Chapter 1391: Jiang Yi, You Have Balls!

If it was something worth a few hundred thousand divine roots, Commander He would not have even hesitated in giving the item to Jiang Yi. However, this Pandan plant was worth five million divine roots; that was only a conservative estimate. A while back, the General Pavilion had even sent word that if it could not be sold at a high price; it should be sent to the Earth Emanations City to auction. Since that was the case, how could Commander He make the decision himself to gift the Pandan plant to Jiang Yi? He did not have the authority to do so.

Commander He almost gave himself a few slaps. He regretted offending Jiang Yi back then. However, Jiang Yi had only been a nobody back then. Even if it was someone else, that person would have handled Jiang Yi’s case as Commander He had. Commander He gritted his teeth as he rose and said, “My Lord, please hang on for a moment.”

Jiang Yi turned, looked at Commander He, and asked. “Yes? Do you have some difficulties, Commander He?”

Commander He nodded and said, “My Lord, it isn’t a matter of me not being chivalrous. I really have my difficulties this time…”

“Oh, oh!”

Jiang Yi turned, patted Commander He on the shoulder, and said, “If you have difficulties, I will leave you to sort them out. I will head back first. I am counting on you for this!”

“No… my Lord!”

Seeing that Jiang Yi was about to leave again, Commander He seemed to want to die at this moment. How was it that this person could be so thick-skinned? Commander He said helplessly, “My Lord, I do not have the authority to make a decision regarding this. Please do not be offended. Why not this? We still have other herbs that are nourishing for one’s soul spirit. I can make the decision to send you some…”

“That won’t be necessary!”

Jiang Yi’s face changed instantly as he said coldly, “Since Old He does not treat me as a friend, I will not be so thick-skinned as to take something that belongs to you! Gu Mu, let’s go!”

Jiang Yi ignored Commander He as he walked out briskly, with Gu Mu hurrying to catch up with him. Commander He gritted his teeth as he tried to follow along to sweet-talk Jiang Yi. However, Jiang Yi ignored him as he brought Gu Mu into the Divine Boat and left.

“This is going to be troublesome…”

Commander He stood on Crazed God Mountain as he watched Jiang Yi’s Divine Boat leave. He had a bad feeling about this. Jiang Yi’s temper was well-known within the Divine Eagle City: an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. This time, Commander He had made Jiang Yi lose face; it was highly likely Jiang Yi was going to seek revenge on Crazed God Castle.

Buzz!

Thinking about this, Commander He started to get anxious as he took out a special message token and reported the matter to his superiors. After his report, Commander He felt slightly more at ease. The Crazed God Castle had powerful backers. Perhaps some higher-ups might come and soothe things over with Jiang Yi.

Commander He headed back into the castle. After thinking for a while, he decided to send this Pandan plant to the Earth Emanations City after all. Although he would not make a profit out of it, at least there would no longer be any trouble. If not, if someone else had their eyes on it and caused trouble, that would be problematic.

“Report…”

After a mere two hours, an anxious voice traveled from the outside. A peak-stage God General captain had rushed in and said, “Commander He, this is bad! The Earth Emanations Army had surrounded the Crazed God Castle!”

“What?”

Commander He stood up as straight as a bullet. He had thought that Jiang Yi might seek revenge and play some tricks in the dark. He did not expect Jiang Yi to seek revenge so quickly and in bright daylight as well. He had actually deployed the Earth Emanations Army!

Buzz!

He immediately retrieved his command token and once again sent a report to his superiors. He then shouted, “Let’s head out and take a look!”

Commander He brought a group of his men outside. The exterior of the Crazed God Castle was filled with people. There were at least a thousand soldiers present. They all wore the Earth Emanations Army’s battle armor, with Commander Liu personally leading them.

“Commander Liu!”

Commander He’s face turned cold as he walked out and shouted, “What is the meaning of this? Why have you brought troops to surround the Crazed God Castle?”

Commander Liu’s face was stern as he held out a command token and said, “Apologies, Commander He, we have received a report that the Crazed God Castle is now harboring a fugitive. We have orders to investigate. Men, enter and search!”

