emperor became the first-generation Evil Thearch. He sent out a notice informing everyone that the She Clan would take Jiang Yi as its arch-nemesis. Even if every single one of the She Clan’s members died in battle, they would try their hardest to kill Jiang Yi.

Xing Mengwan rose to fame after one battle. The most beautiful woman in the world was now able to emerge from the waters and live among the humans. Xing Mengwan had displayed her great prowess and battle powers back at the Endless Deep Sea. She instantly became the goddess of many men’s hearts. She was way more popular than Yi Chan or Yin Ruobing ever was.

In fact, even Yin Ruobing and Yin Ruobing were being cursed at now. The two of them clung onto Jiang Yi. Yin Ruobing became Jiang Yi’s woman. The jealous young masters left behind began to insult her, saying that she had fallen to the depths and become a demon and that she was no longer the beautiful flower fairy she once was.

The Yi Clan did not go out to battle this time, and Yi Chan was following Jiang Yi all around. The Yi Clan’s reputation suffered as a result.

The Buddha Thearch, Buddha Emperor, and the other civilians were still missing. Rumors began to spread that the Yi Clan had already colluded with Jiang Yi and the demons. It was said that the Yi Clan was helping them out behind the scenes. Countless people suggested that the remaining clans ganged up to destroy the Yi Clan.

The Sonar Thearch managed to escape just in time. News that the Chen Clan migrated to the Snow Region spread throughout the continent. The Sonar Thearch and Chen Clan became notorious as well. The Zhan Clan took the chance to spread the news about Jiang Yi becoming the Sonar Thearch’s disciple. The Chen Clan’s name got dragged through the mud. They had become traitors as well.

The Zhan Clan also announced that Zhan Wushuang was no longer part of the Zhan Wushuang. From that day on, he was to be recognized as one of the traitors. He would never be allowed back into the clan, and if he ever dared to show his face in the East Imperial Continent, he would be killed for sure.

In a blink of an eye, everybody connected to Jiang Yi became notorious. They were noted down in the history books as people who should be cursed and spat on by the generations to come.