“A fugitive?”

Commander He was boiling and almost spat out a mouthful of blood. This excuse was too fake, right? This had revenge written right all over it. Jiang Yi had not even bothered to think of a better excuse.

A thousand soldiers from the Earth Emanations Army had arrived this time; all were God Generals. Only Commander Liu was a God King. If the Crazed God Castle wanted to retaliate, they could easily take these thousand men down. However… this was the Earth Emanations Army and not the Earth Emanations Pavilion. The Earth Emanations Army represented the will of the Earth Emanations Sovereign. If anyone dared to go against the Earth Emanations Army, they either did not want to make a living in the Earth Emanations Domain anymore or had a death wish!

Commander He did not act rashly. He watched as the Earth Emanations Army rushed inside like tigers and wolves as they searched all throughout the tens of side halls. Very soon, the entire place was turned upside down. Many expensive items were destroyed. All the customers inside also ran out in droves. Some ladies were also screaming as they ran as if the world was about to end.

This Crazed God Castle was one of the top ten black market castles in the Blue Eagle Prefecture. Not only customers from the Blue Eagle Prefecture came, but some young masters and young mistresses from other cities also loved to come here to purchase treasures for entertainment and fun. Now that the Earth Emanations Army had ravaged this place, the Crazed God Castle’s business was going to be severely hit.

“I’m sorry…”

Commander He smiled apologetically as he apologized to every single customer. He could only watch as the Crazed God Castle was turned upside down; he was filled with rage. If it wasn’t the fact that these men were from the Earth Emanations Army, he would have long killed them.

After searching for two full hours and after all the customers had fled, Commander Liu finally brought the Earth Emanations Army out. Commander He suppressed his rage with difficulty as he asked coldly, “Did you find the fugitive, Commander Liu?”

“There isn’t any!”

Commander Liu answered very casually. “The fugitive had probably heard the news that we were coming and fled long ago. Or perhaps he had a very powerful ability to disguise himself and hid among the crowds of people that left? Rest assured, Commander He, that we will follow up with this matter. We will never allow any thug to wreak havoc within the Crazed God Castle. You guys are operating within our territory, and we have a responsibility to ensure your safety.”

“Very good!”

Commander He smiled as he contained his anger. He gritted his teeth and said, “I have already reported this matter. I hope that the City Lord can give the He Clan a proper explanation!”

“The City Lord?”

Commander Liu shook his head and said, “The City Lord is not aware of this matter. He is in seclusion now. We had only received a report and had acted accordingly. Of course, if the He Clan feels that our actions were not lawful, please report to the Blue Eagle Prefecture or directly to the Sovereign himself.”

After speaking, Commander Liu waved his hand and said, “Troops one, two, and three are to return with me. Troops four and five are to stay here and seal off the Crazed God Mountain. The fugitive could come back to the Crazed God Castle anytime to cause trouble. Be sure to keep a lookout for him. We cannot let this thug enter this place…”

Commander Liu brought six hundred men as they boarded a few Divine Boats and left. The remaining four hundred men stationed themselves around the Crazed God Mountain. Commander Liu’s intentions were very clear. He wanted to ‘protect’ the Crazed God Mountain; that meant that no one was going to be allowed in.

Boom!

Commander He furiously slammed his palm into the ground outside the Crazed God Castle as the ground erupted as a hole appeared, and the entire mountain shook briefly. Jiang Yi was extremely ruthless. He had sealed off the mountain this time. If this continued for a few months, the reputation and good name that the Crazed God Castle had accumulated for so long would be ruined!

For a black market castle, what mattered most was its reputation. If that disappeared, this Crazed God Castle was finished.

“Jiang Yi, you have balls!”

Commander He gritted his teeth as he shouted out loud. His eyes then looked to the north as he smiled coldly and said softly, “Young Mistress has recently come out of seclusion. If someone of her temper was to hear of such a thing, she would be furious, right? Jiang Yi, once my young mistress comes, let’s see whether you can keep up with this. Not everyone can offend the He Clan!”
